A review at Alderahot lately was honored by the attendance of H. R. H the Prince of Wales, the Dulce of Cambridge, and otKer personages, among'sfc wkoiii were some forcigrn princes. The latter were late in. arriving, and searched in vain for the Royal party ihe greater parfc of. a tedious morning. At last the carriage reached a bridge, at each end of which a sentry was posted and the wanderers sought guidanec from one of them. "Do you know where the Prince of Wales or the Duke of Cambridge is V an'occupant of the carriage asked. The man saluted. "No, sir,, I don't myself," he replied, "but I'll ask, my mate. Mo knows all fhe publichome* 'about here" Many Alderahot pudlic-houses are flamed after Royal or military personages, and it never occured to the sentry that it was the, illustrious man arid not the hosterly named after him that was wanted. 'The sentry "was perhaps thirsty, and his mind may have been running on "drains" as ]fche most likely.
