Friends of Mr. and Mrs. Hover learned yesterday that the two had been living apart for nearly a year. Mrs. Hever and lier three children are iii Pittsburg, and Mr. I-lever is with the children of his first wife, in an apartment in upper Broadway. He is: recovering from the effects cf an op- eration performed three weeks ago. Mrs. Hevrr is the daughter of Mrs. Lucy Coleman Carnegie, and she be- came acquainted' with Mr. I-lever while he was training a saddle horse for her. He later went with the fam- ily to Pittsburg, where he was coach- man and groom. Mrs. I-fever's uncle, Andrew Cerne- gie, said at the time of the marriage that he would rather have his niece marry the coachman than a worth- less foreign duke, and ga*-.: the con-' ple a wedding present of £50,000.
