WALKING AROUND
UNITED STATES
STARL CROWLEY WALKING 1900
MILES ON A WAGER OF ST.
900. PASSES THROUGH
KINGSVILLE.
Headed for Brownsville - Detailed
Report of His Long Tramp So Far
Due to Return to Toledo, His
Starting Point by June 20, 1910.
He Has Walked 5000 Miles.

Kingsville, Texas, Aug. 30.-Starl
Crowley, who is walking around the
United States, reached Kingsville last
night and left today for Brownsville
on his long tour
Crowley left Toledo, Ohio, on the
25th of last October with a copper
cent as his cash capital, and he is to
make the trip, ending at Toledo in
June, 1910. From Toledo he went
north along the eastern border of
lake Erie and lake Ontario, until he
reached the Canadian line. This he
followed as nearly as possible until
he reached the northeastern corner
of Maine, and then he followed the
Atlantic coast until he reached the
southernmost part of Florida. He then
followed the gulf coast as closely as
he could crossing the Mississippi at
New Orleans.
From New Orleans he kept as
near the coast as possible until he
reached Bolivar Point, from which
place he was conveyed to Galveston
in a boat. Not being permitted to
walk across the railroad bridge out
of Galveston, he took the train from
there to Virginia Point. On account
of the low lands, he followed the
Santa Fe from Virginia Point to Al
goa, and from there he kept the st.
Louis, Brownsville & Mexico Railroad
to Kingsville.
AS near as he can estimate, he
will have walked about 5000 miles
when he reaches Brownsville. From
Brownsville he will follow the Rio
Grande until he reaches Del Rio,
when he will take the Southern Pa
cific and follow that road to Californ-
ia. In California he will take a rest
and. will then follow the Pacific coast
to. Canada and then along the Cana
dian line to the lakes, when he will
follow the coast of the until Tole-
do is reached.
He is making his long walk for a
prize of $4,000 and during his trip
he must not beg, borrow or steal. He
is a professional paper-tearer, and
makes his living by tearing pretty de-
signs out of paper, and doing odd
jobs. He left Toledo with fine six
shooter, which he carried merely as
matter of self-protection, but in
Charlottesville, Fla, he was arrested
for carrying unlawful weapons and
fined enough to make it necessary for
him to give up his gun in order to
liquidate his fine.
The only bad effect he feels from
walking is blistered feet, but on
reaching Brownsville he hopes to Sc
cure work which will enable him to
give his feet rest for a few days
When he gets back to Toledo,
which he must do by June %, 1910,
in order to win his prize, he will
have travelled approximately 1900
miles.
