THE PRINCE SEES THE SHOW.

Visits Buffalo Bill's Attractions and Ends
the Day at the World's Fair.

THE CHICAGO RECORD
WORLD'S FAIR BUREAU.

Prince Antoine climbed aboard an elevated
train yesterday afternoon and went to Buffalo
Bill's show. With him was the duke de
Tamames. They were not recognized until
they had taken seats in box 24 and then some
newspaper men saw him and informed Maj.
Burke that royalty was occupying $1 seats.
The prince and his companion remained until
the last Indian and passed behind the scenes,
and then, stuffing Col. Cody's lithographic
play bills in their pockets, started for the 64th
street Exposition gate.

They were not deadheads, for both bought
tickets and entered the grounds untrammelled
by officious ceremonies and free form reception
committees. On the plaza they met the
scarlet-uniformed leader of the Spanish band.
Then it was that the surrounding sightseers
found a prince elbowing them, for the stout
little musician gave the military salute and entered
into an animated conversation with Eulalia's
husband. Some one recognized the
prince, and caused a little stir by mentioning
the fact in a loud ton. But the crowd evidently
respected his desire to enjoy himself
without any annoying manifestations of curiosity,
and when the prince started for the
manufactures building no one paid any attention
to him. He and the duke wandered
around the big building for a time, and then
strolled over the grounds without any Exposition
officials being the wiser.
