KAISER IN EXILE.
LIVING A DEAD PAST. REGARDS GERMANS AS LOST. London, Jan. 5. The Berliner Tageblatt describes the Kaiser in exile as much altered. The trembling in his right arm and leg has greatly increased and now dominates the Kaiser’s whole frame. In appearance he grows stouter, though he eats very little. He speaks slowly, in striking contrast to his old vivacity, and only wakes up when old memories recall the dead past. Often in the midst of conversation Bis face becomes blank and his gaze wanders, though sometimes when his good spirits are aroused he freely shows his old decision, but he no longer desires to return to Germany. He regards the Germans as lost and believes that he has been deceived, betrayed and deserted by the people and his advi sers.
FLOODS ON THE RHINE. THREATEN AMERONGEN. Amsterdam. Jan. 5. , A rising of the Rhine is threatening Amerongen Castle. The Kaiser is busily engaged in carrying wood to the menaced parts of the castle walls. The floods are the highest for forty rears. Water has destroyed a hundred and fifty million bricks in the brickyards of the district.
