HORSE SHOW AND CARNIVAL SPLENDID INAUGURATION OF NEW PASTIME. Hundreds of People Witness the Two Nights of Amusement. ATHLETIC PARK SCENE OF MANY FINE ENTRIES OF HORSES AND RIGS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHTS—DRIVING AND RIDING BY LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—SPLENDID EXHIBITION OF HORSEMANSHIP—EVERYBODY DELIGHTED—NATIONAL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION CONGRATULATED—DUE MUCH CREDIT—ITS FUTURE BRIGHT. The first Horse Show and Negro Carnival ever held in Nashville, was by far the greatest exhibition of thoroughbred steeds ever seen in this city. It was also the most noted society event of the year. Although on Monday the rain began with a fine mist in the early morning and rained continually throughout the day, and the greater part of the night, the management of the Athletic Association, who had charge of the Horse Show, had determined to carry out their part of the program, and at 7:30, the I. O. I. band, which had paraded the streets all day in a covered wagon, opened the program by playing an appropriate tune for the occasion, "Moving Day," which became the popular air throughout the Carnival. The rain came down in such torrents until at 8:30 the entire program was suspended until Tuesday night. Tuesday dawned beautifully. Although a little cool, it only made it pleasant and very agreeable out of doors. Tuesday night, by 7 o'clock crowds of gaily dressed women and men were passing in at the main entrance, while numerous rigs, drawn by some of the best Tennessee and Kentucky thoroughbreds were entering the rear gates to the park, which was lighted up with twenty-four arc lights arranged in a circle around the entire Athletic park. A beautiful program was arranged and for the first time in the history of Nashville, the citizens were favored with the opportunity of seeing what their people owned in the way of horses and rigs. It was 8 o'clock when the president, J. Blaine Boyd, of the Athletic Association, announced that the program was ready and that the first exhibition would be single horses in runabouts. The entries, as they passed in view of the judges' stand, proceeded to exhibit their trunouts, were as follows: Boyd & Battle, by J. Frank Battle and Miss Bessie L. Martin; Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Bowling by O. C. Presley and Mrs. Bowling; Boyd & Battle, by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. O. Boyd; Wright Adams, by Mr. and Mrs. Wright Adams; J. S. Martin & Co., by Mr. Tom Harris and lady; Mr. John Smith, by John Smith and Miss Clida Paskel; Mr. Sherman Reeves, by Mr. Sherman Reeves and Miss S. E. Hatcher; Dr. G. H. Bandy, by little Ruth Ellen Bandy; J. B. Kennedy & Co., by Mr. Edward Kennedy and Miss Bessie Lay. With this unsurpassed array of speed, pedigree, style and appearance, they drove around in front of the grand stand amid the cheering of the vast crowd of spectators, and to the strains of some of Nashville's best music. The contest was on. The judges, close observing, far seeing, and determined to give the first prize to the real winner, paid strict attention to each runabout as it passed in view. The contest continued for 30 minutes. At the conclusion, it was decided that the ris of Boyd & Battle, driven by J. Frank Battle, in company with Miss Bessie L. Martin, had won the first prize. The turnout of Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Bowling, driven by O. C. Presley and Mrs. F. C. Bowling, had won the second prize. The next feature was a saddle horse contest. The entries showed that no little time and palms had been spent in preparing for this occasion. Riding habits and costumes, fitting and appropriate, were seen in the part. The entries were as follows: J. B. Kennedy & Co., one horse by Mr. Edward Kennedy and one by Miss Bessie Lay; Mr. Sherman Reeves, by Sherman Reeves and Miss Susie Hatcher; O. C. NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1907. Presley and Miss Bessie L. Martin. Mr. Thomas Harris rode his own horse. With the above seven high spirited, high stepping, beautiful saddle steeds, the ringmaster gave he signal and all was off for the sharp contest that was before them. They cantered around in view of the stand, and indeed it was a beautiful sight. Special mention must be made of the three ladies who rode with the grace and ease of experienced horsewomen. It was not an easy task to pick the winner, but finally the judges decided that the horse owned by Mr. Sherman Reeves and ridden by Miss Susie Hatcher, had won the first prize, while Mr. O. C. Presley's steed, mounted by himself, was the second prize winner. The third entry was a "free-for-all" sweepstake and created much amusement. The entries were as follows: Mr. N. Berry and Miss Clara Frierson; Mrs. Q. Hamilton's turnout driven by Miss Bessie L. Martin and Miss Georgia Bradford; the rig of Dr. and Mrs. Bandy, by little Ruth Ellen Bandy; J. B. Kennedy & Co., by Mr. Edward Kennedy and Miss Bessie Lay; Mr. W. H. Adams alone; Boyd & Battle, by Mr. J. Frank Battle and Miss Eleanor Battle; Mrs. L. F. Davis alone; J. S. Martin & Co., by Mr. Tom Harris and lady; Mr. John Smith, by John Smith and Clida Paskel. It was in this race that the judges gave the first prize to the beautiful horse owned by J. B. Kennedy & Co., known as "Black Bess." While the second prize was by J. S. Martin & Co., whose rig was driven by Mr. Tom Harris. To keep the interest, amusement and enthusiasm of the crowd at a high pitch during the intermission between these exhibitions, the Association had prepared other amusements. A wrestling match was pulled off, and received no little attention. The champions of the South had met to decide the championship. It was a wonderful exhibition of strength in the new art of wrestling. The crowd went wild as Geo. Hicks, of Chicago, and James Phillips, of Nashville, both experts in the profession, argued on the mat for the high honors. Geo. Hicks succeeded in winning the best two out of three, but his opponent gave a battle royal, contesting every inch. The Georgia Minstrels, which occupied one side of the park, received liberal patronage and gave a good performance. Long before the hour for closing arrived, it was evident that the public, as well as the owners of horses, were not satisfied with one night's exhibition. Hence it was decided at once to continue the Carnival through Wednesday night, and this announcement was made by the management. Without any forewarning, except the little announcement that was made on Tuesday night, and without any advertisement through the day, on Wednesday a large crowd assembled at the park long before 8 o'clock, and amused themselves in inspecting the rigs and listening to the concert by the band until the program was on. The entries on Wednesday night were almost similar to those the night before, excepting it was noticed that new entries were on hand. The first was a single harness runabout contest. J. S. Martin & Co., by Tom Harris and Miss Whitmore; J. B. Kennedy & Co., by Will Smith; Mr. Lem Grant and Miss Jennie House. Although the number of this entry was not as large as the night before, the contest was as close, as each entry was known to be of the highest class. The full-blooded horse of Mr. Napier was in the park but did not enter. Hence the contest was between the three. The judges gave the first prize to J. S. Martin & Co., horse driven by Tom Harris, while the second prize went to The next entry was a saddle horse contest. Dr. Noel, two horses, one by Dr. H. T. Noel, another by Miss Susie Hatcher; J. S. Martin & Co., by Tom Harris; O. C. Presley, two horses, one by O. C. Presley, another by Miss Bessie L. Martin. After a spirited contest, the first prize went to O. C. Presley's horse, ridden by Miss Bessie L. Martin. While the second prize went to Dr. Noel's horse, ridden by Miss Susie Hatcher. The third entry was a double rig. Only two entries were made. J. S. Martin & Company's beautiful double team, driven by J. S. Martin and C. H. Langston, and Dr. G. B. Bandy's team which was dirven by Dr. and Mrs. Bandy. There being but two, the first prize was awarded to J. S. Martin & Co., while the second prize went to Dr. Bandy. In the free for all closing sweep stake there was no first prize awarded. The Horse Show, by its popularity, seems to have already been decided upon as a real need to Nashville's annual entertainments. It is a foregone conclusion that the Athletic Associa- (Continued on Page S.) HOMIGIDES. DAN HOWSE SHOOTS LUTHER ARMSTRONG—DAN GOREY, AN EX-POLICEMAN; KILLED BY JOHN HAYWOOD. Saturday morning Dan Howse, 18 years old, shot and killed Luther Armstrong, 19 years old. The killing occurred on Jo Johnston avenue, between Quarry street and Twelfth avenue, North, about 6:25. The trouble leading up to the tragedy was brought on, it is said, by the wife of Armstrong on Friday morning calling to the mother of Howse to come over to her house. Howse replied that his mother was busy. This seemingly angered the Armstrong woman and she began cursing him he stated, to which he retaliated in kind. She informed her husband of the incident and he went to see Howse about it. From what can be learned the matter was not satisfactorily set tled between the two men Friday night, so on meeting the following morning the trouble was renewed which ended in the death of Armstrong and the imprisonment of Howse. Howse claims that when they met Armstrong said: "Did not you like what I said last night?" and after some words drew his knife and started toward him. He told him to stop, but Armstrong continued to come on, he said, despite the fact he had snapped his pistol and it failed to fire. At the second trial it fired and the bullet pierced the forehead at the inner corner of the right eyebrow, causing almost instant death. After the shooting Howse ran away and succeeded in evading arrest; but later on in the day he seems to have come to the conclusion to face the consequences of his deed, either from the knowledge that there was no permanent escape or believing in the justification of it; so he went to the police station and surrendered. He was given a preliminary trial and bound over to the Criminal Court and lodged in jail. The remains of Armstrong were taken charge of by the undertaking establishment of Taylor & Co. Late Monday afternoon a difficulty started in Roberson's saloon on Third avenue, between Gorey, an ex-policeman, and John Haywood, which ended a little later on, just round the corner on Jo Johnston avenue, in a more serious encounter. The two men had been separated in the saloon by the proprietor and bartender, it is said, Haywood being gotten out of the back way and Gorey going out of the front. Roberson's bartender, L. W. Simpkins, as reported, states that when he became aware of the trouble between the men, Gorey was striking Haywood on the head. Soon after the men had left the saloon they met on Jo Johnston avenue. Gorey, it is said, started for Haywood with a knife, whereupon the latter defended himself by throwing a soda water bottle at his antagonist hitting him on the head from the effects of which he died about five hours later at St. Thomas Hospital, where he had been taken. Gorey's record and reputation as a policeman is, well known. He was a determined man and fearless and once aroused woe betided the object or him who had stirred his anger. His manner of treatment in handling men and women of color who crossed his path was of a character and nature to inspire dread and terror. When at any time any of them fell under the ban of his displeasure, they trembled, and well might they. Haywood was arrested and placed in the city prison. He stated that after escaping from Gorey in the saloon he thought the trouble was over, but meeting him on Jo Johnston avenue, Gorey started for him with the same knife he had drawn and intimidated him with while beating him in the saloon. He said that he had to stop him. Knowing the desperate temper of the man when aroused, he knew that his own life was not worth the snap of a finger if Gorey ever reached him with the knife. He knew that he would have been cut to pieces in the least possible time. Haywood doesn't deny his part in the fray, but stoutly maintains that he had to stop Gorey in sheer defense of his own life. Of course, Haywood, who claims that he struck only in pure self-defense, must try his cause before twelve men of Gorev's peers, yet he may hope for justice, because those twelve men to whom he must submit his cause will be under oath to God to render a just, impartial and unprejudiced decision. John Haywood's preliminary trial, which was on the docket in the City Court Tuesday, was continued until Friday morning owing to further investigation into the details of the case. One witness only was produced who heard Haywood "muttering threats" against Gorey. Others must be found to refute Haywood's statement of self-defense and the statements of Roberson and Simpkins. THE NATIONAL W. C. T. U. CONVENTION. As the time draws near for the National Convention of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, which is to meet with the local Unions of Nashville, November 6 and 7, questions are being asked if the convention will be a National Convention or will it be a sectional convention? Will all the local unions of the city and state be represented? A Globe reporter has been trying to find out for the past two weeks whether or not the arrangements and plans that were originally outlined will be carried out. Mrs. James Bond and Mrs. V. W. Broughton, both prominent workers in this organization, are out of the city, and Mrs. C. H. Phillips, who is in charge of affairs, and one of the executive officers, has not been interviewed, having been in Texas attenuing other meetings. Mrs. Geo. Moore knows nothing of the arrangements, and has not been advised as to what part their Union is expected to take. Just who the national representatives will be has not been learned, but the indications are that the meeting will be largely attended from all sections of the United States. Part of the program has already been made up, and it is noticeable that the Jubilee Singers are to take part in the same. This will mean that unless the troupe at Jamestown is drawn upon they will have to be supplemented. A WHITE RAPE FIEND—A PICTURE AGENT. The home of Mr. Henry Beasley at Ebenezer, a short distance from Greenwood Park, was entered Monday evening by a white beast, who claimed to be a picture agent. Finding no one at the home of Mr. Beasley but his three little girls, the eldest of whom was only 12 years of age, the flendish brute, like an untamed tiger, sprang upon her and raped her. The wolf after accomplishing his hellish purpose told the little half-dead girl that if she made an alarm he would kill her. This white rape fiend still lives to repeat his dastardly deeds upon other little colored girls. The children having no mother were left at home, the eldest having charge, while the father was away at work trying to provide for them. What must have been the father's feeling to return to his home and find his little girl the mangled victim of an human white hell hound? What would have been the feeling of any father to find his home thus desecrated? That same brute would have been the loudest and fiercest on the trail of a colored rape fiend no worse than he. That girl has a father and the mangler of his child still lives out of the hand of the law. The world should not be large enough for Beasley and the despoiler of his little innocent to live in, and the despoiler not brought to answer for his diabolical crime. CARNATION CLUB. Mrs. P. A. Simms entertained the Carnation Club Monday afternoon at her residence, 917 Tenth avenue, South. The house was charmingly decorated throughout, the color scheme being white and green. After the business hour was over a very nice program was carried out. Mrs. C. L. Woods read a very interesting paper, subject. "Sween before your own door;" Mrs. S. W. Harlan recited "Jealous Love." The meeting was interrupted by a surprise marriage, the contracting parties being Mr. Rov Smith and Miss Josie McCullom, Rev. G. B. Taylor offlating. Mr. and Mrs. Smith will reside on Deluge street. At six o'clock the guests were invited into the dining room, where a three-course lunchon was served, with ices and confections. Those present were Mesdames P. A. Simms, H. M. Burns, P. A. Washington. H. Pullen, C. L. Woods, W. M. Rucker, Hal Duff, Sldney Bond, W. S. Amos, S. W. Harlan, F. A. Turner, Geo. W. Ward, C. Battle, Robert Ralph. The guest of the club, Mrs. Henry Flovd. The club will meet at the residence of Mrs. H. Duff 920 Edgehill street, next Monday afternoon. No. 40. BISHOP PHILLIPS' [GREAT FEAT AT DALLAS TO FINANCE TEXAS COLLEGE. Located at Tyler, Texas, With A Large Surrounding Territory. BISHOP PHILLIPS PRESIDED OVER THE FIRST EDUCATIONAL CONVENTION OF THE THREE TEXAS CONFERENCES—HIS WATCHWORD WAS NINE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR TEXAS COLLEGE—THE PEOPLE OF HIS DENOMINATION AND THEIR FRIENDS RESPONDED LIBERALLY—GREATEST FINANCIAL EFFORT OF CHURCH. On Sunday night Bishop C. H. Phillips of the C. M. E Church, returned to the city after an absence of several weeks. With the Bishop came Mrs. Phillips and daughter, Miss Lady Emma Louise Phillips, who has also been absent from the city most of the summer. The party came direct from Texas, where a strong effort has been put forth to do some good work. A Globe reporter in a conversation with the Bishop learns of the accomplishing of one of the greatest religious feats in the history of the church by a man of the race. His mission to Texas, upon leaving Nashville, was to preside over the first Educational Convention of the three Texas Conferences of his church, determined to raise the sum of $9,000 for Texas College, at Tyler, Texas. He comes back to the city proud of the liberality of the Texas members, who went beyond what was asked of them. The watchword for this first convention was $9,000; but by the extra efforts put forth it was found that the delegates, members and friends had contributed $11,514.25, or more than $1,900 above what the Watchword of the convention demanded. This broke all former records in Texas and the bishop is justly proud of his efforts in this matter. "It is known in church circles," said Dr. Phillips that there is a great deal of rivalry between the members of the church in Alabama and in Texas. A few months ago Alabama raised $11,364.49 for educational purposes, and it is one of the chief causes for self-gratulation to the presiding Bishop of the Texas Conference that his people went beyond the Alabamians in spite of the greater strength of the church in the latter State." Extra preparations had been made for this meeting by the people of the Lone Star State as this Conference was to be the first of its kind ever held in Texas. A large tent, fifty by ninety, was prepared for the meeting, and from 1,500 to 2,000 people were present at the various meetings held. Numerous prominent colored educators addressed the convention from time to time, besides addresses from white people of note. The purpose of the convention was to raise $9,000 for the colored college. The college although new and not yet known as other older schools is now on quite a prosperous basis with the big subscription just added to its funds. It was opened in January, 1895, in a dwelling in Tyler. Since that time it has grown until it now has 101 acres of land, a two-story frame building, a three-story annex to this, a two-story dormitory for men, an industrial hall and two cottages for teachers. The addition to the funds will be used in the building of a brick structure to be used largely for dormitory purposes. Laboratory and library equipment will also be added, besides an industrial course and has done no little to bring up the moral, educational, religious and financial standing of the race, Tyler, Tex., is one of the most prosperous of Texas cities situated in one of the greatest fruit growing districts in the South. The convention was welcomed to Dallas by the Mayor of the city who afterwards gave a check for $25 to Bishop Phillips for his work. Only $65 was donated by white people, the remainder of the large sum being raised by the convention. All of the subscriptions were in cash, and Bishop Phillips brings back to Nashville the entire amount of the subscription. The bishop is greatly elated over the showing made. He is a great believer PARADE BANNERS FOR LODGES. DOUGLASS LODGE No.21 CINCINNATI, OARIO PLATE I. We manufacture K. P.

He says on this point: "The education of the Negro is a sine qua non. Whatever may be said to the contrary, statistics and facts show that education of the right kind, the kind we are giving in all our church schools will lessen crimes among us. Our criminals do not come from the public schools, nor the church schools of the various denominations. They come from the idle, worthless and most illiterate classes among us. As the Negro advances in general intelligence, he builds on the moral law, he becomes a taxpayer and valuable citizen, he will become a more important part of the body politic, and will necessarily rise higher in everything that is grand and noble." "The effort to put the educational work of the church on a firm basis will not cease with this success." THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1907. NEWS OF STATE. "Off again, on again, gone again Finnegan." This quotation aptly fits the condition of the Montgomery County Colored Fair Company, which scheduled for a stock show last Thursday, Friday and Saturday at Dunbar's Cave. For three years this company has advertised the fair for the first week of October, but on no occasion has the weather been propitious to the promoters. Last Thursday with a brass band hailing from one of the classic villages, hard by the waters of the Cumberland, the promoters pushed forth their project with zeal only to have a damper put on by the downpour of rain. The next day more rain was in evidence but on Saturday the only favorable day, in the three years' effort, came and quite a number of people were in attendance. Rev, E. H. Smith, for three years pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, gave his farewell last Sunday night to an audience that taxed the capacity of the church. The retiring minister was at his best and delivered a feeling goodbye. He is booked to take up his new work at Harrisburg, Pa., October 21. A spirited piece of horse flesh came to his death by unknown causes. Last Sunday night the owner thought the night-riders had made him a visit; but it was just his own driver that caused the catastrophe. The inventory shows that the owner is minus a horse, one runabout buggy and a driver. Rev. Geo. W. Hampton has accepted the call of the First Baptist Church at Mound City, Hl. With Rev. E. H. Smith going to Harrisburg, Pa., and Rev. W. H. C. Stokes prospecting in Illinois, it seems that some of the Clarksville Baptist preachers desire a change of location. Mr. J. T.

Grant, of Nashville, addressed the Convention and the citizens on the "Beauties and Benefits of Unity: Upbuilding Home and Happiness by Helping and Association." The address, which was very instructive, was well received. Progress was reported along all lines, and the people are awakening to the importance of owning their own homes and having a bank account. Lawyer Grant became a member, and was chosen the Attorney for the Society. On Sunday, Oct. 5, Rev. Mr. Coleman preached the annual sermon, which was very inspiring to the members and the public. The purpose of the Society is to encourage its members to secure homes and to become, as far as may be, self-sustaining. Rev. Joseph B. Mullins is the General Manager.

Burdette, after several weeks of suffering, reached this office Monday, Sept. 30. For many years Miss Burdette was Corresponding Secretary of the Women's Baptist Home Mission Society, which has been, and is still doing a great work for the uplift of the people. She was indeed a great friend to this people and proved it in many ways. While we feel this loss keenly, yet we know our Father doeth all things well and we meekly submit to his will. Mr. and Mrs. Valentine, of Chattanooga, spent a very pleasant time with us on Monday of last week. Mr. McIntosh, of Mt. Juliet, gave the Bible lesson in our Wednesday afternoon prayer service last week. Subject: "Christian Growth." It was decided in our Workers' Conference on September 30 that the meetings would be held monthly instead of weekly, and the second Monday in each month was the day appointed. All are cordially invited to be present on this day at ten a. m., at which time the Day Home will be remembered in a tangible way. At the next meeting an address, subject, "Temperance," will be delivered by Mrs. S. E. Griggs. Miss Sylvia Moore, our bookkeeper, is on the sick list. We are glad to say at this writing that she is very much better and we hope to see her at her desk in a few days. The J. P. Moore Foreign Mission Society held its election of officers Monday night, October 7. The following persons were elected: Mrs. L. J. Rhodes, President; Miss A. M. Roberts, Vice President; Miss Hattie Claybrooks, Secretary; Miss S. E. Moore, Treasurer. DAY HOME CLUB. The Day Home Club held its monthly meeting in the Day Home, 531 Fourth avenue, South Wednesday at 3 o'clock, with Mrs. J. C. Napier in the chair. The meeting was intensely interesting. Ways and means for increasing the usefulness of the home were thoroughly discussed. The children are now being taught through the fourth grade. It was found to be urgently necessary to open for the benefit of the younger children a kindergarten as soon as possible. It developed that Mrs. Gertie Rambeaux, formerly director of kindergarten work in St. Louis, is to spend the winter in this city. Mrs. Rambeaux has an enviable reputation as a "kindergartner" and the club is anxious to have her take charge of this work in the home. Could $10 a month be secured for this department the club could arrange to employ Mrs. Rambeaux. Many of the members have been out of town for the summer, but are gradually returning. The vice president, Mrs. I. B. Scott, has effectively managed affairs during the absence of Mrs. Napier. The members are planning for hard, earnest work this year. Though some of the most energetic and enthusiastic workers are still out of the city, the members reported $8.98. The report of the mother and manager of the home, Mrs. Adah M. Waters, follows: There are now 16 day children in the home, 9 of whom pay five cents a day. The others pay less or nothing. There are 9 boarding children, from 8 of whom we receive $4.50 a week; twenty-five cents a week has been paid for the other one. There are many children who need the care and influence of the Home, but are unable to come and for want of money we are unable to take them. Friends have, last month and this, given us some of the things, the absence of which has seriously hindered the work. We still badly need chairs and tables anad money to paint and paper. The house is as clean as soap, water and labor can make it, but it still remains insightly. We have been seriously embarrassed for sheets, pillow slips, beds, mattresses and a cooking stove, aprons for the children and a place for their clothes. Some of these needs, we are more than thankful to state, have been supplied. The Lord is with us as is evidenced by his people showing interest in this work for children. Four cheap sanitary folding beds have been made and put in, cotton pads and springs secured, shelves for clothing put in, closets, a large range is now in the kitchen. It is partly the gift of Mr. Buttorff. Up to the first week in September a two-cap parlor cook had been used for cooking. Mr. Littlebaum of D. Loveman & Co., sent us this week a bolt of sheeting and six spools of thread. Mrs. H. H. and Miss Flora Wright, of Fisk University, a bolt of gingham with thread, buttons, pins and trimmings. The home was already indebted to these two ladies for sheets and other necessary articles; Mrs. J. J. Williams, dishes, soap and washing powder; Mrs. Green H. Hall, 1 sheet; Mrs. Richmond, bowls, pitcher, bed spreads; Mrs. ____ Davis, knives, forks and several articles of clothing; Mrs. Tyree, a bundle of clothes for children; Mr. Louis Goldner, $6.75 in meat. Cash Receipts for September.—Received from board and tuition $28.55; Congregational Church, Rev. Jas. Bond, pastor, $8.75; Fireside School, 70 cents; Missionary Society 1st Baptist Church, East Nashville, $1.05; Mrs. and Miss Flora Wright, $1.50; friend, 30 cents; Mr. W. F.

Dene emreeertentnerneannnennst THE SOUTH AND IMMIGRATION. Attorney General Boneparte who has been the object of jibes from the Northern press for many moons on ac- count of the Government’s prosecution of the trusts will doubtless receive equal attention from the Southern press for some time to come on ac- count of his opinion rendered in the case of a Cuban immigrant whose transportation was paid to this coun- try by the State of Louisiana. Mr. Bonaparte holds that it is as much a violation of the immigration laws for a state to pay the fare of an im- migrant as it is for an individual. His opinion, we think, is imminently cor- rect and we believe the courts will so hold when the case is brought before them for adjudication. The South is sadly in need of im- migrants, but is not willing to adopt the right means to encourage the class of foreigners it desires as settlers. In the first place it permits hoodlum gangs to trample under foot the laws of its own making, thus not insuring to the weaker elements of the body politic that even-handed justice which those from a foreign clime are led to believe exists in this land of the free, That all of this unpunished lawless- ness is not visited upon the Negro was made plainly evident by the treat- ment of a band of Italians near Hat- tiesburg, Miss, a few weeks ago. Again, the South permits the very worst demagogues in its whole con- fines to travel broadcast and adver- tise that it has what they call one of the greatest problems the world has ever seen, We say the South permits it, for there is scarcely a man from this section who is successful in poli- tics that does not feel called upon when away from home to talk longer upon the race problem, no matter what the occasion, than upon anything else, Usually, too, the one who can pleat the loudest is the one who has the best chance of being elected when he returns to his baliwick. Immigrants do not want to locate in a section which advertises a “prob: lem.” It is the very thing they are trying to escape when they come to this country. Nor do they want to locate in a section in which lawless: ness and low wages prevail, for the latter they have endured at home, and few men care to locate where they will not be protected. The “desirable class,” those from Northern Europe, it might be added, resent the adoption or enforcement of prohibition laws as a curtailment of personal liberty. These various hindrances are made known to the prospective citizen before he leaves his home or very soon after he arrives in this country and, as a consequence, he decides to try his fortune fn the Bast or West. "There is no denying that the South THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1907 needs immigrants. It will continuc to need them for years to come to develop its vast resources, Its labor supply does not equal the demand. But if common sense would get in the saddle, relegate the blab-mouthed politicians, see that simple justice is done to in- habitants regardless of nationality and thereby keep in the South many capable and industrious men who seek other and more congenial climes, and bay better wages, it would not care a rap about what the Attorney General ‘night say about the immigration laws. And when the immigrants come, as they assuredly will with improved con- ditions, they can be assimilated with- out the South being affected with the anarchistic tendencies so patent in the foreign element of the North. ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY, ‘The announcement in last week's is sue of The Globe that Roger Williams University, through its board of trus tees, had come into possession of one of the most beautiful sites in the vi- cinity of Nashville, and that in all probability the school will be re. opened this year, is welcome news to the colored people of this’ city, irre- spective of religious belief. The peo- ple of this city are thoroughly ac: quainted with the work of this institu- tion under the old regime and are ful- ly cognizant of the many benefits which our people derived from the school before that remarkable series of mysterious fires destroyed the prin- cipal buildings. They have longed to see the school re-established, and be it said to the credit of the Negro Bap- tists of the state, the University is about to be re-opened mainly through their own individual efforts. We are especially pleased to note that the new Roger Williams is to have an exclusively Negro faculty, ‘with such a sterling man as Prof, Johnson as president. This is a new venture for Nashville, but we believe that It will be one for the best inter- est of the school and the race, It will increase the loyalty of the Negroes to the school and Will be a source of in- spiration to every ambitious student ued attends, Meharry, with its fac- ulty composed in the main of colored mer,—successful practicioners in the ity; the Theological Departments of Walden and Fisk with the Rey. Dr. Hammonds and Henderson as Deans, are the pride not only of the students who attend but of the whole race. And so it will be with the New Roger Wil- liams under the new dispensation. The Globe wishes Prof. Johnson and the determined men who made the re- opening of the school possible all the success that their noble fight de- mands, IS IT COMMEROIALISM? Scarcely a week passes but that some man is murdered in this city, yet it takes a person with an excel- lent memory to recall a legal execution as a punishment for the crime, Some- thing is wrong. The juries, it seem, are so tender-hearted that they find more extenuating circumstances to send a man to the penitentiary than could be found by a Philadelphia law- yer. Are the men selected for jury serv: ‘ices culled from the whole country, for the especial reason that they have tender hearts? Or is it possible that commercialism is making itself felt even in the enforcement of our crim: inal laws? It must be the one or the other, for every rascal who takes the life of a fellow being, if found guilty at all, it is usually with “mitigating circumstances,” and he is sent to the penitentiary. The “mitigating circumstances’ seem to mean that the felon is worth more to the state—in money—as 4 miner in the convict camps or asa laborer in the factories at the pent tentiary than the salutary effects of a few legal executions upon the morals of the city. Be it understood, how. ever, that we refer to Negroes guilty of killing Negroes or poor whites guil ty of killing poor whites for the well to do guilty of such crimes seldom reach the penitentiary and are never ‘executed, Like any good citizen, Senator For- aker can approve the conduct of the President or any public _ officer on which such duties devolve in bringing offenders against the law to account, Criminals and law violators, great and small, should be punished. Let swindlers and offenders in the railroad, oil, mdit, steel or any other business be made to feel the sufficient law of the land. All honest men will approve this. But in attempting to punish the guilty the innocent should not be included, and the just powers of tw& Government should not be ex- ceded.—The Nashville American. How about the innocent colored sol- diers in the Brownsyille affair? The Civil Service Commission, it seems, has at last put some energy into the effort to correct some of the abuses charged against the local po- lice forces. One of the “hullabaloos” was raided a few nights ago on Jo Johnston ayenue and a large number of the habitues arrested. The place Was under the management of a man who was a candidate for alderman from the ward in which his saloon and “dance hall” are located, an it may have been a political move to accom: lish his defeat. We hope, however, that ‘it is the beginning of a movement to rid the city of these holes which do so much to lower the morals of the city. With Taft in the Orient, Root in Mexico and Mr. Roosevelt touring the South, each lauding the work of the President, the administration is re- ceiving almost world-wide advertise- ment. But will the* campaign enable Roosevelt to name his successor? Bishop Chandler, of Georgia, prob- ably had that Chicago preacher in mind who went into hysterics because Roosevelt drank a glass of cham. pagne at the St. Louis banquet, when he delivered his philippic against the “religious sissy.” epee COMMUNICATIONS. Fear, To The Nashville Globe: Mr. Alan Leroy Locke, of Phila- delphia, Penn., the brilliant and schol- arly young student who was one of the highest per cent winners of a Cecil Rhodes scholarship in the competitive examination for the selection of Amer- ica’s quota, is:now about to enter upon his four-year course at Oxford Uniyer- sity, one of England's famous seats of learning.” Mr, Locke is a Harvard man. He has the record of having completed a four-year course at Har- vard in three years, This is an un- usual thing to do, and the student who does it must not only be uncommonly studious, but must possess a mind of a high order of mentality; a working mind of depth, breadth and retentive. ness; an investigative, analytical and comprehensive mind; a mind highly imaginative and conceptive. Young Mr. Locke's mind possesses in a large measure these essential qualities as demonstrated by the record of his en. tire school career. After distancing every applicant in the competitive ex. amination, he was awarded one of the twenty coveted scholarships to which the United States is entitled according to the expressed intention and plan of Cecil Rhodes. Protests from different portions of this cotntry, especially from the South, have been made in England to the authorities ‘having supervision over the duly accredited Rhodes’ schol. ars not to admit young Locke into the great English university on the samc footing or equality with white Ameri, can students. But Secretary Charles W. Boyd, of the Rhodes Fund, who has been the recipient of the protests, an. swering them with the authority o! Lord Gray and all of the trustees, says: “Alan Leroy Locke has been appoint: ed by the selection of the committee of the Pennsylvania Rhodes trustees, and their agents in England haye thc greatest respect for American opinion and never interfere on principle with the decision of the American selection boards. They regard this as an American, question in which {t would be a presumption for them to say a werd,” fs The reply of Mr. Boyd, voicing’ the sentiment of those managing the car rying out of Rhodes’ wishes with ref: erence to students accredited to Ox. ford under his will, was concise, point ed and final. It shows the opinion held by the authorities with regard tc the maudlin protests envenomed with prejudice. But it is more likely that ‘ly: ing at the bottom of the protests of the white American students and their friends is a secret fear of the former being outstripped at Oxford by young Locke, BY your permission, {t would be well to say that Locke has made good, and signally so, in one of the oldest and best of American univer. sities, and, therefore, it stands to rea son that he will not now either falter or fail with the goal of his ambition in sight.

Yor in- stance, a few students, a handful, from this country want to go to Hngland and change the time-honored customs prevalent there to accommodate their prejudice (rather their fear) of one colored student. Their protests have gone to pieces, and nothing remains for them to do, but to “get up and dust.” They must outrua young Locke because of being more ‘fleet of foot. No mere boast of superiority over him on account of color, without superior ,and merited results, will be very reassuring to their friends or comfortable to the feelings of the dis- gruntled quota of white American students. When young Locke, a high Harvard man, Was awarded a Rhodes scholar- ship, then began hatching of schemes by the successful white applicants to defeat his entrance into the great Eng- lish university on the same terms with themselyes. They know tnere must he old hustling on their part to eclipse the record Locke is going to make, and thereby hangs a tale. Young Locke will enter the stretch with the leaders and finish with the foremost? JADECEB.

Prof. Jasper Tappan Phillips, who some time ago was elected to the chair of languages in the Tyler College, Tyler, Tex.; left the city Thursday for his new field of labor. It was thought that Prof. Phillips would remain in this city and study dentistry, but the school authorities continued to write for him, so he decided to teach at Tyler for one year. BISHOP TYREE WILL PREACH AT ST. JOHN SUNDAY. On Sunday morning at 11 o'clock Bishop Evans Tyree will preach at St. John A. M. E. Church. It was only after an urgent appeal by Dr. Haigler and the officers of the church that Bishop Tyree consented to preach, his extensive tour through Oklahoma and Texas having greatly fatigued him. He is one of the hardest workers among the bishops in the African Methodist Episcopal Church. He is truly devoted to his church and seldom declines when called upon to perform a duty. It goes without saying that St. John will be crowded on Sunday morning, for the people of this city, irrespective of denomination, love and reverence Bishop Tyree. The choir will furnish special music for the occasion. LINEN DAY HOSPITAL "Linen Day" will be observed at Mercy Hospital next Wednesday, Oct 16, by the Ladies' Board of that institution. They will appreciate any thing donated in way of towels, pillowslips, sheets, etc. MRS. SUSIE CARTER. President. MRS. HARRIET A. BOYD, Vice President. SURPRISE PARTY.

PAYNE CHAPEL PUTTING ON A NEW DRESS. The work on Payne Chapel by tanners, paper hangers and carpenters in preparation for the Conference, which convenes there October 31 to November 4, is nearing completion and makes quite a change in the appearance, especially on the inside of the church. Rev. Flagg and his congregation of earnest workers are to be congratulated.

Next Sunday is quarterly meeting day, the last one of this Conference year. Dr. I. H. Welch will preach all day. Monday night Bishop B. F. Lee, A. M., D. D., will preach.

Mrs. G. L. Jackson, president, opened the religious services. Reports were made of missionary work by the members, such as visiting the sick and aged, seeking those unconverted and urging them to accept Christ, encouraging children to attend the Sabbath school, and the young people to attend the Allen Endeavor, etc. Reports were very encouraging, showing that much work had been done. Special prayer for the unsaved was offered by Mrs. Lizzie Allen. Miscellaneous business was transacted, after which the president asked Dr. R. H. Early to address the ladies. The address was very encouraging and inspiring. Several committees were appointed: Mesdames Peyton, Campbell and Harlan to arrange for a special sermon. Mesdames Lewis, Adams and Sharp to solicit some aid from the Sunday school. Mesdames Tyree, Peyton, and Foster to solicit aid from the Allen Endeavor. At the close of the meeting refreshments were served in two courses by Mrs. Campbell, Mrs. Crump and Mrs. Harlan. Waitresses: Little Mary B. Jackson, Leon Saunders and Laura Crump.

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. Telephone 895.

Solicitor for Complainant. 10-11 4t An exceptionally beautiful and artistic tea in all its appointments was given October 8. at 5 o'clock by Mrs. Preston Taylor complimentary to Mrs. D. N. Crosthwait, of Kansas City, Mo., who has been spending some time at her old home with her former friends. The guest list included many old friends of the honoree. The beauty of the Taylor home was seen at its best, and reminded one of fairyland. In the beautiful living room pink roses and ferns filled the flower receptacle. Frappe was served during the evening in the reception hall. The guests numbered thirty-nine, all of whom were seated for on elaborate menu of several courses. The table in the dining room was one of rare pictorial beauty. In the center was a bouquet of autumnal cosmos and ferns in a vase of green and gold, PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. Many improvements are being made at this school, which are both useful and ornamental. In a few days the exterior view of the building will be as pretty and as pleasing to the eye as any school building in the city. The superintendent of schools, Prof. H. C. Weber, has directed the school painters to paint the wood-work of the building, giving it two coats and also to paint the tin roof. The first coat has been applied and the building has begun already to look bright and fresh. Some days ago the principal asked that a brick walk be laid across the front yard so that the girls of the First Floor would not have to pass out of the school yard to the sidewalk and back again in going out at recess. The Superintendent at once granted this request and had the bricks sent down and soon the girls will have a new brick walk. Two nice, large, new clocks now hang on the walls of the rooms of the Manual Training Department. The girls in the cooking classes can now cook their foods and boil their eggs by clock-time. Your reporter hopes that none of them will be so absent-minded as the famous Lessing. It will be remembered that once upon a time Lessing was so absorbed in study that he forgot to eat. When the pangs of hunger touched him he called for a boiled egg. The maid brought the egg, whereupon Lessing commanded her to leave, saying that he would boil the egg himself. On departing, the maid cautioned him to boil the egg just five minutes. After remaining away some little time, the maid returned to find Lessing standing before the fire, egg in hand with the watch at the bottom of the kettle in the boiling water. Girls, please do not boil the clocks! The Principal has been directed by the Superintendent to select some wall paper for the rear entrance hall and walls above the stairway for this school. This improvement will add greatly to the interior appearance of the rear hall. The dining room of the Domestic Science Department will soon possess a very useful and ornamental piece of furniture in the form of a sideboard The Superintendent last Tuesday authorized Miss E. B. Moore, through the Principal, to select a sideboard to her own taste at a cost of $25. This school is on the boom. No stone is left unturned to make Pearl High equal to the best school of its kind in the country. Prof. H. C. Weber has the confidence of the colored people. They believe that as long as he sits in the saddle they will get the Rooseveltian "square deal." Prof. Weber makes no fuss. He blows no horn and beats no drum. He is too modest and his nature too refined to advertise himself. He abhors horn-blowers. He would never acquire the name of "Fuss and Feathers." But in a quiet, unassuming way he performs his duty. The thinking colored people see the results. Napier School, Hadley School, Manual Training in Pearl High School, additions to Carter, Knowles and Trimble Bottom Schools are all the result of his work. The following young ladies of the High School were present at the Horse Show and Carnival on Tuesday night. They lent some beauty and lustre to the occasion: Misses Minnie Fite, Ophelia Alexander and Eleanor Battle, of the Senior Class; Misses Edwina Smith, Clara Frierson, Beulah Perkins, Bessie Morgan, Brucie May Ewing, Louella Mayberry, of the Middle Class, and Misses Vannoy Webster, Lena Barnes, Addie Allison and Bessie Garret of the Junior Class. THOMAS-BRYANT. The marriage of Mr. Nelson E. Thomas, of No. 165 Lafayette street, and Mary C. Bryant, Past Secretary of Seven Seal Temple No. 16, and Chronicler of Q. E. C. No. 115, I. O. I., was quietly solemnized at the residence, of Mrs. Nathaniel Jones, No. 1709 Third avenue, North, by Rev. L. J. Edwards, pastor of Salem Church. Only the family and a few personal friends were present. The couple were the recipients of many useful and valuable presents, among which were 1 handsome center rug, from G. H. R. Tyne; linens and water cooler, Mrs. S. S. Turner; one set table linens, Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Elkins; towels, Mr. Wm. Potterson; lace curtains, Mr. Morris and Misses H. and I. R.

The Walden ‘Cubs were out Friday afternoon for a second time under the careful leadership of Prof. Randals, their 1907 coach, Prof. Randals is in hopes of turning out one of the best Preparatory teams in the South this season, The first scrimmage will take place next week. Everything looked gloomy for the “Cubs” at first, but the prospects now look bright for a fast team. They have a few open dates that they would be very glad to fill. Yesterday Mr. Chas, Alexander ar- rived and spoiled the hopes of many new men who had anticipated holding down right half for the Cubs of 1907. Ebon Hudson, the “Cubs’” last year's left half, was out for the first time Friday. Hudson looks good to make his place, for he has the speed and weight. Chas. Williams, “the Cincinnau Kid,” made a fine showing at left guard. The Cincinnati boy played left tackle for the “Cubs” last year, but will look after left guard this season, L. Morrow, the last year quarter- back captain, was doing some of his oldtime work Friday. _ “Bob” Dill, the last year’s center, ‘will look after that end of the game for the “Cubs” this year, _ Wymon Brady was out for the sec- ond time Friday. He will look after ‘right tackle for the “Cubs” this year, and if he looks after it the same as he did last year, it will certainly be looked after carefully, and don’t you forget it. John Banks of the Blue Grass State will be down in a few days to take his place at right end. Harry Myall, the last year right guard, is expected to run down any day to take his old stand. Myall spent the summer in Chattanooga He writes that he is in the pink of condition. Joe Gans. A few days before the Memsic fight, Joe Gans announced his retirement from the ring. The old master has never done any of the Patti farewell before and may be trying to begin it, but here are his own reasons for quit- ting the game: “I have been fighting for seventeen years and that ought to be long enough to suit anybody, If I had been out for myself and could have got my hands on the big money T have earned for other people I might have been able to retire before. Everybody knows that T was down and out before the Goldfield fight. I took a raw deal [on the split of that $30,000 purse, but | helieve me, that $19,000 short end, wir |or lose, looked as big as a mountain to me. Then, I bet my entire end of the purse on myself. If I had lost te Nelson that day I guess I would have had to walk out of Goldfield, As { was I came out with quite a nice littl stake. Then the theatrical engage ments helped me along and I begar to lay some of the money aside. “I bought a corner lot in Baltimore and had a three-story brick building put up on it—a hotel. I named it the Goldfield hotel, because if it had not been for Goldfield there would not have been any hotel. “T had enough money to pay for the ground and put up a good building, but I could not see enough in sight to finish the place properly. That is why I came west this last time. You remember the papers did some guess- ing about my western trip, They said Gans was going to force Nelson into a fight. Well, they came close to the truth. I did come west to arrange another match with Nelson and we could have got $40,000 for the finish fight, “Then along came Mr. Britt and knocked Nelson off t.e perch. I could see my furniture going, but the match with Britt brought me about $20,000, counting the money I won on myself, and I got $9,000 for fighting Memsic. Thad figured on getting together $20, 000 cash and quitting the ring for good. I have managed to get $30,000 and now I’m geing into the hotel busi- ness.
