r. ID. HARRISON TO WE'D AGAIN.
Engaged TO Mrs. Mabel Judson Cox. whose
Divorce Now Becomes Known.

Henry l. Judson of llo Willow street,
Brooklyn, a member Of the Stock Exchange,
announced yesterday the engagement of
his daughter, Mrs. Mabel Judson Cox, to
Representatives elect Francis Burton Harri-
son. The wedding is to occur in the spring.
1t is said The fact that Mrs. Cox had
secured a divorce from her husband, DR..
Rowland Cox, Jr., ON December II, didn't
become known until after her engagement
was announced.
Mrs. Cox is now at Cannes, France, with
her mother and sister, Miss Helen Judson.
They left here six weeks ago. Mr.. Harri-
son sailed for France two weeks later,
and joined his mother, Mrs. Burton Hsrri-
son, who is also at Cannes. Mrs. Harrison
has given several entertainments at her
hotel which were attended by Mrs. Cox
and her mother and sister.
MIR. Harrison has been in mourning since
his wife, Mary Crocker Harrison, was
killed in an automobile accident in Long
elected to Congress from the Sixteenth
district this fall, but took no active part
in the campaign.
The records Of the Supreme Court show
that Mabel Louise Cox obtained an interlocu-
tory decree of divorce from Justice Bischof
signed by Justice Fitzgerald last week,
and makes it lawful for Mrs. Cox to wed
again while it forbids DR.. Cox to enter into
another marriage in the lifetime of the
complainant The papers in the case
were sealed by the Courts order. To
Mrs Cox was awarded the custody Of her
son. Rowland Cox, Sd, for nine months of
the year. until he is 7 years old. Aftsr
this his father is to have him fer five months
of the year.
DR.. Cox, who has an Office at AZ West
Forty-fourth street, wouldn't discuss his
wife's divorce yesterday. He lives in
Plainfield, N. j., where his father was a
prominent physician. He was married
to Miss Judson at the Second Presbyterian
Church, Brooklyn, on December IL, 1901.
They disagreed several years ago and
have since lived apart. In 1893 DR. Cox
was engaged to marry Elizabeth Eastman
Colgate Of Manchester, n. H. While
preparations for the wedding were under
way the young woman shot and killed her
self Her friends maintained that 1t was
accidental.
Mr.. Harrison is a lawyer and is vice
president of a realty company. He served
in the Spanish American war as Captain
of a cavalry company, and shortly after
he was retired, In June, 1900, he married
Miss Mary Crocker, daughter OF the late
Charles F. Crocker Of San Francisco, who
left his daughter s4,O00,00O. When Mrs.
II arrison died she left an estate of s., ,0s2 900,
to be divided among her husband and
two little daughters Mr.. Harrison was
a member Of the Fifty-eighth Congress
from the Thirteenth district, and was the
unsuccessful candidate for Lieutenant
Governor with D-Cady Herrick.

"La Damnatlon de Faust and "Carm en-
Given Again.
la Damnation de Faust" Hector Ber-
hoz's transmagnifed legend, was repeated
at the Metropolitan Opera House last night
before an audience Of good size. This is
an interesting fact, for at first it looked as
if Mr.. Conried's enterprise in producing this
work might not be rewarded. The cast is
a small one, and the character Of Berlioz' 8
music is not that which makes an appeal to
the general public. But the work is superbly
put on the stage, and it would have been a
pity II its combination OF good music with
striking pictures had not met with favor.
Mr.. Phncon's remarkable art in the role OF

OF this picture. We prefer Wilhelm .Funk's
Interpretation. The poet Glider, a more
ideal performance, is shown in e. o.
hosales's bust. II is suave and suggestive.
Two portraits that are bound to excite
comment by their individual treatment and
conception, not to speak OF the subjects
themselves. are those by Robert David
Gauley. The first, !" Reverie, No. 200, is a sat
isfying study in stuffs-old gold and rich
dark blue for contrast. The figure, a female,
full length, is posed sitting. The face s
expressive, the eyes in particular. The
hair is black. No search for prettiness is
limited at; the converse might be claimed.

Miss g." No. $40. II you can imagine a
miniature enlarged without the glassiness
and pettiness OF a miniature, together with
an undefinable eighteenth century high
bred air, you may recognize these attributes
IN this very attractive portrait. The young
woman has a long though not oval face,
ths hair is rich red brown, the eyes Of that
magnetic gaze one secs In the eyes OF old
Italian portraits. They fascinate, yet dis
turb. They are exotic, yet familiar. And
the furs, muf and boa Of a subtle mouse
hue are beautifully painted. II the Sloan
is the most original. II the Dougherty is
the strongest marine, then this portrait lie
the most striking. 1t Is all distinction. And
its rendering Of textures recalls Drouais

The bridge and the space before the
Magistrates desk in the West Side court
were so crowded yesterday m orning that
Magistrate Cornell was compelled several
times to ask the lawyers, policemen and
witnesses not concerned in the cases being
heard to step down. When the case OF
twelve men who were concerned in a wire

races was being heard Policeman Patton,
the bridge man, started to clear the bridge.
Louis A. Leavelle, one OF the negro lawyers
who frequent the court, refused to obey
the policeman and fingered at the desk.

and said

in again. Still scuffiing, the trio finally
Topped out of the court room into the
passageway leading to the prison. Court
operations were resumed, but the noise OF
kicks and bangings against the door indi-
Gated that Leavelle was still fighting.
Van >Keuren soon emerged to make two
complaints, one for disorderly conduct in
disturbing the court and resisting a police
man, and one for assault with felonious
intent. Van Keuren said that when Sergt.
Meehan OF the court squad was taking
Leavelle's pedigree the lawyer threatened
to punch Van Keuren in the nose. Later,
the policeman said, he was standing with
the hallway when Leavelle struck at him.
Magistrate Cornell adjourned the hearing
until Friday and paroled Leavelle in the
custody OF his counsel, Julius c.. Alyer,
another negro attorney in the court.
