NATES MR. DOCK A. HART, OF NASHVILLE, TENN.,
FOR SECRETARY OF A. M. E. CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION, TO SUCCEED DR. W. D. CHAPPELLE, IN A VERY LOGICAL EDITORIAL—MR. HART IS CAPABLE FOR POSITION.
When the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church meets next year, it is expected that the lay forces of the church will renew their efforts for recognition on the general officiary. The quadrenial assemblages of the best exponent of Negro Methodism have grown to be quite as important as our contemporary meetings, the national conventions, which occur the one year. We say contemporary, because the game of politics is singular evidence at the General Conference. Men are made and unmade, are set and sprung, intrigues made and countered and friend- and ennities are engendered just as these things happen in great conventions of the political es. And if you go down to hard lands and marbles, the preachers and laymen who compose the churchrence have about as much abil- political and otherwise as the aver man who attends the national con- tion. In fact, politics is said to be part of the cult of the A. M. E. Church. This indeed we do know and is when you have an A. M. E.
certain to deal with in politics you may be assured that you are dealing with a politician. Politics is woven in the warp and woof of the A. M. E. orthodox. An A. M. E. preacher who has forgotten the Apostles' Creed may be forgiven, but one who knows not the rudiments of devious political ways and means will forever be unknown to fame.
Nevertheless, the church is not and should not be blamed for its participation in material methods to secure material ends. When a man expects to do anything on earth, prayer will help him wonderfully; but he must not depend entirely upon prayer. He must hustle and keep eternally at it and keep his eye skinned for the main France. This is what the communi- fist of the A. M. E. Church does every time. He learns it in the Sunday- anool, and as all the world loves a en- erer, who is prepared to condemn spectrch of hustlers?
Miring the last twelve years consid-street attention has been given to Shelbuts for office who are laymen. Miss e experiment of employing the ple st in general offices has proven whereby successful, the most con-in talus example being the wonder-past. access made by Prof. H. T. Keal-child editor of the A. M. E. Church Neeley. At the last session of the India Conference, which met in Chilber var. 1904, the desire of the organi-lades to recognize the laty became so Bailey,ent that the Rev. W. D. Chap. a prominent preacher and en-Union secretary of the Sunday-Baptist defeat for re-election to his tion, at the hands of young Ira Mr. want, a mere boy, but who postal been raised in the church and street, infancy had sniffed the peculiar days, here of church politics, which Misses and haloes the heads of all of the church.

stitution ourselves. We do know
NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1907.
from our experience and observation that the fact that a man is able to fill a position there as a compositor does not give him a single qualification for the management of the vast machinery of the publishing concern of the Sunday-school Union. The Government Printing Office is a vast institution, employing five or six thousand men and women, but all of the brains and direction of the affairs of this office are vested in about ten people, and contrary to a prevailing idea among a certain class in the church, young Mr. Ira T. Bryant is not one of them. He is of the ninety and nine, one of the smallest cog-wheels in the machine, the infinitessimal private in the great army, who follows orders and does what he is told to do without knowing why, and who is not expected to know why, and he is not paid to know why.
The fact that a man is a printer does not make him a publisher. As our good friend Banks Campbell recently said: "If you can't ride nothin but a horse, an' I got a mule, yo' aint no use to me." So, the fact that Mr. Bryant is able to fill a job in the Government Office is a mere bagatelle in the consideration of who shall succeed Dr. Chappelle at the Sunday-School Union.
Nevertheless, we think that the disposition of the church to place practical men, who have a knowledge of printing and publishing in charge of its printing and publishing to be a spirit that means good for the church. A man who devotes a life time to acquiring knowledge concerning one line of art should learn something about it even in a young lifetime and such a man should be eligible to take charge of the publishing house of the Sunday-School Union, all other things being equal.
The Morning News happens to know of such a man, and since Col. Henry Waterson has been so successful in astounding the public with a dark horse, we take the liberty of bringing out one for the position of Secretary of the Sunday-school Union. We know a young man, who, like Ira T. Bryant, was born in the church, but who unlike Ira T. Bryant, was not born with the silver spoon of the church in his mouth. Our young man is a trifle older than Bryant and has spent his whole life in the printing business. He is at present superintendent of the manufacturing department of the largest enterprise that the Negroes in the United States have ever set forth to meet profit and loss. He built himself and educated himself, and last year purchased as agent for the purpose of printing Sunday-school and kindred literature white paper to the amount of $30,000. He is directly over 120 colored employees—printers, pressmen, binders, proofreaders, mailers, linotypers, bookkeepers, and has done much to make the great machine that all of these people form efficacious and successful. He is a good Christian and a faithful worker in the A. M. E. Church. The Mergenthaler Company sent for him to come to New York to learn their famous linotype that he might be able to teach the colored printers in the South. He is identified with and developed with the wonderful advance of the art among the colored people in the South. He knows the publishing business thoroughly and knows where the people are and how to reach them. His honesty is religion and his religion is honesty. What member of the cloth has more in orthodox to offer? Why, gracious! angels present no more.
Now, here is our dark 'horse:' He is practical, not only in theory, but in practice; knows more of publishing of Sunday-school literature than any other Negro; has practiced the purchase of printing supplies and is conversant with the whole business from alpha to omega; rings true on church affairs, and is a first-class Christian gentleman.
Accordingly The Morning News arises to commend the great African Methodist Episcopal Church for its recognition of the laity; we say, "Amen," to its desire to practical men to practical affairs, and along this line, we are forced to ask: "What's the matter with Dock Hart, of Nashville, the most brilliant and successful Negro printer in the country?"—Hopkinsville Morning News.
A BRILLIANT AFFAIR.

New Orleans, La., June 26.—New Orleans is to-day welcoming in a most flattering manner the second annual session of the Baptist Sunday School Congress and Young People's Chautauqua. From all appearances to-day New Orleans will be a "Mecca" for Baptist young people during the remaining part of this week. The sessions opened to-day under promising circumstances. Rev. E. D. Sims, the president of the City Ministers' Alliance, and Rev. A. Hubbs, the secretary, have so completely arranged the entire program as well as the ar
rangements for all delegates present, that no complaint whatever can be made. The sessions opened early in the afternoon. The secretary of the Congress, Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn., read the second annual call and pronounced the Congress opened. Rev. C. H. Clark, of Nashville, was asked to preside at the opening session. After Scripture reading by Rev. John Marks, of New Orleans, the choir of fifty voices sang one of Rosborough's beautiful songs from Celestial Showers. No 2. The choir was led and instructed by Profs. Thos. W. J. Tobias and Wm. Pace. Rev. J. H. Fleming, of Gretna, delivered the welcome address on behalf of the churches of the First District Association of Louisiana. Rev. J. M. Young, D. D., of New Orleans, delivered the address on behalf of the city churches and Sunday schools, while Miss Annie Lewis welcomed the delegates on behalf of the State. Responses to the welcome addresses were made by Revs. L. C. Silmon, of Opelousas, La., and Henry A. Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn. Other prominent speakers for the opening session were Drs. Edwards and Isaac, and white ministers of the city. The night session will be devoted to the regular discussion of Sunday school topics with especially prepared song services. A large delegation from Baton Rouge is expected to-morrow morning, the 27th inst., from the joint session of the two State conventions, which adjourn to-night.
WALDEN UNIVERSITY ALUMNI NOTES.
Quite an enjoyable reception was given by the Alumni Association of Walden University at the spacious residence of Mrs. Eddie Dickerson, on North Hill street, in honor of Dr. T. H. Elliot and wife. The house was beautifully decorated with cut flowers and palms, together with Meharry colors. Over the dining-room table hung a large bell with streamers of crimson and black. The bride was becomingly gowned in a light blue silk. A part of the faculty of Walden and Meharry was present, together with Dean Hubbard and wife and Miss M. E. Braden and mother. Much credit is due Miss V. L. Moore for the excellent way in which everything was served.
Much interest is being manifested by the Alumni Association of Walden over the proposed administration building and boys' dormitory. The circulars are now ready and the corresponding secretary, Eddie M. Dickerson, together with Miss V. L. Moore, recording secretary, will see that one reaches every alumnus and friend of the institution.
One needs but look over the campus of Walden to see that new buildings are needed: and as we wish for it to remain a Christian school under the guilding hand of the Freedman's Aid Society, we have had to reject many flattering offers of help from some millionaires. Field agents have already been sent out in the interest of the work.
SUNDAY NIGHT RAID.
The tenement over Kuhn's grocery and saloon, corner of Ninth avenue and Gay street, was raided Sunday night and, according to all accounts, ten or more colored men and women, some of whom are well-known in this city, were arrested and carried to the station house. It is said that the proprietress of the place was bound over to the Criminal Court and in default of bail was sent to jail.
EBENEZER NOTES.
Dr. Hammond, Dean of the Theological Department of Walden University, preached Sunday morning at eleven o'clock. The sermon was inspiring and uplifting to all who heard him. After services, Dr. Hammond, his little son, and our pastor, Rev. N. Smith, were invited to the home of Rev. Wm. Lusk for dinner, where they were highly entertained; from there they went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mathews, on the Murfreesboro road, where they enjoyed a six o'clock tea. Dr. Hammond preached at 7:30 p. m.
The installment of officers of the Allen League on last Wednesday night was a success. Rev. N. Smith spoke words of encouragement. A number of addresses were made by visitors from other leagues of the city and by Rev. T. D. Ledbetter.
The I. C. Circle will organize next Sunday.
Miss Willie Upshaw left Monday morning for Smithville to attend the County Teachers' Institute.
No.25.
THE GAVEL WILL, FALL OPENING NATIONAL CONVENTION.
ALLEN CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORS WILL BE HERE IN FULL FORCE —FIVE THOUSAND DELEGATES EXPECTED—EVERYTHING IN READINESS FOR THE GREAT MEETING.
On Tuesday, July 2, at two o'clock in the afternoon the gavel will fall, calling to order the opening session of the first National Convention of the Endeavor Societies of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, which will convene in the historic St. John A. M. E. Church, corner Cedar street and Eighth avenue, North, for an eight-day session. This will be the first meeting of its kind ever held in the African Methodist Church Connection and great stress is being laid upon it. The nature of the meeting and the manner in which it will be conducted is not a new innovation in church work, but heretofore the A. M. E. denomination has affiliated with the Christian Endeavor Society composed of all denominations, but they have realized long since that these interdenominational meetings were not accomplishing as much for their own church as was desired, and that the work among the young people was suffering for the want of a closer relation between the church and the leaders of the Endeavor work. It was therefore deemed wise to organize a department in the Church with a general secretary, whose duty it would be to devote all of his time to this special feature. Since this department has been organized much good has been accomplished. The young people throughout the Connection have taken to the work with a pride and a determination that bids fair to revolutionize the interest shown heretofore on their part in church work. The organization of societies has progressed so rapidly that it was deemed wise by the secretary of the department to hold a national convention biennially.
A lengthy program has been prepared, and some of the ablest men and women of the race will be here and participate. Every phase of Endeavor work will be discussed. The program as arranged calls for three sessions a day and a special Independence celebration on July the fourth. St. John A. M. E. Church, the seat of the convention, is receiving the finishing touches, and by the last of this week will present an inviting appearance. The pastor, Dr. Haigler, and his members have done a great work in preparing for this meeting. They have worked hard to get ready and are now waiting to receive their guests. The ladies will conduct a restaurant in the basement during the week, where they will serve refreshments day and night. The postoffice and baggage room will be in the vestibule. The ladies' reception and waiting room will be located in the southwest corner, where they can hold committee meetings and transact other matters. The pastor's study will be fitted up for the general committee room.
On Monday night the Endeavor society of St. John will hold a special service to entertain the incoming delegates. An elaborate program has been prepared. The music will be a special feature, consisting of gospel hymns, solos, duets and jubilee music.
SEVERELY BURNED.
Rev. Hardy M. B. Ridley, who resides at 927 Sixteenth avenue, North, a soap-maker by occupation, was severely burned about the head last Friday by the explosion of a large rendering tank at the factory of the Cassetty Oil Co., at the railroad crossing at Sixteenth avenue, North. Though suffering from the accident, it is thought that Mr. Ridley will be able to attend to his duties in two or three weeks. He is a brother of Mr. T. L. Ridley, a pressman at the National Baptist Publishing House.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1907.
CLARKSVILLE NOTES.
The state institute for colored teachers of the middle division of Tennessee has been in session in this city several days. Over one hundred teachers were enrolled, coming from Cheatham, Davidson, Dickson, Hickman, Houston, Montgomery counties of Tennessee, and Lyons, Todd, Trigg and Christian counties of Kentucky. Excellent work is being done and much good will be accomplished. Short and interesting talks were made to the institute last Monday by Bishop C. H. Phillips, Revs. T. J. Goodall and F. J. Coleman. Profs. F. G. Smith and J. B. Batte, of Nashville, and I. B. McCutcheon, of this place are the instructors.
For several days a constant and steady movement of citizens of this place to more congenial realms has been in progress. Not only have the brides and grooms gone, but last Saturday witnessed an excursion to Louisville, which had quite a quota of Clarksville folks, that had secured employment in the Kentucky metropolis, and Sunday a number left for Belleville, Ill., to work in the several industries of that thriving place.
Mr. N. H. Harris, who has conducted a first-class grocery in every respect for a number of months in this city said that as coming events cast their shadows he would not be wise unless he took advantage of time and closed out his business to his advantage and seek a better field. On June 21 he advertised a closing out sale at cost and by the 23rd every available thing in the line of groceries was converted into cash. Mr. Harris is now prospecting in Hopkinsville, Ky.
Twentieth Century Lodge K. of P. held their annual election of officers last Monday night, with the following results: Knights Chas. Hudson, Chancellor Commander; Geo. Kimbrough, Vice Chancellor Commander; Norvel Steele, Prelate; N. R. Kimbrough, Keeper Records and Seal; E. S. Randal, Master of Finance; Jas. Reeves, Master at Arms; L. T. Williams, Master of Works.
The Grand Lodge of Masons met in annual session at Johnson City, Tennessee, last Monday, at which Dr. C. A. Kelly, of this city, was elected Grand Captain-General of the Tennessee Knights Templar and Grand Scribe of Royal Arch Masons.
Miss Minnie Hutchins and Mr. Wm. Jenkins, who made an extended visit to Birmingham, Tuskegee, Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain, returned home last Wednesday.
Dr. E. B. Jefferson and wife, of Nashville, spent Sunday in this city the guest of Dr. Sylvester Jefferson.
Mrs. Clara Ferguson left Sunday for Dawson Springs, Ky.
Mrs. Kate Thompson was in Hopkinsville, Ky., Sunday.
Mr. Kenneth Bluitt of Bowling Green, Ky., spent Wednesday in the city.

Prof. Major Singleton, of Henderson-Ky., is in the city.
Prof. Wm. G. Hynes was in the city last Sunday.
REV. SUTTON E. GRIGGS RETURNS TO CITY.
Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, the celebrated author and lecturer, has returned to the city after an absence of several months. He has been lecturing through the Eastern States in the interest of his books, which bear directly upon the so-called "Negro Problem." He has met with great success from more points of view than merely the selling of a book and collecting the money for the same—in fact, his mission is more far-reaching. Rev. Griggs is a true friend to his race, and his lectures are doing much to establish a true understanding on the part of the North and the South on this all-vexing problem. During his stay in the East he made many friends for the race. He is not an apostle of mission gifts, but rather of equal opportunity. He believes that a man ought to have an equal chance, and if he fails then to hold up his end of the chain, let him drop.
Rev. Griggs will be in the city the best part of the summer and has planned to do an extensive business in the hook line
Miss Cornelia Young entertained in a pleasing manner, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. O. Boyd and Miss Hattie Mal Andrews, of Chattanooga, last Friday, June 21, at her residence, Eighth avenue, North. For the occasion the house was brilliantly lighted and beautifully decorated with cut flowers. A congenial party participated in various games, which afforded much pleasure. Frappe was dispensed by Mrs. Katie Jones Steele. A tempting supper of two courses, including ices, was served, after which the guests were treated to several musical selection by Misses Boyd, McKinney and Stump. Miss Young was assisted in receiving by her mother, Mrs. M. A. Young. Invited to meet the honorees were Mesdames A. B. Carter, Austin Williams of Memphis, Littleton Jones, Misses Hattie Watkins, Virginia Broughton, Fanny Watkins, Ruth McKinney, Laura Stump, Mabel McKay, Georgia Lofton, Fanny Boyd, Gertrude Mayberry, Messrs. Sawyers, Webster, Arthur Greene, A. T. Landers, Fred I. Ewing and Samuel L. Carter.
K. OF P. ARRANGE FOR TRIP.
A meeting of the delegates to the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, was held in the Grand Lodge headquarter at the Pythian Temple, last Friday night. Most of the lodges were represented and matters pertaining to the general good of the Order were freely discussed. Final arrangements were announced for the trip. Special cars have been secured for the accommodation of the delegates and their friends. A very low railroad rate has been secured, allowing stop-over privileges at Chattanooga going and coming, and as a consequence it is expected that a large number of friends will take advantage of the occasion to spend their vacation in the eastern part of the state.
PHYSICIAN ON THE SPOT.
Sunday afternoon as Mrs. Mandy Black, of Louisville, Ky., who was on her way to visit her relatives, the family of Mr. Eli Black, of Ament street, she sustained very painful injuries as the result of a fall from a Kayne avenue car. Dr. G. H. Martin, who happened to be passing, took charge of her and she is now resting easy.
TO REBUILD ROGER WILLIAMS

CARD PARTY.
Mrs. Mattie Woods, of 719 Church Street, entertained last Thursday at a card party in honor of Miss Anna L. Hart, of Shelbyville, Tenn. The house was decorated with cut flowers, which made a very beautiful scene. As the guests arrived they were served champagne.

The County Teachers' Institute convened on Monday at the city school building. Miss Lexie Cope is able to be out after having been indisposed for several days. Mrs. D. T. Burch, who has been quite ill for several days, is still confined to her bed. Mr. W. T. Maupins, of Atlanta, is visiting relatives here.
Bills are being circulated announcing the annual barbecue to be held on the Fourth of July on the beautiful grounds of Clark Chapel M. E. Church.

"GOOD-BYE PARTY."
The Misses Mayberry entertained very informally Monday from 4 to 7 p.m., at their home, 821 Cedar street, in honor of Mr. A. P. Green, of St. Louis, Mo., who has been in the city several weeks the guest of friends and relatives. A limited number of Mr. Green's friends was present, and the affair was a "Good-bye" party, as Mr. Green was on the eve of leaving for his home in St. Louis, Mo. The time was very pleasantly spent in various amusements, after which an ice course with its accessories was served. Expressions of regret were numerous when the hour for parting came, proving that all had a happy time. The party included Misses Mary Lyerson, Eva Green, Georgia Lofton, Mesdames Ida Richardson and Cora Fields; Messrs. A. P. Green, — Richardson, R. A. Ewing and Louis D. Bumbrey. Mr. Green left at 8 p. m. for St. Louis, Mo., expressing himself highly pleased with his visit to Nashville.

WILL THE SHERIFF ACT?
The deputy sheriffs of Davidson County can scent a Negro crap game twelve miles in the country but seemingly know or can find no evidence of bawdy houses run by Negro women for white men. Sheriff Johns in his ante-election promises said that he would play no favorites in enforcing the law. He put the lid on the Sunday saloon, whether its owner operated a gilded palace or a corner grog shop. Now let him still further show his consistency by prodding his deputies into closing these disreputable houses where white men meet Negro women. The conditions would not be permitted for one hour were the racial equation reversed.
We do not ask that Sheriff Johns put himself to the trouble of exposing the "respectable" men guilty of things indicated in these columns last week. It would be asking too much. We fear that he would balk if he found such things as are currently reported to be true. But we do think that if he will train the scenting faculties of his deputies so that they can detect social crimes within three miles of the county court house with the same accuracy as a crap game twelve miles away, and will have these officers gently remind the offenders (if they find the the parties to the affair are too "respectable" to be arrared for consorting with Negro women), that they are violating the law, a needed reform will be accomplished peacably.
PROPOSED CANDIDATE.
There is another Richmond in the field. Another candidate placed before the Connection as a successor to Rev. W. D. Chappelle in the event that reverend gentleman is elevated to the bishopric by the A. M. E. Church. The Morning News, of Hopkinsville, Ky., following the lead of its illustrious contemporary, The Courier-Journal, of Louisville, the editor of which brought out and has been successful in keeping him so, a dark horse for the democratic presidential nomination, arises to place a candidate for the consideration of what he seems to consider the greatest political body among the Negroes in America, the A. M. E. Church. Unlike the erudite Watterson, though, the brilliant Brown does not keep his horse in the dark. At the close he announces as his candidate our fellow townsman, the superintendent of the big printing plant of the National Baptist Publishing Board and the business manager of The Globe Publishing Company, Mr. Dock A. Hart.
Mr. Hart is too well known in church and business circles of this city to need encomiums from us. He has spent the major portion of his life in this city and its environs. He has seen to his present commanding po-
sition by sheer force of character, and if ability for managing large affairs be taken into consideration, he is as well fitted, if not better prepared to fulfil the duties incumbent upon one in such a position than any other member of the O. M. E. Connection.
Knowing Mr. Hart's capabilities as we do, and without consulting his wishes in the matter, we second his nomination for the secretaryship of the A. M. E. Church Sunday School Union.
THE KENTUCKY CONVENTION.
The Taft boom had a reef taken in its sail by the action of the Kentucky State republican convention last week. Though the Taft men claimed that they were in control of the convention they were unable to get a specific endorsement for their man. They take comfort in the fact, though, that the convention declared for a man who represented the Roosevelt policies. Even this declaration was modified by the amendment that it did not refer to any certain man.
Taft is popular with the whites in the South. Almost as popular since the Brownsville incident, as Theodore Roosevelt himself and it was to be expected that the federal office-holders who are trying to keep in touch with the White House, and have so frequently declared that next to the President himself. Taft was their choice, would have been able to swing this border state into line for the Ohioan. But Brownsville proved too great a load for Peaceful Bill. Kentucky feared the Negro vote.
Secretary Cortelyou has another race problem on his hands. These Negro boys, with the effrontery of their kind, continue to pass the civil service examination with higher marks than their white competitors and the appointing powers not knowing their color, continue to appoint them to positions in the governmental service. Another has broken into one of the departments as a draughtsman. Two in this one department within a year was more than one of the clerks could stand; so he started a race war. It is a pity they took the colored boy off. Cortelyou was a clerk at one time and it will not be hard to guess what he will do in the case.
Is it to laugh! Superintendent Webber, of the public schools, draws the color line and the birth-place line in recommending a teacher for the manual training department of the colored schools. The man selected, so far as we know, is an excellent young man and is capable of filling the position. But the questions "where was he born" and "what is his color" should, of rights, had no consideration in his selection. The only thing to have been taken into consideration was: Is he the best that can be secured for the money?
Foraker made a great speech at Wilberforce last week. He urged his hearers, almost all of whom were colored, not support any man or party that did not come out flat-footed against the effort being made to abridge Negro suffrage. It sounded like old times. But how strange it seems to hear an Ohio politician speak right out in meeting! It seems so different from the McKinley's, Taft's and other soda water statesmen from that state.
THE LAST CHANCE.
The Baptist Missionary and Educational Union will hold its last meeting before the State Convention Friday, July 5, at 3 o'clock p. m. at Mt. Olive Baptist Church.

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE.
The third quarterly conference was held last Sunday at the Palestine C. M. E. Church, Woodlawn, by Rev. W. Conway Smith, presiding elder of the Clarksville District, Tennessee Annual Conference. Rev. Mr. Smith preached an instructive sermon. He organized the Epworth League Chapter, with the following officers, viz.: Rev. J. W. Manson, president; W. H. Jones, first vice president; second vice president, Mrs. Susie Warfield; third vice president, Miss Rebecca Giles; fourth vice president, Miss Louise Johnson; fifth vice president, Mrs. Lizzie Jones. This league is called the Bernice Chapter, after Miss Bernice Carrie Smith, the daughter of Presiding Elder Smith.
Rev. J. W. Manson was elected delegate to the District Conference which will meet at Springfield from July 24 to 28. Miss Rebecca Giles was elected delegate to the Epworth League Convention which meets with the District Conference at Springfield; Miss Louise Johnson and Miss Everlene Salle were elected delegates to the Woman's Missionary and Sunday School Convention, which meets at Steel's chapel, two miles West of Cumberland City, August 21 to 25; Mrs. Lizzie to the Woman's Missionary Convention.
Miss Louise Johnson, Lillian B. Johnson, Ora White, Willa May Dabney, and Mrs. Mary Cecil Bell are attending the state teachers' institute at Clarksville, Tenn.
Mrs. T. R. Ledford and Earnest Norflet are also attending the state institute.
OFF TO THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
CONGRESS AND YOUNG PEOPLE'S CHAUTAUQUA.
The Nashville delegates to the second annual session of the National Baptist Sunday School Congress and Young People's Chautauqua which is in session in New Orleans, left for that city Tuesday. Most of the delegation went via the N., C. & St. L. Railway to Fulton, Ky., and from thence over the I. C. to New Orleans. Those in the party were Revs. C. H. Clark, of Mt. Olive Church; G. B. Taylor, of the Second Baptist Church; J. L. Harding, of the North Third Avenue Baptist Church; E. W. D. Isaac, secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board; Dr. R. H. Boyd of the National Baptist Publishing Board; Henry Allen Boyd, Mrs. R. H. Boyd, little Katie Albertine Boyd and Rev. W. S. Ellington, pastor of the First Baptist Church. The party was joined at Jackson, Tenn., by some of the West Tennessee delegates, and at points in Mississippi and Louisiana by the Louisiana delegates. The entire week will be spent in New Orleans in the big Sunday school movement.
IN HONOR OF THEIR PASTOR.
The Second Baptist Church, at the corner of Deluge and Stevens streets, gave a reception in honor of their pastor, Rev. G. B. Taylor, last Monday night. The reception was given, as Rev. Taylor was about to leave for the Sunday School Congress and Young People's Chautauqua at New Orleans. The ladies of the church had especially prepared a real up-to-date entertainment. They invited as guests of honor and speakers on the occasion Drs. R. H. Boyd, C. H. Clark, E. W. D. Isaac, Revs. J L. Harding and Henry A. Boyd. The pastors of the city who were invited were the special guests for the occasion. Rev. Taylor left Tuesday at 2:15 p. m. with a special delegation for New Orleans.
PROF. ALLEN, OF LINCOLN UNI-
VERSITY.
Prof. Allen, principal of the Lincoln Institute at Jefferson City, Mo., passed through Nashville last Friday morning en route South. Prof. Allen was seen by a Globe reporter as he alighted from a St. Louis train. He was looking well, and when approached by the Globe man at first did not seem to remember him, notwithstanding they met in Savannah, Ga., last July. When asked his destination he stated that he was just making a general tour southward, after having had a successful year at the school in Missouri. He contemplated visiting many cities in Georgia, his native state. He did not know whether he would return via Nashville or not, but wanted to, if possible. He asked about Walden University, Fisk University and the possibilities of the rebuilding of Roger Williams. As he and the Globe man stood on the Broadway viaduct he was pointed out the three buildings of Fisk University that were plainly visible from this point. Only having thirty minutes in the city, it was impossible for him to leave the station on an inspecting tour.

PRESENTATION AT LEA AVENUE CHURCH.
Sunday morning at Lea Avenue Church little Misses Lillian Cooper and Ethel M. Ferrell were awarded prizes for selling a large number of tickets for the entertainment given recently. Miss Cooper really won the prize, but the pastor gave the little Ferrell girl a little necklace just like the one the other little girl won. This was done because little Ethel sold such a large number, and also to encourage her. The Reds and Blues, two clubs of the church, presented the church Sunday morning with a purse of $65.60, which was raised at their last entertainment. These same clubs are planning to have another entertainment on the fourth Monday night of next month. They hope to raise enough to pay the church entirely out of debt so it can be dedicated in August, on the anniversary of the beginning of the pastorate of Rev. Preston Taylor.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1907.
M.
REV. JAMES GRISWOLD MERRILL, D. D., President Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.
The fine commencement exercises of Fisk University, accentuated very strikingly the policy of the school and the character of the man who is now its president. Of course, Dr. Merrill is blessed with a strong faculty, who exert their splendid abilities harmoniously with that of the president (a thing devoutly to be hoped for in all schools), but the South, and particularly the Negro, both are to be congratulated that such a man as James Griswold Merrill is giving his life as president of Fisk University.
was enough to overwhelm man. It must be reme Cravath established that was largely responsible. The faculty, stud and the Negro race low public honored him, an nature never made in Cravath.
Then, Dr. Merrill w to the work of educati having spent more than century in the pastor and New England, but
Dr. Merrill came to Fisk in 1899 as Dean of the College Faculty and upon the death of that great and good man, Erastus M. Cravath, was made president. The qualities that appear most strikingly in him are his rugged manhood, his courage, and his strict adherence to the principle of the "Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man."
From the principle of action, which seems clearly set forth by his life, he has not deviated since he took up the work here in Nashville, and the result is shown in the progress the University has been making. True it is, that some of his utterances have brought blim into controversy with some of our Southern friends, but it is to his eternal credit, that he stood the test like a man, and by the deepest and best people of the city he is held in high esteem a man.
Taking up the work just after such a masterful personality as Dr. Cravath
SMYRNA NOTES.
Rev. C. Gardiner-preached for Rev. B. G. Strong in the rally last Sunday. A goodly number of people were present from far and near. Mr. J. B. Ridley was with us Sunday and conducted the review in the Sunday school. Mrs. Mary Baker professed religion at home last week. Mrs. Eliza White Eskridge was hurried near Lavergne last week.
The remains of Mrs. Wallace Owen were brought up from Nashville Sunday morning and buried by the M. A. Society of which he was a member. The funeral sermon was preached by the pastor of the M. E. Church, Rev. Mr. Floor in the presence of a large crowd. Mr. Owen had been taken to the city a few days before to have an operation performed. He leaves a wife and two grown sons. Mrs. B. A. Darden and Miss S. L. Battle, of Sand Hill, have been quite sick but are improving. Miss Isabella Beaty returned to the city Monday to spend a few weeks. Mrs. J. I. Wade and Miss E, M. Perry were elected by the Sunday school last Sunday as delegates to the Sunday School Convention to be held at Earleville in August.
Mrs. Amanda Jones and little daughter are visiting relatives near Jeffer son this week.
DICKSON NOTES.
The Dickson County Institute closed Friday after a two weeks' successful session. There were about thirty-five teachers in attendance. Examination was held Friday by the County Superintendent.
The teachers rendered an excellent program Friday night at St. James A. M. E. Church.
Miss Lottie Roane was given in marriage Sunday to Mr. Ernest Watkins. Messrs. Emerson, Gentry Bell and Theodore Grant Walker are spending this week near Pinewood fishing.
Mr. Herby Childress, who has been attending school at Wilberforce University, returned home yesterday.
Mr. Henry Rainey and son have returned from Indianapolis.
Miss Easter Lowe, of Centerville, is visiting friends here this week.

was enough to overwhelm almost any man. It must be remembered that Dr. Cravath established the school and was largely responsible for what it was. The faculty, students, graduates, and the Negro race loved him, and the public honored him, and justly so, for nature never made many men like Cravath. Then, Dr. Merrill was entirely new to the work of education of the Negro, having spent more than a quarter of a century in the pastorate in the West and New England, but his good sense and right-heartedness solved the situation. He was willing to learn, and always tried to be fair to everybody. There are more expert educators technically speaking, that President Merrill, but there are no fairer ones.
As far as we have been able to learn, Dr. Merrill's interest in the education of the Negro springs not from a love of the Negro as a Negro, but from the love of the Negro as one of God's children; and this is simple Christianity. His life is a benediction upon us, and it is rather unfortunate that he cannot spend more time at the University, but it seems necessary at present that he spend much time seeking funds for the school. It would be a greater help to our city folk if when the president is in town he could spend more time preaching and speaking among our churches and other gatherings. We hope for a long, long life for President Merrill and his work at Fisk.
Elaborate preparations are being made or the Fourth of July celebration. Dr. J. A. Jones, President of the Turner Normal, will lecture here Tuesday night in the interest of his school, Miss Flora Hardin, the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Hardin will entertain a few friends Thursday evening at her home on Charlotte avenue.
COOKING DEMONSTRATIONS. The cooking demonstrations by Miss Elizabeth Moore for the Nashville Gas Co., at 1509 Church street, came to a very satisfactory close last Friday. There had been given to each one who attended these demonstrations a numbered ticket, there being one of a corresponding number placed in a box. Last Friday at the close of the demonstration the prizes were awarded. There was called from the audience a little girl, Miss Connie Mai King, of 1616 Patterson street, who drew from the box the prize tickets. The first prize, a gas oven, was secured by Miss Pattie Dawson; the second, a gas iron, by Mrs. C. V. Roman, of Hardee street; the third, a drop gas lamp, by Mrs. Oglelsby.
The demonstrations have been going on all this week at the Lea Avenue Christian Church. The Gas Company intends giving demonstrations at the different churches of the city.

GIANTS .WON IN NINTH .INNING
Amid a Tumult of Excitement, Local Team Got Away.
Nashville, Tenn., June 25.—Without a single score credited to either side and which seemed to have been a ten innings game, was the condition of things Tuesday at Athletic Park, until Johnson came to the bat in the ninth. Two men being out with Holden on second, Johnson swatted a drive over short which enabled Holden to score for the locals.
Hamilton was invincible on the slab, allowing only a few hits and handing out just one free pass. The game was snappy and full of excitement, being the best played thus far in Athletic Park. Both pitchers did well. Fuller details found in the following:
Giants: A.B. B. H. P.O. A. E.

Summary: Two base hits—Boone, Sublette, Johnson. Sacrifice hits—Hamilton, McFarlin, Holden. Double play—Hurt to King to Sublette. First base on balls—Pringles, hit by pitched ball, McFarlin. Struck out by Hamilton, 5; by Meyers, 1. Time, 2:15. Umpire, Rubber.
The game Wednesday between the above mentioned teams turned out to be a battle between the pitchers, Hamilton of New Orleans, and Sublette of the Standard Giants, the latter getting the decision at the end of the Fifteenth inning. Score, 4:3.
***
DIAMOND DUST
That drive of Johnson in the ninth did the work. So it may be said that we have a pinch hitter, too.
Say, that fellow Holden runs like an auto in disguise.
The New Orleans boys play good, clean ball, but they lacked just a little bit of scoring. Too bad! Come again, boys.
The game of Monday played to a tie is to be laid aside when you think of of the game Tuesday.
What is the matter with Hamilton? Why, Meyers is all right, all right!
The New Orleans team will on its return home play, if the weather permits, at the following places: Columbia, Tenn.; Decatur, Ala.; Birmingham, Ala., and Macon, Ga.
Watkins as a catcher is in a class by himself.
Sublett has at last come to or has decided that he would knock out a few bingles.
Fisher, the center fielder for the National Baptist team, is a product of New Orleans, and he met some of his old time chums.
LELAND GIANTS DEFEAT ATHLETICS AT AUBURN PARK WITH SCORE OF 1 to 0.
The Leland Giants and the Athletics played eleven innings at Auburn Park, in all of which but one run was scored. The colored men finally won by a score of 1 to 0. In the last half of the eleventh Rose, who was substituting for Booker, got a Texas leaguer, Gatewood following with a high one, which McParland muffed. With two out Winston broke up the game with a line drive to left. Mager's single spoiled Gatewood's chance for a no-hit game. McPartland and Talbert starred in the fielding.
Line up: Leland G's—Winston, 1f; Harris, 2b; Payne, c.f.; Talbert, 3b; Moore, 1b; Foster, r.f.; Rose, c; Gatewood, p; Wright, s.s. Athletics—Andrews, r.f.; McPartland, 2b; Parker, c.f.; Dooley, 1b; Black, 3b; Parker, If; Hughes, c; Magers, s.s.; Sykes, p.
Summary: Two base hits—Talbert,
Winston. Double plays—McPartland-
Magers; Dooley-McPartland. Struck out—By Gatewood, 8; by Sykes, 5.
