By the Rev. Thomas B. Gregory Coppright, 1018, by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York Brening Workt) HE National Zeitung of Berlin says: “President Wileon has answered quickly, Well, if ever Emperor William’s invocation that God be with him {s in season, it fs right now." Aa a Right! It ts now or never with the Kalser. Unless the “good old German Gott” lends a hand immediately, and lends it with a vim, he will have placed the Hohengollern Crown on Williams head in vain. The soldiers of the Allies have no particle of respect for the Kaiser, the Hohenzoljern Crown or the good old German Gott; and unless the War Lord finds assistance from some source, and finds it quickly, he wiil 6ee “Ichabod” written over the doorway of his house, And I don't believe that he is going to get the much-needed help. The g00d old German Gott is a myth, invented by the Kaiser and his royal fore- bears for political and other purposes, and cannot help anybody; and as for tae God of the Universe, it is next to absolute certainty that He has much worthier uses for His power than that of bolstering up the villainous despotiem 6f the Hohengollern rule. The whole truth in @ nutshell fe simply this, the Kaiser has had his In vulgar parlance, he ts a “dead one.” That he has aad a long day, and a great day, no one can deny. He has not only been the “man on horseback,” but he has been riding the highest horse that monarch has mounted for a full thousand years. In fact, as a magnifier of his office and a tooter of the royal horn, the only one at all worthy of being compared with him is old Xerxes, who ordered the Hellespont to be chained and the waves of the sea to be thrashed. It was only a little while ago—some five or six years—that William announced it as his purpose so to arrange things in this great big world that nothing could be done, anywaere, until it had first received the “O. K.” of the German Emperor. It was only a short time back that he said, “There is but one man tn Germany whose word is law, and that men {is myself. As the Indian would say, “that was some big talk,” and no one who has any proper idea of the fitness of things will feel like shedding tears over the Kaiser's discomfiture, Personally, it will do him lots of good to eat a good big slice of “hum- we pie” and drink pretty deeply of the aters of affliction.” He de. eerves it. And when we stop to think of all the trouble and misery that this man’s high-headedness has made in the world; the scores of millions of “killed, wounded and missing;” the hundreds of millions of widows and orphans, to say nothing of the beautiful towne and cities destroyed, with all their artistic treasures—treasures that cannot be replaced—and the billions of money sunk that might have been used for better purposes—when we think of all this, verily, we are not a bit sorry for the Kaiser's fall.

"Maybe you're right, Mr. Graham, but I wonder if 1 oughtn’t to go further and take you all.” Graham smiled uncomfortably, but Bobby knew why the official failed to follow that radical course, Like Howells, he hesitated to remove from the Cedars the person most likely to solve its mystery, As long as a chance remained that Howells had been right about Hobby he would give Silas Blackburn's grandson his head, merely making sure, as he had done this morning, that there should be no escape, He glanced up. “L wonder if our foreigner’s laugh- ing at me now," Graham made a movement toward the door, “We might,” ho said significantly, “find that out without disturbing him.” Kobinson nodded and led the way silently back to the house, Such & method was repugnant to Bobby, and he followed at a distance, Then he saw from the movements of the two men ahead that the library had again offered unexpected, and he en- tered 3 was no longer in the room.

He came pre- cipitately down, His eyes were dan- gerous, As Bobby watched the fa whose quiet had at last been tempes- tuously destroyed, he felt that the man was capable of anything under sufficient provocation, “Got me for what?” he snarled, “Tell us why you were snegking up there, In connection with your little excursion before dawn it sug- gests a guilty knowledge aredes straightened.
