Count Bernstein, councillor and first
secretary to the German embassy, has
paid a very pretty compliment to the
king on behalf of Germans in England.
The occasion was the eighty-seventh
anniversary dinner of the German So
ciety of Benevolence at De Keyser's s.
hotel. In proposing the kings health
Count Bernstein spoke of him as a
monarch who has won with his own
people, as with all the nations of the
world, the name of a prince of peace.
King Edward is necessarily endeavor-
ing to bring nations more closely to-
gether and to clear away misunder-
standings between them. None are
better able to appreciate this concilia-
tory activity on the part of his maj
esty than the Germans who make their
residence in this country and who live
here happy and contented life"
