Jan. 22.—King Edward VIII, as he will be called (Edward is the first of his several baptismal names) was fairly well known, as the Prince of Wales in Washington. That is to say, he paid two or three visits to Uncle Sam’s capital, and while they were short, he attracted plenty of attention. On each of these occasions he was a guest at the White House. He was an informal specimen of royalty —lunched at the presidential itiable in <a very ordinary business suit, rather baggy, in the English fashion, and somewhat in need of pressing. In at least one instance he had on a colored shirt with a soft collar. And a bowler hat, as they de scribe it on Piccadilly. He was dressy enough to wear spats, however.
