EVERBoDY WENT ON II
Prettilv Decorated Phoenix Homes, Music, Amuse ments of All Sorts and Hospitality Were But a Part of the Tour.

From the view point of the tourist who made the trip around the world in eighty minutes yesterday it was easily worth his dollar and whatever else 1t cost him-even if he was bi- reckless with his money; and from the point of view of the Associated Char ities which gathered in the dividends. il is to be hoped the tour was equally satisfactory. The receipts have not been counted vet but there is hardly doubt that they will at least equal expectations.
 All afternoon and evening :. pro- cessiOn of automobiles carried tine globe trotters from one station 10 an other. Every stopping place was diff ferent from the one preceding: even ones welcome seemed to conform with the characteristics of the country iu which he happened to be. At Palm Lodge. which your ticket told you was Washington. n. C. where the Colonial danes. held forth. diSnified and courteous welcome was extended: It was gracious and sincere-Such a wei come as might have been extended m the days when Salem and Plymouth Rock were new names and not obi ones At Guadalajara. which was sit uated at the Dwight B. Heard resi- dence, the welcome was hilarious and joyful. Glad torreadors circulated ev cry where and slapped you on the shoulder while Mexican stringed or chestra played the liveliesr melodies. At Dublin. which in in Ireland and situated close to the residence of Ur. Ancil Martin. ones reception was pos itively boisterous. Whatever disnitc one has. was cast aside at the door from compulsion rather than choice for every one was compelled to take part in an Irish jig whether he ever jigged in his life before or not.
 The tour of the world started at san Francisco. the residence of C. D. Dor ris on West Jefferson street The Dor ris home resembled a railway office There was time table on the wall that indicated that all trains were on time. There was a cigar stand and news table with magazines and jars of railroad candy that was really quite superior and infinitely better than one expects to get in a railway station This Is where you bought your ticket It had coupons on it just like Cooks tour ticket and they tore one off every thousand miles or so. At this station Mrs. Doris. Mrs. Sims Ely. Mrs. Chamberlain and Mrs. N. O. Bicknell saw to the welfare of the passenger as he started on his tremendous Jour ney. No passes were issued: not even the general traffic manager was on the free list The interstate commerce law was observed to it's last letter. All hoboes who attempted to steal rides on the brake beam or the bumpers were elected.
 The first stop from San Francisco by rail. as anybody known is Japan Yokohama is situated at. the C. W / Doris residence. The weary traveier after a journey by rail of at least two blocks found himself at the entrance of q temple with one of those little red pergolas in front of it. They don't call them pergolas 'over there but that doesn't matter much It looked ilke a perGola. Inside the rooms were bow CTS of pink and lavender wisteria hanging from the ceilings one room was the tea room where tea grown iu Japan was served from tabarets in udilltN JdpdntSe cillld. III cuOiHSt room one wall was covered with a wall painting representing FhIsiyams in glowing and harmonious color. Cot ored lanterns lighted hung from 'ail-ttt ceilings. Intermingled with. the wis teria were pepper sprigs and the whole effect vas one of rich color and thft peculiar decorativei effect that. seeiRs to have reached its last deyelopme1t in Japan alone. AS onee walked into this little Yokohana he was met zt the door by the mikado and his satel- lites. Fitting back and forth in thetr tiny shores were Japanese girls dress ed in silk kimonas and all taking those mincing little steps that never got them anywhere but looked pretty just the same.
