"THE ROMANCE OF INDIA" +"
Prince sarafh GhOsh Lectures o,
Native Land at BeIaseo.

The romantic side OF India, the wonder
fully picturesque past and present Of this
mysterious country Of many millions Of
people, was described in colorful language
last night at the Belasco by Prince Sarath
Ghosh in his second lecture on his native
country.
The Romance of India" was the formal
title Of the lecture, which was an Intimate
discourse on the higher aspects Of Indian
life, the pecularities Of the Oriental Gus
toms, especially Of the different castles OF
society, probably the most hide-bound in
the world.
Many humorous references were made
to the marriage customs Of the people
and the difficulties encountered at any
love-making in Occidental fashion.
The pictures were brilliant, dealing
chiefly with the stupendous palaces OF the
Indian princes and the great Durbar.
Miles In length, sparkling in color, hun
dreds OF elephants, gayly decorated, and
countless people In vari-colored dress, the
Durbar pictures showing the English King
ana Queen leading the pageant. were ex-
tremely interesting.
