 In a speech which the kaiser de liN cred when his health was proposed at the state dinner his majesty said that he was glad and proud of the record of peace which Germany had maintained under his rule and he as CIihed this entirely to her being ever rr, pared for war and just little better prepared than were the nations who were jealous of her. He men tioned the new Panama canal about tn be opened by the United States and said that it meant another great expansion of German trade which was 9 matter very dear to his heart. Al ready said the emperor. Germany had taken most of the trade of the east erl coast of South America away from hel two great commercial rivals. meaning Great Britain and the Uni trd States and with the opening of the new route to the Pacific che would soon be able to dominate the trade If the west coast of the same coun- try. This commercial expansion of the fatherland was the thing dearest tu his heart and he would exert every energy to keeping the nation in it's place as the leading provider of the v orld.

 The emperor has maintained the amy in the highest state of etncicncv and has had continual fight with his, legislators to do so. but even his sCverest critics cannot accuse him Of seeking war needlessly and the pre- paredness which he has insisted upon Germany maintaining at all times has been the undoubted reason for the cmperors long and peaceful reign.
 The celebration of the emperot's birthday began with a service in the imperial chapel which was attended by his majesty and the members of the immediate family. with the cNcep- tion of the crown prince who was roticeably absent although his wife was present with the empress
 Immediately after the service in th" chapel the emperor accompanied hy his staff rode to the parade ground outside the city where a review of tho seventh army corps had been ar ranged
 During the course of the review tho emperor presented a stand of colors to the first regiment of the guard, and several officers If rank receivc, decorations from the hand of the ru' CT Among these was General Cour' von Walersee, son of the officer wh, commanded the German forces iu China during the Boxer campaign
