PRINCESS AND SENTRY.
(Independent Coblo Association.) LONDON, May 24.

Getting un eariy. sho went out beforo breakfast to tho aircraft enclosure, and started to tako somo photographs. Tho public aro strictly excluded from this quarter, and the sentry immediately placed the Princess under arrest, absolutely refusing to beliovo that sho was' who 6ho eaid she was.
With soldierly plainness of speech ho told her that he believed sho was a "bloomin' eufferingette," and her Royal Highness was in custody a quarter of an hour before a passing officer happened to her. He rescued her, and took her back to her parents.
