Wildwood n. J., Aug 20.--In a fu-
tile effort to save the life of w Brook
Lessig, well known Philadelphia
lawyer, with whom she was swimming
in the surf at Wildwood Crest lake
today, Miss Virginia Paul, one of
the leaders in the younger set of Phil
adelphia society, was also drowned in
the swift ocean current.
Miss Paul was stepdaughter of
Clarence Jeffries, a Pennsylvania rail-
road official, and resided at Swarth-
more, Pa. She was about 2l years
old. She and Mr.. Lessig were guests
at the cottage of Morton z. Paul at
Wildwood Crest. They entered the
surf this afternoon at a point below
the regular bathing grounds and after
the life guards had gone off duty. Both
were expert swimmers and were soon
beyond the breakers. After they had
been swimming for some time mem
befs of the party on the beach noticed
Lessig throw up his hands as though
in trouble. At first they did not ap-
preciate his danger but soon noticed
Miss Paul swimming toward him. She
also waved toward the shore and ap-
peared to be calling ~ help. The
current seemed to be dragging both
swimmers further and further from
the shore. Realizing at last the strug-
gle which was going on before them,
those on the beach ran to the life saw
ing station and notified the crew. A
boat was hastily launched and an ef-
fort was made to reach the struggling
bathers. Lessig had disappeared from
view in spite of Miss Paul's efforts to
reach him. Miss Paul continued her
unequal battle with the surf but be-
fore the life boat reached her she too
had been swallowed up by the. huge
waves. Neither body has been recov-

ried Chin Ling in San francisco and

NORTHERN MEXICO IN
POLITICAL UNREST.
Trouble Feared Although Authorities
Have Situation Well in Hand.


Mexico City, Aug. 20.-A special
despatch from Monterey TO the Mexico
Daily Record says:
Not a weapon OF any kind could be
bought today. Half the men OF the
town are carrying concealed weapons.
Lodges of clandestine Masons, who
recognize General Reyes as chief, are
preparing a demonstration at Alameda.
Trouble is feared"
Mexico City, Aug. 20.-Special news
dispatches from various parts Of
northern Mexico agree that the situa-
tion throughout that region is one of
much political unrest. General Trevi-
no, newly appointed commander of the
third military zone, Is acting with
vigor and decision, and during the last
two days troops have been moved
quietly and swiftly to places where
they will be most needed in case of
serious disturbances.
The government has the situation
well in hand.
The trouble centers about the per-
sonality of General Bernardo Reyes,
governor of Nuevo Leon and formerly
minister of war. The Reyist party,
with branches in every state. has
named Reyes as a candidate for the
vice presidency in opposition to Ramon
Corral incumbent. who has been nom-
mated by the administration party.
One of the most dangerous elements
of the situation according to the Rec
ord despatch is the alleged called
meeting of all the clandestine lodges
OF Masons throughout the Monterey re-
gion. 1t Is asserted that these fraud
ulent Masons have pledged themselves
to support Reyes.
President Diaz is a 33d degree Ma
son and stands high in the estimation
of Scottish Rite Masons in the United
States. The special dispatches say
that no general order has gone forth
stopping the sale of firearms in Mon
terey. but none is to be hand at any
price. because the pawnshops and the
stores where weapons are kept have
sold out their entire stocks.
