LILLIPUTIANS ARE COMING.
Group of Strange Little People Trav.
cling With Barnum
Shows.

One-half the size of General Tom
Thumb. two members of the Barnum
x Bailey shows LilIiputian troupe are
probably the smallest human beings
alive. This strange aggregation of lit
tie people, Of whom these two form a
part, have been the subject of more
than one magazine article during recent
months.
They are perfectly and symmetrically
formed, we'll educated, accomplished
musicians and vocalists. and exceeding
~ clever comedians. They are perfect
human beings in all respects save size
and OF such versatile attainment as to
offer an entertainment of originality
and merit.
Some OF the model little ladies and
gentlemen in this troupe are but TWEEN
ty inches in height. These little people
are possessed Of all the attributes of
averaged size persons. with the added
charms of refinement. education and in
tellectuality. In all these qualities they
are beyond the average man or woman
To convey an idea of their miscrOScop-
ic proportion 1t need only be said that
the best known of all the little people
ever born was General Tom Thumb.
whom p. T. Barnum exhibited fifty
years ago, stood twice as high as two
OF the members Of this troupe, and was
a third taller than some Of the others
And even he was no: nearly as intel
lectual nor as well educated as the
Horvaths.
These latter resemble for all the world
nothing so much as living toys-ani-
mated dolls as il were. for which they
are often mistaken when at rest or
sitting down. which is rarely. however
Tor they are active, spTightly and vi
Nacious, and when not singing, dancing
or acting are having high jinks with the
giant. who is their good friend. They
are an extraordinary group of homeo-
pathic humanity. and one of the most
wonderful sights with the Barnum &
Bailey Greatest Show on Earth
When George Anger, the Welsh giant,
stands beside them there is offered one
OF the strangest and greatest contrasts
IN stature ever seen in the history of
the world. which is OF both scientific
and educational value. For they are
the antithesis Of each other-the ex-
IRENE Of physical humanity The
menagerie tent Of the show offers many

line as well as the line of living human
curiosity. Here are the smallest horse
