A BAD BOY PRINCE

Our despntclies recently told of :i violc-nt. quarrel hc-

twcen the Kaiser and his hopeful son, the (‘roii-ii l’i~inct- \\'ilhelni, over the method ot' conducting the war against the Allii-s. There ls no way by ivliicli thi- ni-ws can lit-_ conflrini-<l at present, but ii' it is true it is not the first time tliiit_ the Kaiser and his son have been at loggerlieads. The heir to the German Empire has never taken kindly to parental restraint. Indeed in any other position than that of (.‘roivii Prince he would unhesltatlngly be dubbed :i "bad boy" and zi scapi-grace.

It is on record that he has engageil in hare-braineil ox-

plolts, such as lending ii baiiti of Ilussar officers in n gal- lop tip palace steps and driving an automobile along the public highway at the rate of 510 odd miles an hour. i\’hat is more, the Crown Prince has been at times extraordin- arily iiiilisureet in his languagi- und actions in public and has in ifonseiluence brought eiiburrassnii-iit to statesmen as well as to his sire. The latter on ont- oi-i-.zisioii was heard to remark that young Wilhelm was rattling thi- sabre too inucli. Iiis worst offence to diploinacy, however, was his action in public tit the time of thi- illoroccnn affair of 1911. Von Iietliniann-llollweg had acted with iiioileratioii to- wards Great Britain and the militant part of the .German population were accusing him of i-oivai'dicc. llerr Von Hey- debranil, the (foiiservative leader, spoke- in thc Iteichstag for those who favored taking tip ariii:-.,niiil in the course of his address niadi-_ a violent. attack on Von Bethmaiiii-Holb ivcg. the (‘liaii<~ellor. In thc Royal box, where all could sec lilni, was tht- Crown Princi-. who i’ur'-ously applniiilt-.il the i-oiideniiiiitioii. The ("lia_nct-llor replied with spirit, call- ing Von llt-yili-brand ii warrior with his sword in his mouth, and speiikiiig in such a way tliiit thc izhastiscnient could be iipplicd to thi- <‘rown i‘riiit.-i- as well. The incident nroiiseil tht- Kaiser’s anger, ii' rcpoit is to be believed, and the liclr who opi-nly floutcd the Government was punished by being si-nt to coiniiiuiid a provinciiil garrison. This troubli-sonic scioii of royalty, who has as idols Napoleon llonapartt- and Frederick the Great, is in noniinal command of one of the armies at the front, wbch army is in a pre- cartons position. If by luck he escapes the ftite of the thou- sands of his countrymen ivho have perished on the battle- field lic ivlll almost of a certainty linve ti load of trouble in front of him that will make his t`ather‘s .worst flt of an- ger seeni like a blessing.
