The Prince did not leave his car, but frcra the back platform smiled his acknowledgments of the demonstrations in his honor. He made no speech, a hearty 'Thank you!" "Thank you!" being the substance of his reply to the welcoming address of Mayor I. M. Head. During the stop herp the desire expressed by the Prince to hear some cf the old plantation negro sones of the South was c-atifled. the I negro jubilee singers from Fish University singing three of those tuneful melodies to the manifest enjoyment'of the Prince. One of the singingers was a member of the organlration when it made a tour of Europe some years ago and having been told that, Prince Henry, after the first song, reached over and shook hands with him, making reference to the visit t2 Berlin. His Royal Higne&s asked Governor McMillin, who wa3 standing by him, what the purport of the songs was. "They are revival songs," replied the Governor. "What are revival songs" queried the Prince, and the Governor entered into an explanatory remark concerning the old-time negro's picturesque faith and customs. A large committee of distinguished citizens, State, city and county officials, headed by Governor McMillin ana Mayor Head, was on hand to welcome the royal visitor formally. As the special pulled in a band struck up. but the loud cheers of the crowd almost drowned its notes. The Prince appeared touching his cap in recognition, and th9 special committee boarded the ear. After the usual formalities, Mayor Head delivered his welcoming speech, during which he presented a hickory cane from "The Hermitage," Andrew Jackson's old home. The cane is silver mounted. On the top of the handle is engraved a front view of "The Hermitage" and lower down this inscription: "Presented to His Royal Highness. Prince Henry of Prussia, as a souvenir from The Hermitage, the home of Andrew Jackson, March 2d. 1902." - A handsome floral design was also presented on behalf of the German American society of Nashville.

He said he regretted that he could not meet and shake hands with all the people and asked the mayor to thank them for him. The musical programme followed and promptly on time the train plied out for Louisville, the Prince and othbr members of the party standing on the rear platform.

England," coi tinued the Senator, "can squint an shake its thumbs at us and say 'Yoi work in the Philippine is as bad t ours in the Transvaal.' Why have w got such a Government? There Is tli rub.

TILLMAN, o Late Colonel First South Carolina Volir unteer Infantry and Lieutenant Govd ernor of South Carolina, e Tillman said:?"It is with much reis gret I am directed, rather required, to d have to send the telegram I did, espek dally in view of the fact that I am so closely related to one who but a few t- days ago was subjected to all affront a- which is seemingly, or the people who contributed to the purchase of the d sword think, unwarranted. As far as e.

It ie can be stated that the telegram of b Lieutenant Governor Tillman has c. been received at the White House >r and that no attention whatever has b- been paid to it The President has 2r not yet considered what effect it may is have on his proposed visit to the exij. position at Charleston. ie Cruelty at Pon-Pon Mines.
