The Sailor Prince.

frllce w llueIlu IL tue 6eCOuu SUI
Of the crown prince of Sweden. He
is known as the sailor prince having
taken up the naval profession. The
real object of his coming to America
has nothing to do with Newport. His
grandfather, King Oscar. has sent him
President Roosevelt, who desired g.
Swedish representative to visit the.
Jamestown Tercentennial exposition.
Charles w. Kohlsaat, European COM
missioner for the exposition, presented
the invitation at the Swedish court.
AS war vessel also was desired for
display in Hampton Roads. opposite
the exposition, the king appropriately
assigned the sailor prince, who is a
lieutenant on the Swedish cruiser
Fylgia, fine new vessel which has
been rushed to completion so that it
might arrive in time to take part in
the festivities Of Swedish week at the
exposition. beginning Aug. 10 and con-
tinuing to Aug. "a.
The prince, of course, is docketed for
various banquets at the Jamestown eX-
position and likewise in New York and
Newport. BY the time he leaves Amer
lea he will have discovered one potent
fact-namely, that in the United States
the injunction to eat, drink and be mer-
ry applies to princes as we'll as to pie
beians and plutocrats.
In Love With a Princess.
In his own right Prince Wilhelm Is
quite an interesting young fellow. He
is in love, and with very pretty prin-
! ! cess The further fact that this prin-
cess, whose title Is grand duchess and
whose name is Maria Pavlovna, Is a
Grst cousin Of the car Of Russia adds
largely to the interest Of the outside
world in this romance. Only two
months ago Prince Wilhelm surprised
his fellow Swedes and everybody else
by announcing his betrothal to the fair
young Grand Duchess Maria. 1t seems
that the young prince accompanied his
mother on visit to the latter's rela-
tires at Karlsruhe and took occasion
to continue along to Moscow and St.
Petersburg. On this trip he met The
beautiful seventeen-year-old daughter
OF the Grand Duke Paul, and the sailor
prince saw light that never was on
sea or land. The result is that he Is
building a modest mansion for the flu
ture Mrs. Prince Wilhelm. That Is
merely an immediate result. This
forthcoming union may be big with
political possibilities.

Finding an empty third-class com

round his neck. stuffed handkerchief
into his mouth, pitched his empty
purse onto the opposite seat and. H-
ing down, first had a sleep and then.
when Paris was reached. refused to
give any sign of life till the alarmed
sta-ion staff poured a cordial into his
mouth
Then he was taken 10 a hospital.
