Count Kamarowski was murdered in
Venice September 4, 1907. by young
Russian official named Naumoff. The
Countess Tarnowska, whose maiden
name was Marie ORourke. a Russian
of Irish descent, eloped at eighteen with
Count TanoWska, to whom she was
married Her life with him was un-
happy and she was divorced The law
yer PrilukOff, who conducted her cause,
deserted his wife and robbed his clients
for her. When his money gave out she
made the acquaintance of Count KAN
arowski and of Naumof. both Of whom
fell in love with her.
Kamarowsk was persuaded to effect
an insurance on his life of $125.O0O in
favor of the countess, the negotiations
being carried out by PrilukOff The
countess and Prilukoff worked upon the
jealousy of Naumoff to aVenge an in
suit offered the countess by kamarow-
ski. Naumoff shot the count. Naumoff,
the countess and her maid were arrest
ed, the countess sentenced to eight
years Imprisonment ana Naumoff to
three years. The maid was acquitted.
The ghastly tragedy of the whole
business was that the wounded man
might easily have recovered had he not
been in the hands of an insane doctor.

OF money from which the county will
derive all the direct returns and a full
share of the indirect and incidental

weighty enough to decide the legis-

they also were sufficient to decide the
full grand jury to adopt a unanimous
resolution recommending that the
County Board Of Commissioners pay

that the legal aspects We're fully con-
