FLYING FOR HIS LIFE.
How Emperor William Once Had to Hid

How Emperor william Once Had 70 Hide
In Earns and bitches.
This remarkable account. which has
only nov been made public. although
the more important details were
known. is distracted from tho unpub-
lished memoirs of \ diplOmatist who
was a participator in the events Of the
cventful year of revolution. and an eye
witness Of much that concerned the
late Emperor William of Germany.
In 1913. the year of the continental
revolutions. the people Of Berlin. fol-
lowing the example Of those of Paris.
raised barricades. and after four days
fighting the King. the elder brother OF
the late Emperor. who was then Prince
of Prussia. ordered the Prince. who had
been organizing the attacks on the bar
ricades. to retire with the troops from
POtsdam. Prince William sought an
interview with the King. who refused
to rescind the order. when the Prince
broke his sword and. throwing it at his
elder brothers feet. left the palace.
The mobiles and the a~ristocracy wished
the King to abdicatc in favor of the
Prince. but the people were SO cnraged
against the latter. in consequence OF
his ordering the barricades to be car.
ried by the troops that he had to cs-
cape in disguise. whilst the democracy
triumphed and paradcd the King on
horseback through the streets of Ber-
lin. The Prince. disguised as a coach
man. took refuge on an island in the
river; but here he was not safe. and he
fled to the Spartan; but. being known.
the mayor talked of giving him to the
democrats as a traitor t his country.
and he was again obliged to have re-
course to fight to save his life.
To save the crown jewels. the plate
and the imperial treasucrs from the
clutches of the victorious party. it was
necessary to remove them from the PAL
ace. Fortunately a private door opened
on to the river. and the valuables were
placed on board barges. which. for the
purposes of disguise. were draped with
black cloth. as though they contained
the bodies of insurgents slain at the
barricades. In this manne they were
transferred to the railways. and reached
Hamburg rs merchandise. and were
put on board a vessel about to leave for
England. The Prince. however. had to
leave the railway being threatened with
death on several occasions; to saw his
life he had still further to disguise HIM
sell. cutting OF his beard and wearing
strange clothes. Wandering on foot
he hid himself away in peasants cot
tages and slept in barns. 1t was inn
portant that he should embark for En-
gland without being recognized. To
accomplish this end he passed over the
frontier on to Danish territory and
arrived at last ut a villa belonging to
his friend Oswald. where. for the first
time since he left Berlin. he enjoyed
the luxury of = bed. The following
day the Prince. under the name of
Muller. embarked on board a vessel
about to sail for London. accompanied
