RAJAI IAJAGAN OF KAPURTHALA-BE
wILDERED BY THE WORLDS FAIR.
Wandering on foreign shores far from the lana
of his fathers and the home OF his waiting bride,
the young Nawab Of Rampur, now seventeen ysars
old, Is being put through the last stages Of his
education to fit him to rule his 100000 subjects
in a manner which shall be pleasing to his mis-
tress Victoria, Empress of India. II he had been
left to his own choice he might not have under.
taken a journey round the world. at least for the
present. With an income OF Sl.5oo0oo year he
might have found plenty to interest and amuss
him at home. But Nawabs are no longer absolute
monarchs governed only by their whims. The
theory that the ruler exists for the people quite
as much as the people for the ruler has entered
India with the British. and young Indian poten-
tates and heirs apparent must now be educated for
the good of their subjects.
II is the Intention of the Nawab (Which means
the same as nabob) to visit all the points Of spe-
cal interest in and about this city but he spent the
day Yesterday quietly resting at the Windsor
Hotel and unpacking his baggage, much OF which
was sent directly from San Francisco to this city,
The party rose about O'clock and the Naval
ate a substantial breakfast OF eggs mutton chops

Tho Nawab will visit the Stock Exchange ana
and will drive over the Brooklyn Bridge in Tho

ington and Philadelphia tomorrow and Monday.
Roth the Nawab and Captain Colvin have been
disturbed by the published statement OF a member
OF their party that the Nawab was more dis
tinguished man than the Rajai OF kapurthsla,
and was entitled to a salute of thirteen guns from
the British garrlsons while the Rajai got only
eleven guns Captain Colvin said last evening that
the question of relative rank would never have
been raised by the Nawab or himself, and 40 far
as he knew both princes were entitled to the same
salute The States of Rampur and Kapurthals
were on the most friendly terms. he said
Kampur Is one OF the native States Of India con.
ouered by the British, and Is In the Rohilkhand
division of the northwestern provinces. Its area Is
about 9i5 square miles, much Jess than that Of
Rhode Island which has 1896 square miles. With
the exception OF Massachusetts,. Rhode Island 10
the most densely populated State In the Union.
and Is surpassed In this respect by few districts In
Europe. Yet it has less than half the population Of
Rampur. The economy Of a republican form Of
government Is illustrated in the fact that Rhode
Island pays its Governor 1900 year, while the
Nawab OF Rampurs income is million and
half.
The education Of the Nawab has been under the
death Of his father five years ago. and the British
Government has directed that he travel around the
world previous to his marriage. Nine months are
allotted for the Journey and In that time the
Prince must all the wonders OF China. Japan

that he was simply bewidered at the Worlds Fair,

bewilderment Is not the principal result Of bid
