DEATH CAUSED BY ARTERIO SCLEROSIS AND OVERWORK
Dr. Washington Had Been Ailing for Past Six Months, and Physicians Had Advised Him that Rest Was Necessary to Recovery, But His Devotion to His Lifework Kept Him Going and He Literally Died in Harness—Sketch of His Life.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 16.—"I was born in the South, have lived all my life in the South, and expect to die and be buried in the South."
These words have often been used by Dr. Booker Talliaferro Washington, and it was given to him to have the fulfillment of his desire by a matter of about four hours and fifteen minutes. For when the physicians at St. Luke's hospital, New York City, to which Dr. Washington was taken for treatment, announced that he could not be cured, arrangements were at once made by Mrs. Washington and Dr. John A. Kenny, Dr. Washington's Tuskegee physician, to have him brought home.
Kept alive only by the determination to see again his beloved South and to end his days among the people he had spent his life to lead, Booker T. Washington, ranked as the ablest Negro in the United States, died at his home here at 4.45 o'clock Sunday morning, just after completing a long trip from New York, where he had gone in quest of health.
Accompanied by his wife, his secretary and a physician, he left New York at 4 o'clock on Friday afternoon. He arrived here just after midnight Sunday morning, and then, a short while later, Booker T. Washington's long and stubborn struggle up from slavery ended.
Surrounded by the splendid buildings of the institute which he had created, and the hundreds of students for whose betterment he had spent his life, the great leader and educator of the Negro race succumbed to arterio-sclerosis, which had held him ailing for the last six months.
It was the longing of a weakening man to return to his home which took Dr. Washington south to die among his own people. For a month past his health had been in an extremely precarious condition. Accompanied by his wife, he came to New York, and for several weeks was under treatment at the Rockefeller Institute. On November 5 he was removed to St. Luke's Hospital. Here for a time he seemed to rally, and there was hope of at least a temporary recovery. Early last week he relapsed. As he weakened the desire to go home became stronger and stronger. Friday he left for Tuskegee, a dying man. His wife and his physician, Dr John A. Kenny, accompanied him.
Dr. E. P. Roberts, 242 West Fifty-third street, received the following telegram early Sunday morning, from Dr. Kenny:
"Reached here with patient at 12:30 o'clock this morning. End came fifteen minutes of live."

DR. WASHINGTON'S CAREER.
Washington started the institute at Skegee in an old abandoned church in June, 1881, going there from New York to Va. The school now covers houses and owns and cultivates 2,500 acres of land. The entire investment is to several million dollars. The State of Alabama has appropriated more than $0,000 to the institution in the latter three years. Prior to Washington became even more a national figure than Iredale class. He was an organizer among his people. He was the educator the Negro race has produced. He was an orator of motion.
He negro that ever lived honored than Dr. Washington president Roosevelt had him to White House for dinner thereby solidizing some people in the creating throughout the country while a more favorable immigrant Andrew Carnegie once feared that history would tell of two W. men white the other
brances went back to the period of slavery. He recalled that he was born near Halts, Lord Franklin county, Virginia either in 1858 or 1859, he was never quite certain which year it was. The entrance into the world of slave babies was not considered worthy of recording in those days. He and his mother were chattels of a family named Burrows, but he was little enough afforded. The rights of slavery and he used to say that his childhood was hard up spite of wretched poverty and the densest of ignorance.
STRUGGLE FOR EDUCATION.
With freedom came a strong inspiration to the boy. He had used to wear books read had been eager to hear stories and he had an imagination that kindled easily. It was because of his early insisting for books that he got his name Booker. The name in fact was a sort of joke played on the law by his mother. It was her way of alluding to and sailing out his peculiarity.
Soon after the war he went to Maldon W. Va. and worked in a salt mill for nine months in the cool while he attended school for three months. He was determined at that time to get an education but he found the task a totally difficult one. He managed to put on some time at a night school and briefly priming to become work unmanned in the morning and keep it unusually late in the evenings he was able to attend a day school with some regularity.

Body Laid to Rest Wednesday Morning, November 17th, on Tuskegee Institute Grounds, and the Funeral Was Attended by a Host of Meg, Women and Children from all Sections of the Country—The Moses of His Race Sleeps Now Amid the Scenes He Loved Best.
The announcement, a week ago, of the serious illness of Dr. Booker Taliaferro Washington had not, in the slightest degree, prepared New York City for the news of his death. In fact, the statement of Dr. W. A Bastedo, 57 West 58th street, the attending physician, while it indicated the serious nature of the illness, at the same time carried a note of optimism that generated a feeling of hopefulness. It was the current opinion that a few days, or weeks, maybe, of complete rest would bring complete recuperation to Dr. Washington.
This feeling was increased when, on Friday evening it became known that the distinguished educator, accompanied by his faithful wife, had gone to Tuskegee, and that his personal physician and friend, Dr. John A. Kenny of Tuskegee, was with him also. Prayers, indexes to the hopes which inspired them, ascended to God asking for his complete recovery, and thanking God for what was thought to be his improved condition.
It was a shock that stunned and paralyzed when on Sunday the church-going people on their way home from the 11 o'clock morning service were met by a swarm of excited newsboys, with an extra edition of the New York "Telegram" yelling "All about the death of Booker Washington." Incredulity was the first feeling, then amazement and wonder if it could be true. But it was. And at the same churches where, in the morning, prayers were brightened with thankfulness for his hoped-for recovery, that afternoon and night heard lamentations from grief burdened hearts that were asking God for strength to bear the sorrow and tribulation which had descended upon an entire nation.
Dr Washington's work in the educating and elevating of his people had brought him into close association with hundreds of the prominent citizens of this and other cities, among them men well known in civic, educational and religious work. Included in the number of Dr Washington's close personal friends were such men as President William Howard Tait, ex President Theodore Roosevelt, Andrew Carnegie, Governor Charles S. Whitman, Oswald Garrison Wallard, Jacob Schiff, Hamilton Wright Mabie William Jay Schutteln, ex Mayor Seth Low, Borough President Matéus M Marks, and scores of others equally prominent.
Not only in the churches of the race on Sunday night, but in churches of all creeds, classes and races, throughout Greater New York, was the name of Dr. Washington cologrized in word and prayer in token of regard and respect

TRIBUTES TO A GREAT MAN
Many expressions have come from men of both races and telegrams of condolence and sympathy have been sent to Tuskegee Institute from leaders of thought and endeavor in all walks of life, from every section of the country
SETH LOW.
Chairman of Trustees of Tuskegee.
Measured by the value of his services to our country I think Dr. Booker T. Washington on one of the greatest Americans of his generation. He has more I believe than any other man to bring about good relations between the whites and the blacks of the South and as the leader of his own race he has been without need. His death does not come as a total surprise to me. I saw him in St. Luke's hospital on Thursday last and realized that he had not long to live. The country has lost a great man and the Negro race a great leader. When one remembers that Mr. Washington began his life as a slave, one cannot tail to marvel at his achievements. His work at Tuskegee will be permanent, and I hope that his friends will realize that they must stand by it now is loyalty as they have done during his lifetime.
WILLIAM G. WILCOX.
Treasurer Investment Committee.
"Dr Washington's death is a national calamity. He has been a leader in establishing harmonious and helpful relations between the white and black races and also a leader in promoting the industrial development of his own people in a way which will be useful to them, is of the most significant need and for teaching later to his country.
I feel that in industrially doing his own people he has set the place for the industrial development of the nation, so much so that the white schools of the country. The whole nation owes a great deal to him.
Of course knowing the condition of his health there has been some discussion among the trustees as to his successor. I care to say nothing further about that at present except that the man to succeed him will be,

WILLIAM JAY SCHIEFFELIN
Member Board of Trustees.
"Truly a great man his fallen. In the death of booker T. Washington the nation has lost a citizen whose service in leading his race into paths of wider usefulness, increasing their capacity and self-respect and bringing kinder relations between the whites and the Negroes cannot be overestimated. His work will live." Booker Washington was ambitious, not for himself, but for his race."
Ex-PRESIDENT WILLIAM TAFT
Please convey to the family of Pooker Washington my deep sympathy in their sorrow. His death is what ought to be his prime opportunity loss to the nation. He was one of the powerful forces for the proper settlement of the race question that he appeared in his generation. His loving empathy to his fellow Negroes his inspiring energy to make themselves and feel valuable to the virtues on and stay in it and persistent use of their superior skills with a promise of better movements as a reward have done more for the Negro race than any other factor in their progress.
"I knew Pooker Washington well and valued him highly as a friend and a patient. He united with such power of character and great intellectual force that practical executive faculty a savvy common sense which made him the man he was. I greatly regret his death."
COL. THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
(When Theodore R. R. velt as President invited Bocket I. Washington to the White House to state of hostile criticism as a governor the country. Since the country has justified the case Mr. R. R. velt's appreciative Negro leader an in the controversy is now a matter of history following a tribute paid by the President to the educator is of more than casual interest)
I am deeply shocked and grieved at
he death of Dr. Booker T. Wahsing-
ton. He was one of the distinguished
citizens of the United States, a man
who rendered greater service to his
own race than had ever been rendered
by any one else, and who, in so doing,
also rendered great service to the whole
country. I mourn his loss and feel that
one of the most useful citizens of our
land has gone.
JOHN D. ROCK-EFELLER.
"I learn with sorrow of the death of Dr. Washington. He assured of my sympathy for you in this sudden and sad bereavement. He rendered invaluable services to his race in a life devoted to their uplift, and he was most highly applauded and admired of best man in the land. He will be greatly missed and his memory will be cherished with grateful affection for generations to come."
OSWALD GARRISON VILLARD,
Owner, N. Y. Evening Post
"The death of Dr Washington is a great blow to both races in this country, since he was in many respects a foremost interpreter of one race to the other. I am not sure but that this service will prove to have been his greatest when the time comes to review all the lessons of his career.
"What stands out most clearly at this moment is that he in his personality, typifies what a Uskegee of Hampton can do to the boy or girl of talent. It was General Armstrong. I believe, who said that at Hampton had done nothing else than produce Booker Washington it would have justified itself. I hope that in this hour people will remember that as his case illustrated there is in the Negro a storehouse of ability and talent which will be of immense worth to the Republic if it can be brought forward.
"Surely there have been few Americans of late years in whom the country took greater pride. His journey up from slavery was the democratic achievement of the kind of which Americans are most proud."
JULIUS ROSENWALD.
Of Serae-Roosh Co. Cheng
Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, an admirer of Booker T. Washington, who aided him in his work by contributions to Tuskegee Institute who has just returned from Tuskegee and is at the Hotel St. Regis, commenting on the educator's death, said
"In the death of Booker T. Washington this country has lost one of its foremost citizens. By emphasizing the dignity of labor he has rendered a great service not only to his own race, but to the white race as well. I know no nobler character than he possessed. The injustices he was made to suffer never embittered him. I see who knew him best was praised of his friendship. This law for the most only the country but the world."
EMMETT J. SCOTT
Tuskegee Institute, Ala
Emounted I have an dental secretary to the D.C. institution for eighteen years, and I have glory in the life which came to an end here this morning was its obsession of both risks. Not only so. He will be remembered as an old friend and thusus who sympathized and activities were raised on his behalf in races and all movements being performed.
WILLIAM H. LEWIS
mg up the race, it seems to me that if we agree in each doing our best to lift it up the main point will have been gained, and I am sure that in our anxiety to better the condition of the race there is no difference between us and I shall be delighted to work in hearty co-operation with you."
"Since then I have known him not only and well. He was unlush and generous to a fault, he was modest, yet masterful, he was quiet yet intense his common sense and a city scorned uncanny, such was his knowledge of human nature. His was a great soul in which no bitterness or lilliness could even find a kurin place. He was the great heart of Lincoln with a rather toward none and charity for all. He loved all men and all men loved him.
"My humble grief is that his torch has lighted another among the dark millions of America to lead the race onward and upward."
Columbus (O)—The announcement of the death of Dr. Booker I. Washington fell to a palpable entitlement. His death as referee by all white as white, black, national calamity, country that removes from the most hospitalized citizen this country, product Dr. Washington, popular hero, but what the latter was far too small to commemorate the urging rows that seemed bear
him. White and black, "priest and peasant," rich and poor alike, all through Ohio, are mourning the loss of this wonderful man whose achievements for his race and for all peoples has been so remarkable. That he was cut down, when just in the fullness of life, makes his going doubly sad. He was recognized here as the Moses of his race who has led them out of the wilderness and placed their feet on dry land.
ROBERT H. TERRELL.
ROBERT H. TERRELL.
Judge Municipal Court, Washington,
D. C.
Our country is poorer in men of true greatness by the death of Booker T. Washington. Among his many admirable characteristics, love of his country stood out prominently. While he deeply deplored the unfortunate outbreaks now and then in different sections of the country of which the Negro was the innocent victim, yet he always maintained that this country was the home of the Negro and that he was far better off here than he could be anywhere else. I believe that if he had lived longer he would have done a most effective work towards befitting all Americans to an appreciation of the culture of the Negro as a citizen and as an economic factor in the business life of the country. The death of Dr. Washington is a tremendous loss to the Negro race. The educational system to which he devoted his life and which he developed to a remarkable degree among his people will be his greatest monument. He has given the spirit of industrial training for the colored youth an impetus that no force can check and what will become a greater and greater blessing to his race as the years go by.

Stonewall Pa. Feeling that the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington is an inparable loss to the race and that the race to an individual feels most keenly this loss and would gladly follow any suggestion within reason to give tangible expression of their esteem for this sage and nobleman as well is evidence of their sorrow for his ultimately death I am transmitting herewith a very profitable suggestion for the accomplishment of this twofold purpose.
The suggestion is from Richard J. Frazier 107 Adams Street Stonewall Pa. dedicated to the world and concluding a special charity Night at the dove address.
"As a toten of esteem for the late Hon. Booker T. Washington, it is suggested that the ten million Negroes of the United States wear an emblem of mourning on the right breast for thirty (30) days; that all colored schools and churches and business places display an emblem of mourning for thirty (30) days as a token of respect for the departed hero, sage and philosopher."

"HE LOVED ALL MEN
BLACK AND WHITE."
Ernest Davidson Washington, the youngest son of the late Dr. Booker T Washington, has been up in New England lecturing in the interest of Tuskegee. He was in Vermont on Saturday when he received a telegram telling him to cut short his trip and return t. Tuskegee at once.
He was in New York on Sunday, leaving at 4.35 p. m over the Pennsylvania railroad for Tuskegee. He paid tribute to the memory of his dead sire, saying:
"Gentlest and most affectionate of fathers, kindest of men—that was my father. He had one alm, one passion, one object of life—the betterment of our people. To help them he wore himself down. He would not take the rest we would have had him take. It was his work, and he never shifted to other shoulders that he might carry on his own.
"Father died without an epemy. He never would admit he had an enemy. He simply would not allow men to be his enemies. He truly loved all men, black and white, but most of all the black. Father had much opposition, much criticism, particularly in his early years at Tuskegee, but he refused to allow those things to worry or annoy him, or to pause for a moment in his work.
"For those who opposed him and his work father bore no ill will, no malice."
"It was our people' with father all the time, and he cared nothing for himself. Had he cared more, he would have stayed with us longer. Father would never accept a cent of salary from any man or any institution. Whatever he earned went to Tuskerlee.

STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Not with hot frogs. But do it with (Kink no more) the greatest hair straightening preparation on earth. Kink-no-more will straighten the kinkiest kind of hair. Think about it—a preparation that all you have to do is to apply it on the hair and with a little combing the hair becomes straight, not to stay for one day or one week, but to last from six to eight months. Water nor nothing else will make it kink again after it has been straightened. Kink-no-more is a wonder worker. So marvelously does it do its work that one can hardly believe their own eyes. It works like magic, and is unique because there is not another preparation in the world like it. We offer a reward of $100 for any need of hair the Kink no more will not straighten.
Kink no more is a vegetable compound, it is perfectly harmless and will not injure the scalp nor hair. But will stop it from falling out positively removes an itch, promotes a resistant growth of healthy hair and keeps it soft and glossy. Remember Kink no more is a clenched fist for money or treasure. We will send to anyone or the receipt of $1.00 a regular size box of Kink no more, enough to reassemble from one to two heads of hair. When ordering send registered letter, posta money order or express money order. Libera's inquiries offered to agents. Write to day for special terms. Ench 2 cent stamp to reply. Agents wanted everywhere. Address Shelton & York. Spring good agreement. Rockville.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS ON DR. WASHINGTON.
The Age in this issue gives to its readers a complete symposium of the comments of the press brought forth by the death of Dr Washington. These comments have been gathered not only from the great metropolitan dailies but also from the leading newspapers of the south. In this way, we place immediately under the eyes of our readers a collection of opinions and tributes which many would not otherwise have the opportunity to see. This feature makes the present issue of The Age a valuable memento, an issue to be carefully put away and kept.
No one who reads these comments can fail to be impressed with their unanimity. "There are opinions from diverse legalities and diverse minds, but all unite in voicing the sentiment that a truly great man has passed away. This cannot be better illustrated than by comparing the following excerpts from The New York Globe and The New York Times.
The Globe, which is a newspaper always friendly to the Negro, says in part:
"Judged by the standard of true value and real achievement, Booker T Washington was one of the great Americans of the generations since the civil war. He conferred new distinction on the name of Washington, assigned to him, following Appomattox, when a nameless pickanunny in Virginia."
His career affords many lessons to his own race. It is an example of how success may be won by concentrated energy and determination, in spite of intervening and surrounding difficulties. The traits of his character which stand out and which should ever be set for emulation were his power of devotion to an ideal, his great simplicity, his large optimism, his ability to overcome discouragement, and his skill as an organizer and builder? His great love for his race and his pride in being a Negro will be an inspiration for many generations to come.
The following is from The New York Times, a great newspaper, but one which rarely has a good word for the Negro:
"Taken in connection with his character, the latitude and scope of his moral purposes, the complexity of his task, and the obstacles he had to overcome, his career is one of the most remarkable and most difficult. It is doubtful if any American, within the forty years of his active life, has rendered to the nation service of greater or more lasting value than his."
No less important, perhaps more so, is the lesson to the white race. Dr. Washington's life was a justification of his famous plea, "Let down your buckets!" Here was a man born under conditions which made him a chattel, without early training at home or in school, a member of a proscribed and despised race, hemmed in, held back, pushed down; yet by his own will and worth, he made his life one of highest service to his race, his country and his age. Should not America then, in viewing this man's life, learn that the race to which he belonged is an almost untapped source from which may be drawn high and devoted service for the national welfare? Should not the white people of this country realize that in their midst there is a race possessed of powers and talents which can contribute to the glory of the nation?
And not only the sympathetic and the unsympathetic press of the North has voiced this sentiment, but, what is generally, the antagonistic press of the South has done the same. Not only the press of the South, but prominent Southern men have paid a tribute of praise. The following statement by the Governor of Alabama is, in many respects, a notable one:
"In the death of Booker T. Washington the colored race has lost its greatest leader. He was a man of unusual force and executive ability, and in many respects rose above the environment of race. In my opinion, his efforts toward the development of his people have been of great benefit to them and to the entire South. Born a slave, living a life of earnest endeavor, and at his death the chief executive of an institution of Nation-wide reputation created by his own brain and energy, demonstrates to the world the unbounded possibilities open to those whose purpose is to accomplish something, and marks him as one of the able men of his time."
The life of Booker T. Washington should inspire the resolve to make of these United States a democracy in reality as well as in name; to strike down the barriers of prejudice and pride and hate and injustice; to grant to every man, high or low, black or white, the right and opportunity to develop and give the best that is in him.
In a subsequent issue The Age will give to its readers another symposium from the leading weekly and monthly publications
He is dead, but his name will not fade. He will stand typifying the dream of true democracy, that the lowest may rise to stand with the highest. His place in history will long serve as a beacon to those who start life handicapped. Tennyson had in mind such a character when he wrote of the man—
BEQUEST TO TUSKEGEE.
Mrs. Jessup, widow of Morris K. Jesup, died on June 17, 1914.
The Transfer Tax Appraiser has just published his report. The report records a bequest of $50,000 to Tuskegee Institute, and also a similar amount to Hampton Institute. By a singular coincidence, the publication of this report came just at the time of Dr. Washington's death.
"Who breaks his birth's invidious bar.
And grasps the skirts of happy chance, And breasts the blows of circumstance, And grapples with his evil star."
FROM BOTH NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN EDITORS
Booker T. Washington is dead! The man who for nearly a quarter of a century stood before the world as the oremost representative of the Negro race, is no more. His death comes as a shock, for he had just reached the age when his powers for service to his race and to the nation were at their fullest development.
EDITORIALS FROM
NEW YORK DAILIES
The editors of the dailies published in New York City have given expression, almost unanimously, to appreciations of the value of the work accomplished by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington. There has been no discord in the utterances and there has been no inclination to withhold from the dead Leader the full measure of pride and praise in what he has accomplished: "America as poorer because of the death of Booker T. Washington," says one of the metropolitan editors, and others are equally as strong in the measure of their tribute.
And yet, how much more fortunate he was than most men who have undertaken great things; he lived to see his dream come true. Perhaps, the fulfillment even exceeded his great dream; for with all of his optimism, with all of his faith—how, when he first looked over those bare, red hills of Alabama, could his vision have reached beyond the Tuskegee which crowns them to-day.
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
Booker T. Washington, who died yesterday, will pass into history as his ablest Negro leader of his generation. Here in his native Negro state he may have produced greater men than his larger mould and more extrinormary genius. Frederick Doughlass was one of Washington's greatest leaders, overcome even greater obstacles than Washington had to overcome in attaining leadership. Doughlass excelled as an attorney, a lawyer, a judge, to the sense of justice of a ruling which had put shackles on the black man which had denied him the ordinary rights of a lawyer. He was a champion of civilization, believing that the Negro nature here would be assured once he had the chance to be his own master, to accept the challenge and to sell his labor in an open market.
His life reads like a story from wonderland. It is as marvelous as a tale from the Arabian Nights. Born a slave, he was at Emancipation a mere ragged, penniless bit of humanity; but he lived to make himself the honored friend of rulers. He was born without a right to a name, but today there is, perhaps, only one other great living American whose name is so widely known throughout the world. He was born in the South when its laws placed him on a level scarcely above the cattle of the fields, yet he became the most illustrious citizen that the South has given to the nation since the Civil War. But more wonderful than the fame which he achieved is the actual work which he accomplished. Tuskegee stands as the monument to his tireless industry and dogged determination.
Mr. Washington's task was different, because conditions made it different. The first time he received a partial measure of economic freedom, but he was dazed and not a bit thrust upon him. He did not use to use his new powers. Mr. Washington saw that the next appeal would have to be to use the fruits of emancipation to be realized. He has been the foremost Negro missionary, not to the white race, but to the blacks. He has been self-discipline, self-safety. It has been evident ever since Reconstruction days that he has put his own status as a freedman, and that his proportion as he shows himself uninhibited, capable, thrifty and self-controlled. His identity in which he has been improved.
By his example as well as by his teachings, he Washington set the Nrgza trot to the front of the battlefield. His deeds were intensely practical. His gospel was the gospel of Jesus Christ, the foundation of all moral growth. He was the champion of and woe, the rospot of the court, by his stets, are his security, his patience, an admirable sinlessness of his point of view.
In the death of Dr. Washington the race suffers an immense loss. He had the nation for an audience. Whenever he spoke the nation listened. But the loss which his death incurs is not confined to the Negro race; it is one which the entire country suffers. He was a great Negro, but he was also more than that; he was a great American citizen. He was a citizen in which this country ought to feel the same kind of pride in having produced that it feels in having produced a Lincoln. In truth, if the lives of all the great men of this country were written out to be passed upon by the civilized world, not one would be a more impressive example to foreign peoples of the possibilities of American democracy than the life of Booker T. Washington. The whole history of the Republic can show no man, with the exception of Frederick Douglass, who rose to honorable fame in the face of such overwhelming obstacles. And his greatness need not be measured only by the depths from which he came, it may be measured also by the weights to which he attained.
A GREAT LEADER
America is poor because of the death of Booker T. Washington. He way a great leader who was fundamental to the development of his own will and did not place on his肩 the poverty and importance that he possessed. He was one of the first American blacks to be a graduate of a private acquires his basic character qualities and the fundamental virtues that make him a useful member of society. Booker T. Washington rejected the attempt of scanty teachers and school trainers were sufficient to lift the Negroes Skill as carpenters blacksmiths, and above everything, as a teacher. He believed most important, and in Tuskegee he students formed a working community constructing buildings, doing all the construction and management of the school plant. In addition to his hard work had opportunity for classroom studies.
In this conception the genius of Washington embraced itself. Thousands of students of his work and strengthened by the training they have received, are exerting an influence upon the Negroes of the South, than any of his counterparts that the lion of the North lay in the South, and the thoughtful white folk of the South-were his strongest. As an agent of great power, Washington interpreted the needs of his people to his white fellow citizens in a most earnest and earnest manner, in their sole position among the nations and was proud of being one with them and of them. Through him, and through them, the Negroes throughout the country, they were lifted and their self-confidence strengthened. His memory will be a never-failing inspiration and courage to the Negroes.

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
Born to the fatherless son of a slave woman, Booker T. Washington became nationally famous and nationally respectful. He was the gives birth to the best of both worlds. He spoke in same platform with Samuel Clemens, Joseph H. Chateau, Seth Low and Robert Oden. He was a Master of Arts by Harvard and a Doctor of Laws by Durmont College. He was acknowledged the greatest educator the Negro race was produced. Possibly he was the greatest in all history with Negro blood in his veins.
The record of his rise is unparalleled. This because he was so great a man he was unimply modest. He never sought honors. Washington never sought to push the Nero as he did. He never took the tempting text of how the Nero is discriminated against. He did his unstinted unduly of the Nero as he is to-day. His plan was based wholly on his belief that he would succeed if given education and opportunity. One of the greatest possible tributes to Brooker Washington is that graduation of his students from schools elsewhere, and have, triumphed and successfully to extend his influence and successfully to extend his inspiration and ability which he developed there is little doubt that able leaders will be able to carry on the work of Tuskegee.

Hooker, T. Washington did not know how old he was. He must have been seven or eight, so he must suppose him placed at twenty-two at the head of Tuskegee. He had learned at Hampton, and at once began teaching that and what he learned, the bank. He praised the Negro banker, teacher, lawyer, physician; he could take a quiet and quixical satisfaction in the bank. He pleased him most that 2,600,000 Negroes were living in owned homes in 1910 and that Negro farmers owned more than one million dollars' worth of cultivated farms. Herein Dr. Washington was a wiser leader than those impetuous souls who had been in the bank, political right and cultural opportunity. The Negro is on the soil. He is in the South.

EXPRESSIONS FROM
SOUTHERN EDITORS
A striking evidence of the value of the work accomplished by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington is seen in the editorial comment of the newspapers of the country, both North and South. Editors of the metropolitan dailies have not expressed themselves any more clearly or forcibly than have many of the leading white editors of the South. The Memphis "Commercial Appeal" refers to Dr. Washington as "one of the monumental figures in the progress of the civilization of the world, while the Birmingham "Agreeable," declares that "the whole South will sustain an irreparable loss." Northern and southern editors alike declare that the country has suffered a real loss in the death of Booker T. Washington, and they are practically manumannous in expressing appreciation for the work of the dead leader.
"A MONUMENTAL FIGURE."
Memphis, Tehn, Nov. 14 - Booker T. Washington was the most remarkable man of his race and one of the monumental figures in the progress of the country. His military services to the Negro were the greatest gift given his fellow citizens. He was a valuable asset to the nation. The South numbered him among her most useful agents, will he difficult to find one to carry on that great work he had undertaken.

TUSKEGEE'S MAKER.
Dr. Booker F. Washington's work among the members of his race was based on the fact that he had political ambition not only after he had achieved a once indefinite and stability. He held that time and capacity of the black men in these calls that we now appear to have than in any other opportunity where they could be elected. 10
This project began by Dr. Washington into co-ordination with many other leaders of the college of his work at Tuskegee. He was not less enriched with the proxies of the leaders in the United States than the college. He was also acrue as to methods, their sparse was over the means to be used, to the end of which he was able to be by the intelligent jazzer at the ends of citizens who saw in Tuskegee a possible investment for the solution of a pressing problem. And the school's success depend on Dr. Washington's energy and personality or competence to continue it. Such questions will be answered in the remote future by the hope that the institution will be equipped to generate possess the apparatus and personnel necessary to its continuance and interesting educator.

A GREAT AMERRICAN.
(N. Y. Globe and Commercial Advertiser).
Judged by standards of race value and
ethnicity, he was one of the great, uncleavens of
the generation since the Civil War. He con-
ferred new distinction on the name of
Washington, assigned to him, following
communism, home annuity, annuity
in Virginia, and home annuity in the
South and he served his race and, so doing,
he served his country and those ideals
of moral justice and human brotherhood

When the proclamation of Abraham Lincoln became a reality and slavery was more or less over, the enslaved men made this. This was the hostage of the rights, as some now assume. Except for the political rights, actually enjoyed for a time, the Negro, in all likelihood, would be freed. The South had many respects worse than the old. Even now, when in large sections of the country the Fourteenth Amendment is null and void, the South has a stumbling block to non-believers in democracy even as the language of the Declaration of Independence was a stumbling block to
the advocacy of the South in Northern sympathizers. It is a great thing to set up principles to be labored for and to enforce. When peace came following the war the instake was not in that the bestowal of the rights of the people provide the means of that economic independence indispensable to the continued exorcise of political privileges. When peace was achieved, the war meant though he was, realized that it was necessary for the liberated to earn their rights and to be able to protect the serfs were part owners of lands whose titles stood in the name of their masters. Russia's government is ready to assist the government in a statement that the serfs were co-owners. To them was assigned 70 per cent of the extinction of the landlord's title possible.
Less enlightened than the Russians, our statesmen did not recognise that certain titles to part of the wealth that he had created. The free Negro, penniless and lenchant, an agricultural labourer without a criminal record, turned adrift and forced either to hire himself to an overseer or to become a criminal累犯. He was every free Negro or family should have at least forty acres and a mule were howled down as would be consequences in no degree recognized in the reconstruction legislation, and the failure to recognize them is one of the reasons why the Negro problem has per-
Booker Washington was the first member of his race conspicuously to emphasize the truth that economic independence can be a man. The nation not having given the Negro property that rightfully belonged to him, and the wrong being irresponsable, has given the people of his people to win homes and a chance in life by renewed industry. In spite of opposition among his own people from men who lacked his property, and now have the economic emphasis on political privileges, Booker Washington pressed forward. That the Negroes of America now own a billion of property and now have the economic emphasis on them to them a half-century ago indicates to what degree his labors have borne fruit.
Iboker Washington was a great friend of Washington and a friend them by seeking to stimulate among an unjustly treated and dasour-courteous man. So doing he made life easier for every Southern white man, for obviously its prosper when its labor is degraded.
Urs Washington was not only a great Sergio and a great Southerner, but he also despipped the color of his skin, had entered a real belief in American principles. The Sergio's principles, his principles, his principles. He believed in democracy and he believed in the attachability of life to his beliefs. He believed that society makes and is consistent of ultimate results. So he was an American, one of the generation, a special, let us hope, of the generation.
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
(Northeast Exposure, Rest)
In Booker Washington the country loses notchly a lead. A store who was in his town, a slave in the aftermath of the race he even slaves for the wooden payments of Bohannah, a waited and strayed slave he could, but burning with the thirst for education and the desire to get aboard in the world. A colored fob of the North also a ragged unhilt, answered. In reconstruction days, a Northern general who asked what message he should take to the North, with the words, "Tell
Both these boys did ris- to the headship of great educational institutions, but for Washington had the gift of oratory. Washington had the honor to donate talent for leadership, and so he forged along and by a single speech in Georgia he achieved national recognition. I remember that when I was told that if Hampton had done nothing else but graduate Booker Washington, it would have justified its existence and all the labor and money spent
If there was any secret of his success in overcoming the terrible obstacles he faced in his upbringing, his dogged determination to let no obstacle detain him, and to be himself above all, has been a key to his success. So early in life that the man who points another because of some differ in natural attributes, Jupiter bites off his finger, and his disappointment could discourage him. In one factor dropped out of his mind for the place of his and others was his lack of support, and the blind belief found. And so he specially typed in his possession all the great work that Hippo and his friends were doing for his race, and proved beyond dispute how that work of brining it to those that would otherwise sit in the only place for his blades but for the entire Republic. Thus thousands who helped him speak realized for the first time what it was like to be an outsider, his unliness, his latent among our colored "show citizens and others found in his life From Slavery" a real tract for democracy and for the brotherhood of
And so it came about that Booker Washington gradually became the foremost interpreter of one race to another. His greatest claim to renown. Certainly of the various Southern States, when thousands of both races gathered to hear him wherever he stopped have been of the most interest. The most important of Negro aspirations and achievements as the Southerner of the average small town, whose horizon is limited by the Negroes he sees upon his street corner, a message that opened many an eye and won many a heart. True, he was extremely diplomatic yet he did not lack the thinking letters that often ruined upon him. He would not take a guard, and unattended he would go by corners and shout like a dog if he dared appear. And, within, his modest hearing, together with his great devotion to his cause, won him friends wherever he went. Here in the doors of many a home swung open to him.

**Booker Washington's success in life may be explained in part by hard work and his early recognition of the fact that he had to be the master of his own fortune. He compelled respect because he was not equal to others, whom upon others that he was not prepared to try. He was received everywhere as an equal not because he asserted the right to character and achievements he proved that he possessed. Contemplating a life like this, American must be thankful that because it cannot be written of such a man he did not attach to Booker Washington but to the country that gave him to the world, will be placed no more upon him than 40 years ago. Years he sounded the depths of a republic false and scaled the heights of a republic true. That is the lesson that men from his struggles and triumphs if they will
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
(The New York Times)
Dr. Washington was a man of extraordinary native talent which, considering the quality and extent of his achievement, led him to the highest interest of the Republic, may be called gonius. Taken in connection with character, the loftiness and scope of his moral purposes, the complexity of his life, the hardships he had to overcome, his career is one of the most markable that our history affords. It is doubtful if any American, within the forty years of his active life, has greater or more lasting value than his.
The condition of such an ideal in the civic schools in which it was conceived, and the way in which it was developed at Tuskegee and at Ivy, was developed at Tuskegee and at Ivy, was possessed only by the greatest leaders. It required also a very rare ability to understand the nature of purpose, a strength of will and power of self-education of a most unusual degree. Thus for Washington possessed. He had beside the gift of portions on his books, a great ability to write. His style was consistent with simple, direct, and earnest. He permitted himself self-necessity of the tracks and had almost all public publicity. From these his sincerity and his absorption in his theme saved him. He often appended to the emotions of his audiences, and generally with marked interest, not appeal to the public's interest.
Dr. Washington has often been called the leader and the representative of the leader in a qualified sense, since he devoted his life to directing the Negroes in what he believed to be the path of their acknowledgment. In their acknowledges I leader. On the contrary, very many of them, and these among the more, to the trial and death of sharecroppers, these there was a multitude of the more important who were quite unable to understand the life of his wife and his methods of crops, to the rays of some of whose wounds he was, of set purpose deceived by this fellow among his fellow men, always a sorrow and painful lesson in the work that Washington had set him, because he was himself, necessarily, the victim in a thousand ways of the rooted prejudice of race, and had to bear daily the patient mortal of the worst injury.
He cloned however to his cardinal principle, that the peaceful relations of his own race with the white people could be respected and that the only way for the Negroes to win the respect of the whites was to attain self-respect through self-support and the qualities essential to their home, however humble in which dwell industry, honesty, and the domestic virtues as a centre of hope and safety for the race. It was his good fortune to see men and women for whose schooling in manhood and womanhood he had labored. And he saw also steadily increase the percentage of the whites in South. Who said that the white people of his era were ready to aid in extending it. Since the two races must live together, this contribution to a peaceful and orderly common life must be held to be of such importance that for which both races are deeply indebted.
AFTER BOOKER WASHINGTON
(New York Press)
The work of Booker Washington's life-time having been discussed and traded elsewhere in the country since the nineteenth century, whether with his tremendous personal energy and achievements removed the pressures of his own life, or with one who had studied the history of the colored people for the past fifty years will realise that the race has in store or in development that can be achieved. No student of history, certainly no ethnologist, longer asserts that the race has achieved the recent discoveries of the free race it established in early times in Africa; achievements of its fortunes; the race's eastern vsla and middle Vesla in medieval times, have been studied in recent years to the justification of modern efforts. Everything about the black man's past goes to show that, until the birth of slavery was put upon him by people of power, his history was honourable, the thought, because of climatic conditions, it did not follow the lines of the northern race; and power of such institutions as Taskegee has shown himself capable of advancement has largely been accomplished by others of the race.
WHAT THE SOUTH THOUGHT OF
BOOKER WASHINGTON.
Among the many tributes to the memory of Booker T. Washington from prominent in public life, by all odds the most distinguished and the most significant, is the official statement of the Governor of Alabama:
In the death of Booker T. Washington, in 1876, he was the greatest leader. He was a man of unusual force and executive ability, and in many respects rose above the environment of race. In my opinion, his people have been of great benefit to them and to the entire South. Born a slave, living a life of earnest endeavor, and at his death the chief executive of the nation with population created by his own brain and energy, demonstrates to the world the unbounded possibilities.

and nine scenes; which is, characterized}
as “a scenic darté and 'refue” |
48The book is by Irvin C. Miller, who
‘also staged the piecé, the Iyries. were
“written by Leigh, Whipper; whilé Do-
‘mer C. Brown, unknown to theatre-
goers outside ‘of Philadelphia, supplied
the’ music, assisted by Bob Ricketts and
W. C. Handy. In justice- to yoing|
“Brown it may bé said ‘that chis contri-
butions aling melody Jines® possess the
lilt and swing that inspire and gei over
‘without the need of “stage bisiness,”. so,
dfien. necessiry to make some .imusical
numbers “go, -aid it would be a. wise
pla, if some of our older musicians
‘who are living on “great” reputations
‘made in the: past,-woitld take-a. lesson
‘or two from the musical offerings of
this young and ambitious composer.”
The scene of the first act is laid Jn
America. bint the writers of the book
found it, necessary to iransport_ the
principal characters to a far-a-way'land
“peopled by inkiabitants of dusky hue in
tlie ‘secorid act, creating ‘a reminiscent
atmosphere and reminding .oné of other
golored. shows of toxday and yesterday.
“Perhaps our writers of colored produg~

"United States for “local color,” such

© “Broadway ‘Rastus” ‘cannot, boast of
hhavingrinvits cast people-of big reputa-
‘tions or names to conjure with, but it
‘can be, said. that: in it éxists. promising
material “in’ “abundance. ° Upon the
shoulders of Irvin C. Miller, as Rastus
‘King,-and Henry Jines, as Mose Smith,
‘rest the onerous task of .tickling the
funny-bone of the audience, and they
are in a large measure successful, in
their endeavor. Henry Jines wit ré-
Jarred to some months ago,in these col-
imns*as.a.young comedian: of promise,
‘anid he shows that he can’ just’as.casily
“romp through two hours and-a half as
“in, an act of from: forty-five to: sixty
‘minutes. As for’ Irvin'C.-Miller, he is
ah, agreeable surprise as a light come-
dian, His work: reminds you of the late
“Bol” Cole in more ways than’ one.
- + There are some clever bits'of comedy
done Sy Messrs."Jines and. Miller, the
fanniest situation being ‘a piece of pan-
tomime in the first act when Rostus and
Mose, almost staryed, stand-for seconds
“charmed by the dainties:in the window.
ofa takery,-totally. obtivious to shost-
ing scrapes, quarrels and the wiles of
alluring females,
‘Leigh Whippér, now and then a-New
“Yorker, is a prominent member’ of the
cast and does what has been set aside
“for him to do surprisingly well. This
is particularly true when he essays te
stole of Bill Mays, manager of “The
Birth of An Onion,” in the first act, and
sives'a' very natural charatterization of|
.con’ man. * Some. of his monologue as
"Hickory Wall; a ‘nat is good, but some
of the jokes ‘cracked by the nut are a
little: too personal.-

Cheshire of North Carolina in his address gave the Negro credit for his contribution to the development the body politic and gave as an illustration the St. Agnes Hospital at Raleigh, N.
