She is as majestic as the sphinx, as pretty as a veltlne, as sentimental as a German (school girl and as whole some as a gtat big dice of bread and butter. She has the strength of tn ordinary nifn united with the silky, satin fem inity of a hundred ordinary womcn ai:d Bhu h;8 stepped down from the dwelling place of the gods to do strong women stunts In tiie Uainum and Bailey circus. Her name It ougbt to be a sonorous siring of syllables like Boadlcea. In fact, if sue had iron in her nature she might pose magnificently as , the pale British queen In her war chariot, charging the legions of Rome. But her name is Katie. Absolutely inadequate of course Katie Sandwlna. The Barnum & Bailey circus nobly tries to improve matters by announcing her as "Europe's Queen of Strength, Beauty and Dexterity," but even that respectful designation falla short of conveying the elemental grandeur which radiates from the personality of Superwoman ICatle. She was bred from a long line of profeaional strong men and strong women. Her father was the strongest man in Germany, Phillip Erumbach. He was six feet, six Inches high and could lift 500 pounds with his little finger. Delving a little further Into the heredity of Katie Sandwina, Johanna, the redoubtable wife of Phillip Brum- bach and mother of 16 children. Includ ing "Europe's Queen of Strength, Beauty and Dexterity," is the1 daughter of Johan and Katrina Nock, the former a professional gymnast and the latter a wine walker and all round athlete. Both are still alive, at the ages of 96 and 94 respectively. Phillip Brum- bach's father was also a strong man, but was killed by an accident to a cir cus wagon. Ilia father's father, Frau Katie's great grandfather, was a gym nast and owner of a circus, and lived to a green old age. And so on. In fact for a couple of centuries or more, the mighty-muscled people of Bavaria have been Intermarrying and turning out large families of great ath letes, culminating in the gigantic and bautful young creature who now twirls ier lord and master over her head wire a day In the great circus, which will be here on August 27, for an af ternoon performance only. Statu. With Umbrella. Some poor art is to be seen In this country in the shnpe of statues dedi cated to the memory of preat men. but no American enormity in this line quite equals that which' was perpetrated by an English sculpton for the town of fteadlnff. When the fellow townsmen of a certain George Palmer of that place decided to honor his memory they de termined uion a bronze statue of Pal mer, which fdinuld be not merely a portrait as to features, hut a correct presentment of blin as he appeared among them every day.' Accordingly, the stranger In Reading Is startled by the most unconventional of statues. with every crease und wrinkle of the homely attire of the original repro duced.
