PRINCE OF WALES.
TOUR OF SOUTH AFRICA
BIG-GAME HUNTING. (rXTTEB TRESS ASSOCIATION'—ST ELKCTRIC TELEGBAPH—COPIKIGHT.) (Received Deeeniber 29th. 3.5 p.m.'i LONDON'. December 2S. When the Prince of Wales embarks on the. Kenilworth Castle on -Tanuary 3rd, he will, at his own wish, travel as an ordinary passenger, ami take his meals in the dining-saloon with th: other passengers. His only privilege will be the merging of two cabins on the promenade ileek to make a private sitting-room from which he will step direct on to the deek for his daily exercise. He invariably takes this simplicity course, which compares more than favourably with the fuss and attention demanded by many millionaires who are trans-Atlar.tic travellers for only a few days' voyage, or the elaborate suites demanded by many Indian potentates. Big-game hunting will be an important part of his six weeks' tour. He will stay a few days at Government House at Cape Town and then go inland. He has expressed his wish to secure a rhinoceros, a lion, and a buffalo.
