his shoulders, but after that it seemed
an easy matter to get them at full
stretch above his head. Three times in
succession the Italian raised the two
massive pieces of iron, and then with
out any rest whatever he put the bells
up four alternate times, beginning with
the right hand, and lifting the bell to
arms stretch above the head, and then
lowering the bell to the shoulder, then
repeating the operation with the left
hand, following with the right-handed
elevation, and ending with the left
handed push. Everything done 30 far
was in the cleanest and most workman
| like fashion. :"
"The second feat was in lifting the 1S9-
pound bar with one hand, and in this
performance Romulus made departure
from the usual style of lifting. The bar,
which looked as though it might have
done duty as the axle of a railroad
wagon or the crank of an engine, was
placed on piece of board in an up
right position, which brought the CEN
ter of the bar almost on level with the
athletes shoulder, then, crouching
down until he almost sat on the floor,
this allowed the bar to drop backward
until the center of it almost rested on
the shoulder, but it did not touch any
part of Romulus's person other than his
hand. Then making rest for his elbow
on his thigh, he held the weight bal
anced until he was steady after that he
rose up and held the bar aloft. The feat
was wonderful one, and new to dumb
bell lifters. It is neither push, press
nor jerk, and although one-handed
lift. cannot compare with Louis Cyr's
record of 243 pounds, made with one
hand from the floor to arms stretch
above the head; nor the 251 pounds put
up by Eugene Sandow from the shout
der to arms stretch above the head.
The next feat was performed with q
bar weighing 1853 pounds. This was
made up from the 189 pound bar, the
two plates weighing twenty one pounds
having been removed. Taking this bar
in his left hand, Romulus crouched
down again and brought the bar over his
shoulder-not on to it. He rested his
elbow on his thigh and made two futile
attempts to raise the weights. At the
third attempt the piece of iron rose
slowly in the air, and the italian stood
upright with it. making a new record
for q one-handed lift by an amateur"
1.-The fourth feat was also new one for
amateurs to practice on. Romulus took
in his right hand dtmb-bell weighing
100 pounds, and in his left he held q
bell weighing SO pounds. These he
lifted to the shoulders, and then slowly
raised them 10 half-arm's stretch, and
gradually dropped until the arms made
sort of crooked acute angle with his
body. He held the weights for mo-
ment, and then dropped them. 1t was
not right angle-or neutrality-suspicious.
ance, and 30 it is hard to compare with
anything that has been done before.
The best crucific act is that of Eugene
Sandow when he held 7O.pound bell
in his right hand and a 56,pound bell in
his left. The best right angle act is
that of Louis Cyr, when he held out 1O4
pounds in his right hand. ;"

A Sicilian Astonishes London With His
Wonderful Lifting.
The London (England) Sporting Life
OF February 9th says:
''If the amateur standard is to be used
in judging the feats of Romulus made at
the Athletic institute, Kinnsrton street,
w., on Saturday night, then the little
Italian accomplished some wonderful
feats, but many of them will not bear
comparison with those made by Louis
Cyr or Eugene Sandow. 1t is claimed
for Romulus that he is strictly an anna
teur, so that what he did at the Athletic
institute will wipe out good many tig-
ures that have been made by the non
professional element. The inn
Elements were weighed in the presence
of Professor Atkinson, w. Bush, Herr
Condol and Ed Plummer representing
the Sporting Life), and this quartette
were the judges of the different feats.
Private marks were put on the bells and
bars, 80 that no ringing could be in
BY this time Romulus was
ready for his trials. He came on the
stage wearing pair of dark trousers,
which were supported by wide leather
belt. He also wore salmon-colOred
Jersey, so that none Of his muscular de-
velopment could be seen. For the in
formation OF those who have never seen
this athlete en- deshabille, the following
are Romulus q measurements He stands
5 feet 2 inches, weighs 172 pounds, and
measures As inches round his chest. His
biceps are IL inches, and the forearm is
151s inches. The thigh is rs inches, and
the calf II inches. Romulus is native
of Sicily, and he was born in 1872, 80
that he is not yet 20 years of age. 1t is
understood, that his family name was
Zaffarana, his brother, Remus, some
IS. The first feat shown was the
taking OF dumb-bell, weighing l22
pounds, in the right hand, and l29
pounds in the left hand. Romulus had
a hard struggle to raise these weights to

a considerable number OF citizens, including
among others Rev. Drs Dickinson, Cooper,
Landrum, Hatcher, Whitfield, and Nelson.
His subject was " The Genuineness and Anthem
tcity OF the New Testament Scriptures" Tho
argument covered the ground OF the quotations
by the apostolic fathers and their relations TO
the Apostles, especially to John. The very In
teresting and valuable recent discovery Of the
two translations OF the long-lost and much
disputed harmony OF the Gospels By Tetian
was referred TO as adding unexpected evidence
In favor OF the genuincness OF the Gospels.
Their authenticity or trustworthiness was
forcibly argued from internal evidence. The
lectures occur daily at 12 O'Clock. To-day the
subject win DO Miracles, Especially the Resur-
rection."
