Prince Pu Lun paid touching tribute TO
the memory OF the late Benjamin Harrison

Hill Cemetery. II had been the intention
OF the royal visitors entertainers merely 10

city of silence and allow him TO view the
grounds from his auto. but when the prince
was notified of his presence at the grave
of General Harrison he insisted upon
alighting and then. in the solemn, impress
sive manner OF his country. he did honor
to the great mans undying fame. Those
Who were present were much touched by
GAis voluntary token of respect TO the dead.
His Highness spent comparatively quiet
day yesterday. taking a late luncheon in
his apartments at the Claypool, making a
short call on Wong Kai Kah afterward
and then visiting Fairview Park, Crown
Hill and the Country Club
Though the prince was not a guest at
Mr.. wong's for very long time. great
deal was done by way Of entertaining him.
The musical numbers which were rendered
during the afternoon greatly pleased his
Highness. and he became so enthusiastic
that he tried to render flute solo himself.
While the flute, in appearance. is similar
TO a Chinese instrument. upon which the
prince is an expert performer. his efforts
on the former instrument were not a de-
cided success. though they were greatly
enjoyed by the guests. DR.. Edward Bak.
OF Chicago played a piano SOLO; Mrs DR..
Gundefnger rendered a solo on the flute,
and Miss Julia Kantrowitz sang The final
number was a violin solo by DR.. Gundel-
