EDUCATION OF NEGROES.
Former President, Grover Cleve.
land Speaks HIS Sentiment
Regarding the Same.

Philadelphia, December H.
Former President Cleveland presi-
ded tonight at a public meeting in
aid of the Berean Manual
Training school, al institution
which aims to give members of
the negro race the benefits of an
industrial education. The meet
ing was attended by prominent
jurists, educators and business
men. Mr.. Cleveland was the
principal speaker, and Booker T.
Washington, principal of Tuskegee
Institute, also made an address.
The institution was established
less than two years ago and has an
enrolment of 200 students. The
colored population of this city is Co.,
600, increasing at the rate of Io,-
900 a year, and this meeting was
held for the purpose of interesting
people of Philadelphia particularly
and people of the country generally
in their education.
Mr.. Cleveland is personally in
terested in their education, and in
accepting the invitation to attend
the meeting he said: Il regard
the object which the meeting is
called to promote so benefcent and
so important to the advancement
of a mass of our citizenship greatly
in need of improvement and care
that / have consider ed it my duty
to comply with the request to
preside at the meeting"
In his address tonight Mr.. Cleve-
land said:
II am impressed with the inn
portance of this occasion. 1t is alb
soiutely certain that everywhere
in this broad land good people
should be keenly alive to their duty
and interest as related to the colored
men, women, youth and children,
Who constitute a factor, large or
sinxll, in the population of every
community. 1t is foolish for us to
blind our eyes to the fact that more
should be done to improve the con.
ditisn of our negro population ;
IA should be entirely plain to
IN Il us the sooner this is under
taken the sooner will a serious duty
be discharged and the more u
ly will we guard ourselves against
future trouble and danger. Our
colorcd people have been supplied
with a measure of public school

privileges, even though in. this
they have been at a disadvantage
compared with their white neigh.
bors. We will not fail 10 esti.
mate at Its true value what has
thus been accomplished, nor will
we fail to appreciate the importance
ofcontinued and increasing effort in
extending to this class of our citi-
-zens opportunities for ordinary
school education.
mo one who has given the sub
ject deliberate thought can doubt
that, if we are to be just and fair
toward our colored fellow-citizens,
and if they are to be made more
completely self-respecting, useful
and safe members of our body poll
tic, they must be taught to do
something more than to hew wood
and draw water. There way
must be opened for them to engage
in something better than mental
service, and their interests must be
aroused to rewards of intelligent oc-
cupation and careful thrift.
Il believe that the exigency can
only be adequately net through
the instrumentality of well-equip-
ped manual training and indus
trial schools, conducted either in
dependently or in connection with
ordinary educational institutions.

grow out of a fair chance to earn
an honest, hopeful livelihood, and
a satisfied sense of II protec-
ton and considerate treatment.

ment, and civil service rules are
strictly applied. The teachers, who
are mostly women, are very we'll
paid, and we discharged except
for cause. When they get so old
they car not teach they are pen
stoned literally. The result is that
the country has an excellent corps
of educators.
49, The-New York health depart
ment has adopted a London idea in
connection with the public schools,
nurses having been employed to
visit the children who have been
sen home from the schools suffer-
ing with contagious diseases.
Formerly contagious diseases sent
home as many as 10000 children
at a time and nothing was done to
make them well enough to return
to school. Now the nurse visits
the home of the child, who has re
ceived a card stating that it is
suffering with a contagious disease,
and the nurse takes the child to the
dispensarv if necessary, and then
shows the mother how to use the
medicines. If the child has sore
eyes she shows the mother how to
use the wash and when the child is
again afflicted the mother is able to
treat it herself.

BLIND TOMS MOTHER DEAD.
Was More Than a Hundred
Years of Age.

Charity Virgins, the mother of
Blind Tom, the famous musician,
died recently in Alabama. She
was said to be Io5 years of age.
Blind Tomas mother was a slave
and was the mother of twenty chill
dren. While Tom was a baby she
was bought by Gen. James N.
Bethune, a wealthy Georgian, liv-
ing near Columbus. The blind
baby was regarded as worthless
and no price was set on him.
While still an infant he showed a
passion for music and one day
crawled to the piano when no one
was boxing and began playing
tunes he had heard. He was able
then to repeat any piece after hear
ing it once. For a time during
the height of his fame his mother
lived with him in luxury, but she
was never satisfied away from her
old home.
Blind Tom is still living in semi
confinement with the family made
rich by his genius at Atlantic
Highlands, some twenty-five miles
out from New York City. During
the summer season he may be seen
any pleasant day standing on the
veranda of the house listening to
the birds sing, and ever and anon
rush in to his great piano to initiate
the MARBLES of natures songsters
with his harmony divine. The
great musical gifts of this blind
and untutored mar were an enigma
to professional Europe years ago,
and doubtless he is destined to go
down in history as natures greatest
wonder in the world of music.
