WALKING TOUR OF THE WORLD.
FRANK S. COLBURN, THE YANKEE
TOURIST, IN WILMINGTON To-
DAY.


TOURIST, IN WILMINGTON To-
DAY.
Frank S. Colburn, who is styled
the Yankee Tourist " walked into Will
mington last night at IL O'Clock, pre-
cisely.
He is probably the most original and
legitimate globe-trotter in good
many years, as he iG not proceeding to
win atbet, but for the purpose of re-
storing a somewhat exhausted frame
by healthful exercise and air, and to-
improve mentally by the opportunity
TO study and reflect. He claims that
he has many resources of making an
honest livelihood enroute, and says
that II ne should at any time be COM
PEELED to accept courtesies I'm the way
of entertainment he has determined TO
offset such hospitality by contributing
TO some worthy object i'm the neighbor-
hood, an amount equal to that served
to him.
Colburn left New York city ten days
ago, but more than half of that time
has been stopping over at Philadelphia
and other cities along the route, which
so far has been through towns along
the lines of the Pennsylvania and the
B. & o. railroads. He paid a visit TO
the office of the Evening Journal this
morning just before setting out for
Elkton and gave the following inter-
esting account Of himself his trip and
his ideas:
"This country around Wilmington,
he said, lis very familiar to me. and
recalls the happiest scenes of bOyhOod.
I I'm the early 70s / was a student for
several years at Maplowood Institute

, holidays we used to roam sometimes

that the works of Bayard Taylor
whose plan will guide me-interested
me. and next to Charles Dickens.
he seemed the most wonderful man in
/ the world. His Views Afoot or Eu-
rope Seen With Knapsack and Stair is
undoubtedly my inspiration for this
trip
"You intimate that you shall seek to
! emulate Bayard Taylor in your
travels? In what respect do you
i mean?f asked the reporter
'I shall try. 60 use his own words,
Ito furnish @ faithful narrative of my
own experience, believing that none of

} nation so readily furnishes can equal
/ the charm of unadorned talk VIII
vary from his rule. however, in this
respect: I shall relate the strange eX-
tremities of want and amusing expe-
dients Of relief. no matter what sacri-
fee of feeling such confession may in

PRETTY LITTLE DELLA FOX.

The management of the Grand Opera
House viii present to it's patrons Sat
urday night, October 3, Della Fox, the
comic opera queen, and her well-eQuip
ped comic opera organization, present
ing the highly successful opera. "Fleur
de-Lis.' It is an opera with two very
comic nOblemen, q robust young lover
and a ubiquitous and cheerful heroine.
The count and the marquis are.at war,
although they love each other like
brothers, and can't help telling each
other stories of their old days together
in Paris whenever they meet. In the
character of "Fleur-de-Lis" Miss Fox
is afforded more scope for her peculiar
talent in comedy than she has had be-
fore in several years. 1t also affords
her splendid opportunity for singing,
and she proves that her voice has lost
neither in power nor richness. She is
supported by an excellent company
sixty people in all. At her first ap-
pearance Miss Fox sings a pretty lit
tie song, mot That Sort of a Girl, and
thereafter appears in turn as a flower
vendor, soldier, vivandiere, rural
maiden and wandering boy singer. Ca
PRECIOUS and amusing as ever she still
is, and the vim and dash she throws
into her role would carry the show
even if it had nothing else to recon-
mend it.

KELLAR, THE GREAT MAGICIAN.

KELLAR, THE GREAT MAGICIAN.
Kellar, the magician, who comes to-
the Grand Opera House October 8, thus
tells how the famous HindoO basket
trick is done:
81 first saw the trick performed by an
old fakir in the streets of Allahabad
Having gathered a small circle of for
eigners about .um, he allowed them to
select a spot in the street where the
ground was clean. He had with him
basket, with a hinged lid, a sharp
SWORD and a small boy. He wore no
clothing himself, except a flowing cloth
about his loins and waist He placed
the boy in the basket and closed the
lid He then began to mutter some
sort of an incarnation or prayer, in the
midst of which he snatched up a white
cloth and threw one end of it around
the basket, binding it. The other end
of the cloth he drew toward himself
and tucked the corner into his girdle
Swi., as a nash he drove the keen
edged sword through me basket again
and again. The shrieks and agonizing
cries of the child grew fainter ana
fainter until they had ceased alto
gether The fakir wiped the
dripping blood from his sword and

the. basket. 1t was empty OF course,
but the illusion was so perfect that /
wouldn't have been surprised TO have
seen the butchered remains Of the boy
there. When the lid was opened, how
ever, q glad cry sounded. and the boy
was discovered, seated upon the limb OF
tree some yards away, waving his
arms in delight l gave it up, and then
bought the secret for two rupees. The
way it was accomplished was TINS.
The chad, we'll trained to his work
slips from the basket under the white
cloth when the juggler throws 1t over
the basket, receiving his cue in Hindo-
stane. Under cover of the cloth he
reaches a point between his master
legs. siezes him about the waist and en-
twines his small. sinewy form around
Z his body. screened by the loose flowing
folds of the cloth. When the basket Il
opened every one looks inside It, AZ

A. Jaslowsky, Esq,
General Agent for the Massachus-
etts Benefit Life Association,
Dear Sir: Allow me TO express my
sincere thanks for the prompt manner
in which you settled the cia4m of One
Hundred Dollars on the life of my
boy, Paul Radek. The total premiums
1 paid were only S1.14. If he had been
insured in one of the weekly compan-
les I would have only drawn S29 and
would have had to pay % cents a
month. while in the

Massachusetts, Benefit Life

I only paid 10 cents each month. My
claim was reported July 10th and five
days after 1 received a check for the
fun amount. If 1 had taken the advice
of agents of the weekly companies ]
would have dropped your insurance
and taken theirs, thereby losing sixty
one dollars. l strongly advise my
friends and the public in general who
desire insurance or who have insur-
ance at the present time that they can
secure protection at far less than the
usual high rates of other companies
by joining your company. Again
thanking you and the Massachusetts
Benefit Life Association for your
promptness and courtesy in adjusting
the claim. I remain
Very truly yours,
TILLY RADEK,
80 Lamotte street.
