WAS VICTIM OF BOGUS
MARRIAGE, SHE SAYS
So Mrs. Hixon Secured a liz
cense and Married
Second Time.

The fact that a non-licensed min
lister, who called himself Rev. James
Meyers of Lorain, married her illegal
ly to John Franklin Hixon two years
ago was brought out Wednesday by
Mrs. John Franklin in a. statement
concerning her second marriage to
Mr.. Hixon at Massillon Tuesday by
Rev. Jacob.
81 thought when l was married to
Mr.. Hixon at the home of a friend
near Kent, two years ago, following a
separation between himself and his
his wife, that we were lawfully we'd"
said Mrs. HiXon.
about week ago word came to
ME that the man who married us the
first time was an imposter, so l set
about to prove the fact and found this
to be true. Then ! insisted on a sec
ond marriage, and Mr.. Hixon and my
self secured a license. Together We
went to Massillon and were there
married last Tuesday"
Mrs. Hixon seemed much affected
as she told her side of the affair last
night to a reporter, although she de-
clared she was innocent of any wrong
doing.

Spokane, Wash, Dec. 22.-(Spl)-
Glare-in-the-Sun, member OF the
Spokane tribe, whose forebears
hunted and fished and smoked, as they
were inclined, while their faithful
squaws prepared the food, tanned the
skins of big game and did other menl-
al tasks without a word of COM
plant, created no little sensation
among the old-timers in Spokane
when he appeared in Riverside ave-
nue. carrying a papoose with an ease
and Indifference seemingly born OF
practice.
His squaw, gowned in a bright
dress and shawl, walked by his side,
apparently unconscious Of any irregu-
larity, and judging from its smile,
the fat, copper-hued youngster shared
the satisfaction of his parents.

SORENESS CAUSED
BY NOMINATION
Bacon Confirmed as Ambassa-
dor in Senator Smiths
Absence.
TROUBLE BREWING
SPECIAL TO THE NEWS.

SPGClALI III I1H NEWS.
Washington, Dec. 22.-Predictions
were made around the senate today
that there will be an echo of the SEN
ate's action yesterday in confirming
the nomination of Robert Bacon as
ambassador to France.
Before ne left for his home in Mich
igan several days ago Senator Will
liam Alden Smith who had learned
that the President would send Mr..
Bacon's name to the senate, asked
that no action be taken on the nomi-
nation pending his return.
The. senate however, confirmed the
nomination. There was no objection
from any quarter. One or two sena-
tors, notably Senator Nelson of Min
nesota, had been disposed to oppose
the nomination but Senator Root S
pacific offices prevailed.
The usual course with regard to
combinations is to order the senate
clerk to report them to the president
after the intervention of the executive
session. The interim is supposed ia
give senators an opportunity to move
a reconsideration of the vote by which
confirmation was obtained.
But the urgent demand from the
White House and state department
to have Ambassador Bacon reach his
diplomatic post as soon as possible
moved the senate leaders to direct
the executive clerks to report the con
firmation to the White House without
waiting for the intervening executive
session.
1t was explained today that Senator
Smith may on his return direct that
tho president be asked to return Ba
con.

Distinguished Southern
ers Say Brokaw Didn't
Drink Much.
SPECIAL TO THE NEWS,

New York, Dec. 22-Things got all
mixed up in Mineola today and JUS
tice Putnam, who is hearing the case
of Brokaw against Brokaw, adjourn
ed court until tomorrow in order to
give John F. Mcintyre more time to
look for his law clerk, Edward Weiss,
who had disappeared with the stem
ographer's minutes.
w. Gould Brokaw, whose wife is
seeking a separation and alimony to
the amount of $500 month, was to
have been on the stand to tell his side
of the story of Fair View, Great Neck,
Paris, Tours, Fontainebleau and other
points of interest, but without the
minutes it was impossible to go on
and adjournment was taken just after
the noon recess.
The defense did manage to get in
little bit of testimony in the fore
noon however. The witnesses were
two southern gentlemen whose soft
black hats were noticeable even in
Mineola. First on the stand was Ma
jor Thomas Finch, former sheriff OF
Randolph county, N. c., followed
closely by Col. Archibald H.--Boyden,
former mayor of Salisbury, in the same
state.
There were no North Carolina gov
ernors. The witnesses however, were
willing to testify that with Brokaw
particularly before his marriage, il
had been long time between drinks
Major Finch besides being former
sheriff is vice president of a bank;
a. director in another, manufactures
of chairs and general manager of Bro
kaw's rather decent little shooting box
at High Point. Reluctantly he admit
ted that his salary as general man.
ager was $500 per annum.
Finch was brought north to testify
as to the value of the place which
by counsel for the plaintiff has been
described as magnificent shooting
preserve"
Take it from Major Finch, Brokaw
only owns about 1000 acres of second
growth pine in the North Carolina
hills and leases from mis- neighbors
some 10000 acres over which he and
his friends may hunt. But the farm
ers who own the land still farm and
Brokaw pays them only ten cents an
acre for the privilege of shooting
Finch declared most emphatically that
the property was assessed at about
S25 ,150, which was no doubt some $3.50
more than It, was really worth.
Col. Boyden gave Brokaw as good
a character as any witness yet and
