FINANCIAL RALLY HELD AT GROUNDS Sunday Afternoon, November 10. IN INTEREST OF THE INSTITUTION. REPRESENTATIVES FROM MANY OF THE BAPTIST CHURCHES OF THE CITY BRINGS FINANCIAL OFFERING--SPEECHES BY PROMINENT PERSONS. The financial result of the rally for Roger Williams University, which took place on the grounds Sunday, November 10, from 2:30 to 5 p. m., will possibly not be known for the next several days. Notwithstanding the inclement weather on Saturday, Sunday dawned beautifully, and according to arrangements, many of the Baptist churches in Nashville prepared to take charge of the new site. The arrangements that were made did not lag one bit. The management, Dr. A. M. Towhsend, Revs. Wm. Haynes and C. H. Clark, had done all possible to make the occasion fittingly observed. Yet it was a notable fact that many of the so-called leading Baptist churches in Nashville contributed nothing whatever to the rally. While to the contrary some of the smaller churches were more than loyal on the occasion. It was noticeable that some churches could not be present, yet they sent in their contributions, as did the Sunday schools connected with them. This was not confined to the Baptist denomination, because, as Rev. Haynes, the president of the convention, stated on the grounds, it was a worthy cause and Nashville felt proud in the rebuilding of the school. There were scores of vehicles filled with enthusiastic supporters of the university on the grounds. The cars were laden with people who had gone to the end of the line and from there took conveyance in wagons. A more appreciative audience has not been seen on the banks of the Cumberland. The scene was enough to inspire any race loving people. On the campus can be seen all the beauties of Nashville. The river broadens at this point and this site can be easily called the educational Gibraltar, as it has that appearance from the river. A beautiful feature of the meeting was the excellent music furnished by the Sylvan Street Baptist Choir. The program was opened with prayer by Rev. Albert W. Porter, of the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church. The opening remarks were made by Dr. C. H. Clark, of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, while the following speakers made short and pointed remarks: Rev. Wm. Haynes, President of the Baptist State Convention; Rev. Jack Harding, Hawkins Street Baptist Church; Dr. A. M. Townsend, Treasurer of the Trustee Board, representing Spruce Street Baptist Church; Rev. W. S. Ellington, First Baptist Church; Prof. M. J. Sublett, the citizens' interest in Roger Williams; Mrs. V. W. Broughton, the women's interest; Mrs. M. A. Flowers, local missionary organization; Rev. H. A. Boyd, the national interest; Rev. A. W. Porter, the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church; Attorney T. G. Ewing, the legal fraternity. All of the addresses were interesting and pointed. They will be remembered long years to come as the opening epoch of the real beginning of the new Roger Williams. The purpose, as stated before, of this rally was to make some effort to put in heating apparatus. While only $52.30 was collected on Sunday afternoon, the indications are that many of the churches, through their pastors, that were not represented, have taken collections at their churches and will turn the same over to Dr. A. M. Townsend. The main building is about complete. Magnificent columns on the front of the building, designed on the old Southern mansion style, with porch almost around the entire building, beautifully painted, gives it a magnificent appearance from the pike and from the river. It can be seen fully a mile away as you approach it from White's Creek Pike. Many are the words of praise upon this noble effort being put forth by the people of Nashville in the rebuilding of Roger Williams. NASHVILLE. TENN.. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 15, 1907. A GOOD RECORD AT HOWARD. Mr. Wm. Harvey, the son of Mrs. Harvey, the matron at Atlanta Baptist College, and a brother to Miss Sadie Harvey, of the class of 1906, Fisk University, is making a great record at Howard University, where he is taking his medical course. Mr. Harvey was a student at Roger Williams before the disastrous fire, but after the fire, he, with a number of others, including C. E. Allen, Avant, decided to finish at the Atlanta Baptist College, of Atlanta. After this Mr. Harvey went to Washington, and it has been learned that out of the class of 108 he was elected unanimously as president. It will be the class of 1910 and will be the largest in the history of the University. COUNTY TEACHERS MET LAST SATURDAY. The county teachers held their meeting Saturday, November 9. The meeting was largely attended. The teachers showed they were interested in the work for the ensuing year. A very interesting program was rendered. Mrs. Miller recited Bryant's "Melancholy Days;" Mrs. Benton made an excellent address to her coworkers on the study of nature. She kept the attention of the audience for one hour and a half. The exercises were closed by singing "God be with you till we meet again." MEHARRY NOTES. The Y. M. C. A. services are interesting and profitable both to students and visitors, courses of lectures being delivered by the best speakers of the city. Mr. W. A. Holmes Vice President of the association, has been elected delegate to the International meeting at Washington D. C. President Merrill, of Fisk University, preached at the Auditorium Sunday. The sermon was greatly enjoyed. The Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical departments have nearly 500 in attendance, quite an increase over last year. Dr. Kumler is gratified with the attendance and work of the Literary Department. Dr. E. W. S. Hammond, Dean of Theological Department, reports an increase in attendance. The friends of Mrs. C. Thomas will be glad to know that she is now in charge of Millinery, Sewing and Domestic Science at Walden University. Mr. J. Frank Roberson, the efficient and popular President of the Y. M. C. A., is pushing things to the front. NATIONAL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION. It will be remembered that the National Athletic Association not long ago had their grand horse show, which was conceded to be the greatest event of its kind ever given by colored people in this country. Not being satisfied with the laurels won at the exhibition of some of the finest horses in the State, the young men composing the Association purpose to do even better in the future. Since the affair at Athletic Park they have been hard at work perfecting arrangements for the exhibition which will take place next year, and the indications to-day are that the horse show of 1908 will surpass its predecessor in every detail, as it will be conducted on a broader and grander scale. The association will announce from time to time through the columns of the Nashville Globe everything that will be of interest to the general public. COLUMBIA NOTES. Mr. Willie Merrill was here last week in the interest of the Fisk Glee Club, which will give an entertainment at the Grand Opera House, Friday, November 15. Mr. Willie Williams, of Hopkinsville, Ky., en route from Mobile, Ala., spent a few hours in the city, the guest of his uncles, R. G. and J. W. Johnson. Mrs. Rose Whitthorne died at her home on North Frierson street, at the advanced age of 90 years. Her funeral was largely attended at Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, of which she was a devoted member. Mrs. Rosie Green attended services at St. Paul A. M. E. Church Sunday Mrs. Green teaches at Lott's Chapel. Miss Georgia Akin will close her school at Santa Fe in two weeks with a grand concert. The brick work on the Odd Fellows' Hall is finished and the carpenters are busy flooring and fitting in windows, getting ready for the grand Thanksgiving Jubilee on November 28. Miss Magnolia Daniel, who has been in poor health, is very much improved and on the road to recovery. Immeasurable Good Accomplished. PROMINENT W. C. T. U. WORKERS IN ATTENDANCE FROM EVERY PART OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY. THESE EARNEST WOMEN, COLORED AND WHITE, ARE AFTER DRUNKENNESS. The thirty-fourth session of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union has just closed in this city. It is agreed by all that this is the most successful session held in the history of the movement. Many of the strongest and most able women of the race are connected with this organization. The delegation from the various states, while not as large as expected, reflected much credit upon the race. The entire sessions in the day time were held at the First Presbyterian Church, at the corner of Church street and Fifth avenue, North, from November 8 to 13. The following is a list of the delegates present: Mrs. Lucy Thurman, Superintendent of Colored Department, Jackson, Mich.; Mrs. V. W. Broughton, President of the state union, Nashville, Tenn.; Mrs. B. H. Gray, Nashville, Tenn.; Mrs. Frances Joseph Gaudet, Mrs. Myra Bass, Louisiana; Mrs. A. E. Adams, Mrs. E. E. Peterson, Texas; Miss M. A. Lynch, Mrs. M. E. Shaw, North Carolina, Mrs. — Preston, of Michigan. The local union among the colored women gave yeomen's service. The president of the local union Mrs. Jennie Ligon, with tse secretaries, Mrs. Nannie Perkins and Mrs. Della Crutcher, lost no time in making their organization felt in the convention. It was announced soon after the meeting adjourned that Mrs. B. H. Gray, of the Sarah J. Early local union and state recording secretary, has given her time to help in her department during the entire convention. She represented the Tennessee delegation. It was her earnest desire to awaken an interest in the cause of temperance throughout the state. She intends to travel during the incoming year for the cause of Temperance. The local committee appointed to take charge of the delegates and to secure appointments at the churches were Mrs. Ligon and Mrs. Gray. On the night of the close of the convention, which was Jubilee night, two of the leading colored delegates, Mrs. Gaudet and Mrs. Peterson, appeared on the program, attracting much attention and making forcible arguments before the large body at the Ryman Auditorium. It was stated in the columns of the Globe some time ago that Mrs. C. H. Phillips would direct affairs. It is learned since that the statement was misleading and that Mrs. Phillips had not been affiliating with the local union. The next meeting of the local union will be held at the residence of Mrs. J. P. Rhines on Monday at 2:30 p.m. m. Preston will be present and address the union. At Meharry. Last Sunday Meharry Auditorium was filled to listen to speeches on the prohibition of the liquor traffic. Dr. I. A. Kumler introduced Mrs. Vaybingen, Indiana State President. She had a pleasing, forceful and convincing tone and left her hearers wiser and more in sympathy with her cause. She said, among other important things, that the two great institutions bidding for the young men and women of the day are the saloon and the church; that the W. C. T. U. stood not for high license, but for no license of the saloon. She urged the medical students to ally themselves with the cause by not prescribing alcohol for patients. She was followed by the State Lecturer of Indiana, Mrs. Stanley, who said that the drink habit among women was largely due to the use of patent medicines and the prescribing of alcohol by doctors. At the close of the speeches Pres- ident Kumler arose and called to the stage an interesting little woman, and in a few felicitous words introduced her as a close relative of the Meharry Bros., formerly of the college bearing their name. Every eye was fixed on her. A stillness held on like that peculiar one preceding a downpour, then of a sudden broke forth a flood of applause, again and again, showing the characteristic gratitude of the race to its benefactors. Mrs. Jessie Crawford Butler, the name of the woman introduced, is also niece of Dr. J. A. Kumler. The different exercises of Walden and Meharry are proving of immense value not only to students but to the city at large. Drs. Kumler and Hubbard deserve the kindest thought and heartiest co-operation of all, and this they have. Mrs. Peterson at Mt. Olive. Among the noted W. C. T. U. workers at the National Convention held in this city this week was Mrs. E. E. Peterson, of Texas. Mrs. Peterson is known throughout the Southland and in many sections of the North by her life-long devotion to the temperance cause. She has stirred many an audience with her earnest and logical arguments in favor of temperance. It was one of these soul-stirring addresses which she has delivered time after time that she gave at Mt. Olive Baptist Church at 11 o'clock services Sunday. She said many good things and made the audience see the logic of her discourse. OLYMPIA LADIES' QUARTET. The only regularly organized lecture course in the United States supported by Negro talent traveling over the country, doing high-class lecture work, supported by musical talent from the very best institutions, is that of the Olympia Ladies' Quartet with headquarters in Cleveland, O. While this quartet has not been South as yet, it is planning to do in the early spring. This information comes directly from one of the members of the club in the person of Miss Hester O. Brown, the noted violinist, who starred in the great concert at Calvary Baptist Church in Louisville last Monday night. Miss Brown is sojourning for the present in the South, coming to Louisville to give three great recitals—the one above mentioned the next at the Eckstein Norton University, at Cane Springs, Ky., and the last to be at the State University, Louisville, after which she goes to spend a part of the winter at Pasadena, Cal., where her mother is residing for the present. Miss Brown states that she will not return to Cleveland before the first of January at which time she will resume her work with the Ladies' Quartet, after which an effort will be made by the Quartet to secure dates in at least two Southern cities. Nashville might easily secure one of these dates by an effort on its part. "The appearance of Miss Brown in Louisville was one of the noted events of the season," states an intimate friend in speaking of the recitals. GOVERNOR PATTERSON GIVES THREE PARDONS. Green Ware, a Davidson County Murderer, Was Among Them, Last Tuesday Governor Patterson granted two pardons to Davidson countians, one to Lee S. Mills, convicted of assault, and one to Green Ware, who was sent up for murder several years ago. Arthur Stephens, of Grundy county, sent up for five years for voluntary manslaughter, was also pardoned. Ware was convicted in 1963 in the Davidson county criminal court, for the murder of Teck Hall, an aged man, who, with a number of young men, Ware included, were out on a Christmas spree, drinking together, and in a fight, Hall was cut so badly that he died. Ware was charged with the crime, convicted and sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary. The governor pardoned him upon the recommendation of the judge, the state's attorney, the prosecutor and citizens, and on account of the facts as shown, that Ware bore no malice to the deceased, and that he was a mere youth when the crime was committed. The governor believes he will live up to his promise if released, to make a good citizen. SOIREE Miss Jennie V. Anderson, of 211 Seventh street, delightfully entertained last Wednesday night, November 13, and quite an enjoyable time was spent. Music and games were the features of the evening. Ices, fruit and cake were served. No. 45. HOLD A SECOND IMPORTANT MEETING Wednesday Night, November 13. IN THE DIRECTORS' ROOMS OF THE ONE CENT SAVINGS BANK-ABLE AND PRACTICAL SPEECHES MADE-IMPORTANT COMMITTEES APPOINTED-BEST OF HARMONY PREVAILED. The second meeting called by men interested in the development of the relations between the business and professional world, as affecting the Negro in Nashville, was held in the Directors' room of the One Cent Savings Bank on Wednesday night according to previous arrangements. At 8 o'clock it was evident that more interest had been created since last meeting, and that the directors' rooms would not be large enough to accommodate those that would respond to the call. Finally when the temporary chairman, J. S. Martin, called the meeting to order, and the temporary secretary, R. S. White, read the minutes of the previous meeting, it was noted that the following gentlemen were present: J. S. Martin, J. B. Bosley, C. N. Langston, A. N. Johnson, H. A. Boyd, D. Watkins, Geo. Boyd, Jr., J. Frank Battle, W. O. Tate, Hardy L. Keith, T. Clay Moore, J. West Bostic, F. G. Smith, H. T. Noel, J. P. Crawford, R. S. White, T. J. Bumpas, E. B. Jefferson and G. F. Anderson, representing the business and professions of Nashville. These men after expressing themselves were all unanimous in their opinion that the movement now on foot for some organization to take care of the people's interest in Nashville and Davidson County, was absolutely necessary. The chairman stated that he had not as yet been able to name a special committee on constitution and by laws, but that they would be named at this meeting. There were many eloquent appeals made to the Negro to exert himself in the business and professional world. One speaker after another brought out the fact that many of the so-called leaders of Nashville had by their stiffness, by their discourtesy toward the public, and by their seeming indifference to the masses, driven away much business from our enterprises. In other words using the language of one of speakers, "Their backs have been t hard. They have had the terray shell. Better put on a soft coat, enough to keep the body together. This was accepted by all to be one the most timely remarks of the ev ing. Then another speaker stated that the leading men of Nashville had in many things conducted themselves in such a manner as to drive people away and keep them afraid of them and in all, the meeting was harmouous and interesting. It was decided that a committee of three be appointed to send out special invitations to every Negro business and professional man in Nashville to be present at the next meeting. The committee is A. N. Johnson, H. A. Boyd and T. Clay Moore. These gentlemen will invite representatives from the smallest to the largest business enterprise to be present. The chairman further named a committee of three on constitution and by-laws. F. G. Smith, C. N. Langston and A. N. Johnson will constitute this committee. They are to start by next Wednesday night, November 20. A name for the organization was taken up and discussed. Many suggestions were made, but no name was agreed upon. At 10 o'clock the meeting adjourned. SPECIAL SERVICES. There will be services at the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, Notton, Sunday, November 17, it being the occasion of their "Great Fall Rally." The subject of Rev. W. S. Ellington's discourse at 11 a.m. will be "A Morning with John on the Isle of Patmos." The church choir, aided by the best musical talent of Fisk and Walden Universities, will give a sacred concert at 8 p.m. The public is cordially invited.

LEW ROBERTS 16 ARCADE The Cutlery Man. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1907. The interest aroused over the election in Kentucky last week by many of the citizens of this place is but a gentle reminder to those persons eligible to vote that some months ago the charter of Clarksville was changed and election for municipal offices postponed until some time next year. As the new year is scarcely two months away, it becomes necessary for colored electors and leaders true and tried, to consider ways and means by which the election of a colored representative to the city council will be assured. For many years Afro-American citizenship has had such an official, but the change of the charter changes the mode of election of aldermen from the wards to the city-at-large, making the election uncertain. Guthrie, Ky., Clarksville's next door neighbor, will take unto itself the dry pledge and henceforth be found on the "water wagon" after next Saturday, the sixteenth. Many Clarksvillians will no doubt look askance, as a constant migration to the above named place has been in vogue since last July. It is needless, however, to call the attention of those with bibulous desires that Hopkinsville is still on the map. November—the month with days dark, cold and dreary; rains and winds never weary—comes forth in this community as a rival to June for prospective brides. Announcements unauthorized have it that the central portion of the city, flanked both by the East End on one side, and "Gallus Hollow" the other, will produce surprises in this hymeneal line. One of the prospective benedicts is well known in Nashville, but the others have not yet had our acquaintance. Recalling the phrase "two as one" will exactly fit the business adventure of Ed. Broadus, not in the marital sense, but in the contraction of his two shining parlors into one. Mr. Broadus has for some time conducted two establishments and enjoyed good business, but the dryness of the city, the weather, and the closeness of the money marts caused many of his patrons to shine their own shoes. Monetary matters in Clarksville no doubt are but a counterpart of what is happening all over the United States. Salaries are being paid in checks and clearing house certificates, which are accepted as money by the merchants. Quite a unique entertainment was the "Mum Party" on Monday night at St. Paul Zion Church, the vanguard of a series of entertainments, for the purpose of liquidating an old debt. On entering persons were told that the ban on talking for thirty minutes was in effect and any infraction would cost five cents, not in clearing house certificates, but real money. A good sum was realized. From all parts of the city members of Warfield Lodge and friends arrived at the Masonic Temple Tuesday night to attend the dedicatory services. An informal reception was held by the reception committee, after which there was speaking by several members and a banquet. The Temple, when improvements are completed, will be one of the neatest in the state. Miss Carrie Patton, of Chicago, arrived last Tuesday and will spend several weeks, the guest of Mrs. Geo. Harper. Mr. Ned Smith, who attended the C. M. E. Conference at Chattanooga, returned Tuesday. Mr. L. A. Dabney returned from Memphis Wednesday. MURFREESBORO NOTES Mrs. Dan Battle and little daughter, Mary Katherine, and Miss Carrie B. Page were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Page Sunday. Mesdames J. M. Meford and J. B. Sublett are on the sick list. The Ladies' Embroidery Club was entertained by Mrs. Johnnie Williams Saturday evening. After two hours had been spent in work the ladies passed to the dining room, where a two-course menu was served, consisting of salmon salad, peas, beaten biscuits, pickles, sherbert and cake. Miss Cordelia Butler was guest of the club. Miss Idella Hatton is spending the week at Mt. Pleasant, the guest of Miss Etna Howland. Miss Rebecca Alexander was the guest of Miss Ceppie Miller last Saturday. Kitty Brook and Edith Morris spent three days at Rockvale. SPRING HILL NOTES Financial matters are giving the people a little inconvenience, though the clearing house certificates are giving the people some relief. Miss Ella Kenedy, who is engaged in State Missions, is carrying on some work here. Rev, Mr. N. A. Nelson filled the Rural Hill pulpit last Sunday at 11:00 o'clock, and at Spring Hill at night. The Spring Hill Post Office was burglarized last Friday night, but the culprits only got $12 or $14. No arrests have been made as yet. COMMUNION SETS. VESSELS WITH WHICH TO ADMINISTER THE LORD'S SUPPER. 523 SECOND AVENUE, NORTH, a husband and six children. Her remains were entered at Mt. Ararat. She was a member of Ebenezer A. M. E. Church. The Mt. Calvary Baptist Church had a rally last Sunday, realizing a nice sum. Mr. Ed. Buford is doing a great deal of repairing on the church and school here. Mrs. Susan B. Thompson left last Thursday for Hopkinsville, Ky., to spend a few weeks with her daughter, Mrs. Phil. H. Brown. On her return she will move to her home in Nashville, near Fisk University. The farmers in this section of the country are finishing the sowing of wheat, barley and winter oats. There is an unusual large acreage of wheat sown. The Railway Electric Company are rapidly pushing the construction of their new road. Mrs. Maggie Washington, who has been in the employment of Mr. Sandy Hayes the past summer and fall, has moved home. Mr. Randal Harper is the first man to lead his fattening hogs to the slaughter-pen. He had on the 12th a fine string of hogs hung on the pole. On account of the shortage in corn crops, many will take advantage of the cold snap and follow Mr. Harper's example. Quite a number of the leading sisters of the Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church visited Brook's Chapel M.' E. Church last Sunday night, and listened to an excellent sermon delivered by Rev. J. R. Reasonover, the pastor. Mr. Robert Bains, Sr., is still sick and is not improving. Miss Thomas Ella Mays, who has been living with Senator John Thompson, of the Franklin road, for several years, will soon move to Mrs. Susie Hunt's, of Elm Lane. Miss Marie Coleman has come to fill the vacancy of Miss A. E. Pace. We are indeed glad to welcome Miss Coleman to our home and office again. We were especially favored in our Wednesday afternoon consecration meeting in that we had the presence of two returned missionaries. Rev. Bro. Murff, who is in the States in the interest of the work in South Africa, under the National Baptist Foreign Mission Board, gave us a very interesting talk concerning the needs and condition of both the natives and the missionaries. He exhibited the work of children in their care, showing how much could be done if they only had means with which to work. Several personal donations were given him for his work. Miss Gertrude Smith, who has been at work in Cuba, is here resting and preparing to return. She is under the Pentecostal Board. She gave a very beautiful Bible lesson, emphasizing the need of real consecration to God and his service. Miss Florence Burnett, one of our Secretaries, returned last Thursday night after a six-week's visit to her old home and other points in Louisiana. Miss Burnett returned very much inspired after meeting many of the people hungry for Bible study and anxious to hear of the good work be- THE most sacred ordinance that can be observed by all churches is that known as the Lord's Supper or, in other words, Sacrament. We do not think it is in keeping with these sacred ordiances of the Lord's Supper in church now-a-days to try to administer it with out the proper vessels. They can have them made out of the best grade of guardruple-plated table silverware if they desire them. The Church Supply Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board has just received from their factory a new lot of this high-class ware, and would take pains in showing them to any one. The Prices are Within Reach of All and Terms are Reasonable. No church ought to be willing to use glass dishes or the like for these ordinances when they can have the best grade of silver at moderate prices. Mesdames Annie and Laura McKissack paid Mrs. Harland a visit last Friday, which was quite enjoyable. Miss Hattie Ewen and Mrs. Alice Armstrong, of Nashville, are the guests of Mrs. Laura McKissack this week. Mr. Harry Terrell and Miss Edith Caldwell were united in the bonds of matrimony last Thursday by Rev. G. T. Thompson. Mr. Andrew Ellison and Miss Alice Douglass were married last week. A "Tacky Party" was ordered and planned for last Saturday evening for the benefit of the M. E. Church, but on account of an unusual rain it was postponed until some future date. Mr. T. J. Carter, of Shaw Town, was mingling with many of his old friends last Sunday. Rev. M. F. Riley filled the pulpit at Mt. Area last Sunday. Mr. Alfonzo Brown and Prof. J. W. Stephenson visited Mt. Hope Sunday school last Sunday. Rev. G. T. Thompson filled the pulpit at the Baptist Church last Sunday. The Sabbath school at the Old Baptist Church is doing better work than in the past. Mrs. Lucy L. Sharber had a very painful accident last week while putting some concentrated lye into some hot grease. It flew into one of her eyes but it is thought the pupil is not injured. GOODLETTSVILLE NOTES. Mrs. Mattie Bonner is very ill. Mrs. M. Baker is gradually improving after a severe illness. Mr. Charles Finch, of Russellville, Ky. is in town this week. Mrs. Jessie Dozier is on the sick list this week. Mrs. Mattie Cantrell spent Sunday in Greenbrier. Mrs. Payne is still sick. Quite a number of people gathered at the Congregational Church Sunday afternoon. Mr. Taylor Warren was in town last Sunday. Mrs. N. L. Grooms has returned from Nashville. Mrs. G. G. Hall is indisposed this week. Mr. Kimmel Noel, of Springfield, is visiting here. Miss Amy May Haras has subscribed for the Globe. SMYRNA NOTES. The remains of Mr. Henry Childress, accompanied by friends and members of the society to which he belonged, were brought up from Antioch and buried here Tuesday. Mr. Lewis Brown, of Mt. View Settlement, was buried last week. Messrs. J. W. Tucker, Alexander Drennon, D. Charlton and E. Ward, who have been working in the South, have returned home. Miss Dilicie Ferguson, of Murfreesboro, was in our town. Sunday and took an active part in the services at the church during the day. The pastor, Rev. B. G. Strong, being absent, more time was given her to lecture in the interest of woman's work. EBENEZER NOTES On Wednesday morning death visited the home of Mr. Keeling and summoned his beloved wife.

She also visited Leland University, New Orleans, her old Alma Mater, where she was cordially welcomed. Mrs. Edwin D. Johnson, of Chicago, was the guest of Sunshine Home, from Thursday a. m. to Saturday p. m. Mrs. Johnson is a member of the Executive Board of the Women's Baptist Home Mission Society, whose headquarters are in Chicago. She is also a member of the Committee on Fireside School. She came to investigate the work and to help in the furthering of the same. She visited the National Baptist Publishing House, where the printing for the school is done, and was very much pleased with everything there. Her visit in the home was very satisfactory and she left very much gratified concerning the way in which the work had been carried on during the twelve months' absence of Sister J. P. Moore. Friday afternoon we invited the sisters from all around to come and meet Mrs. Johnson, and at the appointed hour we were delighted to see a room filled with women with earnest faces and anxiety to hear her message. An offering of $1.76 was taken for the Day Home. On Friday evening we had a very pleasant call from Rev. S. E. Griggs. On Saturday after five o'clock lunch and the usual twilight service that follows, Mrs. Johnson gave her parting talk to the family, commending them for the very excellent way in which they were keeping their records and encouraging them to continue faithful. THE MAN FROM BUFFALO Says Nashville and the South Need Men with Backbone to Supply the Shoestrings They Now Have. As a result of a news item appearing in the Nashville Globe of a few issues ago, one of the close observers of the conditions in the South, and especially the news columns of two of Nashville's leading papers, makes some comment upon the attitude of the Negro towards protecting the innocent children and our women. The letter was received by a member of the Globe force, being addressed to Mr. Henry A. Boyd, and comes from the pen of a very energetic Buffalonian in the person of Mr. C. A. Dickson, who has identified himself with some of Nashville's business enterprises, yet he has never visited the South, but is very much impressed with some of the movements begun down here and in some of the men who have visited his section of the country. In the letter, which was written during the month of October, Mr. Dickson deplores the seeming weakness on the part of the Negro men of the South in upholding law and order. Mr. Dickerson said in part, "In the Globe, the article about the white rape fiend, makes my blood boil. I understand there are about 15,000 Negroes in Nashville and not one has the courage or manhood to resent the rape. By the article it appears the fiend is known and is still at liberty. What manner of man is the child's father that he does not have the white man arrested?" He continues at length in this way, but makes one mistakes in the number of Negroes dwelling in Greater Nashville by about 30,000. ORGANS FOR THE Parlor and Chapel One of the most beautiful pictures in the home, a church or a Sunday school, is an organ-one that is built to suit the home, the congregation and the financial condition of the people. This is what a National Baptist organ will do. The parlor organs are in three styles: Style No.2 is 5 octaves, action B, oak case only. Style No. 3 is 5 and 6 octaves, oak case only. Style No. 5 is 5 and 6 octaves, case is oak or walnut. Style No. 75 is our new design. It is quarter sawed, golden oak polish and is put up in a six octave case.

Mr. Dickson further calls upon the manhood of the South in the following language: "Are you men of the South such cowards, knowing the facts in the case, that you haven't nerve enough to swear out a warrant for his arrest and prosecute the case to the fullest extent? If you did, don't you think that the next white man who went to a Negro house and found three little children alone, would take a grand tumble and pursue the even tenor of his way?

After an apology to Mr. Boyd, assuring him that it was not intended for him personally, Mr. Dickerson closes the lengthy letter with the following: "Awake, my soul, awake, Shake off this foolish fear, Be ye cowards or be ye freemen, God helps those who help themselves." "The letter was replied to," states Mr. Boyd, "at length, and the gentleman in the North was given a better conception of the conditions as they prevail in the Southland. He was assured that his ideas regarding this section of the country were erroneous in many respects. That the exercise of the ballot by the Negro citizens of Tennessee was in no way denied, and that there were some of the strongest, most intelligent and most law-abiding citizens in this great Southern educational center as could be found anywhere under the stars and stripes, and that their first duty was the protection of their homes and next the stars and stripes." AN ENJOYABLE OOCCASION. A large number of the friends of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Goodwine assembled in their apartments on Eighth avenue, North, Tuesday night and participated in a most delightful social affair. The spacious corridor cleared, the floor, as smooth as one could desire, music that was most pleasing to the ear and correct as to time, the whole being lighted with almost the brilliancy of day, enhanced the pleasures of the brilliantly gowned ladies and the gallant gentlemen who delight in dancing. In the dining room, a splendid vision met the eye, while likewise, delightful refreshments were served. Mr. and Mrs. Goodwine were the recipients of many encomiums of the happy guests on the pleasant manner in which the evening was spent. A NOVEL CONTEST. The members of the H. T. G. M. Club are setting a mark for sociability that has seldom been eclipsed by any social organization in this city. The regular meeting of the club which was due to meet with Miss Mollie Berry, of Jefferson street, was made the occasion of an entertainment by that young lady that was unique in the history of the club. A Cobweb Contest. The double parlors and the adjoining room of the Corrington residence were a veritable maze of various colored cords interspersed here and there with club colors and banners, forming the three rooms, a huge irregular cobweb. Partners for the contest were selected by conundrums and their answers. To each lady was given a slip of paper upon which there was a question. To the gentlemen were given similar slips of paper which contained an answer. By this means each gentleman found his company for the contest. The several couples, each taking one strand of the web, began to unweave the web and wind the cord. The contest for the first prize resulted in a tie between the couples composed of Miss Hazel Thompson, Earl Harris and Miss Carrie Mildred Bryant, L. E. Johnson. In the draw off the first prize for ladies, a box of writing paper went to Miss Thompson; that for a gentleman, a pocket toilet case went to her partner, Mr. Earl Harris. The consolation prizes, a bottle of perfume and a box of bonbons went to Miss Esther Polk Berry and Mr. J. Frank Battle respectively. At the conclusion of the contest a delightful collation was served.. Those present were: Misses John D. Thompson, Carrie Mildred Bryant, Hazel Thompson, Esther Polk Berry, Alberta K. Davis, Bessie Martin, Mynnye Mae Hunter, Laura Polk, Elnora Berry, Messrs. Robert Polk, John Gray, William D. Boger, William Davis, Earl Harris, J. Frank Battle, J. O. Battle, Samuel Carter, Chas. Gordon, Lorenzo Johnson, John Flemings. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. This school was highly honored on Tuesday morning by a visit from Mrs. F. H. Crafts, of Washington, D. C. Mrs. Crafts is a woman of international reputation. She has traveled all over America and has visited all the important countries and cities of the Old World. England, France and Germany in Europe and China, Japan, Korea, the Hawaiian and Fiji Islands in the East. Mrs. Crafts addressed the school, giving the pupils some idea of student life in the East. The lecture was listened to with rapt attention and at its conclusion was roundly applauded. The Burrell Normal School football team has come and gone. The inclement weather spoiled what promised to be one of the greatest social events of the season. The Pearl team has gradually grown in the hearts of the people and Bennett Field would have been crowded on last Saturday, had Jupiter Pluvius been propitious. The young ladies of the school showed their pluck and loyalty to the sons of Pearl, for notwithstanding the rain, they turned out in their tallyhos and brought good cheer and happiness by their songs and yells to what would otherwise have been a dismal afternoon. With such loyal followers, the Pearl boys could not help but win, which they did in grand style. The Burrell boys made a fine impression on the people of Nashville by their politeness and good manners. They did not seem to know the game of football as played in these parties, but they were gentlemen in every sense of the word. Prof. G. N. White, the principal, is an exceptionally fine man and deserves credit for the manly deportment of his team. The race for perfect attendance between the 8-A and 8-B Grades is waxing intensely warm. Miss E. J. Pinkard won a star for her crown last week, the 8-A grades having only 3 absences for the week in a class of 47. Interest has reached a high pitch and whenever a pupil is absent from either class, the other members dislike it. in fact take great exception to it and want the absent pupil punished or put under some sort of discipline. Up to this writing, each teacher has a star in her crown on the blackboard with 5 absences each for this week, with two more days to run. Each teacher, Misses Bryant and Pinkard, claims that she will win, and woe be unto the pupils that are absent on Thursday and Friday. The High School banquet in honor of the Burrell-team was a decided success in spite of the downpour of rain. Odd Fellows Hall was brilliantly lighted and the young people were on hand in large numbers. The menu was elaborate and was exquisitely served. There was a super-abundance of everything. Prof. G. N. White made a short address, thanking the Pearl teachers and team for the royal treatment he and his men had received. Prof. F. G. Smith responded in a few appropriate remarks. After music, light conversation, singing and giving of school cries, the banqueters dispersed, carrying in pleasant memory the first annual contest between Pearl and Burrell. NEW COURT OF CALANTHE. NEW COURT OF CALANTHE. We are glad to announce to the Nashville public that a new Court of Calanthe, by name Martha Court No. 80, has been recently organized by Miss Emma Joe Cockrill in our city. It is composed of some of our representative ladies. At the installation of officers, the new Court was duly presented to the Grand Worthy Counsellor, Dr. R. F. Boyd, by Miss Cockrill. It was a real treat to hear the splendid presentation speech made by the lady who is well up on all that pertains to Calantheism. The response by the Grand Worthy Counsellor, Dr. R. F. Boyd, was given in his usual pleasing and instructive manner. His words of congratulation and welcome were earnest and sincere. The officers were properly installed as follows: Miss J.

Howard, Rev. and Mrs. Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. Richardson, Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Vaughn, and Mr. J. Tucker. THE MISSES STUBBS ENTERTAIN. On Monday evening last Misses Margaret and Alberta Stubbs entertained in a pleasing manner, a limited number of their friends. Card tables were in evidence and many interesting games were played. Music was also enjoyed until a late hour, when a tempting menu of two courses was served. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Henry Price, Messames Jennie Mason, E. W. D. Isaac Jr., Misses Laura Coleman, Ruth P. McKinney, Mayme Brown, Sadie Winston, Messrs. B. J. Hadley, Glover Franklin, Cockrill, Kyles, Carter Turner, Johnson, Harris, and McKis sack.

A. DESERVED REBUKE. The colored press of the country express general satisfaction that Harry C. Smith, of the Cleveland Gazette, won out in his fight against Theodore Burton, the administration's candidate for Mayor. The victory of Tom Johnson is welcomed not so much because Tom is a better man than Burton, but because the election will probably eliminate the leader of opposition to Foraker in the most populous city in Ohio. In going outside of the party to rebuke Roosevelt for his actions in the Brownsville affair the Negro voters of Cleveland have done a creditable deed. "Justice must be done those discharged black soldiers" seemed to have been their slogan and they have won out. They have won more than the local fight for they served notice that the Negro of the North will not prove traitor to a man who in the face of opposition from the most powerful man in his party dared to speak in behalf of and fight for justice to members of our race. MR. FORTUNE'S FUTURE. According to the National Review, of New York City, the dean of Negro Authors, Timotheus Thomas Fortune, in Chicago, preaching lay sermons in institutional church, and on the making an examination with an to starting a new paper in the city City. The firm of Fortune and Person, under the management of which The Age was conducted so long, has been dissolved, Mr. Fortune receiving, it is alleged, $7,000 for his interest in the paper. While it was not made public whether Mr. Fortune received his share in cash or in notes, the price he received shows the value of a well-established newspaper. The $7,000, unless Uncle Tom was terribly in debt to The Age Co., must represent a minority of the stock or there would have been no change in the editorship of The Age. Be that as it may, though the whole journalistic world feels an interest in Mr. Fortune and it hopes that he will be soon turning out copy for a paper of which he will be editor. If he chooses Chicago or any other city as his field of operation, we did him God speed. The article in last week's Globe from the Independent, headed, "The Negro and Justice," is from a northern white woman now residing in the South. Her views as to the dangers which colored women are forced to face in some of the Southern homes when employed as servants, are in line with those expressed by Mrs. Mary Church Terrell. This article, we might add, was originally published before Mrs. Terrell made the speech in Battle Creek, Mich., which attracted such general attention. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1907. Tillman, speaking in Illinois, voiced the opinion that Speaker Cannon would head the republican ticket next year, while the democratic honor would go to Bryan. Tillman is not above giving taffy to the people of Cannon's home state. And, too, it was one time that he got into the newspapers without mentioning his favorite theme. Mayor Brown, as a sworn official, has no other alternative than to enforce all laws on the statute books, if he respects his oath; consequently, he should not be blamed for the enforcement of the Sunday closing laws. The putting on of the lid last Sunday calls attention to some of the laws in the city code which should be repealed. The South wants a native son as the democratic candidate for President, but we are of the opinion that its wishes will not be respected. The South is wedded to the democratic party. like the Negro is to the republican party. Each may cuss and discuss before the nomination, but when election time comes they vote in the same old way. One of the speakers at the meeting Wednesday night, held for the purpose of organizing a colored commercial organization, made an excellent suggestion when he urged upon the business and professional men of the race to come more closely in contact with the people. The business man who expects to succeed and to be of service to his race, must be to some extent a mixer. COMMUNICATIONS Passing of the "Good Negro." Almost daily there are announcements in the Southern newspapers of the death of some old ex-slave. The men and women who lived under the regime of slavery as slaves are rapidly passing away; but this is to be expected according to the allotment and limitation of human life. Were they blessed with the three-score years and ten, the conditional biblical allotment of man's earthly career, it is clearly evident that they have but a few more years to live. Hence the rapidly passing of the old ex-slaves is but the working of the ordinary law of nature. Were the accounts of the deaths of the old ex-slaves given as mere items of news out of real regard for their memory as once worthy men and women belonging to another generation and to another sort of civilization, then there would be no criticism of all this gushing in the newspapers over the demise of some "old black mammy" or some "faithful old negro" of the old type. There would be no mention of the passing of the "black mammies" and "black daddies," were it not that an opportunity is furnished thereby to take a fling at their equally worthy but more refined and intelligent offspring. Every such an account one reads in the papers of the South of the death of an ex-slave bears the same ear-marks of every other such announcement which has appeared in their columns for many years past. The fulsome newspaper write-ups which lay such stressful emphasis upon the good traits, honesty and faithfulness of the deceased "black mammy" or "daddy," have lost their hold upon the interest of the reading public. These attempts to stigmatize the living by eulogizing the dead have become so frequent as to grow stale, palling on the public taste. There is not any of the present generation who do not love the few remaining members of the past generation and will honor their memory when pass away. But it is no disparagement to them to say that they have left worthy representatives of their many virtues in their sciences, who are more competent and superior to them in many ways. The opportunities of the present generation have been superior to their fathers, hence it is pre-eminently better prepared to discharge its various duties and accomplish it multifarious tasks than were they. The sons have stepped to the fore with a broader mental horizon and greater and loftier incentives to prick the sides of their ambition than their fathers possessed. This keeping pace with the progress of the times, despite all manner of proscriptive opposition, has been a thorn in the side of the prejudiced opposers of the present-day Negro. These opposers lose no chance to make a wicked, vicious fling at him. This is perfectly patent by the constant attempts to show that the old ex-slaves possess virtues of which their children are devoid. The writers of these squibs of news know they are gross misrepresentations. But to keep the flames burning they pile on the fuel even at the expense of the dead. In what way is the past generation superior to the present? To show that men who lived out the most impressionable period of their lives as slaves are superior to free men with immeasurable advantages, is an impossible task. The newspaper's ence民iums so lavishly bestowed upon the disappearing ex-slaves of the "old school," as they term it, are not so much of respect for them as hateful malice toward their children of the new school with opportunities which are being utilized. JADECEE. THE FLEUR-DE-LIS ART CLUB. The beautiful home of Mrs. J. West Bostic, was the scene of a jovial group of club ladies Thursday, October 31. Those present were Mesdames Sutton Griggs, A. M. Townsend, H. A. Cameron, J. W. Bostic, W. R. Baker, S. P. Harris, D. A. Hart, C. O. Hadley, R. P. Moore, A. G. Price, W. B. Vassar, with Mesdames A. N. Johnson, Lewis and Hughes as guests of honor. The usual method of voting on names was dispensed with and before the arrival of the guests, the club unanimously elected Mesdames Lewis and Johnson members of the club by acclamation. Then the program as announced at the previous meeting was carried out. The solo by Mrs. Cameron was rendered beautifully. Her sweet voice thrilled the very soul and delighted her hearers. Next came a paper on "Good Housekeeping" by Mrs. Harris, which was full of excellent thought and showed that the writer knew how and where to clean and beautify a house. The club requested Mrs. Harris to permit this most excellent article to be printed in each of our colored papers along with other notes of F. D. L. A. Club, so that more housekeepers may read and be benefited. All the while the ladies were plying their needles, each one striving to do more and better work this club year than ever before. A short, interesting talk was also made by Mrs. Lewis. At this point the hostess welcomed the ladies into the dining room, where was found a cheerful color scheme of yellow and white prevailing. The ladies enjoyed the daintily prepared four-course menu highly and bidding the charming hostess and each other a cheery good-bye, departed to meet with Mrs. H. A. Cameron, 1025 Eighteenth avenue, North, November 14, at 3 p. m., where Mrs. Hart will render a solo, and Mrs. Baker will read a paper, "The Nineteenth Century Woman." The Query Box will also be inaction at the next meeting. WILLING WORKERS. The Willing Workers' Club of Kayne Avenue Baptist Church are certainly a busy lot of people. They meet regularly every Monday night and are highly entertained by some of its members. On Monday, November the 11th they met at the residence of Mrs. Fred Johnson. After the regular business routine was transacted an appetizing repast was served, consisting of ices, cake, etc. Those present were Prof. A. L. Anderson, President, Mrs. William Amos, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Sims, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. Fred Johnson, Rev. J. C. Lott, Mrs. Janie Brown, Mrs. Colletta Turnbow, Mrs. James Gentry, Mr. and Mrs. Galter, Misses Mamie and Fannie Johnson, Drs. Stoutt and Harris. At the close Mrs. Fred Johnson sang a solo that pleased all present. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. P. A Sims, 916 Division street. HOUSE PARTY AT PEGRAM,TENN.

Moores, Walter Nicholson, Robert Thompson, and Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Dumm, who chaperoned the party. After a stay of three days the party returned to their duties, feeling very much benefited by the outing. INJURED BY A FALL. Mr. Adam Reed sustained a serious injury Thursday about noon. He was assisting in moving a piano at the corner of Church and High streets. Those moving the instrument lost control of it in some way, and Mr. Reed being beneath the stairway, the piano fell on his head, causing what is thought at the time of going to press contusion of the brain. He was immediately taken to the City Hospital, where his wounds are being attended. Some doubt is entertained as to his recovery. Much excitement prevailed in the vicinity of the accident. The patient was resting well Thursday evening. FISK VS. KNOXVILLE. Coach Giles left Thursday morning with fifteen wearers of the gold and blue for Knoxville where they line up with the mountain boys to settle the dispute as to which is entitled to the honor of supremacy on the 1907 gridiron. Last year Knoxville defeated Fisk on her own campus, but it was all luck or rather carelessness on the part of Fisk players. True Knoxville had a good team, but it is also true that Fisk had a better team. Knoxville's strength is not known in local quarters this year, and the same may be said of Fisk, but their showing against Atlanta Baptist College, which has practically the same team this year as last, shows conclusively that Coach Giles has developed a team out of practically new material that will make any of them hustle. The boys are determined to defeat Knoxville, who are equally as determined to win from Fisk. So a great game will be played in the Mountain City to-day. ALLISON GETS HIS LEG BROKEN. While participating in a practice foot-ball game of the Meharry team, Mr. Guy Allison had one of his legs broken. The accident occurred Wednesday afternoon. This removes for the season one of the strongest players on the Meharry team. Allison was the strong right half and had made good more than once. It was he that made the sensational run last season for 35 yards for a touchdown against Fisk University. The team will feel his absence very keenly, and may tend to weaken them in Saturday's game. On Thursday it was reported that Allison is resting easy. Dr. F. A. Stewart, the attending physician, entertains no serious results. Allison is rooming on Wharf avenue. 4.

On Sunday night at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, an incident was brought to light that was very sad and which excited the sympathy of all present who are in the least inclined to be of a forgiving nature. Dr. Clark, the pastor, stated that he had a beautiful object to snow the audience, the story of which can best be told by the following letter: Nashville, Tenn., November, '07. Elder Clark: Kind Sir:—It is emergency that causes me to humbly beg of you, also congregation, the sympathy for a poor fellowman that has met with misfortune. The majority of my days have been spent in the vilest of sin. Just one year ago I became aware of my future destination, should I continue to lead the life that I was living, so I concluded to lead a different life. I prayed to God to teach me to serve him and I do sincerely believe my prayers were answered. I have been incarcerated in prison now over two years and this has caused me to entirely reform. I humbly ask you to deliver this message to your congregation and ask them one and all to pray for me that I may live closer to Christ. Here is a hat rack that I make a present to the church, and I hope it will be accepted, and if so, state to your congregation by whom and where it was made—in the Nashville State Prison by George Payne. I also send a walking-cane that I make a present to you. Several days ago I sent a saddle to you, but I do not know if it was delivered. Sincerely hoping you all to pray for me, I am, An humble believer in Christ, GEORGE PAYNE, Sta. A., Nashville, Tenn. MISS THOMPSON GOES TO MISS ISSIPPI. Miss John D.

The editor of the Globe made an amusing miscalculation last week. His birthday was on November 9, but somehow or other he imagined that November 8 was November 9, and invited friends to partake of his hospitality on Friday. The next day he found that he had made an error and invited the same friends to a repetition of the proceedings of the preceding night. PASSED AWAY. Mrs. Alice Marshall, after fourteen months illness, passed away at her residence, 2120 North Vance street, last Thursday morning. The remains were conveyed to Mt. Gilbert Cemetery, White's Creek.

A number of friends witnessed the affair. Lanier-Trammell. The marriage of Miss Annie Trammell and Mr. R. J. Lanier was beautifully and impressively solemnized at 8 o'clock last Wednesday evening at the home of her parents, No. 200 Third avenue, South. The ceremony was performed by Rev. B. Bolden before an altar of palms and ferns, in the presence of a large gathering of friends and relatives of the contracting parties. To the strains of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, played by Mr. Caesar Cooper's Orchestra, the bridal party entered the room. The maid of honor, Miss Frankie Trammell, preceded by the bride, beautifully dressed in white, carrying a large bouquet of bride's roses, leaning on the arm of her father, Mr. Frank H. Trammell, was followed by the groom and best man, Mr. John Ronnie. It was a beautiful scene long to be remembered by those who witnessed it. Many costly and beautiful presents were received. Bell-Hoskins. A wedding of interest to many of their friends was that of Miss Eva Hoskins and Mr. Robert Bell, which was solemnized Tuesday night at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Ella Darden, on Williams street, by Rev Wm. Flagg. The house decorations were attractive and elaborate, the house being arranged with tall, graceful ferns, palms and cut flowers. Miss Addie Fite was at the piano and rendered Mendelssohn's wedding march as a processional and intermezzo during the ceremony. Dr. Frank Strong sang a beautiful selection. Miss Sarah E. Flagg was at the piano, and the programme of wedding music was unusually beautiful. Miss Ella Darden, who was the maid of honor and only attendant, wore a lovely blue flannel trimmed in white silk braid, with a white girdle, slippers and gloves to match Her bouquet was of roses and carnations. The best man was the bride's nephew, Mr. Geo. Darden. The bride entered with the best man and she was lovely in her gown of white organdle. Following the ceremony, the bridal party, relatives and friends were highly entertained and served from the bride's table, which had a mound in the center loaded with all kinds of fruit. The most attractive thing was the bride's cake, which had in it a darning needle, ring and a dime. Miss Queenie Arnold drew the ring; Miss Viola Flagg, the needle; and Mrs. Warfield, the dime. After the reception Mr. and Mrs. Bell, who received a large assortment of costly gifts, left for their home on Jefferson street. --- CARNATION CLUB. Mrs. Geo. W.

Pearl High Vs. Burrell. On last Saturday, Nov. 9, the Burrell Academy football club made its initial appearance in Nashville as the opponent of Pearl High School team. It had rained continuously Friday night and Saturday and the field was muddy and heavy, making fast work an impossibility. However, the weather was not bad enough to prevent the attendance of about three hundred lovers of the sport nor did it dampen the ardor of the younger set who yelled lustily for the red and white throughout the game. Pearl, recalling an ignominious de- feat in the mud last year at the hands of St. Louis, was determined to show that they could move in the mud; and it developed during the game that they are pretty good "mud horses." Burrell won the toss and chose to defend the north goal. Davis kicked for Pearl to Burrell's right tackle, who fumbled the ball, Pearl getting it, and scoring a touchdown in about two minutes. Pearl kicked again and the game was on in earnest. By a series of forward passes, end runs, and line rushes the High School boys succeeded in making four touchdowns and kicking three goals, netting them a total of twenty-three points, while Burrell was unable to score. The line up of the teams was the same as published in the Globe of last week. For Burrell, Portlock and Brewer did the best work, while for THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1907 LAST WEEK MADE HISTORY—PANIC IN WALL STREET—BIG DROP IN STOCKS HIRSHBERG BROS.

Full-back Davis continues to be a terror to opposing rush lines as was shown in this game. It should be said to the credit of Burrell that they are new to the game, and that they displayed considerable grit and determination. They are a gentlemanly set of fellows who must eventually succeed. Two halves of twenty-five minutes each were played. The officers: Referee, Dr. Smith, Pearl; Umpire, Prof. Brown, Fisk; Field Judge, Mr. King, Fisk; Head Linesman, Mr. Hurt, Meharry; Time keeper, Dr. S. S. Caruthers, Meharry. Pearl is booked to leave for Louisville Friday night, where they play Central High School on Saturday. Having played tie games with Louisville for two successive years, it is believed that the Tigers can now turn the trick and take the game. Here's hoping. Fourteen players and three teachers will constitute the Louisville party. The Globe representative will be in the "push" also. Howard, 16; Tuskegee, 0. The Tuskegee team which plays Meharry on the local gridirons to-morrow, is making quite an extensive trip in which they have met some of the best teams of the country. In the contest with Howard University, last Saturday in Washington, the southerners went down to defeat to the tune of 16 to 0.

Howard is supposed to have the strongest colored football team among the eastern schools and the showing made by Meharry to-morrow will have much to do with the rating of the Southern and Eastern team for the championship. Tuskegee Vs. Meharry. To-morrow at three o'clock the referee's whistle will call together two of the strongest football teams in the South, and a great game is promised. Tuskegee comes with a long string of victories to her credit, and while Meharry has not played a hard game this season, the team is in the best of condition, and carefully trained. In fact, the strongest team that ever represented the crimson and black will be trotted out on the gridiron, and QUAD. their rivals will be the tried veterans of the "Wizards" borough from the black belt.
