Mr. Neely Exhibited His Pictures and Lectured at the Capitol Building, Washington, D. C., before Foreign Affairs Committee.

F. Tennyson Neely, Publisher, Traveler, Lecturer, was born at Mount Pleasant, Florida, near the Gulf of Mexico. His early boyhood was spent on a farm near Salisbury, N. C. He abandoned his college course at Indiana University to enter the publishing business at Indianapolis. This business grew to branches in Chicago, New York and London, collapsing in the panic of 1898, sweeping away his entire fortune. Mexico appealed to him. The present war brought an end to all progress. He has intimate business relations in many sections of this interesting land, enabling him to speak with authority.

A FEW OPINIONS OF MR. NEELY.

Washington, D. C., March 14.—F. Tennyson Neely appeared at the Capitol before Committee on Foreign Affairs today and gave an illustrated lecture showing scenes of blood and pillage which stirred the committee greatly. In the series of photographs were many showing the shooting and hangings of the opposing parties—also pictures of pillage and siege with corpses of men, women and children and the burning of bridges and buildings.—
New York Sun.

He describes most graphically the appalling conditions existing in Mexico.—
Washington Herald.

Mr. Neely, fresh from Barbarous Mexico, relates such thrilling and daring experiences as are rarely heard. He has photographs which vindicate all his statements. There is probably not a man living today who knows so thoroughly the conditions throughout this barbarous land.—
Daily Press, Atlantic City, N. J.

Mr. Neely has set the press and public afire with his remarkable assertions. He verifies all his assertions by hundreds of thrilling and interesting pictures, talked of that blood-stained, revolution-ridden republic and of its people. It was a strangely interesting talk by a man who has been in the thick of things and whose soul is deeply seared by what he has gone through.—
Review, Atlantic City.

Mr. Neely's pictures and stories have thrilled large audiences throughout the week.—
Ohio State Journal, Columbus, O.

Mr. Neely proved himself a brilliant orator at the Majestic Theater, Chicago.—
The Billboard,

Most sensational and realistic pictures ever shown.—
Wynn, in Variety, May 15, 1914.

Mr. Neely is a red-blooded American, with a pungent power of spontaneous speech, which rises to dramatic eloquence. He is a rapid-fire talker, of the strenuous type, and prefers Theodore Roosevelt's style of doing things.—
Atlantic City Review,

Press and public pronounce Mr. Neely's lecture the star of the Chautauquas.—
Star-Courier, Kewanee, Ill.

The motto of all rulers has been: He may take who has the power, and he may hold who can. Better let the blood boil than spill.

Most Amazing Pictures of Barbarous Warfare in the World's History. By ONE WHO KNOWS.

F. Tennyson Neely on World Tour Tells of Savage Warfarc.

THE DEMAND—THE REPLY.
Emperor Josef of Austria to King Peter of Servia—You must quell all Pan-Servian demonstrations in your kingdom, suppress all Pan-Servian publications and jail agitators who espouse their cause, and give the utmost assistance in your power to the Austrian army officers whom I shall send into your country to arrest, try and convict those of your subjects who were implicated in the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand, heir to the thrones of Austria and Hungary.

THE REPLY.
I promise to crush the Pan-Servian movement in my kingdom, to jail agitators who preach revolt against your empire and to suppress the publications that abet them in their aims. To permit Austrian army officers, however, to enter my kingdom, jail, try and condemn my subjects, amenable to the laws of my kingdom and who owe no allegiance to Austria, would be an insult to the national honor of Servia to which I, as ruler, would never submit.

War was declared.
