AN INDIAN WHAT Is IT."
Exhibition of Extraordinary Human
Freak Before New York Physicians.

Exhibition of an Extraordinary Human
Freak Before New York Physicians.
The Metropolitan Hotel in New York was
converted into a temporary museum Yesterday
for the purpose of exhibiting the extraordinary
human freak from India. The audience was
composed exclusively of physicians and news
paper men,
The exhibition yesterday took place in a
private parlor- Two men who were introduced
as physicians. but who we're strangers to the
other medical men present, brought in ''Laloo,
the double-bodied boy"
..Laloo' is full-blooded Hindo. and as
brown as berry. Ii he was regular every
day sort OF boy he would attract attention in
n crowd. for he has Il singulariy handsome face
a mass of shiny black curls, the cutest of mus
taches and sparkling eyes Viewed from be-
hind he is as straight as an arrow.
But when you pass around ard get front
view of Laloo you wish you hadn't, for Laloo
is more than one boy. lie is boy and half
In the language of the scientific medical men
he is an extraordinary example of parasitic
growth. Growing out OF Laloos well-developed
chest is another boy. which hangs down in
front Of him until its feet nearly touch the
floor.
The other boy has no head, but has two
arms. part OF a body, and from the waist down
is in every respect like fully developed boy.
except that Its feet are somewhat twisted out OF
shape and its legs are limp and shriveled from
not receiving natural exercise. Neither the
arms nor legs possess the power to move,
though Laloo can place the arms of his half
brother about his own neck and can fling him
about as he pleases without injury to himself.
Laloo, however, is sensitive to any pain that
is inflicted on the other boy. Stick pin in
its leg and lie will vince. Tickle its foot and
he will laugh. Laloo has to 90 all the eating
and breathing for the other chap. The half
boy has a stomach and something inside of it,
but IL has no lungs and no ribs Ii has to alb
sorb food and breath from Laloo.
The physici.ns were very much surprised to
find pulse feebly beating in the lit" but
they were not able to determine whether or not
II possessed an independent heart. Ialoo said
that his constant companion did not cause him
the slightest inconvenience, and he demon
| strated his agility by clasping it in his arms
and running about the room. leaping over fur
niture and kicking his heels as high as his
, head. This, the physicians explained, the boy
| could do because the parasite attached to him
| Is connected with his abnormally developed
; breast bone and causes him no more bother
than does big stomach on Il fat man. They
! expressed the opinion, however, that the para
site ought TO be chopped away from Laloo, and
| they felt certain that u skilled surgeon could
perform the operation in live minutes without
I injury 10 Laloo.
Laloo is eighteen years old. was born in In
dia and speaks the English language very well
/ He has two brothers and a sister. They are moi
IN any way deformed.
