Manila, May 13.
The Prince of Wales was struck by the ball while playing polo here to-day, sustaining an inch and a half gash over the right eyebrow, which necessitated two stitches. The wound is not considered serious, but His Royal Highness was not able to attend the Governor-General's dinner to-night.

The Prince received a great reception on stepping ashore, his pluck in wanting to continue the game after his brow had been cut by the ball strongly appealing to the Filipinos.
