LARGEST CROWD HEARD
WASHINGTON.

Mr.. Fuller Swift, manager of
the Chautauqua, in making a
financial report of the ticket sale,
says that there was nearly 1000
more paid admission on the day
that Prof. Booker II. Washington
spoke, than any other day during
the session. Hespoke on Sunday
and it was very hot day, yet
hundreds of people went to the
amphitheatre about l p. m. and
stayed there until after O'Clock
in order to get a good seat and
hear him talk.
1t is pleasure for the Bystan-
der to make note of this fact, in
as much as w. ]. Bryan, Rev.
Sam Jones and Governor Folk
were here on the 4th of July, and
yet none of them had the attend
ance that our race leader had.
And yet there are few pigmies
in our race who says that Booker
T. is not as popular as he was a
few years. He is like a giant
tree of the forest, as he grows
older he becomes stronger in in
fluence, and his work and teach
ings are penetrating all parts of
the civilized world.
