quests is that, according to the second will,

children of the testator upon the death OF

as in the first will. The new will also
changes the executor naming James w.

that office. The first will was dated De-
cember 16, 1891 and the second will bears
date of October 30, 1902.

gust, 1900, and providing that his son,

mainder of her natural life.

which the entire estate of the deceased is
bequeathed to his widow for the remainder
of her life, has been filed for probate. AT

DESTRUCTIVE BLAZE
BUSINESS FIRM LOSES ABOUT
&3,ooo-oTHER DAMAGE.

The commission house of Krey, Price q
Co., 0s3 Louisiana avenue, was attacked by
fire last night about 10 o'clock, which
gave the fire department quick run. On
account OF the blaze being In the business
section OF the city more than the usual
number of fire companies responded, and
because of the Roadway that had been
gained second alarm was sounded This
brought Chief Belt and additional compa nies
or the department to the vicinity of the
fire. Assistant Chief Wagner. one of the
most experienced firefighters In the local
department, was among the first to reach
the scene of the fire. He recalled other
fires that had occurred on that square and
knew that prompt action was necessary In
order to prevent disastrous results. 1t was
for this reason that he sounded the second
alarm and brought companies enough to
insure the safety of the neighboring struc-
lures.
It is thought that the fire started from the
stove in the Office of the firm on the first
floor. Fire Marshal Nicholson said he could
find nothing to indicate that there was any
thing else about the building to start the
blaze. a calf that was In the building was
rescued after its hair had been slightly
singed. The flames reached the second floor
of the building through a well hole and 1t

colored man last evening while on the way
home from q music class meeting. She saw
the man when she reached It'll street and
Rhode Island avenue and he took notice of

lowing her to the intersection of LIST and

grabbed the satchel.
Miss Reynolds held to the handle, but the
robber was strong, and succeeded in
securing the body of the satchel. The
young lady started in pursuit and made
the highwayman step so lively in the snow
that he slipped and fell. Unfortunately, she
told the police. she had no umbrella or any
thing that she could use as weapon, so
was obliged to give up the pursuit after she
had followed the man square.
The satchel contained SO and some trina-
cts. Complaint was made to the police

ECLIPSE NOT VISIBLE
HEAVY CLOUDS oBsCURED THE
SKIES LAST NIGHT.

The people of Washington did not lose
any sleep last night in an effort to witness
the eclipse of the moon. At the time when
1t could have been seen, had the skies been
clear, heavy pail of dark storm clouds
hung over the city like great gloomy cur
tain. shutting out the view of moon and
stars alike, while there was also an inter-
mttent fall of rain. snow and sleet Prof.
Aaron N Skinner of the naval observatory
expressed the situation to Star reporter
this forenoon. saying: THE eclipse was
itself eclipsed by the masses of storm
clouds"
The eclipse came off on. time" added
Prof. Skinner. THE phenomenon Is inter-
esting. but astronomically we cannot get
much out of 1t. The only thing of value to
be observed is the occultation of some OF
the faint stars while they are In the shadow
of the earth. Had the skies been clearer
this time there would not have been any
of the faint stars available for observation,
SO the eclipse would have simply been an
interesting thing to look at"
What actually occurred behind the cloud
curtain In the wee sma' hours this morn
ing was that the moon passed into one OF
her periodical retreats and remained with
her face in the earths shadow for one hour
and thirty-efght minutes. Then, as IL
chatting at the earth's presumption in pro-
truding between the sun and herself, the
and continued on her way.
Duration of Eclipse.
The eclipse began at 1851 o'clock this
morning, and a few minutes before O'Clock
the face of Luna was completely covered
by the earth's shadow, plunging that orb
into complete darkness, according to as
tronomers. AT 4:37 o'clock am. the eclipse
ended. Between those hours the only thing
observable in the heavens was the softly
falling snow and rain in combination.
The unseen phenomenon of this morning
Is thus described by astronomers: The
shadow caused by the earth in occupying
a position between the sun and the moon
formed an immense cone of blackness, with
the earth itself as the base and the apex
pointing away from the sun. Into this
shadow the moon moved from the west,
passing out at the east. At 1851 the moon
touched the outer edge of the darkness and
her retreat was begun. By 1:57, even had
the skies been clear, the moon could not
have been seen at that time being In total
eclipse.
For an eclipse of the moon to occur the
earth must be between the moon and the
sun, a result of which an eclipse of the
moon can occur only at what would be full
moon at any other time There will be two
eclipses of the moon in 1906, but that OF
last night was the only one which could
have been visible in this part of the world. "
None of the three eclipses of the sun will
be visible in Washington this year, it Is
said
