now Of St. Louis, former Pittsburg rep
resentatIve of one Of Italy's largest wine
houses, has learned Of his wife's constant
search for him. and. writing to DIR. Nardyz
Of this city in beartless humor asks that
my sticking plaster be returned to her
aristocratic parents, for which will pay

Lenzo's life, like his marriage, has been
one Of romance. He is son of a wealthy
wine merchant in Italy, and for five years
has been an American agent. He speaks
English and French as fluently as his native
tongue. and is handsome, dashing and witty
A year ago he went to Europe. he visited
Paris, where he entered the widest life Of
that city. He had lots of money and spent
it as freely as the wealthiest. His hotel was
the most expensive and his wine bills as
large in a week as most mems salaries are in
year. One morning after a nights de-
bauchery he found himself without money.
He could have got more by sending home.
but his wine bills were collected daily. He
explained the situation to the clerk. and
the latter said he would speak to the pro-
prietor.
Meantime young Lenzo continued his
| daily routine In the evening be met the
| society people that gather in Paris hotels,
aud without thought Of his debts entered
into the enjoyment with his usual zeal.
| Among the ladies he met was Miss
| Lemoyne. Her home was in Paris and she
was the guest or an American lady, who
was stopping at the hotel and with whom
Lenzo was acquainted. Miss Lemoyne was
| as vivacious as LenZo was bright and witty,
and in an hours time they were as well ac-
| quainted as friends of lifetime Miss
Lemoyne saved Lenzo from expulsion from
| his hotel by paying his wine bill for him.
| The friendship thus begun ripened into love.
1t took il just two days to ripen, and on the
third, in the Paris newspapers it was
stated that popular Miss Lemoyne and the
son of the Italian wine merchant, Frank
Lenzo, had set sail on an American steam
ship 1t was supposed that they had gone
| away to get married. A note was left for
the lady's parents, and that was all that
could be found TO indicate their destination.
The young couple reached New York in
the latter part of September. They were
married and stayed a week in the metropo-
| lis. Lenzo was able to get money from men
acquainted with his fathers business house.
| He renewed his bohemian ways after firing
of his wife. and one day when they were out
walking together he suddenly turned a cor
| ner and left her. She followed, but could
not find him. Her husband had given her
$780, and she has kept up the search ever
| since.
Last Monday she came to Pittsburg. She
had heard her husband speak of DR.. Nardyz
aud went to consult him. A few days be-
fore Leuzo had called on his old friend, told
him about his European trip-with the ex-
ception of the love experience-and then
started farther west. DIR. Nardyz thought
Lenzo had acted strangely, and the visit
from the young bride revealed the cause
She was almost heartbroken, for she
thought her husband had met with some
accident.
When told the truth her grief turned to
the deepest anger, love broke into wild fury,
and the wronged woman vowed vengeance
with the most bitterly expressed hatred.
She has some money yet, and will stay in
Pittsburg for few days. believing that her
husband will return. II he does not she
| says she will sell her diamonds and return
| to her Paris home.
The letters from Lenzo were received by
DR.. Nardyz to-day. 1t is dated st. Louis,
and from its wording Lenzo must have
heard that his wife is in Pittsburg. He
wants her sent home, and says il DIR. Mar
dyz will pay the transportation, the money
will be refunded to him.
