Love to Her.

Count Dominica de Companasso, OF
No. eco Palisade avenue, Jersey City,
was taken to Trenton to-day to serve
three years In prison for a too violent
expression OF a seething, %scorching'
blistering love.
His greatest offense was In loving the
wrong girl and In importing Tuscan
methods Of getting her. But Palisade
venue 10 a long way from Tuscany,
and Miss Maria Daneri did not under
stand that II the chosen bride OF a
nobleman decline the offer OF marriage,
she has TO be kidnapped, her parents
slain and herself carried to the tall
mountains by black brigands,
No. Maria did not understand the
bandit code, and she told the police that
the Count had been writing her, first
love letters, hen letters OF severe
threats.
The Count had been a teacher OF Ian.
guages. Neighbors had heard vague
stories Of him having been depleted Of
his italian estates by the Government
and OF his exile for political reasons. 1t
was said also that he had had a brush
or TWO with a few Black Hand, Maha,
Comora and other Italian bands, and
found It convenient to live in America.
Maria lived at No, All PalIsade ave-
nue., and as she was a talented miss her
parents sent her to De Companasso to
learn a Few extra languages, The re-
suit was that she won, internationally,
his heart. and when his attentions be-
came too asslduous she stopped learning
languages,
Then the count commenced address
Ing letters OF a most passionate nature,
She did not reply. She laughed, Then
came the letters Of anger in which he
told her OF the many things which
would happen TO her and her family
II she did o flee with him as his
bride, Miss Daneri consulted her par
ents and the police were called in.
The professor Of languages was ar
rested and In court he pleaded guilty TO
the Indictment and was sentenced to
three years In prison. 1t was the most
sentence gwen for such an Of
Tense in mary years, but It was under
stood that the court accepted Compa-
mood as dangerous to the girl
II he were at liberty, and that the best
thing wuld be 10 put him where ne
could do no harm.
