THE KAISER’S DAY. The bolief of sonio of the Kaiser's critics that His Majesty tries to do too in licit lends additional interest to an article which appears in an American magazine on the. Kaiser’s day. William 11. is accustomed to rise early—often before daybreak. Ho exercises with heavy dumb-bells, dons a General’s uniform —-the Hohenzolierns pride themselves on never wearing dressing growns —and eats an English breakfast. Then ho receives his adjutants in his study, receives their reports, and dictates correspondence to his secretaries, walking up and down qiickly as lie does so. After this he reads newspaper clippings cut for him from German and foreign papers, and makes marginal notes, after which the cuttings are returned to the officials from which they came. Punctually between nine and ten he rides or walks —(other alone or with the Empress—in the Thiergarten, and then goes to the Chancellor’s palace for the 'dailv conference. From the Chancellery the Kaiser is thriven back to his palace for his with the Court Marshal. Then he receives reports from the civil and military Cabinets. At two ho lunches, then spends a couple of hours in Ins study, with interruptions, and then rides, or visits Ambassadors or the studios of artists. At five he becomes a private citizen. In the evening music is the favorite occupation, while his Majesty is also fond of playing . “skat,” and reading aloud. Usually he retires between ten and eleven. This is only a bare sketch of the Kaiser’s work. Ho keeps the closest eye on the Reichstag and the Prussian House, receiving oven while travelling constant reports of the proceedings. Ministers expect at all times to be rung up on the telephone. When the Kaiser uses the telephone he expects to he recognised by his voice, and the telephone officials must stand some distance away. The enormous amount of < work he gets through is only possible by a healthful mode of life, and a reasonable division of working hours. His critics complain that he tries to “run” the whole German Empire, to bo King of Prussia, to play a leading part in international politics, anil to dabble in art and literature, at the same time, and that flesh and blood cannot accomplish so much. Judging, however, from the election returns the people do not seem to think so. In short he is a “ thoroughly up-to-date monarch and a ‘hustler’ in the best sense of the word. He has rightfully been called a Yankee on a throne.
