timely and interesting addition to the
"Public Men Of To-Day" series is the volume
entitled, Tho German Emperor. Willidm H., by
CHARLES LOWE tFrederick Warne 6; Coz. Tho
author Is already known to American readers
by his biography Of Prince Bismarck, which
was afterward followed by . compilation Of
Bismarck's Table Talk" In tho compass OF
274 pages the book before us reviews the life Of
the present head of the German empire from
his birth In 1869 up to the opening Of tho Kiel
Canal. The blographer gives full account of
his subjects early training, and throws light on
many obscure questions connected with his pub
lie life. Among these may he mentioned tho
following: Is it true that William ii. under

vent the assumption Of the Prussian and i'm

II must, to be sure, be acknowledged that
the rapid successes Of the Japanese should
DO discounted by tho fact that the contest
was undertaken against an unwarliko pco-
pie. destitute OF military organization. 1t
should. nevertheless. be remembered that
the absence OF any efficient military resist
ance was compensated by obstacles of an-
other nature; tho want Of roads. the difficult
country. and the severe weather prevailing dur
Ing the latter part OF the campaign. The rapid
surmounting OF these distractions by q nation
carrying on war across the sen demonstrates
that japan possesses n very efficient military
organization and n commissariat which can pro-
vide against any emergency. The Japanese
themselves were not surprised at their triumphs,
and only found matter for astonishment In the
fact that foreigners should ever have doubted

To the world the war has been revelation OF
the power OF Japan, and has gained for her uni

States which cannot be now made in japan. In

Far above all these materia! results must bo

felt and acted like ono man; the political par

1t is not surprising that tho zeal and enthu-
siasm which Prince William displayed in con-
nection with tho passage of tho Army bill In
March. 1888. should have produced a popular
belief that he was a young man devoured by
military ambition, and capable of plunging his
country into war for the mere sake of glory,
which Frederick the Great confessed had been
the sole motive for his first Silesian campaign.
To all such interpretations Of his character, the
Prince himself. while still but 20 years of age,
returned tho following answer at q banquet
given by tho Provincial Diet of Brand enburg;
in my rides through BrandenburE. In the course
Of tho maueuvres the fourlshing fields and tho
trades which I found In full activity, clearly

hand. that some Of his later addresses seem

been significantly reminded of the exceeding

There Is no doubt that in tho education Of
Prince William. the influence or his mother was
always paramount and this was exerted in
favor Of an up. bringing for her sons purely
English was compatible with their prepara-
tion for their career German Princes. In
particular. they had a great advantage over
other German boys In respect Of the open-air
sports which. during the summer. formed their
habitual relaxation. Prince William very soon
learned to row. to swim. TO skate. to ride. to
fence, and to shoot, In all Of which manly exer-
cises he e1celled In spite of his being practically
confined to the use OF one arm. the right. BY
constant use, however. this arm had acquired
the strength Of two. and Lord Ampthll used to
say that to shake hands with the Prince was
like being Ia the grip OF Gotz Won Berlichingen
OF the Iron Hand. On completing his tenth
year, Prince William. in conformity with the
custom of his house, was ceremo oniously en-
rolled in the army as Second Lieutenant in the
First Foot Guards at Potsdam. To strut with
drawn sword on the flank OF the leading COM
pany Of this regiment, and to move the mrth
of the spectators by trying to keep pace with
the long and prancing parade stepof these ldnge

to remind him that above all things, he was .

building up of his house.
