A COUNTESS REVENGE.
Denthbcd and Dishgured Her
for Life.

A tragic story of feminine revenge
comes from Vienna. The count and
countess Napodano lived happily to-
gether until the count fell in love with
The daughter of the local doctor, Con-
cctto Deyajo by name, charming
young girl of IS years. The count de-
serted his wife and eloped with Con-
cetta Deyajo. The Countess Napodano
obtained divorce from her husband,
who then married Concetta. Two years
later Count Napodono and Countess
Concetta returned TO Matuggacci. The
former Countess Napodano was now
ON her deathbed. She sent a message
to the Countess Concetta that she would
like to see her before she died. The
countess, wishing to humor the wishes
of the dying woman, went TO see her.
The invalid asked her to stoop and kiss
her. As the fresh young face of her
rival came near her own the dying
woman raised herself, and by an almost
superhuman effort bit piece clean out
Of Concetta's cheek and mouth, then
fell back dead, with a contented smile
on her features. Concetta was dis
figured for life, and her husband, the
tickle count. left her for a new love.

ten shillings in London Saturday,
being quoted at e35 los, Large guam
titles were bought at this price on the
prospect of a further rise, in conse-
quence of the unexpected resumption
of hostilities in the Philippines and the
belief that the military operations will
drive the natives from the fields and
that the worlds supply will be prac-
tically cut off. The stock of hemp in

DID NOT DREAD DEATH.
Suicide Became Moral Epidemic In
the Later Days of the Ro-
man Empire.

Among the cultivated men and wom-
en- of the later Roman empire suicide
became sort of moral epidemic. says
the London Spectator. The fashionable
Stole doctrines, acting on race which
had begun to degenerate and decline
and lose its grip on life, killed the dread
Of death Men left the world for "a
whim, "only on the thought to do the
same thing over and over again" The
Christian doctrine that self-slaughter
is sin did not affect them, and the no.
tion that there was something base in
quitting ones post was not yet born.
Dryden, in one of his dramas, contrasts
finely the feeling about suicide of the
ancient and modern world The Rom
ans, he says, might discharge their
souls" and give them leave to enter the
other world. But we, like sentries, are
compelled TO stand meath starless
skies and wait the appointed hour"
DR.. Goodhardt, speaking of the dread
Of death, says: 81 am never tired of
saying, because ! am sure IL is as true
as it is comforting, although in oppo-
sition to the general belief, that death
has no terrors for the sick man. To
the living and healthy man it is quite
otherwise, but the sick man upon whom
death lays his hand pales gently and
hnperceptibly out of life"

BRAVE JAPANESE WOMEN.
How Count Ito's wife Saved His
Life During Rebellion
Many Years Ago.

A japanese lady is noted Cor her
courage, her strength Of mind and her
sclf-possessiou. 1t is wonderful to
think what physical trials and dangers
these fragile little creatures will under
go in an emergency. The late prime
ministers life was saved 10y the cour-
age and presence of mind of his wife.
Many years ago, when quite a young
man. during rebellion, Count Ito was
hiding from his enemies, who, having
tracked him 10 his house send band
of "soshis' to assassinate him. On
hearing his enemies approaching, and
trapped like a rat in its hole, the count
drew his sword and prepared to die,
hut the countess whispered "Do not
die; there is hope still" and, removing
the "hiDatchi," or fire box, and lifting
up the mats and the planks beneath, she
induced her husband to conceal himself
in the hollow space which exists under
the floor of all japanese houses. The
murderers broke into the room just as
the fire box had been replaced and de-
manded of the countess their victim.
In vain they threatened and cruelty i'll
treated her, dragging her about the
room by her long black hair. But il
was of no avail; they could not shake
her resolute fidelity. Thanks to her
courage Count Ito escaped and has
lived to give TO his country new con-
stitution.

INGRATITUDE AND MURDER.
How an migrate Lnid the Plans which
Resulted In the killing of
His Friend.

Adjective told story few evenings
ago which illustrates the ingratitude of
criminals. The migrate, says IA Chica-
go exchange, was one of the principals
in the Niece murder, which was com
mitted a little over year ago. His
name was W. j. Willows, well appear
ing youth, but the man who decoyed
the aged creamery agent into the In.
diana avenue apartment building where
Jacks killed him. Willows had been in
trouble" before that, and the man who
came to the front" for him was the
keeper ola lunch counter near the Grim
inal Court building. The mans wife
had known Willows in his days of re-
spectability in a small Michigan town.
She urged her husband to do what he
could for him, and, with money for at
torney's fees and few we'll placed
words of commentator, Willows was
helped to get out of the scrape. The
lunch-counter man was a close personal
friend of the old man Niece, and liked
him much. He talked to Willows about
him in their short acquaintanceship in
the days of Willows trouble, and the
lunch-counter man told his acquaint-
ance how much this friend had done
for him, yet, while in Jail, Willows met
Jacks and the two of them formed the
plan of robbery which led to McGee's
murder. The lunch-counter man lost
his best friend through needless and
useless murder and Willows earned a
sentence IN the Dpnitputiary
