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."
