When Ludvtoha Otnetle' father
married her to a Spanish count
last summer, a count with a won
derful ranch In Texas and more
money than Ludvlcka ever
dreamed of, the “little Olnetis
girl." as neighbors celled her,
saw hersolf on the road to hap-
piness.
Todsy the IB-year-old bride
site In her luxurious boudoir at
the Rancho do Cora'fa with
tragedy her only companion. Her
father and mother have Just been
burled. Her father murdered
her mother and killed himself.
The Rpanleh count la alive, but
he nan-owly escaped death at the
hands of hla father-in-law.
The gtrl-brlde of aged Count
Sebastain Brsgsnza de Coralla,
cam# to Texas from Chicago last
summer, after the strangest woo-
ing that ever won a bride. She
was practically sold to the count.
Her father, a janitor, advertised
lu Chicago newspapers that hla
daughter, 10, "wants a good,
wealthy husband.”
The "ad" set forth that tho
girl and her mother would pa-
red# the beach each night at B,
for Inspection. Count do Cora-
i lia, 6o, distinguished In aw*>ar-
sure, come to woo her. His
title was genuine, his Texas
ranch was real. Ludvlcka was
given to him as his bride.
Ludvlcka knew nothing of
lovo dreams. To go to Toxas,
have plenty of money, to glvo
her father and mother luxury—
that spelled happiness for her.
But the* former Janitor, having
no occupation, became quarrel-
some. His now luxuries brought
little contentment la a family
quarrel he killed his wife, tried
to kill his son-lu-law and ended
hla owa life.
The girl-bride escaped him,
but her dream of what wealth
can bring Is shattered.
