hearing afresh the story Of the battles.
resumed his journey to the north and
west. Leaving Chattanooga over the
Nashville, Chattanooga & ST. Louis
railroad, his train ran through a corner
OF Alabama. and then turning to the
north, hurried across Tennessee with a
short stop at Nashville, through Ken
lucky with brief stays at Louisville and
Bowling Green. and up into Indiana to
another brief halt at indianapolis.
At Indianapolis the course was
changed to the westward again, and on
the tracks Of the Nandalia line his
train is tonight on the road to St
Louis His reception at the south was
hospitable and demonstrative. The ne
grOes manifested great curiosity as to
the prince, and they interested and
amused him.

uniformed staff standing about, made
an impressive group. The party was
photographed at the. peak, and one Of
The photographers, a local man, was
sharply rebuked by the prince.

way the prince stood, and in rather
loud tone repeatedly asked him to
change. The prince changed position
several times, but finally said: Il have
changed five times, I think. You VIII
take me right here If you care to. You
have had ses eFal photographs al
ready"
Later the prince told one of the del
egates that he was sorry ne had shown
any spirit but he was assured thar he
had ample cause to be annoyed, and
that there was no reason for either re-
gret or apology. The prince returned
to the city by the electric line over
which he had gone to the mountain.

zens.
