.. ,iie handsome Spaniard. Jowiaudo
in?ert'j Lavero, was introduced to the
? . _ |? Mrs Dcmontano. With Cecil il
W<1* , case of love at first sight. The
& miard was undeniably handsome, and
j.,. liecame apparently infatuated with the
vbini" heiress, so much so that the girls
became jealous. Lavero was l?okciLup?n
. prize, for lie never tired of telling ot
his father's castles und vast estate near
i'.arcelona. and of thc great wealth he was ,
to inherit , .
Sis ?.-. ki after meeting Lavero, ( ecii j]

a foolish thing she says she cannot no.w i
tell. Her lawy.r suggests that it was ?
hypnotism. .
' |!e thai ., - it may in the presence of old t
John Him. the family lawyer, who had ?
drawn up her father's will and was her j
guardian and executor, she turned every- |
tiling o?. i to Lavero. The next morning, >
sin savs. without even advertising the J
Kennt .h estate and homestead beyond ,
throw itig n I'i ? hat dbills out on the ?
streets of Paris. Ky... Lavero sold it lo the J
highest bidder. It a rainy day, and ,
a- buyers ware scarce for the Iwo reasons 1
mentioned, the girl's maternal -rand- j
father, Humphrey Mhfmizer ItJtmell, i

Jennie Veatmins, the acircss. to her sis

The beginning.of the last act came on
Nov. Ht. They had all been living with
Cecil's hall sister in a hue house on
