Sol" but "Come!"

Prince Henry of Prussia is an ar
dent sailor, says PearsOn's Weekly,
but he is known among the bluejack-
cts as a great martinez, and they fear
rather than love him. The following
story is typical of his methods, ana
shows that, although he expects those
under his command to put up with all
kinds of hardships, he is by no means
above "roughing it, himself.
One day, when he was on board
warship in the North sea, he suddenly
gave the order, "All hands to battle.
It was a bitterly cold day and the
water was like ice. The order was SO
evidently distasteful that one of the
officers ventured to make mild pro
test to the prince Without answering
him a single word, Prince Henry, al
though fully clothed. sprang over the
vessels side, swan out a good dis
lance in the icy water, and returned
to the deck dripping from head L
foot.
After that, the sailors took thei
bath without demur.
