BOOKER WASHINGTON OF TUSKE.
tSKE DEAD.
Noted >>?rt) Leader and Educator
ISunied From North Last Week
to Die at Home.
Tuskegee, Ala., Nov. 14. ? Booker T.
Washington, the noted negro educator
and founder of Tuskegee Institute,
died at his home h^re early today four
hours after his arrival from New
York. Death was due to hardening
of tiie arteries folowing a nervous
breakdown.
The negro leader h?d been in fail
ing health for. several months, but"
Ills condition became serious only
last week while he was in the East,
lie realized the end was near, but was
determined to make4the long trip
South to bear out his oft-expressed
statement that lie had been 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
retary and a physician, Washington
left New York for Tuskegee Friday,
fle reached his home last midnight.
Specialists who- had examined
Washington said he was suffering
from nervous breakdown and harden
ing of the arteries. His last public
appearance was at the National con
ference of congregational churches,
where he delivered a lecture Octo
ber 25.
Washington Is'survived by his wife,
three children and rour grand-chil
dren. His brother, John H. WTashing
ton, is superintendent of industries a:
Tuskegee Institute.
The funeral will be held at Tuske
gee Institute Wednesday morning at
10 o'clock.
Washington was born in slavery
near Hale's. Ford, Va.. in 1857 or
:S58. After the emancipation of hii
race he moved with his family to
West Virginia. He was an ambitious
boy and saved his money for an edu
cation. When he was able- to scrape
together sufficient funds to . pay his
stage coach fare to Hampton, Va.. he
entered General Armstrong's School
for Negroes there and worked his way
through an academic-course, graduat
ing in Later he became a teach
er in $e Hampton Institute where
he remained until 1881 when he or
ganized an industrial school for ne
groes at Tuskegee. He remained
principal of this school up to the time
of his death.
Washington won the sympathy un^
support of leading Southerners byc a
rpeech in behalf of his race at the
Cotton States Exposition In Atlanta
in 1895. Of undoubted ability and
bfcjeadth of vision, his sane leadership
enabled him to accomplish more for
and among the negroes of the ll/ittcd
States than any negro of hla tirrto.
In addition to his prominence as an
educator, Washington gained consid
erable fame as an author. He receiv
ed an honorary degree of Master of
Arts from Harvard University in 1S96
and wasltiven an honorary degree of
doctor of laws by Dartmouth College
in 1901. . i '

FAT AND FORTY .
A Few Hints for "Stout" People. J
Getting fat means that there is,
physicially speaking either an exces
sive income or a deficient out-go or
both. From this the. remedy wovld
appear simple. Theoretically R
would be either to limit the income
of fat producing foods or, once
they are eaten. burn ^ them up j
and get rid of them, or., both, and j
presto, the change^is'" made. In prac
tice, however, after certain habits of
eating and living have been indulged in
for 30 or 40 years, it is not always
the easiest thing in the world to form
new habits. Only those with abun
dance of will power will succeed.
Jelly fish, with jelly fish backbone
and jelly fish determinations, will
usually go on resembling more and
more the proverbial jelly flsh or sack
of meal in figure. Little hope for
them.
For those who mean business, how
ever. there is much hope. Much can
*>e accomplished and much more pre
vented by observing the following
suggestions: Dririg three glasses-, of
hot water, to which has been added
half a lemon, half an hour ? before
breakfast. For ~ "breakfast, indulge
sparingly in baked apples, stewed
prunes, or similar fruit, omitting
cereals, sugar and cream. Let dinher
consist very largely of salads ' and
vegetables, such as lettuce, tomatoes, j
jurnips. cabbage. greens, spinach,
celery, ?tc. Let supper consist large
ly of the same things, being careful
to avoid cakes, Bwe$ts, mushes, bread,
especially fresh bread, or soggy bis
cuits. Hard toast or graham wheat
bread may be tolerated In small
amounts.
For the best results 'it Is highly
essential that bulky, rather than nour
ishing. foods and laxative, rather than
constipating, foxU be eaten. The
bowels should move freely once a day,
although twice a day is mudr better.
By all means live, work and sleep
in the open air. Burn up all excess
avoirdupois possible by breathing
exercises, by walking, and by exer- 1
rising rather severely every day. (let
up "a good sweat" every day. Avoid
a sluggish, idolent. indifferent life and
disposition. Be active mentally and 1
physici ?I*.- In others words, keep
busy.

Passengers Says Statement; 45
Minutes Given Those Abroad to Take
To Boats { Liner Sank After An j
Hour. ?
Berlin. Nov. 14. (by wireless to
Sayvllle). ? ? The Austro-Hungarian
Admiralty today officially announced
that the Italian steamship Ancoua
attempted to escape after a warning
shot had been fired across her ? bow
and that she only stopped after be
ing shelled several times by an Aus
trian submarine, says the Overseas
News Agency.
The submarine commander, it is
further ascertained, allowed 1
utes to abandon the ship, after which
the vessel was torpedoed. The re
port that the submarine fired on tne
ljfe boats is denied.
The statement. issued by the
Au8tro-Hurgarian admiralty after
declaring that the foreign press had
spread false rumors regarding the
Ancona incident, says the sinking
took place as follows:
"The submarine fired one shot in

upon the steamer flred at full speed, (
in accordance with the. order issued j
by the Italian authorities to ship
commanders to flee or to sink the I
submarine. The submarine pursued
the steamer and continued firing
the vessel stopped only after being
hit several times.
I "The submarine allowed 45
mipdtes for the -passengers and crew
to abandon their steamer, on which
panic reigned, but only a small num
ber of boats were lowered and these
were occupied principally by the
crew.
"A great number of boats, probab
ly sufficient to save all the passeng
ers, remained unoccupied.
"After a period of fifty minutes
and .as another stenmer was ap
proaching the submarine submerged
&nd torpedoed the Ancona which
sank after'an additional 45 minutes.
"If any of the passengers lost their
, lives this was due to the fault of tho
j crew because the steamer tried to
, escape after it had received orders to
| stop and then the crew only saved
f themselves and not the passengers.
"Reports published in the foreign
I press that the submarine fired on the
Ancona's life boats are mendacious
inventions. When the steamer stop
ped the submarine ceased firing."

OLDER BUT STRONGER
To be healthy at seventy, prepare*"* :it

that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
