COLORED MANS TRIBUTE.

Among the many eloquent tributes to
Mr.. Lincoln upon the centennial ami
versary of his birth, few equal and none
surpass that of Booker T. Washington.
1t is worthy of preservation with the
other best Lincoln literature of the
country.
That colored man, former slave,
of Mr.. Washington's achievements,
should be asked to address an audience
of white men on the occasion of the
banquet at the Waldorf was
appropriate and that he performed the
task so admirably is very wonderful as
we'll as gratifying. Among other things
Mr.. Washington said:
'You ask that which he found piece
of property and turned into a free
American citizen to speak to you to-
night on Abraham Lincoln. | am not
fitted by ancestry or training to be your
teacher tonight, for, as have stated,
was born a slave.
my first knowledge of Abraham
Lincoln came when | awakened early
one morning before the dawn of day, as
| lay wrapped in a bundle of rags on
the dirt floor of our slave cabin bv the
prayer of my mother Just before leav-
ing for her day work. She was kneel-
ing over my body earnestly PRAYING that
Abraham Lincoln might succeed, and
that one day she and her boy might be
free. You give me the opportunity
here this evening to celebrate with you
and the nation the answer to that
PRAYER.
After dwelling at length upon the
many advantages of human liberty the
speaker concluded as follows.
LAS we gather here, brothers all, in
common joy and thanksgiving for the
life of Lincoln, may not ask that you,
the worthy representatives of seventy
millions of white Americans join heart
and hand with the ten millions of black
Americans-these ten millions who
speak your tongue, profess your religion
who have never lifted their voice or
hands except in defense of their coun-
try's flag-and swear eternal fealty to
the memory and the traditions of the
salnted Lincoln. Irepeat, may we not
join with your race, and let all of us
here highly resolve that justice, good
will and peace shall be the motto of our
lives. If this be true, in the highest
sense, Lincoln shall not have lived and
died in vain.
"And, finally, gathering inspiration
and encouragement from this hour and
Lincoln's life, | pledge to you and to
the nation that my race, in so far as
can speak for it, which in the past,
whether in ignorance or intelligence,
whether in slavery or in freedom, has
always been true to the stars and stripes
and to the highest and best interests of

Awful, isn't it the amount Of fun the lord
had in that earthquake in Italy?
With one blow of his mighty fist he sent
lots of people into eternity without due no
tice But that was the lords business
he knew what he was doing.
The shaking up those Italians got is a
very small matter in comparison with the
scare the Holy See had when he took an
acrobatic tumble out of his Holy Bed into
his Holy Socks and held Holy Converse
ton with his Holy Shadow, and sent his
deductions to America as the unadulterated
Holy Law, guaranteed under the pure food
laws Uncle Sam.
This Holy Bosb consists of a divine order
from the Holy See to the Americans, telling
the Americans when it is permissible for
them to eat meat, eggs, ETC., and also when
they are not permitted to eat at all.
l presume that the govt was partly to
blame for this Holy Vision by the Holy See
as well as that Holy Earthquake. 1t is
now up to the priest to put this Holy Order
into operation in our free America.
According to the papers, on account of
this being Ash Wednesday, there will be
a hocus pocus, topsy turvy, presto change
performance at Canal Dover, o. What is
wrong at Canal Dover? Did it have an
earthquake? Evidently 1t has had jolt
of some kind. as the priests, seemingly are
putting the city through cleaning process.
Wonder If Mr. Charlesworth is not partly
to blame for this mental dilemma, which
causes the clergy so much worry and work.
to overcome this commotion? Too bad!
Just when the preachers had everything
sailing nice and smooth, all in their favor
with their banquets and free-wil offerings,
all they could hope for-in steps Satan in
the person Of Mr.. Charlesworth and makes
an awful mess Some of the noisiest ones
were called elsewhere by the lord, when
the picture of Charleswor'u appeared IN
the daily papers.
