Some AmuaIng Stories Are Told Of HI

UOme AmuAIng Stories Are Told OF Ills
LIteraInssa.
Carl Sumner was a man Of great
qualities and of small defects. His
biemishes, which were easily discerned,
were temperamental rather than NOR
n. He had not the sort OF imagina-
easily into the feelings of others, and
this deficiency on his part sometimes
! resulted in unnecessary rudeness, says
the Atlantic Monthly. Charles Sum-
ner's appearance was seriously meta
morphosed by a severe attack of ty-
phoid fever which he suffered, think.
in 1843 or 1874. After his recovery he
gained much in flesh and entirely lost
that ungainliness of aspect which once
led friend to compare him to geom-
etrical line, length without breath or
thickness" He now became a man OF
strikingly fine presence, his great
height being Offset by a corresponding
fullness of figure. His countenance
was strongly marked and very indi-
vidual, the features not handsome in
themselves, but the whole effect very
pleasingly impressive. He had but
Httle sense OF humor, and was not at
home in the small cut-and-thrust skir-
mishes Of general society. He was
made for serious issues and for great
contests. which then lay, unguessed.
before him. OF his literalness some
amusing anecdotes have been told. At
an official ball in Washington he re-
marked to young lady who stood be-
side him: I'VE are fortunate in having
these places for standing here; we
shall see the first entrance Of the new
English and French ministers into
Washington society!" The young girl
replied, II am glad to hear 1t. like
to see lions break the ice." Sumner
was silent for few minutes. but pfes-
emily said: Miss -, In the country
where lions live there is no Ice" I
once invited Mr.. Sumner to meet .
distinguished guest at.my house. He
replied: 81 do not know that wish to
meet your friend. 1 have outlived the
interest in individuals" In my diary
of the day recorded the somewhat
ungracious utterance with this COM
ment: God Almighty, by the latest
accounts. had not got so far as this"
Mr.. Sumner was told Of this in my
presence, though not by me. He said
at once: What a strange sort Of q
book your diary must be! You ought
to strike that out immediately"

NARROW ESCAPE.

South Haven-The passenger steamer
City of Grand Rapids, with 200 persons
o board, narrowly escaped laundering
in mid ke last night
The steamer was bound for Milwaukee
and was thirty five miles out when a
large amount Of water was discovered in
the hold. The water was pouring in
from many leaks and to make the situa-
ton more desperate the engineer was
unable to start the pumps going. When
the water rose until it was two inches OF
the fires the steamer was turned around
and headed for South Haven. The pas
sengers we're awakened ma told to pre-
pare thems 9lves for what might happen.
A wild scramble for lif saving apparatus
followed. just before the fires were put
out by the Incoming wnter, the en- yineer
succeeded in rigging up one Of the
pumps, which held the water in check
until port was reached again at 6 o'clock
this morning
