L The following communication addressed to the editor of
l i the Tribune appeared on the editorial page of that publication
JJ October 28:
v ; I would like to give my opinion on the constant criticisms
h I the last year by Colonel Roosevelt onthe actions of our great
.") f president. He, the president, certainly has shown greatness
S and wisdom in every act. He does not rush to a decision with
. ' 0ut deep thought and shows wisdom in every act. He docs
w I not rush to a decision without deep thought and shows wisdom
.i pfv in settling the difficult tasks before him. His record in future
! history will be recalled as one of the grandest among our
" If presidents. According to prophecy, these -terrible times were
111; to be, and I think God chose President Wilson as our leader
jifj in esc troublous times. It shows bad taste to criticise. The
president acts in a dignified, manly way, not taking notice of
j Rf, the jealousy of smaller men. Why wait until a man is dead to
fef'B'vc '1,rn just due?
- Yours very sincerel',

British Attorney General
Would Try AH Guilty of
International Crimes.
i
LONDON, Nov. Establishment of
a grand court of allied representatives,
civil and military, for tho purpose of
trying' those guilty of cripies during
ic war, is advocated hy Sir Frederick
Edward Smith, Ihp Bri!j3li attorney
general In an interview in the Daily
Express.
Sir Frederick, who is an authority
on international law, urges that tho
jurisdiction of such a court apply es
pecially, although not exclusively, to
those caught red-handed or observed
committing crimes. He contends that
the guilty parties must npt be allowed
to shift the blame upon their superiors,
as otherwise every war criminal
among the Germans might shuffle the
entire responsibility upon tho em
peror. Moreover, the attorney-general ar
gues, the guilty persons must not be
permitted to put themselves outside
the jurisdiction of the court and tho
surrender of those nqt ip allleij cus
tody should be demanded under the
peace terms.
The court would be empowered to
inflict such punishments as death and
penal servitude, and aso to effect
compensation for injury to persons or
destruction of property.

MRS. SAGE DIES '
IN NEW YORK
Widow of Late Russell Sage
and One of Richest Women
in World.
NINETY YEARS OLD
Has Given Away Thirty Mill?
ions in Declining Years
of Life.
NEW YORK. Nov. 4. Mrs. Russe))
Sago, widow of tho financier and one
Qf the richest women idn the world,
died at her home here early today.
Mrs. Sage, who was DO years old, had
been in feeble health for several years
and three or four days ago her cowHt
tion became serious. Her death was
caused by ailments duo to advanced
age.
Mrs. Sage had been virtually a re
cluse in her Fifth avenue house for
several years. She has been but rarely
in public and her visitors were limited
to close friends and relatives
Was Former School Teacher.
Margaret Olivia Sage, until sho
reached middle life had aply the
meagre income of a school teacher and
tbep ip a day shp found herself mis
tress of ono of the greatest fortunes in
America. Hqr early days were devoted
to scraping together enough money to
give herself a fair education, and her
last days were spent in developing the
science of giving money away. During
the last seven years of complete stew
ardship of tho $70,000,000 left by her
husband, Russell Sago, she returned
nearly ?30,000.000 to the public by sys
tematic philanthropies.
"My experience has taught me." she
had said recently, "that successful
peoplo are those who take what comqs
to hand, and. if It be small, wait and
work for something better. The root of
failure lies often "in the thought that
you can do but one thing and must do
that or nothing."
This practical philosophy developed
when she was a girl in Syracuse, N. Y.,
her birthplace. Her father Joseph Slo
cum, was so reduced in circumstances
by the panic of 1S37 that the daughter,
at the age of only nine years was ob
liged to help in the upkeep of tho
household. At tho age of 16 she started
for Mount Holyoke college oxpectlng
to work hor way for four years by
housework, but sickness overtook hor
on her way and she was compelled to
stop at an uncle's house in Troy. Lator
she was induced to enter Emma Will
ard's seminary at Troy, and after a
hard battle for self-support she was
graduated and became a school teach
er. For nearly twenty years afterward
she continued her battle, teaching
schools In Philadelphia, Syracuse and
Troy until, at the age of -11 years, she
became the wife of Russell Sage, then
a frugal banker at Wateryliet, N. Y.
Their home life was simple, despite
their great wealth. Mrs. Sage took
such a deep interest in hor husband's
affairs that he turned over to her, five
yoars beforo his death, completo con
trol of his business and found that .hisj
faith was borne out by hor successful j

operations- ?ut she was proudest of
her ability to support herself'aUogeth
er independent of wealth, and of her
housekeeping.
"If my copk should leave mo to
day she once said, "I could do the
work myself without running all over
the city for another giii before wp ha.d
something to eat. Hoqsewprk is ono of
the best occupations I know. Girls
should take up housework, even as
servants, rather than work in the.
stores. If I had a daughter (she was
childless) sho would have been.4aught
to cook and sew and be of soma com
fort to hep parents. Some girls, nowa
days, are of no move comfort tp their
parents than if they did not exist."
Mrs. Sage was a "woman's woman"
and her oharltles were largely direct
ed to the aid of women and children.
She became widely lrnown as a "lad,y
bountiful" and was so hesieged with
requests for money that she bad Iq re
tire finally to seclusion. Begging let

some of the writers threatening sui
cide and others to do. her bodily harm
if their petitions wero not heeded. Sol
