The Kaiser's Mustache.
Washington Post.

Kaiser Wilhelm is unconsciously infiuen-
cling the fashion in the cut Of 1nustaches:
At least many merchants ano tops and
newspaper correspondents in residence here
now affect the aggressively upturned
bristles worn by their imperial master. You
can see them in the beer halls OF Piccadilly
and in the hotels and offices of Ffnsbury
Circus.
David Christie Murray, the novelist, was
telling US the other day how the Kaiser
happened 10 adopt that hirsute mode OF
keeping a stiff upper lip. Its origin has, he
tells US, certain element or romance.
Christie Murray is always looking Tor
romance whether il turks in the mustache
of Wilhelm or in the dosier of Dreyfus. a
few years ago, we are told, AdJutant Won
Huslen, a companion from youth OF the
Kaiser appeared before his Majesty with
his mustache turned up in the fan-shaped
STYLE now so well known
who did it?' sententiously asked VIII
helm pointing at the mustache.
"Haby, your Majesty" replied AdJutant
Won Husen.
Send him to me- said the Kaiser.
Haby was sent for, and from that day
was appointed imperial barber. He has a
title half an ell long indicative OF his pro-
fession and status. He has put toilet
water on the market which Is proving a
money winner, and he has established a
barber shop which has become the rem
devious of military and civilian dandieS.
Haby decidedly has struck ii rich.

A STROKE OF DIPLOMACY.
How the Answer of the United States
to Italy Is Viewed.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE ambas-
sailors and ministers at Washington repre-
senting those powers having large interests
in China have communicated 70 their for
eign offices the substance of the recent an
swer OF the United States to Italy, TO the
effect that this country would maintain an
attitude of disinterested neutrality in refer
ence TO the Italian designs on San Nun
bay. Some Of these diplomats have advised
their governments that they regarded the
announcement of the United States atti-
tude as of supreme Importance in the Chi
nese situation. The reasons for this are
summed up by a prominent member OF the
diplomatic corps. representing one of the
powers Of Europe. follows: THE answer
of the United States to Italy is a remark
ably brilliant stroke of diplomacy. The neu-
trail inclination of the United States gov
eminent would have been TO favor the move
of Italy, for the opening of San-Mun bay
would give another port to the growing
have excited the animOsity Of China, the
United States government decides on d
course of disinterested neutrality This
gives no Offense 10 China and at the same
time Italy and the world at large take no.
tice that the Uuited States Will interpose
no obstacle in the acquisition of San-Mun
bay or any other Chinese port. 1t is most
important to all the powers to know that
the United States has no purpose TO interfere
in behalf Of China. even TO the extent Of
exerting her moral influence toward con-
tinuing China's integrity. For that reason
i look upon the American answer TO Italy
as the most important development in the
Chinese situation that has arisen in recent
days, and l think IT Will be so accepted in
all the foreign Offices"
This diplomatic official further pointed
out that ii Italy secured San-Mun bay from
China II would prove port of inestimabe
value to the United States interests in the
Philippines. 1t is one of the southerly ports
of China and about the closest for the big
trade to and from Manila. The Chinese au-
thorities were at first inclined &c accept the
answer of the United States to Italy as
rather favorable to China. But the more
il is turned over the more it appears TO in
directly favor Italy, as it gives her an as
surance that her hands will be free in ex-
ecuting the move on San-Mun bay.
