How AN AMERICAN D1D EUROPE CHEApIY

How AN AMERICAN DID EUROPE CHEApLY.
A Mr.. Keller is lecturing in Boston on the
subject of his undertaking TO make the ''grand
tour" OF Europe upon the sum of $1S1 in green
backs his starting point being Toledo, Ohio
Dir. Keller is evidently Toledo blade OF great
keenness. lie got free ride to the seacoast,
bought Storage ticket in New York for Lon
don, gotta glimpse of the Worlds Far IN the
great city, saw the Emperor's fete in Paris, and
at length arrived at Heidelberg, where he took
lodgings in sky parior at a rent OF two gulden
or eighty cents month. Here he pursued his
studies at the University, aud sustained a de-
Gently comfortable existence upon breakfasts,
four kreutzers or three cents apiece, dinners
. that cost eight cents, and Suppers that came to
four cents for each one. Being graduate of
an American college, his tuition fees at the
University were $40 the half year. He trav-
elled over Germany 10 the disguise Of trades
mans apprentice, which secured him a good
fare at the lowest possible cost Three times
he was reduced to nearly his last sou, and three
times he was saved by remittauces from news
papers, to which he had sent contributions. -
One morning he found himself on the Pont
Neuf, In Paris, when he had not centime to
bless himself with, and had eaten nothing the
day before, and was saved from suicide only by
falling in with an unfortunate girl, who had
reached the spot intent upon her own destruc
ton. He made the tour triumphanty, and now
he is at home.
