which no doubt will cause much sur.
prise has just been revealed here.
1t Is that Senator Tabor and Miss
Lizzie McCourt, of Oshkosh, Wis,
were privately married In this city ON
the 3d. of Last September. The
ceremony took place In the law office
Of d. P. Dyer, who is an intimate
friend Of the ~senator, 1t was per-
formed by John M. Young, n justice
Of the peace, and was Witnessed by o
brother of Miss McC ,ur:, who accom-.
panied her to st. Louis for the pur-
pose. 1t Is stated, on the authority
of Col. Dyer, that the ceremony was
kept q secret because at that time,
although Tabor had been granted q
decree Of divorce from his first wife, she
had q suit against him for alimony,
and 1t was feared that an announce.
ment of this marriage during the
pending of the suit might complicate
matters. Tabor's visit here was osten.
sibly to attend some law business,
but II h pretty clear the meeting WA
pre-. arranged. He returned at once
to Denver, and hia wife went back Il
her home in Oshkosh. Why the mar.
riage should hive taken place whom Il
did or why there should have been Z
