Robert r. Motion, the new principal
of Tuskegee institute, viii carry on
Booker IT, Washington's great work in
uplifting the Negro race. DIR. II. B.
Frissell, principal of Hampton insti-
tute and member of the General Edu-
cation board, told the National Educa-
tion association convention at New
York.
Booker Washington's life was n dis
tinct victory for the Negro race and
for the ideas for which Hampton
stands" said Doctor Frissell.
washington carried from Hampton
to Alabama n strong belief In the
moral value of regular habits of indus
try. At the Tuskegee school Hampton
ideas were reproduced. Throughout
Washlngtons life he laid emphasis
While he was sensitive TO the injus-
tees which his race suffers, he felt
that the best preventive of injustice
is improvement In physical, mental
and moral conditions. Beeause of his
real love for men. both white and
black, and because he was able to
render great and valuable service to
both races, Doctor Washington exer-
cised an influence second. perhaps, TO
that of no other man In this country.
Robert Il. Motion. the new principal
of Tuskegee, who was commandant at
Hampton for many years. like Doctor
Washington spent part OF his boyhood
in an excellent Virginia home. where
he learned TO love white people and
believe In their kindly disposition
toward the blacks. This love and faith
he has never lost. Booker I. Wash
ington had certain noteworthy charac-
teristics. possessed also by Robert Mo-
ton. In the production OF which Hamp-
ton may at least claim n share-faith.
love, modesty and service.
Washington and Motion, carrying
out Hampton's idea of education for
service, believed in the educational
value of daily activities. Both preached
the doctrine of training the hands. the
bead and the heart.

HoNoRS FOR LITTLE URUGUAY
Il Alone OF Neutral Nations Sends ~
Expedition to Aid Of Shackie-
toms Men.

Uruguay is a little country, espe-
cially as South American countries
go, and few people in this part of
the world know much about it ex-
cept that it is somewhere along the
upper stretches of big river, and
that its chief products, as the geog-
raphies say, are cattle and revolu-
tions. This lack of information,
however, probably proves more about
our own mental furnishings than it
does about the lack of Importance
and inconsequentiality of Uruguay.
Of all the nations not engaged in
great war and therefore desperate
ly busy, only Uruguay has had and
promptly acted on the estimable i'm
pulse to send a ship to bring Shackle-
toms men back from their dreary
prison on Elephant island, says the
New York Times.
Uruguay's obligation to rescue
these freezing and starving sailors
and scientists is rather less than
the one resting on the other larger
and richer nonbelligerents for the in
crease of whose scientific knowledge
as much as that of Great Britain
whose brave explorers risked their
lives.
But it was Uruguay that had the
happy thought and is carrying it out
at its own expensel
The "a, B, G powers" in spite of
all their claims to superiority in
South America, let the chance to do
a beautiful thing escape them, though
they and we know perfectly well how
i'll England can spare any of its
ships at present for expeditions like
this one.

W0MAN'S PLACE IN HISTORY
Mirabeau Had Pretty Nearly the Right
Conception of Their Great
Power and Influence.

Women have always played a
prominent part in the history of ma
tions. Mirabeau once remarked that
an insurrection would be impossible
without them.
During the Reign of Terror in
France the Girondist party was over
thrown and dispersed. Nine. Fonte-
nay, who had been leader in their
councils, fled toward Spain, but was
arrested and thrown into prison at
Bordeaux. at that time Bordeaux
was in the power of human tiger,
one Jean Lambert Tallien. His
lodgings were upon the square where
the guillotine was erected, and from
the balcony he directed the proceed
ings and applauded the most skill
full decapitations.
This terrible inquisitor received a
petition from Nine. Fontenay ask
ing Tor his interference IN her behalf.
He visited the fair enchantress in her
cell and one glance suficed to open
her prison doors. Then commenced
her long career as Nine. Taliien.
She finally married him, and her
subsequent influence over him miti-
gated the horrors Of his rule, and he
became a humane citizen. Nine.
Tallien was the direct cause of the
fall of Robespierre and the occasion
of the marriage of josephine and
Napoleon, and a direct link in the
chain of circumstances which made
Napoleon emperor.

ROMANCE OF REAL ESTATE
Former Possessions Of Dutch Farmers
in New York State Yield
Big Prices.

The sale of block of the Dyck,
man farm recalls revolutionary his
tory while making new history in the
romance of New York real estate,
says the World of that city.
Twelve miles from city hall by
subway, this land brings a reported
price of nearly $4,000 a lot, OF
$4,000 an acre. Great apartments
reared on it are to house 1000 per-
sons, density rate of 100000 to
the square mile.
Just around the corner is Kings
bridge, where Frederick Philipse
took thrippence toll of every man
and horse entering or leaving Man.
haitian. The Dyckmans, Wings in
the Revolution, kept their lands,
though harried by the British. The
tory Philipse lost manors and toll
bridge. His vast estates were sold,
the Harlem Heights properties
bringing $11, 900. The attainder did
not affect his descendants entailed
rights, and New York state had to
pay John Jacob Astor S500,000 to
quiet their claims, which he bought.
Not bad region is this for his
toric pilgrimages. Philipse manor,
in Yonkers; the Van Courtlandt ma
nor, in the park SO named, and the
Jumel mansion, on lands attained
from the Philipses, are all open to
the public. BY the generosity of the
heirs the Dyckman farmhouse is also
preserved to New York as a memo
rial of sturdy Dutch farmer folk,
who, in the midst of Tory neighbors
and lords of vast estates, held fast
both to their acres and their democ-
racy.
