CYR, THE MARVELOUS.
Strongest Man in the World with the
Robinson Shows.
When the John Robinson greatest of
nil American shows exhibits in Red
Cloud, Tuesday, May 10, the patrons of
this famous amusement institution will
have an opportunity to soo not only
tho strongest and most perfect athlete
over known in the history of tho world
but also a series of athletic features
such as can bu scon nowhere else on
earth. Mr. Louis Cvr, tho famous Ca
nadian strong man, who has boon so
cured by tho management of this great
est of great shows as a spocial attrac
tion during the season of 1BU8, has tho
world's record not only for this decado,
but also for all time. So fas as known
his marvelous feats of strength and
lifting have never boon equalled, and
he is beyond all question tho strongest
man who has over lived. Phyically
Mr. Cyr is a colossus. His height is
5 foot 101 inches, and without one
pound of superfluous flesh he weighs
285 pounds. Tho breadth of his shoul
ders is 27 inches, and his neck meas
urement 2.1 inches. His thigh, calf and
forearm development is equally great,
whilo his biceps, without being distend
ed, show thn icmarknhln measurement
of 21 J inches. Mr. Cyr's recoid is
equally wonderful, and uautheutieated
by no less an authority than tho New

987 pounds tfth ono hand -,18071 pounds
with both Undsj and a clear lifting
feat ef 4,800 ounds. Theso wonderful
records havenovor been even approxi
mated, and i is doubtful if tho world
will ever agon produce a man capable
of such enonous feats of strength. All
of Mr. Cyr's eats nro astounding, but
some are paiicularly so. This is es
pecially truof his unprecedented ex
hibition of mat can be accomplished
in holding p live weight. Without
artificial ah tho Canadian hcrculcs
supports twaty-tivo mon upon a plat
form poised pon his shoulders sup
porting his romendous burden with
tho caso of a atlas, and tho steadiness
of a column f solid masonry. His dis
play of strogth with human dumb
bells and ther equally surprising
feats keep tk audience in a condition
of oxcitomei throughout his marvel,
ous porformJco. Mr. Cyr is ably as
sisted by braco Barro, tho French
Samson, whio feats of strength have
given him a'orld wide fame. In ad
dition to tbifrreat feature there is ev
ery thing tu goes to mako up a com
