NEW WAY AROUND THE WORLD.
Frank G. Clark Plans Trip with Modern

Comforts For Tourists.
It has long been realized BY trans
portation companies and touring agen.
cies that with the proper transporta.
tion facilities Round the World travel
would prove immensely popular.
TO very great extent the vexatious
problem Of world-travel has been solv-
"a within the past two years BY an en-.
terprising American tourist agent whose
name has occupied prominent posi-.
tion in travel affairs for many years
past.
Upon this plan it viii be possible to
embark in New York or San Francisco
on a mammoth transatlantic liner Of
nearly 10000 tons, embodying every
comfort and such luxury as Is offered
by the modern New York hotel, and
make the entire journey Around the
World without changing steamers. This
is truly princely travelling transat-
lantie leyiathan run Ike private
yacht, and we must admit the idea APP
pears entirely feasible and admits Of
great possibilities. II assuredly saves
some eighteen Connections and changes
of steamers.
An itinerary Of surprising interest
has been prepared By MIR. Frank c.
Clark emhodying every point Of tourist
interest along the way, and ample time
has been allowed for stops. The char
acter controls the steamer for the period
Of nearly four months, and having ar
ranged his own itinerary, Il IS not nee
essary to await the infrequent sailings
OF local steamers, and thus much yaln-
able time Il saved without any detri.
ment to the tourist Also the route
includes many places that are not Ia
reach Of the ordinary traveller unless
he waits for tramp steamers or sailing
vessels
The initial cruise leaves New York on
October 18th, 1909, arriving in San
Francisco the last Of January, 1910.
Another shipload of tourists secured
from an parts Of the Union will be on
hand to sail on the Cleveland on
February 5th for a similar cruise, taken
in the reverse direction, bringing them
back to New York the end Of May.
