has ever been i'm Alexandria in the
Swarthmore Cnautauqua circuit was
delivered in the big tent to the rear
Of the Second Baptist Church last
evening by Julius Caesar Maybe,

Grecian parents in the CITY Of Athens
and who has received his education
both i'm the Palestine Universities
and at Harvard.
The lecture was richly illustrated
with the wonderful tapes tries Of the
Orient, which at great expense Mr..
Maybe has imported into this coun-
try. His numerous wittirismS hclDed
