inches long. The fee’ are c.-’.ly
partially developed, and are turned
backward: -.nd downward;;, compell

The upper portion of Mr. Sloan’s
body is perfectly developed, with the
exception of his f rgets, whkh have
only o?e jo’ it each.
He is the son of W. H. Slo .u, a
farmer near Marengo, and in the
oldest of eight children. Three of
these children were deformed in ex
actly the same way. Bed des

for the work.
Luther was brought te this city at
the instance of Dr. J. T. Weathers,
who is a personal friend to Mr. Sloan,
and Prof. Larrabee, who is now lac
turing to his classes on the subject of
“Freaks of Nature.” Mr. Sloan will
be introduced to the great showman,
Barnum, to-day, with the hope oi
getting an engagement
Mr. Sloan has grown a heavy mus
tache, and is a bright-looking young
man. He ic well read, and last year
graduated at the Marengo High
Schoch In the winter time be is a
great trapper and hunter. He shoots
on horse beck generally and says that

rid of small c niches, -.nt be ,‘j able
to get along without their aid. He
usually wears a sort of short waist
dress and moccasins of his own make.
The students find him ~m entertaining
as well as interesting piece of hu
manity.

About this time we moved from

ulcer, now about three inches in
length, two inche in width, seeming
to be down to the bone, and discharg

dicturbed, e.ad I sometimes thought
I would lose my reason.
A friend c.'l'ed on me one day, Mr.

In a short time I got my son to get
