DON'T FALL FOR
SPANISH SW|NDLE
Americans Have Quit Going to
Spain to Rescue Wealthy
Imprisoned Princesses.

Prlncesses Names Of Famous
Women Long Dead.

Granada, Spain.-Americans have
quit coming to Spain in search Of the
beautiful and wealthy princesses i'm
prisoned in dark, damp tower by q
greedy uncle who Is anxious to annex
her fortune.
The historic old Spanish swindle ap-
parently has gone out of fashion in
the United States, but it is still in
vogue In other parts of the world
Germany has recently supplied quite
crop of kind-hearted gentlemen who
advanced money for the release of the
dark-eyed Spanish beauty who was
suffering in rat-infested cell and
slowly dying on diet Of bread and
water while the bats hovered about
her head and added to the terrors Of
her solitary confinement.
Beauties in Granada.
Granada has always been popular
center for the men who have con-
tributed to the relief of imprisoned
beauties. Washington Irving and
scores of lesser writer's have credited
Granada with having more beautiful
women than any other city in the
world.
The legend Of the Rose of the AL
hambra and the stories of the three
beautiful princesses, Zayda, Zorayda
and Zorahayda, hover about the Al
hambra and make it the natural ref.
uge for disappointed investors In dis
tressed beauty.
So 1t is not strange that searchers
for princesses should come to Granada
after having sought vainly for myth
cal castles in mythical mountains.
Most of the modern Spanish princesses
are being held captives in castles by
the sea. Castles by the sea are so
much damper, and then 1t is much
more romantic for rescue parties to
approach the rock coast in ships and
wave to the imprisoned princess, who
will promptly tear her clothing to bits
and make rope with which she will
lower herself from the gloomy tower.
Many of the impostors who are mar.

ors give their princesses the names Of
famous women who have been dead
for centuries. Moraymah and Aishah
