tude this day. A brave and loyal gem
tIeman, beloved and esteemed by all
who knew him, was within the hour
to answer with his life for an alleged
neglect of duty. and those who knew
the tender mercies of their sovereign
had but little faith in his chances of
escape. II was but three days past
that Don Diego de Guzman, alcayde OF
Seville, had been made answerable
with his head for the first unpunished
murder within the city walls, for many
brawls took place between the hot
headed caballeros who thronged the
town in attendance on the court. and
the king was set on putting an end to
their continuance Scarcely "a hours
ago, however, Don Sancho de Espino-
sa, cavalier of Aragon, had been
found dead in a pool OF his own blood
IN one OF the narrow streets of the
Moorish quarter, without a trace of
any kind to give clue of the assas-
SINS identity. The alcayde had left
no stone unturned in his endeavor m
discover the culprit, but could rest his
case on no firmer foundation than the
'esumony of the old crone before
whose dwelling-place the corpse had
been found. Drawn to the window-

Hen Are to Make 1870 Pounds at
6 O'clock This Afternoon.
TO BE A CLOSE BATTLE
Betting Favors Milwaukee Lad
Trifle Over Yanger.
The Husky Little Italian from
Chicago a Fierce Fighter.

Milwaukee, May 20-The Neary- Yam
ger bout to be decided here tonight is
the one topic of conversation in the To-
cal headquarters of fight fans. The
coming contest is a subject Of continu-
Gus argument and discussion, but the
admirers of the Milwaukee champion
are extremely bashful when It comes
to covering moderate sums of Yanger
money that have been sent here for
placement.
The praises of Neary are being sung
in every resort of the fstic followers,
but there is a latent feeling of respect
for the husky little italian from Chi
cago that makes wager against his
opponent quite distasteful to the ma
jority of local fans. .a4-
Neary is in excellent condition. and is
as hard as nails, and while he will not
make the weight of 13O pounds at 6 p
m. easily, he will be strong enough to
fight his usual aggressive battle. With
the local sports the result OF the AFFAIR
| does not depend upon Neary'S ablllty
to fight his best at the weight, but viii
hinge entirely upon his ability to break
through the clever defense of the Chi
! cagoan.
! Yanger is considered to be the more
clever man with his mitts, but Neary's
aptitude for slowing away punishment,
and his method of taking a punch to
give one IN return is counted upon 10

high caliber. He has defeated Louis
Long, Kid Broad, Jimmy Briggs (twice),
Kid Herman (twice) and Dave Sullivan
This army of fights makes Neary look
very good to any critic and makes it
certain that Yanger has no soft mark
on hand.
Yanger has the call on Neary in ex-
perience, ring generalship and, perhaps,
in self-confidence, while Neary is con-
ceded the harder punch and fully an
| equal amount of stamina under fire.

Mareoni Company Would Estab.
Iish Station at Wichita.
Want That Territory on Their
Wireless System.
A BANK TO USE SERVICE
National Bank of Kansas City to
Abandon Cable Line.
Lawrence and Topeka Termed
intermediate Stations.

Wichita, May 2O.-The Eagle says:
E. c. Guild of New York is in the city
in the interests of the Marconi Wire
less Telegraph system. The Marconi
company is establishing a system of
wireless telegrapny throughout the
western states clear to the Pacific
coast, and stations will be installed at
all important points across the con-
tinent. Stations are now in operation
at several points along the Atlantic
coast, also at Chicago. Milwaukee, Buff
falo, Cleveland, and one is in course of
construction at St. Louis. Arrange
ments have just been completed for a
station to be installed at Kansas City,
Mo-, by November 1. Mr.. Guild has
been in Lawrence and Topeka for the
past two weeks and contracted with
those cities for intermediate stations,
and preparations will be begun at once
at those places.
Mr.. Guild wishes to make Wichita
q distributing station, from which
messages will be sent over the sur
rounding country for a radius of 500
miles. Any long distance message to
be sent from within a radius of about
800 miles south or west of Wichita
would be transmitted to this point and
then sent from here. If the MESA ge
be sent from a point nearer Kansas
City than Wichita. then it would be
transmitted to that places Lawrence
and Topeka will I've termed informed
late stations, and their messages will
be sent over long distances from Kan
sas City, or in case a, system is INSTALL
ed at Wichita, from this point.
Mr.. Guild has met with fine success

A Kansas City paper of April II
stated as follows: THE National
Bank of Commerce will abandon ca
bic service between New York, Eng
land and Europe May 1. A contract
bank will send its MESA geS by wire
less telegraphy. The contract includes
also a provision that messages will be
sent between Kansas City and New
Y DIRK by wireless telegraphy within six
months The contract further provides
that a wireless telegraph station is to
be erected in Kansas City within that
time
Marconi messages have been sent
over three thousand miles and this not
interruptedly but continuously from
day to day. Messages have been re-
ceived for two thousand miles at sea
from a shore station. Messages are
constantly passing every day between
ships, and between shore stations and
ships. The fact that Marconi has sue
ceeded in sending messages from Eng
land to Russia and from England to
Italy, over all sorts of intervening OBJ
jects, proves conclusively the success
of the system, not only for transmits
sion over large bodies of water, but
over land as well.
The working agreement between the
Marconi Wireless company ana the
Western Union and Postal is one of
the most important steps yet taken in
the progress of the system. The CO.
operation of these two great telegraph
organizations in the wireless rather
than in competition with it the land
wire companies expect to find their
greatest advantage. Every telegraph
office in the United States and Canada
by this agreement becomes an author
lied agency for the receipt and trans
mission of wireless messages With
Western Union and Postal on this SIDE
and the government telegrapns in
Canada and England cooperating, the
system should at once become of vast
Importance to both nations.
Mr.. Marconi has an arrangement
with the Cunard line whereby they
furnish certain amount of matter
perhaps 200 words-daily for a newspa-
per to be published on each of the
ships of the line.

Knife stab MN Re FataI.

Wichita, Kan, May 2O-A state
warrant was sworn out for the arrest
of Tom Blunt, a farm hand of Valley
Center, who is charged with making a
murderous assault upon Homer Pratt
of that town. Pratt is the son of
prominent parents.
The two boys were in Wichita at
tending the circus and spring carni-
val. They started home on a train
that left here at II o'clock at night
Before reaching Valley Center, what
started as a friendly scuff1e, grew into
a heated argument. Blunt drew a
knife, and, it is alleged, stabbed Pratt
two or three times. One thrust is said
to have pierced a lung.
Young Pratt was alive at last re-
ports, but it was believed that the
wounds would prove fatal. Pratt's
brother swore out the warrant for
BIunt's arrest.
