Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute for colored young men and women and leading exponent of the negro race, arrived In Portland from Puget Sound yesterday morning, accompanied by his secretary, Nathan Hunt, and went to the Portland Hotel, remaining there until 1 P. M.. while ar ranging his appointments, when he left for Corvallls to address the faculty and students of Oregon Agricultural College. He returns today for a visit of several days. Dr. Washington, who had the degree of Master of Arts conferred on him by Harvard and Doctor of Laws by Dart mouth University, Is on a tour Intended to widen the Interest and sympathy In the great Institution which he founded In a shack In 1881. when his resources were a brilliant mind, deep faith In his people and con fidence In himself. The SO students of that year have been Increased to 1650 now In attendance, and each year the institute grows. . Portland Baa Two Graduates. Portland has two graduates who owe much to the courage and ability of Dr. Washington. McCanta Stewart, an attornev. and Dr. Nerrlman. a physt clan, and Dr. Washington said that be was clad to say that the colored peo pie of Portland impressed him, from his brief observation, aa being intelligent and carefully dressed citizens. Dr. Washington says that his Is a tour of rest as well as of Investigation. The new country and new faces are a relaxation from the routine at his desk, and making speeches about hla people Is a pleasant diversion, so deeply is te devoted to his labor of uplifting his fellow men. To meet he is pleasant and his conversation Is interesting. Xine books attest his fertility aa an author. "Up rrom Slavery, bis un completed biography, is his most famous work. His latest literary work, "The Slan Fartherest Down." is a de scription of conditions among certain peasants In Europe from personal ob servation by Dr. Washington. "What do you think of the North west. Mr. Washington?" asked bis In terviewer. Northwest Proirresa Studied. "I am enjoying my first trip Im mensely. Western hospitality, which I have read about, is being practised on me and I find myself surrounded by friends In both races. I am glad that I have ample time to watch the peo ple and to study the progress which has made the Northwest famous. "What have you noticed here regard ing the colored people and what do the white people think of them?" "I find that the colored race is hardly fairly represented in numbers. I miss the colored tradespeople. Here nearly all the skilled laborers are white. The colored people I have met are intelli gent and quietly dressed, apparently satisfied with their treatment. "I And that many citizens do not know that most friendly relations exist between the whites and colored people in the South. Unfortunately the crimes of the colored people have been exag gerated and their good accomplish ments have not been advertised. How ever, the people here seem to know lots about my institution, which is pleasing to me. Superintendent Alderman Quoted. "My wishes are concisely what Su perintendent Alderman expressed to a reporter for The Oregonian, as ap peared in today's Issue. I have asked my secretary to preserve the interview and will read it to my 1S6 teachers upon my return. "Tuskegee Institute Is a school for agriculture. trades and domestic science. The graduates who wish to study law. medicine and other profes sions go to such universities after leav ing Tuskegee. I try to implant the value of righteous living and the neces sity of education and industry In be coming successful men and women; citizens whose lives will be examples to others. "Monblou is a town in the center ot Mississippi which is inhabited and managed entirely by colored people. A study of that town, its financial stand ing and moral suasion would be in teresting for anyb.Hiy who is unac quainted with the progress our people are making. A cotton seed oil mill, erected at a cost of f 100.000. was lately added to Its various industries." In conclusion Dr. Washington said that he wanted a lot of people to come to Gipsy Smith Auditorium tonight to hear about the colored people and his work in their behalf. He has been greeted by large audiences everywhere, he declares, and no admission Is charged. Rich and poor alike are welcome. Just one incident showing his char acter occurred when he was asked if he had had luncheon, as his train would leave in half an hour. "Xo." he anwered. "I forget to eat when I start talking about Tuskegee," and be com menced packing his bos. I CALL EAST IS GIVEN Rev. J. H. Cudlipp, D. D., May Go to Iowa Pastorate. BISHOP'S CONSENT NEEDED First Methodist Episcopal Ohurch, of Ottumwa, Extends Request and Only Irmality Necessary. Exchange Favorable. Rev. J. H. Cudlipp, D. D., for several years pastor of tne old Grace Metho dist Episcopal Cnurch. and at present assistant pastor of the First Church. Portland. In all probability will be transferred to the pastorate of First Church, Ottumwa, Iowa. The only action necessary to the final transfer Is the consent of Bishop Bris tol, who has episcopal supervision over the conference wnere. tne wiumi church Is located. It is believed he will make the necessary formal order, when Dr. Cudlipp will be formally sent from the Oregon Conference, of which he is now a member, to the Iowa conference. The church at Ottumwa is one with a membership of 1100, and Is a progres sive and aggressive congregation, so that It is considered a great honor to be pastor of It. Dr. Cudlipp Is pleased with the call, but he Is not certain he Is going, as he must await the action of the bishops concerned. Transfer Yet Incomplete. Bishop R. J. Cooke, the resident hlfthnn of Oregon, with episcopal resi dence at Portland, said last night that the proposed transfer of Dr. Cudlipp Is incomplete as yet. owing to me neces sity of the action by Bishop Bristol be ing still lacking. He would express no oolnion aa to the outcome, but Metho dists generally In Portland believe that Dr. CudliDD. who is one of the best preachers in the connection, will In due time be Installed as pastor of the Ottumwa Church. As a general rule, Methodist Disnops transfer preachers to the charges hich want them and to which the preachers wish to go. when it is prac ticable. In this case both congrega tion and pastor concerned are anxious for the exchange, and it Is believed that it will be so determined without undue delay, the only necessary thing being episcopal formality. Dr. cudlipp cam to t-oruana irom Wichita, Kan., exchanging pulpits at that time with Dr. W. H. Heppe, one of the best-loved pastors who ever held a charge In the Oregon conference. Dr. HeDne held the pastorate for several years at Centenary Church, East Ninth and East Pine streets, when he was transferred to Grace Church by order of Bishop Moore, who at the time was the president of this conference. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, now general secretary of the temperance society, with headquarters at Topeka, Kin, was changed from Grace to Centenary. Pastorate la Successful. Dr. Cudlipp had a successful pastor ate at Grace Church, serving until It is decided that Grace Church and Taylor-street church should be merged and organized into what is now the First Methodist Episcopal Church. A new edifice, designed on modern lines. to take the place of the present one at Third and Taylor-street, will be con structed on the site of the present Grace Churc'a, at Twelfth and Taylor streets. At the last session of the Oregon Conference, the formal merging of Grace and Taylor-street churches hav ing been accomplished, Dr. Cudlipp was left without a pastorate. For that reason Bishop Cooke assigned him to the assistant pastor ate of the new First Church, but It has been understood all the time that this was but a temporary arrangement, and that Dr. Cudlipp, in due time, would be assigned to some first-class charge In some of the conferences. He has naa other calls, but regards this one as the best of them alL CHARITY FUND IS LARGER Poor to Be Instructed In Rudiments of Domestic Science.

At a meeting of the municipal sani tation committee Monday an effort will be made to clear up all the unfinished business and make a report to Mayor Rushlight and the City Council. The committee, comprising leading busi ness men and representatives of the newspapers, has gone into the sanitary conditions of the city in detail to de termine the feasibility of a new gar bage Incinerating plant or some other means of disposing of the garbage of the city which cannot be handled by the present incinerator.

Dr. Toulouse, the scientist, in the Kxcelslor, argues in favor of giving votes to women. He points to the fears enter tained when women were admitted to the Sorbonne. Today women are nearly as numerous as men In the University of Paris. Many predicted the end of study, saying it would be replaced by flirting. Of course, sentiment has its place here as elsewhere, and many a marriage has been made in the peaceful atmosphere of the laboratory. But it does not appear that the general course of study has been affected. And the same thing could happen In Parliament as at the Sorbonne. However, observes this medico-psychologist, the average age of the women called to be Deputies and Senators would be a guarantee against sentimentality. "For my part, I pronounce for woman suffrage because women occupy them- , 1 i . . 1 ntfh TinlitieS- F.VftTV- seivea bw , - .where they have won the vote they have lougnt aruimouucno au-u-tion, and realised reforms useful to public health and the protection of chil dren."
