Elected t Fill Out Term of Lute
Hmatur Prortur,
The following story from the New
York Times has considerable local In
terest In the way that tbe "Calfskin"
Senator referred to Is an uncle of
Dr. F. C. Page of this city:
With the election to the United
States senate of Carroll 8. Page of
Vermont to fill out the unexpired
term of the late Redfield Proctor,
Washington, D. C. has acquired a
new brand of legislator namely, a
"calfskin" senator. There have been
oil" senator, railroad senators and
lumber senators, but never before
has the humble calfskin reached such
heights of dignity. In this Instance,
however, Mr. Page represents his
own tannery and not a cattle trust.
Meeting a loyal son of Vermont,
he was asked: "What has this new
man, Page, your new senator, done
to be sent to Washington?"
"Calfskins," replied the loyal son
of Vermont; "Carroll 8. Page has
bought more calfskins than any
other man in the United States."
Then was told a characteristically
American story of a poor boy who
built up a big business, and is now
president of two banks, a director
of railroads, and one of the very few
millionaires In his state. Tbls Is
rega-ded as no slight achievemen.,
because, as the Vermonter put It,
"any old fool can find a million in
New York, but It takes brains to do
It In Vermont."
Mr. Page's fortune all originated
In the tannery business at Hyde
Park. In Lamoille county, and the
Inquirer was Immediately assured
that the nomenclature of the town
containing the tannery Is merely a
coincidence and not a hideous at
tempt at the Jocular. When, how
ever, the "King of Hyde Park" de
cided to "break Into" politics his
troubles began.
In 1890 he was elected governor
of Vermont, and In tbe campaign to
secure the Republican nomination re
ceived tbe title wblcb has stuck to
him ever since. Some political rival
referred to him as "Mr. C. S. Page,
whose Initials aptly fit his business,
calfskin," and "Calfskin Page" he
has been In Vermont ever since. It
made excellent material for campaign
humor, this play on his name, but
while his opponents were chuckling
over the Joke, Page got the nomina
tion and was elected governor.
Years ago, when they were chil
dren. Miss Hearam and Matthew
Hearam of Albany, N. Y., who, al
though he bears the same name, Is no
relation, were playmates, and as
they grew up their childhood friend
ship ripened Into love. They became
separated, but neither forgot the
other, and although there had been
but one meeting In 17 years, each re
mained true.
Miss Hearam's friends gave her a
party, and after It was over she went
for the night to the home of a
friend, Mrs. Ellen Vox, at 147 Smith
street. She slept with one of the
daughters, and when the daughter
awoke she found Miss Hearam ill. A
physician was summoned, but before
he arrived the woman was dead.
Death was pronounced due to heart
failure.
The man who was to have been
the groom Is arranging tbe funeral.
