| short red beard. He was born In Mill.
Vile, Ohio. March 3, 1868. In 1869 he
went to White Cloud In the state Of Kan
sas. He pursued = regular course of stu
dies in the public schools, ,and 10 1850 he

way machinist, travelling continually
through the states OF Kansas, Missouri,
Illinois and Wisconsin,, but never
ceasihg to contribute articles 10 the
leading Journals aud to the reviews OF
Kansas City, Chicago and New York.
Ga Nov. 2 oflsst year he decided to
undertake \ very arduous project
which he had cherished for q long
time. This was to make u tour through
the world on foot. He remained In the
United Suites until the above men-
toned time, because, like u good
American, he dida't wish to leave the
country without first knowing the re-
suit of the Presidential election. He
embarked at New York and landed at
Southampton. Oa foot he travelled
through the isle OF Wight and through
the greater portion OF England; then
from Havre to Paris, from Paris to
Lyons, Marseiilcs, Toulon, Nice,
Geneva, Pisa and Rome. He will

Switzerland aud Germany, arriving
directly at Berlin. From Berlin he
will go to Dresden, Vienna, CONSTANT
nople, Odessa. MOSCOW and st. Peters,
burg. From there he will start for
Sweden and Norway, Scotland, Ire.
land and England, remaining a short
time in London. From London he
