mrs. BRAND SAYS
SHE TOLD HUSBAND
OF HERPAST LIFE

NEW YORK. Sept I4.-Mrs. Gen
evieve Florence Hanan Brand,
against whom her husband, James
H. Brand. has brought an action for
the annulment OF their marriage, on
the ground OF fraud. declares that
the latter's love for her had seemed
to cool soon after their marriage, and
that his complaint that he did not
know OF her past was false. She
states that she told him that the
name ''Millionaire Kid" which was
sometimes given to her. was not war
ranted by her fortune, and that when,
after their marriage, he had sug-
gested that she turn over her AFFAIRS
Affairs to turn over.
Mrs. Brand was expected TO testify
In supreme court yesterday in the
preliminary examination before the
trial being conducted by Mr.. Brands
attorney. She did not appear. but
Issued a statement through H. J. 4
F. z. Goldsmith, her attorneys, In

Mrs. Brand said she had nrst met
Mr.. Brand at the Biltmore Hotel
while she was being entertained by Q
girl friend and her aunt She said
she returned to Chicago. where Mr..
Brand wrote her not TO send him such
formal letters, and then went TO
Tampa to see q sister, where Mr..
Brand came to see her.
During that trip he was wonderful
to me and was very much hattered,"
she said.
'He asked me to become his wife.
We had quite q wonderful talk, and !
told him lots OF my life. He was
simply wonderful and wouldn't even
listen
"FinaIiy he went to New York and
came back with an engagement ring
and q wedding ring. I didn't expect
this and told Mr.. Brand that he must
listen to me and think things over.
| told him OF my previous marriage
and gave him distinctly to understand
that was not . girl of wealth, AMI
told him Of mny personal things I
thought he should know before ma
rtage. / told him about my heart
aches and about the whitney affair.
He replied BY taking me In his arms
and saying:
Frances, / don't care about any
OF this. It makes no difference. I
love you and can take care Of you
ThOssht She was Lucky.
''of course, I thought was a lucky
girl and fortunate 10 have such .
wonderful man to love I begged
him to allow me to study a while,
but he replied, No, Frances, marry
me now and study aftervard'"
Mrs. Brand said little incidents be-
gan to make her doubt her husbands
love. II could hardly believe that he
did not really love me-" she con-
tinued, for he said, Don't feel bad
ly about your wedding present. my
dear. ! have ordered you an auto
mobile, but the factory Is on strike.
Well, the thought was sweet enough
and was happy"
Mrs. Brand says she Is now con-
WINGED that Mr.. Brand did not marry
her for love. Recently, she said, he
had had her watched by detectives
to her great embarrassment.
'MT. Brand 10 trying to get an an
nuiment OF our marriage on the
ground that he did not know my

THE STRANGE JOURNEY
INTO BUKOWINA BEGINS.

" DOhO W Ina DL3AANON
The strange driver evidently heard
the words, for he looked up with q
cleaning smile. The passenger turn
ed his face away, At the same time
putting out his two fingers and
crossing himself. "Give me the Herr's
luggage" said tho driver; and with
exceeding alacrity my bags were
handed out and put In. the caleche.
Then I descended from the aide Of the
coach, a. the caleche wss elose
alongside, the driver helping me with
a hand which caught my arm In .
grip OF steel; his strength must have
been prodiEious. Without q word he
shook his relns, the horses turned,
and we swept into the darkness Of
the Pass. As l looked back I saw
the steam from the horses OF the
coach by the light OF the lamps, and
projected against it the figures Of
my late companions crossing them
selves. Then the driver cracked his
whip and called 70 his horses, and off
they swept on their way to
Bukovina- As they sank into the
darkness / felt . strange chill,
and q lonely feeling came over me;
but q cloak was thrown over
my shoulders, and q rug across my
knees, and the driver said In excel
lent German:
"The night Is chill, Tnein Herr, and
MY master the Count bade me take
all care OF you These II q hAsk OF

little strangely, and not 4 little fright

alternative should have taken II, In
stead OF prosecuting that unknown
night journey. The carriage went at
q hard pace straight along, then we
made a complete turn and went along
another straight road. II seemed to
me that We were simply going over
and over the same ground again; and
so took note OF some salient point.
and found that this was so. I would
have liked TO have asked the driver
what this all meant, but I really
feared to do so, for I Thought that,
placed aS ] was, any protest would
have had no effect in case there had
been an intention TO delay. BY and by,
however, as I was curious TO know
how time was passing, I struck Q
match, and by its hame looked at my
watch; IL was within a few minutes
OF midnight This gave me q sort OF
shock, for I suppose the general
superstition about midnight was In
creased by my recent experiences.

IN A WIERD DREAM.

Suddenly, away on our left. saw .
faint niekerinG blue nanoe. The driver
saw II at the same moment: he at
once checked the horses and. jumping
70 the ground, disappearsd into the
darkness I did not know what TO
do, the less ~ the howIing Of the
wolves grew closer: but while won

again. and without q WORD took his
seat and We resumed our Journey. I

kept dreaming OF the incident, for Il
seemed 10 be repeated endlessly, and
now looking back, II ls like q sort OF
awful nightmare Once --.s fame ap-
peared 90 near the road that even in
the darkness around Us could
watch the drivers motions. He went
rapidly 20 where the blue dime arose
1t must have been very faint, for IL
did not seem to illumins the place
around Il at all-and gathering q few
stones, formed them into some device.
Once there appeared . strange optical
effect; when he stood between me and
the flame he did not ohstruct Il, for
/ could see its ghostly flicker all the
same. This startled me. but as the ef-
feet was only momentarY. ] took Il
that my eyes deceived me straining
through the darkness. Then for a
time there were no blue flames, and
we sped onward through the gloom,
with the howiing Of the wolves
around Us, as though they were fol-
lowing In . moving circle.
