LONDON, March 3O-With the
Prince of Wales return from the
Riviera, the announcement is made
that the Princess of Wales is going
to Copenhagen next week on
visit to her parents, the King and
Queen of Denmark. This has start
ed gossip afresh and has brought
into prominence the fact that the
Prince and Princess of Wales sell
dom remain in the same country to-
gether. The princess has spent very
little time in England during the
past two years. incidentally it is
alleged that the Prince of Wales
will soon pay another visit to the
Earl and Countess of Warwick, the
latter being more generally known
as the famous beauty, Lady Brooke,
her former title.
During the stay of the Prince of
Wales at the Riviera his partially
for Americans, especially for Amer
lean ladies, was again remarked
with many ill-natured comments
from eXpectant Britishers lowering
near. Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Win
slow and Mr.. and Mrs. Ogden Goe-
let seem to be on c--5 of init
macy with the prince, a privilege en-
joyed by but few English people
In the Prince of Wales set much re-
gret is expressed that the gale of
Saturday last did much damage in
the grounds of Sandringham palace,
the residence of the prince. 1t is
said that the loss through the storm
will foot up over $4,000. Among
the trees blown down were some
planted by the Prince of Wales him
self, which had special historic inter-
est.
INFLUENZA
Is no longer a startling feature of
London, although many victims of
the epidemic are still on the, debat-
able ground between recovery and
relapse.
The Lancet and the British Medi-
cal Journal both announce that Lord
Rosebery has gained strength great
ly, and he was able this week to sleep
without the use of narcotics. At
the same time, it is learned from a
most excellent source that the pre-
mier'S physicians are much alarmed
on account of the fact that his
stomach has given out, and that his
system refuses to respond to stimu-
lants. On the top of this the premier
insists upon attending daily to GER
tain business which makes the stu
alton unfavorable to recovery Both
the Lancet and the British Medical
Journal finally admit that the Duke
of York, heir presumptive to the
throne, is suffering from a mild
form of influenza.
A subscription has been opened
by the Pail Mall Gazette, and a
number of artists are contributing to
the fund.
An interesting point which has
arisen in connection with the Ok
ford-Cambridge boat race, and one
which will interest college men in
all countries, is the cost of sending
crew to Putney from the great
universities. A representative of the
Associated Press during the week
asked this question of Rev. w. E.
Sherwood, master of Magdalen col
lege school, honorary treasurer of
the Oxford University Boat club; a
member of the Oxford crews of 1878
and 1874, and one of those admiral BILE
divines who do not find preaching a
bar against an ardent love of honest
sport. He said the crew for Putney
costs about $500. The revenue of the
o. U. B. c. comes from three sources
