CHICLING WORLD IN 40 DAYS Fnvrh Newspaper Man Is On the Last Lap of Great Trip. Alter a busy morning of sightseeing in New York, Andre JagerSchmidt, the Paris reporter who hopes to get back to his office before 2 o'clock next Saturday, thereby finishing a tour of the globe in leas than forty days, sailed for Cherbourg Saturday at 1 o'clock on the leviathan Olympic. Capt. Smith, commander of the vessel, said the Olympic would ajtphor ?in Cherbourg harbor about 7 o'clock Friday night, but it is believed a special endeavor will be made to reach the French port earlier than that. Jager-Schmidt will Ka ? ** ? ? - A * * * <.un.cu on ou a tug aua nurnea ashore, where either an aeroplane or a high-powered automobile will be waiting to speed him on to Paris. The trip through the air should not take more than three hours; by auto the distance can be done in five. There is thus a fair prospect that Jager-Schmidt will finish his Journey in thirty-nine days. That he will do it within the forty-day limit seems certain. "I don't think." said the Frenchman to a reporter for the NewYork World, "I shall ever try the round-the-world trip again, at least not for a record. If I go around once more, unless it be for the call of duty, 1 shall take my time and see things 1 did not see on this trip. "After all, I saw but little of the world. A flying trip through Europe, traversing a little of France, a little of Germany, a little of Austria, all the breadth of Russia and Siberia, and then across Japan, British Columbia and Canada, with a flvinir trin thrnmrh ^ " * I' Vermont and New York, that is! all. When one thinks of the1 many countries 1 have not ap-! proached at all it is a very small j thing to say one has been around the world. "So many have spoken to me! about the day 1 lost or grained in the Pacific 1 must explain that: 1 When we got to the 10th degree of longitude in the Pacific it was a i Monday, 1 think. Well, our days i of the week ran Sunday, Monday, j Antipodal Day, Tuesday Wednesday and so on. That was not , a i day In the week, yet it was twtfn-1 ty-four hours of time. They / call | the place where the thing ftccurc the Line of the Antipodes./ it is exactly opposite to the longitude of Greenwich observatory in England. y "But that did not jgive another day. In the first ^Ce my time is reckoned in Paris; and there, be- j tween July 17/ and AuguBt 26.! when I must, arrive, there are forty days, th^t is, including the *i i?hdon't lose or gain any time thei;e; ^ ig just forty times ^w?^y".our hours. ~P>d besides, if you think 11 a ?^d a day then, let me tell you | ~jjut I am losing it now on my way . yjme. It is the way. Ab one goes . east from the antipodal meridian or line, one keeps setting the /f watch so as to conform with local time. Now, i* is noon here in New York. Well, at the same momeet it is about 5 o'clock ? the afternoon at Paris. Now, if one could be transmitted instantaneously to Paris from here, one would, by a meridian time, lose five hours. Is it not so? Well, as 1 am going on, i am losing meridian time, so I the day that was inserted at the jiatipodal line is being made up for now. "Well good-bye, I hope to see more of New York again, I have had the best reception in New York of all the places 1 have visited. And I am a happy man to think my journey is nearly over, and that success is in sight. I will be able to report to my editor-in-chief, Monsieur, I have fulfilled my en-, gagement. What is there for me! to do now?" | Jager-Schmidt vaved his hat and "shot" with his camera as the! steamer backed out of her dock, j Friends, among them M. Ponsellej and Miss Leonora Oakfor, an ac- j tress, cried "Bon voyage." When he has finished his journey j Jager-Schmidt will have done more than (?00 miles a day for forty days, and kept up an average speed, night and day, of twentyfive miles an hour. The total cost of his trip, he reconed, will not exceed $2,500. TO BRIDOE FEE DUK RIVER. It Win lie for the Railroad and Not for the Public, However. Florence Times. A notice appears in the paper to j day for the incorporation of the Pee Dee Bridge Company. This is to be the bridge that is to carry the new road from Mullins to nosemary ana ueorgetown over the river, an J it indicates that work on that end of the road is to be pushed as rapidly as possible. If thgt bridge company could be induced to put a wagon way the on the bridge that they build, even if it had to be a toil bridge, the people of the two counties would rise up and call them blessed, but there is not much likelihood of that being done. There has been nothing done towards the uxtention of the road from Florence to the river, though the people of the county have volunteered to get the rights of way for the line if the company would Just assure them that th? road would be built when the rights of way were obtained. The whole of Florence county is vitally interested in the extension of the road to the river from this point but no movement is being made in the direction of getting it. The Q. and W. and the N. and 8. C. railroads are both building new roads to meet at the Pee Dee river opposite Savage landing. These roads run from Mullins and Andrews, respectively, and , while the two roads are operating under a different name there ar*1 those who say that in finance and control they are enough alike to be twins. The Georgetown and Western road is building from Andrews, about flfteeu miles from George town to the river and is practically there, with a great branch ex: tending through the country to Black river, a few miles above ' Kingstree, and about which there are most interesting rumors. The construction fprce is being put down to the hardest kind of rush work from Mullins to the j river on the upper side. There was 1 some work done on that end of I the iine by the road from Lumberton to Marion, the Raleigh and Cbkr'ifton, which seems, now to be a couii'u rcial waif, but may be taken ty the Seaboard at any time. The present owners, it is understood, a little extravagant in their views of what the road is worth or it would have been caught up by the Se:itoard fome time ago. There will be a ereat deal of riilroai- devtio^ment in this section it i:o p ii ic occurs in this section in tl>e next year. Stole a Dozen at Least The story is told by a traveling I man, says the West Plains, Mo., i Gazette, of a pretty young lady who ! stepped into a music store in I Springfield the other day. She tripped up to the counter where a new clerk was assorting music and in | the sweetest tones asked: "Have 1 you 'Kissed Me in the Moonlight?' " The lobster turned half way round and answered: "It must have been the man at the other i counter; I've been here only a week." What would a Dillon clerk have done? Notice.
