LARGE NUMBER OF PROMINENT EDUCATORS PRESENT. MEN AND WOMEN FROM ALL PARTS OF THE STATE ASSEMBLED FOR THE OCCASION— RAIN IN THE EARLY, PART OF THE DAY CAUSES DELAY IN BEGINNING OF EXERCISES—IMPRESSIVE SERVICES CONDUCTED BY REV. WM. HAYNES— PROF. SALES MAKES PLAIN TALK. According to predictions and previous announcements, Roger Williams University was formally opened Wednesday, January 1. The opening exercises were grand and imposing. Prominent citizens of Nashville and other parts of the state of Tennessee participated in these exercises. The program was scheduled to begin at 10:30 a. m., but the distance of the institution from the car line, and the interference of old Jupiter Pluvius, who seemed to get in his work early in the day, prevented the punctuality that was expected to characterize the opening. Notwithstanding this interference, a magnificent audience was on hand to take part in the program, which finally began at noon. The board of directors, the pastors of the city and other prominent visitors, were seated upon the platform. Promptly at twelve o'clock the president of the board of directors, Rev. Wm. Haynes, in a very neat and becoming speech, introduced the president-elect of the faculty, Prof. J. W. Johnson. After some introductory remarks as to the probable future of the school, the struggle to re-open it, the earnest desire on the part of the faculty elected, President Johnson introduced Prof. Geo. W. Scales, of New York, Superintendent of Education for the American Baptist Home Mission Society, who was asked to speak on the future policy of the Society. Prof. Scales introduced the subject in the straight forward, plain, practical manner, which characterizes the man. He assured the audiences the directors and faculty that the American Baptist Home Mission Society had lost none of its past interest in the educational work of the colored people of the South, but admitted that circumstances, rather than desires, had to some extent changed the future policy of the Home Mission Society in its educational work. He said that the Society would be in position in future to keep in operation all of its regular founded schools in the South, but would not be in a position to make improvements to expand its work, notwithstanding the fact that the entire board and each official of the Society were deeply desirous of doing so. Prof. Sales said, in part, that the Society fully intended after the two disastrous fires, which destroyed the old Roger Williams, to rebuild on the same ground, but it was finally thought best to purchase a new site, which they did, but after considerable counselling it was thought best to make the proposition to the colored Baptists of Tennessee to take charge of the school in their own name. school in their own name. Prof. Sales said that the authorities of the Home Mission Society used no perimeter and made no breach of a thronise or contract, when they sold the hold Roger Williams site. He said that neither of the buildings, nor any of the property supposed to belong to Roger Williams, were ever deeded to that institution, that the property belonged exclusively to the American Baptist Home Mission Society of New York, and it was their privilege to dis- pose of it without consulting the local board of trustees of Roger Williams University. However, as a matter of courtesy, they consulted with them concerning this sale and re-purchase. He said that he was greatly surprised to learn from leading authorities in the city that the colored Baptists felt that the Home Mission Society had broken faith with them, and did not really intend carrying out the last promise. He said that the present site had been paid for partly by the colored Baptists of Tennessee, $5,000 of which was furnished by the American Baptist Home Mission Society. He said that within the next few days all matter touching the title to the property would be straightened up and that this entire site, with all of its buildings, would then be decided over to the trustees of Roger Williams University, in trust for the Negro Baptists of Tennessee. These trustees would be elected and re-elected by the Negro Baptists themselves, and that the Home Mission Society was holding in readiness $15,000 to the credit of the Negro Baptists of Tennessee. So soon as they would raise $5,000 more, this $15,000 would be turned over to the trustees for the erection of a $20,000 dormitory. He said that the day had come when the Negro Baptists ought, should and must own and control their own institutions of higher education. He said that the time has come when Negroes in the South must work out their own problems and destinies, and it was not necessary to longer disguise this fact. He said that the Negroes of the state owned property sufficient, paid taxes sufficient, to show conclusively that they had the financial ability. The number of graduates turned out from these institutions of higher learning was a guarantee, that they were prepared to furnish their own teachers, faculties, trustees and other managers; that it was the purpose of the society to stand by them and assist them in every way possible until they should get on foot again. At the close of this speech, other responses were made by the members of the board of trustees and other prominent gentlemen. The services closed with a splendid collection for running expenses, and a considerable number of students was enrolled. Hence Roger Williams starts out with flattering prospects. There are scores of Tennesseeans scattered throughout the world who are making themselves felt in business as well as in the professions. This is particularly true of the younger element. A noted case that is worthy of commendation is that of J. Thomas Caruthers, a young man who finished with the class of 1907 at Amherst College with a brilliant record. As soon as he had finished, and are he could reach his Tennessee, home, he had been offered a position with the Manual Training and Industrial School of Bordentown, N. J. When in Nashville during the summer, he did not know whether he would accept the position or not. Since then he has visited the school, and information comes in a letter that he has accepted the position of instructor in that institution. He has the entire control of the Department of Agriculture with about 300 acres of farming land. This is the largest, colored agricultural and mechanical college in the North, and the placing of Mr. Caruthers at the head of this department is a distinct recognition to Ten-Mr. Caruthers is a constant reader of the Globe and has a host of friends in Nasityville. He declares that the Globe is the cleanest, the neatest, best edited and the most hewsy paper in the race, without an exception, and that as soon as the new library for the school is ready it will be but at the disposal of the student body. The state of New Jersey makes large appropriations to the institution yearly, and aside from this they receive their share of the Morrell fund. A GONDR OF TWO YOUNG PED. PLE. 1900.

EVERY ONE WORKING AT THE INSTITUTION ENJOYS HIS HOSPITALITY-LONG TABLES LADEN WITH THE DELICACIES OF THE SEASON-MR. HENRY ALLEN BOYD PRESENTS HIS FATHER, DR. R. H. BOYD, ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLAR GOLD WATCH-PITHY SPEECHES ENLIVEN THE OCCASION. The year of 1908 was begun by the employees of the National Baptist Publishing House in the employ of a most sumptuous repast prepared for MADKY/DE. R. H. Boyd, the manager. This was the second annual New Year's dinner given by the institution, and it has proven to be the most acceptable and by far the most enjoyable occasion in the year at the publishing house. Special arrangements had been made by the management, and every employee that could possibly attend had been especially invited. Some of them were on vacations, others were taking the holidays, while still some important ones were in, but in all a large portion of those employed at the institution was present. The dinner is only another manifestation of the real interest in each individual connected with that religious plant by its management. Dr. Boyd had determined to make every one happy on New Year's day. Finding that it was impossible to give individual presents that would suit every one, and at the same time please himself, he concluded long before New Year's that he would have each employee dine with him. Thus arrangements were begun for the dinner. Turkeys, chickens, hams, beef, roasts, pork, salads, fruit, nies, coffee, cake and cream, and in fact all the nice catables were on hand. The decoration and the serving of the dinner was directly in charge of Mrs Alice Douglass, the well known caterer, and Mrs. Emma Alford. The meals were prepared at Dwiggins, restaurant, while the cream was furnished by the Spa Creamery. Two of the largest turkeys seen in Nashville and two dozen chickens were the extent of the fowls for the occasion The tables circled the front of the building. The scene was enough to sharpen the appetite of one not hungry. But this was not so with any of the employees, as all were hungry without the sight of the table. They had worked from seven o'clock in the morning until three without stopping, except for the usual thirty minutes of prayer. Word had been given that the institution would not stop for the regular twelve o'clock dinner hour, but that, when the bell did ring, all would be expected to dine in the special dining room on the second floor, which had been prepared for them. At three o'clock Dr. Boyd rang the big chapel bell and it was not long before, every employee, had gathered around the tables ready to devour the eatables in front of them. The grace was said by Rev. C. H. Clark, Chairman of the Board, and then the battle was on. While the meal was being eaten, toasts were said by Mr. C. H. Burrill, foreman of the proof-reading room; Rev. Wm. Beckham, Field; Sec. retary, Mr. J. B. Grenshaw, Mr. D. A. Hart, General Foreman, and Rey. C. H. Clark. Just before the dinner was finished. COMMUNION SETS.

FOSTER ASSAULTED WITHOUT PROVOCATION—ARRESTED AND CARRIED TO STATION HOUSE—HAS BEEN AT BANNER OFFICE NEARLY TWENTY-FIVE YEARS—SECOND ASSAULT IN LAST FEW DAYS—DR. ROBB TREATED IN LIKE MANNER—FOSTER SWORE OUT WARRANT—KILLEN ARRESTED. The most cowardly attack that is yet recorded against a policeman of this city, and they are numerous, occurred last Saturday afternoon in the very heart of the business section of Nashville, when Patrolman J. J. Killen deliberately, and with apparent malice aforethought, clubbed Mr. William Foster, of the Nashville Banner force. The attack was deliberate and was made while the man was seated, which was against all rules. Had they been prize fighters, this would not have been permitted, and in case it was done the offender would have been rebuked. Striking a man when he is down is worse than cowardly. The report of the incident in the Nashville Banner says: "While seated in the doorway of The Banner office opening into the alley Saturday afternoon in his shirt sleeves and smoking a cigar, William Foster, colored, a trusted employee of the Banner, was the victim of an unjustifiable assault on the part of Patrolman John J. Killen. The officer belabored the negro repeatedly over the head with his club, placed him under arrest and gave as his reason for his conduct that he couldn't stand the way the negro had talked to him or "abused him." With blood streaming from the man's wounds the officer hurried on to the station house with him. There he placed the charge of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest" against him. In a short while thereafter Killen was arrested on a state's warrant sworn out before Justice Jake Levine by Foster, charging assault with intent to commit murder. He was released on a bond of $500. John H. Reeves signing as surety for the officer. "It appears that Patrolman Killen visited the mailing room of the Banner, which opens on the alley, about an hour before the assault and complained about some paper being in the alley. He finally accosted Foster about the matter and ordered it cleaned up after the work of the afternoon was finished." The officer, it is said, seemed insistent that it be cleaned up then, and was thereupon referred by Foster to the business office in the front, to those in charge of the paner. The officer is said to have called Foster a "damned smart negro," declined to go into the front office and left, threatening to give Foster a ride if the paper was not cleaned up. Inquiry reveals the fact that Killen did not complain to the office of the Banner. "He is then said to have made inquiry as to what time Foster got through his work. It is stated also by several that the officer remained about the place for some time. He finally accosted Foster as the latter was seated in the doorway of the Banner building. Those who witnessed the assault stated that Foster was seated when attacked by the officer, and that he had in no manner assaulted or touched the officer. The only words that were heard to pass between the men were words of Foster, who cried, as he tried in vain to dodge the blows from the rapidly descending club "Don't hit me any more." "Foster claims he had not been impudent to the officer, as the latter had charged, and that he had only answered the patrolman's questions when they were asked. He claims that Patrolman Killen struck him repeatedly with his club and then ordered him to go into the Banner building: that upon his refusal to go into the building the officer then declared him to be under arrest. It appears that the "resisting arrest" acts on the part of the negro consisted in his trying to dodge the licks he was getting all over the head from the club of the officer. An employee of the paper on the third floor heard the licks and looked out of the window to see what was the matter. Several who witnessed the assault stated that the officer slapped the negro with his hand or fist before bringing his club into play. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 3. 1908 "Patrolman Killen was accosted by a Banner reporter as he was hurrying the bloody negro out of the alley and asked what was the matter. He replied that he could not stand the way the negro had treated him or talked to him; that he had abused him. He made no pretense of the negro having attempted to assault him and said nothing about the negro resisting arrest. "Foster has been a trusted employee of the Banner for more than twenty years, has never been in trouble before and has the reputation of being uniformly courteous." The fair name of the "Athens of the South" has again been besmirched by the guardians of the peace. The city at large is not satisfied with the rumor, nor will the public willingly accept anything less than a rebuke to the one guilty of the offence. It's the same old story, ever old, but still new. A policeman wantonly assaulting a citizen and a taxpayer, without cause; an officer of peace, sweet peace, clubbing one of the best and most respected citizens of this commonwealth; a man that has worked for a score of years in the employ of the leading evening paper in the Volunteer State. What is to be done about it? Who is to be appealed to? How is the law abiding citizen to get protection? are a few questions that are now being asked. True, the brave officer was arrested and put under a $500 bond, charged with assault with intent to murder, but what will be done with the case? Will the city say to him, "We don't need the services of a man that is such a coward that he will abuse the position of peace officer by beating with his club a man, and without cause, simply because he is a policeman?" It has been shown time and again that the city police force is not responsible to any one for their actions. They are under bond, it is true, but what kind of a bond? What became of the officers, the question is asked, who beat up Dr. A. C. D. Robba a prominent physician on last Christmas night? What was done to the policeman that clubbed without cause Mills, the painter, who was going to get assistance to lay out his dead wife? What was done to the officer who shot the innocent boy in East Nashville some time ago? What punishment was administered the policeman that shot the Negro woman some months since? What action was taken by the authorities when the guard at the work house beat unmercifully a prisoner who was already under arrest and in the bastile, then trotted him through the streets to the city court to register another charge of resisting an officer? The Negro citizens of Nashville have joined the law-abiding, self respecting whites in their demand that this officer shall be punished, that the officer be at once discharged and that neither the city administration nor the police commission get in the way and block the prosecution. DASTARDLY ASSAULT. Last Saturday, between 6 and 7 o'clock, on a Jefferson street car there were besides several passengers a drunken white woman and the daughters of Mrs. Lowe, of Jefferson street. The Misses Lowe were quietly conversing to each other when this drunken woman got the idea into her head that they were talking about and laughing at her. She proceeded to tell the girls what she would do if they persisted, as she said, to laugh at her. The girls proceeded with their conversation, not paying the least attention to the woman, when she gave Miss Josephine Lowe, the elder sister, such a severe slap in the face that it was heard in every part of the car. This was resented by the other sister and the woman was then worked up to fighting heat. The fight would have resulted seriously for the girls had it not been for the timely intervention of a white man who chanced to be on the car. He pulled the intoxicated woman from the girls and quiet was restored. Notwithstanding the severe slapping and fright they experienced, the young ladies did not suffer any serious consequences. IN HONOR OF MISS GRIFFIN. The Misses Northern, of 1710 Patterson street, recently entertained a number of friends in honor of Miss Lizzie Griffin, who was married to Mr Talley on December 1. The house was beautifully decorated with bells. Games and dancing were indulged in until a late hour, when a three-course menu was served. Among those present were Misses Lillie Campbell, John Caldwell, Alexine Campbell, Eugene Page, Estella Berry, Leon Hurt, Minnie M. Toney, Milton Darden, Maggie Green Brown, Sadie Wilson, Percy Nelson, Sadie Stratton, Wilson, Jennie V. Harge, Lemte Stratten, Willie May Early, Cleeve Houston, Maud Webb, Willis Sumner, Floy Grimes, Denis Erwing, Eddie Lue Ray, Oscar Sublett, Della Ray, Jessie Sublett, Florence Berry, Webster, Olivia Weakley, Johns, Maggie Lue Cheatham, Mary Cheers, Cotton, Ethel Grimes and Pierce. The St. John's Day was observed Friday night by the Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Tennessee, under the Auspices of Prince Hall Lodge No. 1, East Star Lodge No. 20, Kirjath-jearim Lodge, No. 144 and Mount Nebo Lodge No. 67, with the following brothers composing the Committee on Arrangements: Brothers George Hill, Wm. Allen, A. M. Johnson, J. H. Adams, Rev. G. B. Taylor, L. H. Rogan, Chas. Henley, Chas. Maxwell, Jesse Scott, John Hendricks, Brother J. H. Adams, Chairman on Arrangements, and Brother Geo. Hill, Secretary; Brother L. H. Rogan, Chairman of Committee on Refreshments; Brother G. B. Taylor on music. The evening was one of a high festive nature, celebrating St. John's Day, an annual festive day in Masonry that is usually observed by the craft the world over. The program of this event was speaking and feasting. The Grand Master of the State of Tennessee, J. A. Henry of Chattanooga, principal orator of the evening, was followed by Rev. Preston Taylor, and T. P. Turner, of Pulaski. After the program had been rendered the audience was given over to conversation and congratulations. Then followed a fivecourse menu of refreshments that had been prepared at the hands of the following sisters of the Order of the Eastern Star: Mesdames Lula Johnson, Edna Scott, Sarah McEwen, and Ellen Henley. Every one present greatly enjoyed themselves and wanted to know when they must be called on again. Brother J. A. O. Broughton honored the occasion by presiding as usual in that air and manner that is his only as Master of Ceremonies. Music was furnished by the Cloyd brothers. The Globe must say that the occasion was one that seldom ever graces the public in its entirety as a family reunion of friends and fraternal greetings. WELCOME TO REV. G. L. IMES. A hearty welcome to the city of Nashville, in the form of a reception, was given Rev. G. L. Imes, the new pastor of Howard Congregational Church, on Monday evening, at the church on Twelfth avenue, North. A large audience was present, and the response of welcome was as flattering as has ever been given any individual. While the entire membership was not in attendance, their places were filled by citizens from the professional and business life. The following program was rendered: Music—Doxology. Invocation—Prof. H. H. Wright. Music—Glee Club. Introductory Remarks — Deacon J. C. Napier. Greetings from Union Church—Dr. C. W. Morrow. Greetings from Baptist Ministry—Rev. W. S. Ellington. Greetings from C. M. E. Church—Mrs. C. H. Phillips. Greetings from Presbyterian Church—Rev. Spencer Jackson. Greetings from Fisk University— Dr. G. W. Henderson. Greetings from Walden University —Dr. J. A. Kramler. Greetings from Roger Williams— President Johnson. Music—Fisk Glee Club. Greetings from City Schools—Prof. R. S. White. Greetings from Physicians—Dr. C. V. Roman. Greetings from Professions—Prof. J. W. Grant. Greetings from the Business Men— Henry Allen Boyd. Music—"Blest Be the Tie that Binds." It was fully eleven o'clock when the welcome addresses were concluded, after which Rev. Ims made a beautiful response, replying directly to each denomination, profession, business man and college. He expressed himself as being well pleased especially since he had already been informed that they were beginning to "Look like Nashville folks." He said that nothing could be more pleasing than that he and his wife could so soon find a warm reception by the people he is to lead. The entire program from beginning to end was entertaining. The master of ceremonies, Mr. J. C. Napier, had carefully selected the representatives from the various walks of life, to welcome the pastor. If the expressions are lived up to that came from the lips of those who responded, and if they voiced the sentiment of their various constituents and co-laborers, the new epoch of Howard Church will treble any previous one. A list of all the pastors that have served the church, in their order: Rev. Geo. W. Moore, assisted at intervals by Rev. Sterling Brown and Lorain Anderson; Rev. Wm. A. Sinclair, Rev. J. H. Whittaker, Rev. G. W. Jones, Rev. D. A. Culp, Rev. Eugene Harris, Rev. J. E. Mooreland, Rev. James Bond. Refreshments were served to all the guests in the Sunday school room after the speaking, and a general in production was indulged in, there being several visitors from other cities. MISS CLARK ENTERTAINS MISS RHOTEN. Miss Mary L. Clark entertained in a pleasing manner on New Year's eve at the beautiful residence of her parents, Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Clark. The occasion was given in honor of Miss Malinda Rhoten, of Tullahoma, Tenn., who is spending the holidays with her relatives, Mr. and Mrs. Lovell Landers. Miss Clark's home was decorated with holiday features in the nature of bells, holly, mistletoe, etc. Many games were played and joyous minth reigned supreme until a late hour, when a tempting menu was served. As the bells over the city announced the going out of the old year, the last of the guests bade the hostess good-bye, wishing her many returns of the glad New Year. Among those present were Misses Malinda Rhoten, Elsie Bass, of Chicago, Ruth P. McKinney, J. Dewitt Shorter, Nellie E. King, Bessie Matlock, Velma Mai Mosely and Willie Mae Andrews, Messrs. Lovell Landers, J. O. Battle, L. Boyd, Luther Miller, George Clark, Drs. Dickerson and Bailey and L. S. Gray. CHRISTMAS EXERCISES. A host of members and friends of Keil Church (Brick Church pike) gathered to witness the Christmas exercises on December 25, which were splendidly rendered under the supervision of Mrs. Petway and Miss Annie Robinson. Messrs. Ambrose Bennett, James Pennington and Misses Bertha Polk, Emma Raines, Francis Robinson, Maggie Hickman, Jennie Smith and Master Petway were the stars of the evening. CHRISTMAS DINNER.

HOLIDAY DINNER AT ROCK CITY Mr. and Mrs. Wash Bowling were host and hostess at a most enjoyable holiday dinner last Sunday at their home in Rock City. At the appointed hour the guests were led into the dining-room by the host, where all of the delicacies of the season were served. Those seated at the table were Mr. and Mrs. Jno. Porter, of Eastland; Mr. and Mrs. Willie Pucket, of Russell street, East Nashville; Mr. George Malone, of Eastland; Mrs. Nannie P. Porter and the host. The guests were so royally entertained by the congenial host and hostess that they were unaware that the evening shadows were fast approaching and that all must return home. Mr. Joseph Woodfork, of West Herman street, is able to be at his work again. What at first seemed to be a sprained ankle, as chronicled in last week's Globe, proved, upon closer examination, only a severe wrench which yielded readily to treatment. Dry Goods and Carpet Co.

ARTIST WITH THE VIOLI From the news columns of the Pasadena Daily News of Pasadena, Cal., the following write-up of Miss Hester O. Brown's visit to the Pacific coast. This beautiful ovation is but another sign of the oft-repeated assertion that "the ability of the young lady with her violin is boundless:" "The music-loving people of Pasadena will have opportunity this evening to hear one of America's leading colored artists, Miss Hester O. Brown, violinist, of Cleveland, O. "Miss Brown is a violinist of exceptional ability. She is a graduate of the conservatory of Music, Oberlin, O., and has made several successful tours of the country. "At present, as a member of the Olympian Quartette—an organization of colored women artists—she is in the employ of Cort's Lyceum, Bureau and leaves after the holidays for another extended tour through the country. "Press and musicians alike are loud in their praise of her renditions. Her technique and interpretation are wonderful. Her music springs from the depths of a tuneful heart. She plays because she needs must play. "The 10th inst., she gave a recital at the A. M. E. Auditorium, Los Angeles. Her services have been secured for a return date the 27th. "Miss Brown will be ably assisted in this recital by Miss Florence Cole, one of Los Angeles' best sopranos; Mr. Richard B. Harrison, one of the coast's best readers; also selections by local talent. "The recital to-night will be given at Kiney-Kendal hall, corner Raymond avenue and Colorado street. It is under the auspices of the choir of Friendship Baptist church." She left California on the 28th of December, 1907, and will spend a couple of days in Louisville, Ky., then on to Cleveland, O., to join her company. FThe Nashville Globe.

DEVOTIONS CONDUCTED BY REV. C. H. CLARK—REV. PRESTON TAYLOR INTRODUCED AS THE MASTER OF CEREMONIES—SPEAKERS THRILLED THE AUDIENCE WITH THEIR BRILLIANT ORATORY — MANY PROMINENT PERSONS IN THE AUDIENCE —OCCASION LONG TO BE REMEMBERED IN THIS CITY. The Emancipation celebration was observed at Mt. Olive Baptist Church on Wednesday night, January 1, 1908. The meeting was opened by devotional services, conducted by Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Prayer was offered by Dr. E. W. S. Hammond. Rev. Clark in fitting words welcomed the members of Lincoln Post No. 4, G. A. R., and citizens, and introduced Rev. Preston Taylor, the Master of Ceremonies. Rev. Taylor took charge of the meeting and in his inimitable style soon injected life into the meeting. He invited to the rostrum Dr. E. W. S. Hammond, Dean of the Theological Department of Walden University; Bishop C. H. Phillips, of the C. M. E. Church; Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church; Mr. H. A. Boyd, Assistant Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board; Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary and General Manager of the National Baptist Publishing Board; Hon. J. C. Napier, and Rev. C. H. Boone, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, the chief speakers of the evening. Mr. H. A. Boyd read the Emancipation Proclamation, after which Hon. J. C. Napier, the orator of the evening, was introduced. Mr. Napier said he had for forty years attended on the first of every January a celebration of the occasion which we were assembled to celebrate, and he considered it a high privilege to do so. The speaker at once took up the discussion of the history of Negro soldiers of the Union. He stated that the record of the Negro soldiers in the wars of the Union was one of continuous glory, and not in a single instance has one ever proven traitor to his country. These old soldiers among us remember well the battles fought around this city, and they deserve our highest honor. They are dropping out one by one, and we should honor them in life and in death. During the Spanish-American War the only city in which the black soldiers received a welcome was in Nashville, our own city. If we as civilians had done our work as well as the black soldiers we would be better off in this country to-day from North to South. You have a weapon in your hands that is second only to the war, as used on the battle field. Rev. C. H. Boone, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, spoke of the future of the Negro race. He said a man whose life had all been illustrious in the past would naturally be expected to be bright in the future. When we sum up what the Negro has done, we must admit that he has achieved great things. The speaker quoted figures to show that the Negro is making great progress. He showed that in the state of Georgia, where Negro property fell at a less per cent than that of the white man's. He paid a glowing tribute to the old soldiers. Mrs. J. C. Napier read an interesting paper, after which several of the gentlemen on the rostrum made brief remarks. COLUMBIA NOTES. The time for new resolutions and vows has come. 1907 passed away quietly.

And reading and paying for such an organ as The Nashville Globe will certainly bring to our doors a rich store of knowledge which will help mellow our talents after the noon of life has passed.
