THE TIMES, NEW . BLOOMFIELI), l'A. MA11CII 22, 1881.
Sad Ending of a Flirtation.
Neapolitan society lms lately been much
exercised Ity a terrible tragedy in bigb life.
For sonio time int tbe Countess del CIriio
a lady of extraordinary beauty, bad been
notoriously nt odds with her husband! a
gentleman to whom she had, at tbe urgent
instance of her family, most unwillingly
given her hand, her heart had already been
bestowed upon n young Austrian artist,
who qilltted Europe for America on the
day of her marringo, only returning thence
to Naples a few weeks ago. He was a fre
quent guest at tbe Countess's evening re
ceptions a fact which reached the ears of
Count del C'inno at his club, where he spent
the most of his time by night as well as by
day. One evonlng, just as the painter was
issuing from tbe doorway of the Palazzo
del Cigno, tbe Count drove up to the chief
entrance, and, while alighting from bis
carriage, noticed his wife waving her hand
in farewell to her old lover as bo doscouded
the stone steps leading to the street. With
out a moment's hesitation the Count drew
a stiletto from the breast pocket of his coat
and buried it to tbe hilt in tbe bosom of
his rival, who fell, mortally wounded to
the ground. As Del Cigno was getting into
his curringe, however, a bullet from the
Austrian's revolver, fired, as it were, in
extreiuiR, passed through bis head, killing
him on the spot. Fivo uiiuntes later the
artist also breathed his last. This horrible
encounter took place under the very eyes of
the Cou mess, upon whom tho spectacle of
her husband's and lover's violent deatb in
flicted so overwhelming a shock that she
became a raving maniac, and is now under
restraint iu a lunatio' asylum near Naples.
A Legislator Accused of Larceny.
Raleigh, N. C, March 14. The Legis
lature of North Carolina adjourned to-day
having in sixty days passed nearly five
hundred bills. They raised the school tax
to twelve and one half cents on one hun
dred dollars worth of property. A. 4V.
Simpson, member from Dare, a white re
publican, was arrested when about to leave,
on a charge of larceny. A considerable
quantity of stolen pluuder was fouud in
his carpet-bag and in a box in his room.
He says two other white Republican mem
bers put ap a job ou bim because he
would not vote for a certain bill. The ex
amination is not yet concluded.
"Blasted Foreigners."
An English farmer who had resided
several years in Canada recently returned
to England, taking with him a number of
Colorado beetles as a curiosity. Through
some inadvertence, five of them escaped,
and the fact coming to the knowledge of
the authorities, the amateur naturalist was
arrested and fined 3. The matter has
been brought to tbe attention of the
House of Commons; the people in the
vicinity have -formed themselves into a
committee for tbe purpose of capturing
the Invaders, and every one is united in a
war of extermination against the "blaBted
foreigners."
Taking a Long Nap.
A singular case of the partial suspension
of physical power in man is attracting the
attention of medical men in Lehigh coun
ty. A young Hungarian .dropped into a
heavy slumber or trance several weeks ago,
and all efforts to restore him to conscious
ness have so far proven unavailing. He baa
a natural appearance and takes nourish
ment regularly, but the only evidences of
life exhibited are a low breathing aud an
occasional yawn. He is believed to be
partially coubcious, but is utterly devoid
of motive power.
A Freak of the Law.
A woman fell on an icy sidewalk in
Hartford and broke her leg. She recovered
f 500 damages from the city. The owner
of the premises in front of which she
was hurt, was theu sued by the city, on
the ground that he had violated an ordi
nance by sot clearing the walk of ice.
The Supreme Court has decided in this
case that tbe city, and not the property
owner is liable for injury to a person fall
ing on an icy sidewalk.
Brought in a Scalp,
Tbe passengers on a train snowbound
at Marengo, Iowa, saw wolves prowling
about tbe cars at night. In tbe morning
several men with revolvers get out to hunt
the beasts. They soon returned triumph
antly displaying a scalp ; but it turned
out to belong to tho 6tation masters good
natured dog, which they had slain by mis
take for a fierce wolf.
Infants With Pistols.
The citizens of Bethlehem were horri
fied the other day by the disoovery that
a numbor of boys attending the public
schools wore in the habit of carrying pis
tols. A thorough investigation is being
made by the directors and teachers.
tS'The ground in the town of Mahanoy
Plane has settled within a few days to
such an extent as to e fleet a number of
tbe dwellings seriously. The yard of one
house is reported to be full of small holes
the bottom of which cannot be reached by
an ordinary clothes prop. Tbe people do
not fear any serioue result, as it is believed'
that the sinking is caused by the breaches
, which exist iu tbe mountains on each side
of the valley.
