looking forever at the brown hills that
shut in her home. She said she was
afraid that she was losing her mind
and feared her children would inherit
insanity.

boy, breaking out of the house ant
calling wildly for help. There was ;

Rome.-The papal nuncio at Madrid,
Mgr. Vico, has not been recalled by the
Vatican, which is awaiting the official
announcement of the recall by the
Spanish government of Marquis de
Ojeda, ambassador to the Vatican. The
situation with regard to the rupture
with Spain therefore remains practically
unchanged.
The Vatican is greatly offended at
the methods adopted by Premier
Canalejas in the recall of the Spanish
ambassador, as the announcement was
made through the press and neither the
papal nuncio nor the Vatican was noti-
fed directly. AS a consequence, the
papai secretary of state, Cardinal Merry
del Val, has not been able to take any
measure of retaliation, but it is believed
that Mgr. Vieo win be instructed to
leave Madrid shortly after the official
