LWP::UserAgent did't do anything with encoding...

In my script

use strict;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my @captions;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();

my $response = $ua->get('http://www.1418.ru/chronicles.php?p=100');
if ($response->is_success) {
    my $file = $response->content;
    $file =~ m/<h3>(.*)<\/h3>/i;
    my $h3_content = $1;
    push @captions,  $h3_content;
} else {
    warn 'ERROR: no HTML ',$response->status_line;
}

open TEST, ">", "test.txt" or die $!;
print TEST $captions[0];
close TEST;
[download]

I get txt file with normal cp1251 text.

So the question is how do you open resulting file?
