The circus has been more con- ! i?i?tently jfroductiv? of ruin than has iny other commercial enterprise. One, and only one, Ringling Brothers ' and Barnum & Bailey Combined Shows, indisputably the greatest show on earth, has achieved magni- , tude, stability, commercial significance, according to an article in Fortune, the business magazine. Circus is animals. Circus is "art.'' Circus is rolling stock and big top razorback and band. Circus is everything you can see and hear upon the lot-r-arul one thing more. The thing is not a big name. The. thing, again, is not perseverance, or more money when wet tops or other misfortunes follow the circus. Nowadays a circus needs ringling. Kingling is infinite capacity for detail and for organization; ringling is forty-odd seasons with at least one Ringling brother on the lot at each performance; ringling is knowing the length of every railroad aiding in the country and knowing railroad men by | their first names; ringling is willing to pay a fortune (said to be $30,000) for Goliath, the sea elephant, though no on? thought the animal could survive two weeks of circus travel. Only one great American fortune has been amassed in this precarious enterprise, ' the $50,000,000 plus of John Ringling,> says the Hartford Courunt. The first Ringling circus opened in 1884, with twppty-two horses and eleven wagons, no band wagon, no 1 menagerie, no wild animals. Today ! "Mr. John's" circus has among other thipgs a pay roll of more than 1,600 people, 735 horses and more than , 1,000 other animals; 100 double length railroad cars; over 100 cages, j dens, tanks, pens and lairs; its own j doctors, lawyers, dentists, detectives, i chefs, cooks, waiters, power plant, over sixty children who travel with it, | attending school as they go, reciting to teachers paid by|the circus; a seating capacity, when on the road, of 15,000. In a season it will give 400 performances before a total of about 40,000,000 people. It will gross about $6,000,000, including income from side shows and concessions, an average of $1.50 per customer. It will travel 15,000 miles, and it wiill spend each day about $18,500, a great deal of it, in local markets. There has never been another 100car circus. There has never been another so successful. But Mr. John until last autumn had a rival?the American Circus Corporation, which controlled Sells-Floto, Hagenbach-Wallace, John Robinson, Sparks, and A1 G. Barnes. This consolidation was able to challenge the power of Mr. John, though none of the "five units could challenge the prestige of Mr. John's 10O-car organization. Mr. John did not mand. There are enough towns to go around. There is just one thing which Mr. John will permit no rival. Mr. John opens the circus season, and he opens it atJ Madison Square Garden. It has been so for a generation. And this spring, as alwaye, he came to the Garden. But thereby hangs a tale of hot words in the offices of the Garden management. The tale of the demise of the American Circus Corporation. Madison Square Garden was built as a temple to the padded glove, and Mr. John helped to build it. One of Mr. John's jpostt famous discoveries, Tex Rickard, until he died, was boxing high priest. Nevertheless, the Garden in April is Mr. John's. At least, so thought Mr, John, and so thought the public. But Mr. John found otherwise. The other Madison Square Garden directors declared flatly to Mr. John; "You cannot bring your three asterick circus into the Garden unless you agree to fold it up each week on Friday and let us put on a fight. You cost us important money last year." Mr. John would not agree. He said he would .open his season in the old Twenty-second Armory. The deal was almost consummated when it became known that the Garden officials had made an agreement with the American Circus Corporation Sells-Floto would play in the Garden in the spring. That was the end of the American Circus Corporation. The following morning the 150 cars, 4,500 people, 2,000 animals, tents, baggage, stock, names, in fact the entire peculiar civilization of their five shoWi belonged to Mr. John. . So Mr. John now haa six frontrank circuses ^nd four, or five carnival outfits?almdst $10,000,000 wor^h. Big business. All routing* made from a single office. You are not apt to reflect that the preaeboe ot-the Ringling Brothers and Baitowm A Bailey Combined Shows at the fair grounds ftf your town is a certification of the prosperity of your community. But your Chamber of Commerce a"* ....... - ' jm<. ' ?ju <nowa that Riuglmg statisticians lave been checking on employment conditions, crop prospect*, bank deposits, rail facilities, road conditions tor months jmtft. If these did not mea'Uie up to Kingliog requirements Mr. John would have gone right by you. Nor are the reports on which he bases hit. operations out of date. The route t>f u circus may be changed a do*en limes during the season. Mr. John has a circus factory at his winter quarters at Sarasota, Florida Ibis summer, while the circus is on tin* road, next year's big top will be made. A new one is jxrovided every year, and $150,000 worth of materials arxl labor go into the making of this, the largest stretch of canvas ever raised, the central roof of a twentyacre colony. A new tent goes out twenty-five feet longer than it returns at the season's end: so much it shrinks in summer rali>sf Mr. John pridos himself that once his big top is pitched it is never in danger of blowing down; its rortf does not leak. And this in spite of the fact that it is always up within an hour of the arrival on the grounds. He Vnakes a good living und has, in most instances, far more comfortable surroundings than he could provide for himself otherwise. l)o animals breed in captivity? Some do and some do not. Members of the cat family are mpst prolific, lions, tigers and panthers frequently presenting their owners with cubs which may grow up to be of great exhibition value. (l But of elephant calves only two oi three have been born and successfully reared in America. Monkeys, it is surprising to learn, very rarely breed ir captivity. Probably not more than a half-dozen monkeys were born in this country during the past year.
