opera, princess Bonnie" that is now in

have met with such success here in the
last two years.

Sailor Jean and his ''trolleyette" made
short call here Saturday and then
liked off up the railroad toward West
Paris, where he expected to spend Sun
day; and if he wasn't tired and cold
handed before he had pushed his wheel
barrow eight miles in the teeth of
northeast storm to his place of Sabbath |
rest, then this is poor guess. Sailor
Jean is good looking, athletic young
fellow, who has started out to make
tour of the United States on foot, visit
ing every state capital. His start was
made from Augusta April LIST, and he
expects to wind up the tour at Boston
late in the fall of 1906, when he will
write a book" He carries his effects |
in his ''trolleyette," which is a wheel
barrow with one bicycle wheel and
body made from barrel, so hung that
he has to carry pretty nearly the full
wight vi IL. llc 10 SuPPooSN
his way by selling souvenirs consisting
of half-tone cut of him and his outfit.
