YOUTH OF MARQUIS ITO.
On His First A.. rIvaI in Euro e the
Great Japanese Statesman Had
Just Two Dollars,

No student of oriental politics
would to-day charge Marquis Ito
with unprogressiveness. He is right
ly considered as the creator of moe
ern Japan. And yet, when he was
young man, he was bitterly opposed
20 the new-fangled ideas which his
crack-brained countTymen were then
busy importing from the oceident.
Because of his active opposition to
the propaganda of the dominant par
" he was prescribed and forced to
seek refuge in Europe. To an inter
viewer the marquis recently detailed
the story Of his -r-o,@rati.- - ---- 90
he and young Count Inauye were
companions.
I'VE two young fellows" the mar
quis said, made for Nagasaki for
the purpose of getting to England.
The only word of English we knew
was navigation. At the office Of
the shipping company the man in
charge asked what we wanted; all
we could say was navigation He
sent us aboard a vessel and imagine
our surprise at finding we had been
shipped as common sailors. All
through the voyage we had to scrub
decks and work just as the others
did. The English sailors found out
that we had money, and it was soon
gambled away from us. But not
all, for we kept two dollars care
fully slowed away in an old stock
ing for emergencies"
With these two dollars Ito and his
friend arrived one wet and stormy
day at London decks. No one came
TO meet them and they were left
alone, hungry and destitute in the
great city One of the dollars was
tossed in the air, and on the cast
Inouye, it was decided was to go
and seek for food He discovered a
bakers shop, threw the dollar on the
counter, seized a loaf of bread, and,
without stopping for the change,
rushed back to Ito, who, tired and
ravenOus, was waiting for him. Next
day their friends came for them, and
they were no longer alone. Such was
ItO's first introduction TO England
and to western life.

HON. JOHN F. DRYDEN.
r.,o..n 20 Suceeed the Late william
j. SeweII as United States Sem
atOr from New Jersey.

John Fairfield Dryden, the choice
Of New Jersey republicans for United
States senator, has been the archi-
tect of his own fortunes. He Is
rated as a millionaire and is known
throughout the country as the
founder and president of the Pru-
Dental Life Insurance company, OF
Newark, n. j., but his wealth ana
prominence were attained solely
through his own efforts and by dlnt
of extraordinary energy, persist
ence and hard work, unaided Dy
speculation. Born on a farm near

er he went to fit himself for the bar,
but his health gave way under close
study and he turned his attention to
life insurance, a subject in which he
had become greatly interested while
at college. He began active opera
tions q years ago, with an Office
staff numbering only three persons
and an outfit costing not more than
s2G0. To-day he has under :-iD
more than $4,000 persons in all parts
Of the country. Besides being a
man Of rare executive ability. Mr..
Dryden is a good taIker. He lives in
a modest way, and it is doubtful If
one in ten of his Newark neighbors
knew until recently what political
Vsrty he supports.
