BABY IN VICE-PRESIDENT'S CHAIR ABE AND 0SCAR—FLORIDA'S SHORTEST AND LONGES! Several days ago “General” Abe Sawyer of Key West, the smallest man in the State, met Oscar Stucky. the State’s largest and most perfect- ly developed man, on the streets of Jacksonville, who is enly 22 years old, lacks an inch or two of being seven feet tall. “Well, I reckon you’'ve sorter got it on me,” squeaked Abe, squinting “north” in the direction of Stucky’s knees. “Suppose I have, kiddie; just walk between my knees, with your hat on, and think you're going.through the grand canyon,” invited Stucky. *Abe accépted the invitation and passed through. Then lifting his hat and making a low bow, he sald: “Thanks, you human skyscraper; how much will you charge me for a room in the twelfth story?” Oscar Stucky, who is a son of A. P. Stucky, is the largest well pro- portioned man Florida ever pro- duced, and he s dwubtless the best heavyweight boxer in the south, being alert mentally as well as pow- erful physically. One of his great- est ambitions is to meet ‘‘Mistah” Jack Johson in a dark alley, where nobody can witness the contest, and smash the heavyweight champ on |. his “bean.” Men who have had Stucky’s physical training in charge declare that he is one of the few white men living who could, after a year or two of expert instruction, take the .negro’s measure.—Frank Huffaker in Tampa Times. 3 For the first time in history, the presiding officer of the AUnited States senate the other day shared his seat with another person. T}xat person was : Master Thomas Marshall Sutherland, three and a half years old, son o't Rev. A. D. Sutherland of Berkley Springs, Va,, who was once Mr. Marshall’s pas- tor at Columbia City, Ind.
