NAAIERoNGEN, March 23.-"when

asked this question Of young
Count Iohn Beatinck while we were
standing in front of the quaint little
woodshed near the castle of Ameron-
gen, where the erstwhiIe ruler Of the
German empire he'd just completed q
strenuous three hours exercise with
his saw.
Count Bentinck smiled and said: II
suppose when he is ready"
From another source l learned that
the ex-Kaiser has on several occa-
sions. recently expressed a desire TO
break the three months silence he
has kept since his abdication, but
that he was dissuaded from doing so
by his advisers.
Meantime, the townsfolk and others
round about this picturesque Dutch
village which has so suddenly become
VIGOROUSLY famous are busy with
rumor. Some say they have it on eX-
ccllent authority that the former EN-
peror is writing his defense for pub
LEGATION at the conclusion of the peace
conference: others say he is debating
tho advisability Of returning to Spa
and surrenderilg himself to the ar
mistice commission; still there are a
few who declare he is simply biding
his time with a view Of returning to
Germany triumphantly when the mo-
ment seems opportune:
None Too Happy In Exile.
Whatever the facts are, it is certain
that the head Of the house of HOhcn-
zollern is none too happy in exile. To
be penned up in a Veritable prison
unable to move without its narrow
confines, his only physical diversion
that of saving wood. seems to be a
travesty upon genius which soon
must end-even if il leads to the gal
lows!
Napoleon at st. Helena was perhaps
far less a prisoner than his Would-be
imitator is in his Dutch retreat to-
day. Napoleon at least enjoyed the
company of some of those who had
been associated with him in his mad
ambition to conquer Europe. The
ex-Kaiser not only does not enjoy
this privilege. but is actually witness
ing the spectacle of his own house
hold dwindlinG alarmingly in num-
bers. First, it was the officers Of his
personal staff who left Amerongen;
now his barber has gone. and he, in
turn, has been followed by others
all returning to the fatherland, which
their former Emperor is forbidden to
re-enter.
