Brady, Ltd. "Buby Mine" has a record of eight weeks at the Majss tic Theatre, Boston ; one solid year at Daly's Theatre, New York; ?nd has already reached its second year in London, at the Criterion theatre. "Baby Mine" is said to be the fun niest play ever written. From the very first night there was never any doubt of its Huccess. Laughter, which, at first is ?aid to be sporadic and intermittent, grows and grows till no one attempts to hold out against it,, and the theatre is said to fairly quake over "Baby Mine.". The convulsions are said to be at their loudest, some little time be fore the finish of the comedy, but they endure till long after the cur tain is down. That is the general verdict of "Baby Mine." . Is there need to say .much more about it? "Baby Mine" is a comedy that you will enjoy without feeling afterwards that you were a fool. It Is gor geously ridiculous.

Their mind were clear and active. "Gen."; Tom~Thumb spent much Qtibi?-li?e_in_South Carolina. His real name_was Charles SJierwood Stratton,. and lie was closely relat ed to Mrs. Stratton of Columbia, at one time a celebrated verse writer. The family of Dr. L. K. Phllpot/ of Columbia, Is also closely related to the late (Jon. Tom Thumb. In 18 52 Phineas T. Barnum .engaged Chas. H. Stratton for a tour of the world and dubbed him "Gen. Tom Thumb. He was not 2 feet in height and then weighed less than 12 pounds. Gen.* Tom Thumb died in 1885 at the age of 45. Mis widow is now 71 ytars old. The mortality of mid gets, however, Is marked, and they ra ?ly live to be over 35.
