METHODS OF THE KAISER.
When William Wants Information He
 Just Simply Cots It.

It is a well known fact that. often becoming interested in some subject. Kaiser William summons the greatest authority on the subject and gets the latest information in the quickest way.
 The empelor. so the story goes, sum- moned Professor IIarnack. the re- nowned theoIogian, and asked him some technical questions-say, the lat est news on the antiquity of the book of John The kaiser is known to be d specialist in rcfuting higher criti- cism. so perhaps the question was even more technical.
 He and Harnack indulged ill spir- clock brained private secretary inter- rupted to tell his majesty that he had an appointment for the next half hour with Prince SO.and-so. The enperor's face couded. "Wlere ain l tomorrow night?" he asked. Your majesty dimes with Count so-and-so." Then turning to the theologian the emperor said. "Well. shall see you again and finish the discussion.'
 The next day Professor Harnack re- ceived an invitation from the count who was entertaining the kaiser. and although he was not acquainted with his host he accepted. At dinner he found himself sitting next to the en- peror, who immediately resumed the theological discussion where it had been left off the day before. And this time 1t was fnished.-Chicago News.

cavalry, dashfng' bayonet attacks or rapid counter movements by infantry in mass. Such things for which the public imagination is eager are not happen ing just now What is happening is a bowling gale shrieIing across the dunes and swirling up the sands into blind ing clouds and tearing across the flat marshlands as if all the invisible gods of the old ghost world were playing at racing in their chariots.
 'Tn the trenches along the Yser men crouch down close to the moist mud to shelter themselves from the wind, which is harder to dodge than shrapnel shells. It lashes them with fierce cruelty.
 .'In spite of all the woolen comforters and knitted vests, made by women's hands at home. the wind finds it's way through to the bones and marrow of the soldiers so that they are nuInbed.
 At night it is an agony of cold. pre- venting sleep even if men could sleep while shells are searching for them with their cry of death
 'tThe gunners have dug pits for them selves. and when they cease fire for the time they crawl to the shelter, smoking through little outlets in damp blankets in which they have wrapped their heads and shoulders They tie bundles of straw around their legs to keep out the cold and pack old news papers inside their clothing as breast plates and swear to keep themselves warm at least in imagination
 tsThe wind gave a new horror to this war. There was something devilish in its bowling. in it's long angry roar. as l it came with enormous force across the
 flats and then hurled itself against the

 The crown prince was born on May 6, 1882s His military education was be- gun when he was fourteen years old, and he was cadet at one of the Ger man military schools for four years. He became a lieutenant in 1900 and had risen to coloneIcy just before war was declared.
 He was married on June. 6, 1905, to Princess CeciIie of Mecklenburg- Sctwerin. and they have had four sons. the oldest of whom was born on July 4, 1906. and the youngest in December. 1912.

 ssAt IntervaIs Che whole horizon was illuminated by waves of vivid splendor which shone. for some moments upon the blanched faces of men, who waited for death. High above the witcillil<e howlings of the wind furIes came the shrilIy whfstIing notes of the shells like .nightbiEds, rushing through the storm in search of prey.
 'sThe guns of the allied batteries an- swered back roar echoing roar. The thunderclasps of the wind were less loud than the concussions of gunfire and yet mingled with them and pro. 1onged them and became apart of the storm of deadly sound increasing the horror of war. Through the darkness along the road infantry tramped to- ward the lines of trenches to relieve other regiments who had endured a spell in them.
 They bent their heads low, thrust ing forward into the heart of the gale, which tore at the blue coats of those Frenchnen and plucked at. their red trousers and sIashed in their faces with cruel whips. Their sidearms jtngled against the teeth of the wind which tried to snatch at their bayonets and drag the rifles out of their grip.
 They never raised their heads to glance at the Red Cross carts coming back"
 Another correspondent writes:
 "The cry for he1p-for doctors, nurses, litter bearers and medicaments--is ur- gent beyond any language can com mand. The Red Cross forces are strug- gling day and night, eating while at work and sleeping scarcely at all. Hun dreds of wounded are dying from ex- posture and lack of care.
 Nevertheless, the life and death struggle continues almost without inter ruption, piling up the human wreckage. The opposing armies fight until ex- hausted and then lie watching each other. shortly to resume the slaughter, the determination of the French and English invariably finding itself in con tact with like quality on the other side. It fills one with a growing won- der.

In spite of an his vagaries, we learn tbat he is popu- liar throughout Germany, totally de- void of '1side'' and the keenest sort l of sportsman. Moreover. and this ia
