The .shoes are l<? inches long and slightly more than *ix inches wide, weighing close to ten pounds. They were made during the World war for Thomas Williams, a North Carolina negro, who had never worn a pair of shoes in his life, according to Captain Arthur Fridge of Jackson, commander of the corps in which Williams served, and who made the presentation. The pair of enormous shoes, of the army hob-nail type, were made for the negro, but they hurt his feet and were so heavy that he was unable to wear them, it is jaid. Ho served in the army in nonregulation * uniform, consequently, with his feet wrapped in sacks in :old weather. Williams, according to the information given to Dr. Dunbar Rowland, director of the department, is six feet four inches in height and weighs 210 pounds. Army officials :ould find no reason for turning .him Jown in the service, as he was a perfect specimen of physical manlood. He told army officials, it was said, that he always wrapped his feet in sacks during cojd weather and isked to be allowed ,.4'o serve in the jrmy under those conditions. The negro served in France in Captain Fridge's corps, the 323rd service sattallion, Q. M. C., at Cassey les Forges, Cote d'or, France. His record in the army is said to have been unusually good. Capt. Fridge related the history of the shoes to Dr. Rowland several months ago, and the director expressed a wish that they might be obtained. The unused pair was obtained by Captain Fridge and forwarded to the department. "Boss, dese shoes is jest naturally too heavy and dey hurts my feet," Williams told the officers, according to the story. "If you jest lets me wrap my feet in my sacks, I'll get along fine." Porters in the state house were amazed when Dr. Rowland called a conference and offered ther shoes to any one who could wear them. There <was no one who , Cgfred enough to try them on. "What size are they?" one porter asked the director. '"They are measured by the square feet and not sizes," Dr. Rowland laughingly re?plied. "They are so much bigger than any shoes ever put ion the market that it is impossible to approximate the size." The shoes have aroused considerable interest in the capitol. freeze Fish; Then Ship Them Chicago, June 7.?The possibility of transporting Alaskan blackfish to Chicago by freezing them to solid blocks of ice, and bringing them back to life by a thawing process is being investigated by Walter H. Chute, associate director of the $2,000,000 Shedd Aquarium to be erected here. Early investigation has determined that the fish, principal food of natives of northern Alaska, have unusual vitality and are as lively as ever when thawed out, after weeks in their icy prisons. Cases have been reported, Mr. Chute said, where fish have been revived after being swallowed whole by Eskimo dogs. In these instances the fish were thawed out by the animal heat of the stomach, their movement causing the dogs to eject them live. . . i It Still Showed The young lady had asked the guide every possible and impossible question. Suddenly,. she saw one of those paths of smooth unbroken water which are occasionally seen on small lakes when a light breeze is blowing, "Guide, guide," she- said pointing excitedly to it. "What is that? Look, that fanny streak in the water." "Ah," said the guide, "that's where the road went across the ice last winter." SESQUI-CENTENNIAL INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION PHILADELPHIA, PA.
