ROMANCE AND TRAGEDY.
Love, jealousy, and Murder in Con
fession Of a Fugitive from Italy.

Love, jealousy, ana Muro6r IN a COn-
fession Of Fugitive from Italy.
From the Nep York Sun.
BOSTON, Oct. 5.-A romance in which
love, jealousy, and murder played promi-
nent part was unearthed at the North End
to-day. The crime and the preceding chap
ters were recorded in sunny Italy. The
murderer fed to this country, and with the
heavy load of guilt on his conscience was
unable to find the peace he sought. To-day
the murderer was betrayed by a country
man, and after hard mental struggle con-
fessed his guilt. The murderer's name is
Giovanni b. Dondira. His victims name
was Giovanni z. Dondira. They lived at
Sara, eighteen miles out of Genoa. Giovanni
E. was married to a dark-eyed lass who, al
though the mother of seven children, was
not averse to liaison with handsome lad
of 81 years, whose name was the same as
that of her husband, with the exception of
The middle initial. The bliss of the lovers
continued for some time before the bus
band began to suspect the wife's infldelity.
The woman noted the suspicion at once and
gave her lover the cold shoulder. He was
madly infatuated with her, and her now
seeming indifference goaded him on but all
of his entreaties were without avail. She
was firm i'll the new determination she had
taken.
in the morning the man, armed with a
keen edged stiletto, went to the house of her
who melted his passion, and without further
entreaties struck her in the breast, making
q painful but not fatal wound. The hus-
band, hearing his wifes screams, jumped
from the tree in which he had been hiding
in order 10 witness the scene between them,
and prevented the mad lover from doing
further injury, but it was at the cost of his
own life that he interfered. The younger
man gave him three deep stabs in the
breast, piercing the heart, and fed For
forty-two days he kept in hiding in Italy.
At last he reached the shore and secured
passage on a sailing vessel bound for New
York. On Aug. ne arrived in New York,
and, unable to find work there, he came
here on Sept. is. But the story of his crime
became known here among the Italians
An emigrant brought the story, and one
Of Giovanni's countrymen, afraid to have a
murderer near him, informed the police.
The man, when brought into the station,
was pitiful sight. He trembled violently,
his eyes stared, and great beads OF perspira-
ton stood on every poor in his body. He
was completely unnamed. The services
Of physician were necessary before he
was in q condition TO talk. Then he con-
fessed

He was the toughest and most energetic of

furnished so many examples of this particu-
lar animal. knew the prince when was
boy. relative, who was pleased to en-
terrain me occasionally. had an adjoining
farm TO his highness. Castle Dyck, where
the prince passed a part of his time, had an
immense attendant estate, and its furniture
and interior concomitantS display sufficient
RICHNESS to cause the establishment of regu-
lar visiting days. When | first went to
the castle second story window in the left
wing was noticeable by being securely
closed. The reason given was that within
the room the prince had killed his wife and
no one had entered it since. Several years
later, upon another visit, found the window
wide open. AS l sauntered through the
picture galleries the prince approached me
and said: ''You shall see a great curiosity
to-day, the room where l killed my wife,
accidentally, of course. | have kept it closed
for ten years, but | am tired of seeing peo-
pie stand in the park and gaze at the shut
tiers and whispering horrible tales. Three
hours ago gave orders to air the room and
keep it open. Let us step in. 1t is still in
the same condition as the princess left it. :"
We entered the apartment, which is just off
the picture gallery, and were greeted by
terrific odor and scene of wreckage. The
blue silken curtains hung in shreds from
the vii dows. and the silk tapestry of the
walls were invisible beneath its dust. In
one corner, half pushed aside, stood an elab-
crate bronze bed with blue baldaquin.
Its drapery was torn on one side, and the
condition of the linen and bed clothes indi-
Gated absolute neglect since it had been
suddenly vacated years before. Before the
bed the white velvet carpet was stained with
a brownish color-the blood of the murdered
woman. The prince took from an open
secretoire, the porte epee of a Prussian Of
ficer's saber, the silken cord dangling from
the hilt, and as he extended it toward me
with trembling hands, he murmured, II
tore this from the mouth of my bloodhound;
it is the first time have touched it since
that day. With my hounds had been fol-
lowing a young officer, who had ruined my
wife. The dog sprang at the man, who
was on horseback, and tore off this silver
cord. The next moment a bullet crashed
into the animals brain, and he fell to the
ground. The officer made good his escape
and entered the Turkish service" 1t seems
to be a wise compensation that causes the
husband to clt his throat in the same room
where he stabbed his guilty wife to death.
