It is ( called d“The Kaiser: His Personal- . jity an.

After all, the Kaiser was born a human being even though he has developed into a monster. The process or this «development is worthy the attention 01 those Who really desire to understand his- tory instead of merely dogmatiz- ing or raving about it. . ihe kaiser has been written up- reigned; but there is certainly room for this one added book of Mr. iVlcC'abe is unusually modest for a historical biographer: he actually admits that them are things concerning Wilhelm Which are known to Wilhelm alone, and actions or the kaiser that only the kaiser himself-and perhaps not the kaiserâ€"could explain. sir. ivicc‘abe does not expect these "grave questions; and ii he does probably his declarations \sil. be even less honest than the candid Coriessions or napoleon." nor 1: stance, has the kaiser in his own mind always been the ruthless War-god, simply posing as a iriend of peace till his time should come, or Was he col;â€" \'erted lately to the need or war, or dragged into war by his boist- erous ouspring, and the gang who manipulated that impetuous and rather brainless creature, the crown prince? it is quaint just now, when rival journalists are digging up one another’s fuisome idolatries oi the kaiser and his cuterie by way or proving their own remarkable presCience, to recall with Mr. Mc- L‘abe the undoubted fact that "un- tlll 1:66an years most DOORS about the kaiser were childishly uncriti- cal songs 01' praise” that until 1909 there were more critical works about him in Germany than in England . . .”° that “for nearly twenty years he has had to endure in his own country a stream 01' criticism and ridicule which was kept in check only by drastic p01- ice pressure.” The Truth About ' - the Kaiser’s Birth and Boyhood "Undeniaoly the kaiser opened. this appainng struggle in Europe," ; writes our author; "and just as undeniably he is responsioie for the infamous poucy pursued us“! his troops. it is, therefore, ratur-- a1 to thirk that he has merely cast ' aside his humanitarian mask, and outside Germany it is usuai to ' assume that he is and always wasI corrupt.” But whether this is so* or not, we have to rememberâ€"and ‘ 1 think it makes the mystery more ' difficult to probeâ€"that he was “fter all the son of an English' womanâ€"one of the best princesses of our royal houseâ€"and of an ex-g ceptionally humane Prussian.” 1 “His left arm has been paralyzed or atrOphied since birth. The DC- lite biographers inform us that the physician who presided at his birth was unskilful, and that his clumsinessl ed to an accident which in some mysterious 'way, ruined the child’s left arm. Except the Socialists, who have repaid With some very plain speaking the Era- peror’s viturpation of them, the German’s seem to be quite recon- ciled to‘this remarkable fable: as if a prospective heir to - the throne of Prussia would be usher- ed into the world with a clumsi- ness ‘whiichIâ€"‘if it could happen at alléwould not happen to one'in a million peasant babies.” .â€".:..‘ ~ The simple truth seems to be that, from~ the Hohenzollern side Wilhelm received a legacy 0f fliseaseâ€"syphilitic or tuberculosis. or cancerous. “It is quite plain”. states Mr. McC‘abe. “that the ner- vous svstem of little Fritz was. congenitally tainted -and this mav is Wilhelm a throwback to the Hohenzollerns of less civilizej days? If it were not that thlS present War of rival civilizations is the most brutal and inhuman in history, one might the more read- iI’): jump to that conclusion. 1f you'asked the first dozen fairly educated Englishmen you met what is the full name of the kaiser, eleven of them, i imagine. would get it wrong. It is Fred- erick William Victor Albert. Until 'is later teens he was known in the domestic circles as “Fritz.” Why he abandoned his first and proper name, in spite of his immense ad- miration for Frederick the Great, and has chosen to call himself William, “he has never deigned to explain. . . perhaps his un- happy relations with his father, who was named Frederick, - will explain 1t.” The “Victor Albert” reminded Germany and himself too plainly no doubt, of his English blood: anyway, it was “long ago buried deep in the dust of the family archives.” Everybody knows that there is something wrong with the kaiser’s left arm; but few people are ex- actly informed as to what it is, or how it arose. Mr. McCabe attrib- utes great importance to this de- feet; 3 Although in many particulars a 'most admirable man, the kaiser‘s {father had in him that “yello v’f :streak which seems to us to-uay iso peculiarly German. He deceiv- |ed his Liberal friends as to his real ;opinions as much as his son ic- ceive'l Lord Haldane. After Frui- eric’s death the novelist, Frayug, ‘proved that Frederic secreL_;.' dreamed very similar dreams to those which Wilhelm to-d‘ay is .trying to realize by blood and iron. Wrench macf'm'!

William solemnly wrote the. passage. One day. dis- cussing France. he said hp "would” be 'a‘ republican if he lived there: but anbther day. talking of the nromnt recovery of‘ France after 1870.

After his death, the kaiser permit- tea Bismark to assert in print that roilowing the Franco-Prussian war, the German statesman h .1 ueen unligea to exciuue b‘l'euci‘" ick from their counseis necause he communicated facts to his Wu who sent them to Engianu. whence they were given to the French _ __â€"v â€" .. ‘J'V‘A Bismark quoted Marshal Bazaum as his authority; and BaZaine ae- niea that he had said anything of the kind. But the kaiser kept silent; and. he has never defended the memory of his parents in this matter at_ariy time. The kaiser was eleven years old when the empire was founded° and until he was fifteen he lived at home, being fed on plain foou â€"-his mother made the nursery cakes herselfâ€"and allowed [J play with the children of commer- ers. At this time We hear of him as fond of his mother; straight. amiable and affectionate, a little inclined to temper, but learning to control it. He liked to read Fenni- more Cooper, play at Red Indians and sail a model frigate on the lake. But no public school could rid William of the 'ieeling, carefully encouraged by his circle, that he was a boy apart. He worked hardâ€"he has always worked hard at anything he has undertaken: but he was not clever. He could not get above tenth in a class of seventeen boys. His brother, Hen- ry, now head of the German spy system, was with him, and was blunt and idle and mischievous. He had a military tutor when he was six; and he was made a second lieutenant when he Was ten. As he grew up one Hinzpeter who had charge of him for a while, hoped to make him into an ideal ruler with a keen sense of responsibility to his office. He was the first German prince to go to a “public” school; it was the middle-class school at Cassel. His mother wanted to get him out of the court ruts and into touch with the peOple. Except that his class was not to be larger than 21 boys, he was to be treated just like the rest and he was. He fought with snowballs, and_ he shocked the palace by bringlng 2‘1 Jew boy to stay with him at home for a few days. ne nVcs booeny. .Lnus up a powemm frame ‘pxonuswg oegmmngs. “13:... ..----â€"â€"- 45 Lo Ltd; L 4'0“: un- THE PROPERTY OF ’ THE LATE Philip Eva, in the tOWn of Dur- ham‘ For terms and: particulars apply to J.P.
