SENATOR FAIR's ROMANCE.
How He Married an Irish Girl Almost
bV Accident

How He Married an Irish Girl Almost
by Accident.
CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-"SenatOr James G.
Fair. of Nevada, was born within five
miles of where l was" said a gentleman
connected with the Chicago Police De-
partment to-day. There have been many
anecdotes published about him, and es-
pecially about his divorced wife, but l
think l can tell how she became his wife,
by a mere accident, as it were. Jim's
family lived in county Tyrone, while ours
came from an adjoining county. The
Fairs were known in all the country
around as fighters, and right good ones
they were. Besides being fellows that
knew how to handle blackthorn, they
were very good carpenters. Jim's father
and mother did not live very happily to-
getheT, so the old man packed up his
traps and came to America. He made
money and went back to see how his FAM
lily was getting along. At the time of his
return Jim was about twenty years Of
age. He was the fathers pet, and when
the old chap was ready to come back to
America he took him with him. AT this
same time Jim was engaged TO young
girl named Pearce. / can't say anything
them, but it must have been a tender one
on the part OF the future Senator, as sub
sequent events showed.
LONGING FOR THE SWEETHEART.
AT any rate, after he and the old man
got over to America they went at carpen-
tering, and made money very fast. Jim
thought OF his sweetheart, and lOnged for
her. He sent a sum of money TO friend
to pay Tor her outfit and passage to the
United States, fully thinking that she
the New World. A few months after this |
young Fair received a reply from his
friend to whom he had sent the letter.
The nature Of the missiye must have
stirred MS heart to the depths. 1t was to
the effect that Miss Pearce had married
another young man, and consequently
could not be expected to sail on the next
ship to her eXpectant lover.
THE SISTER SUBSTITUTED.
"But the same letter which conveyed
this news also said that there was no Oc-
casiOn for sadness. 1t reminded young |
Fair that there was younger sister in |
the family whose beauty and gTaces were /
as charming as those of the elder one
His friend concluded his letter with the |
proposition that he should offer the rising |
fortunes and the mOuey of Far to one |
vino could accept them. To cut it short, |
jim sent back word that he could do so, |
and it was not long after that when the |
younger Miss Pearce sailed for America |
to wed the future bonanza king and |
Senator. Her subsequent history has |
been told in print many time, but | |
think that this story OF Senator Fairs |
early life will be new to the general /
