A LIVELY PRINCE.
Something About the Personality Of
Andreas Of Greece.

Something ABOUT the PerSonal1ty OF
Andreas Of Greece.
A friend in Athens has furnished
me some interesting details concern
ing Prince Andreas Of Greece, whose
engagement with Princess Alice Of
Battenberg has created such general
surprise and congratulation, says a
Berlin letter to the London Sketch
The young prince is the liyeliest of
the four sol of the Grecian royal.
couple. He was baptized after the
slame Of the celebrated Hellenic phi
lanthropist, Andreas Syhgros, and he
apparently received from his god.
father a spirit Of outspoken patriot
ism. When quite a boy he insisted on
employing the Greek language. 10
a comrade who, during playtime in
the royal gardens, addressed him in.
French he administered a thrashing,
which he wound up with the com-
mand: ,"Speak your mother tongue
in future!" On the occasion of the
marriage of his eldest brother, the
crown prince, with the princess
Sophia Of Prussia, young Andreasoc-
cupied a prominent place in the
church; but he found the service
wearisome, and endeavored to amuse
himself by making a windmill Of his
straw hat, to the great embarrass-
ment Of his neighbors. The furious
glances directed at him by the queen
he pretended not to observe. Final
ly, he sat himself, Turkish fashion,
, on the carpet Of the aisle and con-
: tinued whirling his hat. A sounding
box Of the ear from Prince George
ended this performance and induced
the boy prince to resume a standing
posture. Notwithstanding his live
illness he passed successfully through
the cadet school as his brothers did
before him; that is to say, he received
his instruction privately, but attend
ed all the drill exercises of the in
stitution. On leaving school he en-
tered the cavalry regiment which is
garrisoned at Athens, and the regu-
lar performance of his duties as lieu
tenant was interrupted only by the
summer vacations, when he invaria-
bly, accompanied the king and queen
on their journeyings. Prince An
dreas, who is an excellent horseman,
is honorary president Of the Eques-
trian society which for the past two
years has managed all the races and
other equestrian displays in Athens,
He is to spend the coming year al

sian dragons. AT the close Of thai
period his marriage with Princes:
Alice will be solemnizcd.

WANTED HER SIGNATURE.
Ticket Sharps Make Fraudulent Use
Of an Actress Autograph.

There was a temporary boom in
Grace George autographs in New
York that kept the actress rather
busy for a while, says the Philadel-
phia Public Ledger. Although the
autograph a is popularity sup
posed to have died out, there still are
many persons who collect, and Miss
George has been in the habit Of re-
ceiving two or three requests for her
signature every day. Recently there
were ten, and Miss George wondered
if all the seminary girls enjoying hol-
idays had visited the theater.
When this number suddenly
jumped to 46 on Tuesday, however,
Miss George INDUCED in that contor-
tionistic feat popularity known as
"patting ones self en- the back"
There were over so letters from au-
tograph hunters Wednesday, and
then Miss George could contain her
self no longer.
GIVE had more than a hundred re-
quests for signatures since Monday"
she said exultantly to William A.
Brady. "Isn't that a sign Of success!
Doesn't that look as though my au-
tograph were worth something's"

Brady, dryly. "Well, I should say it
was worth something! It's worth 81

RENDEZVOUS FOR CRANKs.
Samples Of the Queer People Who
Haunt the White House.

g, nduuI luC FNA4IS AOuSCs .ra
Nearly all the attaches of the white
house at the north door have been
on duty there for years and theyre-
members many cranks who have been
there in former years.
When Mrs. Cleveland was in the
white house in Nh. Cleveland's first
administration all. the female cranks
in 1.-THE country wanted to see her, says
the Washington Star. One day a
queer-looking little woman walked
UP to the north door. In the ends
Of a shawl she wore was swaddled a
very old, toothless, half-blind skye
terrier. Il am Cleopatra, youknow,"
she said, with an attempt at queenly
dignity. The doorkeeper bowed with
reverence. 81 am going to visit the
tombs Of my ancestors in the Pyra-
mids shortly" she said, "and I want
to leave Mrs. Cleveland poor Char
mion. The pyramids are so damp |
fear Charmion will take a cold if I
take her along with me-" The door
keepers felt sorry and studied hard
for a way out of the affair. They
didn't want to take the dog for fear
that the woman might call often to
inquire about it..
"Mrs. Cleveland authorizes us to
say that to accept so valuable a pres
ent from Cleopatra would be beyond
the laws of the white house." an off
cial said. "and she recommends that
your highness provide yourself with
aphysiciantoguard Charmion against
colds and take her along with YOU"
The little woman's face filled with
a new thought and she went away
happy.
An eccentric-who called at the
white house during President Harri-
sons administration put his right
hand to his hip pocket ON entering
the front door. His arms were
promptly pinioned to his side by Of
ficials who thought he was about to
I take out a pistol. The nan looked
surprised when the d%oorkeepers felt
his back pocket and found no wea-
pom. 81 came here on a mission of
philanthropy" he said. 81 am told
that the president is cold, cold man:
/ brought this to him to enable him
to keep warm" He pulled out a
small red flannel undershirt, two
inches long by an inch wide. and SOL
EMMY handed it over to a doorkeep-
er. The man was satisfied and went
away. The d%oorkeeper handed it to
Gen. Harrison later. "I have always
known that my stature was not pro-
digious, but | did notknowI had been
]reducedto those dimensions. is what
President Harrison said.
