PRINCE OF WALES.

WILL HE MARRY AMERICAN GFRL? SAYS HE DOESN’T KNOW. . New York, Sept. 4. The Prince of Wales left the liner as soon as the medical inspection of the vessel was completed, and proceeded to Glencove, Long Island. From there he was taken by motor to Syosset, 10 miles distant, where the colonial residence of Mr. James Burden, a big iron manufacturer, has been turned over to him during his two weeks’ stay in the United oxates. The yacht Blackwatch conveyed the Prince to the shore, and the bay was filled with pleasure craft, the occupants of which cheered the Prince on his appearance. In a two-minute interview, the Prince said: “I am glad to be in the United States again.”

A reporter suggested that he understood the Prince wanted to learn to play poker. “Oh, cut that out,” said the Prince, smilingly. Someone asked him if he would marry an American girl. His Highness regarded the question as a joke. He laughed, and said he did not know. Miss' Lenore Oahil, of St. Louis, the only girl outside his own party who danced with the Prince of Wales on the Berengaria, gave her impressions of.the heir to the throne.

“1 like him,” she said. “Who could help it? He dances very well. Be holds you just so—not too timidly, but is not only an excellent dancer, but not too distantly either. The Prince has mastered the art of maintaining an interesting conversation without sacrificing any of the rhythm of the dance.” Lenore was dressed entirely in bottle green, and her hair was not bobbed.— Reuter.
