THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. "All things come to them that wait, providing they hustle while they wait."—Charles W. Anderson. "Get out of our sunshine."—R. H. Boyd. VOL. II. IMMIGRATION, AN ARCHISM, CRIME FOREIGNERS BRING WITH THEM THEORIES OF THEIR OWN Which are Incompatible with Our Form of Government. NEW YORK AND CHICAGO DELU- GED WITH CRIME—RESULT OF GOVERNMENT'S FOLLY IN ITS POLICY OF UNINTERRUPT- ED AND INDISCRIMINATE INFLUX OF IMMIGRATION—SOUTH DESIRES TO SUPPLANT THE NEGRO WITH THESE ANARCHISTIC FOREIGNERS. For years foreign immigrants have poured in one continuous stream to the shores of America, until to-day millions of people not native to the soil form a startling per cent of its population. These immigrants have come from every country of the Old World. They have brought with them their customs, their crude mode of thinking, their deferred or shattered hopes, their animosities and their anarchistic tendencies; they have come to better their conditions in this boasted land of freedom and of plenty, or wreck organized society and pour the "milk of sweet concord into hell;" they have come to realize their hopes or blot out the hopes of others. The bulk of this immigration is made up of the riffraff of the countries from which it came. The majority of these people when they landed could not speak the language of the country in which they came to dwell; they had no well-defined conception of the government of the people, nor of their modes nor customs; they had heard Utopian stories of the grandeur and freedom of the so-called "land of the free and home of the brave," and they came with the most extravagant dreams and hopes which were destined never to be realized or fulfilled. When these foreign hordes become disillusioned and their dreams fail of realization and their hopes shattered, reaction sets in and they look upon all forms of organized government as inimical to their best interest. Their anarchistic propensity is fanned aflame and all kinds of crimes and atrocities follow in its wake. These immigrants have as a whole gravitated toward the great centers of industry—the large cities—until they have congested the labor market. This has necessitated the idleness of thousands upon thousands of these foreign people, and idleness, without any means of support, is a breeder of some form of crime. These people sought the shores of America to better their conditions and finding the status of things of such a nature as to frustrate the realization of their hopes, they become the victims of their environments and straightened circumstances and easily merge into the commission of crime. They must have sustenance by fair or foul means New York and Chicago are reeking in atrocities; they are staggering, like a drunken man who cannot find his way, under the most overwhelming wave of crime ever known in their history. The authorities cannot only not cope with it, but they seem powerless to even check it. Nearly every portion of these great metropolises furnish daily its quota of victims. Women and children, and even men, stand horror-stricken in the face of these continued crimes and the powerlessness of the authorities to stamp out their further commission. The government has for years tolerated an almost uninterrupted influx of foreign immigration, and now the reaction of this folly has set in, and heaven only knows when, where and how it will end. When these crime-inoculated foreign hordes shall by force of necessity be compelled to take up their abode in other sections of this country and in the rural districts, they will carry with them their envenomed hatred for this government and its institutions as well as the virus of anarchy and crime. These immigrants are not divorced from their ideas of government as instilled in them in their native lands, and the principle of self-government, as defined in this country, is, with them, a baseless fabric and a dream—an impossible theory. The South, with her antagonism to the Negro, her most loyal friend and productive factor, has been clamoring for these foreigners, begging them to come and take his place in her corn, NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1907. cotton and rice fields and other industries. She has long desired to supplant the Negro with the foreigners flocking to this country. But they have refused to come to her open and outstretched arms, despite her flattering offers and inducements. But when they do come, after being driven out of New York, Chicago and the other great congested centers, and fill up the hamlets, villages, towns and cities of the South, she will have a problem on her hands beside which her so-called Negro problem will pale into insignificance. It will be the problem of anarchism; it will be the problem of life and death, such as New York and Chicago are futilely wrestling with to-day; it will be a problem, which will take the combined strength of all her native people, black and white, to successfully cope with. Let those who wish be skeptical, yet He who controls the destiny of men is going to work out the salvation of the Negro here, and acceptably, here where he was brought without the least thought as to whether he wanted to come or not. Steadily and surely the plans of a great, uncontrolable destiny is unfolding, and when it shall have been consummated the Negro will be there right side up with care. COLORED CHILDREN PARDONED OUT OF PENITENTIARY BY GOV. PATTerson. By the unprecedented clemency of Gov. Patterson the following lads (mere children who should have been in a reformatory) were turned out of the penitentiary this week. Will Robertson, Franklin county, age 10 years. Willie Duncan, age 13 years, Davidson County. Prince Munford, age 14 years, Davidson County. Lawrence Lockhart, age 11 years, Shelby County. Tom Brown, age 13 years, Davidson County. Sam Henderson, age 13 years, Shelby County. Frank Prewitt, age 13 years, Davidson County. Clifton Winston, age 11 years, Knox County. Lee Clayton, age 11 years, Shelby County. Johnson Jennings, age 13 years, Knox County. Lee Robinson, age 14 years, Montgomery County. These colored boys, with almost as many young white men, whose ages ranged from 15 to 18 years, were given another chance this week by Gov. Patterson to make amends as far as that is possible for the errors of their past. The Governor after having these young fellows assemble in his presence gave them some strong, sterling advice, admonishing them never to come back to prison. He counseled them to make up their minds to go again into the world determined to walk the paths of right and fulfil the duties of wholesome citizenship. While the action of the Governor in pardoning the colored lads along with the young white men is commendable, yet it is an unfortunate thing that the State has not made any provision for a reformatory school for the child-criminals of its colored population. CHARMING VISITOR FROM LOU- ISVILLE One of the most charming visitors of Nashville of the whole summer season is Miss Lillian B. Haydon, of Louisville, who is the guest of Prof. and Mrs. F. G. Smith and their daughter, Miss Edwina. Miss Haydon has proven a general favorite among the young society element and she has been the recipient of many social courtesies during her stay in the city. In the company of Miss Smith, Miss Haydon has been escorted to many of the places of interest in and around the city. Miss Haydon is to spend two weeks in the city. OWENSBORO CHAUTAUQUA. The Negro Chautauqua at Owensboro was well attended and quite a success. Woman's Day, which was August 2, was the red letter day, for fully one thousand people were in attendance to hear the address of Miss Vera Lee Moore, a teacher of Walden University. She handled her subject, The Inherent Power of Influence, with matchless ability. The daily papers of Owensboro were loud in their praise of her appeal to the mothers concerning the training of their boys and girls. Miss Moore did not fail to put in a plea for Walden University and the new dormitory for boys. DAVIDSON COUNTY TEACHERS APPOINTED. Twenty-Two Districts are Represented—Salaries Rated.

She will visit Niagara Falls, New York, Washington, Norfolk and other cities. Mrs. Tyndall was accompanied by her little daughter, Beatrice. FAREWELL RECEPTION. Mrs. Anna Berry, of 1008 Fourth avenue. North, gave a farewell reception last week in honor of Mrs. Emma Bostick, who left last Saturday for Chicago. Mrs. Berry was highly entertained by the members of Payne Chapel choir, of which she has been a member for the past five years. There was a season of social conversation, which those present appeared to enjoy, after which ices and cake were served. Those present were Mesdames Emma Bostick, Maggie Winstead, Anna Berry, Misses Sara E. Flagg, Viola Flagg, Mattie Webster, Mattie Vaulx, Mr. G. R. O. Grady, chorister, Dennis Forest, I. J. Rogan, Geo.

From 3:30 to 7:30 the little folks enjoyed themselves by playing different games in a tent in Miss Hoolbrooks' yard. Cakes and ices were served by Miss Katherine Steele and Mr. Donalson Merrill. Those present were little Misses Aleen Hall, Alberta Watkins, Roberta Dickerson, Ruth Ushaw, Lillian Perkins, Alice Jackson, — Dungey, — Davis, Mayetta Allison, Ruth Lape, Iva Mal Dickerson, Susie Berry and Consulla Merrill.

The effacement of Corea, the Hermit Kingdom, or rather its absorption by Japan, is a sad fate for a race of people who have had their separate and distinct form of government in their own country for many hundreds of years. But the mission of Prince Tylong Oul and Yi Sang Sul, Corea's two rejected representatives at the Hague Peace Conference, to the United States to enlist her interference with the Japanese program and save to them and their people their country, is destined to be a fultile one. For the United States has troubles of its own with that "little giant" of the Far East which are causing her a good deal of solicitude. She knows if she knocks the chip off the shoulder of Japan, she is up against a tough proposition. The two Corean representatives, who are now in this country, may be fondled and petted out of sympathy, but that is the utmost extent to which those in authority will go. The fate of Corea is the fate of Hawaii and the Philippines. The handwriting is on the wall, and eventually the flat will go forth and the inevitable will take place. Washington in his Farewell Address warned his countrymen against entangling foreign alliances, but our latter-day statesmen have disregarded that warning, and in the possession of the Philippines they have the ominous White Elephant on their hands, and just as the United States took Hawaii from the Negro Queen and her subjects, Japan is going to take these islands from the United States. Mark the prediction. SURPRISE PARTY. A most pleasant surprise party was held Tuesday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harding, on Jackson street, in honor of Mesdames Simpson and Jones, of Colorado. Both instrumental and vocal music were enjoyed by all. Those present were Mrs. Ella Simpson, of Oakland, Cal.; Mrs. Maurice Jones, of Berkley, Cal.; Mrs. Sallie Harding, Mrs. W. A. Hadley, Misses Mattie Woodson, Willa, Jennie, Alberta Hadley, Lavinia McLemore, Georgia Connell, Sadie Harding, Messrs, H. M. Harding, F. E. Dickerson, G. W. Frazier. Mesdames Simpson and Jones are expected to leave the city next week for Montgomery and other important points in the South. FOOD FOR THOUGHT. In these days when everything to eat is so high and getting higher it is refreshing to know that one can produce one's own food supply. A certain lady on Jo Johnston avenue, has eighteen hens and during the month of July they laid for her 113 eggs. Think of that, you good citizens who are giving the market man all your hard earnings. NOTICE. The remains of Roberta E. Mitchell will be removed from Greenwood Cemetery Saturday morning at eight o'clock and placed in the family lot at Mt. Ararat Cemetery. The anniversary service will be held in the chapel of the Catholic School, Stevenson avenue, at half-past six o'clock a. m. No.31. FLORIDA INSTITUTE AT LIVEOAK WHERE COLORED BOYS AND GIRLS MIGHT BE EDUGATED Was Established by Friends Nearly Thirty Years Ago. MRS. KENNEY NOW AT WORK TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE ERECTION OF ADEQUATTE BUILDINGS FOR THE ACCOMMODATION OF THE INCREASING ATTENDANCE OF PUPILS—FIRST DOMESTIC SCIENCE CONFERENCE FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS TO BE HELD OCT. 7. Mrs. Maria C. Kenney, of this city, is traveling extensively in the North and West in the interest of the Florida Institute at Liveoak, Fla., in Swanee County, near the famous Swanee Springs, on Swanee River. The school was established nearly thirty years ago by friends from the North, and still receives aid from the American Baptist Home Mission Society. The buildings and equipments are entirely inadequate for this rapidly growing school of nearly four hundred students. Through Mrs. Kenney a new feature has been added to the school—a Domestic Science Conference for women and girls of the state, of every age and condition. The first conference is to be held Oct. 7. She has been asked to call a Farmers' Conference at the same time where Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Dr. C. T. Walker, Prof. Charles Stewart and other leading men and women are expected to be present. At this meeting such subjects as the Bible, Purer Literature in the Homes, Morality, Heredity, Temperance, Economy, Better Homes, Dignity of Labor, Divorce, Good Citizenship, Rearing of Children, Good Manners in the Streets and other Public Places, How to Help Our Young Men and Women. Everything pertaining to the uplift of the home and church, besides the subjects coming directly under the head of Domestic Science. As soon as the new building can be had, the Conference will be extended into a few weeks, where the lecture course will be given. Applications have already been made from women past sixty. Mrs. Kenney has been given a warm reception everywhere. Boston has asked her to establish the work there. It is believed that this plan of work will do more to uplift the women of the race than any that has been suggested. MISS EMMA STONE AT TUSKE GEE, ALA. Miss Emma Stone, who left the city a few weeks ago to accept a position as pharmacist at Tuskegee, is meeting with great success. The night of Meharry commencement Prof. B. T. Washington offered her the position and at that time she refused, thinking she had rather go to Pulaski, but Prof. Washington continued to send for her, so she decided to accept. Miss Stone was the only young lady that passed the state Board. ACCUSED OF SERIOUS CHARGE Abe Sanders, who is accused of attempted criminal assault at 205 Seventeenth avenue, North, Wednesday night, was bound over to the Criminal Court from the Police Court and sent to jail Thursday afternoon.

Townsend, pastor of Spruce Street Baptist Church, who was arrested here last week and taken ‘to Memphis on a charge filed against him there several months ago for car- ‘rying an unlawful weapon, has been ‘given an unreasonable fine and penal sentence. Courts of justice are not ‘eriticised when they fulfil the end for which they were created, that of Meting out reward or punishment com- Mensurate with justice; but when they degenerate to the level of perse- eution, they cease to fulfill their mission. _ Rey. Dr. Townsend, some time ago, in that very town in which he is now iprisoned, said some very compli- mentary things of the women of his without disparagement of the omen of any other race. His utter- es, it is said, were distorted by le one and reported to the white le, who took umbrage at what the v. Dr. Townsend said. Is it not ible that the feeling engendered mn is not at the bottom of the ex- t-of-the-law sentence imposed won im now? _ COLORED COOKS BUNCOED. “Many colored cooks throughout the ty have been successfully bunchoed by white confidence men (thieves), 0 claimed that they were represent- ves of “The National Association of Negro House Maids and Cooks.” The two “slick ducks” glibly told their colored victims what great benefits there were to be derived from member- ship in the association organized for their protection and welfare. How long will it be before colored men. and women will cease to be the recipients of slick white men’s “lemons?” —— WEST NASHVILLE DISTRICT CON- FERENCE.

The ceremonies were conducted by Rev. Bishop B. F. Lee, assisted by Rev. W. D. Chappelle, D. D. The keys of the church were presented by W. A. Anderson at the door; then headed by the Bishop and Dr. Chappelle, the minister, trustees, steward and stewardess marched in order up the aisle, the ministers occupying seats within the altar. The officers were seated in the front pews. ‘After the choir had sung “I was glad” Rey, W. D. Chappelle offered the prayer of consecration; the choir sang “Let Mount Zion arise;” the Bishop announced his text, and the congregation showed its appreciation py listening attentively to every word that came from his lips. At 3 p. m. they reassembled to lis: to Dr. Welch, who held his hearers spellbound to the end and every word was as burning fire. At 8 p. in, Dr. J. A. Jones closed the day service with a powerful sermon his text being Matthew 11:3: “Ar thou the Christ, or do we look for an other?” The sermon was very effect ive. This service closed one of the great est events in the history of Bethe A, M, EB, Church, and one long to b remembered. MR. AND MRS. BOWLING ENTER: TAIN.

A REMARKABLE HAPPENING. The Dallas Express, commenting upon a paragraph which appeared in these columns recently, in which we said: "How remarkable! A white car conductor shot two white men who interfered with a colored passenger" on a West Nashville car! We doff our hats to this exceptional conductor," expresses the following opinion: "We cannot see the justice of the Globe's contention and rejoicing. The Express does not approve of any species of lawlessness, whether committed for or against the negro. Lawlessness is blind and cannot see afar off, and when anyone stands off hissing it on, just because he is not the victim of its heartless visitations, he will live to have his own experiences interpret truthfully the proverbial old statement "Laughing is catching." Let us, if we would demand it for ourselves, be fair in all things with the white man as with the negro." The Express is wrong. The Globe does not sympathize with lawlessness and is always ready to condemn unlawful acts whether committed by blacks or whites. But we do applaud men who in their course of duty put their lives in jeopardy to uphold the law. And especially do we feel like praising a white man when he risks his life to see that injustice is not done to a Negro. If the Express knew the facts in the case to which our paragraph referred, we believe it would not be such a mollycoddle as to give vent to the expression "Laughing is catching." For the benefit of our Texas contemporary we will give the details of the altercation as published in the daily papers Succinctly stated the facts appear to be as follows: A woman of our race was seated in the rear portion or what is commonly known as the "jim crow" section of a West Nashville car. She was attending her own business. Two white men boarded the car and tried to force her from the seat which she was occupying. The conductor, seeing that the women was clearly within her rights, ordered them to desist. This they refused to do and even made a second attempt to remove her. The conductor then stopped his car and put the two men off. So incensed were the men that they fired at the street car official, to which he promptly responded, wounding both of the self-appointed enforcers of the "jim crow" law. It may be different in Texas, but here it is so far out of the ordinary that a street car conductor will protect a female passenger of our race when she is conforming to all the requirements of the "jim crow" law, that one example excites our wondor and approbation. We can see no element of lawlessness in the conductor defending his life. He simply did what any one with a spark of manhood in him would do and we hope that his tribe will so increase that the "jim crow" car law, if it remains upon the statutes, will be enforced with as much vigor upon one race as upon another, and that women, while on cars, will be protected from rowdies, no matter to what race they may belong. GOVERNOR PATTERSON Gov. Patterson, whose heart seems to be in the right place and full of love for his fellow-man, made a record this week for pardoning criminals. Wednesday he extended executive clemency to 38 convicts, eighteen of whom were under sixteen years of age. There is a remote possibility that Mr. Patterson may have erred in turning out a few convicted men who had active friends on the outside to bring every influence to bear for their release, but this act, wherein he goes personally and inspects the records of the friendless; examines the confirmed invalids, and turns loose these unfortunates, together with eighteen boys, who ought never to have been permitted to enter a penitentiary, can not be criticised by any right thinking man. Governor Patterson in many respects is proving one of the most fair-minded Governors this state has ever had. THE MISSISSIPPI PRIMARY The Mississippi primary for the nomination of a successor to Senator Money, whose term expires in 1909, seems to be on the verge of ending in a wrangle. The democrats have become so inured to stuffing ballot boxes and intimidating Negro voters in that state that when they have a little election all to themselves, they seem to think that the same methods are followed. The Vardaman following accuse the Williams forces of trickery and vice versa. Unexpected to almost every one outside of Mississippi, John Sharp Williams has a small majority on the face of the returns. The rabid program followed by Vardaman in his discussion of the race question, which was the paramount issue, had given forth the impression that Mississippi, like other Southern states, would elevate the radical in preference to the conservative. But it appears that that state, following the lead of Tennessee, has decided to keep its "brilliant," but erratic statesman at home for a season. If the Mississippi primary has nominated John Sharp Williams, it is to be congratulated only in that it has chosen the lesser of two evils. Williams is a semi-conservative on all questions, treating almost everything which he discusses with the levity that one would expect from a professional humorist. He does not hate the Negro, he says, nor does he hate the rattlesnake, but with a smirk of humor, he adds, "I fail to see why God created either." Yet the humorist Williams, is a lesser evil to be placed in the United States Senate than the long-haired prototype of Peg leg's motive power for transportation. GAINING NOTORIETY The campaign begun by Theodore Roosevelt for the regulation of the railroads and trusts has brought forth a multitude of lesser reformers whose sole slogan seems to be, "Gain notoriety by attacking the railroads or trusts." The Governors of North Carolina and Alabama, come easily in this class, as does Judge Kennesaw Mountain Landis, of Chicago, who imposed a fine upward of $29,000,000 upon the Standard Oil Company. The fine imposed by Judge Landis was excessive and likewise the action of Gov. Glenn and Gov. Comer in holding up the Southern Railroad merits disapproval. Strenuosity has paid well in Roosevelt's career. Possibly the lesser lights expect to profit by this example. New York is suffering from an epidemic of assaults upon women and children. Where are all the members of the Georgia Society, Tennessee Society and the other Southern Societies that they do not take the situation in hand and teach the criminal class a lesson by lynching a few of the perpetrators of the "unmentionable crime." the stat as much another, Surely those representatives of the South in the East belong to the "best citizens!" A fly reporter on one of the local dailies is trying to quote the County Superintendent of Schools as being in favor of only Southern born teachers in the county schools. Unless the wages paid to teachers in these environments are increased, the city and County Board of Education will be glad to get teachers from any source at the price offered. The Business League this month, the Supreme Lodge and encampment of Uniform Rank, Knights of Pythias, next month, and also the National Baptist Convention next month, will spend enough money to organize and put in operation a manufacturing plant, erect a mammoth lodge hall, or send a half hundred missionaries to Africa. These big meetings come high, but we must have them. --- Bob Taylor put the harpoon in Ned Carmack, and John Sharp Williams has performed a like service for Vardaman. Now, if Jeff Davis, of Arkansas, and Ben Tillman, of South Carolina should just shift this mortal, the Senate would seem like a Sunday school. The Odd Fellows of Alabama are having a regular monkey and parrot time. Some one ought to take a big stick and kick off a few dozen of the big leaders, then harmony would reign. FORMER CITIZEN OF NASHVILLE COMMITS SUICIDE. News was received in this city Monday evening that Mr. John H. Barbour had met his death in Chicago that morning. It appears from the reports published in a daily paper of Chicago that Mr. Barbour committed suicide by throwing himself in front of an Illinois Central train at the 32nd Street Railroad Station. The remains, when found, had the head severed completely from the rest of the body. The only cause assigned was that Mr. Barbour and his wife had a disagreement that morning before he left home. Mr. Barbour was well-known in this city, as for many years he was the junior member of the firm of Harris & Barbour, the Cedar street furniture dealers. He left a wife and six children, the youngest of whom is about four months old. Interment was in Chicago. BUSTER—SHEFFEY NUPTIALS. Mr. Harry Buster, accompanied by his best man, passed through the city Tuesday morning en route to Huntsville, where he was married to Miss Anna Sheffey, of this city. While in the city the young men were entertained at breakfast by Miss Mary Spence, a member of the faculty of Fisk University. Mr. Buster and his bride were students for a number of years at Fisk, where he gained quite a reputation by his participation in athletic affairs, and she was equally prominent in literary and social circles. The newly wedded couple will return to Chicago where the groom is now residing while taking a course in one of the medical schools of that city DISTRICT CONFERENCE OF JACKSON'S TEMPLE C. M. E. The Nashville District Conference of the C. M. E. Church convened at Green Hill, Tenn., last month. The convention was largely attended by delegates and friends from different towns. Rev. H. J.

The annual sermon was preached by Rev. I. H. Jones, pastor of Lane Tabernacle, and was very spiritual. The fourth day was the convention of the District ministers. All made good reports. Mrs. C. H. Phillips, after all reports were handed in, delivered an excellent address to the ministers which was very inspiring. At night a literary program was rendered. Rev. T. A. Sillvis, Mrs. Annie Shaw, Rev. J. T. Walton, of Chattanooga, Miss Bessie Landrum, of Alabama, Miss Lady E. Phillips, Miss Laura E. Stump, Miss Ida White, Mrs. J. E. Williams, of Chattanooga, and Mrs. C. H. Phillips, all were participants. Sunday, the last day of the Conference, was high day at Green Hill. A fine sermon was delivered by Rev. H. H. J. Johnson. Most every one seemed to feel the Holy Ghost. After the morning sermon there was a large spread for all on the lawn. Every one enjoyed eating the fine dinner prepared by the people of Green Hill. At three o'clock Rev. J. T. Walton preached the farewell sermon, after which all the delegates departed for home. The Conference was very much assisted by Mrs. S. A. Sawyers, who is so faithful to her church, and has recently organized a Sewing Circle for children at Jackson's Temple, which is growing and has a large attendance every Saturday evening. The reports of different departments were as follows: Sunday school ..... 22 67 Epworth League ..... 20 90 Conference ..... 103 10 The pastor from Chattanooga made the best report, and is now endeavoring to complete the newchurch by the time of the annual conference in October.

THE most sacred ordinance that can be observed by all churches is that known as the Lord's Supper or, in other words, Sacrament. We do not think it is in keeping with these sacred ordiances of the Lord's Supper in church now-a-days to try to administer it with out the proper vessels. Every Church Ought to Have a First-Class Communion Set. They can have them made out of the best grade of guardruple-plated table silverware if they desire them. The Church Supply Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board has just received from their factory a new lot of this high-class ware, and would take pains in showing them to any one. The Prices are Within Reach of All Terms are Reasonable. No church ought to be willing to use glass dishes or the like for these ordinances when they can have the best grade of silver at moderate prices.

Corner Cedar and 11th Avenue, North Telephone 896, YOU CAN BUY USE CHURCH SEATS AND CHURCH PEWS New Styles Cheap and Endurable. Comfort and Beauty Combined. UNTIL the large number of people who are never seen in churches can be assured that every church in this vicinity will have a set of seats that will be clean, comfortable and inviting, they will not be seen inside a church. Many churches will supply this long-felt want if they could do so at prices and on terms within their reach, thus increasing their attendance, drawing on the unusually large number of people who do not attend the churches, and which would evidently result in every service being crowded. A barrier has been in the way in the form of high prices, shoddy goods and no terms. This barrier has been removed by the Church Supply Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board, which has presented the new style church seat (its own creation and its own make). These seats are constructed of the best grade of hardwood. They are built by the best skilled mechanics and have proven to be the most comfortable ever offered at the prices. The terms on which they can be purchased are so easy that any church, regardless of its financial condition, can secure a set of these by a small cash payment, have the seats installed and pay the remainder in monthly or quarterly payments to suit their own financial condition. How long, with such inviting inducements offered, will it be, before every church in and about Nashville will get a set of seats? References can be given to the Nashville churches by referring them to Rev. L. Kirkpatrick, pastor of the St. John Baptist Church, Pearl St.; Rev. J. L. Harding, pastor of the North Third Avenue Baptist Church, both of whom have seated with new style church seats; Rev. G. B. Taylor, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, corner Stevens and Deluge Sts.; Rev. Wm. Haynes, pastor of Sylvan Street Church, Shelby Avenue, who have installed the church pews. --- --- FOR FURTHER INFORMA- TION APPLY TO THE National P Help Yourself Why Don't You TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR SHOE BARGAINS?

We are still calling for 100 paid up subscribers to the Nashville Globe. CLARKSVILLE NOTES. The past week in this city was one of the quietest in the history of this place, so much so that almost every day seemed as Sunday. No doubt, however, this week will repay for that last noticeable stillness. Eighth of August, with its many sidelights, bewilderments and crowds, will be in full blast, while the Maple Leaf Club will entertain visitors and friends with a special moonlight outing; and socials and hay-rides galore will be but a reminder that this august city is still on the map. The vanguard of the Emancipation celebration is casually moving on this place; but will no doubt be somewhat disappointed in the condition of the town as was wont on former occasion One of the usual sights and common occurrences is the exercising and constant companionship of dogs of the English bull variety and their owners through the streets of this place. While this vogue has been at its zenith for some time it has now begun to wane. One dog, unmindful of what was about to come, was suddenly pounced upon by another of the same variety, kith and kin. A battle royal was seen. The dumb brutes were not the only ones to suffer, but owners came forward under the last law of the legislature, and paid taxes and penalties for harboring. A South Clarksville man, owner of a kennel of several high priced blooded animals, has become very generous and is now the possessor of one. Mrs. Mary Ligon, of St. Louis, came in Saturday. Mr. Chas. Bell, of Louisville, is visiting his father, Mr. Ed. Bell. Miss Anna Gordon will make St. Louis her home. Mrs. Mabel Overton and sister, Mrs. Willa Reed, passed through the city last Saturday. H. W. Randals spent several days in Owensboro, Ky. Mr. Walter Tyler is making his home in Hopkinsville. Miss Bessie Buckner returned from Russeleville, Ky., Sunday. Dr. Jefferson returned from Nashville Tuesday. McMINNVILLE NOTES. The W. P. L. A. A. held its annual convention here in Clark Chapel beginning Thursday and closing Sunday night. The delegation was heartily welcomed and royally entertained in the homes of the citizens. All the services were largely attended. On Saturday night an exhibit was made at the church, where beautiful and artistic needlework done by the ladies of the different lodges was shown. The annual sermon was preached on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock by the chaplain of the order, to a large congregation, a very impressive and able address being delivered. On Sunday evening, in connection with a song service beautifully rendered by the choir, five minute addresses were made by Drs. J. B. Singleton, of Nashville, and S. P. Livingston, of this place; Mr. Jas. Bumpass, LL. D., of Nashville; Prof. Hawkins, of Walden University, and Mr. Frank Mercer, of Nashville, formerly of this place.

Hawkins opened her school on the 22nd at Leesburg with a large enrollment. Our town will be largely represented at the District Conference of the M. E. Church, which meets in Tullahoma this week. CEMETERY NOTES. Quite a number were present from Murfreesboro attending the camp meeting, and also from Nashville and surrounding towns. For the past week Rev. Florer has had a most wonderful meeting, the largest and most successful camp meeting that has ever been held in Rutherford County. Rev. Mr. Florer preached an able sermon last Sunday on the "Prodigal Son." Quite a number of white people were and have been present at all of the meetings. Mrs. Lovey Wendel, of Nashville, who once was a successful teacher in Rutherford County, furnished music and presided at the organ during the meeting, and with the assistance of the Stone's River Church choir, added greatly to the success of the meeting. White people flocked for miles around to hear the camp meeting and jubilee songs and donated freely. EBENEZER NOTES. Miss Addie Buchanan, of the Murfreesboro road, returned Monday from Conference. Miss Cornelia Battle, of Glen Haven avenue, spent Sunday night with Miss Mannie Ross, of the Murfreesboro pike. Misses Josie and Louise Battle spent a pleasant afternoon with the Misses A. L. and D.

One of the most accomplished young women in the race and one whq has figured very conspicuously in the past couple of years before the liter- ary world, is expected to make a trip to Nashville within the next two months. The young woman in ques- tion is none other than Miss Hallie FE. Queen, at present residing in Wash- ington, D. ©, Miss Queen is an Ith- iva student, says a Washington cor- respondent, and is one of the bright- est little intellects that has ever come ont from that college. It is said that she is a dramatist of no mean ability, \lready several of her dramatizations have taken the public by storm. Two of her pieces of work are “The Last Days of Pompeii” and “The Two Or. vhans.” Tt is said that she is_work: ing now diligently and very success. fully arranging one of Dunbar’s pieces, “The Unealled,” which is be. ing dramatized for one of the promi nent Sunday school workers in the District of Columbia, This young woman will no doubt find great en- couragement and a large undeveloped field with an appreciatiye and enthu- siastic lot of supporters in and about Nashville. The date of her visit has not been definitely fixed, but will no doubt be within the next thirty days. Her preparation of Dunbar’s piece is being more closely watched, and the results more anxiously awaited, than any of her former efforts. fe wea THE NIAGARA MOVEMENT. * The Third Annual Meeting of the Niagara Movement will ‘take place in Boston, Mass., Monday to Wednesday, August 26, to 28.

It is learned with regret that the Baptists’ team will not play on the 12th, as was announced last week. The difficulty is that the park could not be secured, as the Stars and Butchers meet on that date. The Baptists, having lost but one game this season, are anxious to meet some team or teams before the bell taps. 3 . see There was a rumor out some time ago that the A. B, C.’s of Indianapo- lis were headed this way, but as the season was getting old, they went West instead. Having met the best teams that could be raked together, they finally landed on the Leland Giants. Though defeated, they played the best game of the season, so say the 3,000 present. The mighty pitch- ing of Rube Foster was the cause of it all. € eens A league of all the towns within 75 miles of Nashville will likely be hatched this winter; so do not be surprised should you be called on to attend a league game, All and every: thing Negroes. nae Burke and Johnson Matched to Fight Six Rounds, Sailor Burke of Brooklyn and Jack Johnson, the Negro heavyweight, have heen matched to fight six rounds dur- ing the first week in September. They agreed to meet at catch weights and fight Queensbury rules. Each also agreed to allow the other to wear soft bandages on his hands during the contest. Bids for the bout will be opened in two weeks. While it is conceded by _ sporting men that Johnson will win, there are many who believe that the Brooklyn ite will give him a hard battle. Many men who have seen both fight recent ly declare Burke has a good chance to win, Johnson is much the heavier. He is 29 years old, and weighs nearly 20( pounds. That he has a powerful punch was demonstrated when he re cently knocked out Bob Fitzsimmons in Philadelphia with what looked like a slight blow. Burke weighs about 169 pounds and possesses a punch that if landed squarely will fell the strong est man in the ring to-day. : A Stepping Stone. As “Fitz” allowed himself to be made a stepping stone for Johnson in their recent bout, it is up to Burns to fight Jack or show the yellow streak. Since Burns has said he will lay down the color line, the chances are that some club will offer a large purse for a match between Johnson and Burns. : eee “Fitz” says that Jeffries cannot and never could hit as hard as Joe Choynski. Now let Jeffries put aside his dodging plea, the “color line,” and Jack Johnson will take his meas- ure. eae The next best thing on tap for this fall would be a go between Britt and Gans, as Britt has just won over Nel- son. Of course, Gans could not look for any great thing for meeting Nel. son, a vanquished foe, see Matthews. Another star in another line. Mat- thews, who got his early training at Tuskegee, but finished at Harvard, ’97. and won special attention at football and baseball, will coach the High School football squad of Dorchester, Mass., the coming season. ogee SMOOTH THIEF. Monday, August 5, 1907, a man called at Mrs. Fannie Hamilton’s res- idence and told her that he was herding cows and would like to get her cow, claiming that he had “ood pasture, where there was plenty of water, grass, ete. Mrs. Hamilton, thinking this was just suitable for her, let the thief have her cow, the fee being only twenty-five cents per week and the cow returned, but she hos neither seen the man or the cow since. The fellow said his name was Hollins and lived out on the Hills boro pike. Officers are now looking for the thief. See AFTERNOON RECEPTION.
