PRINCE HENRY.

Washington, Jan. 15.-All evidence
concerning the manner in which Pres
ident Roosevelt regards the action of
the Kaiser in deciding to send Prince
Henry of Prussia as his personal rep
resentative at the launching of the
new imperial yacht points to a great
feeling of qualification on the part of
the Pesident over the coming of the
German Emperor's brother to these
shores. Mr.. Roosevelt, like most of
his advisors, attaches considerable i'm
portance to the Kaiser's action, and
there is general feeling in admins
tration circles that the relations be-
tween Germany and the United States
will be strengthened through Prince
Henry's visit.
The marked compliment paid to the
President by the Kaiser in the invi-
tation to Miss Roosevelt to christen
the imperial yacht, has paved the way
for generous and cordial reception
of the Prince, who, despite the I'M
dertsanding that he will not visit
America in an official capacity, will
be treated with distinguished honor
by the executive government
1t is the understanding among the
members of the cabinet that when
Prince Henry comes to Washington
and that he will come is regarded
as foregone conclusion-he will be
the guest of the German ambassador
Herr Won Holleben, who has fine
residence on Massachusetts avenue
which is owned by the German gov
eminent. 1t was said today that even
if Prince Henry should become the
official guest of the nation and the
personal guest of President Roosevelt
it would be impossible to accommo-
date him and his suite at the White
House, which is too small for any
such purpose.
While no plan has been formed by
the administration in regard to the
honors to be shown Prince Henry,
there is an understanding between
the President and his advisors that
the imperial visitor will be met at
New York by officers of the army and
the navy and a representative of the
State department and the salutes due
to his rank as an Admiral of the Ger
man navy will be given him. He will
be escorted to Washington by the
army, the navy and the State depart
ment representatives, who will act as
his personal escort during his stay
in this country, and there will be a
dinner and perhaps ball or reception
at the White House in his honor. Be
yond that nothing has been determin-
ed or even suggested 1t is probable
that some warships will meet the
Princes vessel at Sandy Hook, and
escort it up the bay to New York.
But as cabinet officer said, there
is plenty of time to arrange pro-
gramme for the Princes visit.

was looking for the delicate thread you
see IN the bulbs of the incandescent cleo

here, but at last DIR. Kennedy came upon
the ingredients needed-the missing links.
The road was smooth after that, and be-
