Omaha with return carda hav come back
to the writera: Senora Dominguea la said
to be telegraphing and writing to all those
who knew her husband In th United
States, after waiting for almoat three
montha to hear from him.
Senor Dominguea left Omaha the laat
time the first week hr January. He ac
companled Eugene Punk to hi home in
Shirley, III., after a trip to Chicago and
to Mollne. where h wa the guest of
the John Deer Plow company. After al
most two weeka aa a guet of Mr. Funk
Senor Domingve left hurriedly In re

ha wa going to St. Louis. He haa not
been heard from alnce. and thia waa three
month ago, about February 5.
Dally l.ettera From Wife.
"While In Omaha Senor Dominguea re.
ceived letter almost dally from Senora
Domlngue. When he finally left the city
It waa after waiting several day to get a
letter from hi horn and a remittance from
Puebla. He paid hi own day in everything
while In Omaha, though he told friends
that he waa not wealthy by any means,
but had only a amall Income, a large
part of which It waa evident he waa de
voting to the cause pf spreading the gospel
of better corn In Mexico.
After hi visit with Eugene Funk, Mr.
Funk aald he thought more of Domlnruei
the longer he knew him, believed him to
be a genuine and sincere friend of his
people and devoted to the cause pf better
agriculture for the republic on tha south.
This waa th Impression which all got
who knew Domlngues for the ahort time he
wa In Omaha.
In Mexico he la referred to aa a "philan
thropist," by some of the leading maga
Eines, among them being "Industrlas Mex
icanas." It la a Paaale.
What would cause Senor Dominguea to
absent himself from Puebla, where he was
farming 1,600 acres of land, being only
a small part of what he held, according
to Mexican newspapers, is a puttie to
those who know the Mexican planter.
Of Zeferino Domlngues other Mexicans
who attended the National Corn exposi
tion, spoke In th highest terms. He was
aald to be generous with his frlenda In his
eagerness to promote , better agriculture
and the only explanation which haa been
offered by any who know Senor Domlngues,
1 that he might have become temporarily
Involved in financial difficulties which he
Is now endeavoring to dear up among
