drapery, and lit by thousands of mean

WILLIAM TALKS TO HIS ARMY.
REGENERATED, 1T is THE PRIDE
OF THE NATION.

Form and Life Given to IL, He snid,
by His Great Grandfathcr-Germa
Empire Thus Again Took Its stand
In the Council of Acknowledgment
VIII Now Seek to ReorganIze the
German Navy aud Add More to
Germnny's Power.
Berlin, Jan. EMPEROR william at the
New Years parade to-day. addressed The
officers of the garrison as follows:
1.-THE first day of the new century sees
our army, in other words, our people in
arms, gathered around their standards,
kneeliug before the Lord of Hosts, and,
verify, if any one has especial reason this
day for bowling down before God, 1t is our
army. A glance at our standards sufliCes
as an explanation for they are the EN-
bodiment of our history.
In what condition did the past century
at its dawn find our army? The glorious
army of Frederick the Great had slept
upon its laurels, fossilized amid all the
petty detail Of pipe clay led by superannu-
ated and insufficient generals with officers
unaccustomed to useful work aud lost in
debauchery, luxury and foolish arrogance
Our army. in a word, was not equal to
It's MISSION, when, indeed, II mad forgot
ten. Form and life were given 1t by my
great grandfather; new laurels crowned
the newly created army and its youthful
banners, but universal military service
only attained Its true significance through
our great departed Emperor. In his quiet
work he evolved the reorganization of
our army, in spite of opposition and ig-
norance. He brought the German races
together and gave us back long desired
German unity, 1t is to him that our
thanks are due, and by the help of that
army the German empire, commanding
respect, has again assumed the position
assigned TO 1t in the council of nations
1t is for YOU gentlemen, to preserve
and employ in the new century the old
qualities by which our forefathers made
the army great, namely, simplicity and
modesty in daily life, unconditional devo-
ton 90 the royal service, the employment
of ones whole strength of body and mind
in the ceaseless work of training and de-
velopdng our troops; and. even as my
grandfather labored for his army so will
l, in like manner unerrngly carry on and
carry through the work of reorganizing
my navy in order that 1t may be justified
in standing by the side of my hand forces
and that by it, the German empire may
also be in a position to win the place
which 1t has not yet attained. With the
two united, l hope to be enabled with a
firm trust in the guidance of God to prove
the truth of the saying OF Frederick viii
liam the First:
When one in this world wants to de-
eide something with the pen he does not
do it unless supported by the strength of
the sword p"

From the Philadelphia Saturday Evening

In one of the large wholesale grocery
houses of New York everybody seems so

condition came about. The firm does not

The Science or Dreams.
From The. London News.


Sleep is not "the brother of Death" as
the poets have said, from Homer TO Shell
ley; but, on the contrary, sleep is the
brother Of Life" SO Prof. Baschide as
serts. who, in an article in the Naturwis-
sens chaftliche RundschGu. gives an ac-
count of his experiments upon thirty-six
dreamers." His subjects were of various
ages from one year to eighty years. In
some cases his observations were contin-
ued during the whole night. and In others
for great part Of the night. He watched
and recorded every change OF physiog-
nomy every movement of the limbs, and
every speech or sound uttered by the I'M
conscious dreamers. The depth of the
sleep was also carefully measured, while
from time TO time the dreamerS were
awakened, but without their own percep-
ton that the awakening was Intentional
The professor obtained, as he writes al
length, the following results: First. We
dream throughout the whole of our sleep,
even in that deepest sleep which we i'm
agiae to be "dreamless." Second. There Is
an intimate connection between the depth
of our sleep and the character of our
dreams. The deeper the sleep, the further
back travels the retrospect into the past
experiences of life, and also the more re-
moe are the contents of dream from real
ity. In a light sleep on the contrary, the
subject of the dream relates 10 the ex-
periences and eXcitemonts of the day, and
has a character of probability Third. In
comatose sleep the professor thinks
there may, perhaps, he no dreaming.
Fourth. Persons who assert that they do
not dream ARE the victims of psychical
deluson." Fifth. Dreams of moderate
charac er remain longest in the memory;
the wilder the dream the sooner II is for
gotten.
