ZAcATECAs. Mexico. July 5.-Frank G. Law
son. an American mechanic OF his city, has
been placed In Jail on II peculiar charge. 1t Is
that OF exceeding the limits prescribed by
Mexican law still In force In this state regulat-
Ing matrimony. Lawson came here about four
years ago from the City Of Mexico. bringing
with hi m a pretty spanish woman rs. his wife.
She died two months aft er their arrival. and
Lawson took unto himself another young wife.
This woman also soon died. and the American
continued to exercise his matrimonial pro-
pensit tiles ut n rate that ustoundei tho native
population of Zncatecas. particularly as none
of the women lived longer than TIVE or three
months alter becoming the bride OF Lawson.
, Tie latter never wore tho weeds longer than
three months after the demise OF one Of his
wives when he would repeat the matrimonial
experiment The people Of this city are very
conservative in Ruch matters and they let
Lawson alone with his remarSabe and unfor-
tunnte domestic affair unit thro" days ago.
when it was learned he had married his tliir-
teenth vito since his arrival in Iacatecas
The authorities began working on the case.
and AS there was no evidence ut hand going to
show that his twelve previous wives had died
from other than natural causes. he WAS ar
rested under the law enacted many years ago.
which prohibits man entering into the mat
rimonial state more than n no times
Lawson therefore has four offences to an
swer for. and vii probably receive long time
In prison. He Is about 40 years OF age and
well educated. He has resided In Mexico for
fifteen years.
