THE ROYAL TOUR.
JAPAN AWAITING PRINCE. WONDERFUL PREPARATIONS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Tokio, April 8. Japan is agog in anticipation of the arrival of the Prince of Wales. Welcome arches have sprung up in Tokio, Yokohama, and other cities, and the street cars are carrying instructions to householders to secure. Union Jacks and fly on every house. The magnificent Aoyama Palace has been refurnished. With special preparation for an Imperial cherry blossom party, the school children have prepared millions of paper cherry blossoms to strew on the road when the Prince arrives, while there will be a continual bombardment of daylight fireworks from Yokohama to Tokio along the railway. The Prince will probably find himself more restricted in his movements than at any time in his life. As a -strictly Imperial guest he must confine himself within the hounds set by the Imperial family. There will be no chatting with street crowds and no mingling with the celebrators.
