E2 Paso, June 25.—The new
wife of Phil (Red) Mohoun,
aviator for the rebels during
the recent Mexican rebellion,
Monday was arranging to have
the marriage annulled, and
friends of Mohoun said that he
probably would let her have
her way.
Mohoun met Alice Sparks,
pretty El Paso resident, Satur-
day. They met again Sunday
at Juarez. Something that
the orchestra played or the
waiters served brought a pro-
posal of marriage, a 60-mile
drive to Las Cruces, N. M., and
nuptials.
Monday the aviator’s bride
recalled that she had another
husband, whom she described
as Murray Boucher, living In
Chicago.
Mohoun also had been mar-
ried before, but he explained
that he had taken the pains to
secure a divorce.
CHOPS REPORT
CODERS TEXAS
Austin, June 24.—Texas’
cotton acreage has been in-
creased two per cent this year
and the condition of the crop,
based on a survey, completed
June 15, is 74 per cent, George
B. Terrell, commissioner of ag-
riculture, said Monday in the
first report of the season cover-
ing state agricultural condi-
tions.
“Boll worms and cotton fleas
are reported in some sections,
and too much rain has fallen in
more than one-ha'f of the
state,” the resume said. “Some
cotton was lost by floods and
by abandonment due to foul-
ness. When the abandoned
acreage finally is reported, it .
may reduce the acreage to last
year’s figures. Present indi-
cations do not point to a larger
production than last year’s.”

BLOCK EFFORT
TO REVIVE ACT
N EXTRA MEET
Austin, June . 24.—A state
income tax was definitely eli-
minated from consideration by
the present called session of
the legislature Monday when
the hoqse of representatives re-
fused to print on a minority re-
port the proposed state income
tax law. The vote was 55 to
59.
By passing a motion to re-
consider and table the bill, the
house precluded all possibility
of the measure coming up
again in this session. Being a
revenue bill, it must originate
in the house and by tabling the
1 motion it was made . parlia-
mentarily impossible to bring
tile measure-up again.
Belief that a state income tax
would be the main issue in the
next state political campaign
was expressed by friends of the
bill Monday in arguing for
printing the bill on a minority
report. Opponents declared it
would be useless to print such
a “controversial measure” at
this stage of the session.
The bouse also made it pos-
sible for three bills already
signed to become laws sooner
by repassing them with emer-
gency clauses. They were the
four-cent gasoline tax bill, the
prison location bill and the an-
nexation bill affecting Houston
and Fort Worth.
Bills were finally passed in
the house correcting errors in
the state educational board bill
and the water improvement
law passed at the first called
session. The amendments to
the evidence clause of the
search and seizure law were
ordered printed by a vote of 81
to 26.
Debate of a resolution to
criticize a news association
article which purposed to fore-
cast what the senate would do
on charges against State Land
Commissioner J. T. Robinson if
impeachment charges were
voted by the house, took up the
day’s session in the senate. As
an outcome a resolution was
adopted urging that care be
exercised in such matters in the
future.

TA1HMEA5E BILL
Austin, June 24.—The house
repassed' the 4-cect gasoline
tax bill today in order to obtain
the 100 votes necessary to
place it in immediate effect
should the senate favor it.
When passed last Friday,
there were only 84 affirmative
votes. The vote today was 101
to 16.
The board of education bill,
passed by the first special ses-
sion, was amended to make the
caption conform to the body
of the law. The bill was sign-
ed by the governor, b.ut there
was a question about ;its vali-
dity because the caption pro-
posed the election of the super-
intendent of public instruction
