A ROMAN RESURRECTION"
The great event oft year in Roman

The great event Of this year in Roman
aristocratic society is the "resurrec-
tion," as they call it in Rome, of Prince
Maffeo Sciarra. Every one knows how
this descendant of the illustrious
ColoDna and Barberini families fell from
his high estate. He was the son oi
modern times Instead of quietly living,
as in good old days, with the millions
coming from his immense estates, he
gave away to all the passions of these
rapid days-politics, speculation, pleas
ure. Into them he threw all his for
tune, working hard, improving the
cultivation of his lands, surrounding
his ancient and historic palace with a
complete new quarter, becoming in
Parliament one of the most important
members of the liberal party, and
founding the largest and most auth
oritative Italian paper, La Iribuna. In
the general ruin which swept over the
Borghese, the Piombino and lesser
aristocratic families, Don Maffeo Sciar-
ra, who had risked more than the others,
was the first to fall, and was stripped of
everything.
When at the end of his resources he
fell back on his splendid and valuable
gallery of pictures, intending to sell
abroad some of them to pay his credit
ors. The government unearthed an old
papal law, which considered galleries
of ancient works of art as national prop
erty, and forbade any part being taken
out of the country. As it is we'll known,
Prince Sciarra secretely sold four OF MS
most valuable paintings, among which
was the famous violin Player" of
Raphael. The Prince, guilty OF having
stolen from himself, was condemned 10
prison and was fined half million
francs, but lately the decision was over
thrown by the Supreme Court. Rumor
has it that since then the whole velu-
able and unique collection has been dis
posed of to Baron Hirsch, so well
known in England as friend OF the
Prince of Wales.
Now the noble Prince, who for years
has not been seen in Rome, except now
and then crossing the town in humble
cab, has appeared in the Corso driving
in his dog cart. At the same time it is
known that he las begun to pay his
creditors, has recommended the inter-
rupted buildings on his property, and
in the next elections will run again fer
Parliament. An ardent desire of Prince
Sciarra is to reacquire the Tribatna, but
Commentators Luzzatti, who bought
| it from him, knows too we'll its value
and power to surrender 1t.
What is really surprising to all his
| friends is that after so many vicissltudes
and troubles Don Maffeo still remains
gay, calm and energetic as in the years
gone by. Prince Sciarra is q bachelor,
is very little more than forty years OF
age and is full of life. She who mar
ries him will have one of the highest
positions in the Roman aristocracy.
She will become Princess di Carbogna-
no, Duchess di Bassanello, Marchioness
di Corresso, Countess di Palazzuolo,
Baroness di Santo Stefano, &c.
