Lacking but a few days of 90 years of age, Russell Sngo passed away at hla summer home at Lawrence, Long Isl and. For two or three years his health hnd been falling, owing to his extreme nge, and for half n year he had not been In his ofllce but he confidently ex pected n summer In the country would restore him to vigor. So long as be retained consciousness ho thought ho was gaining In health and ho planned on celebrating his blrthdny anniversary ns usual. Denth cntne quietly after a period of comn nnd wns solely due to Ills accumulated years. With the death of "Undo Russell" Sago there passed away tho greatest prlvato money lender In the world, a man who for ninny years has hnd from $1!B,OOU,000 to ?."0,000,000 In cold cash constantly lent out nt good Interest, most of It on call loans. No other man In the world possessed ns much cash enpltnl as did lie, but he also had grent Invested wealth, principally In rail roads. It had been thought that his death would create a pnnlc on Wall street, owing to the money ho hnd lonu ed, but ho considerately hod made pro vision that In enso of his denth thero should be no sudden call for tho loans. Russell Sago started out as a poor twy controlled by a dread of the pov iTty which ho saw all about him and letermlned that he would become a rich man. Debt wns n thing he abhorred, a weakness which" he knew was the curso of men who otherwise would have been successful nnd hnppy. Ho early re solved to live well within his Income, to snve his money In times of prosper ity so ns to bo nlwoys ready for thoso periods of sudden stress and adversity IllJHHKI.I, HAOE. which cotno to all men. From thu llrst lie wns successful. Ho saved tho tlrvt dollar he ever earned mid enrly learn ed how to make his money work for him. Ho started when n lxy on the hunt for gold and ns long ns life lasted he never gnvc up thu chase. Ho never took n vacation because) ho felt that ho could enjoy nothing ho well ns tho constant accumulation of wealth. It wns not the enjoyment of wealth nnd what It would procure for nlm, but tho nccumulatlon of the money, which kept him continually In tho harness. Ho was ns Joyous over saving C cents nt n lunch counter or In getting two yenrs' wear out of n readymndo suit of clothes as other men would be over un Kuropenu trip. Ituxiell 8nge was born In tho town ship of Verona, Oneida County, N. Y on August -I, 181(1, his father having couio to central New York In nil ox wagon. Whim Russell was an Infant the family moved to Durhamvllle, nt tho head of Oneldn Lake. Llko his brothers, Russell left thu farm at u very early nge. Ho began trading In horses. Reforo ho wns in he had nccuuiuliitcd nearly $2,000, then ho left his brother's em ploy and opened n store for hlunelf. This ho sold at a profit nnd engaged In the shipping business. At thu ngo of VSi he wus worth $.:5,000. At US ho wns solo proprietor of a wholesale grocery and commission business In Troy nnd wns rated at 00,000. Ho wns elected alderman and wna sent to Congress for ono term. In 18Ti7, when 41 years old, ho went to New York, seeking u wider field for his trading uctlvltlos. Ho bought tho La Crosso road, part of tho Mlhvaukeo & Sk I'uul system, for $1.5,000, kept It six mouths and sold It for $1,000,000. From that time forward ho wns a fuc tor in Wall street, always looking for n suro thing nnd nlways getting It. For n time he nnd Jay Gould were closely associated. Ho never specu lated, as that term Is generally under stood. He preferred to buy stocks out right, after studying them carefully; but be made most of his euormous for tune by loaning money. At his death his fortune wan estimated at $100,000, 000. Russell Sage bad no hobbles. Ho cared nothing for the things that wealth could buy. Things that other, millionaires aro wont to spend their money oil had no charms for hlra. He cared nothing for art, music, pictures steam yachts, social entertaltimcnU or books of travel. As wealthy as Croesus, his tastes to the last remained as simple as thoso of a $20 a week clerk who strives to live within his Income. His busluess apparently absorbed his whole life. Ac cording to tho popular estimate of hlra he represented tho most perfect devel opment of tho money making machliio In human form. Russell (Sage was twice married, but he had no children, His tint wife was Miss Maria Wliine, daughter of Mohcs I. Wlnne, of Troy. She died In New York In 1807. Two years later ho mar ried Miss Margaret Olivia Slocum, daughter of Joseph Slocum. a merchant of Syracuse. IIU friends declared Uiat f all U good batimlns ho had mndo In his life his marrlugo to this estimable woman was by long odds tho best. What ho lacked she possessed. Her chnrltablo deeds were many. With her Mr. Sato's home Ufo was a very happy one. EQYPT'8 PEASANT WOMEN. fSmrlUh Government Tnklnar Steps to 1'iluente Thorn. Tho peasant woman of Egypt, th poor, patient crcoturo who through the weary length of centuries, through the vicissitudes nnd tragedies of dynasties, rulers and queens, remntns, like tho sphinx, unchanged, Is presented to tho public In the Fortnightly Review as tho mother of rejuvenated Egypt, "tho Egypt that will be bom not bond, but free." Already ono of her race tho beautiful Thewilda has become mother of the Khedive, and from other peasant mothers, says tho writer, Walter F. Mlevllle, great sons are destined to be born. At the present time, however, thero appears to bu few signs of greatness In tho Egyptian daughter of tho boII. Her very nnmc, fellnhn, means to plow or till, nnd from her earliest years sho Is accustomed to drudgery. "In tho close season," says Mr. Mle vllle, "peasant bnby girls nro posted as sentinels over tho horses nnd cnttlo tethered In tho vividly green bnrseem fields. Active little maidens carry dl mlnutlvo hods or baskets of mortar or bricks when building operations nro In progress, or nro sent to destroy enter pillars when thoy thrcntcn to destroy the crops. The bigger girls In tlmo of wheat hnrvest Join with tho older wom en In field labor, which 1m very fa tlgulng. As a wife nnd mother tjio wearisome occupations of tho peasant woman's day begins with her house hold duties, the washing, scouring, bnk Ing and conking; then comes her mod est marketing, nnd much tlmo also Is given to her dusky llttlo cheruhs, tho children who, when small, tread only on her skirts, but who, when they como to man's estate, oft trnniplo on her heart In tho Intervals of housework thero Is even labor In the fields ready to her hand. The fundamental fact that she Is tie slroblo solely on nccount of her sex Is dinned Into tho fcllnha's ears from girl hood; her upbringing holds out to her no other gonl than mnrrlago; her broth ers enrly lenru n sensual nttltudo to ward all womnnklnd. From pecunlnry necessity, n fellah's menns not permit ting of his taking, unto himself ninny wives, polygamy does not nbtnln exten sively nmong the peasantry, but the woman who falls to bear children la quickly 'put nway,' for every ndult mala Is expected to found n family, or, It not divorced, drinks to the dregs n very bltttr cup. To imlltlcs she Is n stranger nnd sho meddles not even In vlllngo concerns which may affect her huilmnd. Sho Is not even expected to linvo nny religion. Humbly In her foul under heaven's bluo canopy she cannot blest Allah, the coinpnsslonnte, the merciful, whoso celestial breath she feels lu tha cool morning air, but religious dutlet nro not obligatory for her ns for men, and sho may but rarely enter n mosque during tho regular hours ot prayer." In conclusion, Mr. Mlevlllo says the Hrltlsh government Is taking some stepi by menus of education to prcparo tin futiiro mothers of Egypt for their en larging responsibilities, nnd, consider lug the dllllcultles of tho situation, hai mndo encouraging progress. Till- I'lliill Touch, It was known that Anabelle Hobhi hnd mndo n good match, from n world ly point of view; Just how good, how ever, nobody In Illllvlllo fully realized until tho return of Aunbcllo's mother from a vlslc to tho new home. "I guess there's nothing Annhelli can't havo If slid takes tho notion," said Mrs. Uobbs, with a sigh of satis faction. "I tell her she'd ought to show reason, for of courso Henry will got kind of wonted to her after a whllo, and not bo quite so ready ; but now lis takes up with all her whims. What do you suppose, his last gift was?" , Tho listener dared not venture a sup position. "I didn't Imnglno you would," snlf Mrs. Hobbs, with satisfaction. "Ann hello's nlways been tet on onions ovei slnco she was a child, but her pa and I nover encouraged her In It, first he causo they smell so, nnd then, too, the cost considerable unless you raise their, yourself. "Well, Henry found out how fond she Is of 'em, nnd bo ordered a half-bushel to be thero when they got back from the trip; and then when she told hlra my objections, and ho know I was com Ing, he bought a pint bottle of that new hyacinth perfumery and put It In the guest-room for me. "When I got It on, why, Anabelle might have eaten tho wholo o' that half-bushel of onions and I should never have known It Here, you smell o that handkerchief nnd you'll see I'm not speaking a word beyond tho truth."
