New York, July 22.—Whatever may have been the purpose of Russell Sage In bequeathing to hla wife virtually his entire fortunte, estimated at more than 270,000,000, the statement Is made to day on unquestioned authority that Mrs. Saga will give this vast sum to charity. Doctor Tells of Plan. Dr. J. Carl Schmuck, who for eight een years has been the physician and close friend of Mrs. Sage, makes .the announcement of the latter's intention to devote her husband’s millions to benevolence. In leaving his fortune to Mrs. Sage," said Dr. Schmuck, "Mr. Sage haa left It to charily. She will distribute It. What can she do bill give It away? How could a woman of such advanced years upend a thousandth part of It herself? 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. . do not know Mrs. Sage's exact plans. That she has certainly some plans I do know. Her gifts will be along broad lines, ns she Is deeply Interested In educational work In vnrlous forms of charitable enterprises: In the sol diers nnd sailors. In the Y. M. C. A. and In hospitals. That Is all I can say to Indicate what will become of the fortune." 8he Is 77 Year* Old. Although Mrs. Sqge 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 eager to hasten the begin ning of her vast charitable enterprise. If the relatives of Mr. Sage should be dissatisfied with their portion under the terms of the will. Dr. Schmuck said, they would get what Mrs. Sage thought reasonable. Hairs Have, a Plan. She would not attempt to prevent them from what might be due them. At least one lawyer, representing the helrs-at-luw Is quoted as having made the positive declaration that the will Is to be contested. He says that one at the nephews will be selected to make the fight, although In doing so he stands the chance of forfeiting his share. The other relatives will reimburse him If the contest falls. If- he wlnB nnd breaks the will, every one of the nephews and nieces will probably re ceive 12,000,000 for the total of the estate Is estimated at more than 193,. 000,000, and It la Increasing at the rate of a million a year. .00 What ONE DOLLAR a Month Will Do.

"Master Jail Breaker and Handcuff Wizard" Is tho title of tho Great Brln- damour, who is the feature of the show at the Casino for next week. This wonderful man has (tussled the police departments of the world by the easy snd seemingly miraculous manner In which he escapes from Jails and pris ons and slips out of all sorts of hand cuffs nnd manacles. Just how no does It nobody can say, but does it, he docs, nnd It doesn’t seem to bother him any when he doos It.. Me has escaped from over four hundred nnd seventy-four prisons and enjoys the distinction of being the only man who has escaped front n cell In Sing H|ng prison. New York stnte, after being Incarcerated In a locked cell with his hands securely handcuffed to the doors. During his engagement In Atlanta he will invite the police and all dealers In handcuffs er 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. His act Is one of the moat mysterious In vaudeville and has cre ated a great sensation wherever seen. The marvelous Andrees in thought transmission are another feature act and do some Incredible things In the way of mind rending. Their perform ance Is almost ns astounding as that of the Great Brlndamoitr. Early and Late, comedians, do a very clever singing comedy act and Mias Jessie DeWelse, Instrumentalist, will no doubt prove a great favorite with Atlanta show-goers. Mills nn<| Mor ris, twp clever lady bluck face artists, who arc billed as "The Minstrel Maids," contribute some clever singing and dunclng, while “Aldo and Amour,” in "Fun on the Horizontal Bar,” are said to be very funny and really line acro bats of the first water. The camera- graph with new pictures completes the bill that will undoubtedly meet with the hearty approval of the Casino’s patrons.
