WASHINGTON. Booker. Talliaferro Washington, the negro educator and leader, who died yesterday at Tuskegee, Ala., ‘was undoubtedly one of the most re- markable men of his time. In an address before the Philosophical In- stitution of Edinburgh, Andrew Car- negie said of him: ‘“Considering what he was.and what he is and what he ;has already accomplished, the point he started from and the com- manding position attained, he cer- tainly is one of the most wonderful men living or who has ever lived.” Other distinguished men have spoken of him with the same degree of ad- miration and have honored him as a mend. Bnoker T., Washington was born, a slave, at Hale’s Ford, Va., in 1857 or 1858. His owner’s name was John Burroughs. His mother was the plantation cook and had several chil- dren, all born in slavery. Booker never learned with certainty the name of his father. = All he knew was that-he was a’ white man. At the close of the war, his mother, Jane Ferguson, and his stepfather took him, with the rest of the family, to Malden, W. Va,, where he was put tq.work at a salt furnace, - He had never.been.to school, but was am- bitioug to ebtain.an education. After & while he managed to attend night school for. three or four months a year. Then his mother died and he ‘was «compelled. to earn his own living. m:m\ees for .some time, he obtained employment. at the -house.of Mrs. Faris::Ruffner, a lady of New.Eng- land:birth.and.traiping, who, though | very,: exacting. regarding all matters of work, gave him opportunity to con- | tinue. his studies. Having heard of Hampton Institute, in. Virginia, he, determined to go there. ‘With ihs small: earnings and a little money | which. his. brother,, John H. Wash- ingtem: -had.given ;him, Booker was enabled: to yeach.

Since 1882 more than 8,000 graduates and such young men _and women who had taken partial courses. have been sent out, all qualified t good service as teachers or industrial workers. The remarkable success of the In- stitute, which was ipgorporated in 1892 under the name of Tuskegee |! Normal and Industrial Institute, was due. entirely to the eminent ahlllty, tremendous energy and unflinching determination of Booker Washing- ton. His efforts received universal recognition in all parts of the coun- try and Ma. Washington was honored as one of the greatest men of his time and especially as the greatest benefactor of his race. Harvard uni- versity and several other universities and colleges conferred honorary. de- grees upon him. He traveled a great deal, delivered many important ad- dresses and was the author of several important books dealing with the race problem and the education of the American negro. DEER HUNTING. And now a Twin City scribe gives |/ us the following deer hunting rules: Don’t take a pot.shot at the figure in the cornfield. It’s mo credit to bag a scarecrow. Besides it may not be a scarecrow—these modern styles are deceiving. Don't fire a round of buckshot into a haystack. There may be somebody sleeping inside it who doesn’t want to be called so early, either to this life or another. In climbing over a fence with a loaded gun, first unload the weapon, let down the hammer, unscrew the barrel and knock off the sights to make it harmless. Don’t shoot at perfect strangers. Don’t shoot at close friends. Be so- ciable. Remember that a guide who works |. for a measly per diem and smoking tobacco isn’t supposed to double as a moving target. Be not deceived by any “meo” that may sound to the windward. weak is the mere unsupported testi- mony of the spoken word. The dog without teeth seldom holds the bone. And isn’t Uncle Sam about in the position of the toothless dog? Uncle Sam is having about as stren- uous a time in keeping out of the war as the other fellows are having in it. Stay on the farm—develop it— promote it—nurse it—and it will be one of the wisest acts of your life.
