swindle comes from Madrid Spain. The
heroine is a handsome, elegantly dressed
woman, who the other day visited spe-
eialist in mental diseases on behalf OF
her husband. who she said. was a suffer-
er from religious mania. Having eK-
planned the case, it was arranged that
she should return in about an hour with
the afflicted husband.
The next scene OF action was jewell
er's shop in another part OF the city,
where she selected diamonds 10 the value
Of E1.o00 on the understanding that she
would buy them if her husband approved.
Would some one accompany her home IN
a cab and the money would be paid Inn
mediately? a trusted clerk was sent,
and with him the lady drove back to the
doctors house. In an aBte-room she took
the stones Just to show them to her
husband" then, entering with sublime as
surance the doctors study, she Informed
the specialist that her husband was now
in the ante-room and ready 10 he ex-
amIned.
Leaving a visiting card. the lady took
her departure, and the doctor, bidding
the supposed patient enter, proceeded at
his leisure TO ask professional questions.
The jewelers. man was puzzled at first,
but soon he realized that he had been
made the victim 6f clever fraud. The
doctor, however. interpreted his agitation
as caused by his complaint, and when ar
ter two hours matters were finahsy eX-
planned, the lady impostor had vanished
with her spoils, without leaving any trace.
