LORED MANUAL TRAINING SCHOOL I Be a Valuable Accession to Pearl High School. BE PEOPLE, THOUGH TAX PAYERS, ARE GRATEFUL FOR THIS TO THE POWERS THAT BE—WHAT THE CITY BUDGET CARIES APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE BENEFIT OF COLORED CHILDREN, IS AS IT SHOULD BE. this is an assured fact, as it has learned from reliable sources an appropriation of $5,000 has made, which will be used in addition to new branch for the benefit of taxpayers' children of Nashville. It will be remembered that at the commencement exercises held in a man Auditorium last June Prof. Smith, Principal of Pearl High School, in his annual address urged the board of Education to make some relations to the Nashville High School would keep it third, if not move to second, to any high school in United States for Negroes. This commendation seemed to strike a far chord, and immediately after exercises were over, Mr. Josephattle, editor of the Globe, and Mr. Mary A. Boyd, treasurer of the Globe, reviewed President Leonard Parkes the stage, and were promised by a fair-minded educator that he would recommend some improvement the curriculum of the high school.quiet force has been at work reading the Board and its members is promise, and it appears that it is not been without its effect. It is also learned that Superintendent C. Weber, who has ever been mindful of the colored schools, and his influence in getting many things for the different schools, is not all that will be the Negroer's appropriation in the way of school facilities. It is an aspect that two new schools will ready for the next scholastic year their doors thrown open to Ne children. The budget for 1907 already been approved by Mayor is. This new budget carries with new school building to be located near street to cost $12,000. And a new building to be located in smaller Bottom to cost $10,000. The cost in Tremble Bottom is to take place of the frame building now half by the Board and used for colored children. Prof. Neal has taught this locality under many disadvantages; hence this will be a relief come at the right time. The budget so carries $1,500 to enlarge and retain Carter School on Kayne avenue. his practically makes three new schools. There was no appropriation, however, made for the repairing of Bowles School, which is almost in a capitalized condition, and is now opped up in order to serve its purpose. The opening of these two new schools will make the demand for principals and teachers very great in Nashville. Yet the talent is here, for the principals can be selected from the most competent teachers already at work, while the new teachers can be laid from the graduates of the high school and the two universities. That the Negroes of Nashville appreciate these conditions, goes without saying. They have been patient and loyal at all times. It is not known just when work will begin, but it is believed that the contracts will be let early in the spring and work will begin at once. The high school at present is full and the was this year, judging from the number already in school, will be a large one. Principal Smith was interviewed by a Gibbe reporter relative to the facts, but said that he could give her nothing definite, yet he believed work the public had every reason to expect that the appropriation would be used in the way named by the weekly Nashville needs larger schools. Mr. Cyr schools. Hundreds of chilcorman, out on account of the the largest edition of the schools machine. Children are compelled to narrowed dowwo miles because of the Raines and pools carrying the high-two gentlemen manual training idea every inch of insiderably. President James Messrs. Battie manual in adding man it would not take away the higher branches of study. Yet every one sees the need for adding both the higher education and the manual training for those who want to take either. The school will be a credit to greater Nashville in its march as a metropolitan city. BACK STAMPING DISCONTINUED. Some of the business firms of Nashville are expressing their disapproval and their general dissatisfaction of the recent general order issued by the post-office department in cutting down the expenses by discontinuing the back stamping of the incoming first-class mail. There was a time when if a letter was mailed at New Orleans, at a certain hour in the day and addressed to a party in Nashville, the recipient could tell to the hour when it was received in Nashville, thereby knowing where to place the blame if the letter was not delivered by the carrier within a reasonable time. The discontinuance of this part of the mail service prevents this, thus making it impossible for one to know where the letter has been delayed if a delay is occasioned. This was not so evident and not so generally felt until within the last two weeks. A very large business firm in this city suffered quite a loss on this account last week. A letter was mailed from a certain large city only one night's ride from Nashville and should have been delivered in Nashville the next morning before noon but the same letter was delayed 48 hours. There was no way to ascertain who is responsible for this delay as the postmark on the front of the letter only showed that it was mailed at a certain time. Whether it was delayed on the railway postal car or in the postoffice proper, is a matter that is unexplained. It is to be hoped that a sufficient protest will be made by the public to the postoffice department to re-establish this much needed back stamping. It has been said by well informed business men that the post office department could better afford to refuse to admit thousands of pounds of public documents, which cause a large part of the deficiency, than it could to dispense with this satisfactory way of keeping up with the receipt of and disposition of mails. Postmaster Wills has not been interviewed by the Globe reporter, but as he is generally in favor of giving satisfaction to the patrons of his office, it is believed he would not oppose a general protest being made by Nashville's business men to the post office department. It is the opinion of many of the large patrons of the Nashville post office that six months longer will convince the Postmaster General that this is not a wise step in cutting out the appropriation for back stamping and that public sentiment will force a reinstatement which is for the protection of the mail order houses and other business firms in large cities. REPORTS OF OUTRAGES EXAGGERATED. Special correspondence to Nashville from Fort Sam Houston, Texas; Elreno, O. T., and other ports where soldiers are stationed, bear out the assertion that these reports of outrages by Negroes or by Negro soldiers, are exaggerated. Their sole purpose appears to be to poison the minds of the people and create a sentiment against Negro soldiers. It is learned from a reliable source that not one of the reported assaults could be traced to Negroes. In fact, not one person in a position to know, could say positively that a Negro made an assault. Newspaper dispatches are sent out from these various places by white men reporting for white papers. They know nothing of the crime or its perpetrators. They color the report to suit their own prejudices and indications point very clearly to the fact that the intention of these despatches is to aid in making unpopular the gallant braves of the Spanish-American War or the direct descendants of the famous heroes of Ft. Pillow, and Ft. Wagner. An old resident of Brownsville, Texas, who crossed the Rio Grande into Mexico about ten years before the emancipation proclamation was issued, and remained until after the freedom of the slaves—when he went to Brownsville, Texas, to make his future home, was heard to remark: "Because Negro troops had been stationed at Texas posts it had been decided by a few men who directed municipal affairs, to get rid of the Negro troops, and the only way that this could be done was to hatch up something on them and magnify it." The disturbance at Brownsville does not compare with the recent "shooting up" of the street car in Florida. Nor does it compare with the horrible outrages of the Fourth United States Volunteers while sta tioned at San Antonio, Texas. Said he; "Just prior to their going to the Philippine Islands, when almost the entire regiment would 'tear up' the town every day day." He said further that if an investigation would be started which would prove that those people who saw the shooting over the garrison walls were either dreaming or having imaginary visions. Such is the remark coming from an old Texan who knows that it would be almost impossible to see even if this occurred, the shots coming from over the garrison walls. MANDOLIN RECITAL AT THE BLIND SCHOOL. The members of the faculty and students of the Tennessee School for the Blind, located on Tennessee street, were highly entertained Friday evening last by a mandolin recital by Mr. Frank A. Gordan, of Fargo, N. D., who is at present a student of Fisk University. The program, while neatly arranged in every respect, was pleasing as well as helpful to the students and faculty. Some highclass music was rendered during the evening. Misses Lizzie Wells and Minnie Mae Hunter, two of the teachers, assisted in arranging the music for Mr. Gordon. The principal of the school, Mrs. Lowe, together with the faculty, was highly pleased. The students showed their appreciation for this musical treat by rendering several piano solos and duets. Many of the advanced pupils in this school are first-class musicians and have from time to time appeared in public recitals, rendering very difficult music. APPROACHING THE THREE-MILE POST. ANNUAL MEETING OF ONE-CENT SAVINGS BANK WILL BE HELD JANUARY 14. The general call for stockholders' meeting of the One Cent Savings Bank of Nashville, Tenn., has been issued by the President and Cashier. The fiscal year of 1906 will be closed and its reports made up. At the convening of this meeting will be marked the third anniversary of this institution. No city in the United States can boast of a more prosperous and well managed financial concern than can Nashville. The stockholders and directors exercised wisdom and forethought in selecting its board of directors and officers, who have labored incessantly to dispose of the stock and increase the deposits of the institution. The third annual report which is issued will show remarkable progress in financial circles. At the beginning of the new year, it has been learned that strenuous efforts will be put forth to dispose of all the unsold shares at their par value. Notwithstanding they have advanced until they are worth 12 cents on the dollar or at least a dividend of 12 per cent was declared at the last annual meeting. It is predicted that at the meeting next week a more startling dividend will be declared. The institution has not attempted to make any more improvement in the line of fixtures and office furniture, but it is devoting its entire time to the better treatment of patrons and stockholders. Yet many of the business men have not shown their interest enough to become depositors or stockholders. A Globe reporter in interviewing the cashier learned that after a careful calculation that if one-fourth of the money handled by the Negroes and deposited in white banks, was put on deposit in the One Cent Savings Bank, it would show that the Negro had boarded up in these institutions over five millions of dollars each year that could be advantageously and creditably deposited in the One Cent Savings Bank. There is not a safer institution within the bounds of the Volunteer State. The comptroller of currency has given flattering compliments for the management after each quarterly inspection, which of itself should bring an endless chain of new depositors and purchasers of stock to this worthy banking house. An election of officers for the ensuing year will be held pursuant to a call at the first annual meeting. Stock will be sold and a general revival of interest will be attempted.

(Signed.) J. C. NAPIER, Cashier. Subscribed and sworn to before me, this 31st day of December, 1906. (Signed.) C. N. LANGSTON, (Seal.) Notary Public. A WHITE MINISTER SCORED. In an recent issue of the Mt. Pleasant Record, Rev. A. S. Allen asserted that the Negro questioned would not be settled until the 15th amendment to the Constitution was abolished. His article was answered by Dr. J. O. Johnson, presiding elder of the Columbia District A. M. E. Church. We publish herewith his reply to Rev. A. S. Allen. Rev. A. S. Allen raises the question: "When and where will the Negro find rest?" From the tone of the article it does not appear that Mr. Allen cares very much whether the negro has any at all. He asserts that the negro will find rest when he is disfranchised. In every Southern state he is practically disfranchised by educational, property and other qualifications. But this can only be temporary, as negroes everywhere are fast reducing their ignorance and accumulating property. The South will finally accept the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution with good grace. We might as well talk about abolishing the law of gravitation as of abolishing any of the war amendments" to the constitution. The negro has done too much for this country in all of its wars, and in developing its resources, in the mines, on the farms, and as servants in many capacities. We have a heritage here as much as any white man, and though we are now denied many of the benefits of the laws—yet we still claim them. Revolutions never go backward. The negro will never be disfranchised. The white man of to-day came up from barbarism to civilization. Any man who has read Lord Macauley's or Green's or Froude's history of England knows this, that the white man of to-day had a very unpromising beginning. Julius Caesar declared that the early Britons were unfit for civilization, but to-day these men are the masters of the world. Fifty years ago who would have predicted that the Japanese would have developed such a great civilization? or that a yellow race would have whipped a white race as in this case. Rev. Allen is certainly not informed as to the real and essential progress of the negro. He knows more about the criminal negro than he does of that great progressive, upward-moving negro who is lifting the burdens of the South and is building himself up and buying homes and building churches and schools. But no race is to be judged by its criminals. It is unjust for the South to be judged by its mob leaders or by men of the Tillman and Vardaman class. It is very unfortunate that the press should give so much space to proclaiming the faults of the negro, and this, too, in the face of the fact that the negro is universally trusted in thousands of important places in the life of the South. The gospel which Rev. Allen claims will make the negro moral, has failed in this respect with a certain class of whites who still seek to contaminate young colored women in the South. I am in a position to know that the negro is making great progress toward higher moral standards, and the whites ought to help us move in this direction. This can be done by abolishing the low die this and other towns. (C Page 3.) DRIVERS' MUTUAL AID ASSOCIATION Sensible Organization of Men of a Common Calling. WHAT IT HAS PAID OUT FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITS SICK MEMBERS IS WORTHY OF ITS HIGH PURPOSE-BALANCE OF $2,000 NOW IN BANK INSURES ITS MEMBERS AGAINST THE NECESSITY OF PUBIC CHARITY. The members of the Drivers' Mutual Aid Association celebrated their sixteenth anniversary last Monday night, January 7, by a banquet and installation in their hall in the Boyd Building on Cedar street. The hall was beautifully decorated by the ladies, who were highly complimented by all. After the regular routine of business, President Green introduced Dr. W. H. Key, who was the founder of the organization. He was given the gavel and asked to conduct the installation services. He said he was proud of the high privilege of installing the officers for the ensuing year, and hoped that they would prove themselves deserving of the authorities entrusted to them. "Dark was the night and cold the ground," was sung very feelingly, and the president given the jewel of his office. The following are the officers installed: H. T. Green, president; Isaac Body, vice president; S. J. Chandler, financial secretary; Mansfield Douglass, recording secretary; W. B. Marshall, assistant secretary; W. C. Foster, treasurer; J. Johns, chaplain; Sias Rhodes, sentinel; R. M. Fall, Marshal. President Green, upon taking the stand, stated the purpose of the Association. He said $500 had been paid to the sick during the year, and that a cash balance of $2000 was in the treasury. Real estate to the amount of $1,200 was owned, and not a deposit by the organization but what could be paid by nine o'clock the next day. Four wildows of deceased members were called forward, namely: Mother Edith Scales. Mrs. Martha Thompson, Mrs. Scottie Bramlett and Mrs. Adkins, each was presented $5.00 as a gift from the Association. Attention was then turned to the "New Years," which was arranged in the style of a regular Christmas tree, it was ladened with presents for many of those present. The president announced that the guests would be turned over to the Reception Committee who would serve the many vials prepared for the occasion. Mr. Coffey, proprietor of the Spa Cafe, served the large crowd in a way very creditable to himself. The Association had in store a very pleasant surprise for President Green in a beautiful gold watch, which was presented to him by Mr. S. J. Chandler, financial secretary. Only one feature of this organization noticeable that deserves criticism and that is they make all of their deposits in banks operated by white men, ignoring entirely their own, the One Cent Savings Bank. This institution does not handle 10 per cent of the money deposited in banks by Negroes in Nashville, and it is the opinion of some that there is business enough for two banks among the Negroes of this city and vicinity, and that it would be better if another bank was established. The strongest societies in Tennessee do not deposit in the bank here nor in Memphis, but are doing as the Drivers' Mutual Aid Association: "fattening frogs for snakes." On a whole the entertainment was a grand affair, and a credit to the Association. A DOUBLE FUNERAL The sad deaths of Misses Schuldria and Sarah Halfacre, who lived at No. 922 Overton street, was made doubly sorrowful because they both expired about the same hour, yet each was sick with a different complaint. Arrangements were at once made with Taylor & Co. for a double funeral, both were shrouded alike, both caskets are the same color and trimmed alike. The funeral services were held at Sahal Eli Baptist Church, Rev. Mr. Thompson, officiating.

Net ep nine OUTTING OUT NBGRO PAT- 43 RONAGE. “The announcement comes from North Garolina that Collier's Weekly, through one of its agents, has given specific order that no business shall ‘be taken from Negroes. Likewise, the announcement is heralded broadcast from New York that the Metropolitan Insurance Company has notified its pias to accept no uew business irom Regroes. The report of the actions of Collier's agents is surprising if true, more so than that of the insurance company. The refusal by either con- cern, though, to accept business of Negroes will uot hurt our race, There are thousands of publishers ‘who want our money, and there are some insurance companies so anxious for our patronage that they will not inflict upon us the bumptious white agents. But what is more important, the refusal to accept our patronage by White business concerns makes it bet- ter for our own business men, A HASTY DENIAL. _ It would seem from recent develop- ‘ment sthat the War Department has contracted a case of acute sensitive- ‘ness or that it is endeavoring to exem- one the old adage, “A guilty con- ‘Beience needs no accuser.” Last Sun- ‘day the press dispatches contained the ‘news that the department had ordered all the colored soldiers to the Philip- ‘pine Islands for service. In the same article was a ‘ong interview with a member of the general staf! of the army denying that the order was prej- méicial to the colored troops or that it had been inspired by the Browns- ville affair. The Department's explanation and denial as voiced by the officer briefly stated is this: All the white troops have seen foreign service, but only one regiment of the colored troops has been detailed for such service, the Twenty-fifth Infautry, which ts at the Philippine Islands at present. It ‘was formerly thought that the colored troops were not fitted for duty in the colonies, but the Twenty-fourth is making such an exemplary record the general staff advised that the colored regiments be treated as the whites have heen; that they be required to ac- cept foreign service, The action was not influenced by the Brownsville af- fair nor by the reports being circu- lated as to the conduct of the soldiers at other posts. It is really a promo- tion for the nien, as they wiil receive an increase of 20 per cent in wages and one year wil] count as two years in their service record. Jt seems strange that this explana- ‘tion was necessary on the very day that the order was issued. There could be tio “Objections < jent to assigning tho colored ps to any post or duty where t#o whites had been assigned previousty. But it appears from the action taken at this particular time that the criticism being showered-upon the commander- inchief of the army has caused the troops, to be withdrawn under fire. Then, again, this order has recalled and given added importance to an or- der recently sent that enlisting officers should use every effort to enlist “white” men, It looks as if the de- partment is trying to promote the col- ored troops out of the army. beta teen soared b> oa tert aad According to statistics gathered be one of the’ daily papers of the North, during the year 1906, 73 persons were lynched in the United States, This is an increase of eight victims over 1905. One hundred and thirty-five were lynched in 1901 96 in 1902, 104 in 1993, 87 in 1904, Mississippi leads oll the states in the number of victims, 13 having met death at the hands of the mob. This, however, is 7 less for ‘the state than in 1905, Louisiana had 9; Georgia, 9; Texas, 6; Florida, 6; Alabama, 5; South Carolina, 5; North Carolina, 5; Arkansas, 4; Kentucky, 3; ‘Missouri, 8; Tennessee, 2; Indian Ter- ‘vitory, 1; Maryland, 1; Colorado, 1. Of the number killed three were white and 79 colored, one of the latter being a woman. The most interesting part of the sta- tistics is that which relates to the crimes punished by the mob, The following are the crimes apportioned: Quintuple murder, dual murder, mur- der and robbery, assault and mur- triple criminal assault, miscegenation, improper proposals, petty robbery, carrying a loaded pistol; theft of a yearling calf, disorderly conduct, one victim each; quadruple murder, 4; attempted murder, 11; murder, 15; criminal assault, 18; attempted crimi- nal assault, 19. It is to be noted that persons that were kileld in riots like that of Atlanta are not included in the list. These statistics put at rest the con- tention of President Roosevelt and others that the crime of lynching is most generously proyoked by criminal assault, Less tnan one-fifth of those to meet death at the hand of the mob were alleged to be guilty of the “un- mentionable crime,” aud only about one-fourth had been accused of at- tempting the crime, The sta- tistics show that in some com- munities, owfag to a lax enforee- ment of the law, a Negro may be lynched for any cause which the white man may decide is a capital crime. They further emphasize the fact that with all the machinery of justice in his hands,—the legislative, executive and judicial,—the southern whites, and we say southern whites because lynchings are more general in this section than in others and it is here that the Negro has the least in- fluence in the shaping of public af. fairs, are afraid to trust their own men to dispense that even-handed jus: tice to which every man is entitled. If any section of the country sbould enforce the laws more than another, eat section is the South. ‘We have never been very enthusias- tic as a supporter of the various ex- slaye pension moyements that have been inaugurated whereby the ex- slaves were to recelye a pension frovn the genetal government. But, it does seem that these ex-slaves are as much entitled to a pension as various com- munities of the South which are asking for reimbursement with interest for the damage done by the federal armies during the late Civil War. Towa starts the new year with a new brand of lynching. A white man charged with the murder of his wife and child was taken from the jail and, after a prayer service, was lynched. The victim, who was about 60 years old, had been domented for a nunuber of years, A new brand of lynching but an old method of “casting out the devils.” First pray and then kill! It reminds one of the stories about the Salem witches. ~ Phe Washington Bee has come out Bs @ strong defender of Booker Wash- ington, having devoted almost a whole issue to Tuskegee and its work. Now some of the papers of the coun- try, which have heretofore joined ed- itor Chasc in fighting the Wizard of ‘Tuskegee, want to know how much the yeteran newspaper man. got. If there is anything in it, doubtless they want to be put next. Senator Joe Bailey, the great consti- tutional lawyer from Texas, is not worried about whether Roosevelt yio- lated his constitutional authorities in dismissing “without honor” the bat- talion of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, He is trying to pour oil—no not oil, for the mere mentioning of the word is nauseating to the statesman from Texas—upon the troubled waters. The report comes from Chattanooga that Sheriff Shipp, his deputies and the other men who are charged with contempt by the Supreme Court will soon be arrested. We hope it is true, The guilty persons should be convicted and receive the full penalty provided by the law. The stories coming through the newspapers concerning the crimes of the black regiments show tha’ the art- ist who was located at Mole St. Nich- olas during the Spanish-American skirmish has changed his base of op- erations, The Hon. James K, Vardaman, Goy- ernor of Mississippi, has been accused of graft by one of the state officials. The only thing surprising is that the charge is not worse. The legislators are trying to drive whisky out of the state by legislative enactment. Heretofore they haye used other methods for getting rid of the fire-water. Gov. John I. Cox must think he is a second Theodore Roosevelt, judging by the length of his message. ‘ The Globe hae expanded. How do you like the change? Beit PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES, The pupils of this school spent the holidays pleasantly. Nearly all of them, at one time or another, were present at some little social affair, whick has already been noted in the columns of the Globe. ‘That was a neat and opportune five- minute talk which Prof. Smith gave the pupils on the first day of school in the New Year. According to his comparison, the New Year was to the pupils as a fresh block of marble to the sculptor, As the'sculptor saw an angel in the uncut stone that lay be- fore him, so each pupil ought to see in the New Year a higher and purer ideal and ought to entertain fresh hopes for a better and brighter future. That as the scu!ptor would not touch marble without a definite pian and idea of what he wished to create, so the pupils ought not to enter upon the New Year without meditating upon what they wished to accomplish this year. Their aims should be higher and their efforts more strenuous to succeed than ever before, Mr. Eugene Taylor, who was ab- sent from school several days on ac count of the serious illness of his fa ther, has returned, Miss Maud Webster, a pupil in the 9th-A grade, was married last week to Mr. Herbert Voorhies, of the class of 1904, -_ Mr. Willis Summers and Mr, John Caldwell have returned from Okla homa, where they went to spend the holidays, Examinations occur next week, and there is a feeling of nervousness among the pupils, especiolly. among the Seniors. .

JOHNSON AT CHATTANOOGA, AND MEMBERS OF MOB TO BE ARRESTED. VIGOROUS PROSECUTION OUTLINED. Chattanooga, Tenn., Jan. 7.—(Special.)—The final and most serious step in the contempt proceedings before the United States Supreme Court against Sheriff J. F. Shipp, a number of his deputies and a half score alleged members of the mob that took Ed Johnson, from the county jail on March 19, and hanged him to the Tennessee River bridge, has been taken in motions made by the Attorney General for the arrest of the defendants and for taking the testimony either before the Supreme Court or before a Commissioner appointed for that purpose. The attorneys for the defense announce that they will not resist the motions, and orders for the arrest of the parties accused of contempt are expected at any time. When the cases were first brought the attorneys for Sheriff Shipp and the other defendants set up a plea that the Supreme Court had no jurisdiction, but the decision was rendered to the contrary, and the cases will now be tried on their merits. It is intimated that a Special Commissioner will be sent here to take the testimony, and that the Government will be represented in the hearing by Solicitor General Henry M. Hoyt, who has conducted the case up to this time. The Government has secured a long list of witnesses, which include newspaper men and others who were on the bridge when Johnson was lynched. He was convicted in the Circuit Court here, and his attorneys (white) made no effort to appeal the case. Negro lawyers then took a hand and appealed to the United States Circuit Judge for a habeas corpus, which was denied. An appeal was made to the Supreme Court and granted by justice Harlan. Two days later the action of Justice Harlan was ratified by the court, and that night Johnson was lynched. PRINCE HERRMAN. They renew their spirits and see new beauty in life who attend Prince Herrman's entertainments. Crowded houses continue to greet him and Duke Berryman at the leading churches. On Friday night, Jan. 4, at St. Paul A. M. E. Church, an unusually large crowd greeted them. Among those present were Bishop and Mrs. Evans Tyree, Bishop and Mrs. C. H. Phillips, Dr. W. D. Chappelle and Mrs. Chappelle, Rev. Wm. Flagg, Rev. and Mrs. C. H. Boone, Dr. and Mrs. E. W. S. Hammond and Prof. Chas Stewart (Col. Midnight).

Mr. Patterson represents one of the largest carriage factories in the middle West.

The first Pattersons began as repairers of wagons and buggies and built up a business. The second Pattersons improved upon it and the present generation of Pattersons are proving equally as industrious, if not more progressive, as Mr. Fred Douglass Patterson spends most of his time on the road selling directly to the trade. It is said that he solicited some excellent orders in Nashville. It is learned that some of the professional men placed orders for handsome turnouts and that the two colored livery stables gave large orders for vehicles to be delivered early in the spring. It is pleasing to note that our people are learning fast how to patronize not only home industries, as has long been the plea, but racial industries as they ought to do.

WALDENITES. ¥: A jolly number of young men from Walden University gathered at the home of Miss Carrie L. Rwing, of Thir- teenth avenue, South, Jan. 1, '07, and spent a pleasant evening. Dancing and card playing were the leading fea- tures of the evening. They were ‘served with a light collation. Those present were Misses Carrie Richard- son, Beatrice Vaughn, Fannie Mai Rhodes, Susie L, Dobson, Carrie Ew- ing, Messrs, Robt. Dill, Harry Myall, Bordinghammer, Van Watson, Lucian Morow, Dr. Joseph English and Prof. Robert Dobson. They all departed at 11:45. abe DEATH OF MR. KENNARD, Marshall Kennard, a much esteemed citizen, died Jam, 7, 1907, at the age of 37, His illnes was ‘extremely short, being only of a few hours, as this sudden death was the sequence of an operation performed upon his left hand. He rallied nicely from the ef- fects of the anaesthetic and chatted continuously with his devoted wife till within five minutes of leaving, when he closed his eyes and without a mur- mur or ‘struggle was numbered with the beyond. It came as a shock not soon to be eliminated to a myriad of friends who hastened to view him to be convinced of its certainty and then, surrounding his grief-stricken widow, they gave sympathy unbounded. Mar- ‘shall Kennard possessed many beauti- ful traits of character, and being of a jolly temperament and extremely po- lite, was easily the favorite of all with whom he came in contact. He was loved by all who. knew him re- gardless of color. Many persons will recall the joyous moments afforded them whenever he presided at an in- strument and remember how insatia- bly they have listened to his rich and voluminous voice. Ewidencing such a love for music as he did, his many mu- sic loving friends and associates flocked around him that they might be numbered with those who ever re- membered and loved him. The num- bers rendered by Messrs. Teasley, Samuel Moore, Ellis McNairy and Miss Georgia Hooper were beautiful and ap- propriate as were the many flower de- signs sent him. He was a member of the Friendship Lodge, Knights of Pythias, whose every movement from the time of his death to the time of his interment say much for the Pyth- ians. For though the weather was in- clement, they turned out as a whole to do him honor, He leaves behind a devoted and affectionate wife, kind mother and many ‘friends whom we commend to Him who doeth all things well, DEATHS.

SPENCER, Gov), gr . -,- Washington, D,0.- A SOLDIER'S OPINION ie ihe Recent Excitement at Browns. [ ville, Texas, Mr, Editor: One full grown’ wolf will stampede 10,000 sheep, while if the same herd should have come in contact with the wolf while it was in its infancy they would have disdainfully trampled it under their feet. Such seems to have been the situa- tion at Brownsville, Texas, during the recent oxeitement, which resulted in the killing of one white man, and the wounding of another which was sup- posed to have been done by some un- known member of the 25th infantry, stationed at Fort Brown, Texas, I have before me clippings of the San Antonio Daily Express, from the 15th to the 20th of August, inclusive, al of which contain appeals from the citizens of Brownsville, to everybody, from the president of the United States to the town “cop,” saying: “Our women and childrei are terrorized, and our men in constant alarm and fearfulness; please remove Negro troops and replace them by white troops; send state troops; do some- thing right away, for we are scared to death,” or words to that effect. Now, Mr. Editor, no one not a true hearted American colored soldier can realize the situation of affairs at Brownsville. The writer was stationed down there about ten months in 1899, and is well acquainted with the senti ment of its people, ‘The majority of the inhabitants of that section, are a class that think a colored man fs not good enough tc wear the uniform of a United States soldier<yea, not good enough even te wear the skin of a dog. ‘They sneer at a colored soldier on the sidewalk and bar him from thelt saloons, resorts, and places of amuse ment, Why, when I was dowu there, on Sunday I thought I would go down t Point Isabella, on the Bay, to spent the day. So in company with a young lady I went down to the depot and pur chased two tickets (taking advantag jot the exeurston. rates then offered) boarded the train (which was only lit ile better than walking), went into th ear and took a seat. When the trait started, one of the so-called “Texa; Rangers” came up to me and told m J was in the wrong place, I said, “No NASHVITTY GLORE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1907.%; T guess not; I just read your law, and it says the Negro and white passen- gers will not ride in the same coach except on excursions.” He replied, “Don’t make any difference, you get out of here; you are too smart any way; I will break this gun over your head if you say much,” the meantime menacing me with a six-shooter, of the most improved villianous pattern and caliber, Well I obeyed his orders be- cause I was alone and could not help myself, I knew that I was being treat- ed wrong, but he held a “Royal flush,” and I only had a “four-card bob,” and 1 knew I could not “bluff” him, A colored man who has the dispost- tion of a toad: frog (I mean one who can stand to be beaten on the back and puff up and take it), is all right; [ne ean stay in that country. But those | Who feel hot biood running through their veins, and who are proudly and creditably wearing the uniform of a United States soldier; standing ready to protect and defend the American flag, against any enemy whomsoever to obey the orders of the president o' the United States and the orders of the officer appointed over them (whict they have always done with pride an¢ honor), cannot stay down thete ir peace with honor, The people do no’ want them either because they wil probably not be able to carry out thei, | favorite sport, hanging a colored maz |to a limb, or tarring and feathering | him and burning him at the stake with | out trial, while the colored soldiers ar stationed there. | The majority of the old-settlers {1 southwest Texas are bandits, origina | members of the Ku-Klux-Klan, murder jers and thieves, who have sneaket }down in that almost uncivilized par of the United States in the early day: and mixed up with the Mexicans in or '| der to escape the eagle talons of a pur suing and outraged justice.

BASE BALL OUTLOOK FOR 1907. ‘The football fever having about died away, and Santa Claus having made a clean sweep, the lovers of outdoor Sport can find ‘time now to sit by-a warm fire, perchance the coal train comes in on time, and grow reminis- cent over past battles and discuss the approaching season, What is engaging the attention of the public most now is the prospects in the baseball world. The fans know that it takes time to arrange. for baseball games as well as for other athletic sports and they are asking on every hand what efforts, if any, are being put forth to furnish the patrons the class of baseball they want to spend their money to see, True, John- ny Dobbs is hustling, but Dobbs is a white man, and as is the case every year before the season approaches a great deal of speculation is indulged in, and never a winter passes that some one seeking a little cheap no- toriety does not bob up with some thing concerning a new park for the league team, and they as a rule are so-hard pressed for gray matter from which to condense thoughts that they are compelled to draw on their “nig- gerphobia.” Some little 2x4 has sug- gested that the Nashville league have a new park and gives as his reason for such a need that the present site is surrounded with Negroes, when, as is well known, the present site is bounded on the North by Haury’s sa- loon, on the east by Howe's ice fac- tory, and on tho south by Harriman’s Nashville Terminals and the spring house, and on the west by nothing but a bottom full of weeds and gnats. But this cheap stuff issued by the would-bes should put the Negroes to thinking, . For years they have beer paying into the coffers of the owners of the sinkhole known as Athletic Park their hard-earned money, and annual- ly they are told that they are not wanted. They rust not ‘even . give their lungs too much exercise, it makes no difference what happens, unless Bill Bohannon or wee Jansing makes a sensational stunt. But if the Hon. Napier or the Rev, Griggs, or forsocth the Dr. Washington says something praiseworhy concerning the ability of the Negro as an athlete or a man they threaten to close the gates of the sacred swamp against the sons of Ham. Well) why shouldn't they? The |germ-producing locality belongs to them. A cure for ail these ills is for the Negroes to secure a park of ‘heir own and on high ground that does not re- quire a fire to ve built to dry out. It would be a paying investment, Then after the park is fitted up, put a hus- tling man to work to secure a ball team that would be able to cope with other teams throughout he country. Begin now so as to be ready when the Season opens. The fans will pay for the right kind of ball playing. GANS-BRITT. Jimmy Britt, the pride of the Pacif- ie slope, will have a chance to again retrieve his lost honors. On Mareh 17, at Taponah, Nev., he will be pitted against Joe Gans, the champion light- weight of the world. The Baltimore fighter seems io be at his best now and all followers of the ring believe he will be able to defend his -title against Britt. The last time these men met Britt saved himself from a clean knockout by fouling Gans when the champion had him at the last stage of endurance, Although many strange things have happened in the fistic arena the opinion is that if Gans fights he will win. - abs ED. MARSHALL MAKES ALL- WESTERN ELEVEN. Ed. Marshall, the big Minnesota end, could not be denied a place on the all-western football eleven for 1906, al- though accused of being a dirty play- er. Perhaps he would not have made the first team at Minnesota had he not contained some of the roughness that is characteristic of all elevens from Gopher State university. — Marshall, despite this charge, was entitled to a place on the All-American eleven, and in 1905 and 1906 was given a place on the second team by Walter Camp, who seems to be prejudiced to all sections except the Hast. Not a single man in the South was good enough for a place, although Vanderbilt defeated the Indians 4 tof, Mrs. Adelia Mills, the popular Jef- ferson street grocer, 1s doing a thriy- ing business.
