The wedding is said to he the cul-
mination of a romance of several
years. However, the guardian of the
lady was opposed to the marriage, as.
according to the will of the latter s
father she was not to become per own
mistress rtntii she was tw'enty-on**
years/if age. She is now onto' twenty,
so no consent could be obtained to
their union. Wednesday they met in
this city, and although the meeting
•was brief, still they found time to
plan for a subsequent meeting later
in the day, when Miss Scott went
over to Juarez, where she took up her
temporary abode with some friends.
Mr. Jocken returned to El Paso and
yesterday procured a marriage license
and retaining the services of Judge
Mitchell proceeded to Juarez. The
young lady was called for and as soon
as the carriage reached American soil
the marriage took place.
For a long time the young couple
kept up an occasional correspondence,
bin owing to the obstacles to their
union their letters were few and far
between. Finally, Mr. Jocken learned
by some means that the lady qf-ifia
choice would visit El Paso during the
bankers' convention. He then decided
to conic here and take definite steps
•s^' -'»in his bride. The meeting on
m«k* ft rest followed and thus fortune
tijpvured him in making the desirdd ar-
Wangement* before any opposition
, flboiild intervene.
I It is saiil that the bride is possessed
of considerable wealth in her own
name. She is a bright and attractive
appearing brunette, and is a lady of.
refinement aud culture. She came
here with her guardian, who is presi-
dent of a bank at Houston. She re-
cently returned from a trip abroad.
Mr. Jocken is quite well known tu
this city, where he has made f requent
visits. He represents, a large business
house with headquarters at Denver.
Last evening Mr. and Mrs. Jocken
had another marriage ceremony per-
formed, the Rev. H. A. Hulbotter of
the Herman Lutheran church officiate
ing. After the ceremony a tempting'
wedding spread was enjoyed at the
Angelus, at which hotel the young
couple are now stripping.

Corpus Christi, Is at the
hotel with his wife and a partv of
friends and relatives. Among those
accompanying him Is his brother. Dr.
Howard Spohn. who is also a well-
known surgeon in the United States
Marine Hospital service, hut who is
in charge of the work at Ponetongui
shen. Canada.
Dr. Arthur E. Spohn is intensely in-
terested in the quarantine situation,
and. In fact in all kinds of sanitary
work. He stated last night that lie
was here as a private individual and
in no wise concerned with tit* affairs
of the United States Hospital service
or commissioned by the department to
come to Mexico on any mission con-
nected with the service.
As a citizen of Texas, ho stated,
however, that the people of that state,
t-specially along the border, did not
think that Dr. Tabor, the state health
officer, should have taken the steps
he did in quarantining against Mex-
ico. They regarded it as an unwar-
ranted. foolish and impolitic move and
calculated to place the state health
department in a bad light. Ho said:
“We people, who really know the
situation as it exists in Mexico, feci
certain that there is no danger in com-
ing to this country. They know the
authorities of the Mexican health de-
partment are doing all they can to
suppress the disease and that their
efforts are meeting with success we
have no doubt.
“It has been some years since m'"
last visit to the (Tty of Mexico and
i am giiid to say that I have noted the
greatest improvements in Its sanitary
condition. I have observed the pave-
ments on many of the business thor-
oughfares and I have found that they
are kepi extremely clean. 1 have
traveled a great deal In my life, and
1 can say truthfully as a person who
observes sanitary conditions, espe-
cially the cleanliness of the streets,
that the City of Mexico is the mokt
cleanly I have visited. I mean that
the streets that I have seen arc -sur-
prisingly clean.
“Those of us who have spent a great,
deal of time in Mexico and know the
situation as thoroughly, know that
Mexicans are more apt to overdo tiie
sanitary regulations than to be lax
about their performance,
j “It is a very unfortunate thing that
j this quarantine should nave been
| placed mi Mexico just at. this time,
j for it prevented scores of Americans
i who wanked to spend their money in
; Mexico, seeing the Fifth of May fes-
| tivities, from coming to this country.
