IS ESSENTIAL TO THE SUCCESS OF THE PROFESSION SAYS DR. C. A. TERRELL. HIS TRIBUTE TO THE MEHARRY BROTHERS AND DR. HUBBARD. DEAN OF MEHARRY, WAS FITTINGLY APPROPRIATE. (An address delivered by Dr. C. A. Terrell, of Memphis, Tenn., before the Alumni Association of Meharry Medical College, Nashville, Tenn., Friday, March 29., 1907.) Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Meharry Alumni Association: Words are inadequate in expressing my appreciation to you for the honor of appearing before you upon this occasion. The tribute of words that I gladly bring, and that you may take as expressing the sentiments of your brethren at large, necessarily begins with congratulations that your association is composed of men and women who were ushered into this world just a few days prior to, or shortly after the abolition of slavery, which was brought about by Christian men and women who had the spirit of the Great Physician within their hearts, and this taught them, that it was a great curse to allow human beings, though they be Negroes, to remain in servitude. But congratulations must be mingled with praise of the band of noble men, the Meharry Brothers, who materially assisted in making this gathering possible. The Meharry Boys furnished the money, but who had the manhood and broad heart enough to take it and convert it into Medical, Surgical, Pharmaceutical and Dental brains? The answer is now an easy one, our beloved dean, Dr. G. W. Hubbard, who has spent the greater part of his life in educating Negro men and women as physicians, surgeons, dentists, pharmacists and, last but not least, trained nurses to minister to the urgent needs of our race. How well we have done, this can easily be shown by the records of our large cities wherein are found a great number of our people. In the city of Memphis, having a population of two hundred thousands, fifty per cent being Negroes, the death rate ten years ago was three times as great as that of the white race, during this period the increase of Negro physicians has been from four to twenty-four, and the death rate has decreased in proportion to the increase of the presence of the Negro physicians; so that now, the weekly per cent of death rate is about equally divided among both races. If we can achieve so much without being well organized, and having no hospital advantages, what may be expected of us when we will have succeeded in organizing Negro medical societies and building hospitals throughout the south-land, where the doors of such needful help are closed against us? The medical society is designed, (1) to lay a foundation for that unanimity and friendship, which is essential to the dignity and usefulness of the professional. (2) That in all cases where counsel is requisite they will assist each other without reserve. (3) That they will communicate their observations on the air, seasons, and climate with such discoveries as they may make in physics, surgery, botany or chemistry; and deliver faithful histories of the various diseases incident to the inhabitants of this country, with the mode of treatment and results. With such objects in view we can dily see the educational value of medical society. There are many embs and difficulties in the educa-tion more difficult than the que- the general practitioner. Over we have some control, over or none. The university and hard make it certain that the a minimum at least of pro-knowledge, but who can be of the state of that knowledge her in five or ten years from of his graduation? The spee-y be trusted to take care of the conditions of his exis- mand that he shall be abreast times, but the family doctor, ate in the great army, the es-tactor in the battle should be nurtured by the schools and guarded by the public. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1907. M. CHRISTIE Humanly speaking with him are the issues of life and death, since upon him fall the previous responsibility in those terrible emergencies which bring darkness and despair to so many households. No class of men need to call to mind more often the wise comment of Plato; that "education is a life long business." The difficulties are partly adherent to the subject, partly have to do with the individual and his weakness. The problems of disease are more difficult than any others with which the trained mind has to grape, the conditions in any given case may be unlike those in any other, each case indeed may have its own problem. Law constantly looking back, has its forms and procedures, its precedents and practices. Once grasped the certainties of divinity make its study a delight and its practice a past-time; but who can tell of the uncertainties of medicine as an art? The science upon which it is based is accurate and definite enough; the physics of a man's circulation are the physics of the water works of the town in which he lives, but once out of gear you can not apply the same rule for the repair of the one as of the other. Variability is the law of life and as no two faces are the same, so no two bodies are alike, and no two individuals react alike, and behave alike, under the abnormal conditions which we know as disease. This is the fundamental difficulty in the education of the physician, and one which he may never grasp, or he takes it so tenderly that it hurts instead of boldly accepting the axiom of Bishop Butler, more true of medicine than any other profession, "Probility is the guide of life." Surrounded by people who demand certainty and not philosopher enough to agree with Locke that "Probility supplies the defect of our knowledge and guides us when that fails, and is always conversant about things of which we have no certainty." Listen to the appropriate comments of the father of medicine, who twenty-five centuries ago had not only grasped the fundamental conception of our art as one based on observation, but had labored also through a long life to give to the profession which he loved the saving health-of science; listen. I say, to words of his famous aphorism: "Experience is fallacious and judgment difficult." But the more serious problem relates to the education of the practitioner after he has left the schools. The foundation may not have been laid upon which to erect an intellectual structure and too often the man starts with a total misconception of the prelonged struggle necessary to keep the education he has, to say nothing of bettering the instructions of the schools. As the practice of medicine is not a business, and can never be one, the education of the heart, the moral side of man, must keep pace with the education of the head. Our fellow creatures can not be dealt with as men in corn and coal; the human heart by which we live must control our professional relations; after all the personal equation has most to do with our success of failure in medicine, and in the trials of life the fire which strengthens and tempers the metal of one may soften and ruin the other. For better or worse there are few occupations of a more satisfying character than the practice of medicine, if a man can but once bring to it the philosophy of honest work, the philosophy which insists that we are here, not to get all we can out of life about us, but to see how much we can add to it. The discontent and grumblings which one hears have their source in the man more often than in his environment. In the nature of the material in which we labor and of which, by the way, we are pertakers, there is much that could be improved, but we accept men as the Lord made them and not expect too much. But let me say this of the public, it is rarely responsible for the failures in the profession. Occasionally a man of superlative merit is neglected, but it is because he lacks that most essential gift, the knowledge how to use his gifts. The failure in 99 per cent of the cases is in the man himself, he has not started right, the poor chap has not had the choice of his parents or his education has been faulty, or he has fallen away to the worship of strange gods—Baal or, worse still, Bacchus. But after all the killing vice of the young doctor is intellectual laziness; he may have worked hard at college but the years of probation have been his ruin. Without specific subjects upon which to work he gets the newspaper or the novel habit and flitters his energies upon useless literature. There is no greater test of a man's strength than to make him "mark time" in the stand and wait years. Habits of systematic reading are rare and are becoming more rare, and five or ten years from his license, as practice begins to grow, may find the young doctor knowing less than he did when he started and without a fixed educational purpose in life. Now here is where the medical society may step in and prove his salvation. The doctor's post graduate education comes from patients, from books and journals, and from societies which should be supplemented every five or six years by a return, to a post graduate school to get rid of an almost inevitable sloveniness in methods of work. We should strive in our societies to lay a foundation for unity and friendship, which is essential to the dignity and usefulness of the profession. Yes, unity and friendship. How we all long for them! but how difficult to attain. Strife seems rather to be the very life of the practitioner, whose warfare is incessant against disease, and against ignorance and prejudice, and sad to have to admit, he too often lets his angry passions rise against his professional brother. The quarrels of doctors make a pretty chapter in the history of medicine. When science has fully leavened the dough of homoeopathy the great breach of our day will be healed. But in too many towns and smaller communities miserable factions prevail and bickering and jealousies mar the dignity and usefulness of the profession. So far as my observation goes, the fault lies with the older men, and right here, my professional brethren, is the crying need of medical, dental, pharmaceutical and nurse training societies to cement and hold us together, for in union there is great strength. The meeting is a friendly, social way to lead to a free and open discussion of differences in a spirit that refuses to recognize differences of opinion on the nonessentials of life as the cause of personal animosity or ill feeling. An attitude of mind habitually friendly, more particularly to the young man, even though you feel him to be the David to whom your kingdom may fall, a little of the old fashion courtesy which makes a man shrink from wounding the feeling of a brother practitioner, in honor preferring one another, with such a spirit abroad in the society and among its older men; there is no reason for any hatred, malace or any uncharitableness. It is the confounded tales of patients that so often set us by the ears, but if a man makes it a rule never under any circumstances to believe a story told by a patient to the detriment of a fellow practitioner, even if he knows it to be true; though the measure he metes may not be measured to him again, he will have the satisfaction of knowing that he has closed the ears of his soul to 99 lies, and the hundredth truth will not hurt him. Most of the quarrels of doctors are about non-essentials, miserable trifles and annoyances the pinprick of practice, which would some times try the patience of Job, but the good fellowship and friendly intercourse of the medical society should reduce those to a minimum. The well conducted medical society should represent a clearing house, in which every physician of the district would receive his intellectual rating, and in which he could find out his professional assets, and liabilities. We doctors do not take stock often enough, and are very apt to carry on our shelves stale, out of date goods. The society helps to keep a man up to the times, and enables him to refurnish his mental show with the latest wares. Rightly used it may be a touch-stone to which he can bring his experiences to the test and save him from following in the rut of a few sequences. It keeps his mind open, and receptive and counteracts that tendenoy to premature senility, which is apt to overtake a man who lives in a routine. After receiving our medical education in the different colleges of the country, whose doors are not closed in our faces, and every month or two we strengthen our medical assets, by meeting together and exchanging ideas and thoughts, we at last find ourselves handicapped; for the majority of the hospitals in the Southland are either closed to us or our patients and most assuredly to our nurses. Can it then be said that we do not need hospitals? As a race we are well supplied with churches, and partly so with schools, but we are sadly in need of modern up to date hospitals, wherein we can give our patients the best surgical, to say nothing about the medical treatment that each individual case may demand. This is not the only reasons why we should build hospitals, and help those that are already struggling for existence. It opens the way for the women of our race to become trained nurses, and earn a splendid living in having a vocation in which each must lead a busy, useful and happy life, more you cannot expect, a great blessing, the world cannot bestow. Busy you will certainly be, as the demand is great both in private and public for women of your training; useful your lives must be, as you will care for those who cannot care for themselves, and who need about them, in the day of tribulation, gentle hands and tender hearts.

IT WAS A BRILLIANT AND INSPIRING OCCASION. The thirty-first annual commencement exercises of Mehary Medical College were held at the Ryman Auditorium last Friday night March 29. The occasion was one long to be remembered in Nashville. It marked an epoch in history, making, so far as the medical, dental and pharmaceutical departments of this University are concerned, a lasting impression upon all. There went out into the world ninety-six graduates, who have labored for the past three and four years to win the diplomas which were presented to them on Friday night. The Processional March "Canabas" by R. H. Hall, was played by the University orchestra. Promptly at 7:30 p.m. the long line of graduates filed down the center aisle of the auditorium, made a circle in front of the stage, turned to the left and took their seats on the platform, arranged just behind the President, Dean and speaker for the occasion. A Chorus, "There is Joy" from the "Prodigal Son" (Sullivan) was sung by the Choral Society, before an audience that completely filled the spacious auditorium. Dr. George W. Hubbard, Dean and founder of this great institution, called the house to order and in a few modest words invited the audience to stand while Dr. R. H. Boyd offered prayer, which he did In that earnest, simple form of speech which is so characteristic of him. Chorus with solo, "The Miller's Wooing" (Faning) by the Choral Society. Mr. Landry, Mr. Walker and Miss Roberts were heartily applauded. So prolonged was the encore that they were forced to render another selection. Dr. Hubbard then arose and said, "We are about to present to you to-night the largest medical class ever turned out from Meharry Medical College. The class numbers about one hundred. They come from nearly every state in the Union, from British Honduras, which is in Central America, West Indies and other points. This will make the total number sent out into the professional world from Meharry about one thousand. It is with pleasure that we make the statement to-night, that Meharry has furnished to the colored people a majority of all the medical graduates turned out from the schools for the race. This class promises greater achievements than any of its predecessors." These remarks were received with tremenous applause from the audience. The salutatory by C. R. Yerwood, of Texas, on the "Moral Duty of the Physical," was timely, instructive and well rendered. He covered a scope along moral lines, which to his class, as well as those in the audience, should be followed verbatim. It was an earnest appeal for the moral uplifting of the medical profession, showing the many high and worthy duties to be performed in this work. The pharmaceutical valedictory was by W. T. Durroh, of Tennessee, on "Pharmacy as Related to Medicine." He showed in a well prepared address the rapid strides made by the pharmaceutical graduates and the various associations organized in recent years, and the assistance they had been to the druggists and the doctors. He made a passionate appeal to his class and his hearers for renewed ambition. "The Drum" by S. Archer Gibson, was rendered by the Glee Club, which elicited an encore from the vast crowd. Then G. D. Smith, of South Carolina, the dental valedictorian, discussed "Dentistry in the Field With Medicine." Hardly had he begun his mastery address before the audience was with him in seeing the advantages to be derived from competent dentists. So plain did he make his argument that at the conclusion of each sentence, he grew more enthused, taking on more eloquence as he proceeded. The last address on behalf of the class was delivered by W.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. APRIL 5. 1907. A. M., from Georgia. He was the medical valedictorian and took for his subject "The Evolution of the Physician." Such eloquence, such oratory, so much sincere and profound declarations, has not been heard at the commencement exercises in the history of the school. He was easily the star of the occasion. He got out from the archives of ancient history the records of the pioneers in medicine. He showed by his beautiful and masterful illustrations how the physician had evolved from the mere "medicine man" to the latest and most scientific stages, such as exist to-day. He captivated his audience, and more than once the audience interrupted him with a vigorous applause. Mr. Bryan was stern and dispassionate in his delivery. In concluding he paid a high tribute to the class, the faculty and last, but not least, to the citizens of Nashville. The chorus, "Thou, O Lord, Art Our Father" (Sullivan) sung by the Choral Society and played by the orchestra, was one of the most beautiful selections of the evening. At the conclusion of this, Dean Hubbard announced that Dr. Kuhmler, President of Walden University, would award the diplomas. Dr. Kuhmler then presented the medical department with seventy-five, the dental with eleven, the pharmaceutical with eight and the nurse training with two diplomas. He was assisted by Drs. R. R. Boyd, F. A. Stewart and Dean Hubbard. Just at this point the following were awarded medals and prizes. R. E. Fulllove, of Mississippi, W. A. Lewis, of Tennessee, E. B. Wallace, of Georgia, J. L. Pickens, of Alabama, W. H. Lynch, of West Indies, N. T. Walis, of Arkansas, and N. T. Cottenn, of Colorado. Dr. Hubbard announced that there were a large number of presents but they would not be given out until after the program was concluded, but he had a few special offerings which were sent by letter to him and which he wished to hand out. C. H. Wheeler, of Mississippi, received a check for $250.00 from his mother. Mr. Tucker, of British Honduras, received a check for $200.00 from his father. Mr. Clyde W. Lee, also from Mississippi, received a check for $300.00. A check for $500.00 was presented to W. S. Martin, of Memphis, Tenn., from relatives. Dr. Hubbard then introduced the speaker for the occasion. On the introduction of "The Wizard of Tuskegee," he said, "We feel honored tonight to have with us Dr. Booker T. Washington, who has kindly consented to deliver an address to our graduating class. Dr. Washington's school is the best known in the South, and better known than any of the leading schools of the North. His reputation as an educator is not confined to any country. It is an international one. Dr. Washington will speak to you." A loud demonstration by the audience was indulged in. Mr. Washington then spoke in that cool, unequivocal manner which is so characteristic of him. His subject, "The individual, not the race problem," was timely, logical and very appropriate for the occasion. It was mingled with humor and good advice to the graduates. Presents and prizes were then presented to the large class. Over $1,250 in cash was recorded. Some very prominent visitors were noted on the platform, together with the Alumni Association of the Meharry Medical College. The music, rendered by the orchestra under the direction of Miss Braden, was superb. The ushers were very competent. They saw to it that the large audience was comfortably seated and that no one was allowed to find a seat without their aid. E. T. Belsaw was chief usher, assisted by E. L. Toomer, O. U. Brown, H. T. Boulding, O. H. Bassett J. F. Robinson, I. A. White, Napier Bass, Samuel J. McLemore, J. B. Russell, E. H. Martin, O. N. Goins, R. H. Green, S. F. Milton, C. A. Wilhite, E. W. Benton, J. L.

The names of the candidates for graduation of the June division of the Senior Class have been sent to the office of the Superintendent. This division numbers thirteen, some would say a very unlucky number, five boys and eight girls. The members themselves while on other subjects perfectly sane, are a little sorry that their number is not different. The question uppermost in their minds now is "who will fail?" The class roll follows below: Willie B. Davis, Crawford C. Harwell, Percy W. Nelson, Avery N. Peyton, Ira B. Scott, Emma T. Cheairs, Willie T. Cockrill, Sallie I. Duvall, Willie L. Foster, Everill M. Frazier, Martha B. King, Hattle E. Mullein, Nina E. Murrell. Mr. C. B. Manning of Southern Pines, N. C., visited the school and made an address. The students pronounced it one of the best ever delivered to the school. Dr. J. D. Lester, accompanied by Dr. M. E. Stevens, of Texarkana, Ark., honored the school with a visit. Your reporter learned that Dr. Stevens is one of the wealthiest Negro physicians in the South. Rev. G. L. Jackson also called to make some inquiries about his son. The base ball game between Eighth and Ninth Grades and between Eighth Grade and Seniors resulted in a victory both times for the Eighth Grade. In the first game the score stood 6 to 22, and in the second game 6 to 12. The Grammar Schools feels avenged for some of the large talk indulged in by the High School pupils. Prof. F. G. Smith paid a flying trip to Memphis Saturday in the interest of the Jamestown Exposition, where he secured some nice exhibits. BASS-HAYNES. Mr. James Bass of this city and Miss Winnie Haynes of Murfreesboro were quietly married last Sunday evening, March 24, at the residence of the groom's sister, Mrs. Berry Robertson, on Tremont avenue, Rev. Jack Harding performed the ceremony. Only relatives and a few friends were present. String music prevailed throughout the evening. EMBROIDERY CLUB. The Ladies' Embroidery Club met Monday at the residence of Mrs. W. M. Rucker, of 1413 Hynes street. Miss Lillie B. Rucker received and Mrs. F. A. Turner presided at the piano.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 9, 1991. GREAT EVENT AT WALDEN. The banquet given in honor of the Senior classes of Meharry medical, dental and pharmaceutical departments by Dr. and Mrs. G. W. Hubbard, was one of the greatest events in the history of the University. The guests were received in the spacious Auditorium by Misses Alexander and Roberts and introduced to the host and hostess, Dr. and Mrs. Hubbard, who received them on the rostrum, which was beautifully decorated with palms, ferns and cut flowers, and occasionally soft music added to the charm of the evening. The guests which included members of both faculties began to arrive at an early hour and there was ample time for renewal of acquaintances and for the social intercourse. Seldom, if ever, has there been such a gathering of representative and professional people in the city. After an hour or more of social greetings the guests were shown to the spacious banquet hall by Misses Moore and Pierce, where they were cordially welcomed by Mr. S. J. McLemore. The tables were beautifully decorated with smilax, asparagus, ferns, Jackson vines, and many bouquets of red carnations, the college colors being carried out in the decorations. The tables were beautifully illuminated with silver candelabras, with cut silver shades over crimson and black covering. The arrangement of the tables was the occasion of much surprise, the center being in the form of a St. George's cross. The menu was elaborately served in five courses to two hundred and thirty-five guests as if by magic by Mr. McLemore and his able assistants. BRENTWOOD NOTES The Magnolia Sewing Circle met at the residence of Mrs. Rains on Monday.

The House Educational Committee met this morning and heard arguments in favor of the bill appropriating $10,000 for the Roger Williams University. Dr. R. H. Boyd, of the National Baptist Publishing Board, addressed the committee at the suggestion of Representative Peay, Chairman of the committee. Dr. Boyd stated that his first reason for asking for the appropriation was that Roger Williams University, a school for colored youth, was destroyed by fire and the society having charge of the estate sold it for a settlement as it was in an advantageous section of the city, situated between Vanderbilt and Belmont Colleges. Second, the colored people are entitled to this appropriation for the reason that 25 per cent of the population of Tenes see are Negroes, and that the Legislature had already appropriated $400,000 for the benefit of the 75 per cent of whites. Third: Tennessee is about the only State that has not a State school for colored youth. Dr. Boyd said that as the colored people are taxpayers they are justly entitled to a pro rata of the appropriation for educational purposes. He also said that he did not think that this Legislature could afford to adjourn without making some provision for the education of colored youth of the State. The bill providing for the appropriation will be rerafted so far as to make the university a state institution, when further consideration will be had of the measure. THE TWENTIETH CENTURY WHIST CLUB The Twentieth Century Whist Club was delightfully entertained last Thursday evening, March 28, at the home of Miss John D.

An enjoyable egg hunt was had by the Verdi Kindergarten last Saturday afternoon on the grounds of the Verdi School of Music at No. 448 Eighth avenue, North. The children and also those of mature years who witnessed the sport, were well pleased with the afternoon's entertainment. Addresses were made by several gentlemen all of whom praised the work being done by the instructors of the Kindergarten and emphasized the fact that it should be encouraged and supported by our citizens. On Monday the concert took place at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, when the following programme was rendered: Processional March ..... "Easter Arms"—March and drill .....

Mr. and Mrs. George R. White entertained at their residence, 914 Fourteenth avenue, North, last Wednesday evening, in honor of their sister, Miss Emma L. Stone, who graduated from the Meharry Pharmaceutical College last Friday. Quite a large number of the schoolmates of Miss Stone and friends from the city were present and joined in the festivities of the occasion. The ladies, all of whom were handsomely gowned, furnished a pleasing sight as they glided through the parlors to the entrancing music paying homage as it were to Terpsichore. A delightful lunch consisting of three courses was served. SLOWLY CONVALESCING. Misses M. Belle Scales and Eva Green, the two ladies who received a severe shock on a street car in the transfer station, Wednesday morning, March 27, are still at Wilson's Infirmary. A Globe reporter called Wednesday evening and was informed by the nurse that it was not at that time known definitely when they would be able to be removed to their homes. They have been in bed ever since the accident occurred. Scores of friends have manifested sympathy and interest in their speedy recovery by making frequent calls and regular inquiries. Tokens were also made in the form of boquets and delicacies that make a sick room more cheerful. IN THE INTEREST OF ROGER WILLIAMS. A committee of citizens appeared before the educational committee of the state legislature on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings respectively, in behalf of the bill now pending before the state legislature to appropriate $10,000 to assist in the rebuilding of Roger Williams University or some department that would add to Negro education and give some appropriation from the state treasury to assist in this neglected duty of the state. The citizens' committee on Tuesday morning was headed by Rev. Wm. Haynes, who is the president of the Baptist State Convention. Rev. J. L. Harding, Rev. E. M. Lawrence and Henry A. Boyd constituted the committee, while Dr. R. H. Boyd had been invited to accompany them. After a brief consultation with Mr. Ben Carr in the corridor of the capitol the committee was ushered into the committee room. Mr. Haynes who had been working in the interest of education in the city since last summer, had been uniring in his efforts in trying to raise the amount of money necessary to insure the re-establishment or the rebuilding of the school that was at one time located on Hillsboro Pike. The committee in session it seems is not so favorable to allowing the donation to the schools. Mr. Henry A. Boyd took the opportunity to introduce at this point, Dr. R. H. Boyd and it was agreed that on Wednesday morning he would appear before the committee. They had agreed to listen to him. On Wednesday morning as per agreement, an increased attendance was present, all eager to hear. Promptly at 9 o'clock the chairman of the committee announced that he would hear Dr. Boyd, who on behalf of the citizens of Nashville, made a strong, logical and forcible appeal to the state legislature for some donation to the Negro constituents and their children. He spoke fully an hour. His address received marked attention. It was easily seen at the conclusion of his address, a recommendation was probable, and would have been made had the local committee been able to agree upon the instructions received from the members of the legislature. It is learned that Tennessee has made no appropriation whatever for the education of Negro youths outside of the regular public school funds. Notwithstanding about $410,000 has been appropriated to white universities and normal schools in the state in the past legislature as follows: $250,000 for the Peabody Normal. $100,000 for the University of Tennessee and $60,000 for the West Tennessee Normal, which brings the grand total up to $410,000, and which does not include the minor appropriations to various state institutions, where Negroes are not allowed to attend. A strong appeal was made to the committee on education who has charge of these bills, but a Globe representative learned that aside from the recommendation of a bill in the senate now purported to have passed, which intends to restore the scholarship taken away two years ago, nothing has been done. The scholarship question has yet to pass the House of Representatives. Just what steps the citizens' committee will take now towards securing the much needed appropriation to encourage literary and industrial training, has not as yet been definitely decided upon. It is believed, however, that before the legislature adjourns for the present session, some important steps will be taken, and an agreement reached that will give Tennessee a Negro state school—one that the state ought to support, and one that would do credit to the Negro population numbered in its borders. TWO ARRESTS. Arthur Gurley was arrested last week on a charge of house breaking and larceny. Tuesday night the police arrested John Mitchell, who is supposed to be the partner of Gurley, and nine charges of housebreaking and larceny are placed against his name. A Globe man who saw the articles removed from their homes states that there was plunder enough consisting of flour, butter, sugar, lard and canned goods to start a good grocery. It is said that the things were stolen from the kitchens of residences at West End. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE ON WHARF AVENUE. The beautiful home of Rev. Thomas Johnson on Wharf avenue was completely destroyed by fire last Sunday night. Rev. Mr. Johnson is the pastor of Clark Memorial Chapel and was attending to his pastoral duties when the conflagration took place. DEATH OF WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN. Word has been received in the city announcing the death at Jacksonville, Fla., last week of William Jennings Bryan, formerly of Charleston, S. C. The late Mr. Bryan was a graduate of Fisk, having finished the college course about four years ago. At the close of his school career he went in business at Jacksonville, being later married to Miss Alice Priestly of Albany, Ga., who is also a graduate of Fisk. The deceased had a host of friends in the city who were shocked to hear the sad news. IN CHANCERY AT NASHVILLE. State of Tennessee. Office Clerk and Master Chancery Court, Nashville: April 3. 1907 H.

TWO NOTABLE ADDRESSES. Dr. Booker T. Washington, than whom there is no better known Negro in the United States, delivered two notable addresses in this city last Friday. In the first, before the students of Vanderbilt University and some of the white ministers of the city, he spoke of how the white man can help the Negro. In the second, before the graduating classes of the Meharry Colleges, he addressed himself to the problems that confront the Negro. In the speech before the whites, Mr. Washington told some plain truths which may be epitomized in the closing paragraph of his address: "Let each individual as often as possible put his hand upon his heart, and with an earnest prayer, ask his Maker how, if he were placed in the position of the Negro, he would like to be treated, and when that question has been prayerfully and conscientiously answered, in a large degree our problem will have been solved." In his address before the colored people at the Ryman Auditorium, Dr. Washington dwelt with much emphasis upon the problems that confront us as a race. As in previous addresses, he insisted that the greatest problem before us is one of construction. And in this connection he paid a high compliment to a citizen of Nashville, who without arguing the abstract theory as whether or not the Negro could establish and conduct a publishing house, had gone ahead and built one which stands as a monument of the inherent possibilities of the race. The race press, the magnetic Dr. Washington says, is all wrong. It devotes more space to the publishing of an account of the refusal of a hamsandwich to a man than it does to the establishment of a bank. Evidently the good Doctor reads only a few of the race journals, or else he would not make the statement. Perhaps his is one of those "families which refuse to let colored newspapers come into the house because they give to the children the idea that ours is a sick race." Dr. Washington, however, is undoubtedly right when he says that the greatest problem before the race at the present is one of construction. It has been a source of regrets to those who have at heart the best interests of the Negro that in elections, upon moral questions like that of the abolition of the saloons, a majority of our race is usually lined up on the side of the whiskey clement. In the election of Knoxville the only wards to give a majority for the retention of ING, Supt. Mrs. Samuel TO THE PUBLIC. A POLITICAL TRICK. the saloons were those in which the Negroes predominate. In Clarksville though, where the vote of the city is almost equally divided between the white and black, we thought we had seen a ray of hope, for it was due to the votes of the blacks that the antisaloon element won. This vote of the colored citizens of Clarksville was gratifying to those of the race who are acquainted with the baleful effects of whiskey upon the workingmen. But it now appears from the antics of the representative of Montgomery County in the lower house of the legislature, Speaker Cunningham, of Clarksville, that the colored citizen was handed a lemon when he voted to abolish the charter of the city. As we have stated above, the population of Clarksville is almost evenly divided between the two races, but the very best relations exist. One of the wards has constantly returned a man of our race to the city council. This seemed to satisfy both races. So it appears that when the campaign for the abolition of the charter of the city was on, and Speaker Cunningham had refused to be bound by any election in which all the qualified voters were not given a chance to register their opinions, the anti-saloon forces, to secure the Negro vote, promised that in the event they were successful at the polls, the Negroes need have no fear that any change would be made in the city charter that would prevent them from being represented in the city government. But now that the Negro vote has made it possible for Clarksville to have a new charter in accordance with the provisions of the Pendleton Bill, Speaker Cunningham has asked that the charter be so amended as to have the councilmen elected from the city at large. The avowed purpose of his amendment is to prevent the election of a colored man as alderman. Speaker Cunningham, as has been pointed out by the element of Clarksville of which the Mayor and the leading paper of the city are representatives has shown bad faith in dealing with the question. At the outset he demanded a vote on the saloon question by all the legal voters of the place, apparently with the hope that the Negro vote would defeat the demand for the expulsion of the saloon, but now, it seems, having failed in his desires, he wishes to drag in the race question and cut off the representation in the city council of Clarksville, to which the Negroes are justly entitled. It is the action of such men as Mr. Cunningham that forces the Negro to align himself with elements which in no way tend toward the betterment of his race. A majority of the race, we believe, is opposed to the open and unrestricted saloon for these "hullabalos" or "dives" usually located in sections of the city occupied exclusively by colored people and run by white men are a standing menace to the morals of the youth of our race. But whenever an effort is made to rid a place of these "joints" there immediately appears a jack-out-the-box to raise the issue of white supremacy and rob the Negro of what little political power he has We congratulate the Anti-Saloon League of Clarksville, on the fight it is making to see that justice is done the colored citizens of the place. If they are victorious, the fight they have made will do much to establish the confidence of the Negroes of the state in the element of the white South, which is working for higher moral standards. BUNCOMBE The Governor of Florida in his message to the legislature, notting the strained relations between the races, recommends that a resolution be passed memorializing Congress to purchase territory either domestic or foreign, and segregate all the Negroes of the country there and force them to stay. There is nothing unique in the Governor's proposition. It belongs to the same family as does Bishop Turner's plan to have all the Negroes in America go to Afrika and if our memory is not at fault, John Temple Graves the classical monomaniac of Atlanta, Ga., has advocated the same proposition for several years. It seems that the less some of the Governors of the South know of the true inwardness of what they call the Negro Problem, the more ready they are to advance fantastic theories for its solution. Even if Gov. Broward's plans were feasible, the white business man and farmer of the South would offer such strong objections to its adoption that not a demagogue who had a desire to hold his seat in Congress would dare favor it. The South needs the Negro's labor too much for a sensible man to talk of getting rid of them. The Governor in the absence of anything else to say on the "problem" is talking buncombe: We are in receipt of a copy of the report of the second annual convention of the Mississippi Negro Business League, which was held at Jackson, Miss., June 13th and 14th of last year. The report which was compiled by W. A. Scott, A. B., Ph. D., of Edwards, Miss., shows in the addresses of the several persons who addressed the convention, and especially Chas. Banks, the President, that optimistic spirit which has done so much to advance the state in business in the past five years. We wish some one would tell us what Secretary Cortelyou did with the petition to have the Negro draughtsman removed from the department to which he had been assigned. Judging from the Secretary's record, we expected to hear him say that if the clerk's did not like the new acquisition they were not compelled to stay. Roosevelt undoubtedly wishes there was such an offense as lese majeste in this country. If there were our strenuous President would have Harriman confined "at once and without honor." Teddy would also be relieved from such a frequent use of the word liar. We are in receipt of a statement from Prof. W. E. B. DuBois in which he says that the report that he is preparing an exhibit for the Jamestown Exposition is untrue. We wish to call our patrons' attention that all communications should have the true name of the sender, not necessarily for publication, but for our own protection. The present legislature seems to be better in some respects than the several that have preceded it. They have been too busy squabbling to discuss us. However, the Senate in a committee composed of the whole added $6,000 for scholarships for colored children. A. B. Parker, the "safe insane" candidate for the presidency, bobs up semi-occasionally to say: "I told you so." We sympathize with the "Afro-American" newspapers of Chicago on account of Mayor Dunne. A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT TO WASHINGTON. The doctrine of optimism is the doctrine of hopefulness, and this was never more forcibly preached to the race than was done by one of its most powerful leaders, Booker T. Washington, before one of the most appreciative and representative audiences in an address to the graduating classes of Medicine, Denistry and Pharmacy of Meharry Medical College at Ryman Auditorium, Friday evening, March 29. Mr. Washington, the apostle of industrial education, was never more happy in the presentation of a strong and practical speech, replete with that sterling good sense for which he is universally noted. He indeed is not only a hopeful man, but a man of action, push and executive ability. It is not truer of any other than of Washington that he is worthy to lead, worthy to point the rising young men and women to the possibilities of the future. As one sits and listens at this truly great man fired by his theme, talking straight at his hearers the greatest possible good sense, one cannot but be inspired by his words of wisdom, one cannot but go forth again into Instructions and Lessons given in Piano, Organ, Violin, Mandolin, Guitar, Voice and Harmony.

He counsels every member of the race to help solve the problem of the race; this, Mr. Washington emphasizes, may be done by each working out his own individual success, morally, intellectually, financially and religiously. R. G. Martin. H. C. Martin & Fite THE FASHIONABLE TAIL SUITS TO ORDER, ... $15. PANTS ” ... $ 4. Mr. Washington's address to the largest class of colored medicos that has ever gone forth into the world at one time from any Medical institution of this or any other country, was a masterly effort fraught with the most wholesome advice. He measured up to his reputation as a sound adviser and covered himself with undying glory by his earnest, eloquent plea for the Negro to meet all conditions, however trying, with a strong and manly courage. He tried to impress the fact that complaining of oppression or usurped rights or any of the opposing forces to the race would effect nothing and had nothing in common with its betterment. He made the point that if we became a constructive people, a productive people that all the other things would adjust themselves in time. Mr. Washington is a forceful and forcible speaker who is justly classed as an orator—and an orator who will rank with the best that this country can now boast of. There is that air of earnestness and seriousness about the man, when swept on by the workings of his own well-balanced mind as he unbosoms himself of some great truth for the edification of his people, that leaves no doubt of his sincerity. And the people give evidence of their faith in his sincerity in no uncertain or half-hearted way. When he holds up a truth in his clear, strong and characteristic way, they applaud the effort to the echo. No greater compliment can be paid an orator than that close, silent and respectful attention which admits of his every word being heard. Such was the tribute paid Mr. Washington in his address to the Medical class of Meharry and before one of the most cultured, refined and appreciative audiences at Ryman Auditorium last Friday evening. Mr. Washington, among other great Negroes, is doing much for the race in preaching the gospel of hope, courand work which in the coming years, will inevitably result in concrete racial achievements as opposed to abstract, individual achievement as now obtains. There are those who may differ with Mr. Washington along some lines, but that he has and is accomplishing much for his people cannot be denied. The people have a duty to perform and that is to hold up the hands of the leaders and strengthen them by words of cheer, letting them know that their efforts are receiving hearty appreciation. For the first time in the history of Amherst College, a colored youth wins the most coveted prize. Arthur Curtis, son of Dr. A. M. Curtis, former surgeon-in-chief of Freedman's Hospital, and one of the leading surgeons of the race, won the Amherst cup for the best individual debate at the annual contest. What makes the honors higher still, Arthur Curtis is a Junior classman and is the first junior to ever win the cup. We congratulate the young man and his parents and the entire race upon this double victory at a time when so much is said about the Negro's ability to win on his merits. Here in one of the leading colleges of the nation where the whites are a hundred to one, the Negro wins the best prize under the decision of white men. This same rule is true at Harvard, Yale, and the other leading institutions of learning that admit our race. All we ask for is a fair chance, an open field and a fair fight. --- TERMS OF 1906—1907.

On March 31, 1907, Mrs, Mary F. Stevenson, the mother of Mrs. Hattie Cartwright, was 69 years old. Hence in commemoration of these three score and nine years, Mrs. Cartwright pre- pared for her mother an enjoyable en- tertainment, She threw open the doors of her residence on Patterson street from 4 to 9 p. m., and entertained ap- propriately the friends who came, which proved to be no small number. ‘Mrs, Stephenson, while at this ad- ., Yanced age, is hale and hearty. She has a remarkable memory and can boast of being the mother of eight children, seven'of whom are living and all married. Three of these reside in Columbia, Tenn., one in Chicago, IIL, one on the Harding Pike, one in Mad- isonville, Ky., and the other, Mrs. Cartwright, in Nashville. There are forty-two grandchildren and fourteen great-grandehildren, If the husbands of the daughters are to be counted, the Bhat? ase i i Writers tli hag arts 6 family numbers seventy-one, Mrs. Stevenson feels proud of her family. One of her grandsons, a Mr. Caruthers, is now at Amherst College. The menu served for Sunday evening was en- joyed by all, and especially the Globe representative, who showed his appre- ciation by the amount he ate. ee EASTER SERVICES. Last Sunday morning Rev, Joseph Kiel, pastor of Zion Bagtist Church, preached an able sermon taking as a text: ‘He is risen.” At 3 o'clock Rev. B, A. Lanier preached, and at night the Sunday School rendered a very interesting program, which included an address by Mr, 0, C. Brady, the Superintendent; solo, Miss Emma Rains; short. talks by Sunday school teachers, and a solo, Miss Viola Hough. ‘Miss Viola Baker, the organ- ist, deserves much credit for the ex: cellent music used in these services, FELLOWSHIP AND CO-OPERATION. SA Se ee fering, let me ask the question, Who can weigh and measure the aggregate of pain which this generation has en- dured, and will endure from birth to death? ‘Then add to this all the pain which has fallen, and will fall upon our race, through centuries past and to come, But take the other view of it, think of the Nemesis which has over taken pain during the past fifty years Anaesthetics and antiseptic su gery, which are ihe chief weapons used in our hospitals, have almost manacled the demon; and since their introduction the aggregate of pain, which has been prevented, far out- weighs in civilized communities that which has been suilered. The greatest art is in the conceal- ment of art, and 1 may say that we of the medical profession excel in this respect. You of the public who hear me, go about the duties of the day pro- foundly indifferent to the facts | have just mentioned. lt is no idle chal- lenge which we physicians, dentists, surgeons and trained nurses throw out to the world, when we claim that our mission is of the highest and noblest kind, not alone in curing diseases, but in educating the people in the laws of health and in preventing the spread of plagues and pestilences. With the ad- dition of this years class of noble young men and women, and the organi- zation of medical, dental pharmaceu- tical and nurse training societies, and the establishment of modern Negro hospitals throughout the Southland, we may look forward for greater we may look forward for greater things in the near future. And finally, re- member that we are useful supernum- eraries in the battle, simply stage ac- cessories in the drama, playing minor, but essential parts at the exits and en- trances, or picking up, here and there, a strutter, who may have tripped upon the stage. You have been much by the dark river, so near to us all, and have seen so many embark, that the dread of the old boatman has almost disappeared, and— “When the angel of the darker drink,’ At last shall find you by the rive brink, And offering this cup—invite you soul, forth To your lips to quaff—you shall no shrink. Your past-port shall be the blessing: of Him in whose foot steps you hav trodden, unto whose sick you hay ministered, and for whose childre’ you have cared, It is then that we can realize th truthfulness of the poet that: “Though the mills of God grind slow; Yet they grind exceeding small; Still with patience He stands waiting With exactness, grinds He all.” JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION. The United Order of True Reform- ers, of which W. L, Taylor, of Rich mond, is president, is to illustrate in a practical way the development of the Negro as a banker. They will erect a substantial building, and throughout the life of the Exposition, will have in full operation a model bank, with safe deposit attachment, staff of cash- fers and tellers, and will handle the money of concessionaires, receive de- posits from visitors and employees, and transact a regular banking bust- ness for all who may require such service. eee Our people may congratulate them- selves upon the happy location of the Negro Building. It is situated near the main entrance to the Exposition grounds, and faces the principal thoroughfares—the first and most con- spicucus structure the visitor sees whea he passes through the gates, The North Carolina exhibit will be especially fine, perhaps the most elab- orate of the state exhibits, The work from the North Carolina institution for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind will be worth traveling many miles to see. This comprehensive exhibit is due to the cnergetic labors of Dr. C. H, Hun- ter, Secretary of State Commission, and Mield Agent C. H. Williamson. It will be remembered that the State of North Carolina appropriated the hand: some sum of $5,000 to aid their pro- | grees ve colored citizens in letting the wor!’ know how rapidly they are moving forward. see W. Sidney Pittman, who has been in Norferk and at the Exposition groun s supervising the erection of the i: posing “structure he has de sign]. is one of the leading archi tects in this country, irrespective of race cr color, He is a graduate of Pusle ce Institute, and of the Drexel Schoo’ of Fine Arts at Philidelphia.

(A poem by J. Herman Moore.) Locked in the bone chamber of the skull, Our mind works on with never tiring zeal, Creating plans, and imagery untold, Battling ere to free its fettered soul. For though our wrongs and sins like billows roll, Or blackest crime besmirch our life's white scroll, Chained by lust in passion's filthy pin, The mind of man is never quite all sin. The drunkard in the gutter, or culprit at the bar. The unpunished rascal near or far, The lowest reprobate in dingy street, Or gilded sinner in Prince's seat, Have in their minds much thought, and hope of good, And happily would release sin if they could. I have watched sin-maddened men in their rage. And seen them pause to give a cripple aid. Have heard them grant the truth of Holy Sage. And cry to God to break their prison cage. I have seen the convict in his dismal cell. And have seen tears flood his eyes while there. And so, I say again for every man, Or black, or white, or near or distant land, There is a God struggling neath his skin. The mind of man is never quite all sin. JOHN THOMAS CARUTHERS COM ING HOME. Information has been given out by the relatives of Mr. John Thomas Caruthers, whose home is in Nashville, Tenn., and who graduated about five years ago from Roger Williams University, that he will visit them during the coming summer. Mr. Caruthers is at present at Amherst College in Massachusetts. He has been away now from the city more than four years, not even favoring the home folks with a visit in all of this time. Notwithstanding he is absent, he keeps pace with what is going on at home, as he is a regular correspondent and a devoted grandson. His grandmother, Mrs. Mary F. Stevenson, who reared him from a child, is the recipient each week of the most affectionate letters that could be written. Mr. Caruthers will graduate with the class of 1907 at Amherst. He is the only Negro in his class, which is an extremely large one. It will possibly be interesting, as well as' pleasing to his many friends, to know just what has been said of him at his school. The Index and Annual published by the Junior Class of the Massachusetts Agricultural College of Amherst, Mass., in Volume 37, contained the following paragraph concerning John Thomas Caruthers. "He was born March 22, 1879. His home was in the hilly country where the phosphate grows, and the little goats skip about over the bones of their ancient predecessors. He tells us that when he was not occupied in driving these refractory beasts, he was attending the public schools of Columbia. Later he graduated from the Normal Academic course at Nashville. As Massachusetts best suited his ideas of what a college should be, he joined the class of 1907, and has never since regretted his choice. He has been a strong man of his class, having filled with dignity the position of surgeon-at-arms and having been rope pull captain for two years. As a result, 'Naughty-seventh' holds two trophies well won. Major honored him with the corporalsy and he is a man always to be counted on in times of need." It has been learned from authoritative sources that Mr. Caruthers will not remain South, that on account of his high rating in his class and his brilliancy as a student, he has already been offered and will possibly accept a position in Jersey City, N. J. He will remain in the South only until the latter part of August or the first of September. A cordial reception awaits his arrival. PROF, P. T. FRAZIER OF KEN- TUCKY. The president of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Hopkinsville, Ky., Prof. P. T. Frazier, was among the prominent visitors in Nashville last week. Prof. Frazier was for a long time prominently connected with the Eckstein Norton University of Cane Springs, Ky., but like many ambitious young men he preferred to go out into a smaller school and build it up. The A. & M. College at Hopkinsville, is one of the progressive schools owned by the Negro Baptists. It is strictly a boarding school. The enrollment does not include any day pupils.

C. H. Clark, who entertained him at dinner Wednesday. His business here, he stated to a Globe representative, was in the interest of his school. "I propose, said Prof. Frazier, to get for my school Negro songs, written by Negroes, printed by a Negro publishing house and run off on Negro printing presses, as they will be sung by Negroes." "My troupe," said Prof. Frazier, in addressing the chapel of the Baptist Publishing Board,"has traveled throughout the South. We have sung to some of the leading audiences and we propose to take hold of what songs we get and make them what they should be." Prof. Frazier left Saturday morning for his home. DEATH HAS VISITED MT. OLIVE ONCE MORE. Death has visited Mt. Olive and claimed for its own our dear, beloved sister, Mattie P. Haddox, who has been President of the Ladies Missionary Department since its organization, and who proved in every respect to be a faithful worker. It pains our hearts to give her up, whereas, to us it seems that we can ill afford to sustain so great a stroke; yet we come here to-day to bow to heaven's will. God's will be done not ours. We can say with full assurance that a great woman has fallen in Israel. She has been our representative in local and national work for many years, but today she has been called from labor to reward to represent us in the Great Church beyond. She will never be forgotten. We will ever cheer her in our memory. Whereas, The sorrow-stricken husband, sister, children, relatives and friends now have sorrow that only heaven can heal, be it. Resolved. That we, as sisters, enter into the most heartfelt sympathy with them; Whereas. We shall greatly miss her from our midst, it is therefore, Resolved. To march with clankering arms and broken ranks the remaining part of the journey, with steady tread and a fixed gaze on Jesus, the son of God, crying as we go. "Jesus shall reign where e'er the sun Doth his successive journey run;" Till we, at last like her plant the old flag at the Master's feet, under the shade of the ever blessed tree. Whereas, The community has lost an honored and faithful citizen, we do here and now most heartily offer our greatest sympathy in this their hour of grief; therefore be it, Resolved, That we do here and now how to heaven's mandate and agree that our loss is heaven's gain; be it Further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Nashville Globe and Nashville Clarion for publication.

Clarksville, Tenn., April 4.—The lat- ter part of February witnessed an election for the elimination of the sa- loons of this city, carrying with it, the expressed purpose of changing the city charter, with only the above named traffic abolished. A few col- ored men, with political following, as- sisted in ridding the city of the sa loons, with the understanding that no changes were to be made other than the abolition of the saloons, but at this writing, it seems that a de cided change has come about, much to the discomfort of our people. Con- ditions predicted by one side and de- nied by the other have apparently come to pass, and, “I told you so” is heard on every hand. In_ polit- ical parlance, “a lemon” has been handed the colored voter. ‘The new charter changes the mode of election of aldermen from each ward to the city at large, thereby elimin- ating the colored representative from the Ninth. The only hope to relieve this drastic condition is left with the state legislature and that outcome is already anticipated. The Thanksgiving services of the ‘Twentieth Century Lodge, Knights of Pythias, were held last Sunday at WesleyChapel C. M. EB. Church, be- fore a large concourse of people, with the Rev. T. J. Goodall, of Nashville, officiating. Much interest is now cen- tered on this body of young men by the citizens of this city over the ex- empliary manner in which the re- mains of Knight Charles Bowen were interred. So impressed were several young men, that they are now seek- ing admission. Next week the rank of Page and Esquire will be conferred upon twenty-two applicants. The chilly temperature on Easter Sunday did not daunt many from com- ing forth in their new apparel, nor de- ter Mt. Olive converts and the Rev. E. H. Smith from taking on and admin- istering the rites of holy baptism. Be- fore a crowd of 2,500, and in the chil- ling waters of the Cumberland river the pastor, assisted by two of his dea- cons, administered the baptismal rites to sixty-five converts. Fifth Ward Baptist Church, the old- est church of that denomination in the city has called and will install as pastor, next Sunday, Rev. T. J. Good- all, assistant pastor of First Baptist Church, of East Nashville. _Impres- sive ‘services will be held and special music sung by several choirs of this city and First Baptist Church choir, of East Nashville.
