A Large Patient.

Probably one of the largest patients ever admitted to Bellevue hospital applied to Register Gleeson for»treatment on Sunday morning. He was Harry L. Durrey, 30 years old, a fireman on the tugboat Glen Island. Cjurrey is 6 feet 7 inches high, and, according to Mr. Gleeson, would find difficulty in getting a pair of ready-made sleeves or gloves in the city that would be large enough for him. Another peculiarity about the big fireman is that he has six toes on each foot, the little toe being divided into two distinct parts.—Philadelphia Ledger.
