TOURISTS' RUSH TO EUROPË

FROM AMERICA.

The present season will constitute record in the number of American tourists to Europe. says a New York correspondent. Experts extimate that these tourists will by the end of the season have spent in England, and France chiefly, and in other Europenti centres, not less than 10,000,000. This

The Prince, who is the Chief Scout of Wales, lonked remarkably youthful in his uniform, and he won the hearts of all by his smiles and the cordiality and ease of his bearing. He smiled even des pite the rain which poured down piti- lessly upon the parade. It was, indeed, And then the concert begun.

When, later on, the Prince had finish-salute to the Royal Scout himself. ed the reel he returned to his tree stump on the narrow platform and made a little speech. He said that that camp of Em- pire Scouts was the biggest that had ever been held, and he asked them to raise three cheers, three of the best cheers you have ever given," to the Chief Scout, to whom they owed that evening and "the whole inception and inspiration of Scout. ing." Then he commanded Hats off!?? and the vast concourse gave their three cheere, followed by three grand cheers for. his Majesty, and finally they sang "God Save the King." His Royal Highness, again with his escort bf pipers, then walk- ed. over a muddy cart track to his tent on the higher ground of the camp, and behind surged thousands of boys cheer- ing without restraint and bidding their Royal camp-mate good night." Out- side his tent, the interior of which was most simply furnished nad dimly lighted by a hanging lamp, they lined up and serenaded him with more cheers and "For He's a Joily Good Fellow."

Before the "sing-song" the Prince of Wales had attended the late afternoon "Jamboree" in the Stadiuin, and bere he saw something of the work and play of the Scouts of the Empire, From the Royal box he witnessed a delightful page- Ant illustrative "of the life of the Aus- tralian aboriginals and of the arrival on that Southern continent of Captain Cook, and also a second picturesque page- ant of Sussex through the ages, an his- torical drama of stone-men and Druids, Saxons and Normans, sturdy yeomen and smugglers, which was in many respects an bistorical drama of England. He also saw about ten different groups of boys enter the field and perform a variety of exercises and games. But the great spec- tacle was the grand finale, for which the Prince went on to the arena with the Chief Scout and stood immediately in front of a squad of Sea Scouts guarding the Union Jack. Then there led before him about 2,300 Scouts from almost every corner of the British Dominions, all of whom dipped their banners as they pass- ed his Royal Highness.
