Minneapolis Tribune February 4
Paul Jones the celebrated globe trot-
ter la registered at the Nlcollirt
House Mr Jones whose real name by
the waj is V C PfeltTer arrived In
Minneapolis yetirdi out the North-
ern Pacifla railroad from Spolcano I1 alls
He Is on his return trip to Boton hat-
ing made the circuit of the globe under
circumstances more peculiar than any
which hate yet attended the ordinary
traveler whef has fur his ulm a trip
around the world
When aetm by the Tribune last even-
ing Mi Jones aa ho piefers to be
known during hU trip talked lutcreji
Jnily and entertainingly of he causes
hich Impelled hici to uttenvt the
Jiurney and ot his success In carrying
out his plans
Himt the Stnrt Uai Made
I was sitting In the club one evening
with a group of men ho said when
the expense connected with a trip
around the world became the topic
Two Americana had just made the trip
and their expenses amounted to J8000
each I expressed myself as being of
the oplnon that a man ought to start
on such a trip with nothing and make
tnone > One of the parlies asked me
If I thought 1 could do such a thing
and X said I thought I could Then
several wagers were made that I could
not do It Altogether 1000 was staked
and the agreement was that 1 was to
be put into a room my cloth taken
from me and 4hat In one year I was
to trael around the world and make
Including my expenses J5Q00
One day In tebruary of last year
I was put Into an apartment where
there nas no furniture My clothes
were taken from me Several newspa-
per mfn heard of this und came to see
me They knocked at the door for ad-
mittance but I told them they could
not come In unless they paid me a cent
apiece Th y paid the fee A commit-
tee was present < o see that the start
was made fair and according to agree-
ment I gave one of ray visitors n cent
with which he bought me a i > aper With
this paper I made as much of a suit
of clothes as was possible At any rate
It made mepresentable and I was able
to talk more freely Other people came
and the men who had paid roe a cent
to come in paid me 10 cents to get
their original pennies back They
thought there might be luck In them
In this way I got a dollar or such a
matter and then sent out and bought
norno Manilla paper With this I made
a suit of clothes which I stuck together
with gum Next I went to a tailor
told htm of my wager and of my plans
and asked hint If he had a proposition
to make ll offered to let tnn lia a
L 9
suit of clothi If I would exhibit my-
self in his shop a da > I accepted
The newspapers wrote me up and I
noon found that I could make money
by exhibiting mjsclf
Then 1 was engaged by proprietors
of various lines ot bun I neat to work for
them Home paid me 25 for three days
and I bavo got as high as 00 for u
week I traveled o er a greater part of
tho United States eerywhere exhibit-
ing my paper suit I rode on bicycles
and was paid for It by tho manufac-
turers Last February I sniled for Liv-
erpool on the Umbrla While on boaid
I sold my photographs I met an Lng
llshman on the ship who told me the
paper suit wouldnt do In the English
climate He gavo me the Impression
that It would be necessary to wear or-
dinary clothes I soon found that ho
was right and ordered some
I used to go about the streets In my
papnr suit No It didnt go so hard
as you might think Of course at Ilrst
It was a Uttlo embarrassing but 1 be
camo used to It A year ago I would
hae said that I coula not do what I
have gone through but now looking
back on It 11 seems cany enough
Ill Menu of AlaUlnic Mouey
When I left the United States I had
earned a large part of the 15000 fixed
by tho wager and 1 tarried n London
until I had completed the sum because
I realized that my native country and
Imsland and Germany were the only
countries I could depend on to con-
tribute to my support After my ex-
periences as newsbay lecturer and
sandwich man In London I had an
offer from a wine firm In France to
advertise Its products throughout tbat
country and in order to close the con-
tract took a flying trip across the chan-
nel to Paris I did not succeed In mak-
ing terms and went back to London
to ncctpt an engagement with the
Clalety lheater where I appeared be-
tween the acts of Little Christopher
Columbus
Thus engaged I was Introduced to
the representative of an KnglUh bank-
ing syndicate that was endeavoring to
obtain bonds to keep them out of the
hands of the Rothschilds and the
agent taking a liking to me secured
me as interpreter In the financial
scbeme for a trip through Germany
We went to Hamburg spending one
week thence to Ucrlln for three days
thence to Lelpslc and finally to Inns
pruch where we remained one day
Here we parted and X then moved Into
Switzerland
A short time only was spent in Switz-
erland and this remarkable roundthe
world tramp ever on the move was
soou In aenoa then along the coast
and through Florence and Home to
Espies At the latter place he went on
shipboard rounded the toe of the
boot by the traits of Messina and
plunged Into the Mediterranean bound
for Port Said and the Cues canal Thus
on from city to city and from coun-
try to country the tourist made his
way sometimes meeting with thrilling
experiences and again covering hun-
dreds of miles without encountering an
Incident worty of note until Anally
Han Francisco was reached Nxt e
vlHted Tacoma Seattle and ohers of
tbt WesUrn cities and arrived la
Minneapolis yesterday as at > d
Paul Jones has jet some 1500 miles
to travtl before i etching his journey a
end but there are still left nine of the
3i > 3 da > n stipulated for completing the
trip He has now fJUO of the specified
5000 and he Is confident that tin can
easily mako up the balance of the
amount and cover the intervening dls
tin ice between Minneapolis ami the
goal before his allotted lime has ex

New York Feb 8 Henry Oeorce
who has been for some time past quits
cent has suddenly started upon anoth-
er crusado In behalf of the single tax
thtorj That he has still a large bund
of aggrcrslve and enthusiastic follow-
ers was evidenced by the sympathetic
audience that crowded ChlcKenug hull
tonight to hear him Tho chairman
Introduced him as the greatest living
American and this fulsome eulogy
was accepted with loud applause by
the crowd Mr Ueorge himself be-
lieves that his thcoiy Is constantly
gaining new recruits and Is bound
voooner or Inter to ha accepted by the
whole country Ha said tonight that
the tingle tax idea Is stronger than
ever its friends imagined und he as-
serted that u majoilty of the inhabl
tants of this city accept it He based
this jclalm mainly on the largo vote
for tnojor which ho received lu 1816
and upon the fact that big as the ac-
corded vote was the actual vote cast
for him was much larger amounting
as he believes to a majority He al-
leged that ho was offered the mayor
allty nomination of the two Penio
cratlo factions In that campaign It he
would not run as thb labor candidate
but he preferred < s feat as the latter
to an assured election on the other
platform Mr George btgan his ad-
dress by Inviting Congressman Tom L
Johnson of Ohio who watf sitting in
the audience to a seat on the plat-
form Mr Johnson accepted and
seemed to enjoy the speech ery much
Mr Georges lirst words were m at-
tack on the president Thn money
power he said controls the president
the senate and the supreme court but
did not yet own the house of repre-
sentatives There is some real democ-
racy left theie as was sttown by the
defeat of the Itellly bill There was a
powerful lobby lis declared working
for this bill which included Mr Stet-
son Clevelands former law partner
and H Kllery Anderson who vas ap-
pointed by the president as govern
r J A i M k
ment director of the Union PaclncA
Mr George gavt > tho credit for the del
feat or the bill to G

Jerry Simpson and Tom Johnson Mr 1
C urges liatanguo was mainly de-
voted to tho tenement house reform
Question In its relation to the single
tax thcor Mr George believes that
tho single tax will destroy poverty And
thus tfulvo the tomment house prum
lem He was invited to addiess tha
tenement house reform mass meeting
In Coopers Union last week and did
so Hut he attacked the entlri
report of the Glider commission and
spoko eo eloquently of the single tax
that he come near capturing tho entire
meeting Mr Gcorgu having been sub-
jected to noma criticism for this per-
formance he called lonlghts meetlng

and explanation Ha invited Itlchard

divide the tmo with him Only Mr
Glider resonded and ho by letter Mr
Gilder wrote that he wan leaving town
by order of his physician and could not
be present Ho spoke kindly of Mr
George but said that if from prefer
enee forvhts pel theory he opposed
those immediate measures ot relief pro-
posed by the commission he was a
different man than ho had judged him
to he Mr George said In his speech
that It he had supported that report
he would have stultified himself and
that thero had been no concvaImentpt
