VOL. II.
STRUCK DOWN BY GLASS LEGISLATION.
AN UNWARRANTED LAW
A MEANER PIECE OF LEGISLATION WAS NEVER RAILROADED THROUGH BY ANY LAW-MAKING BODY THAN THE ONE AIMED AT THE EXISTENCE OF THE ONLY PARK FOR COLORED PEOPLE IN THIS VICINITY.
A local bill entitled "To regulating the location of parks and places of amusements" was passed by the legislature of the State of Tennessee, Thursday night, April 4. The passage of this bill blotted out the only breathing place where the colored citizens of this place could go to get out of the dust, grime and foul gases of the city and get a little fresh air and enjoy themselves.
The bill was hatched so solely to affect Greenwood Park. It was so worded as not to affect any of the amusement places or parks of the whites. It was a gerrymander of the worst kind. It provides that no park or amusement place outside the corporate limits of Nashville shall be maintained, used, or operated within two miles of a cemetery, in the city limits within a quarter of a mile. So you see it was to put out of commission "Beautiful Greenwood Park."
What will be the next curtailment inflicted upon us by that class of prejudice-ridden whites who are having nightmares over what the Negro is doing? That class of whites is not bothered by the low, worthless Negro; it is the intelligent, thrifty, progressive, law-abiding Negro that looms up so disturbingly in its dreams.
The colored people have been shut out from the parks and places of amusements frequented by the white race, and now they are forbidden by a law to have one and the one they have is struck down by this unwarranted act. The class behind this law admits by its passage that the Negro must be checked in his progress. Every city in this country encourages the building and maintaining of parks and places where its people may go to amuse themselves. They are wholesome and civilizing influences which affect all people alike, and one race has as much right to own and maintain parks and places of healthful amusement in a given community as another, whatever may be said to the contrary notwithstanding.
The solons representing Davidson County in the state legislature deemed it wise and expedient and for the best interest of society and the community to legislate out of existence a beautiful park already in operation.
Greenwood Park is the gift of Elder Preston Taylor for the free use of his people as a place of amusement. This generous, prosperous, public-spirited man saw the need of such a refining influence for his people and his great heart went out to them to the extent of this magnificent gift which to them cannot be measured by dollars and cents, though it cost him twenty thousand dollars to put it into its present excellent condition. It is indeed a beautiful pleasure resort with everything conveniently and tastily arranged—a pretty club house, with several apartments and a large spacious open court or veranda, where hundreds of people, if they choose, may be seated and served with refreshments; a splendid skating rink—a large amusement hall beautifully seated with costly seating on an inclined floor and a spacious stage for concert, minstrel or dramatic performance—a bountiful spring with a covered, open platform and two pumps to raise the clear water therefrom to slake the thirst of the thirst—healthy sanitary conditions were not forgotten and ample arrangements were made.
Six hundred trees have been planted which add materially to the beauty of the landscape; in short, everything has been done to make it an ideal place where the colored people could meet and enjoy themselves as do the whites at Glendale and their many other parks and places, against the existence of which there is no law. Nathan the Prophet's exposure of King David's meanness and selfishness in taking Uriah's only wife while
NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY. APRIL 12. 1907
he himself had hundreds would aptly fit the meanness that characterizes the act of the powers that be which takes from the colored people their only park.
David was awfully wroth when Nathan told him of the fellow who had a flock and then took the other man's one lamb. He wanted to kill something, but when the prophet, pointing an accusing finger at him, said: "Thou art the man," then David wanted a chance to repent in sackcloth and ashes. Davidson County's statesmen would have a chance of getting by St. Peter into the Celestial City were they as capable of seeing the "smallness" of their law which strikes down Greenwood Park, as David was in striking down Uriah to get his wife. The meanness in both instances transcends reason.
The law says for its authors: "We don't want you Negroes to be good citizens, therefore, we take from you one of the agencies which would tend to make you such. If you take any amusement you must take it on the curbing under police surveillance in the tenderloin districts or sweat it out within the compass of your homes. You shall not have a park inside corporate limits nor shall you have one outside of it, and you better not think of peeping through the fence of ours." This law, which was aimed only at Greenwood, is a microbe of the blackest prejudice, and it was railroaded through in one night. Like the owl, it was conceived in the night, born in the night, presented in the night and passed in the night; so it is a malformation of the night.
Booker T. Washington says be optimistic, be hopeful, yet such laws, ranking in hatred, make the thoughtful stop and think loud enough to be heard. What's next?
A BRIEF VISIT.
The noted newspaper correspondent, Mr. Chas. Stewart, with Northern headquarters at Chicago and Southern headquarters at Normal, Ala., passed through Nashville Monday morning en route to Normal. A Globe reporter learned that he was in the city but could not reach the station in time. However, he had a talk with him over the 'phone.
When asked by the Globe man where he had been, Mr. Stewart replied: "Oh, I have just been riding around over the country. I spent a month in Texas with my family, whose home is in Lamarque, Texas. I have been to Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia and a hundred other places. I am now slated to take care of the medical association which will be in Birmingham this week."
"What are your plans for the summer," was the next question asked Mr. Stewart.
"They are not all formed yet," replied the newspaper man. "I do know, however, that from June 26 and the 28, I will be in Mississippi attending the Negro Business League of that state, and I promised the Sunday School Congress management that I would be in New Orleans from the 28th to the 30th. Other than this I shall not be busy, except attending the regular annual meetings."
Mr. Stewart's famous typewriter was with him on this trip as usual. He expects to make Nashville some time during the summer.
NASHVILLE LOSES THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONGRESS
Nashville, by its inactivity, has lost another big annual meeting. New Orleans has gained one by its activity. This meeting is the National Baptist Sunday School Congress and Young People's Chautauqua. A call for this second annual meeting has been issued to convene in New Orleans, La., June 26 to 30. This is one of the annual meetings that brings hundreds of cultured young people from all parts of the United States. It is to be regretted that it could not hold its second session in this city, as it was contemplated at the inauguration of this movement to hold its regular sessions here. But it is learned from the management of the Congress that so little interest was manifested in Nashville by the churches and citizens to insure the sessions, it was forced to go where better inducements were offered. New Orleans has guaranteed the management that every attention will be given its delegates and visitors.
ENJOYABLE OCCASION.
Miss Birdie Grant, of 1606 Jackson street, entertained a limited number of her friends last Thursday evening. Games and music were the features of entertainment. A light menu was served at a late hour. The participants were Misses Thomas, of North Carolina; Graveye Frank, Ruth McKinney, Charley Rosenberg, Ethel Spence, Belma Mahan, Messrs, Jasper Phillips, Fred J. Ewing, J. O. Battle, D. Wesley Crutcher, and Lucian Searcy.
SURPRISE PARTY GIVEN MRS. J. J. BENEFIELD, OF HOT SPRINGS, ARK.
A number of young ladies, under the leadership of Miss Belma Mahan, arranged and gave in honor of Mrs. J. J. Benefield at the home of her parents, Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, a very enjoyable surprise party, Saturday evening, April 6.
Mrs. Benefield, who resides at Hot Springs, Ark., came to attend the marriage ceremonies of her brother, Mr. J. Blaine Boyd, and also to pay a visit of several weeks to her parents and many friends. As the time drew near for her return home, the young ladies planned this social treat that she might carry with her the pleasant memories of it as a token of their regard.
Mrs. Benefield, before her marriage and taking up residence in another state, was very popular and prominent in the social life of the city, having numerous friends who still cherish their friendship for her and she always finds a welcome reception when she returns. She expressed herself as having enjoyed this visit passing well, having been the recipient of many social courtesies, but none which she enjoyed more or will live longer in appreciation than the one so successfully arranged, without her having an inkling of knowledge, by the young ladies for her pleasure on the eve of her departure.
The young ladies with their escorts, according to prearrangements, met at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. George Jackson, 524 Third avenue, North, where a pleasant time was spent in chatting, games and music until all had arrived. Then the merry party proceeded to the residence of Dr. and Mrs. Boyd on Second avenue, North, taking Mrs. Benefield completely by surprise. The parlor was lighted up and thrown open and soon, as if by magic, the scene presented was one of animation and pleasure. Conversation, music and song were the order of the hour. The genial Doctor, after getting over his surprise, and his affable wife, who had been given a "tip" as what was going to transpire, were soon around and among the jolly surprisers, smiling and. chatting, and as gay and happy as any. Those present were Mrs. J. J. Benefield, of Hot Springs, Ark.; Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, Misses Belma Mahan, Nellie E. King, Bertha Lee, Ruth McKinney, Georgia Bradford, Nannie I. Sumner, Bessie Martin, Janie E. Benson, Ethel H. Spence, Wertie Harris, Dewitt Shorter, Katie Shelton, Emma Shorter, Margaret L. Robinson, Reba Lathan, Estella Montague, Georgia Watkins, Mary Clark and Rebecca McCants, Mr. and Mrs. J. Blaine Boyd, Mr. and Mrs. A. Julius Williams, Messrs, Henry Floyd, D. Wesly Crutcher, J. Frank Battle, A. T. Landers, Geo. O. Boyd, J. D. Crenshaw, Joseph O. Battle, Lucian Seary, Henry Allen Boyd, Wm. Boger, Hon. R. L. Mayfield, Samuel Carter, Fred J. Ewing, John H. Kelly, Eugene Page and Jasper T. Phillips.
About eleven o'clock a four-course menu was served, which, as the evening grew on apace, came as a welcome feature of the occasion and was heartily enjoyed by all. After the delicacies had been partaken of the surprisers prepared for home-going. They congratulated themselves on the success of their plans—the complete surprise given Mrs. Benefield—and after expressions of the pleasures of the evening, bade the family adieu.
PRINCE HERRMAN.
Because of the heavy rain all day and at night, the crowd at Meharry Auditorium last Friday night did not number more than 500, but those who attended were more than pleased and many valuable presents were awarded the fortunate ones who held the lucky numbers.

UNION TRANS-
PORTATION CO.'S
INTERESTING MEETING MON-
DAY NIGHT AT
NAT'L BAPTIST CHAPEL
A NUMBER OF STOCKHOLDERS PRESENT AND EXPRESSED THEMSELVES SATISFIED WITH THE MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY'S AFFAIRS UNDER THE PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES—ANOTHER MEETING SOON
The stockholders of the Union Transportation Company held a meeting Monday night in the chapel of the National Baptist Publishing Board, corner Second avenue, North, and Locust street. The inclement weather prevented a full attendance, yet a sufficient number of the stockholders was present to open the meeting and transact such business as was pressing. President Taylor presided. The future of the company seemed to be the most important matter coming up for discussion. Every stockholder present expressed himself as having been well pleased with the slow progress that has been made by the company. The suspension of the operation of the cars has by no means broken down the confidence of the stockholders in the management and the officers, who have been handicapped by lack of finances.
It is learned that the failure of many of the subscribers of stock to pay up their shares has to a great extent embarrassed the company, although it has through their energetic officers met every obligation upon it. It is freely asserted that at the next meeting of the stockholders an expression will be had as to what is to be done during the coming summer months.
Mr. Henry A. Boyd, the secretary, stated that he had possibly a dozen letters of inquiry from different cities wanting to purchase the cars. A firm in Owensboro, Ky., another in Memphis, one in New Orleans, and several in the state of Tennessee had made propositions in writing. These were taken up by the stockholders and discussed, and by unanimous vote they decided that a sufficient number of cars could be sold subject to the original purchase mortgage. Just who the lucky people will be in purchasing the cars is not known.
A Globe reporter asked Rev. Mr. Taylor if it was the intention of the Company to dispose of all the cars? "Not by any means," responded Pres. Taylor. "We have put the cars here for the benefit of the colored people. They want them; all they will have to do is to get in new batteries and the cars are ready for service." Another meeting is called for an early date and a full attendance is requested, not only of the paid up stockholders, but of all subscribers of stock and any of those interested in the project.
WILL NOT GO TO MOBILE.
A few weeks ago rumor was afloat that Dr. R. H. Voorhees, who has dental parlors in the Pythian Temple, would leave Nashville to locate in Mobile, Ala. A Globe representative has been trying to find out whether this was true or not. In a recent interview with Dr. Voorhees he stated that while it is true he has had flattering inducements to locate in Mobile, with an assurance of a lucrative practice, he could not accept the offer for several reasons. The first, because he has been in Nashville so long that he did not care to break up and leave. Second, the continued poor health of his father, who is aging very fast and who, in his advanced years, becomes more attached to the children. Last, but not least, because of the pressure brought to bear by his host of friends as well as his practice. Thus he stated that he had positively declined the offer, after giving it due consideration.
Dr. John W. Foster and Miss Euphemia Bunch were quietly married Tuesday evening, April 2, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Bunch, on Cartwright street. Rev. Mr. Par performed the ceremony. The bride was beautifully sown in a dress of white lace over silk. After the ceremony the bride and groom left for their future home in Jacksonville, Fla.
Mr. Barton, who recently bought the late Rev. Daniel Murray place on East Seventh street, is making extensive improvements, and, when finished, will be the finest residence here among our people. Rev. Mr. Darden, of Nashville, is visiting Rev. S. L. Howard. Mrs. Green Shepard, of Hill street, is improving after a long spell of sickness. Mr. Tucker Hedgepeth, of Tenth street, died March 30th.
EBENEZER NOTES
Dr. E. W. S. Hammonds, of Walden University, will preach at Ebenezer next Sunday at 11:00 a.m.
Miss Hattie E. Henly is to leave for Chicago soon.
Messrs. Hazzie Huggins, Elmore Tilford, Andrew McIntosh and Henry H. Walker have joined themselves into a club for the purpose of starting into some business which one alone could manage.
Henry H. Walker sang a solo for the Epworth League of St. Paul last Sunday evening, accompanied by Miss Beatrice Stewart, of Walden University.
The daughter of Mrs. Copeland has been very sick.
MR. ALBERT SEXTON IN ST.
LOUIS
Nashville has lost Mr. Albert Sexton, who opened up the Temple Studio under the name of Sexton & Hynes. Mr. Sexton has gone to St. Louis where he has taken charge of an up-to-date photograph establishment. His journey here was not to be permanent and this was thoroughly understood, but it was hoped that he would remain in the city until the summer, but to no avail. The Temple Studio is now closed. Whether it will be opened or not is not known.
MRS. STEPHENS ENTERTAINS
MRS. STEPHENS ENTERTAINS.
Mrs. Stephens entertained at dinner Saturday evening the Misses Curtis, of Hot Springs, Ark., both of whom are students in Fisk University. They are the daughters of Dr. A. M. Curtis, of that city, who is one of the best known physicians of the race. Mrs. Stephens is the wife of Dr. Stephens, of Texarkana, Ark. They have recently purchased a beautiful home on Eighteenth avenue, North, just across from Livingston Hall. She is here in the interest of her children, who are attending Fisk University.
VISITOR ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. Emma Battle entertained in formally a few friends Tuesday evening at her residence, 922 Blank street the guest of honor being Miss Willie Griffey, of McMinnville, who has been visiting in the city for several days. The evening was spent in playing various games, after which ices were served. Those present were Misses Willie Griffey, Elnora Berry, Charley Rosenberg, Ethel Spence, Belma Mahan, Anna M. Mate, Ruth McKinney Willie Battle, Eleanor Battle, Messrs A. T. Landers, D. W. Crutcher. Wm Boger, Geo. O. Boyd, Fred J. Ewing J. O. Battle, J. Frank Battle.
REV. PAGE NO BETTER.
Rev. Robert Page, one of Nashville's old and much beloved preachers, the pastor of Mt. Glead Baptist Church, who was so painfully hurt by the running away of his horse on Tuesday, April 2, as was reported in the Globe last week, has not shown very much improvement in his condition. The attending physician is of the opinion that it will be several days before there will be a change for the better and it will be a long time if ever before he will be able to be out.

FIGHTING THE DEVIL IN NASH-
VILLE.
One of the greatest revivals known
in the history of Nashville just closed.
It appears that every denomination in
the city without an exception assisted
in trying to wage a successful conflict
against Satan and his host. Prayer
meetings begin each revival. These
were continued until sufficient interest
was manifested by the Christians and
sinners to secure the services of elo-
quent divines with that evangelistic
power which is very necessary to con-
duct such meetings. It is estimated
that fully 500 persons were converted
since 1907 was ushered in. Those
churches who have not had the serv-
ices of an evangelist have carried on
their revivals in the form of regular
prayer meetings and earnest efforts
have been put forward to do some-
thing in the name of a “suffering Sav-
fous.” Among the churches that have
done much along this line are St. An-
drews (Presbyterian), Salem A. M. E.
Church, Second Baptist Church, First
Baptist Church (East Nashville), St.
John’s A. M. B. Church, Pleasant
Green Baptist Church, Lea Avenue
Christian Church, Payne Chapel (East
Nashville), Sylvan Street Baptist
Chureh (East Nashville), St. Paul A.
(M. EB. Church, First Baptist Church,
Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Bethel A. M.
E. Church, Spruce Street Baptist
Church and Mount Olive Baptist
Chureh. The last two churches suc-
ceeded in getting the largest number
of conyersions yet reported. The
Spruce Street meeting was conducted
by the new pastor, Rev. T. J. Town:
send, Mount Olive Baptist Church’s
meeting was conducted bv Rey. Mr.
Moore, of Decatur, Ala., who has just
closed this meeting and left for his
home. Mt. Olive being the largest
church in the city, having a member.
ship of something over 1,200, naturally
attracted a large attendance. Rev. Mr
Moore was given a hearty endorse
ment. It is expected that in keeping
with the rule, other churches will be
gin revival meetings.

THE CAMPAIGN OPENS.
Nineteen months until the election of a President, but the campaign is on with a vengeance. The storm centre in the republican party at present is Ohio. It is in this state that the fate of Roosevelt's candidate is to be decided. Mr. Taft's candidacy was launched from the White House last week with a five million dollar conspiracy to down the Rooseveltian policies, for the accompanying pyrotechnics. This is followed by an interview from the President's son-in-law endorsing the big breezy Secretary of War. Senator Foraker, who represents the opposition to the President naming his successor, explicitly explained his position Wednesday. Ohio is under the glare of the calcium lights with special spot lights for Foraker and Taft, and, since the former has made such a fight for the boys of the Twenty-fifth, the outcome will be awaited with interest by Negroes throughout the country.
THE NASHVILLE BRAND.
The hot weather evidently caused "The Nashville Brand" to mistake Palm Sunday for Easter. She was out in all her glory last Sunday. Her hat was a dream, her dress, a rhapsody, her oxford ties—well, we didn't look at her feet.—Nashville (Tenn.) Globe. You didn't say anything about how their faces looked, brother. Springfield's "beauties" were out Palm Sunday and Easter; their clothes were not only shining resplendently, but their very faces were fac-similes of angelic glory and beauty.—The Springfield (lll.) Forum.
We'll bet that the St. Luke's Herald, of Richmond, Va., was satisfied to hear of the hat, the dress and the shoes.
Springfield, Tenn., jealous of the notoriety given its namesakes in Missouri and Ohio, is now trying to get some free advertising by refusing to accept mail from one of the rural route carriers because he is a Negro. Teddy has quit doing stunts like the Indianola affair. He has been broadened so much by official cares that he devotes his time to such anaemic sports as tennis and calling men liars!
The Mobile Weekly Press is out in a special edition celebrating its thirteenth anniversary.
John Temple Graves wants Bryan to nominate Roosevelt on the democratic ticket. Bryan objects—for the present. It is now up to the White House to accuse Bryan of being in a conspiracy.
Near the close of the session the Legislature seems to be getting into the old rut of passing bills to "keep the Negro "down."

FIRST ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BRANCH OFFICE OF THE LIFE AND CASUALTY INSURANCE CO.
On Monday, April 9, 1906, the Life and Casualty Insurance Company of the State of Tennessee, opened a branch office of its company in the Pythian Temple, 428 Fifth Avenue, N. The running of this department was placed in the hands of Mr. Aaron J. Dodd, as its Superintendent, with a corps of energetic agents commissioned to solicit insurance among the colored people of the city. This department was and is managed exclusively by colored agents. The work has proven to be a success and has given general satisfaction to the patrons. As the work increased the force was increased also. Mr. Richard A. Ewin was promoted to the position of superintendent, which position he now holds. Under his charge the branch department has grown rapidly and a guaranteed success is assured the company. Monday evening, April 8th, Mr. R. A. Ewin and his corps of agents observed an occasion generally known as the anniversary of the department under their control at St. John A. M. E. Church. A large and appreciative audience was present.
The Economical Steam Laundry Co. is now running delivery wagons and will be glad to have their agents call for your packages. It guarantees first-class service. Try its work under its new management.

T HOWARD CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
The farewell service at Howard Congregational Church, given in honor of Mrs. Virginia W. Broughton, the State Superintendent of the Colored Women's Christian Temperance Union, who sails soon for Rome, Italy, to attend the International Sunday School Convention, was well attended and was hearty and enthusiastic. Mrs. Broughton is too well known to the readers of the Globe to need introduction—a graduate of Fisk University with the first class sent out from that famous institution, a tireless worker in church and reform organizations, a speaker of unusual power, and one of the most prominent Negro women in the South. The local W. C. T. U., of which Mrs. James Bond is President, gave the farewell service.
Mrs. Bond presided. Mrs. Pinkston presided at the piano and lead in the service of song. Miss Robinson read the scripture lesson and Mrs. Susan Lowe led in prayer. "Blest be the tie" was then sung.
The president of the local union introduced Mrs. Broughton, who took as her text the motto of the W. C. T. U.—"For God and Home and Native Land." She showed why Negroes should be interested in the W. C. T. U. It stands for good morals, pure religion, pure homes, pure politics; it stands for childhood and womanhood; it is the foe of the saloon, and the saloon is the Negro's greatest enemy. Negroes must line up against the saloon. She said that she hoped to creditably represent the Negro womanhood of America.
Bishop Phillips spoke of "Fellowship," and gave expression to sentiments of appreciation and esteem. He spoke highly of the character and work of Mrs. Broughton, and heartily endorsed the Union and its work. Miss Perkins spoke of the local work and pledged the state President that the work would be carried on with energy while she was abroad. Mrs. Bond wished her a "bon voyage."
Deacon J. C. Napier bade her farewell in a few well chosen words. He referred to the time when the colored people of Nashville were closer together than now, and spoke of the great work to the community of Mrs. Broughton's father and mother. He was a temperance man and in sympathy with the growing temperance sentiment. A free will offering was taken for Mrs. Broughton.
"God be with you till we meet again,' was sung as the audience came forward and shook Mrs. Broughton's hand and bade her farewell for a time. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. James Bond.
PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
The baseball game between the High School team and the second team of Fisk University will be played on the Fisk Campus, Saturday afternoon, April 13, at 2:30 o'clock. This game was scheduled for last Saturday, April 6, but on account of rain had to be postponed.
The hall and classrooms will soon resound with the eloquence of Commencement speakers. The valedictorian has handed in her oration and it is now going through the process of criticism, elimination and digestion.
Considerable boiling down was found
necessary. On the whole, however, the piece possessed considerable merit. The subject, "Night brings out the stars," is something new and offers a wide field for treatment. The salutatorian will speak on the subject of "The two Washington." The lives of George and Booker will be contrasted in a unique and instructive way. Considerable surgical work had to be done on this oration before it reached a state to be presented to the public. Your reporter understands that Prof. Smith, the principal, has decided to cut out all that flow of gush and thanks to the Superintendent and Board, which has characterized the pieces of former speakers. The public will hear very little of that in the future. Just enough will be said to let the authorities know that Negroes appreciate their opportunities.
The class in manual training has now taken up basket making, under the direction of Prof. E. C. Andrews, of the white corps. This work appears to be more difficult than rag weaving and gave a majority of the teachers some little trouble. Mrs. Anderson, of Napier, and Miss Pinkard, of Pearl, impressed your reporter as the most apt and efficient in this branch.
ANNUAL BOARD MEETING
Sunday School Union—Dr. Chappelle Makes Good a Report—Bishop Turner Lectures at Payne Chapel.
The regular annual meeting of the Board of Managers of the Sunday School Union of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, convened on Wednesday in the office of the Publishing House, 206 Public Square. A full attendance of the board was present, and the regular routine of business was gone through. Dr. Chappelle, the secretary of the institution, submitted a report that was creditable to him and which pleased the board to the uttermost. His report showed that while there had been an increase in his expenses, there had also been a corresponding increase in his receipts.
This institution is the oldest among Negroes to start the publication of Sunday school periodicals. It was organized in 1882, by Dr. C. S. Smith, now a bishop in his church. Dr. Smith was at the head of this institution until he wa selected to the episcopacy in 1900 at Columbus, Ohio. Dr. Chappelle succeeded him in that year. In coming to Nashville, he found nothing here but the bare walls of the house. He at once went to work and in less than two years had installed a plant that was second to none. He bought the very best machinery and printing material that could be had, and is turning out more work and better work than has been turned out from the house during its existence. His report showed that it was necessary from time to time to increase both the number of employees and the amount of machinery and printing material. The total receipts for the year were $36,482, which is an increase over all previous years. The board unanimously adopted his report and expressed themselves as being highly pleased with the manner in which he conducts his business.
Dr. Chappelle is being favorably considered as a candidate for the bishopric at the next session of the general conference, which convenes in Norfolk, Va., in May, 1908, and the great record he has made during his administration as secretary and treasurer of the Sunday School department of his church, in the minds of many, entitle him to the honor.
The members of the board present were Bishop H. M. Turner, of Atlanta, Ga.; Rev. J. C. Williams, Sumter, S. C.; Rev. J. A. Jones, Shelbyville, Tenn.; Rev. J. M. Turner, Lexington, Ky.; Rev. L. Gaines, Baltimore, Md.; Messrs. L. Winter, C. S. Randals and Richard Hill, of Nashville. Bishop Lee, who is the bishop of the conferences of Tennessee and Arkansas, was also present and visited the sessions of the board.
Bishop Turner lectured at Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church on Wednesday night to a large and appreciative audience. Every one who heard him expressel themselves as having been greatly benefited by being present. Bishop Turner is a man of rare ability, and is conceded to be living ahead of his time. He is well stricken with age, but is vigorous and active, always prosecuting the cause of his race. The members of the board returned to their several homes Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Bishop Turner returned to Atlanta, Ga., and Bishop Lee left for Shelbyville Tenn., to hold the annual board meeting of the Turner Normal and Industrial School of that place.
JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION NOTES.
The accommodation for visitors will be ample and the rates will be reasonable. Mr. L. W. Bright, the wealthiest colored man in Norfolk, is putting up an elegant hotel at a cost of $20,000. It is called "The Lit Vernon," and will have all modern improvements. He is also adding several rooms to his beautiful cottage by the sea, near the Exposition grounds, which will be opened to guests. A group of business men are planning to erect a hotel adjacent to the Exposition reservation, to be called "The Brighton Beach Hotel."

BRENTWOOD NOTES.
The Magnolia Sewing Circle met last Monday, April 8, at the home of Mrs. Sol. Hunt, on Elm Lane. The weather was so bad that only a few of the members attended, but those who were there had a delightful time. Lots of work was done. A three-course menu was served. Those present were Mesdames G. W. Voories, Green Hunt, Huston Cole, R. E. Johnson, Jr., and Sol Hunt. The Circle adjourned to meet at the home of Mrs. J. C. Crawley, Monday, April 15, at Locust Lawn, at which place Mrs. James Bond, of Nashville, will address the club.
At Brook's Chapel Sunday School last Sunday there was a lively contest between the girls and boys as to which would have the banner. It is the custom in this Sunday school to have a banner stand at the head of the class that raises the largest amount of money. The banner has stood at the head of the girl's class for some time. Last Sunday the boys made up their minds that they would get the banner and so raised the largest amount of money. Prince Herrman gave a very fine show at Brook's Chapel M. E. Church last Saturday night, at which he astonished his audience with his wonderful performances. He will show again Saturday night, April 20, 1907, at which time it is expected there will be a crowded house.
Rev. James D. Finnell visited his sister, of Lewisburg, Tenn., last Sunday.
Revs. Mark, Owens and J. O. Gentry preached at. Brook's Chapel Sunday night.
The young girls and boys gave a very enjoyable party last Wednesday night at the home of Mrs. Thomas Walker. A good many of the parents were there.
Different kinds of plays were indulged in until a very late hour, when the hostess invited the young folks in to the dining room and served them with cream and cake.
"YOU."
Today in the world was gay,
Roses and violets bloomed by the way,
The tiny bluebells drank the dew,
The birds sang sweetly in the trees;
All nature was bright—
I walked with you.
To-day the world seems dark and
drear,
No roses and violets bloom by the way;
The tiny bluebells are asleep,
The little birds have ceased to sing.
All nature has lost its brightness to
me;
I listen for you, but all in vain—
I walk alone.
—Lady Emma Louise Phillips.

The appointment of Dr. J. A. McMillan, of this city, as one of the attending physicians in the Freedman's Hospital at Washington, D. C., was indeed an honor bestowed upon a worthy young practitioner, Dr. McMillan left Wednesday night, April 10, to begin his new work. Just the nature of the appointment has not been learned in detail, but it is stated by one of Dr. McMillan's intimate friends that the doctor does not contemplate remaining in the hospital longer than eight or twelve months. His idea for accepting this was to give him a better idea of surgical work, such as can only be secured in a prominent hospital. He has been practicing in this city since he finished from the Meharry Medical College with the class of 1903 and has indeed become a favorite not only in society but with the profession. Mrs. McMillan will remain in the city as she is matron of the model home out at Walden. The many friends of the doctor will regret his departure but will join in wishes for his success. It is not known at this writing just what his future plans are.

MISS JOSIE PRICE IMPROVING.
The health of Miss Josie Price, the
well known musician and instructor
in the Verdi Conservatory, has been
very poor for the past six or eight
months, so much so that she was forced
to suspend the Verdi Chorus, much to’
the regret of the admirers of this or-
ganization. It is learned that within
the past two or three weeks her
health has so rapidly improved until
she has fully decided to begin her
chorus work. It is stated positively
that Monday night a revival of this
work will begin at the Verdi music

DEATH OF REV. J. J. BLACK
SHEAR.
News reached Nashville Tuesday morning of the sudden death of Rev. J. J. Blackshear, who at the time was pastoring the Second Baptist Church at Columbus, Ohio. Rev. Blackshear was possibly one of the most learned men in the Baptist Church, an able as well as an eloquent divine. The telegram received by Dr. E. W. D. Isaac, Secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board, was sent by Rev. L. G. Jordan, of Louisville, Ky., who is Secretary of of the Foreign Mission Board. There was no explanation other than that Rev. Blackshear had been burned to death, thus ending a very brief career as pastor of this noted congregation. This information was received while the Publishing Board was in session. Chairman Clark said an investigation would be made at once. Rev. Blackshear was in Nashville last during the National Convention, which was held in 1899, at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. He was a graduate of Roger Williams University, of the class of 1895, and is therefore well known among the students of the school. He was also pastor for a time of the historic Mt. Zion Baptist Church. It was while pastoring this charge that he was called to the Corinthian Baptist Church at Indianapolis, Ind., where he remained for two or three years. After this he moved to Texas, but decided to go North again. The friends here will join in deep sympathy with the sorrowing family. Messages of condolence will be sent to his brother, Prof. Blackshear, who is principal of the Prairie View State Normal at Prairie View, Texas.
REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING.
The regular monthly meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board was held Tuesday at the rooms of Secretary Boyd at the Publishing House. The out-of-town members were not present, neither was Rev. G. B. Taylor. It was learned that all were detained on account of rush of business or ill-health. Chairman Clark stated that the most important matter under consideration was the missionary work, which was disposed of in the most satisfactory manner. There have been about nine new missionaries placed in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas and Kentucky during the present quarter. No further action was taken at this meeting on the Jamestown exhibit to be made by the Baptists, as this matter had been left in Secretary Boyd's hands. The proposition to make need ed additions to the Publishing House received only little consideration, as the Board is awaiting developments. The meeting adjourned at 11:30 until the next monthly meeting.
