A CLOSE OBSERVER.

THE YANKEE DRUMMER’S STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT EUROPE.

Information About London, Paris and Ger- many From a Big, Red Haired Man—He Says He Kept His Eyes Open—De You Think He Did?

‘“Greater New York is going to be bigger than London, ’’ remarked the lit- tle man in the cross seat with an air of wisdom.

‘*No, siree, it isn’t!’’ said the big red aaired man who sat alongside of him as he dusted an invisible speck from his new coat. ‘It won’t be a marker to London. I've been there.”’

‘*What—to London?”’

‘‘Sure, I have. It was three years ago, and 1 know what I’m talking about. Now, it’s a strange fact that there are some fellows in our business that'll travel all around and nevel see a1y- thing. I always keep my eyes open in strange towns. It gives a man things to talk about and it broadens him.”’

The little man began to eye his com- panion with new interest. He pondered his sage words for a minute and said:

‘*How’d it happen?’’

““Why, it came about just after I left you at St. Louis. I returned to New York and brought back with me $60,000 worth of orders. That pleased the firm, I can tell you, for no one was doing any business in those days. Our foreign buy- er was ill and as I was pretty well pest- ed on what the trade wanted the firm said to me:

‘**Here, Jones, you go over to the continent and do our buying this win- ter.’ Did I go? Well, doesa duck swim?”

‘*Wkere did you go?’ asked the little man.

‘*London, Paris and Germ’ny.”

“Say, what kind of a town is London anyway? I’ve always wanted to know.”’

**Well, I'll tell you on the level. It’s a bum, two foracent place. It’s no good, and that’s straight. I’ve been there. Don’t you let anybody fool you about it. You can read all of this jubi- lee stuff you want, and if any one tells you London is any good you just tell bim that Jones said it was on the bum.”

The little man’s face brightened up, evidently from the delight of getting authoritative statements first hand, and, with the air of a man who wanted to improve each shining hour and add to his stock of knowledge, he said:

‘‘Teil me about London. Is it any- thing like New York?’

‘‘Not a bit. 1 knowall about the town. It’s 25 years behind the times. It’s like New York was before the war. Why, honest, now, there are whole rows of houses that look like they were falling down. The streets are dirty and

crooked,.and all houses are built flush with the street. I couldn’t do any busi- vess there at all. They are a saving lot, those English.”

‘*Did you see any fine buildings?”’

‘‘Not one, except a church or two. Now what I’m telling you is honest. There isn’t a building in the whole town worth seeing, and if there was you couldn't see it halt the time. It's a dirty, foggy place and not fit to live in. It's an old apple woman of a town. Ev- erybody in London drinks ale or gin. I’m telling you straight, it’s on the bum. ’’

**Paris is bigger, isn’t it?’’

**Well—er—no. Not exactly bigzer.

London is a whaling big place and don't you make any mistake. 1 rode

right straight ahead one day from 7 i tue morning until 2 in the afternoon,

and ! was in London all the time. Par- ,

asked his friend what he had seen there. ‘‘Now you are getting right inte my stamping ground,’’ said the big man. “Germany beats them all Berlin, and, say, I bought a line of sat- inets there that netted the firm $70, 000. Now, what do you think of that? Was not that a good stroke? Germany is my stamping ground!’’ ‘‘What interested you there?’ “Why, I saw everything, and how If I hadn’t been afraid that those satinets would go out of fashion, I'd have made a bigger stroke on them. Now, don’t you let any one fool you about those places. Just come to me and I'll put you straight. I tell you | believe in traveling with my eyes open. What’s the good of traveling if youdon't learn something? I'll be out on the road in a month, and perhaps I'll run across you. Here’s my station Goodby, old maa.’’—New York Sun.
