That Prince, Hinnery seems to be hav- in a good time." said MT. Hennessy.
 Hes havin' tn time iv his life" said MT. Dooley. Mot since tn Honezollern family was founded be wan iv tn ablest burglars iv tn middle ages has amy prince injyed such a spree as this wan. Ye see, a prince is a gr-reat man In tn or counthry but he nver is as gr-reat over there as he is here. Whin he's at home, he's something tn people can't help an they don't mind mm. He's like an iron lamp post. station'ry. ornymintal an useful to let people know where they are. But whin he comes to this home iv raypubhcan simplicity, he's all that tn wurrud prince wud imply an it implies more to us thin to amy wan else. l tell ye, we're givin' him tn best we have in tn shop. We're showin' him that what iver rivrince we may feel tow'rd George Wash'nton, it don't prejudice us again live princes. Tn princes we hate is t1im that are dead an harmless. We've ray ceived him with open arms, an I'll say this fir him. that fir German he's a good fellow.
 
 lived fir many years among tn Germans. I'm not prejudiced again thim, mind ye. They make good beer an good citizens an mod'rate polismen an tn are fond iv their families an cheese. Put wanst a German always Dutch. Ye cudden't make Americans iv thim if ye called thim all Perkins an brought thim up in Worce- ster. A German nfver raaly leaves Ger many He takes it with him wheriver he goes. Whin a Mayo man abscondS fir m his native counthry he becomes an Irish man an whin he Is four miles out at sea he is as much an American as Preserved Fish. But German is niver an Amer ican excpt whin he goes back to Ger many to see his rilitives. He keeps his own language, he plays pinochle, he de- spises tn dhrink iv tn counthry, his food is strange an he on'y votes f'r Germans fir office or if he can't got a German, fir somewan who's again tn Irish. I bet ye, if ye was fir to suddenly ask Schwartz meister where he is. he'd say: At Hock- heimer in Schwabia. He don't raaly know he iver come to this counthry. I've heerd him tallxin' to himsilf He always counts in German.
 But I say about Prince Hinnery that fir German he's all right an I'm glad he come. I hear he wrote home to his brother that is tn Impror over there Dear Willum: This is wonderful counthry, an they've give me perfectly killin' rayciption. I've almost died laugh sn' We was met forty miles out at sea be a band on a raft playin tn same plaz- in harmony fvry five miles till we got up to New York. 1 wisht had come over on . man-iv-war. In tn bay we wus sur rounded by a fleet of tugs carryin' rip risintatives iv- tn press sngin' tn Watch on tn Rhine. I rayceived sfveral offers through migaphone to write an article about what ye say in ye'er sleep rr tn pa-apers, but 1 declined thim awaitin inst functions firm ye. At tn dock we wus greeted be band playin tn Watch on tn Rhine an afther some delay, caused be tn Delioatessen Sanger bund holdin' us while they sung tn Watch on tn Rhine. we stepped ashore on gangplank neatly formed be tn gov'nor iv tn state holdin onto tn feet iv tn mayor. him clutchn tn iditor iv tn Staats Zeitung an so on, tn gang plank singh tn Watch on tn Rhine as we walked to tn dock.
 "T am much imprissed be New York I hate 1t. Tn buildings are very high here but tn language is higher If I was to go home now, ye wudden't know me. Afther I hear speech I don't dare to look in tn glass fir fear l might be guilty iv treason to ye, mein lieber. Our illustrious anct.thor, Fridrick tn Great, was a cheap a.i common man compared to me an ye, august brother. niver got by tn barrier. I hope I'll have time to cool down befure I get home or yell have to lock me up.
 They're givin' me tn fine line iv inter- tainment. Anywhere l go, thy'se music or something that does as well. I have a muscM inst hrument called a catastro- phone in inc room that plays the Watch on tn Rhine whin l go in at night an get up in tn morin. Whin I go out on tn sthreet. tn crowd cries Hook tn kaiser I wish they'd stop hockin' ye. dear brother. an hook tn Watch on tn Rhine. (This here is an American joke. I'm gettin' on fast) I'm goin' to be took to tn opry some night this week. They've dred a lot iv la-ads out iv their boxes Eto make room f'r me. Wan iv thim ob- 1estsd but hs vas fired annxhow.
