REBUFFED BY SERVANT
But Andrew Carnegie Finally Succeeds
In Calling on Mrs. Sage.

Pasadena, CAL, April 4.-Andrew
Carnegie was rebuffed one morning re-
Gently. Accompanied by Walter Ray
mond, going down to the links. he
passed the Raymond cottage, now be-
ing occupied by Mrs. Russell Sage.
"Ah, my old friend, Mrs. Sage" said
the ironmaster, Il should like to call
on her for moment and pay my re-
spects."
He walked to the door and knocked
The summons was answered by Mrs
Sage's colored fcotman. He opened
the door far enough to stick his shiny
face out and said, without waiting for
any questions:
"Ah. no. no. sab, it's no use sab,
all, ah, Mrs. Shge she does not re-
ceive any callahs for nobody or moth
ing, and especially she wants to see
ture men: no. no. sab, | reckon / can't
no neWspapah reporters. nor no pic
tu'e men; no. no, sab, / reckon / can't
do nothing for you today, sab. Good
day"
With that he slammed the door in
the face Of one of the richest men in
the world, thinking him a reporter,
charity solicitor or imposter. Mr..
Raymond came to the rescue. Talking
through the wall he stated that Mr..
Andrew Carnegie wished to call on
Mrs. Sage"
At the name of Carnegie the colOred
footman could not get the door open
fast enough, and took several minutes
in begging ''pardahns. SIR" adding:
You know, Mr.. Carnegie. we are just
nearly pestered to death here by some
body coming to the door everlastin'."
The two wealthy philanthropists
spent several minutes renewing old
acquaintance.

There are English people who no
doubt fear, whenever they hear any
noise in the early morning. THAT If they
open the window, instead of hearing
the rattle of the milkmans can. they
would near the rattle of the spurs of a
German hussar." said Chancellor Lloyd
George in a campaign speech the other
day This groundless panic fear may
be paralleled by an incident Of the siege
of Paris. At the great sortie toward
Champigny a regiment Of "mobilesy
marching along a road broke its ranks
and began to stampede at a fearsome
sound. Whereupon the colonel rose i'm
his stirrups and shouted in a voice of
thunder Calm yourself. my chill

had been collected in huge hear, and
came down with a most Integral clat
