Kindly Woman to One Of
Suspicion.

New York.-One OF the most pathet
ic figures In the world today is Mrs.
Russell Sage, upon whom the fortune
left her by her husband imposes a
fearful burden. There is scarcely a
day that she does not weep, one of
her intimate friends tells us. She
sits and cries at the intolerable bur
den Of having $65.000.OO0 on her
shoulders. at the task of distributing
that huge fortune in the way that will
do the most good. She Is so years
old and has New England con-
science. She wants to do Just the
right thing with it all. and 1t requires
an amount of thought and study and
imposes feeling of responsibility
that Is hard on an old woman who
only wants a quiet corner to spend
her few remaining years in.
Mrs. Sage has aged very much
since her husbands death. She has
grown thin. pale, bent and wrinkled.
Aside from the natural grief over Mr..
Sage's death. Mrs. Sage was plunged
almost instantly into a storm of ap-
peals which amounted to a persecu-
ton. Her mail for some years before
Mr.. Sage's death had amounted to be-

leaped instantly to 900 day, and the
entire surplus was appeals for money.
Within two months after Mr.. Sage's
death 1000 letters were carted away
from her house unopened. Two score

handle Mrs. Sage's private mail. II

for advice as to the disposal of this
fortune. yet within the first two
months Of her widowhood she rece;v-
ed letters from more than 1000 diff
ferent men. instructing her how to
give away her money SO as to do thu
most good.
The letters that really affected Mrs.
Sage at this time were pathetic an
peals for help from individuals. MANY
OF these were to all appearances gen.
uine. the appeals of poor and igno-
rant persons, suffering in want and
hardship. and pathetically confident.
that the kind-hearted woman who had
more money than she knew what Ia
do with would give them the uttls
that would make them happy. Some
OF these letters distressed Mrs. Sage
greatly; but they came not only from
every state In the Union, but from
foreign countries. Had she respond.
ed to them she would have dissipated
ner entire fortune in small checks to
individuals all over the world. 90
finally Mrs. Sage gave up her mail.
Now letter which is manifestly from
personal friend is given her. but
nothing else reaches her eye.
1t Is not only impossible to reach
Mrs. Sage by letter-it has become
one OF the impossible things to see
her. Mrs. Sage formerly was one Of |

at a dinner in New York, apropos of
Independence Day:
