SHf GETS THE INSURANCE
MFRS. Strap WINS SUIT AGAINST
FIREMEN'S RELIEF AS
ISOLATION
HER HUSBAND WAS A FIREMAN
Fact That He Was Only a Substitute
Did Not Affect Legal Status
According to State
Laws.

Judge Lewis, of the district court, has
filed findings in the case of Mrs. Grace
Strap, widow of John ]. Strapp, against
the st. Paul Fire Department Relief as
ISOLATION, directing judgment for $1,500 in
favor of the plaintiff
Strap, it will be remembered, died
May "a last, of injuries received while
serving as a substitute fireman with En-
CINE Company No. s. on the order of the
chief. He had been a regular member
of the department, but resigned in 1894
For a short time he followed other avo-
cations but later served as a substitute
when opportunity offered.
He was a member of the defendant
association and the association did not
raise any question on the right of the
widow to receive the $500, under the by
laws of the association, from the general
fund
The association, however, raised a
question as to her right to the sum of
$1,000 out of the special fund, which IS
made up from moneys paid over by the
state and derived from the insurance
companies fees.
The association denied that Strapp was
fireman within the meaning of their
bylaws, since at the time of his death
he was only a substitute, and therefore
they questioned the widows right to
the money.
The court holds that Strap was a fire
man within the intent and meaning of
the state law, and that therefore, his
widow is entitled to the money from the
special fund.

The Woodworkers union was to have
met last night but adjourned for want

There is no new developments in con-
nection with either the painters or press
feeders strikes. Members Of both unions
turned up at Assembly hall yesterday
and held meetings. The painters claim
in which they say they have the support
of the trade. The press feeders have
failed so far in securing the sympathy of
the press men and it is said their re-
ference to the International union was
not entertained.

One was a tall man. He came forward
first, and Oh being asked what he wanted,
answered that it was his own business.
The shorter man then remarked to mis-
companions:
II bet he has lots of money
With that the big man seized the store
keeper and struck him.
Fine grabbed a large pair of scissors
and made lunge at his assailant. This
show of resistance scared the robbers and
they beat rapid retreat, with nothing

of certain creditors, who alleged that
Barnur1 and Hewitt have filed an in
correct inventory, have never made an
accounting and through mismanage-
mept have allowed property belonging
10 the estate to be sold for taxes
