PRINCE OF WALES IS GIVEN OVATION ON ARRIVALIN CANADA QUEBEC, Sept. 14.—(By The As- sociated Press.}—The Baron of Ren- frew has arrived in Quebec. The Baron of Renfrew is none other than his Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, heir to England's throne. Tiring of being hailed as the future ruler of the British empire, the Prince of Wales chose one of his many titles to travel under and thus escape the formalities accord- ed a personage of royal blood. In short he wanted to dodge the plaudits of the multitudes, enter Canada quietly and be on his way to an Alberta ranch, where, the papers say he will eat boarding house hash and other simple fare. Did he succeed in dodging the multitude? He did not, Bright and early did the crowds gather at the pier to meet the baron and as the Empre: steamed to her dock a lusty cheer \greeted the man who, only three |¥ears before, had won the hearts of Canadians and Americéns with his smile. Being only a baron, the Prince of | Wales did not even have a special cutter in which to reach the shore. There were no officials to accord him an official reception, but the unofficial one made up for that. Despite the crowds at the pier. however, Baron Renfrew's visit to the American continent is sharp- ly contrasted to the one the Prince of Wales made three years ago. Then he toured the continent, was greeted everywhere by huge throngs, attended numberless social functions and danced with even more untold numbers of American and Canadian girls. Baron Renfrew came to Canada for a holiday. He went from the @be Casper Daily Cridune the bluffs, where from his window” he could gaze down upon the broad St. Lawrence river. He then traveled on a private car attached to a regu- lar train and was rted td Alberta. That was the end of cere- monies. |_ On the ranch Baron Renfrew will live as a rancher. He will ride western horses in a western saddle; | will be up early and in bed early; dancing partners are warned to keep |away and, in short, the Prince of | Wales—pardon—Baron Renfrew will jlead the simple life and, as the | papers say, eat boarding house hash |and other simple fare. | ae LATE SPORTS GERMANTOWN CRICKET CLUB, PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14.—Willlam M.
