"A Squirrel Child"
Evansville Courier.

Evansville Courier.
VIscESNes, ND, April n.--The
wonderful squirrel child is creating
quite sensation in this neighborhood.
The parents of the child are Mr.. and
Mrs. George Kleinklous, who lives in
the southern part Of the city. The
father is employed at foundry, and
is as jolly fellow as one would care
to meet. They lave two children. a
boy and a girl, as fat as two youngs-
siers ever could get. On the 9th Of
February last, Mrs. X. gave birth to
the object which forms the basis Of
this article. 1t was almost lifeless,
and the doctor had bis hands full in
his efforts to resusc,.s.e Il. It rallied
however, and was treated as other
babies usually are. The matter Of his'
deformity was kept silent, but leaked
out. as such things usually will. The
child is now over a month old. While
it is not very healthy tits not in an
alarming condition 1t Weighs twelve
pounds and has not increased an iota
either in weight or stature since 1t
was born. The forehead is shaped
like a squirrels. with a human nose,
but decidedly inhnman upper lip.
l asked the father II it had teeth.
With a ashake Of the head he replied:
"If you'd put your finger in its mouth
once you'd soon find out. Conclu-
sion drawn from this---it has teeth. A
growth Of hair one inch long coyers
its head. and meanders down the
back onto the body, over which il ex-
tends-a colored fuz. In front Of its
ear is also a fuz, which reminds one
ofa young Americans incipiept beard,
The boys complexion is a light man
lila. The second and third fingers on
each hand and the relative toes on
each loot are webbed to TIE tips. The
others are webbed only midway. On
the fingers there is noticeable alb
sence Of the second joint, and the tip
joint is crooked like a claw The great
toes on each foot are double. Ii the
description stopped here the child
would be enough curiosity, but regard
for candor compels q full description
Of this strange child. From the el
bow underneath each arm 10 line
circumferential with the navel. OF
each side Of the body, extends .
transparent piece Of skin, exactly like
that Of flying squirrel. and which
conforms the opinion that the child j

This completes the description OF thu

One other peculiarity is the voice
which is unlike that Of the convon
tional baby. 1t resembles the pecul
lar sound made by squirrel whel
seized hold Of by strange hand. Mr.
Klienklaus is disposed to make th
best ola bad bargain. he want
the child to live, and says that be ]

and pronounce it curiosity Of tn
