DECREPIT AND DESPONDENT.
SELF-PITY] XO WILHEL.M
LONDON, Jan. 5,
The Berlin "Tageblatt" describes the ex-Kaiser in exile as boing much filtered. TJio trembling of his right arm and leg has greatly increased, and now dominates his whole appearance. He is growing stout despite the fact that lie eats very little. He speaks slowly, this being in striking contract, to his old vivacity. He wakes up only when old memories rerall the dead past.
Often in the midst of conversation his face becomes a blank, and his gazo wanders, though sometimes when he is in good spirits lie argues freely and shows his old decision. He no longer desires to return to Germany. He regards the Germans as lost, and believes lie has been deceived, betrayed, and deserted by fhe people and his advisors. —A. and N.Z.
