AND HE GOT AWAY WITH TT. A clever swindler 'whe has vic- timized a number of Connecticut peo- Dle -out of various sums recently used this city as the base of oné of of his latest tricks. The stranger, who is glib of tongun, arrived here the latter part of the week and approached Luke Meehan, from whom he rented a vacant store. He then sought out his other victim, a Waterbury girl, who he succeeded in interesting in his project, a millinery store in this city. The girl was to receive a salary of $16 weekly for managing the store. The crook, how- ever, needed $100 to complete plans, and so informed his new manager. The girl turned all the money si: had, $200, over to him, and this was the last she saw of her “employer.” 1t is reported that the state..police havt been called into the case. It is likely that the postal authorities will take a hand in the matter for using the mails to defraud if the culprit is captured.
