who are they"
This is the unbidden query that
rises in the minds Of nine-tenths OF
those who witness the performances
of the men and women of the Bar
mum & Bailey circus In fact. the re-
latfonship between the various fam
lilies" or "troupes" of performers In
the circus is a matter Of universal cur
iosity. In the circus company per-
formers who present their acts In uni
son are in the majority of instances
billed" as brothers" or sisters" or
families" Whether their relationship
is one of fact or expediercy is a con-
slant source OF inquiry to the public.
Another almost equally interesting
source of wonder is the pedigree OF our
circus artists Who are they? Where
do they come from? How did they be-
come circus performers?
There are a few instances in which
these queries truthfully answered,
would reveal some interesting and
curious facts. The "Grunatho Sisters"
for instance, are not all sisters They
are. however, all blood relatives. To

be readily observed In their clever ac-
robatic work. In the trio who form
the pedestal for the four young women
in the air. the SISTER" on the extreme
left is in reality the mother of the two
girls beside her and the child at the
top Of the pyramid The three girls in
the center are Nine. Grunatho's nieces.
The husband of Nine. Grunatho, who
is also associated with the big show,
is ring master.
In the acrobatic troupe known as
the Novelties, there are five men and
two ladies. The latter are sisters in
fact as we'll as for professional rea-
sons.
The Meers sisters are also actually
sisters. In fact, they belong to fam
lily that has, for many generations,
been noted for the number and cley-

erness Of it's girls. There have been
Meers Sisters for SO many generations
that it would take a book of geneolo-
gies to keep the record. AS far back as
the days of the Ashley circus, they
were in evidence. The latest claim
ants ITO the title are as dainty and
clever as any of their predecessors.
Altho young girls, they are married
Ouika is the wife of Dan Ryan, the
clown. Marie in private life is known
as Mrs. George Brown. Her husband
is also a circus clown.
In the Carmen troupe Of high wire
acrobats several families are represent
ed, but they are all connected by blood
or marriage Two of the cleverest girls
in the troupe are cousins, but look
enough alike to be sisters.
Josie De Mott and Louise Stckney
are sisters. The former has the dis
tinction of being the only ssomersault
equestrienne in the world. Her con-
tract with Barnun & Bailey obligates
her to accomplish at least three somer-
saults on a swiftly moving horse at
each performance of the big show. She
is the wife of Charles Robinson. Her
sister is the wife of Robert Stickney,
Jr and she and her husband are among
the most daring and skillful whirlwind
riders in America.
Isabelle Butler, the young and
comely American girl who has created
a furore by driving a somersault-
turning aerial automobile, is the wife
of Tom Butler, the famous champion
bicyclist.
Ella Bradna, the equestrienne, is a
Swiss girl. She retains the name of her
husband, Fred Bradna, who is a we'll
known equestrienne director.
These glimpses of the "real' men ana
women of the circus srnight be extended
without limit Those that have been
given will serve perhaps, to give AN
added interest and charm to the per-
sonal side Of the big show. Next Tues
day, August 81.

HEAVIER BATTERIES IN THE
FUTURE.

The experiences Of gun inventors
during the last decade have shown
that, as compared with the 13-lnch gun,
the advantages are all with the H.
Inch. The latter does practically rs
much damage as the larger gun, II
lasts longer, 1t occupies less room In
the turrets and II costs less to fire
Even for coast defense the l3-lnch gun
has been abandoned, nothing heavier
than the 12-inch being used In any of
our Notifications, although Sandy
Hook possesses one 1G-inch gun for
which Congress has never provided
money enough TO buy suitable car
rlage The new English l3.5-lnch gun
Indicates, therefore, revolutionary
abandonment OF principle that both
gun and armor.makers had considered
scttlod-the principle that the limit OF
effective fire had been reached In the
l2inch rifle. Now that the pendulum
has teen set swinging In the opposite
direction, we may yet have to discard
all OF our coast and naval batteries
and build heavier ones TO take thelr
places. The pace set by British CON
struCtion Is very costly to the world
at large, but II experiments prove II
20 be justified, II will be generally FOL
lowed and, where possible, excelled.
