SHEELoR SMITH
 CASE EVIDENCE. | E.
 FINISHED TODAY
Hearing Continued Until 10 a. m. Tomorrow When Ar
 guments Will Be Made.

The hearing of evidence in the Sheelor-Smith case was concluded to- day shortly before noon in the U. & District Court before Judge Robert w Jennings and the case continue1 until 10 a. m. tomorrow. at which at torneys will present their arguments Four witnesses were called for the plaintiff while the defense offered no testimony.
 The case involves the payment of some $305 alleged to be due Mrs Edith Sheelor for services in the of flee of Dr. L. o. Sloane, Territorial Health Commissioner. for which vouchers were approved by the then Governor. Thomas Riggs, and war. rants issued from the office of Terri toriaI Secretary. and later cancelled payment. In letter introduced in the hearing. the Treasurer in return ing the vouchers to Secretary R. J Sommers. held that no fund existed for payment of the vouchers
 The contention of the plaintiff is to the effect that payment should have been made by the Treasuras out of the emergency fund under the control of the Governor. In support of it's contention, a deposition Of former Governor Riggs was intro dmced showing that he had approved vouchers for the service of Mrs Sheelor and expenses paid by her rdo oI fO ho retary's office. R. !. Sommers. a. that time holding office as Terri torial Secretary, testified that he had received the vouchers and is sued warrants to cover the amount covered by the vouchers. These war rants. he said, were forwarded by him to Treasurer Smith with the vouchers Later the Treasurer re- turned the vouchers and advised him that the warrants had been cancelled on the ground that no funds for payment were available. Mir. Smith testified that he had received vouch CTS and warrants and had cancelled the warrants and returned the vouch CTS to Secretary Sommers. He also testified relative to the procedure in handling payment of warrants. George w. Folta, Secretary to the Governor testified to the appoint ment of Dr. l.. O. Sloane as Territor- ial Health Commissioner. Mrs Sheel- or testified that she. had signed the vouchers covering the services men toned and expenditures made by her for certain items of expense at tached to the office. No evidence was put in by the defense.
 | Prior to the beginning of the hearing this morning, the defense made demand for trial by jury, which was overruled by Judge Jeunings, who held that there had been noth- ing presented up to that time whf'h called for action by jury.

POPULAR SPORT IN PANAMA
Duel 10 the Death Between Bull and
Jaguar Is Considered Height
Of Entertainment.

The Panamaniac who is real sport
delights in nothing SO much as fight
between jaguar and bull. One must
visit the isthmus to see this particular
kind Of sport.
An enormous cage, strongly built of
scantllngs and iron bars, is placed in
the center Of the ring ordinarily used
for bill fights. A bull is placed in.
side Of it and presently one Of the
huge South American cats: is wheeled
up In smaller cage and introduced
into the barred Enclosure. The latter
is about ten feet high. with twice that
length and breadth.
In the fight which then ensues the
bull Is victorious usually. Not more
than once in ten such contests does
the jaguar prove the victor. This
would not be the case If the animals
were not restricted to so narrow a
space; but the big cat, being obliged
to rely mainly upon its activity. does
not have fair chance.
Nevertheless, the duel greatly de-
lights the spectators. The fair Pana-
manicures Shrek with excitement, and
the little Panamanikins rend the air
with yells. ~ s.s. ~ *:,.-.
