ministry of the interior suffered rude
shock on the receipt of the last mail
from the Crown Prince. who is taking
a vacation from his duties In the MIN
istry. The Prince returned a bundle of
reports which had been sent him for
his perusal, with this message in plain
letters on the outside
Away with all this superflous scrib-
BILE. Friedrich wilhelm,
Grown Prince
The Prince, who has been studying
closely the work Of the ministry for
the last year, has all documents sent
to him, while he is away, in order to
keep in touch with the progress of af-
fairs.
He recently expressed the opinion
that the district sheriffs, who are COM
planning of overwork and demanding
the appointment Of deputies, are too
much occupied with unnecessary writ
ing, and his view Is confirmed by the
fact that the Crown Prince has been
compelled to spend a considerable por-
ton of his holiday in passing upon
trivialities that could have been attend
ed by others.
