EO. P. BENT, of Chicago, accom-
panied by his wife, left yesterday for
Europe by the steamer ''Nebraska,'' of the
Allan Line. This steamer usually takes
fourteen days in crossing the "big pond,"
and for that reason was selected by Mr.
Bent—it compels him to rest.
When Mr. Bent is on the briny sea, it
is needless to say that street or railway
conveyances are not very handy, hence he
is compelled to confine his peregrinations
to the main deck, provided, of course, he
does not become a victim to the bete noir
of the tourist, mal-de-mer.
During a call at our sanctum Wednes-
day, Mr Bent stated that after reaching
Glasgow he would journey to Edinburgh,
and from there to London, where he will
meet Mr. Primer. After exploring Great
Britain's capital, he will journey through
the Continent as far north as St. Peters-
burg and as far south as Geneva.
Although his trip is largely one of rest
and recuperation, yet he is certain to do
some effective propaganda work for the
"Crown" during his journeyings. As this
is Mr. Bent's first trip abroad, he will no
doubt find it very interesting to contrast
European and American methods of manu-
facturing, and his conclusions thereon can-
not fail to prove valuable. Mr. Bent will
return about the first of September.
