NATIVE GIRL KISSES PRINCE

Member of British Royal Family Makes Great Big Hit With Marais. Christ Church, New Zealand. —Remarkable incidents occurred during the visit of the New Zealand battle cruiser New Zealand to Russell, North Island, where the Nagapuhi, a famous tribe of Maroia, gave Captain Halsey and the other officers an effusively demonstrative welcome. Sub Lieut. Prince George of Battenberg was singled out, for attention. Several girlß of the tribe slapped him on the back, and, amid the greatest enthusiasm, a young and pretty Maori girl threw her arms around the prince’s neck and kissed him on both cheeks.
