Gossip About Noted People
Ueaeral Gnat's First Smoke.
AJOR GENERAL. FRED D.
GRANT, who presided at the"
court-maVtia! eeaslon at Fort
Wayne, in the western suburbs
of Detroit, said to some friend
that the cigar that Initiated his
M
father, the late President U. a Grant, into
the tobacco smoking habit really figured
quite strongly In the winning of the bat
tle of Fort Donaldson. Speaking of this
Incident, General Grant said:
"My father was In conference with Ad
miral Foote on the tatter's frsgshlp and
had Just accepted a cigar from the ad
Jtlral when word came to him that the
left flank of his forces was being repulsed.
"Hurrying ashore and galloping on a
fleet horse to the battlefield, he succeeded
la rallying his forces so completely that
chaos was turned Into victory. General
Buckner had to comply with my father's
demand for an unconditional surrender.
"Tlia newspapers took up the fact that
father had rushed from the war ship to
the battlefield without taking Admiral
Foots' a cigar from his mouth. The dls
patches from the front told how father
had oo me onto the battlefield 'cool and
collected and peacefully smoking a long,
black cigar.'
"People who read the story began send
ing congratulations and presents of cigars.
Tn of thousands of cigars came, and ray
father smoked many of them. It made a
confirmed smoker of him.
"But he did not smoke as many cigars
as people Imagined lie did. Sometimes one
cigar that he would frequently re-light
would last him from breakfast to luncheon.
It was the fact that he almost constantly
held a cigar between his fingers that made
people describe hlin as a great smoker."
General Grant said that his father tried
to acquire the smoking habit at West
Point lust because the rules forbade smok
ing. His attempts at smoking while he
was a cadet, however, made him very sick
and when be left West Point he practically
gave them up. During the Mexican war.
General Grant said, his father took a lik
ing to the Mexican cigars and found that
they agreed with him, but when he re
turned to the north he again dropped the
habit of smoking, to resume it after the
Fort Donaldson incident.
Mr. Tail's Personality.
As a matter of fact, writes "An English,
man" In Harper's Weekly, to anyone who
knows Mr. Taft the charge that he lacks
"personal magnetism" Is simply laughable.
I will defy anyone to come across him in
private without feeling drawn toward this
good-humored, unconventional, rollicking
giant, with his frank, free bearing, his
massive look of power and adequacy,
radiating air o jollity and seat I recall
that at the first moment of our meeting
and this, I think, roust be pretty nearly
every one's experience he made on my
mind and senses four distinct Impressions.
The first was that he was Immensely lik
able. His heartiness, his genlulity, you fait
at once, rang true. There followed In
stantly the cor.vlctlon that here was a man
you could trust to the last In his face,
his eyes, his whole manner of bearing,
Mr. Taft carries the unmistakable stomp
of an engaging and unswerving Integrity,
He la one of the most palpably honest men
I have ever encountered. He is honest
even In his politics. Indeed, It is hardly
too much to say that his politics are com
prised in saying straight out precisely
what he thinks. He is almost as incapa
ble as Lord Rosebery himself, though from
widely different causes, of the distortions
of partisanship.
My second Impression of Mr. Taft as he
sat down, munched a sandwich, hoisted a
huge leg over the arm cf his chaJr, and re
lieved the waistcoat buttons of their nor
mal functions it was In his official room
In the War department was that, what
ever might be his shortcomings, affecta
tion, "frills," pretentiousness of any kind,
were not among them. A snapshot of Mr.
Taft at tliat moment would have made an
admirable study of democracy In undress.
My third and fourth Impressions I call
them the third and fourth, though they
came simultaneously with the others were
those of an unhurried, ever ready Instinct
and capacity for dealing with men and
things. Mr. TaXt'a overwhelming physique
alone seemed somehow to guarantee his
efficiency. One could not Imagine the
problem that would not give way beneath
such an Impact; and one could quite easily
conceive him crashing through all obsta
cles and entanglements with the all-conquering
certainty of a smiling, patient,
supremely human steam roller. This, In
deed, Is precisely what he has been doing
for the last ten years.
Vermont's Calfskin Senator."
Wrtti the election to the United States
senate of Carroll S. Page of Vermont tu
fill out the unexpired term of the late
Redfleld Proctor, Washington has acquired
a new brand of legislator namely, a "calf
skin" senator. There have been "oil'' sen
ators, railroad senators, and lumber sen
ators, relates the New York Times, 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 haa this new man. Page,
your new senator, done to be sent to
Washington?"
"Calfskins," replied the loyal son of Ver
mont; "Carroll 8. Page has bought more
calfskins than any other man In the United
8tates."
Then was tojd characteristically Amer
ican story of a poor boy who built up a
big business, and Is now president of two
banks, a director of railroads and on of
the very few millionaire In his state. Thla
la regarded as no slight achievement, be
cause, as the Vermonter put It, "any old
fool can find a million In New York, but
It takts brains to do it In Vermont." .
Mr. Page's fortune all originated In the
tannery business at Hyde Park, In La
moille county, and the Inquirer was im
mediately assured that the nomenclature
of the town containing the tannery Is
merely a coincidence, and not a hideous
attempt at the Jocultr. When, however,
the "king of Hyde Park" decided to "break
Into" politics, his troubles began.
In 1MW he was elected governor of Ver
mont, and In the campaign to secure the
republican nomination received the title
which has stuck to him ever since. Borne
political rival referred to him as "Mr. C.
S. Page, whose Initials aptly fit his busi
ness, calfskin," and "Calfskin Page" he
has been In Vermont ever since. It made
excellent material for campaign humor,
this play on his name, but whilo his op
ponents were chuckling over the J jke Page
got the. nomination and was elected gov
ernor. A Comedian's Vaaary.
Frank Daniels, the well known comedian.
Is said to have a most extraordinary fear of
death.
. If he can posBlbly back out from attend
ing a funeral he invariably does so. In
fact. It is said that he never went to one
in his life until KJrke La Shclle. his old
time friend and manager, died a short time
ago.
Then It was absolutely necessary tor
PankJj to go to the funeral He did. But
he arrived back at his homo in Rye, N. Y.,
In a state of great agitation and promptly
i took to his bed.
But as nothing seemed to be the matter
wltli him, ho gradually plucked up courage
and decided to arise, as usual, the next day.
His valet asked him whether he desired
