AVERAGE VALUE OF ESTATES

MT. Charles B. Spahr, of Columbis University, since deceased, made an examination at one time of the records of the Surrogates of thirty five counties in the state of New York, and published the results ia The Outlook" The examination GOV. cred a three months period and fn- cluded the counties of New York and Kings, the richest in the state. The results are remarkable as show ing CD How few people, comparative ly speaking, leave any estates at all; and (2) the low average value or estates. The following is sum mary of the facts shown:
 (1) Out of 10000 persons over twenty-five years of age dying during the quarter only 3,351, or just about one-third, left any estates whatever. Of those who were heads of families only one-half left any estate; the other half left nothing, not even 8 savings bank account.
 (2l Of the 3,351 estates admdnis- tered on, only Ss4-about 27 per cent of all estates and per cent of all those dying-were worth over 5000.
 (3) Sixty-six per cent of all left no estates; g per cent of all left estates valued at under s5,00e, the average value of those below this amount being S1,292. Less than per cent of all left estates valued at s5,000 or over.
 These investigations were made without reference to life insurance. but they afford a powerful argument for life insurance. They are the re- suits of life-not it's rosy-hued expec- tations. They warn men that If they would do better than the average man they must employ better meth ods than the average man.

Its dozen or more investi gating committees will grind stsad- fly ahead during the summer months and, before the next campaign comes on, the democrats expect to have unearthed sufficient material to startle the country and perhaps to disgust it with the republican method of conducting the vast bus mess of Uncle Sam
 In some quarters 1t was thought that the Democrats were "bluffing" last year when they predicted that they would turn the government ser vice upside down soon after coming into power. The democrats are car rying out their promises. Trouble is ahead for the trusts, and also for any cabinet officer who has not con ducted his department to the liking of the now militant democracy.

NOTES OF THE BATTLE

Several of the Americans who were permitted to visit Juarez yes terday afternoon caused the insur- rectos more or less trouble and one young man came very near getting into serious difficulty. Souvenir hunters caused the insurTecto guard some uneasiness. In the church the insurrectos caught an American talk ing some of the silveTware which be- Ionged to the sacred place. It was taken from him and he was ordered sent to jail, but one of the Ameri- cans with the insurrectos succeeded in getting the captain to release the man. Such fellows as this man" said the captain, come, over here and take things and then the in- suTrectos will be accused of stealing it. We have got to protect every piece of pronerty we can because we are responsible for the city, and as a matter of fact when we are &C., eused of taking things, if the truth was known it would be just a case like this one"

A LEGISLATURE OF BRIRE-TAkERS

Ohio has apparently produced d legislature so corrupt that 1t can not be entrusted to investigate it. self
 Of the thirty-four members of the senate nineteen are said to be i'm plicated in the bribery cases, Of the IF members of the house it IS expected that at least thirty will be included in the charges to be preferred before the Franklin county grand jury, which began its investi- gation yesterday.
 According to the detectives who have been gathering the evidence, conditions at the state capitol were about as bad as those uncovered last year in Adams county, only there were fewer legislators at Co., lumbus than voters in Adams coun- ty. Votes of a large proportion Of the membership of the senate and house were eagerly marketed. If high prices were not to be had, small sums would purchase them. But many legislators always held their votes for sale. They hunted for opportunities to be bribed. Even Pittsburg's famous city council, which furnished rich crop Of con victs, has never been represented as keener in selling it's votes. l While Ohio is dIsgraced as it never has been before, it was not a new condition that caused this in vestigaion to be undertaken.
 Says the Fl Paso Times: In the passing of President Diaz from power in Mexico, that republic loses one of it's most picturesque lcnaracters-a man who is indissol- ubly linked with the history of his icountry. General Diaz was a neces- sary figure in Mexican affairs, but
 his grasp of the situation extended f just a little too far. Mexico has
 progressed to the point where heI people will no longer stand for any | form of despotism.

THE RECALL IN ACTION.

Tacoma is showing an expectant world how much fun can be got out of the recall when practiced with assiduity, says the World.
 On April 9 she ladies, the saloon keepers and other citizens of Ia coma held a special election to re- call Mayor Fawcett. They voted with such vigor that none of the three candidates got the requisite majority, ana nad II not been such rare sport the day might have been considered wasted. They held another special election ten days later. and this time the panacea banned out and Mayor Fawcett made way for Mayor Seymour.
 Time passed and politics became dull in Tacoma But on May . the clouds lifted and another special election blossomed forth to recall the four city commissioners. Alas! the new weapon had become rusty from a fortnight's long disuse and it failed to decapitste these officials at one swift and deadly blow. But Tacoma never waversd. No sooner did she find that this election was not decisive" than she bravely call ed for another to be held on May 16.

New York, April S.-(Special.)-Tne fight to wipe, out the sidewalk theatre ticket specuia tors inaugurated by num- Der of the managers is the big topic of interest just at present.
 John B. Lang, one of the oldest spec ulators was arrested under the provis- ions of the new city ordinance. A prime facie case was proved against him in the Jefferson Market court. On the advice of counsel he refused to pay the fine and was committed to jail, pending an appn- cation for writ of habeas corpus. Ih's was denied on the ground that the de. fendant had already been convicted anu sentenced and that the cases could only be brought before the supreme court on appeal.
 The arrest of Lang was made in defer ence to explicit orders from Police Com missioner Cropsey.
 The judge who finally issued the ha- beas corpus decided against Lang, say ing, Tt is apparent that the control or the streets and the adoption Of reason able regulations as to the traffic there- on and the use of the sidewalks by foot passengers, Is within the powers Of the board of aldermen. The ordinance is not unreasonable, oppressive or in contra yention of common right.
 Broadway is an important thorough fare: it Is crowded at all hours and the effect of selling tickets on the sldewaiKs might be to collect crowds and thus to interfere with the use of the sidewalks by the public and lead to disorder.
 .'Nor does the ordinance deprive any citizen of the right of earning his live lihood in a lawful manner as is contend- ed by petitioner. It simply prohibits the party from selling tickets on the streets in front of any licensed theatre or place of amusement. Nor is the ordinance in violation of the constitutional rights of the petitioner"
 Upon hearing the decision Cnaries Burnham, president of the Theatre Man agers association. called Commissioner Cropsey on the telephone and asked him what the police department intended to do about the spectators. MT. Cropsev said he had not been officially notined of the decision.
 The Managers association met later to discuss a proposition made it by some epeculators. It was proposed that the managers advocate a high license Tor speculators-one that would shut out oo-
