FORTUNE TOO LATE

Htece.’ved this day at 8.30. n.m.)
NEW YORK, March 10
An attorney undertook the pleasant task to-day to inform Prince I'Tit'z Wilhelm Holm that he had inherited a million sterling. Upon, arriving at the Prince’s hotel, the lawyer learned that the Prince had died half an hour before, from double pneumonia He was born at Copenhagen 40 years ago. The Prince served King Nicholas of Montenegro. Perhaps the outstanding feat or the Prince’s remarkable career was the finding, in a remote part of China, a famous Destorian monument erected in A.D. 781 to commemorate the arrival of a Christian missionary in the 6th. or 7th. century. He was the holder of forty decorations, a memDer of thirty-two scientific- societies and Roya.l Academies of thirteen Kingdoms. Holm never wore an overcoat, an eccentricity which probably induced the fatal illness.
