the two triangles of lace set in the
corners and the two simple sprays of
embroidery in the opposite corners

wider than the under part and has an
edging of wide valenciennes lace sewed

and is rolled in. The pillow is made
of the finest handkerchief linen over
pink. The embroidery design is done
in eyelet and satin stitch.

MRS. HETTY GREEN, 81,
CELEBRATES BY A WALK
Chat and Family Dinner Only
Other Birthday Festivities.

Mrs. Hetty Green, the wealthiest
woman in America, celebrated her
eighty-hrst birthday yesterday. If the
anniversary had fallen on a weekday it
would have found her at her office
promptly at 10 o'clock, but this year
she divided the day between her chill
dren-Colonel E. II. R. Green, West
Ninetieth Street, and Mrs. Matthews
Aston Wilkes, 44O Madison Avenue. A
walk in the brisk afternoon air, a chat
with few friends and a family dinner
with her daughter were the only fes-
Invites.
Mrs. Green carries her years lightly.
Her step is as firm and her eye as
bright as those of woman of half her
age. She attributes her physical and
mental vigor to the fact that she has
always worked hard and eaten health
full food. She has no fads and is not
modern" declaring recently that she
had no respect for women who "dabble
in such trash" az suffrage.
The daughter of Edward Mott Robin
son, Hetty Rowland Robinson was born
in New Bedford. Mass, on November
p. 1884. Her inheritance from long
lines of hardy and prosperous New
England ancestors included habits of
close economy. Accordingly. when her
father and aunt died in 1865 and left
her about S1O,OO0,00O, she managed her
estate with such care that at present II
is almost ten times the original amount.
She was married to Edward II. Green,
wealthy New York merchant, on July
7. 1857, and they had two children.
They lived in London for several years.
Mr.. Green died. in 1902. Since that
time Mrs. Green has dressed in black
and is rarely noticed as she walks
through the streets.

in time with the beat Of the sonorous
tune. Once or twice mellow negro
voices broke and handkerchiefs were
pressed to eyes damp with tears. That
was the one emotional display Of the
love his people bore their dead leader.
Frank j. Wheaton, a leading lawyer
of the negro colony, was chairman of
the meeting. The Rev. B. W. Arnett,
pastor Of the church, opened the SER
vice with a brief sketch Of his races
advance on American soil and the part
that his thirty-year friend. Booker T.
Washington, had played in this ad-
vance.
Mr.. McAneny then told Of his TWEEN
ty-year friendship with the principal
of Tuskegee.
"The representatives Of the city gov
eminent know what his influence has
been for the betterment of his race in
this town. he said. I'VE will remem-
Der il for long. and cherish his name,
both as city and the people OF a
city"
Henry Clews then spoke, and Jacob
II. Schif. following him. said that DR..
Washington was at once the Moses,
Washington and Lincoln of the black
race.
"He died as all great men die" he as
serted, ION the command OF God, for
Gods own reasons. But his memory
will live, and as the centuries roll on
Booker Washington will rise higher
and higher in the memory Of his race
and of all mankind"
At the conclusion of Mr.. Churchilps
address Major A. l.. Reagan. represent
ing Governor Whitman. who was I'M
able 70 attend the memorial service,
also spoke few words of appreciation.
Letters were received from Andrew
Carnegie, District Attorney Perkins
Judge Swami and others. who regretted
their inability to be present.
The service was the result of the
activity Of Major A. Hart and William
o. Niccolls, leaders of the negro COM
mittee which planned the memorial.
