''The Spanish Swindle" 1.

The scheme consists in send ing letters to certain persons, who have previously been select ed by confederates. The founda- tion of the plot varies somewhat. In some instances the writer re- presents himself as a dying prisoner in a military fortress. He has a fortune on deposit in the United States, but the certi- ficates of stock are concealed in a secret receptacle of his valise, which has been seized by Spanish Court, and will be held until the prisoner, or his repre- sentative, has satisfied the cost of the trial. He claims distant relationship with the adresees. If the first letter bears fruit, it is quickly followed by others in which the prisoners daughter plays a prominent part.
 She is in Spain without a pro- tector. A Proposal is made to send her here, accompanied by a priest, to the newly found rela- tive for protection. if enough money is sent to release the valise containing the secret re- ceptacle and the certificate of de- posit. If the relative will accept the trust he is to receive one fourth of the prisoners entire fortune of about 12O, 900 pounds. Of course, the relative" never never hears from the swindlers after be has sent the money re- quested.
 Under the Spanish laws a felony must be consummated before the police may act, and a mere at- tempt to obtain money by false pretenses does not appear to warrant arrest, The money must be actually paid over. and the prosecuting witness must be pre- sent in person to testify; other wise prosecution would be usless.

OLD ONES MUST GO.
Younger Men For the Chicago Cubs,
Says President Murphy.

Chicago, Oct 21.-P9esident Murphy OF
the Cubs issued a statement last night.
which indicates that several new faces will
be seen in the 1918 lineup as well as a
new manager. He declares the team lacks
speed and the changes are TO be made with
an idea of getting faster men on the bases
and who can hit.
Unless l am badly mistaken, we will
have a good ball club and competent
manager. in 1913 says the statement. y
am positive cur pitching staff will be
stronger and the outfield will be made up
OF fas. men who can hit
That the players arc slow on the base
lines is pointed out by Murphy in COM
parison OF the clubs in the number of
stolen bases, which shows the Cubs tied
for SIKH place with Philadelphia He de-
ciares men 10 and 20 years old must be
found to take the places of the players,
who have been years in the game and have

ably find it employed again. With
only a yard or 50 to gain after this
down the attacking eleven has two
more tries TO get the ball the required
distance. and if the shift appears to be
too risky to be used again two
straight. od-fashioned line plunges are
likely to take the ball that two yards
or SO more which are necessary.
In resorting to the play it is inn
peratively necessary that seven men
are on the line and that they are not i'll
motion when the ball is passed, al
though the fact that they are not set
on their feet. but are on their toes,
gives them the jump on their oppo-
nents. unless the latter are quick TO
concentrate and turn the advance.
One of the most important of foot
ball maxims. if not the most impor-
tant of all, is that the defense must
follow the ball as closely as the at
tack, and this Xear-more than last.
or more than the year before-it be-
comes even more necessary that the
defending players are keen enough of
perception to gather where the blow
is to strike their line. If they miss IT,,
under the present advantage which is
given to the attack by an additional
down, they will find that the first play
against them has put the ball within
three or four yards of the coveted ten,
a point from which the attacking side
will be willing to try TO break the line
for the needed distance without cir
cling it or thrusting it apart with
shift wedge
