PRINCE OF WALES.
AEROPLANE FLIGHTS IN EAST . AFRICA. (UXITZD PRESS ASSOCIATION —BT ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH —COPYRIGHT.) LONDON, January 2. A new thrill awaits the Prince of Wales when he resumes his h'unting trip in East Africa, originally interrupted by the King's illness. He will be taken on aeroplane flights over the jungle in search of big game in Tanganyika, thus avoiding waste of time motoring in the rainy season. He insists that he shall be treated as an ordinary passenger on board ship, taking his meals in the saloon. While in South Africa 1 as the guest of the Earl of Athlone (GovernorGeneral) the Prince proposes to visit the districts where native disaffection has recently shown itself. While hunting, he will use a special six-wheeled Wolserey saloon car which was shipped to Africa yesterday. The Prince got a lioness on his last tour, and this time he hopes to add a iTiinoceros. He expects to return to London at the end of April. PRINCE'S LAST DAY IN LONDON. (Received January 3rd, 10.45 p.m.) LONDON, January 3. The Prince of Wales spent a quiet day making his fa? Swells. He leaves Waterloo at 1.30 this afternoon for Southampton.
