The guar ter deck protested, but the duke was not to be deterred, and, donuing an sppropridte kit, he descended into the Soiler-room, wheres, provided with a shovel, he proceeded to ply it with all the vigor at his command Another interesting story is told of the duke during the Boer war. On 'one occasion, attired in mufti, he was witnessing the departure of troops at Nine Elms Station. To him, uncon- scious of his identity, approached a reporter, eager for names," which the Duke of Commaught readily supplied. Then the reporter inquired if the Duke i» of Connaught was not expected lsc, and received the reply : a, you may put my name down, too, if you ; like, in don't say 1 was wearing =a : uniform." : in his volume of Barracks," thus sketches the - duke from the privates poi of view : 'ot 'as the gen'ral dove ? sez I; What "as the gen'ral done? 0, '¢'s a prince of the royal blood, An' they chucked 'im' is rank for fun ! But that was a lie, for I found out 'E's ninepence a soldier an' thrup- pence a prince ! 'E stood en Egypt an' 'e didn't - Not Arthur. . These anecdotes indicate character that will appeal to Csnadians, who, while they love a governor-gener- al who is royal, delight especially in + one that can unbend and divest him- self of ceremonial. -And the Duke of Connaught can do both, for though born in the purple he has little taste for its formalities 'and knows the virtue of camaraderie. Married Daughter of "Red Prince." The duke did not marry until he was twenty-nine, and met his young wife, the Princess Louise of Prussia, while staying in Berlin with his sis iter the late Fmpress Frederick. The lady of his choice was the third daughter of: Prince Frederick Charles, the redoubtable 'Red Prince," the most illustrious generals in the "Prussian army, whose red uniform was ever conspicuous in the thickest of the fight. The wedding took place at St, George's, Windsor, March 13th, | 1879. As a Princess of Prussia, (the bride received a dowry ok £30,000. Their eldest son, Prince Arthur of Connaught, follows his father's- pro fession, and became A. D, C, to the king in 1905. The elder daughter, Princess Margaret, is Crown Princess of Sweden. The younger, . Princess Patricia was' born in 1886. On the death in 1899 of Prince Alfred, the only son of the Duke of Saxe Cobourg Gotha, the succession was offered to the Duke of. Connaught as the next- of-kin, But the late: queen desired "that he and his son should remain British Princes, and this was equally the wish of the duke himself. He, therefore, renounced his own and Prince Arthur's rights in favor of the nya nephew. at Bagshot Park, twelve miles from Windsor and nine from Aldersho : the intervals of the duke® military duties and public engagements, a re tired home life, such as King Edward and Queen Alexander enjoyed at Sandringha: m.
