CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, March 12.— Though she has called ten men hus- band and has made thirteen trips to the marriage altar, Mrs. Alice L. Yocum is not yet convinced that marriage 1s a failure, according to a story she told newspaper men at Boone yesterday when her latest husband, John Yocum, obtained a © divorce from her on the grounds of eruel and inhuman treatment. He alleged that she threw bric-a-brac at him and chased him from the house | ail at the point of a revolver and threat- emed to kill him if he ever returned. He remained away, Mrs. Yocum's matrimonial career began at Clinton, Iowa, about eighteen years ago when she was married to Ea‘ Curtis, a clairvoyant and mind reader.
