HEAVY RAIN STORM
VISITS MISSISSIPPI CITY,
Berlin, Aug. 14.—Although the cere
monies attending the christening of
Emperor Wilhelm’s grandson at Pots
dam on August 27 will be practically
family affair, the event promises to
be a gala occasion for the entire na
tion. There is still speculation as to
what name will be selected for the
lusty young royal German who came
Into the world on the Fourth of July.
In celebration of the first meeting be
tween the Kaiser and his grandson a
few days ago the baby was Initiated to
the experience that must fall to him
many times If he ts spared to grow up
—the facing of the camera—and this,
the first photograph of the royal
youngster and his sweet-faced mother,
the Princess Cecelia, will be carefully
£ reserved by the few to whom It has
sen distributed, to be compared from
year to year with the counter present
ments of the growing princeling and
probable future emperor.
World's Proudest Monsrch.
Kaiser William, who was on his
yacht ofT the Norway coast when the
grandson was born, Is the proudest
monarch In the world elnce the birth
of the boy, and since his return to Ber
lin has spent every spare hour near the
baby, who Is said to be giving Indtca
tlons of a strong constitution. The
princess, his mother, Is Improving
rapidly in health.
The announcement that the christen
Ing will be a family affair does not
mean that all the relatives or a mo
Jorlty of them will bo present, for such
a gathering of klnsrolk would bring
together an Innumerable host of royal
visitors. The baby prince has rela
tives In many lands, for the marriage
of his parents drew together In closer
bond the royal families of Germany,
Denmark, England, Russia and Hol
land. As the heir to the first born of
Kaiser William, the baby, who Is yet
nameless, may play a most Important
part in the world's history some duy.
Kc Is directly In line to toe throne of
the German empire, and although his
chances of reaching the goal are ap
parently far distant, because of the fact
that his father, the crown prince, Is
still In his twenties, the progress of
the baby to boyhood and to man -
wilt be watched with anxious Int
by the millions over whom he may
some day rule.
