TARNOWSKI OBTAINED
LUXURIES


Rome, Jan. 26-Eyen in prison the
Countess Maria TaGnowska, who is
serving sentence for having prompt
ed the assassination of Count Kam-
IarowsM, still retains those powers
lof fascination which gained for her
1.-The title of the enchantress
According TO the Italian laws, a
prisoner must serve sentence in a
/ penitentiary located ri least one hum
dred miles from the spot where the
crime was committed and the
| Countess Tarowska should now be in
jhe female ward OF the Trazzi peni-
ttntiary. Instead, she is occupying
l,rmfUnable Q artsrs in the Guideca
p'ison OF Nerice.
Countess Sought Converts Peace
At the trial the countess expressed
the feryent visa to forego the world S
pleasures and spend the remainder of
her life in a convent The prison
chaplain saw the opportunity OF saw
ing a soul and ii was largely due to
his influence that he press treated
the beautiful penitent with unusual
consideration at the trial.
After her conviction the chaplain
obtained comfortable quarters for the
prisoner and later arranged for the
company of a sister OF charity in the
prisoners room. 1t was said the
countess was sick md needed bodily
as well as spiritual comforts. The
prison authorities closed their eyes
to the unusual amount of freedom
| left TO the prisoner
But the constant supply Of Rus
sian cigarettes that went TO the
countess's room labeled medicine
attracted the chaplain's attention He

I cigarettes were necessary to her
health Then one day he discovered

Prison Authorities in Love With Her
1 Notwithstanding the chaplain's dis
covery, things have changed but lit
tie The sister OF charity has been
sent back to the convent and the sup
ply Of cigarettes reduced, but the
countess has not as ytt been remov-
/ ed from her temporary quarters Inc
chaplain admits he has been deceiv
3el by the countesss religious senti
ments. and he also thinks everybody
in the prison doctors and Keepers,
has fallen in love with her
The countess, however, easily has
found other powerful friends. Ac-
cording to some reports, many Sc
crets influences are at work in her
favor. While she is reported to be
almost penniless, three prominent
lawyers have been retained by a
mysterious parsonage to plead in her
favor before the minister Of justice
that ap ardon be granted TO her.
The Countess Tarnowska was tried
and found guilty of causing the muir
der of Count Paul Kamarowski, a
wealthy Russian. to whom she was
betrothed. 4 young Russian student,
Nicholas Naumoff, under her intlu-
ence and at her command, shot and

An Economical Soul.

An elderly spinster. who, by reason
Of her extraction as to quality and
her stringency as to prices OF goods
supplied, was a terror to the trades
people where she resided, had one
day the misadventure to drink in mis-
take a dose of rat poison.
Although for some time in danger
she recovered. to the satisfaction and
equal surprise Of her medical man,
who, knowing she had swallowed
enough of the stuff to poison half-a.

homeless.

and on examination was found to have

owed her life.
On the doctor telling her all this
she cried to her house maid who was
present:

Returning his cigar to his mouth,
Mackenzie observed her, and saw that
her eyes followed and rested upon 1t
with icy and significant concentration.
Apparently, she had not heard word

the cigar out of the window. and. with

Are there any inducements, say in

speaking as II to herself, and with a
slight frown, "thct there were towns

ing from the high figures written upon
the bands that bound them. the total
must have reached into the hundreds
of thousands. Mackenzie saw, with
J surprise, and a thrill of pleasure that
he wondered at, that the woman expe-
rienced an unmistakable shock. She
gasped. and leaned heavily against the
table. She had been ignorant then,
that her companion had looted the gov
eminent treasury. But why. he angrily
asked himself, should he be so we'll
pleased to find this wandering singer
not SO black as report painted her?
A noise In the other room startled
them both. The dosr swung open, and
an elderly, smooth-faced. dark-complex-
toned man, half dressed. hurried into
the room.
The picture of President Mirafores
extant in Cibolo represented him as
the possessor of luxuriant and care
fully tended supply of dark whiskers,
but the barber Estebany's story had
prepared Mackenzie's eye for the
change.
The man stumbled into the light, mis-
eyes heavy from WEAKNESS and sleep.
but flashing with alarm.
What does this mean?" he demand

and perturbed look at tho American

"but guess I'm in time to prevent IT..

whom 1t belongs" He thrust both
hands into the pockets OF his loose
linen coat. The presidents hand
went quickly behind him
Don't draw" called Mackenzie,
sharply. I've got you covered from
my pocket"
The lady advanced and laid one
hand on the shoulder of the hesitating
defaulter. She pointed with the other
to the table. Tell me the TRUTH" she
said. Whose money is that?"
The man did not answer He gave
deep, long-drawn sigh, leaned and
kissed her on the forehead, and step
ped back into the other room and
closed the door
Mackenzie foresaw his purpose and
jumped for the door, but the report
of the pistol echoed as his hand touch

and some one struggled past him into
the suicides room.
