German travellers are relating the following story, says the London Tele- graph, which is going the rounds of the German Empire. Emperor Wil- liam recently expressed the desire to inspect a regiment which had par- ticularly distinguished itself at Ver dun, and 'ordered it to be drawn up outside his headquarters in the neighborhood of the French fortress on-the following morning: The same day the regiment participdted in an- other furious encounter which wrought terrible havoc in its ranks, and when next morning the kaiser stepped forward to inspect the regi- ment he only found a small band of thirty haggard soldiers saluting him. "But where is the regiment?" de- manded the emperor, in surprise, without for a moment enlising the position. "This js the vogiment. sir commanding officer replied. At this the emperor broke down and wept like a child, and the in- spection of the regiment yas pomn- poned. Replied the ; After the War.

The programme of vaudeville and photoplays presented at the Grand | Opera House yesterday afternoon is; without doubt, the best seen for some time. The five-reel photoplay drama featuring that well-knpwn actress, Theda Bara in 'The Eternal Sapho.™} is a most excellent subject. - A three-| | reel Universal photoplay, 'Lord {John's Journal," a comedy picture, | "Flirting With Marriage," the Pathe News and a Pathe comedy, "Them Wag the Happy.Days," concluded the picture end of the bill, and was im-| mensely pleasing The vaudeville consisted of McCormick and Shan- non in a high-class 8inging and musi- | cal act. Both have excellent voices, | and their singing of the different Irish songs was very much enjoyed. Mr. McCormick also rendered some very fine selections on the violin. Nettie Wright, in a singing act, ren- dered her - different selections in splendid style. This same bill to- night, Saturday afternoon and even- ing.

A New Policy. The Strand, beginning Monday, will put on vaudeville in addition to first run photoplays. Two separate operatic and musical stars will ap- pear. Read, about them on Satdir- day.
