Attempted Burglary.

An attempt was made on Thurs
day night last to enter the house of
Thomas Queen, the florist, on Market
street, sometime after midnight. The
family had retired an hour or two be-
fore, aud was aroused by the sound
of someone trying the door. Upon
calling who's there?' several times
the intruders were frightened off.
Florist Queen thinks the would-be
burglar might have been someone re-
turning from a ball at the Assembly
Rooms, who only tried the door in
order to brighten the family. No
damage was done further than fright
ening the inmates of the house and
disturbing their slumbers for the rest
of the night.

OUR GILDED WIDOWS.
SIX of Them Have Fortunes Aggre-
eating Quarter of a Billion


Six widows of the United States have
an aggregate wealth of more than quar-
ter OF a billion dollars. William Henry
smith, who died the other day in Japan,
left an estate estimated at $4,000, 900.
Hetty Green does not talk about her for
tune. but it has been placed at from
S6o,0o0,000 TO SS0.00O.0OO. Mrs. Russell
Sage came into $S5OO0,OO0. but she has
given away S15,0OO,oOo in less than a
year. There is Mrs. Anna Weightman
Walker, who is worth S60OOO.OOO. Mrs.
Marshall Field is comfortable on S15.-
100000, and Mrs. Marshall Field. Jr..
has S5,0OO,0O0. Her wealth is not so
great in itself, but her sons will come
into, perhaps, S50,OO0,0OO when they are
of age. All this wealth has not accumu-
lated by the husbands of the women as a
matter of fact, in but two instances were
the husbands the money makers, and they
were Russell Sage and Marshall Field.
Hetty Green inherited about S12 ,00O,-
600 from her father, and she has spent
all her life trying to see how high she
could pile up the pyramids of golden
coins. When she is not engaged in fight
ing lawyers, Mrs. Green spends her time
in buying substantial securities and clip
ping coupons. When she dies the fortune
will so to her son, Edward Green, a rail
road builder and politician in Texas, and
her daughter, Sylvia, who is unmarried.
Mrs. Russell Sage's greatest gift was
100000 for improving the condition
of the poor. She has announced that in
the distribution of the Sage millions there
will be no indiscriminate giving. Mrs.
Walker is primarily a business woman
and spends most of her time keeping track
of her investments. Her wealth came
from her father, William Weightman of
Philadelphia.
Perhaps the greatest of all recent es'
tates was that of Marshall Field the
Chicago merchant, who died worth more
than $100000,000. Provision for his
grandchildren, who will, IN time, inherit
the bulk of the estate, and the important
educational and charitable requests left a
comparatively small sum for the widow,
Mrs. Marshall Field, Jr., is training her
sons to care for the millions that will be
theirs

CLERKS ODD ERROR.
MAY CHANGE OWNERSHIP OF
WESTERN RAILROAD.
queer Mistake May Make Difference
of S30,O0O,O0O to New York Man
and ReIatives-Case Decided in
Favor of Joseph Letter.

The error of law clerk many years
ago may mean fortune to Russell Sage
Raphael of New York and his mother and
listers. Many years ago Nathan Raphael
4 close friend Of Russell Sage purchased
b6S0,00O worth of second mortgage bonds
ef the Wasatch and Jordan Valley Rail-
read Company. which owned a line in
Utah. The interest on the bonds Of the
road was defaulted and the first mortgage
vas forecosed, cutting out the holders
Of the second mortgage securities. a
short time ago Russell Sage Raphael,
son of Nathan Raphael, began suit in the
federal court on the bonds, and secured
a judgment for $1,6S0, 76S, including in
.erest. This judgment has been returned
by the sheriff as unsatisfied and has been
dled in court. While working up this
fase Mr. Raphaels lawyers discovered
HAT when the first mortgage was fore
closed the holders of the second mort
gage, probably by a clerks error, were
not made parties TO the suit. This, it is
claimed invalidates the foreclosure pro-
readings The old railroad property,
which now belongs to the Denver, Rio
Grande and Western. lis said to be worth
about $30,OO0,00O. The second mortgage
bonds issued by the original road amount
ed to 100000. 1t Is not known who
owns the other $4,000 of these bonds.

RUSH OF IMMIGRANTS
THE ARRIVALS FOR APRIL WILL
BREAK ALL RECORDS.
Total of More than 100000, Chiefly
Italians, Come Into Port of New
York Official Absconds with
$4,000 of Company's Money.

How stupendous is the rush Of immi-
grafton to the port of New York this
spring is shown in a tabulation that
makes it appear that ApriI's arrivals will
total more than 10000. There are wait
ing in the harbor 1896 men, women and
children. chiefly Italians When the
twenty-five ships due within the next few
days arrive there will be waiting in the
harbor and at the piers about 10000 pros
pective jewellers in our land Farm hands
and day laborers have been attracted by
the stories of high wages and general
prosperity that have been sent to the
old country by relatives and friends. Be
sides. the new immigration law will 90
into effect on July /, and makes it harder
for labOrers to enter the country, so
there is a rush to get in before the new
barriers are raised. The record for
April of 1906 was 131 ,631. There have
already landed 1O1, 400 ard by the end
of the month the figures will be over
100000, making the record month in the
history of the station at Ellis island.

PLAYING THE HORSES.
How n 81 1000 Bank Roll won $780,
900 n Year for Eight Years.


That the professional gambler has the
best of the game is proved every time an
investigation lets in the light of truth
But the recent revelations made by Dis
trict Attorney Jerome of New York are
simply astounding in their exposure of
how the pool room proprietors fleece the
people who think they can beat the horse
racing game. The other day his agents
raided pool room at 112 Fulton street
and were fortunate enough to secure pos
session of a neatly kept set of books
which make astounding revelations. The
books contain a complete record of the
pool room transactions for several years
past They show that in January, 1899,
bank rolf of $1,000 was made up.
Every day of the month the transactions
are summed up in columns of winnings
and losings. The books show, after all
expenses including protection" money
had been paid, profit of $10,053.75. In
May there was another ''whack-up" of
profits amounting to $14,271. Then the
bank rolf was increased to $4,000.
From that time, May, 1899, the bank roll
was never drawn upon in any single
month and for eight years the winnings
have averaged $250000 u year or ST.
100000 during the eight years. The
books show how and among whom the
money was divided and it is believed that
Mr.. Jerome is warmer on the scent of
1.-The man higher up than he ever was
before. One of those who regularly re-
ceived IS per cent rake-off is said to
