Por Pauz Fetal.

Por otra parte, solo con verla, adj
yinabase su coraz6n y su alma.
Era una exceiente sehora, dulce,
caritativa & incapaz de odio; pero
era una debil mujer de mediana in
teligencia y de voluntad casi nula.
La sonora vizcon desa de Audemer
vivi6 pobre rnu cho tempo, despu6s
de la muerte de su mando, y NADIA
habia nunca sabido de los ne gocios
de Reimundo de Audemer que, pa
IA no volver jamas, partiera bajo
pretexto de recoger la succession de
ulrico.
Una carta de Otto el bastardo
de Bluthaupt le habia noticiado la
muerte del vizconde sin darle otros
detalies, y cuando mas tarde habian
lido los bastardos q Paris Otto habia
guardado sobre aquel asunto una es-
pecie de misterio.
Los otros dos Albert y Goets nun
ca adelantaban una palabra mas
ala de las de Otto, cuya voluntad
parecia ser la regia suprema de la
conducta de todos.
lgnoraba Elena los acontecimien-
tos que precedieran la partida de
SUI ,mando Y no conociendo siquiera
4 aquel Santiago Regnault, que fue-
ra el principal Instruments de su
ruina, mando hacer algunas indaga-
clones en- Alemama.
Supo entonces y a un mismo ITEM
20, que la succession de su padre ha-
hia sido robada por enteros y que :
mmensos dominios de Gunther de
Rluthaupt su tio, habian cal do legai
mente en- manos extrahas.
AaAa tenia que esperar por aquel
lado. La familia de su esposo lie era
desconecida, y ei mlsmo Raimundo
ie habia dicho amenudo que todos
sus parientes vivian en- la misma es-
trechez, que 81.
Encontr4hase SOLO con Ell mho Ju-
han que t-nia seis abriles y con Dio-
nisia, que acababa de nacer
Paso amos crueles; y 81 los bastar-
dos no hubieran acudido en- 81 ayu-
da aigunas veces no habria podido
soportar tan grave carga.
Otto, ALERT y Goetz no tenia
mas q;ia IS capas colorad heoka

Julian ilegaba a los diaciocho ai1os
cuando un amigo de la familia de
Audemer vino a proponer a Elena
una colocaci6n para 81 hi,o en- una
de las principales casas de comercio
de Paris. Era una casa n,leva, cuya

out. there has been q rapid and healthy
growth IN all phases OF agricultural edu-
cation. the year being noteworthy for the
attention given to providing facilities for
graduate study in agriculture. to reorgan-
king and strengthening college courses
and to multiplying opportunities for ac-
quiring secondary and elementary In.
struction in this subject.
The growing activity in all phases Of
agricultural education in this country, de-
reflected in the larger demands made
upon the Department Of Agriculture for
information upon every phase of agri-
culture.
In 1897 the total income Of Immigrant
colleges aggregated only $4,000. 600: tods v
ii is $lS.OOO.0OO. The property OF these
institutions was then valued at $51 900.

dents in agricultural schools: now there
