"He represents so completely the Paris, Dec. Countess Diane Ogir D'lvry, the beautiful young daughter of Count Ogir D'lvry, died in a hospital here under remarkable circumstances. Last evening a pony cart driven by a handsomely dressed young man accompanied by" a groom collided with a heavy vehicle near the Avenue Dubois du Boulogne. The occupants of the pony cart were thrown out and the groom was slightly and the young man dangerously injured. The latter was removed to a hospital, and the doctors were preparing for an operation when they found the injured person a woman.

She was removed to the fe- maJe ward and was identified -as the daughter of Count Ogir D'lvry. A medical examination disclosed that her skull was fractured in three places and sha died soon after. The countess was 20 years of age and her blond hair was cut short It is explained that she was In the habit of assuming male attire to avoid attracting the attention of men. The D'lvry family Is highly connected. The count is a retired army officer and the author of a number of poetical works, including "Rhymes of Cape and Sword." A member of the family's entourage says the countess was fond of daring feats of horsemanship and liked to drive tallyho drags and four-in-hands.

She found that male dress attracted less attention while driving, and when thus attired was one of the most daring drivers on the avenues. The family has a chateau at Xerac, in the department of Lot et Garonne, where the peasants were familiar with the coun- tegs' strange costumes feats. and daring general line of ideas and policies ov which Mr. Cleveland and Jie possesses so entirely the confidence of the same conservative class which has hoped to see Mr. Cleveland in the field that every one "who would vote 1 for Mr.

Cleveland would be unable to do.

Marklon was hard-working, frugal and saving. He put ibis money into Midland town lots and built houses on, trfem lilmself during idle months. He would rent or sell as seemed best. Several months ago he became ill. He was urged by friends (hs haJ made many) in.

"Tacks'," who at times did brilliant work, spoiled all by his great fault of stopping to argue the different plays as they came up. He caught here with his hands so sore that he could not close them, and consequently his work was poor. This caused his release, "Take him, however, and catch him iu his turn he will do as good work for the local team as any other catcher they secure," said a base ball man.
