WASHINGTON A TRIBUTE. solemn hush hang ovtr aB Tushegee'a pine-dad A rnitt of sadness, aof and dlza. Tb air around us Oils. Fun many an eye la flned wtth tears. Fun many a heart' In grief; And Borrow here now hold fuQ away iYora which aomaa an relief.

A miKhty chief has fallen saw, A brother, leader, friend, Who to his fellow-man stood eat A ready hand to lend. PuU many a year ago there cams To him a happy From Alabama's barren hitla A vision blight did gleam. He saw an Institution grand Rise some fairy wand; Be saw tall buildings grow in stats Aa if by magic hand! And out upon tho verdant lawna Ue saw a happy band Of youths, who came eager to train The head, the heart, the hand. And as he gased still others came From lands acroaa the sea, From rocky heights, from grassy plains, From Island and from lea. Be saw them In the class-rooms large, He saw them all about; He heard the clanging of their tools From busy shops ring out.

He heard the Dixie songs they sang Ia voices clear and aweet; He heard the inarching, firm and strong. Of eager, ready feet. And then Alas, did he awake To find the vision gone. To find around him empty apaos And tho beauty gonel But In his mind a purpose strong H.Ma nnWA ttmi WAV And though before him mountains That purpose came to atayl How hard he labored day by day; Hew tolled he In the night. To bring to his benighted race A little ray of light! They heard his voiee throughout the Far Nem vouth to plead: His hand was ever hard at work To fill Us srotMrs aunB.MKta mum CbB.

To bask In nappy areams; Tw drink he to his weary seal Fresa Kden's crystal streams. He round him now his mantle draws In one last aweet repose: And to all labor, pain and care; His weary eye-lids close. But though he sleeps In silence there, Btlll through Time's eadleao age. The world will pause to honor him, Tuskegee's chief and sage. And poets yet unborn shall rise To sing His eadless And nations shall eome forth to Mess And honor his great -MRS.

A DEAD LEADER. (From Daily Gleaner, Kingston, Jamaica.) The "Presbyterian" for December, which made Its appearance yesterday, says: "A great soul has passed into eternity. Booker T. Washington, ths most remarkable man of the Negro race In modern times, died at his home, Tuskegee Institute, on the 14th of November. He was born In Virginia about tho year 1859.

The story of his early struggle to be educated Is well known. He entered Hampton Institute and work his way through IT. mmmm mmm-mJt A similar institution, and Tuskegee is the outcome. Ho lived for his beloved Institute, because through it he saw the elevation of his race, and now he haa died for It Worn out with his labors, he passed away at a comparatively early age. But he has left behind him a magnificent record or wnat determination, perseverance and courage, coupled with the fear of God, can do.

Two or three years ago, when deputies were sent over from Jamaica to take part in a great conference, we heard many references to the 'Tuskegee spirit." The man Booker T. Washington has 3 THE NEW YOUX AGE, THURSDAY, DECEUBEH 23. 1915. passed, but his soul his spirit sues marching; on. He has lived to good purpose.

He has given demonstration of what can be done for and by the race in the Southern States. He was ens of the greatest men of the United States. He haa left his mark, which time will sat obliterate. Ha was a wonderfully magnetic speaker, and he was a remarkably practical man. Tuskegee is his monument.

The young people of Jamaica cannot do better than become acquainted' with the work and writings of the late Booker Washington. They will find inspiration from the high ideal that he has set before the students and before every audience he addressed. BALTIMORE, MD. Baltimore, Md. Dr.
