Louis A. Bryan, Gary Millionaire, Acquires Third Wife.

Louis A. Bryan, the Gary millionaire, whose wife obtained a divorce a year ago, saying she was tired of being “a rich man’s great, big, beautiful doll,” has married for the third time. The new bride is Minnie Harner, a Gary resident. The wedding took place in Los Angeles, Cal.-Mr. Bryan married Ethel Thayer, a nurse, shortly after the death of his first wife in 1910. A year ago she sued for divorce, asserting that she had been made a “clothes horse” upon which he could exhibit his wealth. She also said that, while she had plenty of diamonds, the cupboard was often as bare as that of the mythical "Old Mother Hubbard.”
