LISBON REPORTERS KEENLY QUESTIONED
 BY GERMAN PRINCE

LISBON, May 27.-(P)-The wife of the former Crown prince of Ger many, Princess Cecelie, accompa- nied by two of her sons, Wilhelm and Louis Ferdinand, passed re- gently thru this port on her way to the Canary Islands where she is to spend some of the summer months,
 The party endeavored to travel in- cognito on board the steamer Cap Nord, but Louis Ferdinand, impatient: at being denied the freedom 0. the ship, wandered out on deck one day and gave the secret away. The par ty occupied a suite uf rooms OH the upper deck, and all the members of the family kept much to themselves. This confinement bored Prince Louis, and he sought human contacts in the smoking salon. He attracted consid- erable attention, and finally a fellow traveller approached him and said How like you are to the second son of the Grown prince!"
 T have bene told this before" an- swered the young man, "but I must say I can't see it myself, and the idea does not please me, because I am a republican"
 The princes questioner, 2 felvent monarchist, protested and began to praise the royal family, whereupon the astute prince, who evidently had been sounding public opinion, dis closed his identity.
 Thus the incognito was broken, and after that the two boys mixed freely with many other passen- gers. Crowds of curious people lin ed the Lisbon docks when the Gap Nord arrived The German minister was among those who called on the princess, and a former German sol dier presented her with a bunch of lilacs.
 Prince Louis turned the tables on the reporters by Interviewing them instead of being interviewed. He showed special curiosity in ascertain ing the reason why Portugal had de- clared war against Germany, and if the Portuguese felt any anilnosity against his country.
 Replying as to whether he would accept the imperial crown if ever it was offered him, the prince said that the lives of kings and emperors consisted of great sacrifices and con- tinual efforts that were not recog- nized or appreciated; but that if ever his country needed him he was ready to make that sacrifice He begged the reporters to speak to him in any language but French, and chose Spanish for preference

American Puts Darwiinism
 In Same Class with Dodo

LONDON, May 27.-(P)-Assertion that Darwinism was as dead as the dodo," so far as it's being regard ed as a vera causa of the origin of species is concerned, was made pub lie recently by George McCready, professor of geology at Union Col lege, Nebraska, addressing the Vic toria Institute on Revelation and Evolution. Can they be harmon ized?"
 Professor McCready contended that the most hopelessly pessimistic of the worlds prophets were those who had most completely adopted and as simulated the doctrine of organic evo- lution. Such a scheme of cosmic despair, he said, was completely at variance with that portrayed in the Christians Bible.
 "The time has fully arrived for those who think for themselves and who do not entrust the keeping of their opinions to any set of supposed experts, to dismiss once for all the idea that man may possibly have arisen by a long drawn out process of development from preceding ami mai ancestors" said the professor. q am confident that in this year, 1925, sufficient scientific facts are available to settle this long debated problem in way entirely satisfac tory to the believer in the literal truthfulness of the first chapter of Genesis
