Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
Tuskegee, Ala, Nov. 9.-Mr. Watt
Terry, of Brockton, Mass, the young
Negro real estate agent who has had
such an exceptional career, stated at
the recent meeting of the National
Negro Business League, that he con-
trolled real estate aggregating $780,
600. There were those disposed to-
discredit Mr.. Terry's statement at
the time, so much so that the Execu-
tive Committee of the Business
League, through its Secretary made
a special report in open session with
regard thereto.
Since tho Chicago meeting, DR..
Booker T. Washington, President of
the National Negro Business League,
has been quietly investigating the
matter at the hands of responsible
Bro"kton people. A letter just re-
ceived from the Secretary of the
Young Mems Christian Association
(white), of Brockton, Mass, states:
"Some weeks ago wrote you rela-
tive to our mutual friends TMr. Watt
Terry'sl business, but now I want to
enclose the clipping from the tax list
which you will see is positive evil
dence that at the time the taxes
were recorded he was carrying well
on towards 100000, and I know his
large purchase of 100000 occurred
since then, so with the estimated val
uation of these properties, in the
minds of our best real estate men,
] am thoroughly satisfied that the
amounts reported are very little, If
any, overstated It is certainly a
most wonderful development is a few
years"
It must be gratifying to the Negro
people everywhere to learn that one
of their race has achieved so won
derfully in so short space Of time.
Mr.. Terry is an alert, aggressive, but
sincerely modest young man.

SUDDEN DEATH.

No greater shock has ever come to
the community, than the accidental
death of the three-year old son of Mr.
and Mrs T. c. Moore. which occurred
Saturday about 6 o'clock. It is re-.
ported that the child was playing with
one of the neighbor's children and
that they were pulling one against
the other on string, the string broke
suddenly both children railing. the lit.
tie Moore boys head striking a. hard
substance in the fall, which caused
confusion Of the brain. Two phvsi-
clans were summoned and it was
thought at first that the injury was
not serious but the little boy died
three hours after.
Scores of friends called at the Moore
residence on Jefferson street. Sunday
to offer their sympathy to the strici-
en- father and mother. The funeral
services were held from the Catholic
church Monday morning.

STATE NORMAL
IN POLITICS
RUMoR THAT MANY ARE EX.
PECTlNG JOBS THERE.
Says Victors Should tiaVe the spolls
Claim That Positions Were
Promised in Exchange for Ap-
pointments-People Do Not
Take Kindly to the
Scheme - President
Also Opposed.

Persistent rumor has 1t that the
Colored State Normal School is being
drawn into politics to an extent that
cannot be of any benelt to the school
nor to the people. Several of the
men who were active in the recent
campaign, working for the republican
and fusionist ticket, are now going
around claiming that they are en-
titled to position in the State Nor
NAL School because it appears that
Gov. Hooper is reelected. Some have
been so bold as to say that Gov. Hoop.
er promised them positions If they
would go out and work for mis- re,
election.
Another rumor that will not down
is that there are positions at the
school that are aDpointive, and should
as a natural consequence. change with
the political administration.
This rumor has been persisted in
until it has become common tonic
It is known that the President of the
Normal, Prof w. ]. Hale, is STRONGLY
opposed to any such tactics in regard
to the school. In fact. he has said
on several occasions. and in no un
mistakable manner, that just as soon
as the State Normal was dashed into
politics the Board would have his
RESIGNATION as president. Prof Hale
realizes that no educational institu
tion can he of its full value to the
people If It must be dragged into
every political powow between diff
ferent parties.
It Is not known whether the advo
Gates of such a policy will be able tc
influence anvone. but 1t is generally
known that the neople do not approve
of anv such tactics on the part of poli
C1cians. Thev want the Normal Schoo
to be free of all wranglIng. and they
desire that everv Negro. regardless Oh
what his political belief is. should keer
the State Normal School out of his
political maneuvers. They want thi:
institution to be used for the training
of the young. and not for a politica
paytrain They realize that the bes'
results can only be obtained by suct
a course.
