TALLEsT MAN On EARTH.
Tie Is Ten Feet Eleven Inches In
flight.

Dame nature'has apparently out
done herself in Edward Bsaupre,
the young French. Canadian giant.
who bids fair to outrival the famous
one-eyed giant Polyphemus, OF Ho-
mer's time, while he overtops by
several feet modern competitors.
Beaupre, therefore, enjoys the
proud distinction Of being the tall
est man on earth. He is thirty
years old, tips the scales at 5s7
pounds and stands ten feet eleven
inches high, his hands measuring
nineteen inches, and his feet TWEEN
four inches by twelve wide. A two
yard tape measure barely encircles
his chest,
Each of his trousers legs can
contain the figures OF t~o ordinary
persons, and there Is sufficient
cloth in one of his suits to outfit ten
average men, The massive frame
work of each of his outstretched-
arms will bear the weight of three
athletes. A man FIVE feet ten inches
by his side appears a mere pigmy.
One of the peculiarities about
Beaupre is that his father and
mother we're of ordinary size. From
youth he has been great gymnast
and has given much time to athletic
sports.-New York Herald.

PROPOSED EXTENSIONS.
New Road to Connect with Hop

Division.

Sturgis KY, Feb, D. This and
Crittenden counties are consider
ably interested in the evidently au.
thoritive statement that the Illinois
Central has let the contract for an
extension from Colorado to Cave-in
Rock, H., and Marion, Ky, connect
ing at the latter place with its Ev
ausville and Hopkinsville division
and proposing to connect at Gracey
with a line to Clarksville, and from
there to purchase the new road
building into Nashyill. the propos-
ed route of which is on to Charles
ton, S. c.
This would give the Illinois Central
the most direct line from the South
to st. Louis 1t is claimed that the
road will be ready for the handling
of the worlds FAIR traffic.
Supplementing the foregoing an
nouncement is another that the L.
& N. Road will probably utilize its
old road bed here and extend from
Providence crossing the Ohio near
Caseyville, and tapping its Illinois
lines leading to St. Louis.

features for the current year-lhe
"Reminiscences Of Daniel {. Gilman.
who was for twenty-five years was
president OF Johns Hopkins Uni.
versity. President Gilman created
a new type of University in
America, and one which has proved
5ts success by the great number Of
scholars and distinguished men
which IL has already produced by
ats exact methods OF study. The

ahe story of the conception of the
OF the idea, and the first steps in
gathering together the remarkable
group of Pr, fess"is Nho the outset
gave the Universary prestige among
ssen of learning President Gilman
mas an unusual gift for telling an
incident WITH humor aud dlrectness.
This first paper is filed with good
stories of such men as Huxley,
George Peabody, Rowland, the
great scientist, Sylvester, etc.
Two more papers VIII continue, in
ahis most entertaining manner, to
describe the growth of the univer-

A very curious bi-literal cipher
which has been discovered by Mrs.
Gallup running through the first
editions of Bacon's works, has ex-
cited wide interest in the literary
world. This cipher consists Of two
wrong-font letters at intervals,
combinations OF these two letters in
groups of FIVE constitute an alpha
bet. These repetitions of a wrong
font letter can not have been mat
tiers of chance. Whether placed
there by Lord Bacon or by the
printer. remains in doubt If by the
printer, they relate wonderful 70
mance-the story of Queen Eliza
beth S marriage to the Earl of Lei
cester when both were confined in
The tower prior to the Queens ae-
cession; the birth Of two sons, OF
whom Lord Bacon was the elder,
the Earl of Essex the other. Lord
Bacon considered himself the heir
10 the throne of England. The BIZ
literal cipher tells that Queen
Elizabeth condemned her own son,
The Earl Of Essex, to death. The
Cosmopolitan for March contains an
article by Prof. Garrett P. Serviss
fully reviewing this remarkable ro-
nance-if it is concluded to have
been inserted by the printer-or
tragedy if inserted by Lord Bacon.
