They took him west, showed him some line country, and, it is asserted, represented to him that the land he had seen v^as what he was getting but they deeded him, it is alleged, a lot of worthless land in western Kansas, in return for which Gray deeded them his three valuable farms in this state. Gray sold all his personal effects and migrated to Kansas, only to learn of the great fraud that had been practiced upon him. He was so grieved at his loss, and it so preyed upon his mind, that he is to-day a mental wreck. His wife has been appointed his guardian, and will immediately commence proceedings to recover the lands.

TO STOP THE FIGHTS.

Mexican Authorities Will Prohibit Cominji Vugllisllo Kvont«. City of Mexico, Jan. 30.—Secretary of the Interior Cozio has declared officially that the government will rot permit the prize fights that are advertized to take place at Juarez. The secretary has wired the state government at Chihuahua to prohibit the efforts to bring off the fight, saying that they must not be allowed under any conditions. He directs, if necessary, that 500 rurales (rural troops) be sent to Juarez to prevent the advertised contests. This settles the chances of bringing off the fistic battles, so far as concerns Mexican soil. The only chance the promoters of the events have left is to bring them off on United States soil.
