BOOKER WAsHINGTONs WORK.

HE visit of Booker T. Washington to Will
n mington last summer aroused considerable
interest in this State in his work in Alabama Few
persons perhaps know the good that he is doing
and the extent of his abors. They may have
heard something Of his school at Tuskegee which
is large and more important than most people
think.
The annual report of the institute shows that
last year 662 colored students paid S4457 in
fees. This sum does not include board, which
was partly paid for by labor. The total receipts of
the institute for the year we're $4,000 and SllS,-
600 OF this amount came in the form Of donations.
The endowment fund is ST 40l ,440, and the annual
report says that endowment of S4000000 is
needed. The institute owns almost 10000 acres
of coal lands and has prospects of great many
legacies.
Principal Washington declares that the inst-
tute intends TO make farming in AL its branches
the chief work, and il has five demonstrators busy
in various parts Of the south.
There is school for training nurses and which
can answer but one half the calls made upon il
for trained nurses. Principal Washington says that
although the monetary needs of the institute are
still very large the interest OF the general pub
lie in the work is increasing Colored people in
various parts of the country beginning to
contribute 10 the support of the college, one New
York colored woman having given during the past
year Sl2,75l.
The institute is looked upon with high favor
by the white people of Alabama. The Birming
ham Age-Herald says that the spirit of sef-hep
is spreading among the negroes throughout the
south and Tuskegee is promoting that spirit TO
the utmost.
Self-help is the keynote of Dr. washington's
addresses, and it is the main solution of the
called negro problem. The colored people in the
end will have to work out their own economic sal
vation and Principal Washington is doing much
TO help them grasp that important fact.

AUTO FIRE ENGINES
Commissioner Hoff Maps Out
Scheme of Improvement for
Berkeley Department

BERKELEY, March 12.-The pur-
chase of several automobile fire en-
gines, the building of houses at Lorin,
the hillside and north Berkeley dis
tricts and other improvements are in
cluded in q general scheme of Com
missioner Hoff for the upbuilding of
the fire department of this city An
outlay of at least 100000 will be re-
quired for the improvements, and it is
proposed that the city shall be bonded
for that amount.
An automobile chemical and ladder
truck will be brought to this city in
a few days and thoroughly tested, with
a view to use in the hillside sections
of the city. Each will cost about
$4,000.
Commissioner Hoff has been working
for several weeks on plans for
Strengthening the fire department He
said today that some of the districts
of this city were poorly protected from
fire, and that If a blaze started many
blocks would burn before the depart
ment could arrive on. the scene.
Members of the conference committee
at a session last night lin the school
building declared that fire cisterns were
needed in all parts of the city on
account of the low water pressure
The improvers went on record in
favor of the lowering of the water rate
for citizens, and its increase on the
fire hydrants paid for by the city.

Manuel and Joe Fereira, had tapped the

That they were committing a serious
offense never entered the boys mind.
They rugged up the simple device of
long copper wire, with a hook at one
end, which they cast over the teie-
graph wires and then connected
to the barb wire fence. Half mile
away. they persuaded their playmates
to grasp hold of the wife fence and
laughed to see them jump.
The Fereira boys will be taken down
