LOUIS CYR.
Strongest rIan Who Ever Lived, Now
With the Robinson Shows.


Louis Cyr, the Canadian strong
man, is not only the strongest human
being in the world today, but heis UNI
doubtedly the most powerful man OF
which history has preserved any rec
ord. There have been many strong
men, and many men of remarkable
physical development, but in almost
every instance the development of one
set of muscles has been accomplished
at the expense of some other part of
the body. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that Louis Cyr is a composite of
all the greatest strong mon of history.
Every attribute contributing to mus
cular power he possesses in perfec-
ton. He is an Apollo in figure, as
we'll as a Hercules in strength, and it
is doubtful whether the world has
ever produced or will ever produce
again, so perfect a physical man. Mr..
Cyr's height is 5 feet, lOa inches: his
weight is 285 pounds; his shoulder
measurement is 273 inches; neck %
inches; waist 50 inches; biceps zig
inches; forearm 10 inches, and thigh
242 inches, No student of anatomy
need be told that these are remarka-
BILE measurements. The breadth of
the shoulders-twice that of an or
binary mans alone sufficient to
evoke wonder and admiration. But
Mr.. Cyr is not only remarkable
muscular man, he a man of startling
strength and lifting power as we'll.
The New York Clipper Annual and
other authorities unhesitstinglY give
him the palm as the record breaker of
the world. Think of a man who can
lift 555a pounds with one little finger;
think of man who can lift 987 pounds
with one arm; think of an athlete
who can raise 4, 300 pounds-over two
tons-on his shoulders. Such figures
seem Incredible; and yet Mr., Cyr has
and does accomplish these astound
ing feats. Tasks that compel other
men to exert their utmost strength is
play for this herculean athlete, and he |
lifts an elephant as readily as most
strong men handle dumb-bell. A
forfeit of $4,000 is offered for his
equal anywhere on earth. Among the
many remarkable feats which Mr..
Cyr will perform during his visit to
his city with John Robinson's Great
est of all American Shows, at Morris,
Friday July 8, is the balancing of 25
Full-grown men upon platform, sups
ported upon his massive shoulders.
Such feat seems to be so far beyond
The possibility of human accomplish
nent that it is difficult to believe I'M
Ill it has been seen; and once seen it |
will be remembered for a lifetime as
he most amazing exhibition of
strength ever accomplished by an
.thlete either in this or any other age.
Mr.. Cyr is assisted in his heroic per-
'ormsnce by Horace Barre,the French
Sampson, whose fests of strength
lave given him international fame.
hundred other high class acts, a
uperb mensgerie, real Roman hip
,odrome, and scores of special fea-
ures give the John Robinson Show
N easy superiority over all competi-
ors.

 FRIEND REpPY: You with your read CTS. are doubtless waiting and watch ing to learn what has become of the poor little waif of $2o,Oo0, since it was so mercilessly thrust out by the Senate committee.
 It amuses and proyokes me to learn how little some of our Senators know of the need, the feasibility and the grand results that will follow the con struction of the Butte dam. One of them thinks that wells-an pumps will furnish all the water that the Indians need to irrigate their lands! He is as slippery as an eel. I have tried five times to catch him, bat will sand my fingers next time and hold him long enough to enlighten him and let him go and tell others. Another thinks that no frontage can be made strong enough to hold water. We will try and get hold of him and put flea in his ear" and let it buzz tinhe cries,
 T yieidi yield. by argument compelled.
 Another thinies, 'tIt sg4l cost Ut least. s4,090, ,oo0 or S5,e00, eco and thsgogern men1 can't afford the expense, etc. They all need more light and if it is possible to persuade Binger Herman to go and visit the site as soon as Con gress adjourns ave pill do it. He then will be more than convinced of the need and feasibility of the project. He is man of large ideas and can judge for himself'and can convince others.
 But to the 'swaif'' and it's present position. The Post of this morning in- forms us that the House committee non-eencurred in the amendments, and some of them were discussed yesterday, while ours is returned and may (and we hope will bel passed with the bill.
