MISS EDDY OF CHICAGO TO WE'D
ALBERT J. BEvERlDGE.
Girl Comes from Prominent Family
and Has Been Presented at Sew
eral Europea7 courts-eride-
groom a National Figure.

Chicago.-Miss Katherine Eddy,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Augustus N
Eddy of this city has been wooed and
won by United States Senator Bev-
eridge of Indiana. Senator Beveridgc
recently sailed for Europe. Miss
Eddy is in Germany visiting her
brother Spencer Eddy, who is secre-
tary of the United States legation in
Berlin.
The date of the wedding, according
to friends here, has not been definite
ly fixed, but will occur before con-
gress reassembles in December.
The announcement of the engage
ment of Miss Eddy TO Senator Bever-
idge created no surprise In Washing
ton. Miss Eddy spent the last two
seasons in that city, and her parents
lived in fashionable apartment
house at Sixteenth and M streets
northwest. The family closed the
apartment early in the spring, and
Miss Eddy went to Europe to arrange
her trousseau.
Miss Eddy is a niece of Mrs. Mar
chall Field. Both her father and
mother belong to the families long
prominent in Chicago. Her mother
was Miss Abbie l.. Spencer, daughter
of the founder of the firm of Hubbard,
Spencer & Co.
She was graduated some years ago
| from an eastern college and after her
| graduation spent some time abroad.
She was presented to Chicago society
four or five years age, and since then
has spent a part of each year In
Europe, travelling sometimes with
her mother and at other times with
Mrs. Marshall Field She is a lin
guist of rare ability and has been pre-
sented at several of the courts OF
Europe.
Miss Eddy has great personal
charm. She is tall, slender and grace
| full, and has a wealth of golden hair
which she wears in heavy braids
twined about the crown of her head
alluded to by her friends as "Kath
crime Eddys natural coronet."
Miss Eddy is fond of walking, and
while in Washington she and Senator
Beveridge frequently took long walks
into the country and not infrequently
Miss Eddy accompanied him on hi:
morning walk to the capitol. She
took the keenest interest in his strug
gle for legislation to prevent the EN-
ployment of child labor and was in
terested in his speeches.
