eral ever had n more triumphant entry
into The city than that accorded Prince
Bismarck to-day. Ever since his recon-
ciliation with the emperor he has been APP
parently new man. His demeanor Is
entirely changed. Tie has been happy
and light hearted as formerly. lie has
greatly gained in general health and
strength. The family at Fredrichsruhe
were astir early and the air of ioyousness
prevailed in tho household. The prince
took the train for Berlin at 9:30, accompa-
MED by Count Herbert h Bismarck and
DFs. Schweninger and Chrisander. Tho
whole ncighborhood turned out 10 cheer
the man OF blood and iron as he left the
castle.
The emperor intended to welcome him
in person at the station. but. at the last
moment, was obliged TO send regrets as
he was compelled to meet the king OF
SaSony at the same hour at another
station. The city was layishly decorated
in honor of the occasion aud large stands
were erected at desirable points along the
route. While crowds on Inter Den Linz
den were waiting the princes arrival,
they suddenly saw the emperor returning
from his ride aud chcercd him frauically
In testimony OF their appreciation OF his
successful efforts at reconciliation with
the great chancellor; in fact, nothing
which the emperor has done since he
asccnded the throne has SO won the alec
tions OF the people as this. His reception
was entirely unprecedented and he was
evidently delighted, bowing and smil-
ing on oil sides. Before noon
large assemblags Of distinguished
oiiic ers and public officials. specially
detailed for the purpose by command Of
the emperor, began to assemble At the
station, including the headquarters staf.

in full uniform. Soon after. Prince Henry
of Prussia, brother of the emperor, with 4
brilliant ssaG, rode to tho station.
1t required the utmost efforts of the
police and military force to maintain room
for the dlgnitares, SO great was the crowd
at the station. Bsmarck's train arrived
at p. m., and as soon as tho crowd saw
his weli-hnown face at the window it set
up great shout which tho waiting throng
in the streets took up and bore away with
thunderous roar to the very gates of tho
palace.
As Bismarck stepped from the car hc
was met by Prince Henry and conducted
TO the royal carriage, shaking hands with
many officers on the way, many OF whom,
especially the veterans, wero ysibly
affected at seeing him once more In tho city
which he had done so much to create.
As Bismarck emerged from the station hc
was greeted by storm of cheers when
spread away until they were repeated at
points miles away. II was reception OF
which no man could fail To be proud.
Then, led by n detachment OF cuiras-
sicrs, the journey TO the palace was be-
gun 10 the accompaniment OF the German
cheers, which fairly shook the houses.
From the windows along the route and
from the hands of the gathered multi
: tudes showers Of flowers were thrown into
the carriage. while the faces of many of
the shouting Berliners were wet with
tears in evidence of the genuneness OF
the welcome to tho iron chancellor. BIS.
Harck was evidently deeply moved hy

Arrived at the palace, Prince Henry and
the emperor's guest passed between the
lines OF honor into the palace, where the
emperor received his fathers and grand
fathers friend and trusted counselor viii
the greatest distinction and the utmost
cordtality. Bismarck lunched in the en-
: peror's private rooms with tho emperoI
aud empress only. The magnificent
cuirassiers Of B.smarcks old regiment

, and placed on guard over the apartments
of the palace assigned him. After BIS
