'■■:,'- ,'■'■■ ' - MRS. YERKES AND HER YOUNG HUSBAND. ■■ It is reported that the Yerkes-Mizncr ro- | mance has come to a sudden termination. . Mr. Mizner having, it is said, left his - \ bride, -who, it will bo remembered, was the widow of the late Mr. Yerkes, " the Railway King." A few weeks after the , death of her first husband a. New 'York ,0 journal ' announced that the widow 'had taken as a second spouse Mr, Mizner, » , young Californiun. Interviewed on the ' subject, this gentleman declared that the ,* r report was quite true, but Mrs. Yerkes, on being questioned, asserted that it was false and had caused her much annoyance. 'I" 9 „ parties persisted in making contradictory statements, to the great bewilderment of ; the American public. Finally, the lady, %m addressing a. gathering of the - reporter?i|||, from the balcony of her house with her husband by her side, blushingly admitted that they had been man and wile wr several weeks. : The separation now reported is said to be due to differences about /.j,. money matters.
