The Prince is a Good Fellow.

C. B. Metcalfe, one of the local represen-
tativeS of a British bark, says the New
York Sun, tells this story relative to Prince
George: "a chum of mine," he said, was
at one time first officer on one OF the PENN
suar and Oriental line steamships A few
days out from London his ship fell in with
the British man-of-war Bacchante from
Colombo. AS is customary In such cases the
Peninsular ship stopped to take such mail as
the officers and sailors on the man-of-war
might have ready to post. A small boat put
out from the Bacchante with the mails in
charge OF a midshipman. That midshipman
was Prince George, who was serv-
ing his first term, so to speak,
as an officer in her majesty's navy.
He came on board, delivered his mail,
and was about to return to the Bacchante
when my friend, who was in charge of the
ship at the time, invited him below to have
refreshments. The midshipman accepted
gracefully, and ate biscuit with q brandy
and soda accompaniment with such evil
dent appreciation of the courtesy that the
first officer was led to enter into converse
ton. He began with a dreadful break.
by the way he remarked, you've got
Prince George on board, haven't youl
What bore that must be. / should hate
to serve on a ship wi b him suppose he's
nasty particular, isn't he, and makes the
men stand roundP The midshipman laughed
quietly. We'll, | think not. he replied, Pm
p Ut certain, don't you know Pm Prince
ieorge.' The first officer had the sense
neither to hem and haw nor apologize.
After startled instant he said: We'll,
let's have another and the prince proved
TO be a flrst-race fellow by accepting and
turning the first officers embarrassment
into laughter"
Other people here who know something
about Prince George say that he is averse
to ostentatiOn, and that II he knew what a
TODD was 70 be made over him at Newport
he would avoid going there AZ all. They
say bis chief delight socially is 10 mingle
with good fellows, smoke and exchange
stories.

SURGEON GENERALo OF THE ARMY
a Lively Contest for the Place is Now
Going On.
From the Neto York Sun.

From the NetC York Sun.
The contest for the nomination of surgeon
general of the army incidentally develops
the usual opposition to DR.. Billings, who is
am itious of appointment. DR.. Billings,
although the best known officer in the medi-
cal rps, is junior to sixteen colonies and
fourteen majors, and he would, if appointed,
barring casualty, occupy the surgeon
generalcy until 1902. Maj George M. Stern
berg, the third major in the corps, has pre-
pared a formal protest to Billings appoint
ment, and sets forth his own claims to the
place. This protest he circulated among DR..
Billings seniors, but secured only one sigma
ture, for while many would sign the pro-
test, they do not propose to petition in favor
of DR.. Sternberg. The single signature is
that Of an officer who is awaiting retire
ment DIR. Sternberg aud DR.. Billings have
not been on good terms. The former regards
himself as a candidate through the
distinction of his recent selection by tina
President TO examine the reputed discovery
by a Brazilian physician Of the yellow fever
germ. DR.. Sternberg has made a life study
of bectology, and detail in Baltimore WAS
given him that he might avail himself of
the Johns Hopkins medical school labora-
tory. He also received compensation from
the Hoagland laboratory of Brooklyn, n.
Y, of which institution he is director. DIR.
Sternberg has many friends, and they can
be counted on to personally oppose DR..
Billings, while the latter's trouble with the
American Medical Association assures the
loss of support of half the physicians of the
country. The opinion Of the medical Of
fcers stationed in Washington is that the
next surgeon general will be either DIR.
Baxter, Dr. Page or DR.. j. L. Smith. DR..
Billings has gone to Europe. and before he
left he said to friend that he left no fences
to be attended to.

Just about midnight the other TDAt
