III hlng Sueet.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, Jan. IA
Hope vanished and officials Of the
Anne Lee Memorial Home for the
Aged were dumbfounded today
when, in the Corporation Court, a
supposed will Of an elderly lady
believed to have died in Blooming
ton. ILL.,, was opened. Instead of
fortune expected for the home.
II contained a blotter and two rail-
road schedules.
Several days since, dapper-look-
ing young man. a stranger, called
at the home and deposited with the
matron a long official envelope sea-
ed, with instructions written on the
outside.
The supposed will was turned over
to Mrs. L. f. Uhler, president of
the home. Written instructions on
che back of the envelope directed
that 1t be opened at l o'clock yes
terday afternoon, and gave the
names of several witnesses in whose
presence the instrument was to be
opened, among them being several
from out of the city.
hEg "tEc WILL
but no response was received. and
the Of1cers of the home, who had
gathered together with an attor-
ney, decided to wait until today.
Accordingly they went to the Cor
poration Court, and Judge Robin
son Moncure opened the envelope.
That the officials were the victims
Of a practical joke goes without
saying.
Reductions in the cases OF nine
property owners out Of 126 who
appealed from the increase made
by the local board Of tax review
have been granted by Judge Rob-
insOn MonOUre in the Corporation
Court. Those whose property was
reduced are as follows: B. Abram-

MILLION DOLLARS WORTH
OF GRAIN is DESTROYED

Chicago, March pa wrecking
crew today were clearing away the
tons of debris scattered by an explo-
sion Saturday night in the elevator Of
the Armour Grain company, on the
south side, under which the bodies OF
four victims were believed to be con-
cealed. The two known dead were
blown out of the structure by the
blast, which, it was believed, was due
to spontaneous combustion which ig-
nited inhammable mill dust.
The grain loss was placed at about
s1,OOO,OO0 by E. A. James, secretary
of the company, who said that it was
believed the other s3,000,oo0 worth
of grain in the concrete bins could be
salvaged.
Police and officials of the COM
oany declared they placed little Gre
,ence in a theory that the explosion
night have been caused by a dissiat-
isfed employee.

STORE ROBBED
MONDAY NIGHT
Burglar Enters Store of Ramey &
Gilliam-Steals Goods Worth
Four or Five Hundred DOL
lars-Breaks in Back
Door-No Clue.

Monday night burglar or bur-
glars entered the store-room of Ra
mey & Gillian, on Washington Street
and stole from it goods of the value
of four or five hundred dollars. En-
try was made by breaking the rear
door. In order to get to this door,
which opens into an enclosed court,
the robber or robbers first climbed
on top of the Kerr stores on Main
street and then got down into the
court, and from this entered the
store.
Several articles of wearing appar-
ell were taken from the front win
dow of the storeroom. Evidently the
person who entered *he store had a
confederate on the outside, else he
would not have dared to go into the
front windows of the stroeroom and
take out a large quantity of wearing
apparel and of other articles.
