also reports that many horsemen are
approaching the coast at Mazagan and
that the city of Mazagan is threat
ened. Cruisers have been sent to SAT-
fis and Magador, from which the ad-
miral awaits news.
Calm reigns at Rabat, where yes

I. HURLED FORTH
BY OUTLAW
Arizona Deputy Sheriff Starts
Out Armed to the Teeth to
Take Up InSoIent Challenge
of Wife Murderer,

Tucson, Arlz., Aug. 21.-"Come and
take me II you can. have my gun
and am ready for you. / will kill you
like dog If ever lay my eyes on
you. Why don't you try to take me7"
This was the message that Glen
Scott, deputy sheriff of Graham coun-
ty, received two weeks ago from Juan
TOnce, desperate who is badly want
ed In MOrencl for the shooting Of his
wife. This morning. armed to the
teeth, Scott and Deputy Sheriff Al
berto Mungia started for silver Bell,
where have learned the desperado is
in hiding.
SO insulting was the letter Scott re-
ceived from the murderous outlaw
that he determined to personally cap
ture the desperate. Usually he would
have turned the matter over to the au-
thorities of Pima county, but In this
instance he came all the distance from
Morenci to meet face to face the man
who dares him To a battle to the
death.
Scott Is a typical western deputy.
He Is considerably over six feet In
height and Is known as a perfectly
fearless man. There had been bad
blood between him and the desperate
before the latter committed his latest
crime. After Tonce shot his wife,
Scott was particularly active In his ef-
forts to capture him. Through friends
the desperate heard OF this and mail
ed Scott the insulting letter. calling
the sheriff many names and daring
him to fight.
Two days Scott was given a tip that
Tonce was In hiding at Silver Bell
The deputy, with Alberto Mungia, an
other Graham county deputy. imme-
diately started for Tucson They ar
rived here yesterday afternoon. and
after comforting with the local sher-
iff's office. started for Silver Bell this
morning. Both men are armed with
rifles and revolvers and expect a des-
perate battle They are expected to
arrive In Silver Bell at about o'clock
this afternoon.
While here Scott was very anxious
to escape reporters. To friends, how
ever. he said that he would take no
chances IN arresting Tonce. Scott de-
sired to get TOnce all alone. but was
advised, and practically ordered. to
take Mungia with him In order to
make more certain of the capture of
the criminal.
Tonce has a long criminal record
and Is said to have killed several
men, His most recent exploit was the
shooting OF his wife. a crime so brutal
that lynching was threatened II the
man was caught. In III OF fury
al the woman Tonce drew his revolver
and shot her through the face. For
several weeks II was expected that she
would die. but she finally recovered.
although horribly dlsflgured. This
last crime was committed In Morenel
about three months ago. and through
the aid Of friends Tonce escaped and
was not heard Of again until Scott re-
eeived the letter daring him to fight.
