YOUNG i'll Il fN(R Id.
Indiana's Next Senator Is But SO
Years Of Age.
.. Devari.lsse Chosen to Sue
coed Senator Furpie--A self-Mnde
Man Who Need Not he Ashamed
of Himself.

Albert j. Beveridge, the new United
States senator from Indiana, will be
the youngest man in the senate next to
Marion Butler, of North Carolina, who
is few months his junior. The sudden
rise of young Beveridge to eminence is,
one may say, unparalleled. At Is he
was a teamster and logger. At 36 he
is senator of the United States. When
Mr.. Beveridge was born the civil war
was at its height. and the male mem
bers of the Beveridge family were fight
ing for their country in the south. The
patriotism that took them away from
their home on the farm in Highland
county, O., was also the occasion of
their losing all their possessions, and
when the war was al end the family
removed to Illinois.
When he came out of the high school
his money was all gone. His prospects
for college course were anything but
bright, but it We're strange if fortune
could desert so persistent worker 1t
favored him with a friend who advanced
him $50. With this insignificant sum
young Beveridge entered Depauw uni
versity. During his career at college
he was constantly in the predicament
of the boy who plays with fate by run
ming across the elastic ice of pond in
the fall. Everything was before him.
The ice was all cracked behind him. He
struggled through it all manfully. He
got his living by serving his fellow col
legians as the manager of one of their
boarding houses. lie had small time
and smaller desire for the frolics of
youth. During the time when he was

where Rubber Is Grown.

The principal rubber-producing re-
gion is the valley of the Amazon, the
greater portion of the rubber of COM
merce coming from Brazil, Venezuela,
and the United States of Colombia.
Much, however. is contributed by Cen
trail America and Mexico. The product
of Africa is steadily increasing, and
the planting of many thousands of rub
Der trees in India under government
supervision will soon place that coun-
try prominently in the list of rubber
growing lands.

not devoting himself to the running of
the students boarding house he was
making the chips fly all about him in
his studies. When vacation time came
he spent he interval between collegiate
years earning little money and study
ing in advance. In this way he secured
his much-desired knowledge of the arts
and sciences. He was graduated in
1885.
Thenh wentout west and earned a liv-
inf ona cattle ranch while he was recov-
ering his health. Life in the open air
soon gave him back his strength, and he
returned to Indiana, we'll equipped for
his climb up the ladder of fame. When
he came to Indianapolis he was fortu-
nate enough to secure an entrance into
the law office of Mcdonald & Butler,
and his untiring industry soon won the
confidence of the members of this noted
firm of attorneys. After he was admit
ted to the bar he opened a law office of
his own, and was not long in winning
from the public the same esteem and
confidence he had won from his profess
sers, from his teachers, and from the
s.sbosses" who were over him when he
was teamster and hauler of logs.
Mr.. Beveridge is staunch repub-
lican. He has given generously of his
time and money to that party, and did
not seek prompt returns. During the
campaign of 1896 he stumped the state,
and paid his own way. The Pittsburgh
Bar association was SO charmed with
his address on 1.-THE Vitality of the
American Constitution" that the mem
bers of the association ordered it print
ed in order to study Mr.. Beveridge's
logic at their leisure. He it was who
delivered the principal address at the
| Lincoln celebration of the New York
Republican club. In Chicago he has adj
| dressed the Union league and the Mar
| quette clubs, and in 1896 he spoke at the
| Auditorium, in that city, on the nation
| al issues.
| Senators, says the Chicago Times
| Herald, will find in the young giant
from Indiana new power among them.
| His youth will only enhance interest in
him. 1t is noted that Senator Turpie,
whom Mr.. Beveridge succeeds, was only
| "a when he entered the senate in 1868.
Marion Butler was only 80 when North
Carolina sent him to the senate. Sem
ator Stewart, of Nevada, was 81 when
he became senator in 1864. Other
young men in the senate are Senator
McLaurin, of South Carolina, who was
81 when appointed, and later elected
two years ago; Senator Kyle, of South
Dakota, who was 81, and Senator Can
non, of Utah, who was the same age.

Fifield is we'll known in New England,
although his reputation has not extend
ed throughout the United States. He is
67 years old, and has won conspicu-
Gus success as corporation lawyer.
His fees have been very large, and
from his income he has made very
profitable investment, so that now he
is considered very wealthy man. AS
an attorney he has few, if any, equals
in Vermont. Mr.. Fifield has never
been prominent in politics. Indeed he
has rather shrunk from participation
in the political activity in which he
might have been large factor had he
so willed. Mr.. Fifield, however. did once
consent to occupy political post, but
one in the direct line of his profession
That was United States district attor-
neyship, which he held from 1869 to
1880.

to the lucky man she would choose
for her spouse. The future Mrs. Will
liam X. Vanderbilt has black eyes and
hair, lively complexion and plump
figure. Although she is under the me-
dunn height, she weighs 1870 pounds.
Her disposition is as sunny as the skies
of her own California. Few of the
wealthy young women in New York are
simpler in their tastes than the Cali
fornia heiress. OF course she does not
know how many are her gowns or what
they cost, but none of them are made
for pure display. Miss Fair is an ex-
pert needlewoman, and some of her
fancy work shows positive talent. Her
efforts in this line are all directed to-
ward charity. She is both sympa thetic
and generous, and most devout Roman
Catholic. This linked marriage" will
make an interesting problem to solve.
The proyerbial opposition of the church
to marriages between it's children and
Protestants will present an obstacle,
but not an insurmountable one. Dis
pensations have been granted before,
and there is no obvious reason why a
dispensation should not be granted
now. The precise amount of Miss Fairs
fortune it is difficult to state. The
great Fair wealth can only be esti-
mated, but virginia's share is said to
be in the neighborhood of $5,ooo,o0o.
Young Vanderbilt is not very good
looking, but he inherits much of the
commercial genius and thrift of his
grandfather and of the old ''commo-
dore," who began the upbuilding of the
prodigious material wealth his numer-
Gus descendants now enjoy and con-
serve. He is the first of the Vanderbilts
to attend Harvard, and it is said that
his progress in the special studies he is
pursuing in the scientific school of the
big university is rapid. He is espe-
cially devoted to engineering and
evinces an ambition to become pro-
ficient in geology. He is 81 years old
and will graduate in two years.
