Judge Postponed Divorce. The incident aroused Mr. Hoxamer's emotions and a sult for a divorce re-| sulted. The sult was sent to ex-Judge Roger A. Pryor as referee. Judge Pryor has certain old-fashioned ideas about the way in which divorce actions should be ‘sonducted and he sald he would not tolerate ‘estar chamber’ proceedings. ‘The case was indefinitely postponed. vw Mra. Hexamer was the daughter of Peter Fuchs, @ wealthy New York man. He wanted his daughter to mar- ry Mr. Hexemer, but she didn't feel Mee tf at the time, and married Dr. Schierath, of the New York Board of Health, Later, she realized the wisdom of her father's‘ advice and married the man of bis cholce, Then the coachman, Gustav Grieger, needed $2,000, and because Mrs. Hex- amer refused to give it to him tipped Mr, Burgstaller out of the cab one dark night when he was returning from | Hoboken to New York, At the time Mr. Hexamer merely | sald that Gelger was a loafer who had wrossly insulted his talented friend Mr. | Burgstatier. “I, too, think he {s a great loafer,’ said Burgstaller when interviewed on} the subject.
