FATHER OF PRINCESS
DIED At CHICAGO
Letter Received Here Yesterday Indi-
Gates That Albuquerquean Died
While ON Honeymoon

Sofre Alexander, whose estate COM
prises the greater part of Martinez
town and who at one time owned 500
lots in north Albuquerque, died April
- in Chicago while enjoying his third
honeymoon. The particulars of the
CO ath have not reached Albuquerque
Meager information regarding the
death came yesterday in letter to a
local attorney. The letter was writ
ter by a nephew, who wished TO
learn something of his uncle's family
and property. The cause of death is
also unknown here, and the news was
as startling as was the news of his
marriage TO Chicago woman a few
weeks ago.
When Alexander left Albuquerque
a couple of months ago, he told no
one of his intentions. The first intl-
nation any one here knew Of his
whereabouts was the announcem ent
OF his wedding. He had been a Wild
over about six months. The name
OF the woman was not learned here
hut contrary to Information that il
was Il girl of IS, the letter received
yesterday indicates that she was an
elderly woman His property inter-
ests are believed to be enormous. Tn,
letter failed to mention whether the
deceased merchant left a win but it
Is believed that he did.
He was divorced from his first
wife. The second one died a few
months ago.
Alexander is believed to have been
over so years old. In the early days
ot San Francisco he was a prosper
Gus corset manufacturer there and
married the first Mrs. Alexander
against her will, it is said. They came
here in the early SOS, and for many
years Mr.. Alexander conducted a
store on North Second street and
dealt largely in real estate. He at
one time owned the greater part Of
the north side of the city and was
reputed TO have been worth half d
million dollars. He lost much Of his
property In lawsuits. During recent
years ne has built up another small
fortune in Martineztown small viii
lage mile northeast of the city. The
Princess de Brogle is believed to be-
living in Paris, second daughter
lives i'm California. The divorced wife
is a resident of san Francisco.
