Met Notables.
Luminaries of the day Wed in pay
ing him honor. Charles Sumner, al
though In demand for the critical
political campaign, was assiduous
in personal attentions. Ralph Waldo
Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes
and Henry w. Longfellow were con-
spicuous among his attendants. The
Prince marked his appreciation of
Longfellow'S courtesieS some 18
years later by serving as chairman
of a committee which placed
memorial to the poets memory in
Westminster Abbey. With Charles
Sumner he drove to Cambridge and
attended a reception at Harvard
College. Another day was spent at
Bunker Hill, scene of the Pyrrhic
victory of the British troops in ITS.
Then a quick trip was made to
Portland, Me, where H. M. S.
Hero was waiting to take the
Prince home Sumner and other
friends accompanied him to Port
land, where he was met by members
of the Canadian government. To the
very last he INDUCED his good ma
ture in tWitting the Governor of
Maine, on board the Hero, regard
ing the Righteousness of his State,
which long anticipated the rest of
the Union in prohibiting the con-
sumption of alcoholic beverages.
Thinking to pose the Governor, the
Prince asked will you take a lit
tie wine, or is the law of Maine in
| force here?" The Governor, with
ready retort, said: II am out Of my
! Jurisdiction and will take the con-

The most important of the three
visits by refining sovereigns-up to
date-was that nearly 20 years ago
by King Albert of the Belgians, and
his Queen Elizabeth, accompanied
by their 18-year-old son, now King
Leopold. They spent four weeks in
the United States, the longest OF
any reigning sovereigns, and covered
q vast amount of territory. There
are nine members of the United
States Senate and 28 members OF the
House still in service who remember

tainment Of the Belgian royalty were
seriously disarranged by the sudden
illness of President Wilson. who was
stricken while the royal party was
still at sea en- route to the United
States. AS a result of these cir
cumstances the royal couple asked
that their visit be as quiet and in
conspicuous as possible. AS mat
ter Of fact, it was King Albert's sec
ond visit While Crown Prince. he
had previously visited this country
Studied Our Railroads.
The first continental nation to lay
down railroads was Belgium. Albert
realized the importance of railroads
in the development of his nation, and
visited America in 1898, especially to
study the railroads. At that time
his guide, counsellor and friend was
the late railroad empire builder,
James j. Hill. Albert found in him
not only an expert on railways, but
a man who shared his interests in
the fine arts. At that time Albert at
tended several baseball games and
the frenzied enthusiasm of the
crowds in attendance was revela-
ton to him. The one official act of
the prince was to return the official
visit of President Mckinley. Other
wise he preserved his incognito. He
manifested great interest in Harvard
University and in several important
engineering works. Gossip on his
trip endeavored to link his name with
several dollar princesses but the
result, as proven by later years, was
Intellectual.
With happy memories of his ear
lier visit rs young man, the King
took double qualification in accept
ing the cordial invitation of Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson. An Ameri-
can warship was placed at his
disposal, and in September, 1919,
the King, Queen and prince crossed
the Atlantic for three-week visit.
They came on the George Wash
ington, the ship that took President
Wilson to the peace conference in
Europe. While in the United States
he gave special study to the factors
that had builded Americas success
as a nation, indulging his passion for
trade and scientific studies.
Saw Pacific Coast.
The Belgian royal party upon ar
rival on our shores went first to
the Pacific Coast, and then back
tracked slowly. King Albert received
degrees from a number of American
universities. There were balls, din
ners and gala festivities in opera
houses throughout the country in
honor of the Belgian royal party.
In Washington the Belgian royal
party was domiciled in the home of
Breckenridge Long, Third Assistant
Secretary of State. King Albert ad-
dressed both houses of Congress, re-
viewed the cadets at the Naval
Academy and paid his respect to the
war President, Woodrow Wilson, in
his sick room at the White House.
While the Belgian royalty were in
New York congress of woman
physicians was in progress in their
hotel. Queen Elizabeth endeared
herself to the delegates to this con-
gress by introducing herself as
qualified medical doctor, and on in
vitation she participated in their
conferences and discussions. King
Albert maintained cordial relations
with succeeding American Presi-
dents. He exchanged Fluctuations
also with President Hoover.

Visited Richmond.
From Washington the Prince went
to Richmond. bulwark of slavery,
where he observed that every
fourth person one meets is black;
then on to Philadelphia, where. on
the night of his arrival, the re-elec-
ton of Andrew Curtin, Republican
anti-slavery candidate, was an
nounced, which removed the last
vestige of doubt regarding Lincoln s
election. The Prince had a gala
night walking the streets of the
City of Brotherly Love, watching
bonfires and torchlight parades.
Next day he visited the penitentiary,
then one Of the largest in the
United States, with 300 prisoners,
and lunatic asylum. Then he went
to nearby race track. At the
Philadelphia Opera House he first
heard Mile. Patti Gin "Martha')
whose voice in later years he so
greatly admired.
He next spent three glorious days
in New York First he reviewed the
troops with Mayor Fernando Wood
from City Hall AS he proceeded
to his hotel his passage was blocked
by nearly half a million people in
cheering masses. New York's great
effort in the way of entertaining
tho prirrn hoe
gotten. 1t was grand ball in the
Academy of Music. 1t was ad-
mittedly a success as far as being
national demonstration of re-
gard and affection"
The Prince wrote to his Queen
Mother thus quantity: The great
ball took place, but it was not sue
cessful-3,000 persons were invited
and 5000 came The ballroom would
not hold comfortably even 5000. We
arrived about 10 o'clock and before
the dancing had begun a great part
of the floor gave way and it took
two hours to set it right. The crowd
WIS so great it was difficult to move,
but in spite of these disasters 1
must say it was very pretty sight"
Survivors Repeated.
1t Is interesting to note at this
point that when the present Duke
of Windsor, then Prince of Wales,
visited New York for the first time
30 years ago, the proprietor of the
Academy Of Music gave a reception
there to the Prince at which were
present all survivors of the COM
pany which had assembled in the
same place nearly so years before,
In honor of the Princes GRANDPA ther
The hall was decorated in precisely
the same way as on the earlier oc-
casion.
Following the academy ball fiasco
the earlier Prince of Wales went to
West Point Academy, "the Sand
hurst of the United States" with
Gen. Scott, the veteran commander
in chief, who emphasized to the
future monarch the changes in An
glo-American relations to which
they were both making contribu-
tions. The old general had been
made prisoner by the British in
1872 at the battle of Queenstown
where the British Gen. Brock, to
whose monument the Prince had
added the capstone before leaving
Canada, had fallen. That night the
Prince enjoyed torchnght process
sion, the flares being carried by
5000 firemen. On Sunday the
Prince made his way with DIM

fancy it there and ducked out on
his own to Southampton. There
Admiral Digby caught up with him
and he was sent to the Mediter-
ranean fleet. AS King William w
he was the immediate predecessor
on the throne of Queen Victoria, his
niece, mother Of the Prince of Wales
who became Edward VII.
Baron Renfew"
The Prince of Wales, travelling as
Baron Renfew," came to this coun-
try during politically stormy weather
in October, 1860. One year earlier
John Brown had made his famous
raid at Harpers Ferry, on October
16, 1859, and was hanged on De-
cember 2 of the same year. Two
months after the arrival of the
Prince, South Carolina seeded from
the Union, on December 20, 1860,
and the Southern Confederacy was
formed on February 4, 1861, less
than three months after he had
returned home. Thus he was in
close contact with the start of the
rebellion.
The benefits to this country from
his sojourn here developed in about
six months, while he was yet only
19 years of age. Civil war broke
out in this country between the
North and the South. Critical ten
sion resulted between the govern
ments in Washington and London.
Influential quarters in England IA
vored the cause of the South. In
Washington grave fears were enter
tanned that England would lead
other European powers in support
ing the Confederacy. The Prince
of Wales visit guided hands off,
policy abroad, especially in England.
The Federal Government directed
the historian and diplomat, Motley,
whom the Prince had met in Rome,
to spend the autumn of 1861 in
England en- route to his new post
as American Minister to Vienna.
Motley visited the foreign Secre-
tary, Lord John Russell, who was
minister in attendance to the
Queen. The prince consort invited
him to an audience with the Queen,
the result of which is found in the
archives of the State Department
in long letter to Lincolns Secre-
tary of State, William H. Seward.
Gratitude to the North for atten-
tions paid the Prince of Wales
swayed the political judgment of his
parents. The Queen mother made
this plain to Motley, who acknowl-
edged that the welcome by the
United States to the prince de-
termined sEngland's attitude in the
lnternecine struggle.
Mason Incident.
A second evidence Of the influence
OF the princes visit is found in the
Mason and Slidell incident. The
captain of Federal warship seized
of Havana on the English mail
packet Trent these two ENJOYS of
the South on their way to Europe
to plead for Intervention on behalf
of the Confederacy. The Federal
captains attack on an English ship
aroused cry for retaliation to
which Prime Minister Palmerston
was about to yield when the prince
consort and the Queen, confessing
that the princes American tour was
actuating them, prevailed upon the
prime minister for a peaceful settle
ment
The third and very practical
Illustration of the good effects of
the princes tour came in August,
1863 The Civil War was still
raging and public sentiment in
England was still wavering. The
shrewd American statesman, Secre-
tary Seward, suggested to the
British minister in Washington,
