Does Not Make Habit Of Leaving Calling Cards the House Of
Y. M. C. A. WORK
Union Service Sunday Night in Sup
port of Association.


A good-sized gathering from the
various churches assembled at the
Congregational church last evening
to hear Prof W. J. Campbell Of
the Springfield Young Mems Christian
Association, speak of the work of the
Association.
Those who expected lot of statis
tics and generalization were happily
surprised In "A simple Illuminating
way, Prof Campbell made plain just
what the Association stands for and
how it does its work.
The Association is not simply a
fine building on corner lot contain
ing a gymnasium and games as an
end in themselves. These are its
tools with which it does its real
work, the drawing out of character,
Christian character, to find its eS-
preston in service. said Prof Camp
bell And with great conviction he
stated that no young man would fail
to enter into v.yile religious pro-
grom. In fact, there are more young
men participating in the religious ac-
tiyities OF the Y NJ. C, AS than in
the physical department, contrary to
general belief.
He linked the church and the As
sociation inseparably, and said the
Associations failures was often the
churchs failure. Finally Prof Camp
bell said there is no boy problem
Rather. it is a man problem, and as
the men are, so will the boys be.
A generous collection was given,
half of which will so for Armenian re

LEADER OF NEGR 0
!, RACE is DEAD
= 1uSKEGEE
Booker 7. Washington Passed
Away on Sunday
LEFT NEW York; ON FRIDAY
Famous Teacher Realized End Was
Near and Wished to Die at
Home.
LEFT NEW York; ON FRIDAY

Tuskegee, Ala, Nov. 14,-Booker
T. Washington. foremost teacher and
leader of the negro race, died early to
day at his home near the Tuskegee
institute, of which he was founder
and president. Hardening of the ar
teries following nervous breakdown
caused death four hours after Dr.,
Washington arrived from New York.
Although he had been in falling
health for several months, the negro
leaders condition became serious on
ly last week while he was in the east.
He then realized the end was near,
but was determined to make the last
long trip south. He had said often,
II was born in the south, have lived
all my life in the south and expect to
die and be buried in the south
Accompanied by his wife, his secre
tary and a physician, DR.. Washington
left New York for Tuskegee at 4 o.
clock Friday afternoon, He reached
home last midnight. and died at 4.40
this morning His last public ap-
pearance was at the national con
gress of Congregational churches in
New York, where he delivered lee
ture October %. His wife, three chill
dren and four grandchildren survive.
John H. Washington, a brother. is
superintendent of industries at Tus-
kgee institute.
The funeral will be at Tuskegee in
stitute Wednesday morning at 10 o.
clock.
Booker T, Washington was by no
means the first of his race in this
country to demonstrate that there is
no color line in brains, but he became
even more of national figure than
the man he succeeded as leader OF
the negroes in America, Frederick
Douglass.
While opinions may have been at
variance at times as regards Mr.
Washington's private character, no
variance was possible when his in
tellectual merits were considered He
was an organizer for good among his
people. He constantly preached COM
mon sense to a race as impulsiye as
children.
Probably no negro that ever lived
was more honored by white men
than Mr. Washington. President
Roosevelt had him to the White
House for dinner, greatly scandaliz-
ing some sorts of opinion in the south
thereby, but creating throughout the
country as a whole more favorable
impression. Andrew Carnegie, whose
rise from poverty and menial labor
was in some respects not unlike tho
career OF Booker r. Washington,
once remarked that history would
tell of two Washingtons-one white,
the other black both fathers of their
peoples.
1t was through the generosity of
Mr. Carnegie that Washington was
left free to devote his life to the
cause of educating negroes. Mr..
Carnegie gave 100000 to the Tuske-
gee Normal and Industrial institute
at Tuskegee. Ala, the school made
famous throughout the world.

Departs from Custom of Pontiffs-
Visits Church of Saint Anna.

Rome, via Paris, Nov. 14,-Pope
Benedict has made an important de-
parture from the custom of the Pom
tiffs by visiting the church of Saint
Anna, adjoining the apostolic palace,
and thus going outside the Vatican
precincts, according to the newspap-

of temporal power one form of papal
protest against the new order of
things has been the seclusion of the
