BERLIN, January 26-The emperor and
empress, Crown Prince Frederick William
and the crown princess, Prince Henry of
Prussia and some twenty other German
royal personages spent last evening at the
French embassy, where they were enter
!! tanned with a striking example of French
dramatic and operate art.

day devoted by the kaiser to French art
in various forms.
Early in the day the kaiser opened an
exhibition Of French eighteenth century

vice president of the Academic des
Beaux Arts. head Of the French delega-
ton. with the Order of the Red Eagle,
first class, with star.
Ambassador and Nine. Cambon had
given much thought to last nights en-
tertainment About two hundred guests
We're present, but these included none of
lower rank than the ambassadors and
their wives, among whom were the Amer
lean ambassador, David Jayne Hill. and
Mrs. Hill.
The members of the imperial cabinet
also were present. The members of the
Prussian cabinet Were not invited, as the
embassy is too small to accommodate
all whom the French ambassador would
have wished to honor.
The event is regarded as having
political meaning. This is the first time
that the emperor has visited the French
embassy since the period of the Algeciras
conference, and the first time the empress
has visited the embassy since she was
crown princess.
