Scared by AerOplane
The kaiser was. with the empress
and DR. Forester. taking a stroll in
the grounds, when the hum OF the
aeroplane's motors was heard. Will
helm became startled, and displayed
great nervousness. Both the kaiser
in and the doctor endeavored to
calm him and persuade him that
there was no danger. since the aero
plane was a Dutch craft. At that
moment the pilot Of the machine
came swoOping down until he was
within q few hundred feet of the
ground The 'ex-kaiser was seized
with madness.

he tore himself away from the side
of the ex-kaiserin and rushed blind

his intentions might be. DR. Forester

the castle. and induced him 10 go TO

was obliged to administer a drug
which sent him to sleep.
The doctor never left his bedside
that night. keeping the fallen war
lord in state of sleep by inject
ing drugs.
In the morning the eX-kaiser was
weak and worn. His mind was far
from stable, and in his conversation
he was rambling. His thoughts were
fixed upon aeroplanes. and plots to
kill him. and his gaze was continual
ly in the direction Of the windows.
while at the least sound he started
violently.
Threatening Letters.
During the time, he continually
spoke of letters which had been re-
ceived at the castle. and which con-
tanned threats to murder him. How
the ex-kaiser knew that any letters
had actually been received threat
ening his life, is a mystery. Certain
ly many letters of this nature were
received at the castle, and 1 might
add, are still being received. but the
greatest care was always exercised
to prevent the knowledge from
reaching him, so that one must
conclude his ramblings regarding
the letters was merely a natural Sc
quence of events.
In the hope that IL would be pos
sible to prevent any further shock to
Wilhelm's nervous system, orders
were given to the officer in charge

The EX-kaiscr's Nerves.
The facts regarding this attack on

from the members Of the household,
none We're permitted TO hear of It..
Even the two old people who were
turned out of their house and home
were never told the real reason for
the search of their house. or of their
being sent away. All that they were
permitted 10 know was that bombs
had been found. and that Elsa

The effect IF the bomb attack up
on the nerves of the ex-kaiser was

attacks seized him in various ways

The knowledge that Wilhelm was

the village. and the report quickly
spread that he had attempted to
commit suicide. There was. nor ever
has been any foundation for the
statement that Wilhelm OF Hohen-
zolIern has made any attempt on his
life.
Ea-Empress' Affection.
During his illness. the kaiserin
was always with the kaiser. and dis
played great anxiety as TO his con
dition. She would sit for hour after
hour at the bedside of her husband.
and all her meals were taken in his
room A more devoted wife could
not have been found throughout
Holland No longer was court ETH
quette observed, all barriers were
now broken down. Who could have
believed that this worn and broken
man, white haired and stricken with
sickness. tended lovingly by a de-
voted wife who showered affection
upon him. was less than l. months
before the Terror OF the World. :"
Exile has taught Wilhelm much. II
has brought husband and wife very
close together. and the bonds which
now bind them have been welded in
trials and afflictiOn.
The ex-empress was never tired
of tending her husband. and would
read TO him for long periods from
the scriptures, and from works by
German Divines. At times, when the
ex-emperor was regaining his
strength. ne would take the book
from his wife's--hands and read
aloud TO her The Dutch and Ger
man newspapers always afforded
the ex-kaiser a great amount OF
pleasure. He was ever following
closely the course OF events in the
Fatherland, and would discuss them
with the ex-kaiserin and members
of his suite
During the ex-kaiser's illness the
empress took to knitting while she
was sitting at his bedside. And since
his recovery she has become quite
an expert with the needles Most of
her time Is now spent in knitting
socks. scarfs. gloves and little
wooden coats. As showing her kind
ness Of heart, the ex-empress asked
that the needs Of poor and deserving
children. should be told her. and
there are many little mites in AM
erongen during the coming winter
who will be clad in warm garments
which were made by the hands OF
the ex-empress.
1t must not. however, be assumed
during the weeks which the ex-
kaiser was i'll that all interest in
events outside the narrow limits OF
the castle disappeared. Far from the
casei but. owing TO his illnessA the
ex-kaiser was not permitted 10 know
Of the happenings. DR.. Forester,
with Prof. LAM. n prominent Dutch
surgeon, constituted themselves the
guardians of the fallen monarch,
and would allow none to approach
him without their consent.
ROsen Frequent Visitor.
DIR. Rosen was a frequent visitor
to the castle. and for hours this Ger
man diplomat would remain in CON
sultation with the members of the
ex-emperor's suite. Literally, thou

received, and those which il was
considered necessary for the eX-
kaiser to see were locked in a desk
