In the fall of tbe year 1S81, Lily the only daughter of the landlord Mar-tin- , of a hotel in Van Buren, Ark., became with a salesman, who gave his name as J. S. Copnghn, and hia hailing place as Massachusetts. After a short courtship they were married, the eveut taking place on August 15, 1581. About one month after Copaghn was recognized by a gentleman named Co bom, as a man whom he had known in Tuscumbia, Ala., as Copon. The resemblance was ao remarkable that he was prompted to write to his relatives in Tuscumbia in order to verify the correctness or falseness of his suspicions. Letters were returned which proved beyond the shadow .of a reasonable doubt that Copaghn and Copon were one and the same man, and it was also learned that he had shamefully deserted his wife and bride a short time prior to his arrival in Van Buren. This wife was Miss Fannie Weatberford, a cousin of the wife of an Hon. Clements C, Clay, and ' a Senator States leader in the cause of the confederacy. The duped woman's family had already begun to trace the antecedents of Copon, and had. ' learned that before going to Alabama he had been married in Georgia, that his lawful wife was dead and that the others were deserted. For. his matrimonial experiences in Georgia Cupon had served a term of four years in the penitentiary. When the higamist was released he proceeded to Tuscumbia and contracted a new alliance. Such was the story of Cupon as it was related to the parents of the destracted bride, and they lost no time in confronting Cupon with hio villainy. His denials were useless, the proofs against him were: overwhelming, i .) i and he disappeared, , HAMILTON . APPEARS. , Time went on and the girl, neither a widow, wife nor maid, met and was wooed by W. W. Hamilton, a resident of Fort Smith i a village five miles distant from Van Buren, Ha pressed his suit with all the ardor of a Southerner and, finally, she , succumbed, Eawyers were consulted, however, the history of Copaghn was unfolded to them and they decided that there was no legal barrier to their marriage. So they were married and in course of time they removed to Wichita, Kan., where Hamilton a brick-setteas .work secured In 1885, as a child,; Allie, was born, and although the coarse of love ran as smoothly as in most f bickerings were indulged in, and the old sore in the bosom of the woman was opened afresh by Hamilton Finalthe ly Hamilton disappeared, taking child with him; The'woman was prostrated on a bed of sickness, but as soon as convalescent she started on the trail and followed it with the persistency of a bloodhound. In the early part of this she found year, after months pf search, reconciliathem in Grand Junction, a tion took place, and for, three months they lived happily together.

The woman persisted in her story, and at laat, in order to protect Franks, aa w ell as to satisfy their own curiosity, they began to investigate. Letters were writ-te- a to people whoee addresses were fi'rnisheu by the woman, and a few days ago answers were received. They presented nroof positive, to their minda, that Copon, Copaghn and Franks were one and the same person. Letters writ ten oy uopon were enclosed, and also two photographs taken in Alabama were forwarded, which show the unmistakable features of Franks. Ex-May- or do-'lio- e FRANKS STOBY. In justice to Detective Franks it is only fair to state that he characterizes the whole 6 Lory a fabrication, and declares that he never saw the woman until she was introduced to him by Detective Ecklund. The story, of his numerous marriages he defies any and all interested to prove, and is equally postive that he has never borne any other name but that of Franks. He was married in this city seven years ago, but the old luck seems to have pursued him, for. about three months ago he commenced suit for divorce against hia pres ent wife and it is stdl ponding. 'Two lovely children ere the fruit ot the union. Mr. Franks gave the Tribune reporter a short sketch of his life yehterdav: lie served in the Union army during the closing years of the ltebellion, and after hostilities ceased, followed the occupation of an engineer on various Texas railroads. He abandoned the throttle to become a detective for the Texas & Pacific railroad, then be bacame as sistant marshal of Los Vegas, N.

He was employed at the mine in 1881-8the time Mrs. Hamilton alleges he married her under the name of Copaghn. In February, 1883, he arrived in this city, was married shortly after, and became engineer of the- Horr Silver shaft at Friecoi The old love for a detective's life proved too much for him, however, and when Ireland was appointed United States marshal for thi8iterritory,.'he apdeputyship. a plied for aud received' position he retained through every suc ceeding administration until ne resigned to conduct the detective agency which now bears bis name. Franks tells his story in a most convincing manner, and declares that his innocence of the crimes of which he is accused will be established at the proper time. It is to be hoped that the woman is mistaken, that Franks is not but at this (Writing the odds are fearfully against him. - 1 Copon-Copagh- n, OGDEN CARRIAGE WORKS.
