Rigid Economy at Home.

During the lifetime of her husband Mrs Sage set very simple table. The small business man living in flat habitually partakes of more elaborate meals than were served in the Sage household. Very rarely did Mrs Sage entertain at dinner and her dinners on such occasions were not lavish Of recent years dinner guests were served with champagne, but the way it was served indicated that it was on the table more to satisfy conventionality than the palates of the diners.
 Mrs. Sage cannot abide the odor of tobacco and would never allow cigar or cigarette to be smoked in her house. In 1902 she resigned from the Society Of Mayflower Descendants because at the annual banquet the men smoked against her protest. The smell of tobacco from a cigar store in Forty-second street pene- trating her apartments through rear window contributed to the removal of Mrs Sage from her home at No. 506 Fifth avenue to No. 632 Fifth avenue few years ago MT. Sage never smoked. It was. in his estimation, an expensive habit.
 Doubtless because of his disposition to have his own way. Mrs. Sage allowed her husband for many years to mend and clean his own clothes. He had a collec- ton of needles. thread, sponges, soap and cleaning material, and spent great deal of time in his poorly furnished room working over his meagre wardrobe, He sewed on his own buttons and did his own alarming, and was not interfered with in these details by his wife or any one else in the household until five years ago, when Mrs. Sage engaged Thomas Reilly, a trained nurse to care fo< him. Reilly discovered that his charge had never worn a suit of underwear in his eighty six wears

Seeley's Former Wife Weeds.

Mrs Lueie Mitchell. the divorced wife of Herbert Barnum Seeley, grandson of P. T. Barnum. has married Arnold Law son. son of Thomas w. Lawson of Boston. Mrs Lawson was married to Seeley in 1900
 Soon after the honeymoon there was a rumor of disagreements, which eventually resulted in an application for divorce by Mrs. Seeley. This was granted on August 5, 1903. when Mrs. Seeley was permitted to resume her maiden name and marry again.
 Seeley had come into much unpleasant notorlety. Aside from gambling complica- tions, he gave dinner at Fifth avenue restaurant on December l, 1898, the eve of the marriage of his brother, Clinton Bar mum Seeley, which resulted in descent by police, led by Captain Chapman. This dinner proved a sensation.
 It developed that Annabelle Moore, a soubrette had been employed to officiate in a role which was held by the police to be objectionable. Little Egypt" an- other character. was a feature of the feast When Captain Chapman descended upon the dinner with a full force of po- licemen the "Seeley dinner became a matter of discussion, which was continued long after the matter was taken into court

The Corey Divorce.

Lots of folks will be disappointed if William E. Corey, president of the United States Steel corporation, doesn't marry Mabel Gilman, the actress now that his wife has obtained a divorce from him. That Miss Glman's name was not men toned in the court proceedings in Nevada was due to the fact that Mrs. Corey had agreed not to mention any woman's name in return for the s1 100000 her husband settled upon her. The actress is said to be the real cause of the separation. Corey was so glad when he heard that his wife had got the divorce that he gave din- nuer at Delmonicos to celebrate the event
 People generally will not think any more of Mir Corey for this last act in an affair that has reflected no credit upon him from the beginning. By his attitude toward his wife since their separation became public he has added insult to in jury to the woman who helped him save money on s7 week, so that he could get start in life. It is no wonder that Mrs. Corey says that all mllionaires who live in New York are bad

Simple in Her Dress.

ID to fifteen years ago the outside world had not heard much of Mrs. Sage. She did not begin to figure in public life until the infirmities of her husband led him to yield to her desire to do some thing for the welfare of mankind
 Mrs. Sage is a woman of engaging per- sonality-a lady of the old school, courte- ous and tactful. As a conyersationalist she can hold her own in any company. In dress she is simple to the point of sever ity. Her gowns are of good material and well made, but she pays no particular at ten.3on 10 styles Of late years sha is said by her women friends to have been rather careless in her attire, but she has been very busy
 Mir Sage's love of horses was shared by his wife. but. unlike him. she enter tains no prejudice against automobiles. Mir. Sage could not abide a motor car. Four years ago Mrs. Sage asked him to hnv a big. comfortable machine, but he refused. It Is more than likely that his widow will soon travel about In tour ing car of the latest design rather than in the somewhat dingy brougham tha< has been for years her chief medium of trans- portation. .
 Mrs. Sage's friends think that she will abandon the rule of rigid economy her husband enforced. and that her expendi- lures will be such as her position In life will justify Since the Sage purse strings were loosened five years or more ago Mrs. Sage has been comparatively free spend CT. She paid 5000 for the coffin in which

THE WEEKS TALK IN NEW YORK CITY What Will Mrs. Sage Do With Her S70,O00,OO0? A CLERKS LUCKY STRIKE Made $2o,ooo by Bidding on Panama Canal Bonds With a Postage
 Stamp as His Only
 Outlay.
A CLERKS LUCKY STRIKE
BY SEWELL HAGGARD.

New York, August 4.-(SpeeiaD.- Folks all over the country. and especially here in New York. are wondering what Mrs. Sage will do with her $7O.0OO00O. The pub lie has been taught to believe that Mrs. Sage was strongly of the opinion that ae- cumulated wealth should be disbursed for the benefit of the unfortunate. hence the surmlse is that the bulk of her fortune will go 10 charitable and educational in stitutlons.
 In the past she has done as much as she could for charity. 1t was no easy matter for her to wiring contributions from her husband. Mr Sage did not be- lieve in gifts to charity and education. It is said Mrs. Sage was more than q year in getting him to contribute $v1ooo to construct wing to the Presbyterian hospital She was longer in getting $125,- GOO that paid for Russell Sage hall, his memorial offering to the Troy Female seminary. There is no doubt that Mrs. Sage has always desired to be generous, but the means at her command were Knitted. Up to within few years of his death, Mr. Sage kept tight rein on the purse strings, even auditing the household bills and demanding to know where every penny went. That she did not share her husbands spirit was shown at the time of the San Francisco disaster. MT. Sage gave $50G0 to the relief fund. Henry Clews remarked to Mrs. Sage that he thought the gift munihcent.
 Ut should be S100,000,' she said.

Byerley Found His Fortune.

Two weeks ago Wall street was asking who is Samuel Byerley. The street has learned and it will talk about him for weeks to come. Samuel Byerley is the man who bid $s000,000 worth of Panama canal bonds as the press dispatches have already told and without any outlay ex- cept 2 cents for a postage stamp made S20 900. Byerley Is a man 46 years old who has been dreaming along time that some day his opportunity would come. He is a clerk for the Wells-Fargo Express company, but just now he Is abroad spend Ing a vacation. When he returns he will have a better iob with the express com pany. How did he make his little for tune?
 Shorn of all it's technicallties. the facts of the now famous transaction are these Secretary Shaw advertised on last July ? that the government offered $20000,000 worth of Panama canal bonds for sale drawing per cent interest. Bids were solicited There were no restrictions as to the bidders. Mir. Byerley read the ad- vertisement as did thousands of other men.
 The one thing which perhaps frightened the average citizen who read the adver- tisement was the premium demanded Secretary Shaw s< Nuneed that bidders must deposit in cas- at either the treas ury department or at any of the sub treasuries an amount obtained by multi plying the par value of bonds awarded to a successful bidder by the amount bid above par. For example assuming that MT. Byerley bid for s6,0OO0oo worth of bonds he was required to deposit on or be- fore August 1. 04 multiplied by s60o0,000l or S240. 900 In cash Of course. MT. Byerley did not have anything approximating this amount He was working for salary. and had family to support. These are cities full of breadwlnners in just his cir cumstances. But assuming that all of these had the shrewdness possessed by MT. Byerley, all could have bid as he did. It

Shares Honors With Hetty Green.

Mrs. Sage who now shares honors with Hetty Green as the richest woman in the world is now in her seventy-seventh year, but her mind is as bright and her eyes as sharp as any time in her long career. Genealogy Is one of her few fads, and she takes great pride in the fact that she comes of Mayflower stock She is lineal descendant of Miles Standish.
 Mrs Sage was born at Syracuse in this state, and was reared in thrift and econ omy In public addresses she has referred with pride to the fact that when she was 10 she was slIilful with the needle. As a girl she made her own clothes. She re- ceived a public school education, and at the age of Is entered the Emma Willard seminary. at Troy. She is one of the old est living graduates of that institution. and was for many years president of the Emma Willard association. Higher edu- cation for women is a subject upon which she has spoken and written at great length.
 Mrs Sage was popular at school and was n successful school teacher She taught during the war in Philadelphia. In 1869. at the age of 40. she married Rus sell Sage. whose first wife had been one of her dearest friends

An Expensive Sport.

If you are seized with the turf fever it will cost you anywhere from S5o.O0o to S200 GOO to make a start in the racing busi- ness. If you want to start with string of twenty horses, you buy yearlings on speculation. unless you prefer to acquire at fancy prices animals with records all ready made.
 The yearlings are always a gamble. Murillo, a famous racer, sold for SleO as q yearling, and the auctioneer could hardly get a bid for Waterboy when a young ster. On the other hand, the W. C. Whit ney considered Nasturtium good invest ment as a 2-year-old at $50.cOo.
