Tall Man Wants a Job.

The “tallest man alive,” Col. A. A. Powell, once of Texas, but for many years of Barnum’s circus and the world, is looking for a job as floorwalker in a store in St .Louis, Mo. He is 34 years old and stands 7 feet 7% inches in his stockings. He says the show business was tiring and didn’t pay, all things considered.
