Once Toast of All Europe, Dies
Broken Hearted and Friendless

st. Petersburg. Aug. 23.-The tragic
death of Countess Marie Tarnawska,
whose lifeless body was found hanging
in Il st. Petersburg-Kiev express train
a few days ago. brings again to public
notice the life story Of her who was
nj the most beautiful. the most
%courted and the mos vivacious woman
in all the courts OF Europe, but who
in 1910 was cast n an Italian dun
geon from which she emerged last
year a spiritless. broken-hearted
wreck.
The countess was an Irish girl. Her
father was MI Of the wealthy
o'Rourkes. Early in life she infat-
uated Count Tarnawska. He was ner
slave. Everything he had in the
world he laid at her feet. Finally
she married him. But his love did O
satisfy her. Her nature yearned for
h attention of other e And le-
sions there We're who paid court to
the brilliant Irish girl. One OF their
number was the Count kamarowsky.
He went wild over her. And she led
him on.
Her ex,ravagance changed her hus-
band from a wealthy to a poverty
stricken noble. Her firtations with
other men almost drove him mad. So
he fed. And then the girl a v her
attentions to Kamarowsky. In some
way she persuaded him t insure his
life. in her benefit. for 100000.
Only a short time afterward KAN

Peru's Night of Suffering.

South Bend, Indiana, March 27.-A ray of hope developed tonight in the flood situation at Peru, Indiana, sur vivors of the stricken tc,xn sight ing from terrible conditions in the arrival of the South Bend rescue par ty, headed by Lieutenant Governor William T. 'O'Neal. With the arrival of the volunteers the organization of rescue squads started and people are now being moved to places of safety.
 It is now known that at least sixty are dead and 100 are missing. These figures are conservative and it is probable that they will greatly ex- ceed this estimate.
 Following a night of awful suffer- ing pestilence broke out among the two thou sand refugees in the court house square, smallpox, diptheria, humps, measles and scarlet fever having been reported.
 The longest night the thousands WHO were SIIdIluGu uCIC VIII ever Hay . to pass through was one of terrible suffering and anguish. Worn out by the hours of suffering, seven per- sons gave up their battle for life in the court house and the number of unfortunates who succumbed in the streets outside can only. be a matter of conjecture. Three of the suffer- CTS died in the same hour. One, a mother, who had few minutes be- fore given birth to child. One other baby was born during the night and today it looked as if the little one would survive the frightful ordeal, although it's mother lowered between life and death.
 All through the night from the steps of the court house could be heard the vail of the people in the streets. And as the moans and shrieks of the sufferers floated across the muddy waters walls from those within the temporary refuge joined.
