GROWTH OF NEGRO RACE.
Booker T. Washington Says 1t Has
Reached High Point Here.

Booker T. Washington, in his lee
ture on the Economic Development
of the Negro Race" says:
Let me make this statement, with
my opinion, there can not be found
in the civilized or uncfviliZed world
ten millions of negroes whose econo-
mic, educational, moral and religious
life is so advanced as that of the ten
million negroes within the United
States. If this statement be true, let
us find the cause thereof, especially as
regards the negro's moral and Chris
tian growth. In doing so, let credit
be given wherever it is due, whether
to the northern white man, the south
ern white man or the negro himself.
If, as stated, the ten millions of black
people of the United States have ex-
celled all other groups of their race
type in moral and christian growth, let
us trace the cause, and in doing so we
may get some light and information
that will not only be of value in deal
ing with the negro in America and
elsewhere, but also information that
may be of value in elevating and
outstanding other races.
:'At the close of slavery the negro
not only found practically free field
in the commercial world in the south,
but in the world of skilled labor. Such
a field is not open to him in such a
degree in any other part of the United
States, or perhaps in the world, as is
true of the south All of this has had
a tremendously strong bearing in de-
veloping the negro's moral and Chris
tan life. In proportion to their num-
bers, 1 question whether so large a
proportion of any other race is mem
Der Of some Christian church as is
true of the American negro. 1t may
be granted. however, in many cases
their practical idea of Christianity is
crude and their daily practice of re-
ligion is far from satisfactory: still.
the foundation is laid, upon which can
be builded a rational, practical and
helpful Christian life.
II do not grow discouraged or des-
pendent by reason of great and serious
pro blems. On the other hand, it is
good to be permitted to live in an age
when great. serious and perplexing
problems are to be met and solved
For my part, would not care to live
in a period when there was no weak
part of the human family to be helped
up and no wrongs to be righted. 1t is
only through struggle and the sur
mounting of difficulties that races like
individuals. are made strong, powerful
and useful.

A MARVELLOUS ESCAPE.
Chicago Engineer Falls From 200
Foot Chimney But Grasps Scaffold.

Chicago, April 6.-John Nagel, a
constructing engineer, fell from the
top of a 200-foot chimney at the
Standard Steel Car Works in Ham
mond, yesterday, but in his fall he
struck a projecting scaffold on the
outside about twenty-five feet from
the top, which enabled him to grasp
a plank. thus saving his life.
Nagel was in charge of the building
OF the giant smokestack and in order
to see the progress he assembled to the
top of the structure in a drop bucket
When the bucket neared the top the
man in charge of the hosting engine
below failed to perceive Nagels sig
nal to stop and the engineer was
thrown over the narrow edge above
His fall was viewed with horror by
the hundreds of workmen on sur
rounding buildings. whose attention
was drawn to the top of the towering
chimney by NagePs cries. He escaped
practically unhurt, but the other me-
on the smokestack were so unnerved
that they could not work for some
time afterwards.

An Iowa man tells of an amusing
incident in connection with an exposi-
ton held in that state, whereat one Of
the attractions was the Indian depart
ment, where the red men dwelt in
their tepees and mimicked their own
history in dances and mock fights.
After one of these exhibitions by the
Indians, a Boston girl. undertook to
talk to a young Indian brave. Heap
much fight" she said. H
The rcd man smiled grimly. drew
his blanket closer about his stalwart
form and replied: p
Eyes, this is indeed a great exposi-
ton. We hatter ourselves that our
portion of the entertainment Is by no
means the least attractive here. May
presume to ask who it is that have
the honor to address,"

ADVICE TO THE NEGRO.
Booker I. Washington Encourages the
Idea of Industry.

Chicago. April 6.-Booker T. Wash
ington addressed 5000 colored people
last night al Olivet Baptist church In
opening Mr.. Washington declared his
loyalty to his race.
People frequently ask me why 1
don't move out of the SOUTH" he said.
1T might seem to some that one could
educate himself and enrich himself to
that point where he would desire to
tear himself away from the negro race,
but as long as live my home will be
down there among the black men of the
SOUTH
Above ali, Mr.. Washington en-
couraged the idea of industry. He urged
that every man see that his son learn
a trade and that the young be in
structed to save their money.
Every kind of honest labor is hon
orable," ne said, but the negro should
rise to the mora dignified stations of
life.
THE negro is so associated with
certain humber walks of life, that only
this morning in the train a traveller
took me for a porter and asked me the
way to the dining car. 1 told him. They
have asked me to make up their
berths, but I had to decline because I
didn't know how
