Alf @. Watson of this city was
we'll acquainted with BeresfOrd,
having visited him in Mexico
while buying cattle for Ell Paso
market several years ago. Mr..
Watson states that while at the
home of BeresfOrd he was treat
ed as a lord, and was shown
every favor possible. Mr.. Wat
son noticed that Beresford was
living with a negress and that
the two seemed very much at
tached to each other. Beresford
was a gallant rider, lover of fine
horses and hounds, and the ne
gress was a graceful rider and
went horseback riding with her
lord on many a trip following
hounds or cattle, and that the
two lived as far as comfort was
concerned, as a king and queen.

$4,000 HOTEL
The Plan to Erect the Big Hotel
Shaping Up.
Will be a Modern. Structure.

Again our hotel proposition
bobs up. This time Col. W. r.
Edison makes the announcement
that Alamogordo is soon to have
that fine hotel--a $75, 200 struc-
ture.
j. p. Amman, the contractor
and architect, will leave in a
few days for California to in
spect some of the California
hotel buildings in order to be
able to draw up the plans for
the Alamogordo hotel with all
the most convenient and modern
designs.
This hotel is to be located on
the block reserved for that pur-
pose which is a beautiful place
just east of the Southwestern de-
pot and opposite the city park.
Again we must congratulate
Alamogordo.
With the large Sanatorium
buildings now being built-and
additions to follow-and the big
hotel to be put under way at
once surely everything good is
coming our way.
Let it come.

LORD BRESFORD KILLED.
Had Lived With Negress as Man
and Wife.

FL Paso, Tex, Dec. 29.-An
outcast by choice, living in the
wilds of Northern Mexico ON one
of the biggest ranches in a coun-
try of big ranches, his only COM
panion a negress, who, it is said,
once saved his life when he was
a very sick man, Delaval Beres-
ford lived and died, though he
could just as easily have been
associating with the royalty of
Great Britain, for his father was
a nobleman and his brother is
one of England's best Admirals
and holds the title of Lord Beres-
ford, that belonged to the father
who begat them both.
Beresford did not die on his
lonely ranch. He was killed in
the 500 railroad wreck in Dakota
this week, but he had spent the
last fifteen years there and had
only been away a few days visit
ing his Canadian estates and was
returning home for Christmas
when he met his death.
Beresford was a peculiar char
acter, and, although worth sew
eral hundred thousand dollars at
the time of his death, dressed
in the simple garb of the plains
and lived a life as simple as any
/ of the Mexican poems who work
ed for him. Except for an oc-
casional trip to FL Paso, he had
no other diversion than riding
after his hounds on his big estate
and travelling between Canda
and Mexico, looking after his
cattle interests. He shipped the
cattle from Mexico to Canada
and fattened them near Medicine
Hat and sold them to Canadian
butchers. He looked after all
his own affairs.
Coming to America with a few
hundred pounds, he bought up
ranch lands in Mexico at COM
paratively nothing and stocked
them with blooded cattle. He
prospered and at present it is not
possible to appraise his estate.
He has two ranches alone in
chihuahua, one containing l60,-
900 acres and the other $4,000.
At the time of his death there
was on deposit in the First Ma
tional Bank in this city $4,000
to buy the smaller ranch, if he
decided to accept the terms.
His larger ranch was better
stocked and was worth at least
three times as much. He also
owned property in 81 Paso, New
Mexico and Canada, and had
cattle in New Mexico as we'll as
Canada and Mexico. His last
thoughts were for the welfare Of
the negress, Flora Wolff, and he
left two thousand pounds to heI
that she might pass the rest Of
