October Magazines.

Booker I. Washington is one of the
most striking figures In our American
life today. The remarkable wisdom and
energy which he has shown in building
up the great Tuskegee Institute and Ia
promoting the general Industrial educa-
ton of his race have commended him to
the attention of the whole country. His
life and the work of the Tuskegee Insti-
tute are the theme of a noteworthy arti-
Gle In the New England Magazine. The
article is by Thomas J. Galloway, one of
Mr.. Washington's leading associates. 1t
is accompanied by a full page portrait Of
Mr.. Washington and a score of illustra-
tions of Tuskegee. An article related to
this In its scope and purpose, and one of
unusual insight and force is that by Rev.
A. d. Mayo, so well known as a minister
of education ia the South, answering the
question: "How Shall the Colored
Youth of the South be Educated?"

fury closes the volume and brings to an
end the serials that have proved such
successful features of the year. Gen.
Horace Porter's "Campaigning with
Grant" gives a vivid description of the
surrender of Lee at Appomatox, and
corrects some errors that have crept in-
to the generally received history of the
event. There Is short story by Lucy
S. Furman, entitled 1.-THE Flirting of Mr.

But aside from the serial features, there
are many stories and sketches for the
