William Hohenzollorn, formerly em peror of (lermany, still pucks a punch. He has compelled the barber of Am erongen who trims his beard and mas sages his face every morning to do so In silence, according to T. Walter Williams, a New York newspaper man who has just returned froia Holland. The barber told Williams that the ex-kaiser prefers to have him work without- talking. At the same min ute every day the barber goes to the castle where Mr. llohenzo.lern re sides. First he trims; the Vandyke beard, which the former kaiser is af fecting, after which he massages his face. The former emperor is very sensitive about this operation, and be fore the barber begins he tells him to iron out all the wrinkles. Williams said the barber told Mm the exile Is enjoying excellent health. He judges this by the condition of hi close-cropped hair, which is still h;ird aud wiry. Roth hair and beard nre a snow white. The children in the village fear that there will be no Christmas trees left this winter, for the former kaiser is still at his labors of sawing wood. One of the three start officers who have remained faithful to him gets at the other end of the cross-cut saw and assists Mr. Hohenzollern. The only persons living in fhc castle besides the servants are the ex-kais-crln and Gen. Von Oented. The other staff officers live at a hotel in the village. Talk about adventures !
