ficer, a diplomat and a philanthropist
will be formally accepted by congress
next month and will be the first mem

is highly praised by all who have seen
it.

Neqress Wants Title and Estate.

Mexico City, Jan. 29.-Declaring
that she was the common law wife
of the late Lord Delaval Beresford and
as such entitled under the Mexican
laws to a widows share of his vast
estate, Flora Wolf, a yellow, kinky-
headed 1egress, today instituted le-
gal proceedings through her attorneys
to establish her claim. The woman.
commonly known as Lady Florence
is now living on the 100, 900 acre Oil
tos ranch in western Mexico, where
she resided with the late English no
bleman for a quarter of a century,
and declares that she intends to re-
main il possession of the vast estate
until forcibly elected. In his will,
Beresford, who lied a millionaire, left
the negress $4,000 and the rest of
his property TO his brothers, Lord
Charles Beresford, admiral in the Bri-
tisn navy, and h marquis of Water
ford.
Following a quarrel with his family
Lord Delaval Beresford anne to Mex
leo when only 20 years of g and
up to the time of his death lived the
life of a social outcast, holding no
communications whatever with his re
latives. During all b years of his
residence in this republic the negress
who is now seeking to break his will
was almost his sole intimate compan-
ion.
Attorneys for the negress declare
that they have in their possession alb
undant proof that she was his com
mon law wife and that the legal es-
tablisnment of her claim is only a mat
ter of time.
