Deformed Hnsfianfls and Wives--Millie Christine's Infatnations. Mercenary People Who Seek Their Mates Among the Monstrosities of the Bide Museums, Shows and Chlcago News. W. C. Coup, the veteran showman and manager, sat in the office of the Chicago museum yesterday, toying with his gold eye-glass, and humming the notes of & song he did not know. Then he picked up & copy of The Daily News and read an account of the marriage of Jennie Saunders, the twenty-toed woman Louis 8t. Clair, late advance agent of the Buffalo Bill Wild West combination. ““Theso marriages of freaks always disgust me,” ho said, throwing the paper down. “I've seon a number of thom in my time, I sece that a bill has just been in- troduced in the Massachusetts legislature which prohibita the public exhibition of monsatrositiee; it is to be hoped it will be- come alaw. 1 do not believe in plac- ing anything before the public except that which tends to educate and elevate, and that which affords genuine amuse- ment, You would like to hear about somo of the marriages of monstrosi- ties. Well, let me see what I can remem- or: “In the words of the gong in the comic opera, ‘years ago’ when John O'Brien, the well-known circus man, was in the high- tide of prosperity, among the attractions in the rotinue of side-shows following his tont there was a freak known as Walter Stewart. This human moustrosity was without legs or hands, but he had short, stubby arms, and it was considered an interesting sight to see him shave himself by the use of these half-formed limbs. Although repulsive in other respects, it is said that Stewart possessed average intelligence, One season O'Brien was accompanied on his tour by a charming and beautiful young daughter. Kitty was her name, and she was the idol of her name, and she was the idol of her amuse- ment-loving parent. He was worth at least $240,000 at that time, and he lavished every attention upon his beloved child. Kitty had her own will in almost everything. She got acquainted with the side-show monstrosity, Walter Stewart, and day after day went surreptitiously to converse with him. At length, before the father had the slightest inkling of the course affairs had taken, his daughter had become strangely infatuated with and secretly married the deformed creature. O'Brien, in his anger, cast her completely off, and never spoke to either of the two afterward. But Kitty clung stoutly to her choice, ministering to his wants, accompanying him in shows and mu- seums, and to all appearances loving him, “‘Perhaps you remember John Ba tershy, the skeleton man. Not Well, John was long a great card for side-showa and museums, and, by the way, I think he is still living. 1# 18 wounderful how long these skeletens do live. Battersby was married some twenty yea 0 to ‘Hannah,’ tve fat woman of Maine, after which they always made engagements and treveled together, Hannah was the ost fat woman I ever saw, too. She yeighed upward of 500, and there was over 400 pounds difference between the ‘(M of husband and wife. The union, A Bplieve, was blessed with several chil- 1. Bpeaking of skeletons, there's “ac W. Sprague, the 40-pound specimen V110 bas been seen here lately. Sprague bas been married twice, though it doesn’t possible that such a creature of F oould survive two such ordeals. his firsst marriage several children "#re born, but for some cause the mother ¢t him, Then he sought and found an- i consort in the person of his present, an'ou~—a woman who will tip the ]bml ¢ 250 at the very least. Sprague l nekes of $100 a week, and no ‘had her heart set as much on the skeleton. She had got besond the bounds of freakish youth, beyond the idel notiona of a husband that irls ueanlly enteria:: at 16. She now lives at ea®s nd dressos well. What morg ¢ould 8 woinsi ask! A zod story is told of Sprazme, wlen on o hibition in New York some time 1o und his wife were ovcupying appartients near the museum, One merniaghe wal carried to the manager i.: a state o!‘Kut excite- ment, have been ro'hod!” he scrégmed. ¢“ ‘How!" said the b N “'*Why, some time m nighi my wife was awakened by cold, ‘and window must be hoisted, asshe was almol freezing, and she hugged up close to WAI:”T‘, warm - A ‘To you? intorrupted the manager; ‘close to you—a pnck‘:;f bones!" o ‘4 ‘Yo, that’s what I said. Sure enough I found the window had been left open by burglars and they had stolen my mo- ney from under my pillow.’ “William Thompson, a steamsdip en- gineer, became intat ated with Ann B Leak, a weman without arms, and mar- ried her some ten years ago. They sub- sequently went to Australia together, and, I am told, made a good deal of money, She has been seen with all the big show, this country time and again They have a very fine boy, and, although the mother has no arms for hugging, she n crochet, knit, sew, and write with er toes as well as most ladies can with their hands. And then there was Mme. Myers, the bearded lady—you have seen her? She became the wife of Amos Myers of Otsego, N. Y., seven or eight years ago, they have traveled all the shows since at different times He seems aa careful and proud of her as of a babe, g “Do you know it is astonishing how women get ‘stuck’ on athletes and circus riders? Yes, and I might add, on prize- fighters and male opera singers. Poople used to tell me in the old museum there in New York that there was no attractior, 80 fascinating to women as snakes, and t ten women for every man would stand and gaze for hours at the reptiles. I suppose it is because the snake has been #o long associated with man's histo- ry. But toreturn to the subject of women being charmed by athletes, I'll give one againet the men.

S1. Aveusting, Fla.,, March 28, —Mr, Thomas A. Edison, the great inventor, is at present enjoying a vacation in Florida, He is accompanied by Mrs. Edison, a superb blonde, who has but lately recov- ered from severe illness, but who is now thoroughly restored. The pair have been enjoying themselves in the jolliest man- ner imaginable, Those who had looked to find in the inventor a sort of Dr. Faustus—all wrinkles and solomnity— have been agreeably disappointed. "Of course, when Mr. Edison gets a sympa- thetic listener he is not unlikely to fasten the grapplers of his keen incellect on electric and mechanical problems, but you oannot atir his pride at this moment with such matters. To tickle his vanity you must ask himifhe ever goes fishing, Then you will hear how he caught the great St. Augustine *‘demon shark.” For years past one particular shark of enormous eize has defied the fishermen of St. Augustine, eaten up their bait and frequently their cateh. It was even rumored that he had consumed several Jittle negro children and one tough, old rum-soaked sailor. For several days after the latter feat the shark was said to have acted in the most drunk and dis- orderly manner. These stories, told on the pinzza of the Magnolia hotel, fired Mr. Edison. “I'll fix him,” said Mr. Edison quiet- < For a couple of days little was seen of the electrician. He paid repeated visits to the home of a local scientist on Bay street. Then he hired the yacht Mngnolm for a fishing excursion. At 10 o'clock in the morning the party he had invited, led by Mrs. Edison, and otherwise consisting of Mr., and Mrs. Henry O. Reimer, of Newark. N. J., and ex-Mayor Lang, were handed on Loard by Captain Whitney. At 10:16 a. m, Mr. Edison came along with a swinging gasit. A colored boy, carrying what proved to be the most extraordinary fishing-tackle ever seen, was at his heels. Mr. Reimer thought the basket contained champagne, and praised Mr. Edison's thoughtfulness. He laughed, but said nothing, and sat on the 1id of the box. The yacht ran down to the fishing ground off the light-house, whose curious spiral coloring suggested jokes about a corkscrew to Mr. Rasimer. Lines for bass were thrown out amid the usual hopes and jests, and Mrs. Edison with a little shriek of surprise and pleas- ure promptly hauled out a good-sized bass. Blackfish and bass were caught for some time by all the party except Mr. Edison; then there was a stop. ptain Whitney scratched his head and said: 1t Yl'mut be that dog-gone demon shark ain. “‘What's that?” said Mr. Edison, with his hand to his ear. “‘Demon shark eatin’ the fish,” said the captain, **Edison jumped up. His moment had come. Opening the basket, he began hauling out a long gutta-percha line—a regular insulated telegrapk wire. There was no hook visible, but it was evidently imbedded in & huge chunk of something red that looked like meat, yet was not. A powerful electric battery remained in the basket, ““What's that!” said the captain. “*You wait and see.” Oyerboard went bait and line and Edi- son lit a cigar. In a minute the line or wire gave a jerk that a most knocked the inventor over. “Lot him yun; it's the ‘demon, the captain, “‘You let him run,” said Edison,‘‘while 1 turn this handle.” The captain grabbed the line, and the inventor worked like an organ-grinder at the electric crank. Never was seen such a rumpus in the water. Thoe greap shark came to the sur- face andijurrped clean out of the water; water;then he wriggled, curled, switched, El.unpd, tumbled, jerked and snapped. o could not tell what was the matter ith him. He was the most astonished inve the world began. *Is he gotting the current?” said the in calmly. b " it!” yelled the captain, ‘‘he’s gottin' h—1. Gosh! he's nearly pulled my arms out.” . The inventor smiled and kept turning. A new idea occurred to the shark: he would ‘‘¢ound.” Down he went and *he captain let him run. In a minute he rose and the captain began hauling in. Al at once the latter began to emit the most fiendish yells, while he dancad and cavorted like a fiend. **Is he getting the current!” said the calm inventor. “H—1! ——I'm gettin’ it, Lot up! Let up? For God'ssake!” shriek- ed the captain, 'Move your hands an inch; guess you've scraped off syme insulator,” said Edison, with the interested air of a sur- n at & clinic. In fifteen minutes the shark came to the surface, aud saying with his rolling eyes as well as a sbark can' ssy it: *I knock under,"—turned over and died. He was too big to haul aboard, so the demon shark was towed to the dock. There was great excitement in the town, The monster, fifteen feet in length and weighing 700 pounds, was taken to De.
