ABOUT LADY BEREsFORD.

ABOUT LADY BERESFORD.
Lady Beresford's seclusion from So
Getty for some months past has natural
Is caused comment in London society,
and rumors that the reason for it was
tae expected arrival of an heir, have
.9ng been going about. These are now
c0uirmed.
Lady William B.resford, who was
formerly the Duchess of Marlborough,
aai before that Mrs. Louis Hamersley,
OF New York, is at present at her
country seat, Deepdene, where she is
living in retirement, declining invita-
TONS even to family gatherings. AL
though forty-three years of age she is
childless.
The little one, whose advent is anx-
iously looked forward to, will not only
inherit small fortune, but one of the
most illustrious names in all England.
When the Dowager Duchess of Marl
borough married Lord William Beres-
ford a few years ago many of her ac-
quaintances in this country who are
not familiar with Burke's Peerage
were amazed. They considered she
had come down in the socia. scale in
reuouncng the title of duchess for that
of lady In reality, she made most
brilliant alliance, for as the wife Of
Lord Beresford her position in English
society was bettered, for her husband
belongs to family older tnan the
Churchills, and is one of the most pop
ular men in the Prince OF Wales's set,
Lord William is about forty seven
years old, and holds record in the
British army not surpassed by genera
tions of fighting Beresfords During
the Zulu war he won the most coveted
honor to an Englishman, the Victoria
Cross, which is only bestowed for gal
lantry and bravery.
Lord William is Lady Beresford's
third husband. she was Miss Lillian
Price, of Troy, n. Y, when she mar
ried the late Louis Hamersley. He
left gu estate valued at S7,000,000 BY
the terms of his will she receives the
income of his estate for life. The
whole estate, both real and personal,
reverts to the son of his cousin, J.
Hooker Hamersley. a few years after
Mr. Hamersley's death his widow mar
ried the late Duke of Marlborough,
father of the present duke, who since
married Miss Consuela Vanderbilt.

THREW KISSES AT A VISION.
The contest over the will of William
lvison, the school book publisher, was
before Surrogate Arnold in New York
on Tuesday. The will left most of the
estate to a nephew, David B. Ivison, Of
Rutherford, \. J. The contestants are
Edward Ivison, a brother, who lives in
California; John G. Ivison, nephew,
and Jane l. Williams, a niece. Mr..
lvison, who was so years old at his
death last spring, left about 100000.
Some of the allegations are that he
loved money so that he used to fopdle
and kiss it and that he used to boast
that his wife had worn one bonnet nine
years. He had often said that the shop
windows on Broadway should be closed
so as to prevent women from being in
duced TO spend their husbands money.
Mrs. Annie E. Mccarthy Holt testi.
tied on Tuesday that Ivison was &C.
centric and easily influenced. For
years after the death of his wife he
used to say he saw visions of his wife.
%nom be called his Angel Caroline ;,
4 "hen ne saw one of these visions he
would throw kisses at it. He some
times asked Mrs. Holt if she wouId
marry hm, aud when. to get rid of
n,m' she would say yes" in iokinp
way, he would soon after tel, ber !,
would not do, as his "Anga, 90 Caroi;na. Iv, :.
@ nau returned to him, Other evidence
WAS laken and the hearing adjourned

NO SEA SERPENT.

r. l.. Ditmars, the young snake sharp
of the American Museum of Natural
History, lectured last night to an audi
ence of 500 young men and women aud
boys and girls, at Grammer School 96,
Avenue A and Eighty-frst street. The
lecture was about snakes, aud he had a
score or go of live specimens to illustrate
it. 1t was the women and girls who
showed the greater interest IN the
specimens. A rattler and the copper
head were the only dangerous reptiles
shown.
Mr.. Ditmars defended snakes general
ly and said that great deal was said
about them that wasn't true. They
were, most of them, he said, useful to
men, particularly to farmers, making
their meals on animals tlat are
pests of the farm.
Incidentally Mr.. Ditmars knocked
spots out of some snake stories.
Snakes seventy and eighty feet in
length" he said, "are unknown to
science. Twenty-Five feet is the great
est length of any of the snake family"
Mr.. Ditmars also afnihilsted the sea
serpent. Science, he said, had revealed
no evidence that the sea serpent exist
ed anywhere in creation, The aquatic
sDakes that really did exist we're not
sea serpents either in extraordinary
size or in any of the other marvellous
traits attributed to the sea serpent in
sailor yarns or the stories that drifted
to town from Newport and Nantucket
every summer.
The boys and girls crowded around
the lecturers exhibition table when he
concluded and peered curiously at the
snakes. Mr.. Ditmare had the rattler
and the copperhead safely slowed away
IN bag before the rush began.-N. Y.
