Hughes Son of a Minister.

Justice Hughes was born at Glens
Falls, n. Y, April II, 1862. His father
was the Rev. David C. Hughes, a Bap-
fist minister. Early in his youth his
family removed to Newark, n. J. Here
the boy was educated at the public
schools, from which he was graduated
in 1873 at the %precocious age of eleven
years. He was too young to enter col
1ege. In 1878, however. he determined
that conditions at Brown university
would be more to his purpose, and in
1881 he was graduated from the latter
university at the age of nineteen, hav-
ing won meanwhile the Dunn premium
for the highest standing in English lit
erature. During the next two years
he taught mathematics at Delaware
academy, Delhi, at the same time at
tending the Columbia Law school. In
1854 he graduated from the latter in
s%titutiOn as prize a
For the next three years he was q
special lecturer in law, having been adj
mitted to the bar in New York in his
graduation year. Until 1887 he had
therefore the benefit of the training
given by teaching law for four even
ings Il week. Meanwhile he had be
come a clerk in the offices of Chamber
lain, Carter & Hornblower. Justice
Hughes married in 1888 Miss Antoi-
nette Carter, the daughter of w. S.
Carter, a member of the firm. From
1891 to 1898 he held a professorship at
Cornell university.
Shortly after he resumed his active

ly it would be indeed strange If any
American should be uniformed as
to who Charles Evans Hughes and
Charles w. Fairbanks are-that is, the
position "the two Charles" as they
have been classed by some of their
political friends, have held in pub
lie life for a considerable period
past. Yet is it interesting to note how
little your neighbor can tell you about
a man directly after he has been
nominated for high office, ven though
he may have been continually in the
public eye for years.
In the case of Justice Charles Evans
Hughes most of us know he sat as a
member Of the United States supreme
court, but the fact that he first gained
fame by exposing the gas companies
in New York while acting as a public
investigator is not generally familiar
talk. This also applies to his running
mate. Although a former vice presi-
dent, Charles Warren Fairbanks had
a very humble beginning, being born
on a farm. So, searching through
the lives of these standard bearers of
the Republican party. We find along
every step of the way up their path
has been no bed of roses. but only by
dint of hard work and skill have both
reached their present stations before
the public.
