HONOR To LUTHER.
Elaborate Rehabilitation of the Reformer.s
Church.

WITTENBERG. Oct. 31.-This old town
of jointed gables, quaint towers and
narrow streets to-day presented
unique aspect. Everywhere bright
banners and floral feStoons We're to be

Sweden, Prince Albrecht, the Regent
of Brunswick, the Duke of Oldenburg,
the Prince of SAKE Meniningcn and

On a great pavilion built in front
of the Schlosskirche doors, the
Emperor received the keys of the
editice. This church was commenced
in 143S and finished in i499. In 1860 it
was seriously injured by bombardment
and it suffered in the same manner in

threaten the EberieS of the entire peo-

would disturb property values and dis

havoc wrought by the Lebel rifles,
with which the French forces oper-
