BOOKER GETS A CHECK.
Atlanta Man Donates Neat Sum to
Negro School at Tuskegee.
The Ogden party reached Tuskegee,
Ala., early Tuesday morning and were
driven to the Alabama Conference
college, where they were given a re
eeption under a hug oak tree on the
campus.
Following this they went to the Tus
kegee Normal and Industrial Institute,
Booker T. Washington’s school for col
ored students, for the day’s ’exercises
there.
Among the prominent men at Tuske
gee on this occasion, in addition to
the Ogden party, were Governor Jelks,
of Alabama, and Mr. H. M. Atkinson,
of Atlanta, and President C. A. Wick
ersham, of the Atlanta and West Point
railway.
Mr. Atkinson and President Wicker
sham spent Monday with Mr. William
H. Baldwin, Jr., inspecting the work
of the institute and attended the even
ing exercises in the chapel,
Mr. Atkinson was so much impressed
with what he saw that he handed Prin
cipal Washington a check for $1,000 to
help on the work.
The forenoon exercises at the insti
tute were devoted to the dedication of
the Carnegie library, following which
an old-fashioned out-door barbecue din
ner was served.
The afternoon was devoted to the
annual exercises of Tuskegee institute.
HANNA FAILS HERE.
Despite All Efforts to Avert, Gigantic
Strike Seems Imminent.
All indications point to a gigantic
strike of the miners in the anthracite
coal regians, involving over a hundred
thousand men
Senator Hanna, of the national civic
federation, has been in New York
some days trying to get the operators
and the miners to agree, but his ef
forts have been futile and a strike
seems inevitable.
It is learned that the operators are
sot against granting the demands of
the miners in spite of the influence of
Senator Hanna.
