Speaking of tho Prince of Wales reminds rae of a good thing iu which a New Yorker a well known one, too figured to some extent ex-tent The prince had been down at the docks somewhere, "opening" a school, or hospital, nd was leisurely walking lack in tho direction direc-tion of St. Paul's in company with his son, Albert Victor, alias "Collars and CuiVs." There wns quite a crowd behind tho roynl pair, but tho policemen on duty succeeded in keeping them at n respectful distum Tho New Yorker, wk hud just em-'rgM from Short's place, saw tbo prince and walked up to him with a smiling fuee. "How do, yer highness. I'm CoL from New Y'ork. Glad to see you." The prince, who is rather a good narured fellow and enjoys a joke, extended his right hand with the remark: "I'm well, colonel. I'm also happy to meet you." The policemen were dumfounded, the crowd immediately revered tho colonel and that unabashed personago walked proudly away. London Cur. New York Press. j- - -.v 0 --4 |
