APPOINTED BY PROVIDENCE,
SAYS RABBI HIRSCH, CHICAGO
“With uncounted others, I ask for
the privilege of laying my modest
wreath of admiration on the bier of
Booker T. Washington. He will be
remembered for all time as one of
the greatest sons of America. He
was appointed by Providence in his
own person to refute the erroneous
yet far-spread dogma that intelli
gence, high sense of duty, affection
for one’s fellow, patriotism, are vir
tues and capacities reserved exclu
sively for the children of the white
race. A slave by birth, he rose to be
a liberator not only of his own near
er kinsfolk, but of the people of our
land and the dwellers of earth, of
whatever hue of skin or dialect of
tongue. His educational venture is
a remarkable contribution not only to
the training of the Negro, but to edu
cational science and art without qual
ifying adjectives and restricted ap
plication. What he did for his own
nearer people shows what can and
should be done for all in America.
Intelligence and skill of hand, the
consciousness of the nobility of serv
ice, of the glory of efficiency and de
voted industry, regardless of the
range and the rank assigned by false
standards to the occupation and the
task selected, his system aimed at de
veloping. While disciplining the hand
and stimulating the head, he never
neglected the soul and the Heart.
They who went forth to their life’s
avocation from his school were more
than artisans or farmers; they were
men and women consecrated to serv
ing their family and thus contribut
ing to the welfare of the community
and the advancement of the nation.
His place will be difficult to fill. Yet
the blessing of his life will abide and
prevail.”—Rabbi Emil G. Hirsch.
_
EVIDENTLY BELONGS IN UTAH.
Thomasville, Ga., Dec. 30.—Ten
wives called in one day at the Thomas
county jail to see Malachi Jenkins,
I the husband to all of them. He con
! fesses to twenty-two essays into the
| matrimonial state. He did not bother
to secure the severance of any of the
ties.
His latest wife lives in Lowndes
county, and it was there he was ar
rested and brought back here. He
will probably be in durance vile for
some time to come.
