is a sister of the better-known lyric
soprano of the same name. A year or
two ago Nine. Giachetti-Bett-Carus
was reported to have eloped with her
chauffeur.
Now the Florentine merchant, Betti,
is suing her for divorce and names
Caruso. Nine. Caruso, as she is still
generally known, has written a letter
to the press in which she states
that she endeavored to seek divorce
from Betti ten years ago, but he re-
fused his consent. 1t was then that
she went to live with the tenor Since
that time she declares she has lived
with Caruso as his wife, and has had
two children by him.
She often saw Betti, who never
seemed to resent the fact of her alli-
ance nor care one way or the other.
She denies having eloped with the
penniless at Mont Charles on the very
spot where they first met and where
he persuaded her to forsake her ar
tistic career for his love.
Nine. Betti deplores her unhappy
married life with both men, whom she
accuses of having failed to contribute
to her support, although she admits
that Caruso gives her 800 a month
a mere pittance, she says, considering
that he draws the highest salary Of
any tenor on earth.
The famous trial will be held In
Florence within the next few weeks,
and the star witness will be Caruso.

 KEEPS ON WINNING

Jack O'NeilI of Philadelphia failed to show up for his bout with Davy Ryan of this city in Port Chester last even ing. Perhaps the Quaker had heard of the fame of the local blacksmith and was attacked with cold feet. Not to disappoint the fans, many of whom were Bridgeporters, the promoters put on Jack Card of Jersey City. The bout went the limit 10 rounds while Ryan had the best of the argument, his op- ponent proved a tough customer. DaVy says he would have sent his man to the dreamers if the bout had lasted at least two rounds more, as he was groggy when the final round came to an end.
 In the preliminary bout Paddy Mack of this city laid a pretty one across Morris Screnson's map in the first round of what was to be a six round encounter. Sorenson is a Port Ches- ter youth.
