honors connected with it and in fact every
thing concerning such sad affair that the
human mind could conceive He said
that inasmuch as he was a priest he was
not acquainted with the laws and was
ignorant OF certain matters concerning the
transfer Of the money to America until he
found out By accident from legal friend
that there WAS tax of Il certain per cent.
on inheritances from one country to an
other. The tax OF direct Inheritance was
, per cent, and on An indirect inheritance
) per cent, thus the cost of transfer would

had sold certain jewels belonging to the
deceased for $, 800 and that it rec uired
$3.50 more 10 make the transfer Of the en-
tire amount. Herequested the Wichita Nj.
Hayns to come to Barcelona, Spain, and
bring the s., 800 with him. that he would
then and there give him Rosa and the
1920, coo and that it would save him a "trip
10 America. On second thought he thought
it was not best for Mr.. Hayns to-eome to
Spain, as Rosa's relatives On the maternal
side had spies on her tracks and the pres
ence Of a stranger would arouse their sus-
picion. and that perhaps they would DO

child and the money, including the Amer
lean cousins legacy of $4,000. On the
whole the alleged priest thought it was
best for the Wichita gentleman
to send him $500 in cash
or draft and that he would
proceed at once to America with Rosa
and the wealth. This letter caused the
Wichita man to smell mouse and he adj
vised with his attorney on the matter.
The result was that letter was seut some
four or five weeks ago by the guardian
authorizing Father Gems TO draw on the
funds in deposit for the $500. This let.
ter has not been answered and very likely
it never will he.
This seems to be the newest system of
swindlIng and those who have read the
cieyerly written letters Of the alleged
Father GEMS, are not surprised
that so many people are swiudled
in this age. II q less shrewd fellow than
the Wichita gentleman fell into the hands
OF ths Spanish conspirators be would IN
doubtedly have been caught in their trap.
In the meantime our Mr.. Hayns is try
ing to make himself believe that the whole
affair is dream, hut the letters of Father
Gems, the photograph of little Rosa and
pa and the copy of the will rise up in all
their reality before him.

THAT PAVING Bt SINEsS.

While the friends OF brick paving are
not growing more numerous they are GER
taIniv growing more bCisterous in theii
claims that the asphalt people will ho
knocked out Monday night. What they
base their claims on nobody knows. Ths y
seem to have some axe tc grind wItu
the asphalt people that TREY only
are aware OF. IL is not 50
much IA question of paving Douglas
avenue with brick, for the brick ide, was
never popular and probably never viii! be.
but merely to knock out the asphalt for
some reason. The business men along
Douglas avenue, who want asphalt and
that only, and who, by the way will have
to foot the bills are not idle, and If their
talk goes they are for once going TO make
test case as TO whether the property own
ers or the agents Of contractors are run
ming the city of Wichita. Monday night
will settle the question and lively time
is to be expected Feeling is running
quite high IN the matter aud the express
sions of business men and property owners
if given verbatim would make very sensa-
tionRl reading.

HOWLEY-CR0zIER
Glove Contest Arranged for Last
Night Did Not Come OF.
THE SHERIFF AND HIS DEPUTIES
Took a Hand in tho AFFAIR and Pre-.
vented the Fight Taking Pleee-It
viii Probably Come off Sometime
Next Week-Having Fun With the
Sheriff

The Howley- Crozier glove contest adj
vertised to take place in the city last
night, did not come of. This condition
OF affairs did not come about from a
Auke on the part of either OF the prin'
cipals or their hackers, but was caused
by the arm OF the law, in the person OF
Sheriff Franzheim, who, together with
several Of his deputies, went down on
the South Side and hung around in the
neighborhocd OF the hall where the
contest was to take place. The sheriff
Investigated matters, and found that
there were no arrangements made in
the hall Tor the fight, so he and his
deputies moved their headquarters
further down the street, opposite the
saloon OF one OF the hackers OF one OF
tho principals, where, in the deep
shadows behind' the market house
pillars, they awaited developments, the
impression having been noised about
that the contest might take place in the
rear Of the saloon. One OF the deputies,
however, was so much larger in circum-
ference than the pillar, that tho posses
whereabouts we're discovered. Tho pro-
prietor invited them in, when they
could better satisfy themselves that
nothing OF u law-hreaklpg nature was
going on. Needless to say, the invita-
ton was declined.
Throughout tho afternoon and even
ing, there had been rumors that tho
authorities would prevent the fight 60
ing on, and as q consequence the crowd
was not nearly as large as it otherwise
would have been. However, nearly q
hundred sports were on hand, but
when it was discovered that the sheriff
and deputies were outside ready to pull
the crowd il q fight was attempted, the
enthusiasm e%vaporated considerably,
none relishing the idea Of a stay in the
county's bastiIe. The fight, had it been
allowed TO take place, would have been
n good one, as both mon were in excel
lent shape. The contest will probably
come of the latter part OF next week at
u place not yet determined upon.
At midnight a telephone message was
received from the hacker referred to, to
the effect that the sheriff and posse
were still on guard, behind the pillars.
The proprietor OF the place in
order to have a little fun with
the sheriff, lighted up his hall
in the third story OF the build
ing, and sent an emmisary oyer to let
the sheriff onto the fact that the fight
would come off at l o'clock this morn
ing. The sheriff bit and with his de-
puties continued on guard.
Both fighters and hackers will meet
this evening and agree on n time and
select u new battle ground for the con-
test, unavoidably delayed.
