Aggregation “Bloomers” of Along The family in numbers, years, height and weight was the feature of the Pay Streak, at the prize AY yesterday afternoon nt was the family of Henri Jensen, of Tope! Kansas, consisting of Jensen, hie wife, 16 sons and 7 daughters The family traveled in a bunch, that the barkers of the different Pay Streak shows gave up in disgust trying to Induce people to take in their shows as long aa such a show remained outside. Finally barker solved the solution by do nating passes to the family, and the crowd followed While he donated 25 admissions he secured 500 he would not otherwise have had Here Is the Family. The family, by name, follows: Henri, father; Sophia, mother; Joby, William, Ole, Henrt, Jr, Frank, Ernest, Lioyd, James, Peter, Remsen, Arthur, Victor, Charles, Seott, Johneon, Archibald, boys; |Anna, Elizabeth, Mary, Susan, Nelite, Dorothy, Myrtle.

This is leaster than it might seem dh first thought, as the Jensen family, all together, looke more like a Sun- day school or a church member ship out for a good time than one family.
