PRINCE OF WALES TO GO ABRoAD1
Rumor Is Circulated That He and Prin-
cess Win Pay Visit to South Africa.

The Prince and Princess of Wales,
should they carry out the intention with
which they are credited of paying a
visit to South Africa, will add another
to their record of things which no prince
or Princess of Wales have done before.
The first prince of the blood to visit
South Africa was the Duke of Con-
naught. Prince Arthur of Connaught
made a brief appearance there, in his
regimental capacity, toward the finish
of the war. As Prince George of Wales
the present heir apparent and his broth
err, the late Duke of Clarence saw Cape
Town in their midshipman days, when
the Baechante touched there.
