white moire silk. Within were eight
pages of vellum. on the first of which

The princess received it in person. She
expressed her pleasure in accepting
such pretty memento.
The delightful air outside tempted
the princess out of doors for last look
at New York before her departure for
Chicago. She chose an outing on the
water. of which she is most fond, and,
at $50 p. m, started for her carriage
on the arm of Commander Davis, who
was in full uniform. She was followed
by the prince, the duke and the
marchioness.

Savoy the princess made 0ffe of her de-
lightful breaks in the ceremonies OF
the occasion. She saw a bright-eyed
little boy of about years old in the
lobby of the hotel, and dropping the
arm of Commander Davis, rushed over
to the child, clasped it in her arms and
kissed it, saying as she did 50: ''Oh.
my beautiful child. You're Just like
my own little boy" Then the princess
said to the members of the party:
isn't he pretty boy?" The father and
mother of the child, Mr.. and Mrs. Ham
cock, stepped forward and Commander
Davis presented them. The princess
shook hands with each of them and
told them that the child reminded her
of her own boy at home. Then she
took the arm of Commander Davis and
walked through the line of footmen
and policemen and entered her car
riage. Lieut.. Com. buckingham, Of
the Dolphin, in civilian clothes. rode
with the marchioness. The party
drove down Fifth avenue to Twenty
sixth street and to the East river,
where the Dolphin was lying at an
chor.

travelling incognitio, and the usual
naval ceremonies were omitted. No
salute was fired. and her standard was
not raised on the Dolphin as usual.

under way at $3.50 and steamed down
the river, around New York bay and
mp the Hudson to YonkcrS. and down
