count primo MAORI FAMOUS MIDGET, DIES; TRAVELED IN CIRCUSES

MIDDLEBORO. Mass., Nov. 3. Count Prlmo Magri, the midget who became famous in two continents traveling In circuses and vaudeville as "Tom Thumb." died here last night. He was 71 years old. Count Magri, who was given his title and a pension by Tope Piua XI, made his first appearance in a theatre at Hologna, Italy, his birthplace, in 1865. Subsequently he played before nearly every crowned head in Europe. He made his first American trip in 1878, and under contract with P. T. Barnum, traveled with Mr. and Mrs. Tom Thumb. Soon after the death of the first Tom Thumb he married Mrs. Thumb in 18S3, and the two toured this country and Europe until about five years ago, when they came here to liv.e Mrs. Thumb died two years ago. At the time of his death. Count Magri was 37 inches tall and weighed only 50 pounds. Two weeks ago he auctioned off the personal effects of his wife and her first husband, obtaining enough money to return to Bologna, where he had planned, to end his days.

The death of Count Magri closes a areer which took him into virtually all parts of the civilized world. Marrying Mrs. Tom Thumb, Count Magri had been a prominent figure on the

stage of both Europe and America for

many years. Although Count Magri Is known to have earned thousands of dollars

while appearing before the public, he was almost penniless at the time of his death. Two weeks ago word came

from Middleboro, Mass., that he was holding an auction of the personal effects of his late wife and her first husband, in an effort to obtain sufficient money to. take him back to Italy. The articles brought small sums, and after three days only $300 had been realized from the sale.

CENSUS DIRECTOR INSISTS BOSTON FIGURES ARE O. K.

serted that the population of Boston was 801,679 instead of 747,923. as announced by the bureau. Declaring that Mayor Peters "had drawn certain wrong inferences and had made certain miscaluculations," Director Rogers said that after a careful consideration of all available data, the census bureau was of the opinion that the enumeration of Boston was substantially correct. The police canvass which was cited by Mayor Peters to bear out hfs claim of incorrect enumeration was said by Director Rogers to have been incomplete in that the federal census showed more men of 20 years of age and over than the police registered. Director Rogers also asserted that federal census takers had found that persons who were not entitled to enumeration at the given addresses had nevertheless been listed for voting purposes.

He was impatient to be on with the picture and ciidn't see why Miss Gish should take so long in her dressing room. "Not ready, Miss Gish?" he called. "Haven't you fixed your hair yet?" "Fix it?" came the calm voice of the .'tar from her dressing room.
