Show Man with m Goose's Bead. The man with a goose's head first appeared ap-peared before the publio at the famous . "Gingerbread Fair" at Liverpool in 1873. He was 20 years of age at that time, had eyes perfectly round and a nose eight inches in length, flat, and shaped exactly like the bill of a goose. His neck was three times the length of that of an ordinary or-dinary person, surmounted by a round fiat head, without a single hair. He seemed to have as much common sense as the average country boy of his age, learning very fast and soon quit the show business and studied the photographer's photog-rapher's art. His name is Jean Ron-dier, Ron-dier, and he now lives at Dijon, France. St. Louis Republic. |
