dwaft OF barely three feet. known as
General Small, to Sophia Goddard. whose
height did not exceed that of her hus-
band. was made much of by the British
press. but many similar and more re-
markable weddings are record.
Tom Thumb. who was hardly thirty
inches high. married in 1868 Lavinia War
rem. who topped him by a bare inch. A
child was born to them three years later,
but 1t died while yet an infant. Tom
Thumb himself died in 1885, and his
widow some years later married another
| dwarf, with whom, and troupe of
pygmies. she appeared last summer. Her
sister. Minnie Warren, who had been
bridesmaid at the first wedding. likewise
espoused one of her own stature in the
person of Commodore Mutt the best man
on the same auspicious occasion.
Two remarkable dwarfs-the smallest
human beings, indeed, on record-were
exhibited at a hall in Piccadilly. Their
names We're Lucia Larate and General
Mite. The former, when seventeen, stood
| twenty inches in height, and weighed un-
der five pounds while the latter was an
inch taller and four pounds heavier.
| These mites, who were a prodigious at
| traction. and received the distinguished
| honor of being exhibited to the queen.
were married before an immense throng
| of people at st. Martins church.
To pass to the opposite extreme one
may record the marriage of Miss Anna
swan to Capt Martin Van Buren, Bates,
Whien was Solemnized some twenty years
| since. Bates, who was, for giant re-
| markably well-made man, stood about
| seven feet eight inches and weighed 27S
| pounds. while the bride was some two
lnches and Sixtyfour pounds less. To
tnese two was born a child, which, how :
| ever. only survived its birth a few days.
| II certainly gave promise to rival it's par
ents giant proportions. for when it came
| into the world 1t measured considerably
| over two feet in length
Another remarkable marriage was that
which took place on Nov. 80, 1892 at
Hupers museum, New York, when
| Chauncey Morlan, weighing 57S pounds,
married Miss Annie Bell. who weighed $50
pounds Without doubt they are the
most weighty couple living.

feeling Frau Blumenthal did not share.
and she said to her husband one day:
, II only had 20 marks for every thou
sand the piece will bring you in I should
be quiet content. All right, YOU shall
nave them,' said Herr Blumenthal.
Inc piece was produced and was an
immense success Every evening Frau
Blumenthal went to the cashier and
levied her 20 marks per thousand One
evening, after the piece had been run
ming some months. the weather was so
bad that the audience had fallen off So
that there was not a thousand marks In
the mouse. and, consequently no 20 marks
Tor Frau Blumenthal How much have
you taken?' she asked the cashier. "Onlv
sS1 marks" was the reply "Give me a
seat at thaler them said Frau Blumen-
thal, producing her purse and laytns
down the coin. Now you have a. thou
