greatest leader. He ?a?? a man of
unusual force and executive ahililv
and in many respects rose above the
environment of race. In m> opinion
his efforts toward the development

"Born a slave, living a life of ear?

chief executive of an institution of

his own brain and energv. demon?
strates to the world the unbounded
possibilities open to ihose whose

and marks him as one of the able
men of his time."

"8ETH LOW."
Mr. Wise Wires Svmpathv.
?En route to California, the Rev Or.
Stephen S. Wise paused in Chicago to
wire: "My people and I sorrow over
the passing of Hooker Washington as
we rejo'ced in hi? life. He was not
only the guide and friend of one race,
but the servant and benefactor of two
races. The American democracy will
long cherish the memory of this pp-at
and good man. God jrive peace and
>-th to you a','! four children."
In the reams of other message? i.i"
scores from superintendents of rural
schools in th?- South, from edueator.
elaewhere, from groaps such as the
waiters in the Farker House, Boston,
from Represontatire William s. Bob*
t.". of New York; Paul M. Warburg,
of the Federal Reserve Board; Julius
RooOBWald, head of the Sears-Roebuck
Compon] ; Frank Trumhul, president of
the Chesapeake ? Ohio, and acores o?
others of more than local note.
The CitJI Council, too, voted to it
tend the service? in a body.
But the most touching tribute of all,
and the one that would have been most
appreciated by I)r. Washington, was the
?.?most endless procession of aired ne?
groes to the institute. All of these
knew Washington when he began his
work OR a farm long abandoned as
useless, where now stands the model
Institution that has made Tuskegee in?
ternationally famous. Some drove from
miles away in ox carts; all le ft m
tears. Their white neighbors were as
appreciative, demonstrating, as Albon
L. Holsey, of the executive statT, said
to-night, that "There is no color line in
sorrow."
How to provide for the hundreds
of friends, white and colored, who will
wish to attend the ceremony on Wed?
nesday is a problem. The school chapel,
where the service will be held, seats
but 2,000. Several times that number
from the surrounding countrv will wish
to attend. Scores of oth?T friends are
en route from Boston and New York,
and there are 1,700 students and 200
. teachers and officers to c;tc for. To
meet this, the old Tuskegee device,
I used at farmer?' conferences, of throw?
ing open all the windows will be fol- ?
lowed.
To-day Mrs. Washington selected the
spot where I>r. Washington's bodv will
lie. It is in a beautiful valley, imme?
diately in the ?rear of the institute
chapel and within earshot of the pulpit
which he so often tilied. It is here

Well, the government is trying 'o
?how, over there in the UaitSS States
District Court, that Hamnutt and
?cores of other budding songster?
have been victims of cheating. John
T. Mali i? charged with using the \
mail? to ?lefrauii song-writers.
An exponent of "natural mus.c" ont ?
discovered in the rather corpulent'
person of Fdwin ?'. Rice, who admitte 1
on the stand that he was one of tho
judges in the alleged contest for a
prize of $500. Holding .his flat topped
derby in his lap, he sai?i that if one
had a little extra horse sense he could
tell the good songs when they came
along.
When shown a ?ample piece of
music, ent.tled "Banjo Tango," to test
his ability as a judge. Rice refused to
pass upon its stirring melody. "Can t
you real music?" asked Assistant
i'nited States District Attorney Hari
r.dge.
"I'm a natural music.an." replied the
witness, "not one who can judge a
tune without hearing it played. These
words are like the average coon so.ig.
They don't moan much."
?ine of the songs mentioned by Rice
as favored by the judges was another
bv Hammittj entitled "In Dear Old
Moon Land." It begins in the wjll
known scenario style of Fnglish, pre
lamabty with the unnecessary parti?
cles left out to save cable tolle, thuc
"Boy asks grl if she loves him true,
and girl -says 'Sweetheart, you know I
do.' "
Filmund Braham. another judge, ad?
mitted that he had given piano re?
citals from the eariy age of ten and
that now tic was proprietor of one of
tbs oldest piano stores in Bootl
Dakota other wit.-i?- ? Bed t?
having briated and delivered the
c. u.
songs. The trial will be resumed at
1? o'clock this morn.ng.
Charles K. Harris, author of "After
the ball" and. up to a late hour last
night. 6,468 other hits, with several
??l?trscts not yet heard from, ?n
sought out after the day's session for
his opinion on why human being? p?*
?i?t in the idea that they can write
-'ul d tttes.
'its a.l because people can't criti?
cise their own work," declared Mr.
Harris. "One of my eariy sonjis was
entitled 'If I Was ? Chief of Polic*.'
and telling how I w?iuid move all
crowds of saloon loafers on to the cor?
ner drug stores.. Th.nk of that! But
my warst was 'As We Sang and Play.d
Together.' That was rotten. I bought
up ali the copies and destroyed the
plates. Then I committed the song
called 'An Island of Hope.' when ths
title really should have been 'An
Island of Soap." You see I am mv own
severest er,tic.
"Ballad writers are not made,
they're born. It happens this wav.
Some young fellow falls in love and
quarrels The first he does is wrile
a song. A woman marries and divorces
a _i:i. then wonders where he i?. She
writes a song. The Maine blow? up.
22,000 deluge Charles K. Herns with
'Down Went the Maine' with.n twentv
four hours!
"Soldier songs are carried out of
my office by the carload. Tncle Sam.
Once, Forever and for All Time" is i
popular caption. 'Down With the
European War,' writes another, and
almost a dor.en a day call down im?
precations on the Kaiser in song.
"Broadway eaves in, and our office
almost follows suit from the acciden*
ballads. Ju?r before elect.on a well
known attorney came over to mr table
at a restaurant and asked if I could
use a song on the adoption of the pro?
posed constitution'"
We shall conclude with the second
?rrse and chorus of "Love in an Air
ship'* by Charles F. Ancoin. Scranton.
