Here are the Charities to Benefit
By Colossal Fortune Left by Sage
Dr. Schmuck, who for the past eighteen years has been the phyelclan
for the family of Rusaell Sage, says that the old bond broker's widow,
at the age of 77, has evolved a plan by which she will distribute the
fortune, estimated at more than 975,000,000, and left to her by her hus
band's will among certnln charities, such as the Y. M. C. A., soldiers
and sailors, and hospitals.

New York, July 23.—Whatever may
have been/the purpose of Russell Sage
In bequeathing to his wife virtually his
entire tortunte, estimated at more than
370,000.000, the atatement la made to
day on unqueatloned authority that
Mrs. Sage will give this vast sum to
charity.
Doctor Tells of Plan.
Dr. J. Carl Sohmuck, who for eight
een years has been the physician' and
close friend of Mrs. Sage, makes the
announcement, of the latter’s Intention
devote her husband's millions to
benevolence.
"In leaving his fortune to Mrs. Sage,”
ssld Dr. Schmuck. "Mr. Sage has left
It to charity. She will distribute It.
What can she do but give It away?
How could a woman of such advanced
years spend a thousandth part of It
teraelf?
To Aid Y. M. C. A.
Mr. Sage knew his wife had made a
study of philanthropy, and that she
knew much more than he did about It.
I do not know Mrs. Sage's exact plans.
That she has certainly some plans I
do know. Her gifts will be along
broad lines, as she Is deeply Interested
In educational work In various forms
of vharttnble enterprises; In the sol
diers and saltors. In the I. M. C. A.
and In-hospitals. That Is all I can say
to Indicate what will become of the
fortune."
8ht Is 77 Years Old.
Although Mrs. Bage Is 77 years old,
Dr. Schmuck says her health Is fairly
good. She realises, however, that she
has not many years to live and for this
reason Is sagsr to hasten the begin
ning of her vast charitable enterprise.
If the relatives of Mr. Sage should
be dlesatlsfied with their portion under
the terms of the will. Dr. Schmuck said,
they would get what Mr*. Sag* thought
reasonable.
Haira Have a Plan.
She would not attempt to prevent
them from what might be due them.
At least one lawyer representing the
helre-at-Iaw Is quoted as having made
the positive declaration that the will Is
to be contested. He says that one of
the nephews will be selected to make
the tight, although In doing so he
stands the chance of forfeiting his
•hare.
The other relatives will reimburse
him If the contest falls. If he wins
and breaks the will, every one of the
nephews and nieces will probably re
ceive 12,000,000 for the total or the
estate Is estimated at more than 393,-
000.000, and It Is Increasing at the rate
of a million a year.

THEATERS
Vaudeville Next Week.
“Master Jail Breaker and Handcuff
Wlxard" Is the title of the Great Brln-
datttour, who is the feature of the show
at the Casino for next week. This
wonderful man has pusxled the police
departments of the world by the easy
and seemingly miraculous manner In
which he escapes from Jails and pris
ons and slips out of all sorts of hand
cuffs and manacles. Just how he does
It nobody can say, but does It, he does,
and It doesn't seem to bother him any
when he does It. He has escaped from
over four hundred and seventy-four
prisons and enjoys the distinction of
being the only nan who has escaped
from a cell In Sing Sing prison. New
York state, after being Incarcerated In
a looked cell with his hands securely
handcuffed to the doors. During his
engagement In Atlanta he will Invite
the police and all dealers In handcuffs
or other shackles to bring their own
Irons and lock them on him and prom
ises to escape from them In almost the
same time consumed In locking them
on him. Ills act Is one of, the most
mysterious in vaudeville and has cre
ated a great sensation wherever seen.
The marvelous Andrces In thought
transmission are another feature act
and do some Incredible things In the
way of mind reading. Their perform
ance Is almost as astounding as that
of the Great Brlndamour.
Early and Late, comedians, do a very
clever singing comedy act and Miss
Jessie DeWelse, Instrumentalist, will
no doubt prove a great favorite with
Atlanta show-goers. Mills and Mor
ris, two clever lady black face artists,
who are billed as "The Minstrel Maids,”
contribute some clever singing and
dancing, while "Aldo and Amour,” In
"Fun on the Hortiontal Bar," are said
to be very tunny and really tine acro
bats of the first water. The camera-
graph with new plcturee completes the
bill that will undoubtedly meet with
the hearty approval ot the Casino's
patrons.
