HOMAGE is PAID
LATE KAISERIN
Princess Hermine to Place
Wreath on Grave.

BU THHCd Press
BERLIN, April 11.-Today, for the
first time, Princess Hermine, wife of
the eX-kaiser, will be among the
mourners to place a wreath above
the grave of the late eX-kaiserin,
first wife of Wilhelm II.
The present Lady of Doom is ex-
pected to arrive with the other
members Of the Hohenzollern fam
lily to observe the eighth anniversary
of the late empress death.
But the Hohenzollerns will not be
the only mourners. The Antique
Temple" the little chapel in Sans
Souci Park, shrining the ashes of
the erstwhile German empress, will
be the goal of thousands and thou
sands of German patriots.
When, on April "a, 1921, the NOR
tai remains of Augusta Victoria
we're brought from exile in Holland
to repose in German soil, 100000
came to bid their deceased empress
farewell.
Then it was thought that the de-
votion of the people would soon
Wane.
But every year, on the anniver-
sary of her death, multitudes throng
the paths of Sans Couci Park, wait
ing their turn to file past the sar-
cophagus and pay silent homage to
the dead Mother of the Country"
