out into the state Of New York there
were crowds at the stations, anxious tC
see the prince and tender assurances OF

At Buffalo Mayor knight welcomed the
prince, and the local German singing So

utes later it was steaming out to Niagara
Falls. At Niagara Falls station the prince
was met by Mayor Butler and a large
reception committee and formally bid
den to the city.
When Mayor Butler concluded, DIR.
William Snyder spoke in behalf of the
Germans of the city. The prince did net
make speech in response, but thanked
both of them for their greeting.
The prince was then driven to the Can
adam side of the falls accompanied ty
mounted escort, made up of local mill
tia officers. Midway on the bridge which
spans the rapids the prince was met by
the man who spoke for the Canadian
government and people. Maj. f. S.
Maude, military secretary for Lord
Mimic, governor general of Canada, pre-
sented the formal greeting of his chief,
and the Hon. r. Harcourt, minister Of

behalf of the municipality of Berlin, Ont.
and f. Bopp, German consul at Montreal,

The prince thanked the Canadians for
their cordially, and leaving his Ameri-
can military escort behind, was driven TO

As his carriage turned up toward the
falls, Mayor Butler, who, with Admiral
Evans, was driving with him, said TO
him: There at the gallery is the best
view of the American falls, but on &C.
count of the snow you cannot get it,"
You may not be able to climb across
there, but am going to- said the prince.
Tries to Rob Fighting Bob.
The prince jumped out of the carriage
and climbed through the snow drift to
the gallery on the ledge over the rapids,
where he showed the way. Others fol-
lowed, and soon Their was little crowd
with him. Col. Percy Sherwood, chief
of the Dominion police of Canada, was
on hand with force Of his men, and
they closely guarded the prince during
his stay on the Canadian side. After
viewing the American falls the prince
| was driven to Table Rock.
The prince was driven back to the town
| of Niagara Falls, and there transferred

man, you'll find my purse in another
| pocket

to turn the thief over tosthe police. A
