IllllCr.'S K.lltl.V DA vs. Tho Ohio Millionaire Worked 1II Own Unv to the Top. A yenr ago, writes J. H. Hvans In the Times-Herald, I spent the day with ex-Secietury of the Treasury Charles Foster at his home In Postoilu. In the coutso of a very long Interview he spoke of ex-Senator Calvin S. Hi Ice. Poster, It must be remembered, discov ered the llnancler. He told me that Llrlcp was the shrewdest pollttclnn and had the keenest perception of any mnn he knew anything about. He told me of Hrlce's Ute from the time ho ellscov eied him as a clerk at I.ltna up to that period, and spoke about his davs In poverty and how he spent the night one time at his home. There weie only two beds In the lesldence. Mis. Hi Ice and the chlldicn occupied one, while he nnd Mr. Hi lee slept In the other. In the night the slats bioke In twain and they weie forced to lie on the ltoor until mottling. He told me this to lllustiutc the scantiness of Hi Ice's furnltute ut one time In his history, nnd then he went on to ele sulbe the goiseousness of his Wash ington mansion. Foster took Hrlce to New Yoik In later yeais and got him a osltlou with a rall- hoail coi potation. Some months later Fostel met Hi Ice's employ er, who, talking about the young Ohloan, said that lie wus the most ulu uble mun In the employ of the sys tem. "Why." he sold, "I can't ask him a question that he can't answer. He Is absolutely Indispensable" Fos ter told Hrlce about the conversation, llrlco was pleased, and told Foster that he hud never allowed "the old man," as he called him, to Interrogate him or ask his advice on any subject that he did not give him an Instant leply. Then, when he had time, he consulted some authorlt on the matter and If wiong he would conect himself with "the old man.' TJut he was nevr so poor as to be without an answer of oino sort at the moment. Hrlce and his pal tner were oilgln ally Hepubllcans. When their rall loael inteiests grew so as to demand pcditical attention It was ntrieed that one of tlwtn must become a Democint. To decide which one should deseit the Hepubllcans a coin, wus tossed in the air. Hi Ice lost. tiii: juixsr.'s ciiAitci:. It Was Short and Pointed Hut It Proved Hllccthc.
