It ia said the dream of hia life has been to write a novel that will portray the South as it really was ia ante-bellum days. The American people are truly gen erous towards the sufferers in Galves ton, Texas. Ferhnps no person living in this country remembers a creator disaster to any one place by storm and flood, or in any other w: y, than has be fallen Galveston. From all parts of the country, from rich corporations to villagers oi modest means, the contri butions have been pouring in to the Governor of Texas. Perhaps the lar- le contributions were the ten thousand dollars each by the Standard Oil Co. and the Comercial Club of St. Louis. But from every direction there has been rich and gratifying evi dence that the people of this country teel the strong ties of brotherhood, and are glad to giv8 expression to the same m helping their fellow sufferers.

Tfca Kind too Han Always BoagM FROM PARIS. Mr. Johnson Urges industrial Education. ' Correspondence to The Commonwealth. 33 rue de Caumartm Paris, France, August 20th, 19C0. Americans, as a rule, are given too much to boasting of the greatness and advantages of our country without carefully measuring the strength of other nations. I do not know of any thing better calculated to inculcate a wholesome respect for the strength and ability of ether peoples than travelling abroad and getting intimately acquain ted with what the world is doing in educational, artistic and manufactur ing lines. It was with the hope of gathering information that would be of material assistance to us in the de- 1 m veiopment ana enlargement ol our educational work that I decided to come abroad this summer and study at the Paris Exposition and In the va rious countries of Europe especially the question of Industrial Education, and I must say that I am amazed at the vastness of the undertaking. I have bean fortunate in coming in touch with prominent educators and men who have shown a disposition to render a11 assistance that was in their power and the more I study the matter the more thoroughly do I realize how much we are behind in certain lines ot educational work in America. It would take too long to undertake to lay before your readers the many startling and interesting iacts that have been brought to my attentiou. I fcimnly write for the purpose of urg ing upon all State Officers, school boards and all others who have charge of the educational interests of our country to give the " matter of indus trial education more consideration e have eVBr don3 beforo. It -l r every pari oi tue worm we may Hr v' T . . i t j tion in manu-actured articles. So far as the production of raw material there ia do part of the world that is so for tunately situated as the United States and no part of the United States so fortunately situated as the Southern States for supplying raw material of almost every character and description. As matters stand now we are send ing our cottcn abroad and receiving sis and seven cents a pound for it and millions ol dollars worth oi it ia being manufactured in goodsof various Kinds and returned to us at from three to ten dollars a pound. It ia true we have been working up a great deal of the cotton in the fcouth but in the I coarser grades of cotton goods which do not afford such large profit to the J manufacturer or such liberal wages to the workers as the finer and better I I grades of muslins, lawns, etc, etc., We are also sending abroad vast quantities ol iron, steel, lumber, mar ble and other material wnicn is Demg manufactured into various ingenious and useful articles and returned to us at from 50 to 500 per cent, profit By establishing industrial training I in our schools, by giving our own i ' children other advantages, we may soon have a large number of skillful I artisans, artists, and workers in various lines who will use our raw material in supplying our varied add increasing wants and thus keep a great deal of the money that we are now sending abroad at home and afford more liber- al marerins for building 11 D our lndUS- - ,. tries, for educating our families advancing our interests in every pos 8i ble way. - Very soon after my return to Amen J ea I hope to lay before our friends I nnmfl verv practical suggestions that i - will prove of material advantage on all lines I haye indicated.

You will like SENATOR The New Senator From Indiana How He Has Steadily Risen Through a Fixed Purpose Formed in His Early Youth. Robert Shackleton in Saturday Evening Post. A flowboy at twelve, a United States Senator at tnirty-eeven be tween these extreme! lies a story. Albert J. Beveridge began life without opportunities, but with unconquerable courage ; without influence, but with indomita ble will ; without money, but with invincible industry. Foot by foot he fought his way from farm to college, from college to court-room, from court-room to Senate. By the power of a single purpose he made him self what be is. The average self-made man bears upon him some brand of the stress and struggle some taint of speech, some mark of manner, some line of face or figure, eloquent of those early days of rough work and coarse associations. But work and study--days under the bright sun and nights under the pale lamp body in the fields and mind among the stars 'leave a different stamp. They bring out the fine lines of muscle and character, knit a man close, physically and mentally. And this is one's first impression of Senator Beyeridge strength refined, physical and mental. It is in his step, firm and quick, the step of an alert mind ; it is in bis bearing, eay and confident, the bearing of a man at home in saddle or Senate ; and it is in his face, pale and serious the face of a man who has aimed high and 1 ought bard. A BOYH00.3 OF HARD WOKK. For, from the first, life was serious business to young Beveridge. He toil ed as bard as Abraham Lincoln and knew poverty as grinding as that ot Henry Clay. He was born after the Civil War began, October 6, 1862. At the outbreak of hostilities hia father's place was the most important in the neighborhood Mr. Beveridge, Sr., owned several farms and was consider ed well off ; but bard times came and with them the loss of everything. The father was a man of stern integ rity ; he set out steadily and conscien tiously to pay every cent that he owed, and thus the family was brought down to the verge of privation in order that his nice sense of honor might be pre served. Old men of Sullivan, Illinois, say that Albert Beveridge has plowed every field around the town except the V.,;- flrnnnAa and (ha WnnH PI1 ft farms. T ihnco Awt, harn(imat.lhiA n'nlnr-lr : ... ai H.B a i j u ,u ,, a ti fields by the time the sun rose. It .i ..i 5i was toil, toilj toil. No wonder young Beveridge welcom - ed rainy days, for then he could stay tnuoors ami iu, au .. u. space in reading the old Goodrich hif- tories of Greece ; Rome acd the United States, and whatever else be could lay his hands on. While yet a boy he drew the constitutions of secret socie ties and Iiteraay associations, and al ways took a leading part in the debates n the High School. In those days, too, he was a great soldier. Born at the beginning of the war, in a centre of war sentiment, be inherited tbe military instinct strongly, and through out his boyhood was at the head of military organizations. In those days the Francis Murphy movement was spreading in the West. When it reached Sullivan tbe people crowded the court-house. The youth ful Beveridge was the principal speak er. He Had committed to memory most of his remarks, and his addresa of an hour and a half is still re member ed in the town. In all these ysars he was putting in most of tbe time at work and.in got ting an education. For two year he was in a log rollers' camp. In that region grew most ot me wainui usea by -he country, and it was the getting out of those logs that formed tbe hard work ql the lumbermen. On one occasion the men began what promised to be a free fight,"but the boy jumped in and remonstrated so elo quently that he temporarily stopped the row. Then, seeing bis advantage, he seized a boom pole and threatened the whole crowd if they resumed tbe fracas. The fight was called off. A PLUCKY FIGHT FOR A COLLEGE EDU-' CATION. Alter these experienceshe was then only fourteen young Beveridge deter mined to carry out his determination to go to college. For a time he sold papers, and out of his profits bought a suit of clothes. He worked in the post- office, he drove a dray and hauled lum ber, and, by working continuously, saved a little money. In the m-nr while tbiugs locked bright upon the farm ; but the great drought of 1878-9 S3X4C Thi f M tm nm Mm HCZ spy- CZxitf'jg BEVERIDGE. destroyed the crops, and the small sum that the boy had saved went to the support of his father and mother. It was then that the promised edu cation seemed absolutely hopeless, but it happened that there was a vacancy at Weet Point and the place was thrown open to competitive examination. Young Beveridge took the examina tion and did well in evrry study except one. While he was reading, a wag among the contestants made him laugb, and this incident lost him the scholarship by one-fifth of one per cent. The man who beat bim was Lieutenant Brown, who has been sta tioned at Fort Sheridan. When voung Beyeridge learned that he had lost he was wretchedly misera ble. He was standing upon a corner, not knowing what to do or where to turn, when Edward. Anderson, who now lives at Lamoure, North Dakota, came along. "What's the matter?" he asked. "More than enough," was the reply. "I failed to get the West Point scholar ship, and I don't see how 1 can ever get a college education." "You go ahead acd get ready," said Mr. Anderson. "I'll see you through." Tne offer was accepted. He went ahead and got ready and gave Mr. An derson his note for the fifty dollars which he loaned him. Mr. Anderson says that this was the beet investment he ever made. Young Bevpridee's struggle through college was one of pluck and bard work. He won a prize, and bis father was able to send him a little money ; and these combined to put bim through the first term. During the summer vacation he cut more than 210 acres of wheat and drove the first self-binder ever seen in that region. With the money earned he was able to return to his studies. Of him, whie he was at Asbury Uni versity, now De Pauw, at Greencastle, his old room-mate, Graham Phillips, says : "Albert Beveridge was the man in college. We all recognized that. 1 was his room-mate for a year and prob ably had better chances of knowing 1. : . I.

He walked over the country roads into the woods and exercised his muscles and his voice. Even then he had decided to enter public Hie and be an orator. He got back at six and read an hour before breakfast. Sometime be read essays of orationp, but often it was Shakes- peare. t know very few more thor ough Shakespearean scholars than Mr, Beveridge. I don't know what the Senator can do now, but there was a time when he could repeat whole i scenes from the plays and carry parts through whole dramas without mis quoting a word. "Naturally be took tbe leading place in the Platonian Literary Society, aud there won immediate success as a de baterand organizer. He was also a member ot tbe Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity and was the chief spirit in that nr&ranixation. I do not tDinit l ever saw Beveridge lose his temper, His command over himself was little less than marvelous. Again, there was nniMncr th.it he was afraid of. He didn't know what fear meant, euner nhrsipallv or mentaliv. He was one of the m-Mt muscular men I ever saw c j fc - He was not tall, but be was as strong -a iTiint. His wort in toe mmoer i camp did that. ' , "0.e summer va?at:on toward tne end ot h's course he became asubtcnp tion book canvasser. He did eo well that the publisher offered him the agency of the State of Iowa for the H -1 next summer, tfevenage oegau ua work characteristically. Weeks before vacation he selected a corps of bright young college men who, , like himself needed money, and drilled them lor Wis worsr. x irsi, no went iumuSu us role of an agent went tbrongh it with exhaustive detai?.

Those who couldn't learn were weeded out mercilessly, until, when commence ment was over, he had a staff capable of doing wonders. The result of that two months campaign led to a brilliant offer from the publisher. Bat Mr. Beveridge rjsced it without a second thought, and when hf. was graduated he went to Indianapolis with only $300 in his pocket, and began to study law. "Mr. Beveridge won the honors that came to him in college by sheer merit Tnere were some professors whose in clinations might have carried them to bestow favors in other directions, but they could not ignore Beveridge ex cept by the grossest disregard., of com mon justice. His was the most prom inent head in the whole college and, of course, was the general target for all sorts of missiles, but he fought his way through witti a courage, self reliance and force that carried everything be fore them. He was the prize college orator. He won the first place in the State coniest, and was the orator in the interstate contest at Columbus Ohio. During all the years I knew him intimately he never deviated from bis purpose a hair's breadth. As a freshman be planned his life. He de cided ol! a public career, and to aim high. " 'A man in public life must be inde pendent,' he once said to me. 'One of the curses of our public life is that some mm are not truly independent.' "Mr. Beveridge could have acquired this independence through the book business, but he wanted to make it in his own way, and within a few yean after he left college he was arguing for the State before the Supreme Court of the United State3. A man who has secured such position at the bar ( ought to be independent, if any man is." . While Mr. Beveridge was yet a boy ! big abilities were recognizee and he bee:; me cna of the party orators. In the Garfield campaign he spoke fre quently. First in a barn, then in a stable, aud afterward from the regular platforms. By this time his reputa tion bad been vrell made aud the State Committee added bim to Its list ol regular speakers. (Continued next week.)
