SOME MODERN GIANTS.
Some Men and Women Who Have
Been Noted for Great Height.


Marie Fassnauer, Tyrolese woman,
towers to the height of feet.
But Marie, in spite of her many
inches is not the most exalted lady
who ever lived. Just a quarter of a
century ago the world gazed with
craned head and open mouth at tsill
taller giantess, who looked down on
her admirers from height of 5 feet
inches, and who was said to be still
growing" Marion as this remark
able maiden was called, had been born
only sixteen years earlier in village
near the Thurigian Mountains and
the Amazon Princess" was for some
months the greatest attraction In the
spectacle of "Babil and Bijou' at the
Alhambra Theatre character in
which she wore wonderful suit OF
armor and was crowned with tower
ing headdress, the topmost plum Of
which was a good ten feet from the
stage.
Nor was Marion distinguished only
by her great height; for she had a
beautifully proportional figure, a dis
tinctively pretty face an a most ami
able disposition This magnificent
creature had brief tenure of life, fol
she died at Berlin less than two years
later, and before she had seen he

IN 1859 and 1870 Miss Anna H.
Swan the Nova Scotia giantess,
caused considerable sensation. Miss
Swan seemed destined from the cradle
to be woman Of abnormal dimen-
tons; for though her father, Scot
tish immigrant was barely feet s
inches high, and her mother was half
foot shorter still, Miss Anna reached
feet at the age Of eleven, and at If
teen wah the tallest person in Nova
Scotia. For time she was the chief
attraction Of Barnum's great shows
and during this period twice narrowly
escaped death from fire. She had, too,
historonic ability. as was proved when
she appeared as Lady Macbeth in New
York; and before going to England
she made triumphal tour of the
United States.
| In her prime Miss Swan was but
few inches short of feet, and she
found an appropriate husband in
Catp. Martin Bates, the Kentucky
giant, who was actually two inches
taller than herself
Chang, the Chinese giant, wo ended
his days at Bournemouth not many
years ago, was man Of enormous
size standing over feet in his socks,
but he used to declare that he had a
sister at home in China who could
easily look over his head. This re-
markable lady was feet A inches in
height and had hand with span Of
| two feet.
Robert Hales, the Norfolk giant
who caused great sensation in Eng
land about a half century ago, was a
member of very remarkable family
which included some women of extra
ordinary stature. His father, a farmer
was feet inches high. and although
his mother was but paltry feet, Il
is said that she had an ancestor ii
the sixteenth century who stood
inches over feet. OF the children 81
this couple the four sons averaged
feet inches, and five daughters bu
1-2 inches less. Robert, the TALES
member of the family, was littl,
over IL feet high. and measured
sixty-four inches and sixty-two inche!
around the waist and chest, respective
ly; while the tallest of his sisters
who died at twenty, was feet 2 inch
es in height and of proportional
build

especially the good cooking. Why
man alive" went on Fatty in burst
of ecstatic feeling, 1--WE dined in
places all over the United States, from
the Rio Grande to the st. Johns. and
from the Great Lakes to the Gulf, and
l tell you now that there is more
style in some places. but there's no
better cooking nor eating"
Now, see how the world is divid-
ed said Badly. Here are three OF
us and a wide variance of opinions
because we are of different tastes, but
there is one thing that I'll bet the
cigars on and that is that Hattiesburg
is one of the most wonderful little
cities in the country and there is no
boom about it, either. Just think Of
i'll was told today that only few
years ago that, where the Hatel Hat
tiesburg now stand was a splendid
fishing pool and my informant, who is
most respected citizen, told me that
he caught many good string of fish
from that same pond"
Certainly, we all agree on that
point" said Fatty, lighting another
cigar, but speaking about buildings,
was informed today that there are
| not less than two hundred buildings
now in course of erection in this town,
taking in account the homes being
built in the residential districts and
we all see what is going on here in
the business section-why, right with
in stones throw of us a six-story
building, that would be credit to
any city, is fast nearing completion.
The Man from the East spoke, say.
ing, Have you not noticed the splen
didly paved streets-miles and miles
of them all we'll lighted? Well, have
and l also noticed that there is q
system of water works that would
compare favorably with many a larger
and older city-besides, there is 8
sewerage system over a portion of the
city, but the town has grown so fast
that 1T has not been possible to keer
up with the growth" When he had
finished speaking Badly said, Don

Three men sat in front Of their
hotel last night enjoying their post
prandial cigars and as they will be
frequently heard from in this column
they shall be described, on account
of the physical appearances OF three
of them and the home of the other
One shall be henceforth known as
Badly, another as Fatty, and the third
as The Man from the East. So you
may consider yourselves as having
been properly introduced and proceed
to get acquainted-and there you are!
AS usual with strangers, they were
discussing Hattiesburg, its wonderful
growth and development, and things
that struck them as peculiar or strik;
ing about the town.
Said the Man from the East,
"There's one thing that struck me as
Z strange about this remarkable city,
and that is the absence of mulatto
negroes, and if you gentlemen will
take the trouble to look about you to-
morrow you will discover that about
eighty-five per cent of the colored men
and women that you pass on the
streets are black"
Then Badly chided his friend, say
ing, my dear boy-why will you al
ways look upon the dark side-now
with me one of the most charming
things-yes, the most charming thing
that has called for my individual at
tention since | hit this progressive
town has been the loneliness of its
women and the number of them"
We'll" said Fatty, you fellows
have had your say and now I'll tel
you what has attracted me and makes
me wish to live in Hattiesburg, ant
when l get through with this trip,
think Ill send my resignation to thu
house and come and settle down-ant
the thing is this-the good eating ant

A story is being told on the streets
concerning the host Of a certain hotel
and another prominent citizen, one Of
them being staunch vardaman man
and the other as stannch supporter
of Williams. and while they are the
best of friends, they are constantly
discussing the merits Of their choices,
The story says that the hotel man
who is for vardaman, rang his friend
the other day and informing him he
had just made water cooler full Of
the finest lemonade, invited him tc
come and enjoy it. His friend an

1t is trite saying that woman does
not take for granted that she is loved,
she wants to be told so, she wants to
see and be made to feel signs and ac-
tiOns that she is really the object of
affection.
Neither the spirit of love nor the
spirit of respect, neither that of rev.

in short, no thoughts, no ideas, no
emotions, no intellectual life of any

profit intellectually from a knowledge
of this unfolding. which truly touches
