Sotue UiUie agoy, news paper printed a list of ’ those who Had .mareied foreign noblemen, and whilo the number was not noted particularly,it pas not small. These marriages as a rule don’t turn out well. It is easily understood that tn,ey do not when it is considered that on tlie one hand the contracting pariies are after titles and on the other they are after money, Every now and then the unfortu nate result of these marriages is made public. The latest instance is that of the Count di Alentereole, of It!ay,to Aliss Virginia Knox, of Pittsburg, Pa. The Count met Aliss Knox abroad. She was wealthy, and he was supposed to have title, so it was a case of love (of .titles and money) at first sight. They were married in this country, the union seemed to be a really happy one. Just prior to her departure for her castle abroad, , the young wife ex pressed her happiness in a very pretty way. They sailed oil) They went to Paris aad in a hotel there hey had a misunderstanding, and the count whipped her That scene was followed by others equally as disgraceful, and a week or two ago the Count return to America, pre sumably to gather testimony;for di- vorce proceedingii.
