Reference to Poker.
Berlin, March 1S.-In spite of the off,
cial from which general comment upon
the voyage OF Prince Henry brings down
upon any paper, there appears to be a
growing tendency to refer to 1t and to
askI what practical result it has accom-
plished. The hip -hoorahing has been
done and the Misunderstanding is over. The
practical German is asking: well, what
are we going to get out of it," Agrarians
storm away the harder. They say, Ger
many has done for America; now it is
the turn of America to do something for
U.S. The sober Taglische Runschau
writes about Americans, thinking Prince
Henry was a democratic prince" To
this the paper replies:
The American. it is well known. prides
himself in a very remarkable degree on the
facI that he does not allow himself to be
bluffed by any one or at any time AS a
member of poker nation he bluffs naturally.
But to-day it Is an open secret that Prince
Henry bluffed his friends and hosts In quite
an extraordinary way.
