WASHINGTON FUNERAL White and Black Alike Pay Tribute in a Tomb Built by Students, WI Telegrams of Condolence Re Officials of the School by the Nation Express Sympathy. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 23. There is a general desire to honor the memory of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute, and white and colored citizens throughout the United States are urging the trustees of the institute to act favorably on the project at the December meeting of the board, which will be held here. At a conference held in New York Monday of this week, which was attended by Seph Low, William G Wilcox and William J Scheffelin, the proposed Booker T Washington Memorial Fund was discussed. The purpose of the memorial under contemplation is to honor the name of Booker T. Washington, those having the interest of the famous school at heart believing that it can be done best by the creation of a great fund for the advancement of the work to which the Tuskegee devoted his life. Nearly eight thousand persons, made up of both races, and coming from every section of the country, attended the funeral services of Booker T Washington on Wednesday, November 17. Services, marked by sympathy, were held in the Institute Chapel. The remains were interred in a sealed vault of brick built by the students. The last resting place of the great educator is situated on a mound to the left of the Institute Chapel. The Program.

CAROLINA CONFERENCE ADJOURNS Stateville, N. C., Nov. 21.—Perhaps the greatest session in the history of the Western North Carolina Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church took place here in Statesville beginning Wednesday, November 19, and winding up Monday night November 26. The leading conference of this great Negro church which has nearly fifty annual conferences, some three thousand ministers and nearly half a million communicants. Within the bounds of this conference are two very important institutions. One is at Charlotte, in the nature of the publishing house, worth about $50,000, and from which the Star of Zion, the leading connectional organ, and the different kinds of Sunday school literature are issued to the thirty or forty States, to Central and South America and to Africa, the other is Livingstone College at Salisbury, the leading educational institution of the whole community. It draws on donations from twenty-six States from Canada, from Central and South America and from West Africa. The college is already worth $200,000, but the connection is now building a $50,000 girls' dormitory on the campus with dormitory capacity for about three hundred girls. Some among the wealthiest and most highly educated members of the Negro race belong to this conference, some worth nearly a quarter of a million college president and碴垃ite professors of the race belong to this conference. 25th Anniversary Celebrated. The twenty-fifth anniversary of this conference, which a quarter of a century ago was divided here in Statesville and on the same spot—a frame church then—but now a handsome and a more commodious brick structure. The conference therefore celebrated the occasion on Friday night with very appropriate exercises. The presiding bishop is the Rt. Rev. G. W. Clinton. A unanimous memorial and strong appeal has been voted on to petition the forthcoming General Conference to sit next May in Louisville, Ky., to have the bishop returned to this district. In all, this is the most intelligent conference, and yet Bishop Clinton, ruling with fairness and dignity, never using a gavel, has always had harmony and concord, and has wrought remarkable progress and success. He has won a reputation as a leader of men There are now over one hundred ministers in the conference. Bishop Clinton's Address a Feature. One of the features of the conference was the Episcopal address. It was comprehensive in its scope encouraged rugosity and pointed to signs of prosperity and better things in the nation's economic and religious life. The bishop paid a fine tribute to all the presiding clerics and pastors who made this remarkable progress possible. He touched on proposed new legislation which improved him upon the minds of all who heard him as a seer, a constructive genius and a deep religious burth palate. The laymen and laywoman of the church are showing very little interest in all matters ecclesiastical and, this fact did not escape the show. Among the general officers who visited the conference are Dr John C. Dunlave for several years recorder of books of the District of Columbia and now the secretary of the connections church extension department. Dr W. H. Gilmore president of Lavingstone College, Sullisbury, N. C. Dr S G Atkins educator of the secretary of the connection and principal of Shater State Normal School at Winston-Salem. Dr L W. Kyles, editor of the Quarterly Review (founded by the Roy now Bishop of Clinton), and secretary of the Protector of the Province of Massachusetts of the connection. Dr R. B. Bruce, editor of the Sunday School Literature. Dr Geo C. Clement, editor of the Star of Zion and manager of the publishing house of Charlotte. Dr J W. Wood, editor of the Missionary Seer and secretary of Missions, and Dr W O. Carrington, dean of the Hood Theological Seminary of Lavingstone College. R O Alexander prominent business man of Charlotte, a white man full of spiritual power, a friend of the Negro race and one of the man who wants to see the Negro do well and progress, made a trip to the conference and talked for about fifty minutes to a large and appreciative audience. His talk was full of wholesome advice. The sermons preached by the general the addresses of the Honor the Warder of the States and the different talks given have made Stateside already good still better. Sunday was a high day and the bishop's service was one of power of the Holy Church. The bush was a personal friend of the lamented J P Cidwell, once the editor of the Landmark and later of the Charlotte Observer and Editor Cidwell made it a point always to put him before the public in his editorial utterances a leader worthy of being followed. Monday night appointments were read. Some were appointed and some were disappointed. The previous titles are Revs H Ike and H I. Brentmatt Dr H I. Simmons of this district Dr S D Watkins of Charlotte and Dr M V Mirable of 9 South Meeting Place, this city. NEW CARLTON Y. M. C. A.

Prominent Men of Both Races Attend Services Last Sunday at Bethel A. M. E. Church----Shiff's Estimate of Decased. . . . Memorial services in honor of the late Booker T. Washington are being held throughout the United States. Glowing tributes to the departed race leader are being made by men and women of both races and of all walks of life. In New York on the day of Dr. Washington's funeral many of the business institutions conducted by members of the race were closed for one hour, and during the week flags were displayed at half mast by colored citizens.

Speeches were made by Acting Mayor George McAneny, Thomas W Churchill, President of the Board of Education; Jacob H. Schiff, Henry Clews, the Rev. B W Arnett, Major Reginald Foster of Governor Whitman's staff, and others. Jacob Schiff said Booker T Washington was the Moses of his race. Like Moses, he had led his race to the boundary of the promised land, but had not been allowed to enter himself. Mr. Schiff stated that the great Tuskegeean had shown the way to the time when their would be no distinctions made because of color, race or creed. Lincoln House Memorial Services. Memorial services for Dr. Washington were held at the Lincoln House Tuesday evening, November 23. An oil painting of Dr. Washington draped with the flag of his country, occupying the center of the platform. Fred R. Moore, who was a personal friend of Dr. Washington, and who has just returned from Tuskegee, spoke of the life and work of the man and gave a very vivid description of Tuskegee and the funeral services of Dr. Washington. Other speakers were the Rev. Mr. Rantus, Messrs. Bowen and Haller, and the Rev Mr. Flynn. The sobists, Miss Drandridge, Mrs. Seay and Mrs. Henry sang. At the close of the service many lingered before the portrait of Dr. Washington. The Rev James Spencer Ford, pastor of Central Park Baptist Church, East 83d street, gave a stereotypical lecture and sermon on the life of Dr. Booker T. Washington at his church last Sunday night to an overflowing congregation. Memorial Services at Hampton Hampton, Va. Nov. 22 -The Rev. Laurence Fenninger, associate chaplain of Hampton Institute, conducted memorial services which were held in Memorial Church at 11 o'clock on Wednesday morning, November 17, while the funeral service for Dr Washington was being conducted at Tuskegee Institute. Mr Fenninger said in part "In this place where he was so well known, and to you who know so well, it would not be fitting for me to speak of Dr Washington. I did not know him intimately, but I will always cherish the memory of the few times I met him. He impressed me chiefly as a prophet, as a man with all the rare blessings of the prophet. He had eyes that saw, ears that heard and a heart that understood. And it was just those blessings that he encouraged to share with his fellowmen; he strove to give up to blind eyes; to usurp deaf ears to bind up and fill with hope hearts that were broken. His were gifts that were increased by being shared."

Jounson, Contaiputinc Error. | ‘ 7 * A DELICATE QUESTION. ‘The case of the defective Bollinger baby in Chicago has arouse ja great deal of discussion and comment. ‘The child was born in su lu condition that it was sure to die within a few days unless a ce ,|tain surgical operation was performed upon it, ‘The probabiljtic r|were that this operation would prolong its life. ‘The,physician i tJcharge took the view that the operation should not be performed a it would only serve to keep alive a defective human being. ‘Th {mother of the child was persuaded to take this view, | ‘The newspapers have been filled with conilicting opinions 0 ithe matter hy well known physicians, scientists and prominent lay men, Dr. Inutehinson, in upholding the course pursued by the at tending physician, stated the case as follows: ( “From the pomt of view of the puble welfare and in- ; terests, the wisdom and humanity of the decision of the ; Chicago surgeon and parents need hile argument. , : “First, for the reason that even with the utmost devotion, ‘ and angivus care on thé part of parents and family, the chances are five to one that any fcehle-minded child’ will sooner of later herome a public charge either directly oF i: directly, as an objcet of charity and of outdoor relel or as, an anniate of some county or State AsutuLN, “This will be only in those cases where the’ parents are financially able, not merely to take every possible care dur- J ang their own hicume, but to leave a special enduwment to : providé for its continuance during the Iictuny of the child. “Even this {amily care ig utterly madequate, particu: larly in the higher grades of feeble-mindedness and mental defect, which are often exccedinely difhenlt tw control by means short of whit isepracueaily a priy ite asyhunt or a personal attendant day and might ¥ + decond, and even more serious from the pow of view of the commumty, is the fact that defective and [eoihcmninged Elnldren, fram whatever stock or suuree derived, show a de~ + ilorable' and iwinnstukable tendancy. tf reyeeduce their. kind aad to have offspring which are alse ment ily deteneay¢.” © Many other doctors and advanced thinkers expressed ifte same Mew, however, the doctors were not anammous, quite a mumber held a contrary opinion — Several ministers coincided with Dr. Hutchinson, ; ‘ Dr, Harselden, the physician who attended the mother of thy child, among othgr things. said the following in justilication of his position: 5 ‘ ~ TH say again that itgs our duty to deierd ourselves and i inure generauions agaist the mentally detective we allow 10 grow and suffer'among us and add te our burden and our problems, Mb conseiente says tt ty attr duty “Parmers. select the best stock or reproduction, the best _sced, without rust or other disease, for Sowing =Poor humans rely only. upon ehance, and defect yes are as welcome as any to enlarged fanuhes. “Think of, at" + We cannot agree with the opinions quoted above. We belieré it is the duty of the phystcrans to do all in his power to aleyiate pain and profong life; consequences beyond that are not, his concern The crux of the question was not whether the child would be better off dead than alive,.but whether the parents and the phy- sician had the right to virtually make themselves its executioner From all accounts of the child's condition, death was a blessing: but afficted hunian beings whose death would “be a blessing both w themselves and the community are common: yet, who has the right or authority to decide: But our main objection to the theory advanced by the Chicago physician and his defenders is that its adoption wonld place in the hands of doctors a power far too absolute and dangerous. It would give to every doctor the right.to reiuse to do anything to save the life of any child which he considered would grew up to be a de- fective. Where would the line be drawn? Some doctors would draw it more finely than others. How defective would a child have to be to fall under or escape sentence? There would be doctors, for example, who would decide that a child born blind and of poor parents would become an object of charity and should therefore be allowed to die. ~ A\ case somewhat similar to the one in Chicago occurred in this city yesterday. A little girl was born who will probably die an in- fant if a certain surgical uperation is not periormed. If she lives she will always he paralyzed from the waist down, ‘There is no question of mental defectiveness, yet a discussion is going on as to whether| the child should he helped to live or allowed to die . There is no doubt that the world would he better off if all men- tal defectives died in infancy or were never born at all, Some might go so far as to say the same concerning hopeless physical defectives However, we feel that it is better and safer that the human race run whatever risks and bear whatever burdens there may he, in having defectives grow to maturity and even reproduce, than to, place in the hands of doctors or any otlier set of men such power as was asstimed by Dr." Haiselden and advocated by those who support him. Such a course would eventually lead to the right not only of allowing de- fectives to dic, but of condemning them to death, No human being has the wisdom which would justify the possession and exercise of any such power. > Entered at the Pom Office at New, York we Seed diac ORSueied rhe Py west bp, Fred Moor 7 afta Sirce,"New Yorke e ‘Falcons, Bryast 3815. usw B.

OF such a nature is. th neglect of President Wilson to giv ssome expression of sympathy on th death of Dr. Booker. Washngton ‘Iwo. ex-Peesidents and” an, ex-Viec President made public -«efndwledgmen Of che loss sustained by the country or “the death of the great educator, but thi President, up to this time, has had noth tng to say. Judging the President's action, or lack of action, on the narrowest grounds ol Policy, it'is difficult to find a justifying excuse. “It is true that he is a-man of Southern birth and a Democrat; but Southern sentiment paid an almost un versal tribute of praise to Dr. Washing. ton's miemory. Not. only the Souther press, but many individual men. of Soutliern birth spoke of him in the high- gst terms. The Governor of “Alabams issued a public statement which consid ering all sings, was a remarkable utter ance, Wersay then, placing the matter fn the narrowest grounds of policy, iti certain that the ‘President wouid not have rectived criticism even from the South had he said_a_word in acknow!- edginent of the services and worth of the men whose death is a national loss. On the same grounds an. opportunity, ‘without any risks, was offered the Presi- dent to perform an action which would have called forth the regard of ten mil- Hon colored Americans whose kindly feelings the present Administration has s0 unnecessarily alienated. But there are higher .grounds. Con- sidering the national scope of Dr. Wash- ington’s. services and. the. international fame which he achieved it seems only fitting that President Wilson should have spoken some word of acknowledg- ment, and, through that word, sent a message of encouragement and’ inspira- tion to the millions of American citizens of the race £0 which Dr. Washington be- longed; even if it did cause a criticism. There ‘would have been no. criticism: but, evem '¥9, any criticism of such an act world have served only to streigth- th the Peesident in the regard of the country at large.

C., Nov. 17.—A Colleton County jury, * after only twenty minutes of deliberation, to-mght found a white man guilty of the murder of a Negro—a thing that has hot occurred m this county since hefore the war. The white man referred to is one Quillie Osteon, who shot Ernest Copeland, colored, in the back of the head. Of course, Osteon has not been hanged, and it is most likely that he will not be. It is also true that the jury attached a recommendation of mercy to thei verdict of guilty, Nevertheless, it is a sikn of great advance when a jury of white men in South Carolina can rise to the duty. imposed by their oath, and render a decision in accordance with the law, even if that decision makes a white man guilty of a’crime against a Negro. The papers a few days ago recorded the death of George Dalton Morgan, son of George Male Morgan atid a nephew of the late J. Vierpont Morgan, Ie died at Seville, Spain, and left an enormous fortune to his widow. The name of Mr. Morgan and his widow brings back to mind the startling romance of his marriage some ten lor eleven: years ago. ‘The following paragraph clipped from the account of Mr. Morgan's death will give an intimation of what the romance was: c The decedent, who inherited a fortune aside from his share in his father's estate, devoted his life to traveling. In 1902 he settled in Japan. fle married Miss Kato im 1904 and brought her here on their honeymoon. They remained only a few weeks with Mr, Morgan's relatives and did not return here. Miss Yuki Kato was a Japanese lady, the daughter of a sword- maker, ‘There is no need to comment upon the shortness of the couple's honeymoon in this country, nor pon the faet that they never returned to visit friends and relatives here. | One of our remarkable traits as a race is out ubiquity. ‘There are only a few places on carth you can go and not find one of us Only two civilized men are credited With ever having set foot on the spot called the North Pate, and one of them is a colored mian. “But we are not only everywhere and connected in some way with almost everything that happens: we are also present in every kind of pursuit, \Ve manage to send a representative well to the: Governor Whitman's Stand, also true that the jury al A great effort ig being made to dis-] verdict of guilty.

First Vice-President, National Negro Business League, of which Dr Washington was president. New Haven, Conn. Nov 16, 1915. Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Secretary, Please convey to the family of Booker T Washington my deep sympathy in their sorrow. His death is in what ought to be his prime an irrefievable loss to valuable power forces for the proper settlement of the race question that has appeared in his generation. His loving candor to his fellow Negroes, his inspiring encouragement to make them more industrious upon the homely virtues on industry, thrift and persistent use of their opportunities, with a promise of higher achievement as a reward have done more for their progress. In their progress I knew Booker T Washington well and valued him highly as a friend and a patriot. He united with a signal power of eloquence and great intellect to establish a saving common sense which made him the great man he was. I greatly regret his death.

In session Thursday at Boston the National Negro Business League heard a plea from Dr. Booker Washington for the delegates to use all their influence to use the word "nigger" and to have Negro initialized in spelling. Dr. Washington's request is entirely proper and within reason and deserves a more general compliance than it is likely to receive. The word nigger is one of displacement and usually so intended when used. We are continuing to uphold the uplift in some measures at least. The term Negro is the one properly applied to the descendants of Harm. The often used "colored person," an item frequently favored by the Negroes themselves, is neither correct nor descriptive for neither white nor black as a color and the expression "colored person" is to no means designator of race. Agitation on the part of military men some years ago served to gend into general distress, the applied to the procurers of women for immoral purposes. Possibly Dr Washington's agitation against the use of the word "murder" will have the same effect. We would, however, we admit we're too hopeful.

Dr George Evans president of Rust, concluded with a few remarks showing how simplicity earnestness, thoroughness and cooperation gave Dr. Washington the distinction which he attained. BOOKER WASHINGTON (Atlanta, Constitution.) One of the most striking and significant facts in connection with the death of Booker T. Washington, famous Negro educator and a long-time leader of the African-American community, in the face of death of his often expressed determination to "come home to die." Born in the South and spending his life here for the benefit and uplift of the numbers of his race, he preferred alone to live in the South, where his labors of a third of a century where he built the Tuskegee Institute and started it upon the great work it has done for his race. He no more striking illustration of how the Negra race feels about the South in this final act of his life Washington told the story of what the Constitution has so often sought to impress and of what he himself has deceived upon it very available occasion, that people are the best friends the Negro has Booker Washington was a man of strength and attachment. He had reached undoubtedly the highest pinnacle of Negro achievement. Others have won disgrace for their actions, and their names upon the pages of American history, but where they have done it by antagonism and prejudice and strife Washington won his career through the spirit of friendly escape, then and kindly and humiliated, and which was his form of complaining for the mentions of his race the splendid things he has done. In his life there was no make-upance in his spoken word no velolenceless his gospel as one of the ministers of his race has been the most important of "peace and industry and good will." Booker Washington's expressed feeling that the white people of the South were the best friends of the Negro, argi his apposition of that thought and principle of race, and that race, were perhaps more responsible than any other factor for his attainment of the remarkable success of his career. Conservative in thought and word, but vigorous and enthusiastic in constructive behavior, he was a man for himself a wonderful record in the better race along those particular lines of industry and usefulness which will best serve them in the lives they have to live. Washington gained and held the condeed of a man in every walk of life, both in the North and South, and in that way he accomplished for Tuskegee Institute what others who have sought to build upon his legacy had judice have failed and will always fail to do. Both Tuskegee Institute and his race will experience a serious loss in Washington's death it will be well for the future of his development if there shall come others like him to take up the work he has laid down. Clinton, who lives in Charlotte. For eleven years has he most remarkably led this conference from success on to success. Bishop Clinton nis not only a magnificent man in physique but also one of the very ablest scholars and religious leaders of the race to which he is an incasent worker, country. He is an incascent worker, country. His philips and valuable books. His counsel is sought far and wide. Since he took the district it has increased with leaps and bounds. From a property valuation of about $200,000 it is now nearly valued at a full million. From three presiding elder's districts it has to-day live and it is now already too large and plans are on foot for another division. Nearly ten thousand people have signed his term. In fact the Western NC Conference is now the feeder of all the other conferences of the connection.
