Oonstantino's Attempt to Kill
Himself Likely to Prove Futile
But His Pretty Little Sweetheart
Lies Cold in Death.

Giuseppe Constantine. the nineteen
year-old bootblack, who shot and killed
his ffteen-year-old nancee, Carmela
Belasi. and then shot and wounded him
self ut 1888 Elizabeth street, last evening.
Is In st. Nincents Hospital this morning,
with good prospects of recovery.
The bullet passed in at the lower part
OF his throat and ranged upward. The
surgeons have not been able to find It,,
and they think it quite likely that 1t
entered his mouth and he spat 1t out.
The bullet that struck Carmela, how
ever. pierced her heart and killed her
practically at once, although she had the
paroxysmal energy to scream, leap from
the bed upon which she was lying. and
run into the next room, where she fell
to the floor.
Inc dead girl lay in a white palled
ice-box this morning. the centre Of a
singular mixture of religious and bar
barlc splendor. The walls and windows
were entirely covered by banners Of
white cloth. covered with fantastic fig
ures Gu. out of tinsel and tinted paper.
The only light in the room was afforded
by two silt candelabra at either end Of
candles.
An enormous crowd Of Italians filled
the street. the halls, the stairway and
the dea chamber, all pushing and
pulling for view Of the girls face and
raising all manner of cries Indicative of
pity and Indignation.
Last night just after he committed the
crime and was being carried unconscious
from the house, Constantine would have
been lynched II 1t had not been for the
active efforts of the police.
Constantine seems to have had no
motive other than dependency caused
by the hard times. He was engaged to
Carmela, and was to have married her
next Christmas. He went on a visit to
Italy short time ago and returned
without funds, only to find the boot
backing business at a low ebb. He was
with Carmela all of yesterday afternoon
While her family went to the funeral.
He seemed good-tempered enough, and II
was wholly without warning that at
about 6 o'clock. while Carmela was lying
upon her bed asleep and her grandfather,
Nincenzo Romantic, was moving about
the adjoining room. Constantine drew a
3s-calibre revolver and discharged 1t into
the girls left breast. He then fired at
himself without effect and again with
better aim.
The old grandfathe is held as a wit.

For two weeks the Plunging Petrol, a
big. three-masted schooner, had ploughed
its way through the placid waters OF the
Pacific with a sameness that was exas-
pelating. Since leaving port nothing
not even a threatened storm or lively
sale-had broken the monotony.
The ship was bound for Rio. Brazil
with a cargo OF wheat, and l was her

but who proved. In my case at least, to
be exactly the opposite. for ! soon found
him genial. hearty-good fellow. He was
strict with his men, but not tyrannical.
and he was a good story-teller
But monotony was not to last us all
through the voyage. There was soon
a singular and sinister change.

OF the third week. sailor named Bates
was placed in irons for striking a mess

his arm. The punishment was undoubt-

But when the unfortunate man was
found dead the next morning, things

the atmosphere OF the forecastle where
he had been confined was odorous with
the fumes of chloroform. ] called the
CAPTAINS attention to this, but he
thought must be mistaken and
would not be convinced, even when the
boatswaln and one of the mates argued
on my side. He declared that there was
none of the drug on board and never
had been. And so 1t happened that poor
Bates was buried in the deep sea at the
very hour at which he was to have been
liberated.

when the first mate went on deck to
relieve his fellow-officer, the latter had
dIsappeared and could not be found.

to mind until the dreadful cry Of Man
overboard!" was sounded and hands
piped on deck. A boat containing the
first mate and four men was lowered at
once. the ship was brought about, and
two hours were spent In frultless search.
In the mean time every accessible nook
in the ship. which was lacking back
and forth in the locality. was inspected
with like results. At last the searching
party was taken on board and the ship
resumed Its course.
The captain now took turns at the
watch with the mate, and everything
ran smoothly till the following night, or
rather the next morning-four bells of
the first watch. Then, when he turned
out to relieve the mate. that officer could
not be found. The same efforts were
made to find the missing man, and with
the same results as on the previous
night. and the captain was nearly fran
tic. He was not only deeply grieved al
the death of his two officers, but
greatly shocked and mystified at
the strange manner OF their disappear
