Luis Vincentiri Shoots
Left in Better Style
Young South American is the Best
Prospect Among Young Light
weight Battlers.

New York Although beaten by
Johnny Shugrue, Luis Vincentini, the
South American, is still the best pros
pect among the young lightweights
Vincentini lost to Shugrue chiefly
through inexperience. On two oc-
casions he had the knockout conquerer
of Willie jackson in bad way but
didn't know enough to apply the finish
ing touch. Vincehtini showed marked
improvement with his left hand, indi-
eating that he is progressing in his
instructions under American trainers.
Vincentini's chief weakness when he
first appeared in America was his ten
dency to use only his right hand.

q TOLD YOU SO'..DOYLE

New York, April i.,--The sudden illness in Egypt of Howard Carter, co. .discoverer with the late Earl of Carnarvon of the tomb of Tutankh- amen corroborates the belief that there exists an elemental spirit in the tombs which takes revenge upon those who opened them, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle said today. He said Mir. Carter's illness lis very much more than a strange coincidence" coming so closely after the death of the Earl of Carnarvon from an insects bite.
 "It may be very well to record this as the bite of an insect or some other illness" he said but the fact remains that many men who have entered these toInbs have come to sudden death."

were but one man, High across the
chasm before them bulked the mighty
dam, the top of the solid mass of
masonry bathed in the last rays of the
setting sun.
A heart-rending cry of anguish
arose from their lips
| They had crossed frowning seas;
preached high hills and leveled them
they had wrested from the desert a
been bitter one. They had faced
the loss of their dear ones, wept their
tears, and plodded on again. Nothing
had daunted them. Now they looked
on Acklin's handiwork and their
hearts sank. 1t was the cunning of
the devil that confronted them.
Esteban recalled the words the Big
| Boss had often used to them:
Possession is nine points of the
law"
He had possession now. This gave
it to him.
A feeling of fatality grasped his
comrades. This thing of rock and
concrete crushed and destroyed their
spirit. Like the law and the ways
of God, Acklin and his dam were not
understandable to their primitive
minds.
Some Of them got to their knees
and prayed; others raised. their
hands to heaven and moaned OR bias
phemed. But above all sound arose
the croaking voice of old Ortega as
I, q, ar
visitation of God upon us for our
SINS"
The establishment of the Double A
men was equal to that OF the
Basques. To Melody, the dam was
only another evidence of Adkins
ability to get what he went after.
In Kildare it awakened strange
emotions. For one thing, it revealed
the Big Boss as he had seen him:
hard, uncompromising, ruthless. But
a sense of loss, a feeling of sadness,
that quite outweighed any considera-
ton of Acklin, filled him. Over and
over he asked himself what she was
going to do now. A glance at her
brothers face brought his question
home even more pointedly. What !
would Mercedes do now?
He had no thought of himself or of |
Melody And yet he must have real
lied how desperate was their plight. |
Out of all this, however. there came |
one sustaining thing; the utter col
dapse of Bodine. He was through, |
double-crossed. and in the very man.
ner in which Kent had predicted he
would be.
Blaze watched him. The man had
dismounted and was pacing up and |
down the dry creek-bed. Every ten |
Or twelve steps he would turn sud-
denly and, shaking his fist at the
giant wall pour out a string of curses
and threats that burned the air. He |
would have killed Acklin on sight in
MS present mood. Whenever he re-
