The tourists illustrated lecture firm OF
Z. L. Hubbard anil j. T. Mullin, trading
as Hubbard ~ MulliD, gave one OF their
celebrated serio-comic, stefeopticon lee
lures last evening to full and delighted
audience in Brandywine VI. h. Church.
The lights suddenly went out at eight
o'clock, and did not get lighted again
until the close OF the lecture. "McGinty"
lost his little daughter, got his eye put
out and run out his lcne llaming-red
tongue so far that everybody laughed
at him, until he suddenly drew it back
again.
Aside from some OF the views getting
wrong4ide front anu upside down,
nothing more Herious, H. the semblance
OF accidents occurred. Since there We Q
so many comic pictures and funny re-
marks. that the audience hsd 10 laugh a
score OF times, all mishaps were cheer
fully forgiven.
AZ the speaker of the evening, DR..
Hubbard, came forward OH the scenic
stage he was Immediately followed, as
Introduced, by DR.. Grice, tue president
OF the assemblage. DR.. II. then under
took verbally 10 introduce his partner
scenlcally, but that gentleman was so
modest as to be entirely invisible until
the end OF the lecture, and then only
partially so. 1t was explained that this
was sample of several attractive views
that were reserved for the next lecture
and conditions that would bring them
out palmer.
The great success OF tie lecture lay In
the numerous rapid and 'ontinuous pre-
sentation Of the beautiful, attractive,
historic and grand pictures and the ab-
seuce of all formal and labored oratory
en- the part of the lecturer. The firm is
doing really good business. While we
have nade no inquiry into their internal
affairs we are not too bliad TO perceive
that they keep an account with "Profit
g. Loss," that they make long and costly
journeys to foreign countries, that they
buy expensive machinery, a more ex.
pensive instrument ana most expensive
Views all at their own expense which
| they charge to account of "Proft &
Loss"
On the other hand the church credits
"proat and loss" with all the proceeds OF
thess enterpriaing lectures. We trust
/ the former firm will not break, as Mr..
| Mullin does not carry on his clothiDg
| business en- the same self sacrificing Q
basis, and the church firm will not get
| phi5o piOhus
Scenes and uIldings-inc'udlng the
largest one IN the world-were shown
from Brussels, a ship 800 feet long, Ant
werp, monument OF the battle Of Water
loo, scenes and castles on the Rhine, Bern
and Switzerland, Paris, Worlds Fair,
Caiacomb5, London, where live {, 6,00a, 900
people, including more Jews than In

aud mere Scotchmen thai IN Edinburgh,
the finest city in the world. Numerous
views from all these great cities, includ
ing Dublin, Edinburgh and other noted
places, were shown and explained.
Dr. Hubbard Travelled 80 miles a day
OH his bicycle and recovered his health
| Mr.. Mullln, who was subject to a sick
turn at the very start. had excellent
health thereafter throughout the jour.
ney.
We congratulate this lecturlnC firm OH
