In St. Nicholas Mai-y Shears Roberts recounts the successes of tho famous dwarf Tom Thumb. There have been smaller dwarfs, but none brighter or more intelligent than our tiny Yankee, who was never more than three feet l tall. lie was born In Bridgeport, Conn., In 1832 or thereabouts, of "poor but honest parents."', His real name was Charles S." Btratton, and although his relatives always called him Charley ho was known to the world at large as the one and only "General Tom. Thumb." Under the management of Mr. P. T. Barnum oar small, hero traveled all over and all around the earth, making two colossal fortunes, one for himself and one for his manager. ; On Jan. 18, 1844, he set sail for. Europe to try his fascinations on kings and queens and princes. . - -. t i -T In those days ft voyage across the Atlantic was a much more important event than it Is now. and you may rest assured that Mr. Barnum made great capital of this 10 days' Journey. The party consisted of: the manager, the "General," bis parents, his. tutor and a French naturalist, and a brass band escorted tbem to-Bandy Hookr-i This 't act war duly heralded In .the Iondon newspapers, to which was add ed the statement that "on leav-tag New Yorkthe dwarf was escorted to the packet by no less than 10,000 persons." Soon after arriving In London Mr. Barnum and bis charge called at . the office of The. Illustrated London News. The first portrait of Tom Thumb taken in England Appear In- that Journal, dated Feb. 24, 1844,There re two cuts. - In the first he It seen -Standing on a chair-by a tabic; which serves to emphasize bis diminutive size. The second picture is very good and is call ed "The American Dwarf at tho Prln, cess Theater.". ' He; Is 'represented as being on the stage before the footlights parodying the . walk and manners-of Napoleon. Tom-Thumb' performances at tho Princess theater made such a "hit" that Mr. Barnum next engaged Egyptian halL. .Piccadilly, - whither thronged many visitors of rank, and fashion, ' ' - . ' The American minister, the Hon. Ed ward Everetv wasvery kind to bis conntrymeru and It tvas at bis bonse that Mr. Barnum-met a certain Mr; Murray; master of the queen's bonsfc hold. Oa the day following one of the Queen's; Life guards appeared before Mr. Barnum with a note containing an Invitation from .the queen to General Tom. -Thumb and his guardian. Mr. Barnum, . to ' appear at Buckingham Lpalace on a speclScd evening. r . ;. Ia retiring from the royal presence Mr. Barnum attempted to follow the example set by the lord In waiting by backing out .'The gallery was of groat stride tnado rapid progress, but Tom Thumb's short legs left him far behind -or before. . Seeing that be waa losing ground, be turned and ran a few; stops. then resumed the process of "backing: Again losing ground,, he repeated .the performance, to the treat amusement of tho -royal : spectator. ".Tha queen soon sent, another summons, and. the "OenornL' with his guardian," made a second visit to' the- palace,: belug "re. celved 10 tbe'yellow drawing room. Jl third Visit was soon, pafd to Buckingham-palace, and this time the queen' uncle, Leopold, king, of 4be Belgians, was present end was greatly amused, asking many question, ' and ..Queen Victoria, desiring the "General" to sing, inquired what song . he-preferred.
