Shows Vigor of Young Man.

Half an hour after the appointed time
the kaiser arrived in lean. gray auto
mobile. He sprang from the car with
the visor of a young man. He wore
the helmet Of general of infantry, but
the tall boots, coming in front high
above the knee, of a cuirassier. He
cast from his shoulders the long gray
cape with fur collar in which he is
shown in his favorite pictures, and with
stride of long steps, lifting each foot
high from the ground his majesty
walked toward that end of the forma-
tion where the band stood. His STAN
dard bearers, who always walk behind
with his flag, had their work cut out

After making the rounds of three
SIDES OF the square the emperor turned
and strobe to the center to chat with
the various high officers gathered there.
and then began to pin orders and
medals on the breasts of the chosen
few.
1t was only after the ceremony was
ended that correspondents standing at
a little distance had a chance to see
his, majesty at close range and to get
good look at his scanned and lined,
but strong. healthy. vigorous face
New Troops Show Nervousness.
After the decorating the kaiser walk
ed to the roadway that leads by the
chateau, then faced about and prepared
to review the troops. Most Of them
were new troops. probably few had
ever: marched by their emperor before,
and 1t was possible to detect some
nervousness But they paraded in the
goose-step as bravely and as stiffly as
ever did a like set of men on the Tenn
pelhofer field.
The commander made the customary
address In which he pledged loyalty to
his majesty and firm determination to
fight on. His; voice rose and fell with
emotion. and what he said obviously
affected the emperor. The kaiser an
swered in a voice that from a distance
was hard to understand, though it was
silver clear and more highly pitched
than that of his general. The soldiers.
however, could hear it. and their faces
glowed as their emperor thanked them.
The parade ended as abruptly as it
began. The emperor. hastily donning
his fur-collared cape, sprang back into
his gray limousine and was off.
