Nrir York, March 23
Maggie Mitchell, clghty-slx jears old,
one of tho most famous of American
actresses, died yesterday at her home In
this city.
Miss Mitchell, whoso name in private
life was Mrs. Charles Abbott, began her
career on the stage when sho was five
J ears old, taking child parts The play
In which Bho later achieved her greatest
famo was "I'anehon the Cricket," first

this and other plajs she appeared often
before President Lincoln. Sho retired
from the stago about twenty jears ago.
Sho had been In poor health slnco last

of the furore she created by being the

Playing In Washington when one day a
messenger came to her dressing room to
say that President Lincoln would esteem
It an honor If she would call at the
White House the next day, "And the
President sent his own carriage for me,"
Maggie Mitchell would say as she often
retold the great event. "And when I
got there he shook my hand and looked
at me steadily for a minute and then he
said: 'I heard of you so much, oung
woman, that I wanted to meet you here
in our home.'
That's the way he said (
It. 'I heard of ou so much.' And that
was the greatest day of my life."
She was married twice. Her first hus.
band was Henry Paddock, of Cleveland,
whom she married at Troy. N, T In

MARY NASH ZEALOUS
IN WAR RELIEF WORK
Mary Nash. In crmmon with so miny
of her professional sisters, is an effective
factor In the excellent work being done
by the stage Women's War Relief. Mie
Is eager to help the organization In anv
way she can, and of late has been dubbed
by her sister, 1'lorenco Nash, the sub
scription secretary, tho "champion trav
eling subscriber." With tho name goes
a tale.
When "The Man Who Came Hack," In
which Miry Nash enacts Mnrcolle. was
plavlng In Dctiolt Just prior to Its en
gagement nt tho Adelphla, Miss Nash
was the guest of Mary Mannerlng, who
Is at the head rf the Stago Women's
War Relief Work In the Michigan city.
Natural! v during her stay much was
said of the zealous cnmpilgnlng In pro
gress, and Mis-, Nash decided to givn
mruuKii , niiiimc-riiiK ii generous
sunscripnon 10 lurmer tne worn. Tills
the did
Just before she left Detroit Miss Nash
received a letter frcm her sister, who.
In her ofllclal capacity as subscription
secretary of tho Stage Women's War
Relief, requested a contribution. Here
was something of a quandary. With
one subscription of the size Just made,
Miss Nash felt she should make another
through her sister, nnd that, of course.
In order to make things quite equitable
nnd friendly In the Nash family and
all that sort of thing. It 'must be cer
tainly as large. If not larger, tlinn the
sum just turned over to Miss Manner
lng. So a sizable subscription was
dispatched to Miss Florence, who In tho
meantime had heard from Miss Manner
Ing, and promptly bestowed upon Miss
Mary tho designation of champion trav
eling subscriber. Miss Mary, en het
part, states that the spirit Is very, very
willing', but that she doesn't know how
long she will be able to live up to her
title.
