GERMAN DAY DREW CROWD.
Auditorium Was Packed With Ger
man. Americans.

Atlanta, Oct. 17.-German day at
the state fair, with DR.. Charles j.
Hexamer cf Philadelphia, president OF
the German societies Of America, az
the guest of honor, was recognized by
President Alex Smith OF the Atlanta
Fair association; Governor Terrell,
Mayor woodward and other unpreju-
diced and recognized authorities to be
the most popular feature Of the entire
exhibition so far this year.
The weather was perfect, and II
possible, the program was even better
than the weather, and the crowd
which gathered in the auditorium TO
hear the addresses and sthe singing
was easily the largest OF any of the
assembages this year.
Incluued among those who gather
ed for this portion Of the day were
many German American citizens who
have won fame and success in many
OF the largest cities Of the southland.
They came from the Carolinas, from
Tennessee, from Mississippi, from
Florida. and there we're several rep
resentatives from other more distant
states.
There were also large delegations
from the German societies Of Savan-
nah, Augusta, Macon, LAGRANGE,
Athens and other Georgia cities. Al
together the occasion was a tremen-
dous success and one that reflected
the greatest credit on all Of the Ger
man Americans OF the state, of At
lanta and particularly those, who as
members and officers OF the Atlanta
Gesellschaft, were responsible for the
success OF the big German day
In addition to the address Of DR..
Hexamer, which was In German, the
eloquent address in behalf of the Ger
mans on the part Of Or. Carl Kuebler
and the mastery opening address and
eloquent introductiOns OF Judge Err
nest Kontz were notable features OF
the occasion, while the instrumental
music by Wedemeyers band and the
singing by the German male chorus
received well deserved ovations, en-
cores and applause.
As Governor Terrell remarked af-
forwards, Il was a German day 70

BANANA oRop HURT BY STORM.
Hurricane on Central American Coast
Does Great Damage.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 17.-Dam-
ages Of fully 81 600 900, including the
partial demolition Of one town, was
done by the hurricane On the coast Of
Central America, which was reported
by q brief wireless message received
here.
Wireless and cable advices to the
United States Fruit company say that
probably no loss Of life occurred. The
hurricane appeared central near Blue
fields, on the east coast of Nicara-
qua. It swept in from the sea, its
first fury striking Little and Great
Corn island, which were swept bare
of vegetation and their topograph
even altered by the waves. On the
mainland the storms damage was con-
fined mostly to a path about 30 miles
wide, in which bananas and rubber
crops were destroyed and plantations
blown down. Great demolition was
reported from Rama, a town on the
coast about 40 miles from Bluefields.
Port Amon. in Costa Rica, also suf-
fered damage.
The United Fruit company esti-
mates that the. storm will result In
cutting down banana imports about
20 1000 punches per week, which Is a
very small amount of the regular
weekly volume.
