FLORENCE HALLS CLAIM,
Says That Comedian Florence Was Her
Father and She Wants Some of His Money

Father and She Wants Some of His Money.
CHICAGO. Jan. ga San Francisco dispatch
SAYS: Miss Florence Hall will soon bring
suit in the supreme court Of this city TO
obtain her share of an estate left by the
late William J. Florence, who died last
November The estate is reputed 70 bs
worth between S2j0.OO aud S3OO.O00. all of
which he left To his wife. The late Mrs. NJ. A.
Hall reared Miss Hall with her own three girls
ana one boy. She told Miss Florence several
years ago that she was not her mother, but
that her father was ". J. Florence. the actor.
Miss Hall was born in this city twenty-three
years ago. W. J. Florence was here about that
time. Mrs. Hall told her foster child that she
would not say then who her mother was, but
even went so far TO show checks which she
claimed the actor had sent her for the support
of Florence. Mrs. Hall during the latter years
of her lite kept a lodging house on Post street
aud Miss Florence lived with her ms her daugh-
tea and went to school She assisted Mrs Hall in
conducting the lodging house and left San
Francisco about three years ago and opened a
lodging house in Butte. Mont. She sub
sequeatly went TO Chicago. where she has
resided ever since. Owing TO the
fact that she has several relatives in
this city whom she does not wish TO interfere
IN the prosecution of her SUIT, her coming mere
was kept secret. There Is a striking facial
resemblance between Miss Florence aud the
late Mr.. Florence, and there Is no family
semblance between Miss Florence and the Hall
children.

FALL FESTIVITIES.
81. Leuis Extends q Cor dial
WelcO me 10 All.

The city OF St. Louis has become
famous the country over through the
agency Of her annual Fall Festivities,
and from that source has gained the
sobriquet Of the Carnival City Of
America"
For the season Of 1899 all previous
efforts in the line Of entertainment
will be ecllpsed. The great St. Louis
Exposition will throw its doors open
TO the public Wednesday, September
18th, and will continue TO entertain
and delight thousands during a period
extending over forty days. One of
the chief attractions announced BY
the management is the engagement
Of Col. P. S. Gilmore and his world
renOwn band, one hundred strong.
The illumination by gas and electric
ity Of the streets will extend over
larger area and be on grander scale
than any similar exhibition ever at
tempted In the world. The thirty
second great St. Louis Fair and Zoo
logical Gardens, Oct. 3rd to Sth, whose
fame has been heralded broadcast,
will be one of the main attractions Of
that week, and as has been customary
for the last thirteen years the Yelled
Prophet will again appear in his fav-
Orite city, on the evening Of Tuesday,
October 4th. The hotel accOmmOda-
tions Of st. Louis have been material
ly increased since last year and strang-
era are assured Of hospitable treat
ment.
The Missouri Pacific Railway and
Iron Mountain Route, with their vast
network Of lines extending over the
States Of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, Indian Territory, Arkansas,
the West, South and Southwest, in
order to encourage travel. have made
a remarkably low round trip rate from
points on their lines to st. Louis and
return during the Festivities.
For further information relative to
dates OF sale and limits Of tickets call
on or address any Missouri Pacific or
Iron Mountain ticket agent, who will
be pleased to furnish same.
