It Simply Had to Be Put on the Cress en the Church Spire. Emperor William is the busiest mail in Germany.- He revises or approves all decisions In public matters, supervises all art and architecture and lectures everybody. In Illustration of the def erence paid to bis wishes In even the smallest details, they 1 tell in Berlin, writes Mr. Samuel G. Blythe in Every body's Magazine, the story of the star above the cross on the spire of tne Em-pej-or William Memorial church. Qt course the kaiser insisted on re vising th4lans of the church. The architect brought the plans to Lira, and the kaiser scratched out what he did not like and mado such addltlops as be fancied before be gave them tne Impe rial 0. K. The church was built. There was to be a big gilt cross on the spire, and it appeared m its proper place. But. much to the generafaston- ifihmeut, when the cross was put up a large, many pointed Star was raised above It on a heavy rod. The Berliners could not understand the star. They Inquired. The architect said the kaiser bail added the star to the plans. The plans were examined. Then it was found that In revising them the knlser bad let fall a drop of ink frojn bis pen, which hit the paper just above the cross. The architect Btudied a long time over this blot of Ink. There could be no appeal, no inquiries. He finally decided that the blot of Ink signified a star above the cross, and be put the star there, making it to correspond as nearly as possible n ltlt the outline of the blot The star is still there.
