That any of the motor brtgandS

Oldfield himself is heartbroken over
the apparent loss of his cherished per-

veteran, Il bought that car in Ell Paso,
early in the Spring. It's been as far
east as New York. as far into the North
west as Tacoma and it's stopped off in
most points in between. It's been ten

track in the country and it's carried
me around every day it wasn't enroute

I've paid around $4,000 in express

Gurnwalt, Sew enteen Years Old, Makes Tour of World on Foot and is Now Walking to Florida and New York

Walking for his health ever since he was fourteen years of age, Alex ander Gurnwaldt a Russian boy, now seventeen, arrived in the city yesteT- day afternoon on his way from San Francisco to New York by the way of Texas and Florida. On his arrival in the east he will take employment on the Saturday Evening Post.
 On July 26, 1912, he started from San Francisco for a hike around the world. He returned in ten days less than three years. A father and a brother died of tuberculosis and he therefore sought the open as an es- cape from the disease. While he is active, he is not robust, but he has inured himself to hardshps.
 He has had many thrilling eXperi- ences. He was in Hamburg, soon after the breaking out of the war and was suspected of being Russian spy. He saw posters on the street, giving a description of him. Then he went into hiding and one nightS he succeeded in stealing 'sailhoat, which he maneuvered down the Elbe to the North Sea. He was later picked up by an English vessel.
