The CIRCUS IS COMING
To AMERICUS ON 18th
Bio Robinson Shows Coming
Here Again

Something out of the ordinary is
a remark that can properly be made
OF Robinson's Famous Shows which
will exhibit here in Americas on
Monday, Oct. 13. The big circus has
a reputation for producing remark
able surprises in it's arena until the
publis has learned that it can attend
an exhibition of the Robinson Famous
Shows expecting to see something new
and different.
There is an unusual number of fea-
lures with this show this season. It
is difficult to pick the best. Some
will like the trained wild beasts ex-
hibition of horse wonders. Others will
enjoy the wonderful .equestrianism OF
the famous Orion family. Major Lit
tlefinger and wife, smallest human
adult mites now living. will have their
devotees. The wonderful $4,000 Ar
abian stallion, white Cloud highe st
educated horse in the world, will be
talked about for months after. The
Aztec Marimba Band, and other sim
liar curiosities in the museum depart
ment all have vital interest. You will
be surprised at the rareness and nov
city of many of the exhibits.

PHYSICAL FITNESS FOR BUSINESS MEN
THE MAN WHO WOULD ADD TO FIIS
HEIGHT.
By Frank A. Gotch, Worlds Wrestling Champion.

of stature; some of the sssztest dubs
are magnificent to gaze upon. 1t isn't
height or weight or punching power that
makes the world, and even in the realm
of physical power some little men have
it all over many big men.
Health is the first great thing. The
man Of five feet seven inches who liz
healthy is q better specimen than the
giant who is siclSly.
knowledge is the next great requisite.
There is as much room for valuable
thought in the Uranium of the short man
as there is in the brain of the big man.
and there is nothing in the experience of
the human kind to prove to the contrary.
Disposition is the third big element.
The short fellow who is agreeable makes
true friends and lots Of them. The big
fellow who is a crank makes no friends.
but many enemies.
My advice to this young man is to ac-
cept nature as it exists. Nature is the
best pal and draws our blue prints and
designs every atom of our beings. Exer-
else didn't make any man big. He had
that in him before birth. And exercise
is not a means of increasing height, but
Of promoting health and strength and
stimulating mental vigOr to carry one
over the rough bumps that are found in
every avocation On earth. Set as your
ideal some achievement worth while.
Make ply sical fitness subservient to that
ideal. Work for some goal in the world
that is worthy Of your effort and regard
ply steal exercise only as a SuStainer that
will stand YOU in good stead and make
possible your struggling toward some
greater mental achievement. And in that
answer / hope l have embodied enough
sound sense to help all men short of
stature to see that it isn't bodily height
but mental height that wins all that is
worth winning OH this old globe.

AMATEUR FENCING.
Journeys Likely to Take Place Be-
tween Nations.

NEW YORK, January 3.-American
amateur fencers who have cherished for
several years the project of an interna-
tional match. said today that a provisional
challenge has been sent to the English
amateurs to visit this country and COM
pete for an international trophy similar
to the Westminster polo cup or, the Davis
cup in lawn tennis.
]. Sanford Sultus, long a patron OF
American fencers, is said to have onered
to provide the trophy.
w. Scott O'ConnOr, secretary or the
Amateur Fencers' League of America,
said that the plan was the direct outgrowth
of the Olympic competition, in which close
fellowship was established between the
English and American teams. AT that
time" he said, 1.-The Englishmen promised
that if a trophy was offered a team OF
four men would visit this country to COM
pete for It," He said 1T was hoped to
make this match the beginning of series
of international affairs which would later
include French and Italian amateurs.

A letter comes to me from "E. ]. B"
of New York, who asks advice regard
ing adding to his height. He stands five
feet seven inches.
Now. this young man wants to realize
what thousands Of others hope for. 1t
is the common error of the human kind
to want to revamp nature, and only
regret that it is not possible to outline
any means of exercise that will add to
ones inches-so far as height is con-
cerned.
After the ligaments have stretched dur
ing a good nights sleep one is somewhat
taller in the morning than after a day
on ones feet. But those ligaments have
muscles or the nerves. and to stretch
them is to injure them; at least, it will
weaken them.
The cartilage may be stretched trifie,
but it pounds right back again. and
the tape will show at the years end that
the gain has not been worth the pain.

paint a picture envies the man who can

1T is this discomfort that makes for
progress, l presume: and the young man
who stands five feet seven inches may ex-
pect to want to be five feet eleven inches
tall, but why should this be his quest?

by their physical dimensions, but by
what they know and can do. Some of

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, January 3.-William
H. Locke, the young Pittsburgh who
appears to be as certain as anything can
be on this earth of being the next presi-
dent of the Phillies, has promised that
there shall be no faint Of syndicate ball
In the Quakers after he closes his deal
with Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati. Syn
dictate base ball is an evil, and yet it is
not always harmful for the same man to
own a block of stock in two or more
clubs
1t is best, however, not to have this
kind of ownership and Philadelphians will
be pleased to note that MIR. Locke has put
his foot down hard on the suggestion OF
men who own stock in the Pittsburgh
club to purchase an interest In the Phil
lies. Mr.. Locke has not only refused to
permit any such capitalists to aid him
financially in his venture here, but he has
also decided to dispose of his holdings In
the Pirates. Thus. there will be no ALL
ance between the two clubs other than
that of friendship between the Pittsburgh
clubs officials for their former secretary,
and vice versa.
For years three clubs in the country
major leagues have been models in the
manner in which their affairs have been
conducted. These are the Athletics OF
this city. the New York Giants and Pitts
burgh. In each the financial affairs of
the club and the playing end run parallel
with each other. In each of these clubs
the manager is supreme. In each the
manager has nothing to do with the rum
ming of the business end. A similar state
of affairs is expected to exist after VIII
Locke takes charge OF affairs at Broad
and Huntington streets.

More Syndicate Ball.

We're made to convince the pubic that
Horace S. Fogel was the real owner of

suspicion from the first pointed to Mr..

in Chicago. Charlie Murphy. a

Mr.. :Taft's ownership of the Phillies was
admitted. All the denials to the contrary
could not convince certain Philadelphians
Two of them were in a room at the Belle
vue-Stratford one night three years ago
when Mr.. Murphy, who was in an adjoin-
ing room. held a long-distance telephone
conversation with Mr.. Taft Mr. Murphy
shouted so loud that as one of those who
heard the conversation afterward said,
Charlie could have been heard on the
roof garden Of the hotel The CONVERSE
ton was about the purchase of the Phil
lies. and these Philadelphians got practi-
cally all of the details.

left field bleachers.
With the purchase of the Phillies by
the Locke syndicate the Murphy influence
in the affairs of the club will be wiped
out. That the Phillies can be made a
