At all events, Queen Marie whisked him off to America with Princess 1leana, his sister, and while there Nicholas surprised everybody by com porting himself in a quiet and dig nif1ed fashion. The nearest he came to pulling a stunt was when he drove a locomotive engine, but this was gener- erally regarded as just so much good, clean publicity.
 The poppy Prince figured in a small traffic jam, forgotten overnight, in which he also conducted himself with complete sooriety. Very evidently he felt that he was on his good behavior and ought to put up proper front for Americans, who might have heard of some of his antics back home.

 The Prince, motor maniac since childhood, is fond of driving his low slung, high-powered roadster through the rough-cobbled. narrow streets of this city. The sound of his siren is signal that sends startled urchins scampering for the sidewalks safety. Defiant of all traffic regulations, he re- gently collided with a taxi, driven by Ion Daman. a law-abding chauffeur.
 As the two cars crashed, Nicholas few into a purple fury. Ahghting, he dragged Damian from his seat, kicked, struck and manhandIed the man; then tore off in a cloud of dust. The luck less Damian was given restoratives by ympathetic pedestrians and taken to
