She Met Future Husband, on Shipboard on Return Luropean Irip Is Mother of Three Lhiluren. No American girl, not even President Roosevelt's daughter, ever had a more brilliant wedding than Nellie Grant, the beloved child of the great Civil War hero; yet of late years the public, which has always taken a kindly inter- est in Gen. Grant's family, has heard comparatively little of his only daugh- ter. When Mrs. Julia Dent Grant, widow of the President, was living, her daughter spent much time with her mother at the latter's home in the city of Washington, but since the death of her mother Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris can scarcely be said to have had a fixed residence in any American city. How- ever, she has always been very fond of St. Louis, and she made her home in the Mi the in progress there, Possibly the liking of Mrs. Sartoris for St. Louis fact that her occurred at time the ent World's Fair was re 1855, Dent's birth, her in August, Grandfather country home near St, Louis, the birth- | When t General and in- of mother. ted Presiden place her Grant was deed durin he and House, Toward ele g his wife lived at the the daughter was at school the close of President Grant's first term, however, Miss Nellie made her social debut at the Presidential mansion, and her cadet brother, home from West Point, was her escort and companion, MET PRINCE CHARMING, General Grant's daughter made a tour of Europe soon after she formally entered society, and everywhere re- ceived the most distinguished atten- tions from the royal famil Britain and the Continent. way home on met Mr. Sartoris, t who was later to hand.

BLESSED WITH CHILDREN. Mrs, Nellie Grant Sartoris had three two daughters and a son. | The son, who bears his father's name, Algernon, was for a time an officer in the United States army and saw some service in the Philippines, but his | health compelled the abandonment of a military career. During the past few years he has traveled extensively, and some months ago was married to a very beautiful young woman in Paris. The eldest daughter, was married a year or two gince, the younger daughter, Rosemary, the beauty of the family, is still unmarried, Some months since much discussion was precipitated when it was rumored that she was engaged to the son one of the Confederate generals fought against General Grant in campaigns of the Civil War, Mrs. Nellie. Grant Sartoris is a woman who has always been held In high esteem by a large circle of fem- inine friends. From her school days she has seemed to inspire the regard of members of her own sex, and some idea of her popularity may be formed that on the occasion of she was attended by smaids. all gowned alike. Mrs. Sartoris is several years younger than her famous brother, Gen. Fred D.

Indications are favorable, the report states, to the further growth of this pursuit both In Irrigation and rain. fell districts. “The industry is prov. ing to be a powerful ald to commer. cihl, agricultural and industrial devel opment It promotes irrigation immi gration, land settlement, the building of railroads and trolley lines, the making of other Improvements, and the upbuilding of various industrial enterprises. Such results can only be appreciated by those who have visited the factory districts In Colorado, Utah and Idaho, or In other newly settled and improved areas throughout the West. The beneficial effect of the industry Is also shown In the better settled. mote highly developed agri cultural districts of the East, where, after beets have been given a proper trial In competition with established crops, they are demonstrating their staying qualitites and potency In in dustrial development.” GROWS MORE THAN IT EATS One feature of this report is a series of tables accompanied with outline maps designed to show graphically the magnitude of sugar production in that part of the country lying west of the Misslssippl River.
