Are You in 1T?

Mr.. Chas. b. Spahr of Columbia Univer-
sity has recently examined the records OF
the surrogates OF thirty five counties in
the state OF New York, covering the last
three months Of 1893 and including the
counties of New York and Kings, the
richest in the state. The results are re-
markable as showing how few people
leave any estates at all and the low aver
age values OF the estates left.
Out OF 10000 persons over twenty five
years of age dying during the quarter only
Ss5.eit estates equal to or exceeding s., 900
2,466 " 4" averaging 1892
6,649 " Z" valued at 0,000
Think of it ! Less than per cent were
worth s. 900 and less than rs per cent were
worth q ,292 when they died. The con-
clusion is that whether 9,115 out of every
1900 leave an estate of 5000 or not de-
ponds upon whether they have life insur-
ance for that amount or not.

The Oldest Locomotive Engineer.

In relation to recent article in the
state papers about Representative
Wilson of Lyndonville being the old
est railroad engineer in the state, the
Essex Record has the following to
say in regard to it:-"Without casting
any reflection on the enviable records
Of the two aforementioned engineers,
we mention few others who have
long traversed the foot boards of the
flying machines. Daddy" Phillips,
as he is familiarly called, completed
his 49th year as an engineer last June
and is now on the Ogdensburgh di-
vision of the Central Vermont. Thos.
Buck, who runs the local passenger
train between st. Adams and Wind
sor and who has many friends along
the line, is probably as widely known
as any engineer in the service of Ver-
mont. He began his career in l849,
watching engines. In 1850, he began
firing and has since been in active
service, running for many years the
fastest trains on the road. Like Squire
Wilson, Mr.. Buck is a well-preserved
man, which is largely due to a temper
ate life. He has the respect and es-
TEEN of employers and fellow work
men. All hope to see him continue
in the service for many years. Chas.
Fields. who is now running on the
Montpelier 4 Wells River railroad,
made his first run about fifty years
ago but has not been in continual SER
vice on an engine, having been en-
ployed in other business for number
of years. I. J. Curtis of the Rutland
division of the Central Vermont is
veteran.
