v SIBYL SANDERSON DEAD FROM CRIP Beautiful Singer Had Been \, Weakened by Severe Siege of { Illness and Quickly Suc- \ cumbed to the Attack. THE END CAME IN PARIS. Prima Donna Who Had Meteoric Career Attended by Relatives as | She Passed Away—Had Several | Romances in Her Life. \ PARIS, May 16.—Siby! Sanderson, the well-known opera singer, who was long considered the most beautiful woman on the stage, died here at 4 A, M. to- Gay after a severe attack of the grip. Before her recent illness Miss Sander- f#on had suffered for many months from @ complication of diseases, which left ber in @ very weak condition. The announcement of the death of the famous artist caused a profound ghock in the American colony here. She returned to Paris trom Nice weeks ago suffering from a slight attack of the Brip. Her condition was not regamed as, serious, but she gradually @rew worse, and her sickness tinally developed into pneumonia. The doctgrs continued to hoid out hopes of her recovery, but the singer sank and finally succumbed this morning. Miss Sanderson's mother, with whom she ved in :partments at No, 1 Avenue du Bois de Boulogne, and other rela- tives and friends, were present at the time of her death, including her sis- ters Edith and Marion, and Mary Gar- den, of Chicago, the’ soprano of the Opera Comique. ‘The funcral of Miss Sanderson will take place here on Monday. Miss Garden said Miss Sanderson, who had been unconscious since Thurs- dey evening, and who had suffered great pain, regained her senses before death came, although she passed away quietly in ker sleep. Retired from Public Lite. The funeral services will be at the Church of St. Honore d'Eylau. Since her marriage in 1897 to Antonio ferry, the Cuban millionaire, who died in 1899, Miss Sanderson had withdrawn from active participation in opera. Until her husband's death she spent most of her time at his handsome chateau at Chenonceaux, and she had since lived with her mother in spacious apartments here, where she received énly a few intimate friends. But Miss Sanderson constantly retained her love of music and the stage and occasionally lent her talents to charitable perform- §. Her last appearance of this kind wa,\a few months ago at Aix. \_J6W prima donnas have had such “brilliant careers as Miss Sanderson. She was born in Sacramento, Cal., in 184. Her father was socially and po- ,Uucally influential in California and was for years a Judge of the Supreme ‘Court bench. He died about the time his daughter, was ready to enter San Wrancisco society, which she captured, Royal Courted Her. ‘As a child she had a remarkable voice land while she was still in her teens she | country in month Gell In love witha third-rate tenor, who | claimed to be of noble birth. When she decided to fit herself for grand opera she went to Paris, There she was made [love to by the greatest singers Europe. When she went on the stage her career was nothing short of me: ‘teoric. It is safd that the Czar of Russia jell in love with her and many kings ‘Noblemen by the score sent her for- ‘gunes .n diamonds. About five years ago Miss Sanderson {married Antonio Terry, son of Tomaso | Terry, the Cuban planter, who left a ‘fortune of $60,000,000, ‘The manner in which the young Cuban spent money dazzled even the luxury-loving nobles of ;urope. When he died it was said Misg | Sanderson would inherit $5,000,000 of his | Money. | It later turned out, however, that his fortune reverted to the other heirs of his ‘father, and Miss Sanderson's share jwas nominal. Since her illness early in the winter she had been in Nice. She eft there to go to Paris several months |ago. She was to have married Co Paul Tolsto!, a cousin of the great Rus- }pian novelist, this summer.
