What Miss Vanderbilt's wealth Viii /.
is matter Of conjecture, but tha. !.
will be measured by millions is &c e,oa
as certainty.
Harry Payne Whitney, the Your,
man who has captured Miss VanderbiI'
is twenty-four years old. He gradps,
ed from Yale five years ago. Ultimate.
~ he will inherit most OF the wealth ~
his father. He is fine type of young
American manhood. Although win
an immense oincome at his command
he has kept clear of the vices which
bestrew the path of the rich young men
of the metropolis. He divides ~
time between his fathers clubs in the
vicinity of New York. He is one ~
the best polo players in the country ana
his only extravaganza is the purchase
of polo ponies, of which he has rlae
niicent stable.
A year ago w C, Whitney began 10
buy up land on the sound side Of Long
Island in the neigbborbood of Ola
Westbury. When he had purchased
$50 acres he gave orders for the con.
struction of magnificent house
which, when it is completed, will he
the finest country home on Long Island
This place, it is said, will be given by
Mr.. Whitney to his son on the day OF
the wedding. 1t is located in the heart
of the. Long Island hunting district
Near by are the palatial residences Of
e. d Morgan and J. ID. Lanier and
General Terrence of Chicago. The
latter won undying fame two winters
ago by wearing a $4,000 overcoat but
the hunting set, who dominate things
on Long Island, humbled him. He sur.
rounded his estate with a six foot wire
fence at a cost of $4,000, and the day
after it was built he gave orders to
tear it down because the members OF
the Meadowbrook Hunt club threat
ened him with social extinction.
Mr.. Vanderbilt will build town
house for the young people somewhere
in the neighborhood of Fifth avenue
and F'ifty-seventh street, New York,
the location of both the Whitney and
Vanderbilt town houses.
Rev. Dr. David H. Greer of ST. Bar
tholomew's church on Madison avenue,
New York will be the officiating min
lister at the wedding. Miss Vanderbilt
has attended his church for many
years and has been liberal giver to
all of its charities.
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1896-08-13

two Of the most notable families OF the
country will be united in kinship.
Less than three mcnths ago the en-
gaeement was announced of Miss Ger
trude Vanderbilt, eldest daughter Of
Cornelius Vanderbilt, to Harry Payne
Whitney, eldest son Of William Collins
Whitney. Both fathers are known IN
financial circles the world over, and
the father of the young man is known
personally, or by reputation, by all Of
the great statesmen Of every nation on
the globe.
Two weeks ago 1t was feared that the
serious Illness Of Cornelius Vanderbilt,
father of the bride-to-be, would inter-
fere with the marriage and possibly
curtail the series Of brilliant entertain
ments which Mrs. Vanderbilt had
planned to give during her stay at
"The Breakers" While the illness OF
the father did interrupt many Of the
plans, his rapid improvement has made
it possible 10 continue the arrange
ments for the wedding. and unless
there is some serious relapse 1t viii
probably take place on or about the
date mentioned.
Almost any other faElly which in
tended having great wedding would
be sadly inconvenience unless the

ing marriage have yet been given out,
for the reason that everything is still
The young people are
anxious to submit everything for the
approval of Mr. Vanderbilt, and as he
has been too i'll to discuss anything,
matters have been delayed Miss Van
derbilt's trousseau is completed, and 1t
is all of American make. Like her IA
Their, she is a sturdy patriot with a,
firm belief that America produces the
best OF everything. Had she been so
inclined this young girl Ct twenty
could wed foreigner with glittering
title and with the great wealth at her
command rival the. social doings of her
cousin, the Duchess of Marlborough =.
But her father has always been opposed
to foreign alliances, and on several oc-
