the largest man that ever lived was born

Tar Heel at the Hoffman House the other
night. His existence and dimensions are
vouched for in the American Encyclo-
pedia, says the New York Press.
"His name was Miles Darden. He was
seven feet six inches high, and in 1915
weighed ST pounds. He was born in
North Carolina in 179S and died in Ten

IN a two-horse wagon. In 1899 Il is chron-
icled that his coat was buttoned around
three men, each weighing more than 200
pounds. who walked together in IL down
the streets of Lexington. \. g. Al his
death he is said TO have weighed not less
than 1000 pounds His coffin was feet

HIS HEART IN HIS STOMACH.
Kentucky MOuntRineeF's Discreet
Vital Organs.

From the Louisville CouierIournsL
The Kentucky mOuntaineer is a bipad
who has been considerably shot al for a
century or more. For this reason the
case Of Galloway Sebastian. OF Wolf
County. who has been released from a
Lexington hospital. is Of exceptional in
terest to students Of the theory of evo-
luton.
In a Lee City joint debate upon the re-
lative virtues of the two great political
parties, Mr.. Sebastian was shot through
the breast. X-rays showed the ball lodged
in the wounded mans lung after passing
through his chest In such a direction that
the heart would have been pierced if it
had been in the right place
1t seems that Mr.. Sebastian's heart is
located near his stomach, or went into
hiding there when the gestures of the
debaters indicated that in so far as the
more vital organs were concerned discre-
ton had become the better part Of valor.
In the absence of a detailed report from
the attending surgeons, il is not clear
whether Mr. Galloway Sebastian's heart
has resumed its normal position under
his short ribs or is still nesting some
y.
It is impossible even to speculate upon
whether Mr. Sebastian is lowered with

Why Turbines Shake

Passengers of the new turbine steamers
often express disappointment and sur
prise to find that the vibration experi-
enced on ocean-going vessels has not
been entirely eliminated. As a matter
OF fact, the vibration, so far as il re-
lates TO the engines. has been suppressed
and the conditions greatly improved. but
there is certain amount of vibration re-
sulting from the passage of the propeIlers
through the wafer and this never will be
overcome 50 long as propellers are used.
