_ Little People With and jumped to his death. . - Big Heartaches . Those merry midgets of the Circus sideshows get much fun out of life, and sometimes drama and tragedy. It is tions of the abnormal love and. marriage bring tragedy to some midget lives. Franz. Ebert .and Fritz Zink toured the world in a comedy act. In" a New York® show they - met eli-like Elsie Law, as petite ag a five-year-old, and became rivals for her hand. Neither would allow the other to -be alone with her. - From close friends they became jealous cuemies, "We'll tight for. her," said Ebert at last. "The loser leaves" the ficld to the winner." Stripped = to the waist, they fought in an alley by moonlight-- kicked, butted, wrestled to u stand- still, with the scared Elsie look= ing on, until at last Ebert went down - with a K.O; from Zink's right. Did she rush forward to embrace the victor Not at all When Zink stumbled towards her, arms outstretched, she struck at 'his bleeding mouth, knocking him down. Then, sobbing, she flung herself by the unconscious Ebert, smothered him with kisses, pil lowed his head in her lap. A few days later they were married Zink as best manl a "Don" Alvaro, Argentinian- mid- get, married a French one as dainty and exquisite as a Dresden china figure. Soon every midget man in the colony: was captivated by her, every midget wifedjealous of her. Malicious stories were told Alvaro of her "goings on." One night, when she had eluded him after the show, he waited morosely in their hotel rooin, burning with suspicion and jealousy. She returned just' before dawn, flushed with. drink. He asked, "Where have you been?" She laughed mockingiy He knocked her down, kicked her. Her screams brought people running along the corridor. again, calling her a bitter name, he ~ stfode to. the window, -opened it, complica- that drama often Elmer with farce. But turns to Spangier, midgets Four foot conducting the Midget Village band at the Chicago World's Fair, fell in love with Irish-Mexican fan-dancer Rosalie, who wouldn't take him seriously. One night, during her periorman- ance, a pistol shot sounded. Rosalie, the musicians -and guests made a dive for the doors, thinking gun- men were on the job: Police found Elmer sitting dejectedly at a table, a smoking pistol in his hand. In court next day he was lifted on to a table so that all could see him, "Did you try to kill this young lady!" asked the judge. "Oh, gosh, no!" said Elmer. "I just wanted to make her notice me, I thought, maybe, if I did some- thing--out of the ordinary, some- thing startling--she'd pay -atten- tion to me." "Guilty," said the judge, langhing. "Five dollars' fine. And confiscate that gun." Later, Rosalie told reporters. "I told him if he did that again I'd give him a good spanking)" Raymond and" Elsie Schultz, Long Island midgets, had two daughters. Schultz feturned from several weeks' tour to find that his wife had left them in charge of a new maid, who had just put them. to bed. "I didn't know," she said, when he let himself in, "that "Mrs. Schultz had a little boy." She promptly ordered him to bed, push-_ ing him into the nursery before he could protest! No onc has shown deeper under- . standing of the problems of mid- gets than the Americans Walter Bodin and Brunet Hershey, who estimated in "The World Of Mid- _ gets" that only about one in five marry, though they have tiie nor- mal longings for love, marriage, home and children. Of these, just over half marry fellow-midgets, the rest, ordinary people. Despite their handicaps, midgets - have achieved fame as artigts, scholars, actors, courtiers, kings' counsellors, statesmen, and ecclesi- . astics. The only midget knight was Sir Jeffrey Hudson, Captain of Horse, 3 ft. 9 in. booted and spur- red. At eight he was so small that the Dukq of Buckingham, his pat- ron, - presented him to Charles | and his Queen in a pie. Sent 'to, Krance-on da mission for the Queen, he was captured on / ---- thé return journey first by Flémish, then. by Turkish, pirates, and sold into slavery in Barbary, zventually escaping after severe ordeals, Later, in camp near Calais, he thought he had been insulted by the brother of Lord Crofts, and shot him dead in a duel. At, sixty-one he was jailed for implication in the Titua Oates plot, and two years latet died. = 'Although midgets usually drift into {he show business, many have excelled as watchmakers, gold and sjewel workers, and at other crafts which suit their ninible fingers. In the U.S.A. they have been sales- --men, _arcliitects, violinists, and played a vital part in war indus- tries.
