Miss Maud Milliken, the daughter of Hon Seth L. Milliken, who has represented for twelve years in Congress the Maine District so long represented by James G. Blaine, inherits many of the distinguishing traits of her talented father.

Miss Milliken is a native of Augusta, Maine. She is descended on her father's side from Sir James Milliken, of Scotland, who was knighted by King James for his military achievements, and on her maternal grand-father's side from one of the Counts of Perigneux, of France, whose burial place, with its elaborate tomb and monument, are at Pere la Chase.

Miss Milliken, after receiving a rudimentary education at her Maine home, attended the Allen School, near Boston, and studied music, both in Boston and New York. She possesses a clear, sweet, soprano voice, and leads the church choir at home. Miss Milliken has accompanied her father to Washington for a number of winters, where she is a favorite among her acquaintances. She is a beautiful girl of refined, gentle manners, and possesses a strong character.
