A Most Romantic Adventure
The story goes that q young Lieutenant
in the Italian army, the Count Bettini,
q handsome young fellow only 3 years
of age, had last winter sent = bullet
through his heart on the doorstep Of the
American lady's residence. a letter
was found on him in which he declared
that he had been driven to this rash
act by the refusal Of the beautiful young
American TO accept the heart, band and
broken down title which he had offered
her. 1t seems that Miss Aysr had only
seen this titled sutton four times and
bad not discovered that the hame she
had kindled in the heart Of the Italian
was Of 50 violent nature. Bettini had
taken the precaution TO warn her OF the
extremity to which her GOODNESS WAS
driving him and the letter was accom-.
panied by three photographs illustrat-
ing the probable appearance OF the
writer after he had made the acquaini-
auce of the contents Of u Colts revolver.
