"A DiminutiYe Street Sweeper.

Persons passing through Broadway late
at night may have often seen diminu-
tive figure, with broom yard taller
than himself, engaged with the night
gang in cleaning the street The little
sweeper''s name is John Boilan, and he
lives at No. $50 East Eleventh street.
Next to tom Thumb" or Commodore
Mutt, "Little Johnny" as he is called, is
perhaps the smallest man in this country.
He lives in q small, dark, rear room of a
big tenement house. An old woman who
occupies an adjoining room was asked if
she knew him.
&. Know JOHNNY" was the reply. "Bless
me! + have known Johnny for thirty
years. Why, Johnny is next to Tom
Tum; you've heard tell of Tom Tum?''
The old woman went on to relate numer-
Gus anecdotes about the smallest man in
New York, when lie appeared in person.
He came up the steps and walked brisk
" into the room. He is not more than
three feet tall, but very broad for his size.
His head and neck are out of proportion
othe rest Of his body, being as large as
those of a full-grown man. He was re
ticent at first, but gradually became
mere communicative. He said he was
forty-six years old, and was born at Bal
lyhochie, County Cavan, Ireland There
he lived until he was twenty one years
old. In the old country Johnny had a
small hoe and a spade made for him, and
contentedly raised potatoes until his pa
rents died and his brothers and sisters
came to America.
Deserted by his relatives, Johnny felt
lonesome, and when the ship which took
them away returned, he went to the cap
tain and told him he was going to Amer
lea also. The captain advised him to
stay in County Cavan, but his resolution
was taken, and he came to New York.
His small stature was a sore trial to him
at first. He was sensitive on the subject,
and when he ventured into the streets a
large crowd would follow him, and their
curiosity SO annoyed him that in sheer
desperation he at last made his way to
his friend the captain and told him he
wanted to go back to Ireland. The cap.
tain soothed his wounded feelings and
| told him that once he became known
| persons would stop annoying him. Sc
he went back and stolidly took no notice
/ Of the attention he attracted. He has
lived in New York for twenty-five years
and for eight years has been employed
on the street-cleaning force at full pay
II can swept two piles to any Of the others
