"Berlin, Wednesday--Phonographic records of Emperor William's voice on metal matrices will be the first deposits made in the phonographic archives which are to be kept at Harvard University, and in the Congressional Library and the National Museum at Washington. The Emperor, on the application of Professor Edward W. Scripture, the psychologist of Yale University, through the United States ambassador here, has given two examples of his voice for permanent preservation. The first cylinder, made especially for Harvard University, contains observations on Frederick the Great. The other was a short disquisition on 'Fortitude in Pain.' These archives of voices are said to be the first instituted for historical purposes. Ten Americans of historical importance will also have their voices preserved.
