A Town of Giants.

Benton (Mont.) Record. There is a movement on foot to estab lish a town somewhere in the neighborhood of the month of the Judith to be called Giantsville. The program is to secure 320 acres of land, to divide the same into town-lots and streets, establish laws and regulations allowing only “six-foot-ers” to obtain possession of any of the lots, and allowing no female thereon below the standard of five feet eight By this means it is proposed to establish, in due course of time, a race of giants. All the saloons in Peoria must be closed at 12 o’clock after this, by order of the mayor. •
