As a last effort to put an end to the bitter feeling between the German and English nations the kaiser and kaiserln will visit King Ed ward and Queen Alexandra In England this fall. S That this is a great sacrifice on the part of both monarchs, who, though Uncle and nephew, dislike each other most cordially, every one knows; but now that the visit has been decided upon the kaiser wants to make sure that Its effects shall not be lost and has given hla orders to the Official and semi-official press accordingly. These papers therefore are full of Information concerning the visit to such an extent that It borders on the ridiculous. The kaiser's subjects are told that . their sovereiam received a real written invi tation from his uncle, Edward, and that It waa worded in such a manner that it could not be refused.
