HAPPINESS EVERYWHERE.

was happiness everywhere, and that
heaven was right here in this greatest
German city. There Is laughter every
where, except when the emperor drives
by, escorted by his body qua. d, on the
finest horses in the world, then every
laughing, all stand at attention, and
every face takes on solemn, patriotic,
almost a fighting look, as though each
man would consider it his happiest
duty and pleasure to walk right up
to the mouth of cannon and die in
his tracks for his pale-faced, haggard
and loved emperor. And the emperor
never smiles on his subjects as he
passes, but looks into every eye on
both sides of the beautiful street with
an expression of agony on his face,
but proud light in his eye, as though
he would say, ZACH, Colt, but they are
daisies, and they would fight for the
Fatherland with the last breath in
their bodies
The pride of the people in that
moustached young man, with the look
of suffering, is only equalled by the
pride of the emperor in every German
In Germany, or anywhere on the face
of the globe. There is none of the
"Hello Bill" such as we have in
America, when the president drives
through his people; many of them
yell, Hello Teddy" while he shows his
teeth and laughs and stands up in his
carriage, and says Hello Mike" as
he recognizes an acquaintance. But
these same Hello Bill" Americans are
probably just as loyal to their chief,
wherever he may be, and would fight
as hard as the loving Germans would
for their hereditary emperor.
suppose there is somebody working
in Berlin, but 1t seems to us that the
whole population, so far as can be
seen, is bent on enjoying every minute,
walking the streets, in good clothes,
giving military salutes, and drinking
beer between meals, and talking about
what Germany would do to an enemy
If the ever-present chip on the shoulder
should be knocked of, even accident
ally. But they all seem to love Amer
lea, and when we registered at The
hotel, from Milwaukee, Wis, U. 8. A.,
citizens began to gather around us and
ask about relatives at our home. They
seem to think that every German who
has settled in Milwaukee owns brew
cry, and that all are rich, and tnat
some day they will come back to Ger
many and spend the money and fight
for the emperor.
We did not have the heart to tell
them that all the Germans in Mil
waukee were going to stay there and
spend their money, and while their
hearts were still warm towards the
Fatherland, they loved the Stars and
Stripes and would fight for the Amer
lean flag against the world, and that
the younger Germans spoke the Ger
man language, IL at all, with Yankee
accent. Gee, but wouldn't the people
of Berlin be hot under the collar II
they knew how many Germans In
America were unfamiliar with the
make up OF the German flag. and that
they only see 1t occasionally, when
some celebration Of German days takes

Well, when dad saw the German
emperor drive down the great street
and got look AT his face. he said
"Hennery, I have got to see that youns
