BRILLIANT State
DINNER FOR
EMPEROR WILLIAM

Windsor, Eng. Nov. 13.-One of the
most brilliant state dinners of King Ed
wards reign was given In the historic
Hall OF st. George. Windsor Castle. last
night In honor OF Emperor William and
the other German visitors.
Previous TO the dinner Herr Won schoen.
secretary OF the German foreign Of
fee. who is member OF the kaisers
entourage on the trip, made an impor-
tant statement. which is believed to have
been inspired by the many rumors rela-
remarkable honors shown to the Ger
man sovereign.
There IS no intention of discussing
at windsor any concrete political ques-
ton, said Herr Won Sheen. Germany
and England are in the happy position
Of having no actual political questions
outstanding but We hope and believe
that the emperor's visit will bring about
renewal of the old-time affectionate
relations between the two countries.
'Their relations have always been cor
rect, but this is not enough. There is
an increasing desire that they become
something more. Germany does not look
for any specially defined political agree
ment or understanding that might give
rise to apprehensions in the case Of any
other power.
My hope simply is that the relations
between the two governments may be-
come more closely assimilated to the not
only correct. but affectionate. relations
existing between the reigning houses
The Hall OF St George, where last
nights dinner was held. for centuries
has been associated with the Order of
the Garter. 1t was decorated with the
banners Of the principal knights of the
order, while the tables were adorned
with the famous golden plate. one of the
great heirlooms OF the sovereigns OF
England.
Departing from the usual custom, King
Edward and Emperor William sat side
by side, with the queen on the right and
the empress on the left. Around the
tables, which We're set for 130 guests.
there was gathered most notable COM
pany,. including many members of the

dors and other diplomatic representa-
lives Among the ambassadors was
Whitelaw Reid
King Edward proposed the health OF
Emperor William, who made acknowledg-
! ment In short speech. closing with a
| toast to the English king
The speeches made by King Edward
and Emperor William were formal In

easy for me.
He was as pleased as a boy when
finally we put the gloves on, and L began
TO teach him what 10 do with them. OF
course, the first thing TO show him was
how blows might be parried. i told him to
hit me- He was timid about Il and did not
try very hard at first but j encouraged
him TO go at me. When he did so and 1
parried or side-stepped or ducked and he
was not able TO touch me, he grew amaZ-
ed and wanted 10 know how each thing
was done. So / showed him, and even
before that lesson was over he had
grasped many of the principles of the

Lessons went on for three weeks. 1
taught him how TO hit I'm a way to over
come a parry, and finally he caught me a
good blow In the stomach. i made fake
fall and I'm moment he was apologiZing.
I laughed and showed him my stomach
muscles and asked him to hit as hard
as he could At first ho would not, then
he finally went at me and found that he
hurt his hand more than my stomach.
That astonished him. / don't suppose he

life, in that way at least. l couldn {

'Then l had to explain what that meant
and how Corbett had been Knocked out
by FitZsmmons by solar plexus blow,
and he wanted to hear of other prize

him.

and once he made my nose bleed. In an
instant he was all apologies, but when I
told him That that was part OF the game
he was delighted.
zone day l showed him an uppercut,
and after he had practiced on me for a
while he suddenly turned on one OF his
officers and give him one and knocked
him down. That tickled him Immensely
