Carlson when he appeared at the east en-
trance of the Presidents official home last

the Queen of Denmark. Ii Is all mistake
about her proposed marriage to Mr.. Long

wore an opera hat, somewhat the worse for
wear; soiled white vest and a pair of
dove-colored trousers that were travel
stained. Instead of being admitted to the
White House he was escorted to the first
precinct station house. where insanity"
was placed opposite his name on the blotter.
The alleged Danish prince was examined
in his cell today by Police Surgeon Burch,
to whom he said he had met Miss Roose-
welt on one of the army transports at New
York and their engagement followed The
patient added that the matter had been the
occasion of considerable international cor
respondence between the governments of
Denmark and the United States and that
trouble would enSue unless the contract was
carried out. He will be sent to the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane and COM
munication forwarded to the New York adj

FROM SEA TO CENTER.
Lecture on Africa by Mr.. a. Z. Bridg-
man.

Mr.. II. L. Bridgman. manager OF the
Brooklyn Standard Union. lectured before
the National Geographic Society at the
National Rifles Armory last night on AT
RIGA from Sea to Center The lecture was
illustrated. Nearly all of the views shown
were colored lantern slides. and many were
Mr.. Bridgman's own work. But the title
was something of a deception. Somehow
Africa from Sea to Center rather sug-
gests trip up the Congo or march inland
from the Victoria falls But the talk last
night was largely on Egypt, the Nile and
the British occupation. Mr.. Bridgman was
a little late. but as he talked at an average
rate of $50 words 4 minute, he managed to
compress about 10000 words of lecture into
the space allotted to him.
The politics and the policy of the British
in managing the great domain of the khe-
dive WAS one of the points strongly brought
out. Mr.. Bridgman expressed great ad-
miration for Kitchener, Gen. Reginald VIM
gate and Chinese Gordon. of all of whom
he had pictures. He spoke particularly of
Gordon as a great soldier. a great admins
traitor and man of marvellous force ana
gentle greatness. He said that in the esti-
nation OF the English who know Egypt
Gordon occupies much the same place as
do Washington and Lincoln in the hearts
of Americans.
The Management of the Egyptian problem
presents, he said, much the same difhcQl-
ties that we are now dealing with in the
Philippines But Lord Cromer. he thought
was the man for the place, and when 1t
came down to the final decision there was
never any question as to who was the man
aging editor of the country, Lord Cromer
or the khedive.
The pictures were really a great series,
taking the traveller from Alexandria ana
Cairo up the Nile, past the ruined temple
of Isis. past the Assouan dam ana the
Second Cataract, showing the big dockyard
on the upper Nile, the railroad station ana
the town of Khartoum, the sepulcher OF
the mahdi at Omdurman and scenes in the
towns and missions and along the river
to the confluence of the Blue and the
White Niles.
1t was an interesting story well told and
superbly illustrated.
