Count Cini, an Italian nobleman,
granddaughter of the late Pope Leo, Will
in the spring lead to the altar i'll London
Miss Elizabeth Howe of Pittsburg, one
of the wealthiest of the city,s wealthy
young women. Some months ago this
wedding was announced, but for some
reason not then explained, it did not take
place, the understanding being that all
was off. Now it has been announced
again, and gossips are busy. The Pitts
burg girl out of her vast estate has
agreed to pay all the debts of the count,
providing they do not run over $4,000,
and to guarantee him $4,000 year for
life. About a month ago there was
bitter setto when the count came to
Pittsburg. Like others of the nobility
coming here for rich wife, Count CiDj
was broke and heavily in debt. He ask
ed that $4,000 be handed to him with
which to settle his debts and also that
he be given $4,000 per year for life.
This the Pittsburg girl and her relatives
refused to think of, and III Il rage Count
Cini went to Canada. Lately, however,
another statement was issued, and the
count decided that he might worry along
with his creditors on $4,000 in hand
and life annuity of $4,000. This was
agreed to and they will wed in London.

WAR FOR THE WEEK.
INSTRUMENTATION FROM THE
FAR EAST.
Great Port Arthur Fortress Remains
Unconquered = Sapping and Mining
Now Taking Place of Direct Assaults
-Stocsse1 Believed to BE IN D1sIress'

The lack of information from Jap
anese sources concerning conditions at
Port Arthur is sufficient evidence that
the great fortresses are stlll uIcoIl-
ouerable and that further sapplng
and mining by the besiegers has taken
the place of direct assaults. There
have been neither official nor SEMI
official statements from TOXIC, nor
censored dispatches from General
Nogi's headquarters, which bring H.
formation down later than Nov. Z. AT
that time the Japanese were retaining
the Keekwan mOat, but were SuHerlhS
heavily from Russian fire.
On the other hand, it is clear that IL
General Stoessel had had any success
in driving the japanese out OF posi-
lions they won in attacks at the END
of October we would have heard of il,
The arrival of the Russian torpedo
boat destroyer Rastoropny at Chefoo
was the event of the week, but, what
ever dispatches it may have brought,
the authorities at st. Petersburg have
not seen fit to make public any con-
tanning facts of later date than Nov. 2
The Rastoropny was sunk by the
Russians themselves, and such sac
rifice of a valuable vessel justified the
inference that it's mission had been
one of the gravest Importance. 1t was
natural to think that General Stoessel
was asking the Car for permission to
surrender. At st. Petersburg it is in
sisted, however, that General Stoessel

FIRE DESTROYS FREIGHTER.

Steamer Catches Fire on Long Island
Sound and Explosion Then Wrecks.
While bound down Long Island sound
on one of her regular passages from New
York City and New London, Conn, the
big freight steamer Mohawk of the Cen
trail Vermont railroad took fire off Hor-
tons Point, L. l., and was burned to the
waters edge. Her crew, except the
Waterman, was rescued by passing
steamship. The Mohawk left New York
with full cargo Of general merchandise
and twenty-five persons on board. AS
the boat passed Horizons Point the light
house keeper saw flames breaking out.
A few minutes later she was wrapped in
their embrace. The Fall River line
steamer Boston, which had followed the
Mohawk down the sound, went to the
rescue of the crew. A few moments after
the Boston had resumed her interrupted
voyage there came the sound of heavy
explosion and mass of blazing debris,
accompanied by a burst Of flames, shot
up from the center of the abandoned
freighter

John Vancise, living on the lake shore
ten miles west of Cleveland, chung to the
slippery rocks at the foot of an eighty
foot cliff all night the other night with
the dead body of his daughter in his
arms to prevent the waves washing the
corpse out into Lake Erie. While at
tempting to extinguish fire which was
burning the grass around their home
Miss Vancise fell over the eighty-foot
cliff to the rocks beneath. Her shrek at
tracted the attention of her father, who
was fighting the fire nearby, and he
jumped over the bluff after her. his
life was saved by missing the rocks and
striking the water He searched through
the rocks in the darkness until he found
the body of his daughter. He was I'M
able to move it up the face of the steep
cliff, and fearing that the waves would
carry it out into the lake he held it In
his arms all night. In the morning he
was successful in attracting the atten-

FIRE FAILS TO HIDE CRIME.
Finding of Body in Ruins of Shanty
Gives Coroner Work.

Finding of Body in Ruins of Shanty
Gives Coroner Work.
The finding of the body of John h.
Perkins in a strip of lonely woods one
mile south of Granger, Ind, and the Pc
culiar circumstances surrounding ms
death suggest murder mystery. Inc
remains were discovered under the char
red ruins of a shanty and were i'll nor
rible condition, the top Of the head being
crushed in and the body burned almost
to a crisp. When the coroner reached
the clearing where once stood the shanty
nothing remained except the smolderlng
timber, in the center of which lay the
body, the head thrown back and the
arms extended. The supposed murdered
man was 60 years old. Several years
ago he lived in South Bend and at that
time it is known that he had considera-
BILE money. Those who hold to the MUIR
der theory think Perkins was attacked
during the night and that he was killed
before he could defend himself. Then,
to conceal the crime, the body was put
in the shanty and a fire started.

Young Man Is Burned.
Three fatalities followed each other
in quick succession in the country near

first occurred when James Raleigh at

thrown upon a picket fance, one of the
pickets penetrating her head to the base

socket. Her body was found hanging
on the fence in that condition an hour
