has travelled all over the United States.
to Cuba, England, Germany and several
other countries. The day after the news
of Marconi's Atlantic success was
telegraphed to New York. Mr. Baker
started for Newfoundland. He was the
first representative of 4 magazine to

peared in recent number Of one Of the
leading periodicals. a few days ago he
started, as / have said, for England,
where he will remain for two or three
weeks. Some time during the spring he
will begin journey around the world,
which will take him away from New
York for ten months or a year It was
in the days of his youth as q newspaper
reporter that Mr.. Baker formed the
habit of travel. While ON a Chicago pa
per- ne accompanied Gen Coxey on his
famous march to washington Mr.
Baker was one Of the first to hear
Coxey3 plans and he was not long get
ting to the camping ground of the agita-
ter. Two or three days before the APP
pointed time for starting the CoXew cav
alcade, there seemed TO be little hope
for the movement. Few of the army had
turned up. Mr.. Baker. however, was
not to be disappointed. Together with
two other reporters, he secured about
the surrounding country and towns and
gathered about a hundred genuine
hoboes and castaways from a defunct
circus, agreeing to pay them each fifty
cents day and beard to swell the
CoXey ranks and make a fair start.
On the morning appointed, however.
Coxey admirers flocked into the town
in great crowds and the reporters hired
