RW PEOPLE in this country realize the magnitude of the ambition. President Obama, in zulahs, an ambition in which he is, supported by his own party in the country of which he is the chief executive and by a large and active party, the president, who is nothing less than the re-electing of the old republic of Colombia formed by Simon Bolivar, the Liberator, which consisted of the countries now known as Venezuela, Ecuador and Colombia. That accommodation and advancement of his ambition to seek to add to the reconstructed nation Peru and Bolivia, as Bolivar sought to do, and in which he almost succeeded, being for a time the president of Colombia, but the arbiter of the affairs of those two nations. This would mean the formation, in place of five weak, discordant, belligerent and turbulent countries, of a nation with a population of 10 million, and an area nearly as large as that of the United States, exclusive of Alaska. It would be larger than the Russian empire in Europe, larger by about 2,000,000 square miles than the German or the Austrian empire or the republic of France, and nearly two-thirds the size of the United States, to 16 to European Turkey, the kingdoms of Servia and Romania and the principality of Bulgaria taken together. Its boundaries would be almost coincident with the territory reigned by the Incas and their tributary princes at the height of their empire. It would have a coast line of 6,800 miles, of which 3,000 are on the Atlantic ocean and Caribbean sea and the remainder on the Pacific. Venezuela alone has a coast line of 2,000 miles, with thirty-two natural harbors and fifty boys. The rebellion of the Ottoman Empire in Western continent in point of area and population, the United States being the first and Brazil the second. The natural resources, as yet developed hardly at all, of the lands comprised within the boundaries of the contempted republic are immense and varied, and the vastness of the land would be one which would afford opportunities for the working out of the best destinies if the Latin race in the Western world, and would be a power strong enough to defy foreign aggression from other nations. The proposed Panamerican railway would run through the heart of this nation, and, with its branch lines, would connect with the Pacific ocean on the west and the Carriacan sea on the north, thus hastening the development of the country and vastly increasing its commercial importance. THE APPEAL. actual fighting is going on for the accomplishment of the scheme of reunion. The Liberal parties in these three countries are united in an attempt to bring the scheme of union to an accomplishment. The Liberal party made himself the head of the government. Read in the light of the knowledge of this movement for unification the seemingly confused state of affairs in Colombia and Venezuela becomes more common. The state has been reading dispatches from South America telling of invasions of Colombian territory by troops from Ecuador and Venezuela and of the violation of the territory of the republics by the troops of Colombia. The news has been really a record of the stand which is being made against the government against the Liberals of the other two parties. Ecuador, being a small nation and the government seemingly having the Liberals better in hand than they are in the other two countries, has so far manned the war against the actual war; but under the lead of Castro the Liberals of Venezuela have made common cause with their brother of Colombia against the Conservatives, who opposed the union, and a state war with the Colombian government. Castro, with the aid of the Colombian Liberals, succeed in overthrowing the existing government of Colombia, the union is inevitable, and Ecuador would come before in Bolivar's time. After that it will be time enough to talk about Peru and Bolivia. At present nipples are marching and battles are being fought in the states which Bolivar freed from the Spanish yoke and formed into a nation which he fondly hoped should flourish and be forever a monument to his memory—a landmark of his fame—but which fell to the hands of the invaders to re-establish the great nation of Bolivar, may be like the dog in the fable, and in a sping at the vision of what he desires may lose the substance of that nation. The invaders are not like him. At present, however, he seems to hold Venezuela with a firm hand, the firmest which has been on her helm of state since Gurman Blanco was born. He is fat, supine and politically impatient amid the pleasures of Parisian life. Castro has great energy, great ambition and cannot be denied considerable ability of a contain sort. In politics and in society he has been adventurous and when he suddenly became a political force his rise to sudden power was rapid. He came to the presidency of Venezuela by fire and sword, and he holds his power in a manner which would not be tolerated in English-speaking countries, but which seems to be the only way in which semicertainty of rule ever is attained as established in the Latin-American nations. Castro is as arbitrary, as despotic, as politically unscrupulous as Gusman Blanco, but his ambitions seem to be higher, and he is vice, at least in part, from that extraordinary vanity which Blanco displayed. Blanco did a great deal to make him a practical and an absolute monarch, as Castro is; but Blanco was content to hold Venezuela in the grasp of his strong hand and did not look beyond her borders, but he was a man of scattered great statues of himself all over the country and gave to himself the title of "The Illustrious American," he made for himself great wealth and large estates, and he made great statues of Venezuela. Castro decree himself no titles, no statues of himself, but he rules with all the despotism and remorselessness of Blanco and seeks to make a monument in the shape of a nation. It is only a little white ago that Castro was a wandering outlaw whose life would have been sacrificed had the people in power caught him. He was only an ordinary every day revolutionist, like so many Central America, liable to be caught at any time and suffer the "pasar por his armas," as the Spanish-Americans euphematically call a military execution, and then be forgotten. But Castro has a genius for organization, and his confidence "not keep him awake rights him in the hands," he emphasized the supreme power and means to do it, and more, too, if he can. He hasnt his enemies to join their fathers or, conspire against him in the ports of West India islands. He is keen inseeing advantage of it, and this development of a sentiment for the re-establishment of Bolvair's old republic came to his and, he has encouraged it. It serves o withdraw the attention of the Venezuelans from domestic affairs and gives him a new and safe bed, besides opening it up to his own ambition, and, if the thing is properly carried through, and if the thing is stable government in Latin America is possible-of realizing the dreams and carrying out the plans of the great liberator, the "Washington of South America." Between Guaman Blanco and Castro there have been several presidents, but the country never has felt since the days of the illuminous American that it had a master, the president of tumults, discords and revolutions. To be president of Venezuela is not the simple and unostentatious thing that it is. It is the president of Venezuela wears gorgeous state, shining with orders, and keeps his state. Castro holds a regular court in the Casa Amabilia, or Yellow House, the room in the White House. The president in the white form of a general, with a wide golden skirt, is seated on a gilded throne, while standing on either side of him are his Defective Page cabinet ministers, are to in full uniform. The ambassadors are taken to the place of reception in a gilded coach, and are the ambassadors of the presidential court, who have an official title of introducer of ambassadors. When the folding doors of the great room are thrown open the person who is being granted an audience is expected to be seated on his throne at the other end of the room. Half way across the intervening space he must stop and bow again, and then, advancing to the foot, he is formally presented to his exalted position. The audience over, the person who has been received bows as low as he can without breaking his back, turns and walks to the middle of the room, where he is seated. Again resuming his march he reaches the door, where he wheels a second time and makes a third bow, backing out of the room as he does so. Great ceremonies of ministrations were held in the Palacio Federal, where there was a diphital ballroom 200 feet long and 40 to 100 feet wide. This used to be called the finest ballroom, where the furniture was upholstered with costly fabrics and the floor beautifully inlaid with various kinds of wood. In Venezuela Castro has under his sway about two and a half millions of people, scattered over an area of 353,812 square miles. The population of the same country is Colombia. Colombia is a mixture of India, Spanish, half-breeds and negroes, though the mixture of Indian blood with the Spanish is not so great as it is in Colombia. In the latter country the Indian blood is very prominent, and its possessors, so far from seeking to conceal the fact, are rather proud of it. The people of these countries are fighters in their irregular way, but the most sturdy and the best soldiers are Indians. Llanos, great plains like the little plains of our West, and in Colombia the Little Indians from Cauca are as brave and as fond of tumult and battle as they are unfortunate and hard to control. Colombia has about 120,000 square miles, but a larger population, there being about 4,000,000 inhabitants in that country. Ecuador with an area of 120,000 square miles, has a mixed population of 127,000. So the whole territory of the Bolivia has now a population of over seven and a half millions. Castro's ambition once attained, and this nation re-established and consolidated Peru, with her 3,000,000 population to invite the federation, and in case she did not come quietly, could offer arguments of force. It would not be the first time that a country had been forced into the days of Bolivar they helped drive the Spanish out of the country, and they stayed there for a considerable time as a result of the war in the nation, Bolivia, with an area be- tween that' of *Colombia* and Venezuela, having a population of 2,300,000, in which the native Indian element is immensely in the preponderance, would find it important to have a national federation, for she has now no seacoast. Chile took what little she had away from her as a punishment for joining Peru in the last Chile-Peruvian war, and Brazil on the east and the Argentine and Paraguay on the west. Chile would be the republic of "Greater Colombia" would have to be on a firm foundation before it would dare to take in Peru and Bolivar, for that act would be sure to bring on a collision with Chile. That country interrogates American countries of South America and has time and time again invaded Peru and interfered with the internal affairs of that nation. It regards Bolivia and Peru as the eventual absorption of those nations as its "manifest destiny." from *diy* of his death until now the unification idea has slumbered and slept in the nations which formed his republic of Colombia. It was, in fact, supposed to be dead, and a politician who dared to attack it was one of the countries at any time during the past seventy years would have been taught as a crazy man. It was only the pressure of Bolivar's name and deeds which kept the public of Colombia together while he lived, and the three nations which had been the great liberator to disassemble. The name of Colombia was hateful to the politicians of the time, and disappeared from the maps and from the speech of men. The country now known as Colombia originally was a slave state, and its name upon the dissolution of the union, and remained New Granada until 1853, when the name of Colombia was adopted. This was an evidence that the ghost of the old republic has not been killed, though no man realized the significance of this event, probably, those who advocated the reversion to the old name. William L. Serugas, formally minister to the Colombian and Venezuelan republics, who made a study of the social and political conditions of those countries and put the result in the form of a book titled *The Politics of the Venezuelan Fairs*, says of the unification sentiment: "It required a long series of almost fatal experiences to induce New Granada, Venezuela and Ecuador, and the petty provinces or states" of each, to sufficiently overcome their prejudices to form a federal government. The Colombian union was very general among the leading politicians and demagogues of the provinces in each of these countries. Nor was this strange antipathy confined to the demagogues alone. Intelligent and patriotic men who had other political convictions were strange and undefined dead of something which they called "consolidated government", without exactly knowing what that meant; and with them, as with us, this senseless fear of "centralization" long continued to be the civil genius of the Venezuelan people through the military prestige and personal influence of Gen. Dolphin; that the union became a Gen. Palliser." Having thrown off the Spanish yorks and formed the province of New Granada, Venezuela and Ecuador into the Republic of Colombia, Bolivar went with his Colombia troops to Peru, which then took over the country and defeating the royals in several pitched battles, put an end to Spanish power in that country, and was made dictator of the new nation. He then went to Upper Peru, a country which and open formerly the country of the Viceroyalty of Buenos Ayres, but had recruited. The people of this section formulated themselves into a nation, which they named Bolivin, after the librarian, and made Bolivar perpetual president. Bolivar was now at the height of his power, and it is this period of his career when most appeal most strongly to the ambition of it is also the portion which should be made available by the Venezuelan president, which is in the footsteps of his illustrious predecessor. "Bolivar created; Castro restored," is what the new risen guild of 90th American destinies wants carved on his tomb, and "E' Residencia" would not there to carry to carry down to postality. There is little doubt that Bolivar aimed $2.40 PER YEAR. AN ORINOCO RIVER BOAT TRO RECEIVES AMBASSADOR Colombian union. At any rate, he was suspected of such a design, and this was attributed to him as a crime. So those two countries repudiated him, and he reclaimed Bolivar. He was ahead of his time. He really had no public sentiment to work with, such as Castro has. How strong the decentralizing sentiment was at and after the time of Bolivar may be imagined, but the union of the "sovereign states" of Venezuela increased from six to twenty-one; the new ones made out of new territory, but carved out of the old states. In Sarmada every man of eighteen descript sovereign, floating at about random, controlled by some higher law inherent in himself. In all three nations revolution succeeded revolution, and constitution succeeded constitution with benefactor. In dictators or incompetent politicians altogether each other at the head of affairs, and the Colombian republic, for which Bolivar labored and from which he and the advocates of freedom all over the world hoped to be a ruler, was a scandal among governments and to liberty. And so it has remained. In Venezuela, between Bolivar and Blanco, there intervened a state little short of political chaos. To the iron rule of the revoltum and disorder; now with Castro comes what? He has drawn the sword of Bolivar, but can he wield it? The first movement toward centralization appeared in Colombia—modern Colombia—under the result of the Real Uruza in 1888 and resulted in the revolt was down a centralized republic was formed and the present constitution of the country promulgated. Still we heard nothing about the recreation of Bolivar, and the curious anomalies of political history that the unification sentiment should now appear in the ranks of the Liberals. Had it been taken up by the Conservatives, it would have been logical; but the Liberals constitute the party which lore always has been the champion of decentralization and segregation. It has been the one and only intelligible doctrine which it has preached, the only reason for its success. Now, suddenly, we see the Liberals of Venezuela, Colombia, and Ecuador marshaling their forces for an armed attack against the government of Colombia, and at the same time shouting for unification. How largely this anomalous situation is due to the genius of Castro in seeing the growth of the party, and seizing upon it for its own ends, regardless of political traditions, is a question. The president of Venezuela is so lauded by his friends and so villed by his enemies that it harbours a possible at this distance to get a clear idea of his personalization of the constitution issue was like a gold dollar which had been left lying in the street; the Liberals saw it first and picked it up before the Conservatives could get to it. It did not matter if the issue was a fight against which they had always invigored, but it was also a thing of which they immediately recognized, the value and of which they proceeded to make immediate use. The scheme for the reestablishment of the Colombian union is of special interest in its connection with the canal question. The scheme of an intercaneo canal across the isthmus of Panama was, with car, a part of the scheme for a Colombian union. It was Bolivar who took the first sorrow moving to the building, and then to the time when the struggle of the nation against Spain seemed least hopeful of success. As soon as he had been invested with dictator powers for the prosecution of war, he sent agents to the capital in the scheme. Money capitalized in London for the canal, but as no maritime power could be found willing --- iii ee Ota Hine: a 2AM Linh PCS RI OR i ke ERO DG ae a an chet EMS RRR .

A large number of good things, as well as bad ones, have been brought out by the Roosevelt-Washington incident, and among the good ones is the following from the Chicago Chronicle (Dem.); President Rosevelt is accredited with the courage of becoming the first Federal Executive to entertain a Negro in the White House. It appears to be forgotten that Grover Cleveland invited Fred Douglass to be his guest at the White House. The occasion must have been agreeable, for Booker Washington has been the guest of Mr. Cleveland at his home in Princeton. No sophism is more obviously absurd than that of "social equality." No pigment in the blood can make one human being the social equal, superior or inferior of another, no matter how much it affect the hue of the epidermis. Every white man is not the social equal of every other white man. Social equality consists logically in adaptability for enjoyable companionship. "Socius" is Latin for "companion." it is worthy of note that the opposition to the admission of the Atro- SHAFER SETH LOW, THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE OF THE FUSION FORCES. EX-QUEEN LILIUOKALANI Of Hawaii who Will Visit Washington Soon. American Women's clubs into the general Federation is not from the largest and most progressive cities of the states in which such opposition is found, but it comes from the more provincial clubs of the smaller towns. In St. Paul club women of the high class socially, after being entered by an Afro-American club, find themselves not only uncontaminated at filled with respect and admiration or their entertainers; and in St Louis the Wednesday Club, probable; the most important woman's club in whole Louisiana Purchase, is unilling to throw any obstacle in the upward path of sister women, and no menace to society in the recognition of the Afro-American clubs. The success of Republicanism is even out of the nine state which held elections Tuesday, is quite gratifying specially is this so in reference to New York, where Tammany was so completely crushed, despite the enormous corruption fund that was distributed where it was thought it would o the most good. Though we had no articular grounds to base our hopes pon, we had hoped that Kentucky right redeem herself, but alas! she was joined to her idols. Of course mississippi and Virginia were Hellen and nothing could stop them. "God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform." The Southern people who made suen a mountain of the mole hill of Booker T. W. Washington's dining with the President, have made Mr. Washington a much bigger man than he was before and have brought him to the notice of more people than would ever have paid any particular attention to him. They have made very many people express their honest sentiments, and we find we have good friends where we least expected to find them. Late issues of Southern newspapers, discussing the Booker Washington dinner at the White House, and the trouble over the admission of Afro-American Women's clubs to the General Federation will be interesting reading a quarter of a century from now. The articles in question will, no doubt, seem as strange to the young people of that day, as ante-bellum newspapers containing announcements THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER THE FELLOW THAT SKINNED TAMMANY. of rewards for runaway slaves are to the youths of this generation. Booker T. Washington has been one of the most advertised men in the country, especially since he dined FUSION REHSE THE F with President Roosevelt, and now the climax is capped by his being advertised as the indorser of one of the most widely advertised patent medi- clines. It seems that he both achieves fame and has fame thrust upon him. Mr. Simon Wolf, of Washington, strikes the keynote of Southern friendship for the North when he says: "The South is very good indeed just so long as it secures what it wants; but the minute you tread on one of its antebellum ideas it operates like the red rag to the bull. TUSKE6EE Annual Report of Principal Booker T Wash- ington. To the Trustees of the Tuskegee Normal And Industrial Institute. and industrial institute: Gentemouth College presents school year 1,253 students have in attendance, and the average attendance has been 1,010. About one-third have been young women and the remainder young men. The average age has been 18%, and none have been female under 14 years of age, and less than 18 years of academic preparation. The students have to us from 29 states and territories, and from 6 foreign countries, including 14 from Cuba and Puerto Rico. Aside from the students just named, who are in the regular industrial, academic and religious departments, there are 160 in the training school, which is taught upon the school grounds and a training school. This training school is attended by the teachers of the town of Tuskegee and the children of our teachers, and is not only used to benefit children of the town, but as a practical practice for those of our students who work in the town during the training class is also maintained in the town of Tuskegee, which has an attendance of 88 students, and is composed of persons who work in the town during the training class. The training class is also maintained in the town of Tuskegee for the benefit of women who are in service. In this cooking school, it is the aim to teach students the methods of preparing and serving food, and the hold duties. Most of those who attend ELLOW THAT SKINNED TAN the afternoon cooking school, also attend the night school. Thirteen are at present attending the afternoon cooking school. Those who are in regular attendance at the institution, together with those in the training school, town night school and the town afternoon cooking school, there is a total of 1,514 students. The number does not include the hundreds of adults who are reached through the Tuskegee Annual Negro Conference, together with its numerous local Negro conferences. In the employ of the school, in the capacity of officers, academic teachers, industrial instructors, assistants, clerks, etc., 109 persons. Since its beginning, 498 persons have received diplomas and certificates of graduation, and these are at work in various fields of usefulness in every part of the South. WORK OF GRADUATES. Aided from those who have graduated, it is more than three thousand who have not remained long enough to receive a diploma or certificate, but who, nevertheless, have been so much benefited from their work, they are doing praiseworthy work. In the early years of the school, the larger proportion of our graduates became teachers. At the present time a very large proportion follow the trade or industry learned at this institution and combine their industrial knowledge with teaching, while still others teach a portion of the year and work at their trade the remainder of the time. The calls that come to us almost daily, not only from the Negro race during the war with white as for our graduates to cause widespread fights of racial ness, are many—more than we can HON. H. P.

The calls from white people for our graduates to take charge of various departments of agriculture, especially numerous. If we had the room and means, we could find opportunities for the greatest usefulness for many times more graduates than we are seeing out. In accordance with a vote of the Trustees, Rev. R. C. Bedford, one of our trustees, is spending a portion of each year in making personal inspection of the work of our graduates and young women in such outdoor industries gardening, horticulture, dairying, beraising and poultry-raising, 's proving quite successful. This is especially true of poultry raising. Several of the women in and around our institution have spent any considerable time at this institution are to be found in idle-ness.

GROWTH AND EXPANSION OF WORK. The experiment when we began trying some two years ago of giving training to a young woman in such outdoor industries gardening, horticulture, dairying, beraising and poultry-raising, 's proving quite successful.

In several cases graduates of this institution are planting the methods and the spirit of this work in a surprisingly successful manner, on a large scale in various parts of the South. Especially is this true of the school known as the Algebra Institute, at Waugh, Ala.; the Snow Hill Institute, at Snow Hill, Ala.; the Christiansburg Institute, at Cambria, Va.; the Denmark Industrial School, at Denmark, S. C., as well as several others. It is a notable and encouraging fact that in the case of the schools at Snow Hill and Denmark, that the prime movers and encouraging these schools have been More and more each year we are aiming to secure the most promising students from a wide section of territory and to so train them that they will return to their homes and give their communities the benefit of their training. As fact as possible we are encouraging our graduates and others to introduce training in agriculture into the public schools of the South. This we think very important for the schools located in the small towns and rural districts.

The experiment when we began trying some two years ago of giving training to a portion of our young women in such outdoor industries as sawmilling, raising and poultry-raising, 's proving quite successful. This is 's specially true of poultry raising. Several of the new agricultural build-up, as mentioned above, has been completed. All of these were built-up. needed. Among them a henryery. This new building gives us the opportunity of teaching the raising of all kinds of poultry. All of these friends whose gift made it possible for us to erect the henryery, also enabled us to build a new barn for the dairy cows, and a new dairy house. All of these friends were much needed and put us in a position to do much more effective work. Dorothy Hall, the new Trades' Building for Girls, gives us by friends in New York, to which I made refer- ence to my report, "completed and was dedicated in 1901." This is a very satisfactory building, and puts us in a position to give more effective training to girls than ever before. I friend in Peston, has given us $2,000 to be used in the cove of another training school building, and in Connecticut has given $4,0.0 for a hospital. Both of these buildings are in process of erection and are unque- nified. Morris K. Jesup, o. New York, has given $5,000 for a new barn for horses and mules. This building is also being cons. ucted. Mr. Andrew Carnegie has given $20,000 for a new library building, which has given $5,000 for a ejection. In connection with all these, I am sticking to our original ideas of having practically an of the work done by the labor of the students. In many respects this has been our most prosperous and encouraging year. We show how our financial condition in detail. Very largely through the medium of large meetings held in Boston, New York and Philadelphia and other centers, our own work has not only been kept alive, but has grown and broadened. FINANCIAL. The total amount of money received for these meetings this year has been $189,782.30. Of this amount, $113,104.24 has been used to meet the current expenses of this year, and the remainder to meet prior obligations. The report of the Treasurer will show that the institution is practically free from debt, and friends can feel assured that they give will be used for forwarding to the school, and not in meeting debts. (Continued on Fourth Page.) CASTRO PLANS. (Continued From First Page.) to guarantee the neutrality of the proposed scheme fell through. But Bolivar never needed to receive it from time to time, and it became its principal of his policy. He realized not only the great commercial advantages of a waterway, but the great effect which communication between the Atlantic and Pacific of the Colombian union would have in holding the federation together. A canal across the isthmus would bring all the parts of the country together and consolidate it as nothing else in the world would. The culty of communication between the different parts of the union, owing to the character of the country, tended to foster segregation, against which Bolivar fought. It ensured that the nation into disordered fragmentation. The year of his death, 1530. Bolvar sent engineers to the Isthmus of Panama to lay sieues for a canal. Before they reached the city, laborers, however, the great liberator died in a cemetery dissolved. Bolvar was the father of the idea of an isthmian canal, as he was of the idea of South American unity, and it is, perhaps, a natural coincidence that the year which will in all probability see the canal will not be to be again abandoned until a gateway is complete, sees also the revival of the scene of a Colombian union.

TOUGHEST NOTES The magnificent attendance with which the school is favored is testimony as to the confidence the people of the country have in it. Already we been compelled to refuse to accept the students. The quarters for young men are also all but exhausted. Training in agriculture has become such an important part of the work of this institution that an addition costing $10,000 being made to our Agricultural Bureau. This will enable us to give more and broader work in agricultural training. The division of basket-making added to the Department of Industries for girls for the year starts off with a promise of being one of the important divisions of the school. Miss Carrie C. Smith, who comes to us from Hampton, has charge of this work. GEO. H. MAYS, JR. AGENISWANTED We are Western headquarters for high grade subscription books and magazines by Afro-American authors. Our agents are doing well because our people want good books. For partic- Fewer Among Germans Than Formerly, More Among Negroes Two peculiarities are shown in the recently published figures of suicides in American cities—the recession of natives of Germany from the head of the list which they long held, and an increase in the number of suicides among colored people. In the last published report on the subject in this city, all horrors, it was seen for the first time that there were more suicides in the United States than by those of Germany, the parity was very small. The change is explained in part by the fact that while the number of German men who commit suicide is larger than that of male-suicides of any other country, suicide by German women is comparatively rare and gets rarer each year. The suicides of colored people have more conspicuously observed in the south than in northern cities; the population is small and not increasing, and the explanation of it is found in a single phrase, city life. Colored residents of farms or small towns seldom commit or attempt suicide; in the large cities, where the struggle for existence is under conditions most unfavorable to colored men, that a few of them overcome their repugnance to the threat of violence. In proportion to the total number of Englishmen residing in the United States are very much more frequent than among residents of Irish birth. Among male natives of France and Switzerland in the United States the rate of suicides is high; among women from France or Switzerland there is practically none at all. in respect to the number of suicides compared with the people of Chicago and Franklin rank highest among American cities. Baltimore and Richmond are low on the list. In New York city the ratio of suicides is higher in Queens than in The Bronx—New York Sun. TUSKEGEE Continued from Zed Bar **Continued from 2nd Pair.** Since January 2014, we have received for special buildings and other designated purposes in the direction of improving the **muant**, $28,008.25. At the time of my last report the Endowment Fund amounted to $158,254. Since that time this fund has been a whole of this fund is invested in safe and conservative securities by our Endowment Fund Committee in New York. This committee consists of Mr. Hill, Baldwin, 51, 128 Broadway, New York. Mr. Hill has a whole of this fund is invested in safe and conservative securities by our Endowment Fund Committee in New York. The average interest now being received upon our Endowment is about 4½ per cent. The amount received from all sources, for all purposes, $121,529.08. It now costs annually to operate the institution in all its departments not far from $100,000. To meet this annual expense we are not measured of the following amounts: $4,500.00 from the Pedoboy Fund. $1,600 from the Pedoboy Fund. $800 A. U. Boston. $2,000 from students' entrance fees. $12,000 from the John F. Slater Fund. $2,000 from the Woman's Home Mission Association. We will well as other smaller amounts. Added to these is the interest of our Endowment Fund, which is about $11.5 million making up of the $32,070 that we can afford with our certainty, leaving approximately $88,090 to be raised each year in order to meet the current expenses of the. This money is secured mainly in the form of gifts, individuals, Sunday schools and churches and other organizations in all parts of the country. Burlington Route trains.

Two-fifths of the total amount received during the past two years has gone in the permanent plant and Enclosure. We have a right, I think, to point with pride to the small average cost of educating our students. The total number of students reached being about $110,000, charged being about $110,000 brings the whole cost for each individual to $73. The greater proportion of what the students pay is the cost they have paid toward their expenses in labor this year, $67,291.15. Every effort is constantly being made to reduce the expenses of the in- At this point I cannot refrain from mentioning our indebtedness to six friends whose quiet, unrestricted generosity and great burden from our shoulders and place the institution in the position where it can accomplish much more good than has ever been true in its history. In sorry that I cannot have the pleasure of teaching this they forbid. It is a rare and beautiful privilege for us to have this touch with those souls who hide themselves behind their deeds of generosity. Among our most pressing needs at present are an Endowment Fund of at least $500,000 (towards which $250,000 has been secured). Scholarships of $50 a year to pay for each student. ($20 enables a student to spend four years' curse. $1,000 creates a permanent scholarship, the interest from which pays for the education of a student for all time).

MISCELLANEOUS. Since my last report we have lost by death Mr. Henry C. Davis, of Philadelphia, one of our trustees and most helpful朋友. Mr. Collins, ofington, of New York, has also passed away. Mr. Huntington's interest began with the early history of the institution, and continued to increase till the school has lost one of its strongest friends. Perhaps the most important event that occurred during the year is a visit by Mr. Collins to people interested in the education of both races. This party, known as the "Ogden Party," came here as the guests of Mr. Robert C. Ogden, one of our trustees, and I feel sure that their visit result in much good to the whole South. The spirit of industry is so strongly lodged in the minds and hearts of the students that every student upon our rolls pursues some branch of industry. In addition to other studies. Every student of graduates has received such training in some branch of industry as will enable him to earn his living. When we consider the past I regard that from every point of view the problems of the satisfactory and the relation of the satisfacouraging. It is the duty of all patriotic and conservative citizens to see that present conditions are not dissatisfactory, racial and unnecessary legislation. Respectfully submitted, BOOKER T.
