paer was commented upon on all sides.
Indeed, the health of the EN- press is still

most strict family seolusion. The usual
congratulations and other ceremonies
were omitted and even the gala perform

give the reopening of the renovated the
ater certain eclat, did not take place.
The physicians in attendance on her ma
jesty have strongly advised her to care
fully avoid all excitement and late hours
in order to fully recover her health.
A curious featureEof the dedication
cerem onies was the choral sung in the
church, When the Lord Sends a Cross Let
Us Patiently Bear 1t, composed by a boy
IL years old, Feeder Won Which, who,
when suffering from the same complaint
as Emperor Frederick. sent it to the lat
ter. Young Willich died at the same time
as Emperor Frederick.
Emperor William opened the new su-
preme law court Of the empire at Leipsic
today. His majesty arrived at noon and
was received at the railoiad station by
the King of Saxony. The two sovereigns
walked together down the front of the
guard Of honor and then drove through
the town to the new law court building.
Their majesties were heartily cheered by
the crowds who lined the route, which
was profusely decorated and lined oy
troops, military associations and school
children.
The chiefs Of the various government
departments and the federal councillors
were present at the law court, where the
arrival of the monarchs was announced
by flourish uf trumpets.
Prince Hohenlohe, the imperial chan

the president OF the reicnstag, Baron Won
Buel Brenberg, presented his majesty
with a mallet with which he struck the

in Saxony."
The enlp peror again tapped the stone

few days in shooting on the estate of
Herr Won Wedel chief of the imperial
household, at Presdoif.

The chief topic OF the newspapers
discussion during the past week has been
tbs new battalions. The secretary for
war is not satisfied with their operations
or utility and the military experts declare
that their purpose, forming cadres to be
called upon in case of war. is far from
practicable. The emperor desires to have
the half battal lions made whole ones,
hence the Liberal Socialist press talk of
a forthcoming new military bill.

the military banquet at Metz is now
