Chicago Times: When his royal
highness the Prince OF Wales visited
Chicago, John Wentworth was mayor,
and one of the alderman vac Fernando
Jones. Mayor Wentworth mapped out
the programme OF entertainments for
the distinguished caller and his suite.
and each day during the royal soiourn
some one alderman was designated TO
head the procession. It came Alderman
Jones' day, and he took the party to the
grain elevators. Mayor Wentworth was
in the midst, for he went every day as
the generalissImo, the alderman being
merely the master OF details. The
largest elevator OF that time was the one
still standing near the Illinois Central
station. The hlooded visitors and the
escorts inspected thoroughly. Alder
man Jones directed the gaze OF his high
ness to mammoth hopper filled with
the golden cereal OF the northwest. His
highness was then an overgrown lad
who retained some hoyieh manners.
There never was boy who when he
looked into depth did not spit in it.
The Prince OF Wales gezed into this
great depth OF wheat and ,unoonseiously
perhaps, he spat in She hopper.
Mayor Wentworth was standing some
distance from the scene, but he called
out SO that everyone in the party heard
it: "Ssy, prince, your highness, yon
mustn't spit III that wheat. Don't do
that again, please"
Not only the prince but everybody
present roared. Mayor Wentworth then
came around to the hopper and apollo
glzed to his highness. A gentleman who
was present and heard this apology re-
peated IL to me to-day, as nearly as he
could remember it.
Mr.. Wentworth said: "Your highn ess
