As HEAD Of IUskEeEt
Trustees to Eject Successor 70 Booker

ing Today.

New York. Dec. 19.-~Major Robert
X. Motion. of Hampton Institute,
Hampton, - Va, will probably be
chosen tomorrow as Booker r. WASH
fington's successor at the head of the
Tuskegee Institute.
The trustees of Tuskegec have
named committee OF Ave of their
number with full power to choose
Washington's successor, provided that
the five men are unanimous In their
choice. This committee will meet to-
morrow afternoon at the office of
Frank Trumhull, chairman of the di-
rcctors of the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad. II broadway. The menu
bers of the committee besides Mr.
Trumbull are Seth Low. chairman OF
the Tuskegee trustees; Edgar A. Ban
croft. the Chicago lawyer; Campbell.
OF Tuskegee, and Tulane, negro
trustee, of Montgomery. Ala.
The choice of a new head of Tus-
kegee lies at present between two
negroes Major Motion and Emmett
Scott, acting head Of the school since
DR.. Washington's death. No one else
has been seriously considered. and it
is only In the contingency that an
agreement cannot be reached either OF
these that someone else may be
picked.
There has been no dissension among
the trustees. but the Southern trus-
tees have felt that they did not know
enough about ior Motion to say
whether he would be acceptable to
them or not. Among the Northerners
on the board including the men whose
money and efforts have very largely
made Tuskegee what 1t is today. SEN
tlment In favor Of Major Motion has
been strong and practically unani-
nous from the first.

We're, beginning to get back our

You can't have the pleasure that

cniess you have friends and some
nerve.
fou may be az pleasant in everything
But the crowd will catch on to

Al lib with yonr friends by the

When you drop in a hole the world
you may thank,
When you land on that beautiful

Son may talk of your luck and also
your health:
You may be just as strong as an

But you bet your sweet life. if you
haven't the wealth.
You can never have use OF the
