ty points, Two of the.victins of
the storm were Mr.. and Mrs. J. A.
Glaize, who lived alone. tTogeth-
er they were worth at least $780,
600 in bonds, stocks, and notes.
Each kept q separate estate and
transacted affairs separately.
They left no will, but each had
agreed with the other that the one
surviving should be sole heir to
the others property. The point
at issue is, did the two die at the

Glaize assert she breathed few
times after she was removed from
the wreck of the home, and that
consequently they inherit the en-
tire 100000. Mr.. Glaize's rela-
tives assert that both died at the

be engaged on both sides, and the
fight will be a long and expensive
one. So it isn't hard to predict
who will finally be the heirs to the
estate-it will be the "eminent

STRAW FAST REPLACING wooD.
Many Uses to which the Refuse OF
the Grain Field In Being Put.


The serious inroads upon the timber for
ests Of this country OF late years has d.
rected attention to the probable exhaustion
of that source Of lumber supply, and sci
entists have set about devising substitutes.
One Of these that promises to be satisfac-
tory Is the invention Of New York man.
The basis of the substitute Is straw, which,
with certain chemical combinations, pro-
duces a material cheaper and more durable
than wood. This new material, which Is
very solid In structure, can be nailed,
screwed. sawed and generally manipulated
as easily as lumber. and II Is expected to
work revolution in the matter of interior
construction.
It Is said that the chemically prepared
straw has been tried and found to be high
ly satisfactory by railroads companies,
blackboard manufacturers, makers Of pic
ture frames and packing boxes, by dec
Grating artists and others. For all prac-
tical purposes, 1t Is the same thing as lum-
Der, but with these important differences,
that 1t Ii very much cheaper and lasts
longer Every year the forests of Amer
lea are diminishing to lamentable degree,
and the forestry question has become one
OF the most serious ones confronting the
country. If all that is claimed for the
substitute for lumber Is true, the impor-
lance of the invention can scarcely be
overestimated. and It deserves to rank
with such other productions of mans ge-
MUS as the electric light, the cotton gin
and the telegraph.
The inventor OF straw lumber, II is
said. only succeeded in perfecting his in
vention after twelve years of experiment.
ing. The new material has. however, been
in practical use, although in email way,
for a considerable time. and the knowl-
edge of 1t thus obtained would seem to
demonstrate its value thoroughly.

skeletons over which the sunhght
dances.
