THE NEGRO PROBLEM.
Former President Cleveland Says
Mental and Manual Training Is
Greatest Need of the Race.

New York, April 15.-Former Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland was the princi-
pal speaker Tuesday night at meet
ing held in the concert hall of Madi-
son Square Garden in the interests of
the Tuskegee normal and industrial
institute. After declaring himself a
sincere friend of the negro and prais-
ing the work done by Booker Washing
ton for the race, Mr.. Cleveland closed
as follows:
'In summing up the whole matter,
there is one thing of which we can
be absolutely and unreservedly GER
tain. When we aid Tuskegee institute
and agencies like it. striving for the
mental and manual education of the
negro at the SOUTH we are in every
point of view rendering him the best
possible service. Whatever may be his
ultimate destiny, we are thus helping
to fit him for filling his place and bear
ing it's responsibilities. We are sowing
well in the soil at 'the bottom of life
the seeds of the black mans develop
ment and usefulness. These seeds will
not die, but will sprout and grow;
and, if it be within the wise purpose
of God, the hardened surface of no
outward sentiment or prejudice can
prevent the bursting forth Of the blade
and plant of the Negroes appointed OPP
portunity into the bright sunlight of
a cloudless day."

UNITED AT NEWPORT.
Kathleen Nelson and Reginald Van-
derbilt Married Amid a Scene
of SDlendOr.

Newport, r. l., April 1.-THE we'd
ding of Reginald c. Vanderbilt, Of
New York, the youngest son of the
late Cornelius Vanderbilt, and Miss
Kathleen G. Nelson, also of New
York, which occurred at "Arleigh"
at noon Tuesday, was brilliant as
well as an early beginning of the
social season of 1908 at Newport.
AS the marriage took place in pri-
vate villa, it lacked much of the
splendor which usually attends q
church function. About $50 guests,
nearly all from New York, were pres
ent.
1t was white wedding. The dec
orations were white on background
of green, the bridesmaids were
gowned in white with white picture
hats; the bridegroom, his best man
and the ushers wore white puff era
watts and white boutonniers and the
bride, of course, was attired in the
purest white. The weather sulked and,
instead of sparkling spring day, it
was gray and cold, with misty
northeast wind blowing in from the
sea.
For an hour preceding the cere-
mony an orchestra played, and just
at noon the measured strains of the
Lohengrin march signaled the ap'
proach of the bridal party. Rev. Fa'
Their Meenan, attended by two altar
boys, previously had taken his place
at floral altar, and just as the pro-
cession started down the grand stair
case Mr.. Vanderbilt, accompanied by
his elder brother, Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilt, took positions beside the
priest.
The bride was gowned in heavy
white silk with costly veil of rare
lace flowing back from the crown of
her head to the end of the train.
Around her throat was tightly
clasped serpent necklace of rarest
pearls, the gift of the bridegroom.
The ceremony was brief. Its COM
pletion was indicated by the Men,
delssohn march. A reception fol-
lowed and an inspection was made
of the bridal gifts, which were de-
clared to be probably as costly an
array as was ever bestowed on two
young people at the advent of their
married life. Then came the wed.
ding breakfast.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vanderbilt left foG
their new villa at Sandy Point, few
miles up the island, during the after
noon, where they will spend a few
days previous to a three months
trim to Europe.

NEW GERMAN LINER.
Kaiser wilhelm ii. Hopes to Break
Ocean RecOrd-Mny BE Wsur V,es-
sci In Disguise.

Berlin. April 15.-Emperor Williams
eyes and those of the whole German
shipping world are centered on the
great six-decker, the Kaiser Wilhelm
H., which left Bremerhaven on it's
maiden voyage to New York at noon
Tuesday. His majesty shares the hope
of the owners that his namesake will
prove the swiftest liner atloat and be
the first to cross the Atlantic under
five days. The result of the trial trip
from Stettin to Swinemunde a week
ago was kept secret, but the informa-
ton leaked out that the leviathan
easily accomplished the contract speed
of 23h knots.
North German Lloyd officials say that
no attempt will be made to push the
new vessel on it's initial passage. yet,
If it should encounter fair weather,
they hint that it is likely to do sensa-
tional things. AT any rate they are
confident that before the season is
very old the Kaiser Wilhelm ii. will
oreak the transatlantic sea record now
held by the Deutschland.
The new steamer, according to an
article written by man said to have
access to special sources of informa-
ton, is primarily intended to be an
armored cruiser of the German navy
in time of war. The leading idea in
her construction, according to the
writer, has been that of her use as
a war vessel. In the construction of her
hull, her machinery, her superstruc-
ture, the first consideration was her
possible use as cruiser. She is sup-
posed to be the embodiment of naval
science, as understood by the German
emperor and his staff of naval ex-
perts.
"In service as an army transport
the Kaiser Wilhelm III. could carry a
regiment of 5000 men with equipments
and stores. CHASING the double bot
tom of this ship as ground floor she
may be said to be seven stories, or
seven decks high, measuring exactly
" feet z inches high from keelson to
the roof of the smoking-room.

DIR. MILBURN DEAD.
Blind Chaplain of the United States
Senate Passes Away in
California.

Washington, April 11.-Rev. Will
liam Henry Nlilburn, the venerable
blind chaplain of the United States
senate, died in Santa Barbara, Cal,
Friday. Word to this effect was re-
ceived here by Col. ID. A. Ransdell, the
sergeant at arms of the senate. Mr..
Milburn, accompanied by his two
nieces, the Misses FINLEY, left Wash
ington for the Pacific coast about
year ago. The chaplain was in broken
health. The change brought no great
improvement in his condition and
when congress met in December he
forwarded his resignation to Wash
ington, but it was never acted on.
The deceased was native of Phila-
delphia, where he was born in 1923.
