MR. THOMPSON AND MR. HART
EDITOR PHIL H. BROWN TURNS ON A LITTLE LIGHT.
ABLY DEFENDS HIS RIGHTS TO FREE SPEECH.
IN AN EDITORIAL IN THE MORNING NEWS OF AUGUST 14 CORRECTS MR. THOMPSON'S MISLEADING STATEMENTS--PROVES THAT HE IS NOT INVADING THE RANKS OF THE AFRICAN METHODIST CHURCH, BUT IS OF THE FOURTH GENERATION OF NEGRO METHODISTS.
Mr. Phil H. Brown, editor and proprietor of the Hopkinsville Morning News, replies in unstinted terms to the recent remarks of Mr. Thompson in the Indianapolis Freeman concerning Mr. D. A. Hart, the general foreman at the National Baptist Publishing House, and manager of the Globe Publishing Company. Mr. Brown writes as follows:
In the performance of our editorial duties, the editor of the Morning News recently saw fit to call to the attention of the A. M. E. Church the brilliant availability of Mr. D. A. Hart, for the Secretaryship of the Sunday School Union at Nashville, Tenn. Mr. Hart is a remarkable young man, singularly above reproach, a son of the great Methodist organization and a man thoroughly conversant with the affairs and machinery of the publishing concern at Nashville.
Our editorial calling attention to Mr. Hart's availability as the logical successor of Dr. Chappelle, the present incumbent, in the event that that distinguished person should be elevated to the Episcopacy, was generally received with grateful effect. Practical men in the church firmly and pardonably believe that should a man of practical experience be placed in charge of the publishing house at Nashville, that a large measure of success would be the outcome. This, of course, with due and profound apologies to Dr. Chappelle, who is making an excellent record at the institution, but we were speaking of Mr. Hart, whom we think should succeed the Doctor when the latter enters into his episcopal reward, which should happen next summer.
Our good friend R. W. Thompson, who for fifty-two weeks a year causes the columns of the Indianapolis Freeman to sparkle with brilliant wisdom, has caused a rift to occur in the lute. Mr. Thompson in discussing Mr. Hart's candidacy has the following to say on one occasion:
"Editor 'Phil' H. Brown of the Hopkinsville, Ky., Morning News, has invaded the ranks of church politics and brought out as his candidate for Secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, one 'Dock' Hart, a foreman in the printing department of the National Baptist Publishing House at Nashville, Tenn. We have long known of Col. Brown as a political Warwick, but did not know that he had developner circles of Methodism sufficient to warrant him in naming the successor to the astute Dr. Chappelle, who may himself have something to say on the subject. Would 'Dock' Hart be satisfactory to the present wearer of the 'Union' Toga? An amended statement from Warwick Brown or a ringing endorsement from Dr. Chappelle would tend to clarify the atmosphere on this point."
With a complete absence of pique the editor of the Morning News reents the suggestion that we are "invading the ranks of church politics." We happen to be of the fourth generation of Negro Methodists and are inclined to assert our right of suggestion.
Referring again to the foregoing expression of Mr. Thompson, we volunteer the further information that D. A. Hart is not "foreman of the printing department of the National Baptist Publishing House at Nashville." He is Superintendent of the Manufacturing department and directs the activities of seven "foremen" and is the head of 138 colored working men and working women, skilled and unskilled, and by his great constructive ability has succeeded in making the institu

tion there the largest enterprise in the race, excepting Tuskegee.
We protest that we do not desire to arrogate to ourselves the right to "name the successor to Dr. Chappelle." It has been the custom of the General Conference to do this, when Brother Thompson permits it, and that excellent organization has not shown any disposition to relinquish this prerogative nor any disability to attend to its own business, and our humble effort was to make this suggestion to the conference. We did this pretty much as Mr. Thompson makes his voluminous paragraphic suggestions on the Negroid universe, running in scope from the higher criticism of the Bible to the latest prize fight.
Mr. Hart's friends will be perfectly satisfied if the Conference elects him and they will see to it that the Conference shall have abundant information concerning their aspirant to direct its deliberations. Surely Mr. Thompson will not blame them for this.
In the last issue of the Freeman the versatile correspondent broke out in a fresh place. This is what he said:
"It may be mentioned in passing that Mr. 'Dock' Hart, of the Baptist Publishing House at Nashville, who has been sprung by Editor 'Phil' Brown as a candidate for the Secretaryship of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, is a nephew of Bishop Evans Tyree."
We desire to correct the first statement that Mr. Hart is a "nephew of Pishop Tyree." He is Bishop Tyree's half brother. Now, we reluctantly rise to this point of information: Pray, in what way does Mr. Hart's kinship to the illustrious prelate affect his candidacy? Surely this is naught to be ashamed of. Here follows the last observation:
"There are Baptists curious enough to wonder why Dr. Boyd does not permit the Methodist Publishing House at Nashville to enjoy the rare talent of Foreman 'Dock' Hart, and make room in his own establishment for some skilled brother of the strict Baptist faith and order."
And now we must insist that this last paragraph is the most inconsistent of all. Why should Mr. Thompson, himself a man of letters, power and high intelligence, desire to pander such silly sectarian prejudice?
Probably Dr. Boyd desires to retain Mr. Hart's superior services in the wonderful work they have built up together. No doubt if the A. M. E. General Conference awoke to its opportunity to secure the services of D. A. Hart as Secretary, the Sunday School Union would develop into a great institution like Dr. Boyd's. But we are constrained to say that there is only one way that the Sunday School Union can secure the services of D. A. Hart and that is for him to be elected Secretary.
There is no member in the entire organization so singularly fitted as D. A. Hart. Truly he is the one in a million.
R. W. Thompson, being a practical man, surely he believes in practical things. Why shouldn't he join the procession for "Dock" Hart?
The members of St. John A. M. E Church have been celebrating all this week their forty-fourth anniversary. The entertainments opened Monday night with a "Martha Washington Tea Party," Mr. Charles Kelly and Miss Brucie Mai Ewing representing Mr. and Mrs. Washington. There were represented wives of Presidents John Adams, John Q. Adams, James K. Polk and Abraham Lincoln. The wife of the present incumbent of the White House was represented by Miss Gertrude Mayberry, with Miss Irvin as Miss Ethel Roosevelt. The young ladies in their quaint costumes deserve much credit for the success of Monday night.
Tuesday night there was an anniversary class meeting. A great number of members and friends were out and a great meeting was held.
Wednesday a doll drill under the direction of Miss Jennie P. Dunson, proved very interesting to the large number present.
Thursday night there were class leaders' contest, anniversary of oldest members and a biscuit sale. There was a large number out on this night, and quite an interest was manifested in the contest. This was under the direction of Miss Maggie Mayberry. To-night there will be a grand concert under the direction of Miss G. A. Lofton, with a country store conducted by the young ladies. This will close one of the most successful entertainments the church has had.
TURNER NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE OPENS
SEPTEMBER 24.
The fall opening of the Turner Normal and Industrial Institute on the 24th inst., at Shelbyville, Tenn., is looked forward to with much interest. A new college building is just being completed on a twenty-acre tract of land just west of the town. This will be the administration building. It will contain the assembly hall or chapel, recitation rooms, dining room, kitchen, reception room, dormitory for females only, and the President's office. A strong faculty has been secured for the present session. Dr. J. A. Jones, the President, has traveled extensively this summer, in the interest of the school and the result is shown in a number of students already on the grounds preparing for entrance. Dr. Jones states that he has fears that he may not be able to accommodate all applicants, as most of the room in the dormitory has already been engaged.
School will open for registration and classification on the 23rd. The formal opening will take place the next day, at which time many prominent ministers of the A. M. E. Church will be present to deliver addresses, among whom will be Bishop B. F. Lee, of Wilberforce, O., who is the President of the Board of Trustees. The following ministers occupy places on the programme as speakers: Rev. A. Brooks of Fayetteville, Rev. T. W. Hampton of Columbia and Dr. A. J. Gray of Pulski. Other ministers from all over the state are expected. The opening will also be the signal for an educational rally in every church in Tennessee of the African Methodist connection. Dr. Jones has issued a call for $3,000 and he is hopeful of great results.
This institution speaks volumes for the material interest of Shelbyville. It was established several years ago, but has only come into prominence in recent years. Dr. Jones, the president, is a product of Nashville. He was at one time pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church. He has proven himself worthy of recognition as one of the foremost educators of the day. Some of the leading ministers of the A. M. E. Church in this city are connected with the institution in official capacities. Dr. T. W. Haigler, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, is chairman of the Board of Faculty; Rev. I. H. Welch, presiding elder in the Tennessee Conference, is chairman of Trustee Board. Dr. Jones believes that the work this year will surpass all others.
OPENING OF HOFFMAN HALL.
9:30 Holy Communion Sermon.
3:00 Sunday School.
4:00 Evensong and Catechizing.
The congregation of All Saints will worship in the Church of the Holy Trinity on and after the second Sunday in October. Formal opening services will be conducted by Bishop T. F. Gailor on Sunday, November 24. Holy Trinity Church is a very beautiful and commodious stone building situated at the corner of Sixth and Ewing avenues. The Rev. A. G. Combs is in charge of the work. Rev. Mr. Combs has only recently come to Nashville from Georgia, but has already produced a most favorable impression in this city.
RETURNS TO CHICAGO.
Mrs. Davie Coldman, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Henry Courtney, of 97 Green street, left for her home in Chicago Sunday night. During her stay in the South Mrs. Coldman visited Knoxville and Harriman. While here she was the guest of Mrs. M. L. Wester, and was entertained by Mrs. V. Rankins.
ROBINSON-FLOYD NUPTIALS.
A marriage of much interest to the many friends of the contracting parties was that of Miss Margaret Louisa Robinson to Mr. Henry Floyd, which was solemnized Wednesday evening, September 18, at the residence of Mrs. Fanny Lucas, 523 Jo Johnston avenue. The house was decorated with ferns and palms. Promptly at 8 o'clock, the hour appointed, Miss Ruth P. McKinney began playing the wedding march, to the strains of which marched first the ushers, Messrs. Fred J. Ewing and George Davis, coming in opposite doors, followed by the bride and her only attendant, Miss Nannie I. Sumner, as maid of honor, through one door and the groom and his best man, Mr. Fred J. Work, from another. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W S. Ellington, pastor of the First Bap
tist Church. Following the ceremony the bridal party and the guests repaired to the residence of the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Floyd, Hawkins street, where the reception was held. Here the lawn was beautifully lighted with Japanese lanterns, and behind an embankment of palms and flowers on the veranda was stationed a band of musicians which furnished enchanting music throughout the entire evening. A host of friends and relatives had assembled to congratulate the happy couple. The bride was attired in a creation of white silk mulle over silk with trimmings of ribbon and lace, her veil was caught with a chiffon pon-pon and her bouquet was of bride's roses and ferns tied with white satin ribbon. Miss Sumner wore a gown of cream silk Porte DeParis, with fagoted insertions and ribbons. Her bouquet was of bride's roses and ferns. The bride is the third daughter of Mrs. A. Priscilla Robinson, of Boston, Mass, and has been connected with the National Baptist Publishing Board, as stenographer, for several years. The groom is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Floyd, of this city, ans is also connected with the Publishing Board, being a valued employee in the press room. A large and handsome collection of presents was received. The young people will make their home with the groom's parents. Among the out of town guests present was the bride's mother, Mrs. A. Priscilla Robinson, of Boston, Mass.
OPENING OF THE A. N. JOHNSON UNDERTAKING ESTABLISHMENT
All during the day Monday there was a stream of people pouring into the new undertaking establishment opened in the Boyd Building by Mr. A. N. Johnson, who formerly conducted a similar business in Mobile, Ala. Fully one thousand people attended the opening, which was the grandest ever witnessed in Nashville. There is not another undertaker's establishment in the city, white or colored, which has finer funeral supplies to meet the demands of the people than has Mr. Johnson. Not only are his funeral supplies superb, but the building and its furniture are inviting. In the building you will find a beautifully furnished waiting room and a library filled with some of the best books which you can read while you wait and rest. Next we come to the show room which cannot be surpassed by any, the caskets and couches being of the very latest style.
So often there are homes which are not suitable for funerals, and Mr. Johnson has thought of this and has a chapel handsomely furnished, in which services may be held. Mr. Johnson did not give his visitors, as had been expected by many, a coffin as a souvenir, but each one was greeted with a welcome word and smile and served punch and waffers. The ladies were given a red carnation as a souvenir. Mr. Johnson does not wish you to wait until sadness comes to visit him, but you are welcome at any and all times
AN EVENING AT GREENWOOD.
On the 11th at a familiar and much frequented spot at 8 o'clock p. m. the beautiful pleasure wagon of one Mr. White stood. Curious persons wondered, bystanders gazed with admiration, but are long delusions were concluded, for a merry party of young people emerged. They filed in, each choosing for himself a favorite spot with his Eve. They were off! Peals of laughter, strains of music (for there was a string band) were heard as they jogged along through the streets and along the pike, until they at last reached Greenwood. Imagine how surprised and bewildered when they reached this point and found the gate barred and everything dark and dismal. A plan was hit upon which gave admittance this being executed, added another charm to the evening. Very soon they were seeking—some a cosy corner, some the games, while others praised the musician. There were baskets, boxes, jars, cans, dishes and plates disposed of by the wholesale. They had a good time. Those participating were Mr. Walter Clark, Miss Willa B. Dodson; Mr. Wm. Starnes Miss Georgia Buford: Mr. Richard Mason, Miss Alberta K. Stubbs; Mr. Mahlon Carter, Miss Lula Grant; Mr. Brackins, Miss Bessie Chester; Mr. Marcus Bonner, Miss Virginia Whittaker; Dr. H. W. Lynch, Miss Mamie Whittaker; Misses Lucile Bryan, M Stubbs, Messrs. Boht, L. Williams, B White, A. Whittaker and V. Williams
ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. Susie Cole, of Melrose, entertained on last Monday Mrs. Neil Sykes, of Decatur, Ala., Mrs. Mitchell, of Pulaski, and Mrs. Goodwin, Ices and cakes were served.

OPENING AT
MEDICAL COLLEGE BEGINS WITH IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES.
LITERARY DEPARTMENT TAKES UP ON TWENTY-FIFTH OF SEPT.
MANY PROMINENT EDUCATORS, DIVINES AND CITIZENS PRESENT—SEVERAL ABLE ADDRESSES FULL OF HOPEFUL ENCOURAGEMENT MADE-LARGE AUDIENCE FILLED WALDEN AUDITORIUM, A MANIFESTATION OF INTEREST IN THE STUDENTS FISK OPENS ON 28TH.
Wednesday afternoon at the Mehary Auditorium a large number of people gathered, the occasion being the formal opening of Mehary Medical College. Dean G. W. Hubbard presided. Miss Mamie Braden, instructor of music in Walden University, and the choir, furnished music for the occasion. Fully two hundred students are enrolled in Meharry this year and this promises to be one of the largest attended sessions in the history of the school. Dr. J. A. McMillian, who has been at the Freedman's Hospital for the last five months, has returned to give the students the best instruction possible along his line of work, having accomplished himself very thoroughly in surgical work.
Rev. Bond, of the Congregational Church, offered prayer. Rev. T. Johnson, pastor of Clark Memorial Chapel, said that he wished to impress upon the young men the uses of the principles of justice and benevolence. Dr. G. W. Henderson, dean of the Theological Department of Fisk, discussed the relation of the medical profession to the ministry. He said that the physician is the right hand of the minister, because of the vital relationship of the soul and body. Dr. J. G. Merrill, President of Fisk University, said: "The secret of the success of a physician is knowing what is the matter with a patient and tending him for the same." Dr. J. H. Holman, Dr. W. D. Chappelle, of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, E. W. S. Hammond, Revs. James Bond, W. S. Ellington, C. H. Boone, J. A. Swift and L. M. Moores also spoke.
The different members of the faculty made very interesting talks relative to their line of work. A solo was sung by Mr. G. W. Miller. The Mehary quartette also sang a very pleasing song.
The literary department of Walden University will open on the 25th of this month, and then every department will be in full swing on this old historic spot.
Walden University can point with pride to many of her noble sons and daughters all over the country who have made commendable records since receiving their diplomas from that institution. While the university has had a great setback due to the disastrous fire of some years ago, it is believed that this will be fully overcome in the near future, and Walden University will again be in the brightest rays reflected by educational institutions.
Fisk University will open for the reception of boarders on the 28th of this month, and the examination for classes will begin the 29th On Wednesday, morning, The University will begin its year's work. The Globe representative was informed that already more had applied for admission than can be accommodated, and every indication shows that this will be one of the most prosperous years in the history of the institution.
In a few days what had been barren buildings and campus for the last three months will be crowded with anxious seekers for knowledge. Nashville is proud of Fisk University, and can well boast of being the educational center of the South, Dr. Merrill, the President, has surrounded himself with an able faculty, and is always endeavoring to add new and better features to the work of the university.
There is yet a faint hope that Roger Williams University will be reestablished in this city, and every citizen would hail with delight such an assurance.

PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES,
Never before in the history of this
school have prospects been so bright
for a successful year. Teachers and
pupils appear to be glad that school
days have come again and all seem
ready for a year of hard work. From
the experience of the past two weeks,
one would conclude that some good
resolutions had been made during the
summer and new hopes created in the
bosom of the children. They are go-
ing at their work with a will and a
determination Which means the high-
est success, The school is crowded.
‘There is not a vacant seat and chairs
and the laps of desks have to be used
in order to accommodate the children.
‘The principal sticks to his rule of
‘past years to seat every pupil, and to
turn no one away unseated. Bad chil.
dren have no terrors for the faculty of
this school. If there is a vacancy a
bad child is as welcome to it as a good
one, This faculty regards a mean, dis
obedient, stupid or idle boy as good
material to show their skill as teach.
ers, It may not be generally known
that this public institution has on its
faculiy eight college graduates, some
of whom have also won professional
degrees. No other High School in the
country can show a faculty better
trained or educated.
The addition of Prof. Hardy Keith
and Miss Elizabeth Moore, who have
charge of the Manual Training an¢
Domestic Science Departments respec
tively increases the standing and dig
nity of the school. In selecting thes
two new teachers, great care Was exer
cised to see that the standard of cul-
ture and scholarship was heightened
instead of lowered. Already they have
won the love and esteem of their pu-
pils and paved the way for brilliant
success this year,
The Manual Training Department is
simply grand. The furniture is beauti-
ful. The kitchen is a perfect picture
and the dining room will be a model
of its kind. The coal and gas ranges
that were presented to the department
by certain public-spirited colored citi-
zens are the finest madé and make a
handsome showing in the kitchen.
The names of these citizens who
responded so readily with their cash
to assist in fitting up this kitelien will
ve found below. These men regarded
it an honor and an opportunity to pre-
sent these ranges to the school for use
by_the colored children.
Dr. R. H. Boyd, that big-heartec
man, who never yet has refused to re

EDUCATION.
The unusually large enrollment of pupils in the public schools of the city last week, the beginning of another school year, indicates an awakened and lively interest in education on the part of parents and guardians. This manifestation on the part of the people to put their children in school early and give them the full benefits of the entire time, is a hopeful sign which augurs much for the welfare of the young people. Too much cannot be done for education of the young people, for on them shall devolve the duties of the race in the years when they will have charge of its destiny.
Each generation has the right to bequeath to its successor a rich heritage of good examples and noble deeds as a stimulus and for worthy emulation. Water cannot rise higher than its source nor can any people rise higher in the scale of real progress than their determination, purposes and character, the source of their strength and power.
If racial greatness is to be acquired and maintained no pains should be spared in the general diffusion of useful, helpful knowledge among the young, and those who, in any way, are assisting and contributing to this end, are serving their generation, serving posterity and serving God. Every people who have succeeded in making a creditable place in the annals of the world's affairs, have been solicitous about the education and training of their young people. Such solicitude has always been appreciated and fruitful of some of the greatest accomplishments.
It is hoped that the interest shown by the people in their boys and girls at the opening of this school year will not abate, but will increase, serving as incentive and inspiration.
The tabulated report of the enrollments of the several schools last week was as follows:
Pearl High School, 430; Meigs, 598;
Knowles, 783; Napier, 577; Belleview, 388; Lawrence, 423; Carter, 362; Clifton, 156; Ascraft, 164; Peebles, 116; Hadley, 441; Total, 4,634.
This large enrollment of pupils for the first week of the school year is more prophetic of the future than the most eloquent array of words. It shows that the people are optimistic, and that they mean to give to their children an educational opportunity to make of themselves intelligent men and women and capable and useful members of society.
Great men, like small ones, must live and must die. But the passing of great men creates more of a stir on the surface of life than the passing of the ordinary human beings un-

known to fame. Since the report is current that Ex-President Cleveland is seriously ill, there is not a nook nor corner in this great country where people are not watching with eagerness for every bit of news that will tell something of the great sufferer.
There are many who may have differed with Mr. Cleveland in the policy of his administration of the affairs of the country during his career as President, yet none can doubt his sincerity nor his sterling honesty. One fact is patent and that is this: Mr. Cleveland was President of the United States during the terms he filled that high station. There was no power behind the throne to swerve him from his duty as he saw it. Though his party swung off at a tangent and left him to stem the current of national affairs, almost alone, he did not murmur nor complain, but faced the situation with a rugged courage which challenged the admiration of his political opponents. His own party to a man, as it were, dubbed him traitor, claiming that he deserted some of the most vital of Jeffersonian and Democratic principles. But Mr. Cleveland, as chief pilot, steered the ship of state straight ahead, despite the fierce gales and adverse storms of party strife, bickerings and animosities, relying on the soberer thoughts of after years for vindication. All told, Mr. Cleveland's administration of the Nation's affairs compares favorable with that of other administrations, and this is all the truer when the fact is taken into consideration that he was greatly hampered by internal party dissensions.
The election of Mr. Cleveland, the standard-bearer of the Democratic party, to the presidency in 1884, created a curious enough situation in the South among many of the old ex-slaves, who believed that the return of that party to power, again, for the first time since their freedom, meant the possibility of their return to the "cruel slavery days." Some wept, some prayed and some were almost dazed with fright by the intelligence. Democracy and slavery were synonymous terms with many of the poor, old ex-slaves, and there was a touch of humor and pathos about their groundless fears to those who were better informed. But after a few months had passed and they were not claimed as property, they learned to respect the man who was brave enough on the eve of election day and in the face of a trying and delicate situation to say to his friends, "Tell the truth."
Under Mr. Cleveland's civil service policy more of our young men stood competitive examinations, received appointments and retained them than under any administration before or since.
Though Mr. Cleveland's administrations were less spectacular than some which have followed, yet his were devoid of the same withering blunders and we could wish that the White House was occupied by as courageous a man as Mr. Cleveland. And in this hour of his suffering our sympathies go out to the Ex-President.
PERSECUTION OF THE JEWS
The descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the patriarchal fathers of the children of Israel, the once chosen and favored people of God, are undergoing some bitter and frightful experiences in Russia. Recently at Kishinev they were the victims of a massacre similar to the one of 1906. Race hatred is not so much at the bottom of the constantly recurrent atrocities being committed by the Muscovites upon the Semites as are their desires for robbery and rapine, and the knowledge that their crimes will be winked at by the authorities and go unpunished.
It is a fact of history, which also must have obtained in immemorial times, that where two races living in the same country and one allowed to deprecate upon the rights of the other with impunity, the dominant one has always grown bold, arrogant, tyrannical and criminal toward the weaker. With non-punishment of crime goes a sense of selfish safety which invariably breeds a spirit of cowardly brutality and disregard for the wholesome supremacy of law. The minions of the Czar's governments do not attempt to
restrain the orthodox gentile Christians in their predatory and murderous attacks upon Jews. The vandals do not stop here but add that most reprehensible and shocking of all crimes the desecration of the honor of womanhood to their category of outrages.
What is true of the treatment of the Jews in Russia is hardly less true of the treatment of the Negro race in America. From time to time in different localities of this country the Negro is subjected to wholesale butcheries as occurred in Atlanta, Georgia, a year ago this month. Massacres are frequent enough, but the shooting of members of the race in the back on the filmsiest pretext or knocking their brains out with clubs without even formally arresting them, is a daily, almost an hourly, occurrence. The Jews are undergoing frightful atrocities in Christian Russia and the Negro is undergoing similar treatment experiences in Christian America.
"The negro troops who are returning from the Philippines have been ordered to Madison Barracks, Ontario, New York, and many protests have been entered from that place and vicinity. There is but one point to which these troops should have been sent, and that is Senator Foraker's home town in Ohio."
The above is an editorial squib from the Tennessee of Wednesday, September 18. If it is not meant as a sort of pun, then it does not mean anything that even suggests consistency. If it is an attempt to cast belittlement at the brave black soldiers or at Mr. Foraker, it is one of those sickly little efforts which falls into its own mire, writhes and expires.
The Asiatic ogre is looming up in the far West, in the shape of labor troubles, and is casting an ominous shadow along the Pacific coast from Vancouver to Southern California. The much heralded and dreaded yellow peril, the irresistible Jap, the Chinese coolie and the mystic, occult son of the Hindus, is there and still coming. The Japanese, many of whom are veterans of Nogi, Kuroki and Oyama, are there and they are marshalling the other foreigners. The dislodgment of these people and driving them from their possessions may bring on international complications which may end in breaking up the world's peace.
General Sherman's famous definition of war would be a fit characterization of the automobile evil. More men and women have been dashed to death by these pleasure machines than by all the other sports combined. The Grim Reaper is gathering a veritable harvest in these days from automobile accidents. His victims are rich and pleasure-loving fanatics. Wild bursts of speed by chauffeurs and owners of automobiles have cost more lives than is writ down in belief.
The deliberations of the National Baptist Convention in its twenty-seventh annual convocation held at Washington, D. C., September 11-16, have become a part of the records and history of that great organization, the representative body of a constituency numbering more than two million.
Mrs. Annie Besant, head of the Theosophical Society, said in a recent address that John D. Rockefeller would be born again and in his reincarnation would be a perfect man. May her prediction of Mr. Rockefeller be true of all men.

THE GREAT CARNIVAL
The public will be given a treat in the way of pleasure in a great Horse Show and Carnival, which will be held at Athletic Park Monday and Tuesday nights, October 7 and 8. This entertainment will be a crowning feast of amusement under an able management that will leave nothing undone to give the people a splendid and enjoyable time.
The program for the occasion is a surpassing splendid one. Some of the attractions are as follows: The reproduction on canvas of the late Gans-Britt fight; a wrestling match between George Hicks, of Chicago, and Jim Smith; Mr. Bob Thomas will present Dan Howard King of Negro minstrel-

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.

SPORTING NEWS.
A Word to the Wise.
The advertisements are out announcing the initial Horse Show of Nashville, which should be heralded with delight, as this will be the greatest social event ever pulled off by and among Negroes of this city.
Now, ladies, you have a chance to show your voiles and panamas, while the men can have their Tuxedos and silk hats. It is learned from the management that horses from several neighboring villages have been entered, therefore local horses will have to go some to capture the prizes.
A visiting band will be in attendance to render the latest airs of the day. Tuesday night has been set aside as school children's night. The park will be lighted as bright as day. The date is about two weeks off. Everybody has ample time to get ready. If there is not rain, no doubt the Park will be crowded to its utmost. Note the ad in this issue.
THE FINISH.
On last Monday afternoon a few, yes, a very few, people strolled down to Athletic Park to see the last game of the season between the Standard Giants and National Baptists. The game from one point of view was very good and on the other hand was very bum. Those who did good work for the Giants were King, Watkins, Hurt and Stewart; for the Baptists: Holmes, Johnson, Kelly and Bowman. The Giants made two earned runs while the Baptists made 4.
Mr. Stewart, the umpire, was all right, just a bit off on balls, strikes and bases, that's all. The end came with the score 6 to 5 in the Giants' favor. So ended the season of 1907.
BOSTONS SIGN A COLORED PLAYER.
The Boston National League Club has signed a colored pitcher for next season, and the announcement has already started a little zephyr along the baseball circuit, which is liable to develop into a hurricane before Manager Tenny solves the hotel and dining car problem which stares him in the face.
The fact that baseball is strictly an American game has caused a general resentment against foreigners, except the Irish and Germans, by players as well as by the public. The players will take a man of foreign parentage into the fold with all the welcome that the game offers, but as a rule they make it so bumpy for a foreign-born player that he usually backs out with good grace after the first whirl around the circuit. These affairs have been smoothed over by diplomatic managers, but the employment of this Negro from Honolulu is like a match in a powder magazine.
Some ten years or more ago the same thing was tried in the National League, but the colored second base-
man, who was with Boston, found it so ungenial that he had to quit. The Negro infielder who played with Harvard for several years and then signed a contract in the New England League, lasted a little more than a month. Although Joy is a Malay and not a Negro, he is as dark as an Ethiopian. Throughout the circuit of the two leagues the ball clubs stop at hotels which have long since drawn the color line, and therein Manager Tenney is going to have his first trouble. Players always go in pairs and are so allotted to their rooms, and therein comes another bump. Bill Joy (that is the name of the new pitcher) will have a hard road to travel when it comes to finding a roommate.—Ex.

Bagge Athletic Club Would Hang Up
$35,000—Johnson and Burns
Rawlings, Wyo., Sept. 11.—Promoters who have organized under the name of the Baggs Athletic Association at the little town of Baggs, near here, have wired from this place to Los Angeles and New York, offering a purse of $35,000 for a go between Tommy Burns and Jack Johnson. They announce that they will put up an amphitheater seating 7,000 persons.
JEFFRIES PRAISES GANS.
Former Heavyweight Champion Thinks Him Greatest of All. A day or so ago big Jim Jeffries, the former heavyweight champion of the world, stated, while talking to friends about the recent Gans-Britt fight, that Joe Gans was the greatest fighter in the country. "I think Joe Gans the greatest lightweight we ever had. In fact, I consider him a much better man than McGovern, Dixon or Kid Lavinge in their best days."
NELSON PICKED GANS.
Battling Nelson, than who, probably, no man is better qualified to judge, said that in his opinion Gans would win. He thought the colored champion a better boxer than Britt, besides being a harder hitter.
CALL OF THE PHYLLIS WHEAT-
LY CLUB
After two months' rest the Phyllis Wheatley club is called to meet Thursday, September 26, 1907, 3:30 o'clock o. m., at the home of Mrs. Laura J. Harlan, 107 Lewis street.
During our vacation death has entered our club and claimed one of our most worthy, influential and beloved members, Sister S. J. Early. The Phyllis Wheatley Club was organized thirteen years ago at the A. M. E. Sunday School Union by Mrs. C. S. Smith. Sister Early's name was one of the first names enrolled. During all these thirteen years Sister Early was chairman of the Temperance Department and did a great work. She carried out faithfully the motto of the club: "To Lift as We Climb." Many of the members of the club attended her funeral. Suitable resolutions were read and flowers bearing the love and sympathy of the club were tenderly placed upon her casket.
Since our last meeting a very interesting letter has come from far away Africa from Mrs. Altha Brown Ellison, to whom the club sent a small purse and box about one year ago. This letter will be read at the meeting and all will be glad to hear of the joy and sunshine this little expression of kindness from us carried to those in Africa.
A very entertaining program has been arranged for this opening meeting as follows:

On account of the grand rally and basket dinner quite a number of the members and friends of the church assembled and the meeting was enjoyed spiritually as well as financially. The members spared no pains in making the spread very appetizing indeed, and every one left feeling as if he had been fed until he wanted no more. Rev. Smith speaks in complimentary terms of his members and friends for their faithfulness thus far this conference year and he takes this method of thanking them for the noble services rendered and prays God's blessing upon every one of them.

USE
Kuhn's Capilline
TO INCREASE THE GROWTH OF HAIR AND REMOVE DANDRUFF.
We think this preparation will give entire satisfaction when used to arrest decay and falling out of the hair. If used as directed, it will tend to change dry, wiry, discolored hair to glossy and luxuriant tresses, and will keep the scalp clean and healthy. It is germicidal and antiseptic, and will relieve dandruff in a short time.
