THE SIGHTSEEING AMERICAN
By FREDERIC J. HASKTN.

When tomorrow shuts the doors OF the
jamestown Exposition an end Will be put
20 the great American hegiras until the
next exposition is opened, but the smaller
pilgrimages will continue, for Americans
are notably restless folk. Norfolk had
more people within a twenty-four-hour
radius Of her fair grounds than any other
city except Buffalo ever had, and a good
ly percentage of the 100000 people in
that territory took occasion TO visit tide
water Virginia somewhere between the
first OF May and the last Of November
From every other State in the Union
Virginia drew guests during the summer,
for at the jamestown Exposition more
States had erected buildings than at any
previous one, and patriotic pride as well
as a love Of travel was motive IN their
coming.
Before the civil war the people Of the
United States rarely travelled at all.
Then the soldiers on both sides, who had
seen much Of other States than thier
own. told stories of adventure to the
neighbors when they returned, and Amer
lean curiosity was aroused. BY the time
the Philadelphia Centennial was opened
there were plenty Of people who We're
ready 10 travel and who had the money
saved with which to do 1t. The records
show that 9910.966 people attended that
exposition, and that of these 1888 were
admitted in one day, at the rate Of thirty
minute.
Having acquired a taste for going some
where, the American public Immediately
demanded places to see. The railroads
fell IN with the spirit of the times and
began running excursion trains. or offering
reduced rates 70 this or that point. They
saw the value of this as a printer named
Cook had seen It twenty-five years be-
fore In England. when he engineered the
worlds first railroad excursion from
Leicester TO Loughborough and took 600
people sightseeing. Cooks excursion rev.

An Englishwoman. waiting for her turn
at a Paris ticket Office, once remarked
too audibly: Americans do roam so"
There is truth in her biting remark. and
some clever person has come on the heels
OF this with the assertion that travel. like
novel writing, seems to have attacked
pretty nearly everybody. America yearly
sends 70 Paris between forty and fifty
thousand tourists at the very least, TO
say nothing of several thousand more to
worship at the shrine Of the elusive Cod

200 10 $500 sight-seers. Every Saturday in
the spring an average Of ten ocean liners
leave New York piers, and put out across
the sea, with nine-tenths Of the passeu-
gers on board carrying what are called
tourist tickets" For the tourist ticket
and the personally conducted touring
party have become everyday things in
modern travel, and are rapidly taking
their place among the educative things
OF the nation. Since the Spanish-Ameri-
can war, so a prominent tourist agency
claims. over 10000 people every year have
gone abroad on tourist tickets. To meet
such transatlantic travel. shin com
panies have built palaces at a cost OF
from three to four million dollars. and
san them across AT a cost Of nearly $50
900 each trip.
But great as the exodus is to che Old
World each year, II is not now SO great
as the continual passing back and forth
Of Americans IN their own land. This
was not always 50. and IS being pointed
to with particularly great pride by the
loyal citizen, who shows this to mean
a greater patriotism and a keener in
terest IN domestic development. Fairs
and railway excursions are responsible
for it. The general prosperity OF the
country and the increased educational
facilities OF each section have encour-
aged and permitted it. The average
American sees only one big exposition In
his day and time, but as he stays at home
next year and lets some other member
of the family go, sooner or later he and
all his children get a pretty good idea
Of the country and have had d goodly
bit Of travel
During the jamestown Exposition the
greater number Of tie visitors arranged
their tickets so they could stop over in
Washington. The railways opened a Joint
Office here, where tickets could be vail
dated. and during the fair Of seven
months duration, 5000 people validated
tickets each month at this Office, and
fully 5000 more passed through Wash
ington each month whose tickets were
not Of the kind requiring depesiting. At
the Capitol the average number OF visi-
tors ran over a thousand a day, and a
census enumeration would have showed
that they were from every State in the
Union, with a sprinkling from almost
every civilized country on the globe.
NThe Portland Exposition caused such
low railroad rates to De established that
thousands of people who would never
have seen the West otherwise took ad-
vantage Of the opportunity and went out.
So fast and so furious was the Western
