Her Contribution Limited.

In a letter to Senator Vest at Springfield, Mo., inclosing a check for SSOO, her contribution to the Missouri Confederate Monument association, Mrs. Phoebe A. Hearst says: “I note what you say in regard to my husband’s generous donation to the confederate home in your state. While he was living he was making money, and since he passed away I have been trying to accomplish a great many things which have consumed all my income. Besides, I have divided my estate with my son, giving him the better half, and I am precluded from doing many things which otherwise I would be in a position to do.”
