ness to be called first class institution
of learning.
There are many boys and girls who are
for the first time preparing for entering
some institution of learning. Many are
turning their faces toward the Tuskegee
Institute. Anxious fathers and mothers
would like to know the outlook, are
eager for the unadulterated facts? What
are they?
The location of the Tuskegee Institute
upon beautiful eminence about mile
from, and overlooking the quiet little
town whence it's name, is point in its
favor. Its industries which offer splen-
did opportunities for many worthy stu
dents to educate themselves in spite of
poverty. also commend it to favor; for
while it is hard pressed for room to &C.
commodate hundreds Of worthy students
who yearly apply for admission, these
very industries are taxed to their utmost
to relieve this pressure by the use of
student labor and the erection of COM
modious buildings to edu-
cation and student skill.
The Institute is largely devoted to
normal and academic work. The en-
trance examinations are rigid, and the
student who completes the course is we'll
| qualified for the practical duties of life.
He is enabled too, by paying a part of
his EXPENSE in labor. to educate himself
at a comparatively low actual cost; so
that all thing con idered, Tuskegee offers
great inducements.
It is not the aim of the school, how.
ever. to educate it's students for learn
ing's sake alone, but that they may be-
come useful citizens as we'll in their re-
spective lines of work. The lines of dis
cplne and morality are tightly drawn
and carefully guarded. The standard
of scho'a ship is raised every year, and
less stress is pvt upon graduation and
more upon scholarship.
1t is we'll differed, and the discipline.
though humane and just, is nevertheless
certain and firm.
For q. tual and bene6cir mt results both
in education and industry, the Tusk egee
Normal and Industrial ms itue deserves
we'll OF its community and the public at
large. The standard is set high and the
student is given every opportunity and
encouragement to come up to it.
A good useful library of several thou
sand volumes, with the best daily and
| weekly newspapers, magazines and
periodicals III abundance. is accessible
and free to every student. A course o.
lectures and entertainments is laid down
which every student is free and expect.

EDITOR APPEAL:
Much has been written and said about
the industries of the Tuskegee Institute,
and nothing perhaps that a correspon.
dent might say in a short sketch, could
strengthen or lesson their hold upon
public opinion. They rightly claim the
attention and approval of an admiting
public which is in hearty sympathy with
the great lessons they are teaching the
race, the South and the nation at large
Such industries haye now become one of
the recognized neces sites of human ad-
vancemeut aud natl N /. pride.
1t is easily admitted that those who
wish to learn carpentry, or blacksmith
ing, or shoe making, or any of the trades
Can get them here and under competent
instructors too; but what about the boys
and girls who want the English branches,
the natural sciences, literature, music or
surveying? What are the discipline,

form of an epidemic did the work, and
yet it was Gods angel, for angels you
must know were created to do Gods

The Old Secretary and Controller of I'll
Central Pacific Passes Away.

Central Pacific Passes Away.
Another of the early pioneers of Cali
fornia died yesterday morning at his resi-
dence, at the corner of Grand street and
Encinal avenue, in Alameda, OF Brights
disease.
de had been absent from his Office at
Fourth and Townsend streets for the past
six weeks and during the past few DAYS
learned that his end was near and was able
to make the necessary arrangements for his
business Interests and the disposal Of his
property.
Edward Hunting Miller Jr. was born at
Greenville. n. Y. sixty-seyen years ago,
and came out to this coast in 1S49 ON the
ship Pacific. which sailed from New York
on the 23d of January and arrived in this
port on the 5th of August.
Among his fellow-passengers were Arthur
Nj. Ebbets. Mark Hopkins. DR.. Stillman. j.
Lawrence Poole and Rod MatthewsoD,
while Captain Douglas of the San francisco
police force was the second mate of the
vessel.
After spending eight months at the mines
like most of the early pioneers, he entered
into partnership with the late Mark Hop
kins IN the grocery business In Sacramento
The partnership was dissolved ia 1856 by
the retirement Of Mr.. Hopkins and In 1860
Mr.. Miller also withdrew from the business.
On the 9th Of December, 1862, he was ap-
pointed bookkeeper of the Central Pacific
Railway. which position he held until the
29th Of December, 1868. when he was elected
secretary with seat In the board of
directors in the place of James Bailey, VINO
had held those Offices from the organization
OF the company on June 2S 1861. These
Offices he held TO the time Of his death.
Whom the Southern Pacific Company leased
the Central Pacific Railway, Mr.. Miller was
elected secretary and controller Of the entire
system. and continued TO hold that office
until 1886, when he resigned, but continued
as secretary and controller OF the Central
Pacific system, with a seat In the board of
directors of the Southern Pacific COMPANY
In the early sixties he married a Miss
Ho!tOn in Sacramento, but lost his wife in
1865. after she had presented him with one
daughter, now the wife of l. J. Halton of
the tax department of the Southern Pacific
Company.
MIR. Miller was much esteemed BIZ ali his
associates and the employees of his Office
and his deeease has caused feeling of deep
regret at the offices of the company, where
the flag Is now flying at half mast In honor
OF his memory.
