NEGROES DINE WASHINGTON
The Colored Educator Talks to Men
 of His Own Race,


 New York. April 15.-Two hundred col ored business and professional men att tended dinner given in honor of Booker T. Washington at Carnegie Hall tonight Announcement was made of the found ing of two scholarships in the Tuskegee Institute. Washington will name the ben efciaries.
 Charles W. Anderson, in responding to the toast "Our Guest" said Washing. ton had the saving grace of sanity, the genius of common sense. "As an evi- dence of rare achievement, said Ander- son, 'I want to call our guests atten- ton to the fact that ever 100 of the din CTS tonight paid their subscriptions witt their personal checks. This means that in party of 200 more than 100 have bank accounts. and you know a bank account commands respect. no matter who car. ries it,"
 E Washington said in part:
 We must settle down to the idea oi taking a long, fundamental and philo. sophical view of the conditions that sur. round us. We must not become too much discouraged by temporary and local con. ditions. In the long run any race thai proves itself worthy will succeed.
 'T am more concerned about our mak. ing a continual, tangible. visible progress than am about diverse criticism. Eact one should help to forward friendly. sym. pathetic relations between the two races This can be done not in a grovelline manner. but in a manly. straightforward honest way. It requires little courage ol statesmanship fo- a man Tn New York oi Boston to tell the cplored people what fhey should do in tho way of exhibiting courage in sthe South. Sometimes it re- q'tIrcs mora courage to keep silent ol refrain from action than 1t does to speak or to act"

COMPLEXION VERY PINK.
Young Men Under Dr. Wiley's Ex-
 pertinent Show Changes.

Chicago. April 15.-A dispatch to The Record-Herald from Washington says:
 Officials of the Department of Agricul- ture familiar with the food tests being conducted by Dr. Wiley say the pink complexion taken on by the young men who are subjects of the experiments are rot due to chemicals in. the food. but to the complete elimination of all impurities from the blood. brought about by eat ing pure food alone. No drugs have been mixed with the food, for the last few weeks in order that Dr. Wiley might ob- serve the contrast in the effect of the pure food and that adulterated with bo- rax and other chemicals.
 Up to date, it is said. the chemicals have been found to be absolutely harm less and in several cases they have been bound beneficial The subjects only eat at stated times with the greatest regu- larity and some only with the greatest moderation.
