Capt. w. w. Bates, of Ohio, who
lacks only half an inch of being eight
feet high, was found, yesterday, in his
rooms, sitting in front of the stove,
chatting with his wife, the Nova Scotia
giantess. The Captain is a grave gen
tleman, who takes life seriously. In his
boyhood he enjoyed good common
school education, which he has since
supplemented with wide reading, espec-
tally on the subject of physical devel-
opment. His pet theory is that mental
development leads to growth of body
and physical development to growth of
mind, always provided that the devel-
opment is normal.
The Captain is satisfied that the race
is not degenerating, physically, and
that bigger men are produced, now-a-
days, than ever before. Goliah, he
says, is described as six cubits and a
span in stature, but who knows, GER
tainly, how much cubit or span was?
Beside, the Jews were small people
