lie the Palates of lowans.
National News Association

ACKLEY. Iowa, Aug. 29.-"Sauer
Kraut Day." an annual festival in Ack-
ley, was celebrated today with an
attendance of more than 10000 visit
ors, of whom, every man, woman and
child had his or her fill of free kraut
and wieners. Free entertainments of
all kinds were given throughout the
day. A dozen barrels of kraut and
1000 pounds Of wienerwurst were con-
sumed at the free dinner, which was
one of the big features of the day.
Athletic contests and many other at
fractions filled in the programme
These big doings were all because the
cabbage crop this year is fully up to
the expectations of the growers, and
Ackley expects to make enough kraut
to supply a large section of the coun-
try next winter.

EATON, Ohio, Aug. 29.-The severe
storm of last night did considerable
damage throughout Preble county, ex-
cept in Eaton. The big barn of Henry
Boge, near West Alexandria was burn
ed. Hiss loss will be heavy. The
barn belonging to Charles Armstrong,
near Lewisburg, was unroofed and the
structure blown off it's foundation sew
eral feet. The damage to the tobacco
and corn crops, especially the former,
will be very heavy. The tobacco hav-
ing shown signs of rust was just be-
ing cut by the farmers. The heavy
rainfall will delay this work consid-
erably.

The only damage done in the parks
was the breaking of many limbs from
the trees.
Sewers Were Overtaxed.
The sewer at Maple and Ridge
streets was unable to carry off the
surface water, the overflow crossing
the street and flooding yards. Water
was found in many cellars today. The
sewers in the retail and wholesale dis

Three trees were blown down at

City water works, east of the city.
Two trees were struck by lightning
and demolished in West Richmond.
The storm came from the southwest

Observations taken at the metereo-

this period is considered one Of the
heaviest recorded in Wayne county.

Reports from over the county show
that little damage was done by light
ming to farm buildings. In western
Ohio, the loss in crops and buildings
is heavy.
1t is considered remarkable that no
buildings in Richmond were struck by
the bolts of lightning that flashed
through the sky. Residents of the
South side believed that st. Johns

churches had been struck by lightning.
Many inquiries poured into the par

declared the heir to the throne.
When he first took the scepter it was
an offense punishable by death even to

posed for photographs which they
knew were to be spread broadcast

The emperor and empress even con-
sented to permit the use of their pic
lures on postage stamps, although at
the time there was almost a strike
among the Japanese postmasters, who
objected to profaning the emperors
efigy with canceling ink.
The emperor gave the final blow to
this superstition about the sanctfty Of
his person Immediately after the close
Of the japanese war. when upon repair
ing to the city of his birth to give
thanks to his ancestors he took up his
residence in a cottage belonging to
some peasants and refused to permit
the issuance of an order 'forbidding the
transaction Of ordinary business in the
town during his stay. The act was
based on the wisest diplomacy. 1t did
not ALLEVIATE the respect of his people.
On the contrary. it added to that re-
spect genuine popular affection.
The name of the imperial prince Of
Japan and the probable successor of
the late emperor is Yoshihito Haruno-
