 The couple met here while the Mar shesa was visiting the United States with her parents. Victor Smith, the husband, was a handsome, southerner, with the manners of cavalier and in stantly captivated her. One of her uncles many years ago had eloped with the great Italian tragedienne Ristori and the impetuous, romantic young Marchesa saw no harm in doing the same thing with the dapper look ing American. Taking advantage of the relaxation of the vigilance of her parents the Marchesa slipped away, joined her lover and fled with him to the south where they were married.
 Her husband prospered and she thought he was well to do until the es- tate was liquidated. Since she be- came apprised of the necessity of earn ing her own living, she has been pos ing for artists but her worries have impaired her former beauty and made it increasingly difficult for her to se cure employment of this kind.
