According to this information, the count
is not an Italian nObleman, but an Aus
TRAN, who practiced medicine for several
years in New York with his brother
On the death Of the brother, it was
said he contracted a common law mar
rage with his sister-in-laW, but he
claimed that four years ago he effected
a settlement with her and that she re-
turned to Austria. 1t also is alleged
that in the counts residence in New
York he was twice tried, once for selling
medicine illegally, and once for malprac-
tice, but was acquitted.
The wedding was set for yesterday and
d license had been obtained. According
70 Miss Garwood the marriage was not
broken off on account Of the interven-
ton of her sister, but by the count him
self when he received a letter from a
brother in Austria, who had learned of
the prospective union, saying that his
sister-in-law claimed that the bond be-
tween herself and the count had not
been annulled.
Miss GarwOOd says that the count was
astounded a this contention and has now
gone to Italy TO obtain from his father
proof of the settlement with the woman.
Miss GarwOod says she regards the
interference Of her relatives in the mat
ter as gTatuitOus.

CLEMINSON HAD
QUITE A STRING
Chicago Man Suspected of
Numbering His Wife Is a
''Lady Killer

Chicago, June 4-There was a dramatic
scene IN the Sheffield avenue police sta
ton today, when Miss Anna Kolb was
taken TO the cell occupied by DR.. Haldane
CleminsOn, alleged by the police to have
slain his wife. 1t was from Miss Kolb
that the police obtained the names OF
number OF women with whom Dr. Clemin-
son is alleged to have been on friendly
terms. Miss KOlb admitted she had been
a patient under Cleminson at the Chicago
Union hospital. and that he hadNpaid con-
siderable attention to her.
Upon being taken to the physicians
cell, Miss KOlb screamed Historically. She
was left there for ten minutes. with a de-
tective nearby. What the conversation
between the two was about the police re-
fused to make public, but 1t was learned
that their talk terminated with a second
series of screams by Miss KOlb and she
was led away.
Other Women Involved.
Captain Kane stated that Miss Kolb,
while of value in the investigation into
the case, was not the woman most
wanted.
Doctor" said Miss Kolb. in a low but
agitated voice, tell the police here the
names Of the wOmen-tell the names of
all of them"
DR.. CIeminson, staggering slightly,
clutched the bars of his cell and replied.
angrily:
me closer you Keep your nDukH SMUT
young woman, the better 1t will be for
both you and me-"
1t was at this reply that the visitor
screamed d second time, and was led
away.
The coroner's inquiry into the death of
Mrs. Cleminson was called today, but was
postponed until June IS without the hear
ing of any witnesses.
Aged Father With Prisoner,
DR.. CleminsOn was taken to the court
room in a patrol wagon. He was pale
and the tense lines Of his somewhat ef-
Terminate face showed the strain under
which he has been laboring since his ar
rest. His father, Isaiah Cleminson, sat
beside him during the few moments of
the proceedings and accompanied him
back to his cell.
The continuance Of the inquiry was ne
cessitated by the work of the experts
who are making a chemical analysis of
Mrs. CleminsOn's stomach.

INTEREST IN THE MATCH

San Francisco, Oct. 11-Johnson
and ketchel are we'll along in their
training now. and it is reasonable TO
suppose that both Of them will land
in the ring in as good condition as
conscientious preparation will per-
NIT. The public has kept close tab
on both men at their respective camps
and while the championship candi-
dates have not hewed to the line In
everything they have done. it is felt
they have both kept in view of the
necessity Of being at their best when
they toe the scratch at Coffroth's

An interesting thing about the work
is that johnson had been trying to
get down to a lower weight than he
has fought at for years. while Ketchel
has been trying to build up a bigger
notch than usual. According to all
accounts each man has made his
point. Johnson says he will scale a
pound or two over the 1870 pound mark
next Saturday. Ketchel expects to
tip the beam at IFS pounds or there.

put away until next fall when the az

1t is amusing to watch persons
dodge step ladders which are stretch
ed across the sidewalk on Main street
for the purpose Of taking down the

EGGS ARE SOARING
Predicted They Will Fly High
Enough to Hit the 35
Cent Mark.
ARE 80 CENTS DOZEN NOW

BY the latter part of the week, it was
declared by local grocer this morn
ing. eggs will be selling at 80 cents :,
dozen, and it was estimated that the
price would steadily climb then until
the 80 cent mark would soon be reach
ed. Eggs are at present selling for
% cents dozen. and even now the
price is considerably higher than II
has been at this season for years. At
this time last year hen fruit sold fo.'
IS and 20 cents a dozen.
This unusual raise in price is due to
the fact that the hens are moulting and
the further and more convincing fact
that the farmers realize they can get
an exorbitant price just as readily as 4
reasonable one. You can depend up
on it, said the grocer, in speaking OF
the matter, anything that comes off Of
the farm bears a price that cannot be
reached by persons even in moderate
circumstances.
