Emperor william's Garbied Report.

emperor " OoAD s~~
Chicago Record
Emperor Nicholas is exceedingly lrrf-
tated against Emperor William ana
against the entire German court in con-
nection with an almost incredible piece OF
impeNinence to which he was suoJecteo
on the occasion OF his visit TO Brsslan. Al
the state banquet which took place on
that occasion. Emperor William delivered
one of his enthusiastic speeches toasting
the GEAR, and expressing the most aroent
hope and belief that in any time OF
trouble OF European war Russian ana
German soldiers would be found lighting
side by side.
The czar's response was oouched In the
most chilling and cold terms consistent
with courtesy, and one of his most signin-
cant phrases was as follows: II am AMI
mated by the same traditional feelings
toward your majesty as my father.
Now, the late car VIGOROUSLY abomin-
ated Emperor William and took no pains to
conceal his aversion, and It was owing to
this hatred Of the German emperor that ne
first originated the Franco-Russian union.
which Is aimed against Germany.
Realizing the deplorable effect that
would be created by the publication OF this
utterance, Emperor William revised tho
version Of the cars speech that was
handed to the representatives OF the Ger
man and OF the foreign press In such q
manner as to read: 81 am animated by
the Same traditional feelings as your mai
esty," which was. Of course. equivalent to
. declaration OF hostility against France.
To mako matters worse, william even
caused this CARRIED version to be published
in the Berlin Official Gazette. II is easy
10 imagine the indignation which such an
unpardonbaie piece Of deceit created In the
breast OF the car and his court.

JOHN PHILIP sousA
rhe Cred, nandmas,er,s caIeeI.
(From the Pittsburg Dispatch

From the Pitisburg Dispatch
Mr.. John Philip Sousa, director Of
sousa's grand concert band, was born
in Washington, d. c., 1S54,of Spanish
father and German mother. His early
musical training was Of the best, for
he attracted attention as a violinist
when very young, and at the age OF le
became an orchestral leader, where
unusual abilities in this direction
were demonstrated. At 26 years he
was appointed, under the Hayes adj
ministration, musical director of the
United States Marine Band, which
position he filed with great credit
and honor for twelve years, during
which time the national band was de-
veloped into one Of the best drilled
bands In. existence, and drew world
wide attention to Mr.. Sousa as a band
master of unprecedented, IL not I'M
equaled ability. Mr.. Sousa remained
with the Marine band until he re-
celved an offer to take up the baton OF
the present unparalleled organization
August 1, 1892. As 4 composer Mr..
Sousa is unusually prolific and popu-
lar. He is known as the "March
King" as widely as Strauss is known
as the "Waltz King" and is one of
the very few American composers
whose works are generally played
in Europe. Altogether he has COM
posed Oyertwo hundred musical works,
including a great number Of marches,
oyertures and five operas. In
appearance, Director Sousa Is or
medium height, possessing a well-knit
frame, with features of southern
brunette type, ~bespeaking a warmth
or temperament, great enthusiasm,
and intelligence. lie posses
the magnetic personal charm, which
attracts others, and at the same time
enables him to control a band as much
by force of character as by vested
authority. The remarkable success he
mas achieved at the head of the mag
liffcent band he is now leading is
something phenomenal.
