MUST BOSS CARRENPAY
UNWfDDED WIFE 100000

NEW YORK. Aug. 11-Whether
Mrs. Minnie H. Dixon will finally
be the possessor of the 100000
awarded her by default Judgment
In the supreme court of Brooklyn,
only time can tell. Senator Pat"
McCarren insists tht she will have
to tell her story to IL good men be-
fore he will pay over the large sum
that was awarded by his non-ap-
pearance In court.
The small boy whom Mrs. Dixon
insists is the living image" of the
man she claims as her common
law" husband, is a pretty boy of 8
years. If the case ever comes to
trial, the features of this baby will
probably play strong part as "ex-
hibit A."
Mrs. Dixon herself is pretty
woman. She is refined in manner
speech and voice, unexpected as
this is in woman who has made
the public as she has. She is a
Canadian by birth, and has an old
er son by a former marriage. She
does not claim that Patrick Henry
McCarren, Jr., was a child of legiti-
mate wedlock. He was the result
of union that lasted several years
according to Mrs. Dixon, and she
only asked the aid of the courts
when the senator ceased to pro-
vide for her and small Pat.
Il love Senator McCaren as de-
votedly as any woman ever loved
her husband and the father of her
children" declared Mrs. Dixon,
when speaking of her strange suit.
my life for the last four years has
been wrapped up in him, and

want because he refused to recog-
nize me openly as his wife and our

THE CYPS|ES
MUST GO

Gypsies living at the north end
of the city must pull up stakes and
move their camp anywhere but
near Spokane. Chief Waller said
so this morning. The Romany
wanders are camped near a spring
and have made their home there
for the past three months. During
that time, it is charged, they en-
courage their young boys to fight
and pilfer while they themselves
make the night air hideous with
drunken carousals.
So many complaints have reach
ed the police of late that the chief
has lost patience.
Their women folks occupy small
holes in the wall on Main ave.
nue. and Stevens street where they
claim to tell fortunes. There have
been cases of pocket picking re.
ported by some of their patrons.
The men will be ordered to leave
at once, but the women will be al
lowed to remain until eptember 30
when their fortune teller" H.
censes run out unless the chief is
able to reach some understanding
whereby the city will pay back a
portion of their license money and
have them moved along with the
men.
