Little Rock, Ark., Aug. 14.—Jake Crabtree, who lives at Lavacco, and the oldest negro In Arkansas, cele brated the 106th anniversary of birth a lew days ago.

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.
