DoWnpour in the Afternoon
Kept City People Away from
WernIe Home.
MANY VISITORS PRESENT
NOT ENOUGH MONEY WAS RAILS
ED FOR A NEW BUILDING, BUT
1T MAY BE ERECTED WITH
OTHER FUNDS.

The rain yesterday afternoon inter
fered with the program at the Annual
Wernle Day Feast and on this account,
the success of the celebration was not
as great as expected. There were
more visitors from the city than ever
before, but the storm which was
threatening about noon, kept the PEG
pie of Richmond from going to the
Home and for this reason, the attend
ance was smaller than is customary.
The mornings program, including
the sermon by the Rev. A. A Wicke
meyer, of Michigan City, was carried
out in full and nearly two thousand
people were in attendance. The col
lection was large, and exceeded the
morning collection of year ago. 1t
is not expected, however, that there
will be as much in the Home treas,
ury this year as last, as a result of the
Feast, because there was but a small
collection in the afternoon.
Special Trains Brought Many.
The special trains and excursions
from other cities brought between
five hundred and one thousand people
| W Tic ClIS TIC SpSCldl lIOll L vi L
Woyne, over the g., r. & l. Ry., was
the banner train, bringing nearly four
hundred. About two hundred came
| from Hamilton and one hundred from
Middletown, Ohio. The excursion
from the north on the c., G. G l.. was
also well patronized by Lutherans.
The Rev. A. J. Feeger stated yester-
day that although there was not
enough in the fund to erect a
new building for the Orphans in place
of the structure now in use, the mat
ter of building will be brought before
the meeting of the General Synod, in
September, and it is thought that an
appropriation will be made to cover
the cost. There are now sixty-four
orphans in the institution. There are
two teachers, F. Wiechert and Miss
Martha Hennings, besides the house
father and Superintendent A. F. Klop
fer. The affairs of the House are in
excellent condition and the Lutherans
take great interest in it, as shown by
the number who visited there yester
day.
1 The train service on the c., c. & L
was excellent, and the large crowd!
of visitors was cared for easily. The
rain caused a general rush for the
train, however. which was unexpected
and this caused some delay.

WELCOME RAIN
FALLS At LAST
DoWnpour Yesterday After
noon Did InestimabIe Good
to Growing Crops.
LEI DER Edit HDEkTI
HELPED FRUIT GREATLY
GOOD SIZED STRAWBERRY CROP
Is NOW ASSURED AND THE
QUALITY OF THE FRUIT WILL
BE FINE.

Rain long expected and much need
ed fell yesterday afternoon and des-
pite the fact that it married many
pleasures planned for the day. it was
most welcome. The down fall was
general throughout this county al
though east of here the ground was
wet but slightly. To say that the rain
did inestimable good is putting it
mildly. Figuratively speaking, the
farmers had been praying for rain
and townspeople too had been feeling
direct results of the drouth. Coming
as it did. slowly allowing time to
thoroughly saturate the ground, its
value was enhanced.
Not only will the growing crops
profit by the rain. but the fruit as well
will show encouraging growth. Corn
will profit immensely and oats, which
were virtually gone have been reviv
ed. 1t will help the pasture lands and
gardeners can now give growing pro
duce much needed attention. For the
will now have to put in their best
licks. as farm work has been partial
| ly stopped on account of the dry
| spell.
The fruit crop with a sufficient sup
ply of rain from now on should be al
average one if not large. The straw
berries will be late in coming bu
here will be a good sized crop o
them and the quality will be excel
lent. The frost in the Spring did NJ
more than delay the crop. Farmer
hope for as much more rain as fel
yesterday and indications point t
their wishes being gratifed.

FOUGHT THEIR BATTLES.

Veterans of the Rebellion, Spanish
War Veterans and members of the
Women's Relief Corps heard their an
nual memorial sermon preached yes
terday morning by the Rev. T. H.
Kuhn at the Christian church. The
auditorium of the church was nearly
filled by those who had seen service
for their country, and the women who
had directly helped them in their
struggles The occasion was a pleas
ant one for those for whom the Rev.
Mr.. Kuhn preached. Reminded
again of the hardships through which
they had passed, praised for their
brave work and listening to music
prepared for the day, the morning
hour was a highly pleasant one for the
veterans and the members of the Re-
lief Corps.
The sermon by the Rev. Mr.. Kuhn
wkas fine one and especially appro-
pirate. He used no text and entered
at once into his subject
Origin with Constitution.
The speaker began by beginning
with the origin of the slave problem.
which he said was in July, 1889, when
the Constitution was adopted Even
then there was a warm debate as to
whether or not the blacks should be
admitted to social and political equal
ity with the whites. The culmina.

Living Example of Patriotism.
The Spanish War veterans, DR.
Kuhn said, were living examples OF
patriotism. The call of President
Mckinley, to which 100000 responded
he said, showed that the people O.
America were fully as patriotic now as
in years past. The reply of the Gov
ernor of Virginia who promised every
able bodied man in his state for ser
vice in the last war, Dr. Kuhn held tt
be characteristic of the American spir
