Huge Sum is Squandered by
Irving W. ChiIds, Epprais-
er Shows.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Shrinkage in
the estate Of Irving W, Childs, who
cut a wide swath in Broadway when
he inherited his share Of the fortune
Of his father, William H. H. Childs,
has been disclosed. Starting with
81. 100000, the younger Childs so dis
slpated his patrimony that when he
died, five years later, he left a net es-
tate Of only $192.&
The appraisal has just been filed by
Joseph W. Spencer. The gross estate
was $250,S5O The requests are far
beyond the total Of the estate.
A lawyer, Frederick H. Clarke, who
was not related to Childs, was to re-
ceive $3.50 0 and the rCsiduary es-
tate. Catherine F. Smith, Child's
nurse, was down for $1,000. Lydia E..
Robinson, who gained n%otoriety when
she horsewhipped Childs when he
tried to leave her, was TO receive a
life interest in $4,000. The widow,
who has married again, was left with
an annuity of $1,000 for life. Miss
Robinson was adjudged by the surro-
gates court to be "the friend who was
with me in Spain" to whom Childs
left an additional bequest,
The appraisal shows that Clarke,
who was criticised by the widow for
his conduct regarding the will has
renounced his requests and has trans
icrred the legacy jointly to the widow
and her daughter, Marjorie +. Chifds.

Reports from both the soldiers and
civilians received today by state and
military authorities here are that help
is urgently needed for the living vic
tins Of the flood on Goblin creek,
Seng creek and Big Coal river.
A conservative estimate Is that
from 900 to 700 houses. including
both those owned by mining com
panies and by individuals have been
washed away and utterly demolished
or SO badly damaged as to require
rebuilding before Occu pancy.
A large number OF houses have
been filled with water and mud, en-
tirely running the contents. At 4 like
estimate. about 700 families are dcs.
titute Of clothing. bedding. furniture
and cooking utensils. 1t is necessary
that they be provided with these with
the least possible delay.
The mining companies are doing
all they can. having begun TO clean
up the communities in which they
operate, and all available men are
needed in this work until operations
In the mines arc resumed. This emf
ployment will provide the men with
sufficient funds with which to buv
food.
Outside Aid Needed.
The companies have found them
selves unable to cope with the sit
uation in all its phases and render
anything like adequate relief.
Operators and others in position
to know the exact conditions declare
that organized effort and immediate
action from the outside are necessary
to prevent suffering, illness and
further loss Of life by pestilence,
A story from Dry branch. near
where an itinerant evangelist was
conducting services for some time
prior to the flood Is that on the
night before the storm and cloud
burst. he prayed that the Cabin creek
valley be visited by floods and storms
to awaken the residents to a realiza.

OF the towns which was practically
destroyed, the Holy Rollers are tell
Ing Of Their prayerful efforts, saying
that while the floods were coming,
they prayed that their meeting house

munlty.
