ly wended its way to the burial plot
on Tuskegee's historic soil, where for
ever the body of the great leader is
to lie. The Associated Press says
that never in the history of the South
land with possible exception of the
funeral of the late Henry w. Grady,
Georgia's distinguished son, has there
been such a remarkable and largely
attended funeral as that of Booker T.
Washington. And as the sun broke
through the hazy mist that seemed to
indicate that nature was also mourn
ing with us in the loss of our great
chieftain and as the band plaintively
but sweetly played God Be With You
Till We Meet Again" the casket was
lowered to its last resting place as
the minister solemnly intoned Earth

amid the tears and convulsive grief
of thousands, white and black, who
stood uncovered in the presence of
that unconquerable enemy, Death.

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON AS A
LEADER
By ]. F. SHANNON. M. L

by j. +. SHANNON, M. d.
Prominent among the requisites for
leadership is the ability to think-to
think logically, quickly, deeply, accu-
rately and then be able to express such
thoughts concisely and intelligently
and impress upon hearers or readers
the import or truth of such thoughts.
AS a leader DR.. Washington embodied
the above mentioned power. 1t was
his ability to think and impress 9TH
ers with his way of thinking that made
him the great leader he was. His
keen foresight, sound judgment and
good counsel will be most sadly
missed. When the great Douglass
passed away Mr.. Washington succeed
ed him as leader, but-and it is sad
to say there is no logical successor to
Mr.. Washington. Men of his stamp
come few in a generation. His dis
/ tinguished and enviable record as q
conservative leader and the monu-
! mental results of his creative power
are cherished legacy left not only
to the race but to the nation.

Other leaders will spring up, some
heaven inspired like Washington but
with different methods. The mantle
of Elijah fell gracefully upon Elisha,
but the fire of the latter never burned
with that intensity which character
ized the first wearer. Yet right on
up the Zigzog course of progress the
man Jesus was born and later the
Apostle Paul. Who knows since no
one known today may inherit the EN-.
blazoned mantle of leadership that
unto us may be born another child
who shall lead this people, or better
still, who knows but what in some
marked spot, town or city or rural
place, there may be a soul painting
and hungering TO take up the sword
of truth that it may not become rusty
from inactivity. II there be such they
will bring to bear some new individ-
uality, some new personal power, some
newer enlightened idea, some new
celebrated name to go on to the bill
boards of time, for as there is not
but one Moses, one Lincoln, one Fred
erick Douglass, so there can never be
but one Booker r. Washington.
In conclusion, this man delivered a
message to the world which it can
never forget; it was the true gospel
of intelligent work. In him labor and
its dignity had brave champion. He
taught not only his race but the world
tho aHx Hxyaf 20 no IF frof nd
hand. In deeper sense, he was a
scientist, because his methods were
correct. He was a reasonable Chris
tian because his conception of relig
ion was above any creed. He cared
nothing for narrow sect any more
than he did for politics. These things
/ could not fit in his simple and cleal
nature. Both would have tied or ham
pered his freedom of action, and II
at any time he was diplomatic it was
/ for greater race results and not fol
any narrow, sectional or political in
fluence.
Death found this man working fol
humanity. His heart was spread in
sympathy over the whole world. Goo
willed him to be servant Of man
kind for nigh three generations.
He fell in the midst of a wonderful
and gigantic development of race en-
ergy thruout the United States Of
which he was the chief contributor
prophet and apostle.
Yes, there will be those who will
intelligently follow his lead. Though
dead, he will still lead because his
ideas were God-inspired and must live

TRAITS OF WASHINGTON.
BY PROF. R. It. COLES.

by fhOr. II. L. COLEO.
I first met Booker T. Washington in
1877 when l entered Hampton Insti-
tute, Hampton, Va. He was then a
very young man but full of life and
vigor. We became friends and dur
ing the two years he remained there
we were members of the same debat-
ing society. We were often selected
to take the same side of the discus
sion. There were two traits of char
acter which noticed at that time that
stood out neutrality-suspicious.
and persistency. These same traits
have followed him thruout his entire
public career. 1t was this same ap-
plication and persistency that caused
him to build up such a great institu-
ton in the Southland and which is
left to us as a rich legacy. He pos
sessed ability of the very highest or
der, and intellectual energy that was
tireless and a physical constitution
that could endure equal to Napoleon's.
In all his work he displayed the gen.
ius of industry, keen insight and a
well balanced and unbiased judgment
upon every subject he investigated.

TRIBUTE TO BOOKER 7. WASH
INGTON.
BY VIM. H. THOMAS, D. d.

by w M, H. 1hOMAS, u. IL.
In the passing of Booker T. Wash
ington the nation at large and the Ne
gro race in particular will have sense
of personal loss which they will be
unable to express. History makes it
clear that great men are a gift from
God. in the midst of our grief at his
sudden taking, let us pause and thank
God for this inestimable gift to man
kind, man of genius. And the next
best thing to the possessing of great
men is the power to appreciate them,
when God sends them to us. Booker
t. Washington, whom we mourn to-
day exercised a paramount influence
in the public life of our Nation. His
policies often encountered great op
position from his opponents, but even
these very opponents acknowledged
that these plans were conceived with
a grasp and mastery truly wonderful
Our beloved leader has finished his
work and has now gone aloft to re
ceive his reward. May he rest il
peace and may our end be like his.

GREAT THRU SIMPLICITY.


Principal Washington, tho nation
al and international character, was
believe, the greatest at home and
in the community in which he lived
Great because of his simplicity of life
and because of his attention to and
interest in the ordinary life of what
may be called the ordinary people.
The most humble laborer, house ser
want, farm hand and the most hum
BILE home received consideration at
his hand. He sought out the unfortu-
nate in the community, the needy boy
and girl in the school, and none went
without his help. He was greatest,
l repeat, in his simple life, in his in,
terest in simple and ordinary people
and in his attention to the common
things of life.

WASHINGTON THE LEADER.
Ry CHAS. A. STARKS.


Today all Ethiopia mourns! The
clock of time has trembled from its
Irregular ticking for a spell, the rou-
tine laborer has raised from his irk-
some task a tear bedimmed eye to
heaven; citizens have walked to and
fro whispering mysteriously, solemnly
and awe-strickenly to one another. In
Metropolis, men have gone from house
to house inquiring, yet hoping that
it was not true. In town, in hamlet,
in rural habitations, in the most OBJ
scure confines the swift herald Of
death has proclaimed that another
soul has broken the chain of material
bondage and spreads its immortal
wings for glory. Not died, but more
like the strange eventful Enoch, "he
was not for God took him"
Thoughtful men of the day are learn
ing that heroic qualities are not ex-
clusively exemplified in the battle
field; or hardships of venture upon
unknown seas, or thru difficult climes,
but that the truest manhood, the no
blest purpose, the sublimist faith in
God may be demonstrated along hum
BILE but highly important paths of CIV
ilization. In the heart of the earth
where men are better established, but
where conditions cry out for adjust
ment, and demand just the same that
somebody labor and toll and sacrifice
their life upon such things that may
exist in order that truth be enthroned
and that right may prevail.
Let historians record the works OF
this great man for posterity and COM
ing generations let poets immortal
ize his life in song and poetry; let
the children of today preserve the ira
ditions of his time in true anecdote
or story; let musician pick his theme
from the varied and soulful existence,
but right now let everybody realize
what tremendous force Booker t.
Washington's labors and ideas have
been, and are now to the race and
this very moment.
What made him great? What mag
ic power brought the white millions
of dollars to his aid? What peculiar
melting force hallowed his personal
ity that drew the average man to his
standard by way of confidence in his
leadership?
And what more than subtle power
inspired the deep feeling of love unto
him? I answer: He was great be-
cause he was builder; he won finan-
cial support because men saw his tan
|gible work and recognized the potent
idea; he melted confidence because
he felt himself and knew the sincerity
and truth of his own gospel; and he
inspired love because he had heart
that ever throbbed and beat for his
fellow man. His life was full of strug-
gle and accomplishment. Born in OBJ
security. hidden under the darker
shades of slavery, but up from this

Cast in mold broken since long
ago
BY Him, the Master Workman,
who disdained
To think that in the sordid clay
remained
Strength worthy of another such,
and so
To earth he came alone. With

Dark vale, he found Truths foot
prints, and so gained
The heights of the Immortals;
yea, attained
The crown that mem'ry weaves,

o fallen Chief! When pressed

Thy race reels back from foes

One shall but say that thou dost

And turn defeat to victory, nor

And when our banners rest in

WASHINGTON,
BY WILLIAM H. DAwLEY, JR.


Courage, purpose, endurance, these
are the tests" exclaimed Wendell
Phillips in his brilliant panegyric on
that matchless sable ligerator of Hay
ii. Measured by these tests, Booker
Taliaferro Washington stands unique,
pre-eminent, unsurpassed.
His was not that impatient, reckless
fiery courage that brooks no dare. But
that that espouses an unpopular yet
just side, and unflinchingly supports
it in all seasons and against all odds
to the end.
His purpose was as an humble teach
er to teach his people how to live and
to live more abundantly. He empha-
sized education as a means not an
end, therefore he revolutionized edu.
cation in this country. Like Abelard
he retired to a desert and it became
a city, Mecca for the great of the
earth. For no European or Asiatic OF
note felt that he had seen America il
he had not visited Tuskegee.

give cheerfully and bounteously Of
their means, to further his aims.

they would declaim and howl and pro-
test this all engrossing thought of "op-
portunism." of working out your own
salvation" "of casting down your buck
ct where you are" plain prosy state
ments to vain people. but classic
truths to thoughtful men. The more
ignorant, the gross, the dense, thick
skulled sons of darkness absurdly inn
puted unrighteousness to his aim;
but why do the heather rage, and
the people imagine vain thing?" Be-
cause it has ever been that they set
themselves against the truth and blind
they will not see. No, the world has
not seen his like, nor may again cast
eye upon such. The times in which
he was born; the unique conditions
under which America labored; the Pc
culiar temper of the white nation dur
ing period; the ever changing pub
lie sentiment as inconstant as the blus-
tering winds could not cause this man
to deteriorate. He saw the shining
light of truth and heard the constant
call of industrialism for his people.

This list comprises the business
places between 1900 and 1900 blocks
on Eighteenth street as far as the
writer went. There were a few in
these blocks who did not close up for
various reasons. In one barber shop
the manager was too busy PLAYING
POLICY to give the writer audience;
another pool hall claimed mo notifica-
ton; a drug store was without "or-
ders." However, we wish to thank
each concern for their consideration
and happy season. The Kansas City
Sun and the League Enterprise had
quite elaborate decorations. Weaver
Florists and the Delmonico Cafe dis
played photos of Washington while
"Ye Autumn Leaf Tavern" conscipu-
ously displayed a splendid likeness of
Mr.. Washington in front of its doors
when closed for one hour. The picture
was richly draped in black and white
mourning.
