GERMANY'SCROWN PRINCE
HIS WONDERFUL POPULARITY WITH
 THE MASSES.

A Gallant and Aggressive Leader of Men,
 Whose Desire is to Add to the Military
 Glory of the Fatherland-A Bitter Hater
 of England.
 BERLIN, March 21-A man of 29 years, erect, square shouldered, 1.-the, powerful and austere, strode out of the railway station here after seeing a batch of royal guests de- part. He had a strong, heavily lined and moody face. The guards presented arms and a brilliant retinue of generals hurried after the masterful looking German. It was the crown prince, who will soon be emperor of the nation of warriors. The waiting mul- titude at sight of him gave single yell that came from their very hearts The prince turned toward the sea of faces and looked in tently at the people, His moody, surly eyes flew rapidly from face to face. Then he slowly touched his cap. Cheer after cheer rose wildly ill quick succession and with pas sionate fervor
 The people fought to get another look at him, and he was whirled away amid the hoarse and frantic shouts of his worshippers
 The fierce light that beats about the Ger man throne leaves the dumb and sickly monarch in the shadow, pIodding slowly on toward nearing the inevitable end, while it throws the stalwart, warlike and aggressive figure of Grown Prince William out with vivid distinctneSs.

 They have tried to mob Mackenzie and they look coldiy at Frederick III because he spends the last hours of his waning life en- nobling men of Semitic blood. They adore the very name of the coming ruler, who has all their prejudices intensified a thousandfold. His aversion to the English extends to his own mother. When he was ordered to San Reno by the late emperor to visit his invalid father the royal party started to walk to church, and Prince Williams English mother, the present empress, attempted to take his arm He shook her off roughly in the pres ence of the crowd.
 'I represent the person of the emperor" he said haughtily. 1T walk alone"
 Won Moltke, the SS-year-old field marshal, has 6 shrewd, brilliant and ambitious assist ant, Count Wa dersee, a hater of the English, who is only 40 years old, but tactcan, strategist, and general in whom the great German army places absolute confidence The count and prince are warm friends When they are together the ministers whis- per that mischief IS brewing. When one Is emperor he will make the other field marshal Both are schemers, and their power will be tremendous. Hence knights and diplomats all over Europe watch Berlin with weary eyes, and when William II ascends the throne the map makers may get roady an sharpen their tools, for they will have work to do.
 A cartoon issued by the newspaper called The FIoh yesterday excited much comme nt It represents tie crown prince trying to climb on the throne, sword in hand, the army behind him.
