AS the soldier Kaiser showed himself
there were three laundering cheers,
then silence. The Chancellor knelt be-
fore the throne and gave to the Kaiser
the sheets upon which his address was
written. The Kaiser's long hair seemed
very white and the expression on his
face was quiet and very earnest.
As the Kaiser began his address the
Kaiserin stood up in the royal box. The
Kaiser spoke in voice that sounded as
II he were commanding an army, and
his tones grew in volume until he
reached the part OF his speech about the
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and their
earlier friendship and also his friend
ship for the Car. Then his tone be-
came softer, but afterward he again re-
sufned the voice OF war lord as he APP
pealed to his people.
