PRINCE TO GO TO AFRICA
TRAVELS AS ORDINARY PASSENGER NO FUSS DESIRED Z lilted P.A.—By Telegraph— Copyright LONDON, Saturday. When the Prince of Wales embarks on the Kenilworth Castle on January 3 for Africa, he will travel as au ordinary passenger and take his meals in the dining saloon with the other passengers. This is at his own wish. The only privilege his Royal Highness will enjoy will be the merging of two cabins on the promenade deck to make a private sitting-room, from which he will step direct on to the deck for the daily exercise he invariably takes. This simplicity on the part of the Prince compares more than favourably with the fuss made and the attention demanded by many millionaires who are transatlantic 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 Royal Highness’s six weeks’ tour. He will stay a few days at Government House, Capetown, and thence will go inland. He has expressed his wish to secure a rhinoceros, a lion and a buffalo.
