in the city Monday afternoon and
remained at the Elmwood hotel over
night. Mr.. and Mrs. Richards are
making the trip under the auspices

average distance to be covered each
day is 81 IL miles. So far they are
one half a day ahead of their sched-
ule

trip is being made are rather dras-
tic and will probably tax their in
genuity before the trip is over to
make both ends meet. Their capital
at starting was 1000 postal cards on
which are printed their pictures and
the conditions under which the trip
is being made. They had no cash
whatever. They must get a post
Office stamp in every town of over
5000 inhabitants. They must pay
cash for all expenses, food, clothing,
lodging. steamer fare and other eX-
renses. They must touch the cap
itals of every state in the United
States and Canada and every coun-
try in the world. They must do no
work and no donations are allowed.
They must furnish a photo of them
selves at each capital. They are al
lowed no steam or electric train
transportation. Water transportation
is allowed on oceans only. Nothing
but the English language is to be
spoken. There will be no money or
time allowance for sickness and they
must report their progress daily. All
money for expenses and new cards
must be derived entirely from the
sale of their post cards for which
anyone can give whatever they wish.
