MEHARRY'S 32ND COMMENCEMENT Exercises at Ryman Auditorium, March 31. W. T. VERNON, REGISTER OF U. S. TREASURY. ADDRESSES GRADUATES — ONE HUNDRED FIVE STUDENTS IN MEDICINE, DENTISTRY AND PHARMACY RECEIVE DIPLOMAS—AN AUDIENCE OF MORE THAN FIVE THOUSAND WITNESS PROCEEDINGS—AUDIENCE A REPRESENTATIVE ONE AND THE FAULTLESSNESS OF THE PROGRAM CALLS FORTH UNSTINTED PRAISE. On Tuesday evening, March 31, the city of Nashville witnessed the commencement exercises of the thirty-second anniversary of the graduating classes of Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical College of Walden University. These exercises were given at the Ryman Auditorium and a large audience, numbering approximately five thousand, was present. Nashville has long since enjoyed the reputation of getting together as intelligent an audience, among its Negro citizens, as can be found among any race in the United States, with equal opportunities, and Tuesday night was not an exception—to the contrary, it was the rule. There are just two great commencement days in which the whole people of Nashville turn out to see. One is the High School commencement exercises, the other is Meharry. Both are usually held in the spacious auditorium commonly known as "The Gospel Tabernacle." These departments of Walden attract as no other school in the race. They have students from nearly every country, and from many races, but all identified with the Negro, and on account of such, these exercises bring thousands of visitors each year, who come to see a son, daughter, brother, sister, relative or friend receive diplomas and start out into the professional world to battle with the medical, dental and pharmaceutical professions. The class of 1908 has a decided distinction over the former classes in that it is the largest ever sent out from this institution, increasing by one hundred and five the long list of hundreds already pointing with pride to Meharry as their Alma Mater. Some of the vistors in the city had finished from Meharry more than twenty years ago and were here for the first time since they received their diplomas and went out into the world to practice. The program showed the result of careful training. Especially is this true in the pieces rendered both from students and the musical selections. At 7:30 Prof. Berry began the processional march, which brought down the center aisle from the right corner of the auditorium, circling the stage and climbing on it with dignified tread, one hundred and five graduates. After they were seated comfortably on the stage, a chorus of voices under the direction of Miss Mamie Braden, sang "For His is the Sea," from the 95th Psalm, Mendelssohn. Then the Rt. Rev. Isaac Lane, D. D., the senior bishop of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, of Jackson, Tenn., offered prayer. A chorus with solo, "There is a River," from the 46th Psalm, by Buck, was rendered by Gertrude Lewis and Glee Club. The salutatory address, "The Aristocracy of Medicine," was delivered by O. W. Sherrill. He took up the history of the profession and by a description of the noted achievements of medical science, showed that the physician must at all times have before him a high ideal in the domain of preventatives. He said this had been one of the greatest victories of the science, and by a forcible argument showed completely that there was an aristocracy of medicine that was not waning; that it was increasing each year with all classes of professional men. The pharmaceutical valedictorian spoke on "Pharmacy as a Business and Profession." This was ably rendered by C. L. Sharp. Mr. Sharp was NASHVILLE, TENN., FR1DAY, APRIL 3, 1908. by no means slow in bringing out to his class in a forcible argument the business side of pharmacy, and the need of a careful study of this profession in a business way. This was followed by a solo, "A Toreader's Love Song" (Couchols) by E. W. Miller. Mr. Miller has long since made a reputation as a bass soloist. His piece was applauded highly and was compelled to return to an encore. "The Providence of Dentistry" by John Seward, who was the dental valedictorian, carried with it a distinction peculiarly its own. This department of the school, as heretofore, was represented by a good subject that was ably treated. The chorus of male voices, "Away! Away!" (Brackett), by the Glee Club, was next. Then the medical valedictory, "Medical Education a Public Concern," by Hiram E. Archer. Mr. Archer took time and pains to forcibly deliver his address. He covered a scope that needs the most careful consideration by professional men. It is said that he was the best speaker among the graduates. He was lustily applauded. After his address came the chorus, "The Lord of Hosts is with us," from the 46th Psalm. The principal speaker and the one who lent dignity and national prominence to the already universally known school, was Hon. W. T. Vernon, Register of the Treasury of the United States. Mr. Vernon proved, by far, to be the best orator that ever addressed a graduating class of this institution. He has a voice that is commanding, eloquent and well-trained. With ease he spoke and electrified the five thousand listeners, who took in every word, and applauded from time to time, interrupting the speaker as he would make some indelible impression upon his hearers. The address was lenghty, spicy and appropriate, and not one utterance was amiss. He spoke in part as follows: "I always count it a privilege, an opportunity greatly welcomed, when permitted to say a word to those who stand at the threshold of a career. "Men of the class of 1908, your mission is indeed lofty. To you will be afforded the opportunity of dealing with the structural side of the race, and broader than the race will be your influence, in that their destiny affects our common country and all humanity. "Then let us to the task of dealing with our problems manfully and fearlessly as become the future leaders of a confiding, struggling race. Your lives must harmonize with the dominant sentiment of this progressive age. "The tendency of our civilization is toward association on right principles, helpful co-operation, toleration and justice. "Today at birth, every child has opportunities surpassing the dreams of all past ages. The accumulated knowledge of the world through centuries grown is yours. "Civilization, an epitome of all human history, makes its onward sweep before us. Man utilizes nature's power and like a monarch commands the captured elements around him. The thunder, the lightnings, no more strike terror to his heart. They speak across seas, telling of some new advance he has made in science. "I might pause here to add that I have absolutely no sympathy with those who believe that we are to reach our fullest development elsewhere than in America. More than three centuries ago we left behind us the environment of the land from which our fathers came and to which we would naturally return should emigration obtain. "With torn hands and bleeding feet, with the weary load and heavy heart, we have gone forward on American soil to a degree truly inspiring to our friends. "Remember that the achievements of the past are an earnest of the possibilities of the future, and that no man of impartial views can honestly predict other than our final success. "Those elements of progress which have brought success despite untoward conditions are but the elements exhibited by the white race in America, which elements have given to them a civilization today, the wonder of the ages. So then I repeat to go forward in your efforts, in your labors for a trusting, confiding people, is but to give impetus to their development, eventuating into a final triumph, is but to contribute mightily to the progress of American civilization. "Then, members of the graduating class of Meharry College, go heal the sick, the halt and the blind, so that it may be said of you as it was said of Hippocrates, the great father of medicine. "His was the ambition which sought the aggrandizement of self in encompassing the happiness of others; his wished for glory, whose "throne was contemporary gratitude, and WHAT ABOUT THE OLD DEATH TRAP WHAT ABOUT THE OLD DEATH TRAP Hundreds of Little Souls in Daily Peril. CONDEMNED KNOWLES SCHOOL BUILDING A PUBLIC MENAGE. AN OUTRAGE TO COMPEL CHILDREN TO JEOPARDIZE THEIR LIVES IN SUCH A MANNER—IMPOSSIBLE TO ATTACH FIRE ESCAPES TO THIS DILAPIDATED OLD HULK—TIMBER TOO ROTTEN TO HOLD BOLTS —CONDITION APPEALS TO EVERY PARENT TO DEMAND THAT THIS BUILDING BE REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE. Last Monday night the Board of Education met in regular session, with a full membership present. It was a very busy session, and all of the members of the Board seemed to be alive to all matters before them. Considerable discussion was given a proposition by a syndicate of dentists to lecture to the children in the public schools as to the care of their teeth. The Superintendent's report was listened to very attentively. He submitted much for the consideration of the board, but that of placing fire escapes attracted the most attention. His report in part follows: "Under your instructions I have in conjunction with the Building Inspector visited all of the two and three-story public school buildings in the city and have, as you directed, proceeded with the work of making such changes as the Building Inspector ordered. A detailed report of these changes and work, and the cost of them, will be submitted when the work has been completed. "Fourteen thousand dollars is available for the enlargement of the Wharton School and I suggest that you take this matter up at once so that the work may be completed by the beginning of the fall term. "There is a piano needed on the second floor of the Cockrill School and I suggest that you authorize the purchase of a square piano at not exceeding $40." There is an old and out-of-repair square piano at the McCann School, which might be used in exchange if you authorize it. "It is at this time that it is customary for you to elect a Census Enumerator." The Executive Committee, headed by Mai. Stahlman, reported that insurance had been placed upon Ross and Murphy schools. Mr. DeWitt reported that the settlement of litigation upon certain school property had been left to the City Attorney, who had not vet made any report upon his findings in the matter. In connection with the first paragraph of Sunt. Weber's report it was estimated that the sum of $7,500 will be needed for the various improvements counting fire escapes. Following instructions given at the special meeting of the Board March 7, examination of fire escapes needed in the schools had been made, in conjunction with Building Inspector Hodge and the Chief of the Fire Department. It was recommended by Inspector Hodge, who was present, that spiral fire escapes be erected in the High School. Warner, Howard and Tarbox schools at a cost of $3,425. A motion by Dr. Lofton to the effect that the Superintendent and Building Inspector be authorized to close the contract for these escapes brought on a lengthy discussion. Mr. Lieberman was for "going slow." He said the Board should not jump into a $3,425 pronouncement without much investigation. He declared that the schools in question had stood for thirty-five or forty years without having been visited by fire, and that as in all probability the escapes could not be put up for use the present session, the matter he deferred. Mai. Stahlman replied to this by saying that fire might visit the school at any time that the escapes in question had been recommended by competent officials and that the work should be contracted for at once. After general discussion the contracts were authorized. Messrs. Hill and Lieberman voting against the motion. The matter touched upon in the second paragraph of the Superintendent's report was referred to the Executive Committee with power to act. Mr. Lieberman again interposing objections. The third paragraph was taken up and the Superintendent authorized to arrange for the improvement mentioned. On motion of Mr. Akers, a bill is to be started in the City Council providing for the appropriation needed for the erection of fire escapes. Since the sad accident that happened in Cleveland, Ohio, a few weeks ago the schools in every hamlet throughout this broad land have been investigated as to the means of escape in case of fire. The officials of Nashville have not been asleep along this line, and Maj. Stahlman voiced the sentiment of every thinking citizen in this city when he stated that a fire is likely to happen at any time. There is one fact, however, that the whole Board seems to have overlooked, and that is this, a building that belongs to the city and is condemned by the city building inspector is liable to fall at any time. A few weeks ago one of our citizens, who is president of one of the largest banks in the South, was threatened with a lawsuit by the city officials because he had not torn down a building that had been condemned. This was a small brick building, and while it may have been in bad condition was not occupied daily, as is the old deathtrap on Grant street, known as Knowles School. Several hundred children are housed in this building five days in every week, and if a fire should break out it would be almost miraculous if ten of these children escaped unhurt. And yet it stands—the lives of these children are put in jeopardy every day they stay in this building. But the board has not, as yet, seen fit to recommend that a new and modern building be erected to replace this one. A number of speculators could keep them until midnight in discussing a free (?) offer to instruct the children in dentistry, but the hundred of helpless children, who are housed in a building unfit to house fodder, five days every week could not receive any consideration whatever. The Negroes are very much wrought up over this matter, and several have said that they would rather put their children in the pay schools than to have them daily in danger of being crushed to death like so many rats. They know they pay taxes for the support of schools, but that does not seem to have any weight with the powers that be. But they are still hoping that they will not be compelled to take their children out of the public school on account of the negligence on the part of the Board of Education. They believe that these men will eventually awaken to a sense of duty and recommend that a new school-house be built to replace old "Death-Trap" Knowles School. BLIND SCHOOL CONCERT. Sunday a party of students from the Blind School, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Myers, Mrs. Lowe, the Principal, and Mr. J. H. Crawley, went down to Hendersonville, Tenn., and gave a splendid sacred concert at the beautiful new stone church, of which Mr. Shinn, of Fisk University, is the pastor. Following is the program: Jubilee Song—"Tell all the world. John." Scripture Reading, May Sue Dickerson. Ouartette—"Over the stars there is rest." Jubilee Song—"Were you there?" Remarks—Mr. Mvers. Jubilee Song—"Swing low sweet chariot." "Good Night"—By the little ones. This was the conclusion of a series of concerts planned and given for the friends and patrons of the Institution, to awaken and create anew an interest in the work which Principal Lowe and her corps of teachers are so earnestly striving to carry on and build up for humanity and especially the Negro race. The school is supported by the State, and those whose sight is impaired to the extent that they cannot attend a "seeing" school are eligible to matriculation, provided they are between the ages of five and twenty-one. It is hoped that much good will follow these efforts and that more children will be sent to the institution next year. REMOVAL OF REMAINS; The remains of Edward Ewing will be removed from the vault on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock and placed in the family lot at Greenwood. Services will be in charge of the Knights of Pythias. No.13. THE FIGHTING TWENTY-FOURTH From Philippine Islands to Buffalo, N. Y. ENTHUSIASTIG RECEPTION TO UNGLE SAM'S BRAVES. CITY IN HOLIDAY ATTIRE SCHOOLS CLOSE FOR OCCASION —STREETS THRONGED BY MULTITUDES OF SPECTATORS —BUFFALONIANS FAIRLY WILD OVER THE EXCELLENT BAND CONNECTED WITH THE REGIMENT—EIGHT HUNDRED STALWART MEN WIN APPLAUSE FOR THEIR FINE MARCHING REVIEW BY MAYOR. Special to The Nashville Globe. Buffalo, New York, March 24.—The "fighting Twenty-fourth" is now in Buffalo. To the strains of music from the best band in the United States army, with possibly the exception of the one stationed at West Point, eight hundred of Uncle Sam's bravest soldiers marched through the streets of Buffalo to-day, coming direct from the scene of a mighty conflict in the far East, the Philippine Island, where they have seen two hard years' service and where they put a stop to the disturbing elements of that Archipelago. They came by the way of the Pacific Ocean and entered the United States at San Francisco, the Golden Gate City, and were transferred across the continent in three sections of a special train. So this morning, for the first time since the mighty struggle between the North and South, the Civil War, the Negro soldiers paraded the streets of Buffalo. This was made possible by an urgent request sent up to the War Department from thousands of Buffalonians, who appealed to the department to allow these men, fighting terrors to the man, to spend a day in the city by the Falls of the Niagara. Finally the request was granted. The permission given and the climax was reached when the parade started from Exchange and Michigan streets at 11:10 this morning. The starting point was thronged with thousands of onlookers. A platoon of mounted police cleared the way under the direction of Inspector John Martin. Maj. Taggart and the regimental officers, mounted, followed. The regimental band headed the battalions, playing martial airs. Then came the lithe, stalwart Negro troops, whose names are still a word of dread among the Pulujanes of Leyte, Samar and Cebu. Never did so many gigantic men parade in Buffalo in any one military organization. Their appearance corroborated the statement of army officers that the Negro troops were more dreaded than any other soldiers of the United States in the Philippines as well as in Cuba or even in these United States by reason of their tiger-like ferocity in the battle-line. The record of the regiment, with only one soldier killed and one wounded in hand-to-hand fighting in a score of battlefields in the Islands tells the whole story of their puissance. Main street has not been thronged so mightily since Old Home Week as it was when the 24th went by. Enthusiasm aroused by the martial appearance of the men in olive drab and khaki, with their short Springfield rifles and murderous looking side arms, burst out in constant rounds of applause. Every man in line had a tin metal case attached to his cartridge belt behind containing appliances for first aid to the injured. On they marched with firm step and soldierly bearing, braving the cold weather, but their hearts were made warm by the enthusiastic welcome they received on all sides, never faltering, never complaining. The parade went up Main street to Church, to Franklin, where Mayor Adam reviewed the soldiers from the curb in front of the City Hall. Others who watched the regiment pass were City Clerk Balliett, County Treasurer Fix, County Clerk Price, Police Commissioners Zeller and Doherty. "A fine body of men," said His Honor, as the first battalion of the regiment passed in front of him. Mayor Those Clothes!

From there the line swung up Eagle street to Main, to North street, to Delaware avenue. The lines were perfect. Despite their wearying experience in crossing the continent, the rank and file and the officers of the 24th were as trim and snappy in their step as a bunch of West Pointers fresh from classrooms. this city ing talk standpoil After elegant satisfact Benev the weas able one of I They ow After passing in review of thousands of Buffalonians, who crowded the streets along the line of march to welcome them, the members of the 24th Infantry marched back to the railroad yards, where they entrained, preparatory to their journey to their respective garrisons. The three battalions arrived at their trains at 12:30 o'clock, tired and hungry, but proud of the reception accorded them by the residents of the city. It was a hard march of the men, who have been cooped up in railway cars for the past six days. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. Mr. G. E. Washington, the efficient teacher of mathematics in this school, acted as principal of the Hadley School Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Mr. E. W. Benton, the principal of Hadley, was called out of the city on account of the death of his cousin, and Mr. Washington was transferred temporarily to fill the vacancy. Mr. Sylvester White, of the Senior College Class of Fisk University, taught the mathematics in the High School the two days Mr. Washington was away. The repairing ordered to be done by the City Superintendent and Building Inspector Hodge, in order to make this building safer in case of fire has been completed. Both the front and rear doors now open outward. The large fancy post which stood at the bottom of the staircase has been removed and a small circular platform with a smaller post put in its stead. This improvement makes it easier for children to turn when reaching the last step of the stairs and the danger of congestion at this point is avoided. The contest for the best attendance between the 8-A and 8-B grades under the leadership of Misses Bryant and Pinkard resulted in a tie last week. Each teacher had only three absences for the entire week. The percentage of attendance, however, would be a little better for Miss Pinkard's class, as she has 66 pupils, while Miss Bryant has 55. If you take the average per cent of attendance, however, for the entire number of weeks since this contest started, Miss Bryant's pupils show a better record. A larger number of visitors called at this school this week than at any time this school year. Prof. S. H. Hardy, principal of a school near Columbia, Tenn., was among the number. Prof. Hardy has been in the school business a long time and knows a good school when he sees it. He visited all the class-rooms and the Manual Training Department and expressed himself as being amply repaid for his visit by the good work that he saw. He was unstinted in his praise and said that Pearl was one of the best managed schools in the country and the work was just as thorough. Dr. M. E. Coleman and Mrs. C. A. Kelly of Clarksville, visited the school Tuesday. Mrs. Kelly is a graduate of this school in the class of 1891. She and Dr. Coleman spent half a day in listening to the recitations. She noted improvement in the discipline and instruction of the school since her student-days. The members of the Graduating Class of Meharry did not forget this school in their rounds on Monday. The following visited this school and gave the principal the names of the cities opposite their names, where they will soon locate to begin the practice of their profession: I. H. King, East St. Louis; E. A. King, Louisville; Z. G. Pusey, London, England; F. G. Hickman, Breese, Ill.; J. Pat. Hickman, E. St. Louis; W. J. Astrapp, Vicksburg, Miss.; T. C. McPhane, Bastrop, Texas; Jas. H. Rachels, Ft. Worth, Texas; J. H. Connell, Jr., Jackson, Tenn.; Ellie Mattison, Conway, Ark. BENEVOLENT SOCIETY NO. 81 INSTALLS OFFICERS. On last Monday night the Benevolent Society No. 81 celebrated their annual installation of officers at their hall in Trimble Bottom, South Nashville. This is an occasion on which all of the members and friends of the Order turn out to do honor to a worthy people. On Monday night the hall was packed to its utmost capacity. The installation services were very impressive. Several prominent visitors were present, among whom were Rev. Preston Taylor, Mr. A. N. Johnson and Mr. D. A. Hart. These gentlemen all made short talks that enlivened the occasion. Rev. Preston Taylor spoke in the highest terms of the Benevolent Orders, and stated that he considered them as good as any bank in Nashville in business transactions. Mr. A. N. Johnson, who has only recently embarked in the undertaking business in this city, made a short and interesting talk. Mr. Hart spoke from the standpoint of a newspaper man. After the exercises were over an elegant repast was served to the full satisfaction of all present. Benevolent Order No. $1 is one of the wealthiest lodges in the city, and was able recently to make a loan to one of her sister lodges of $1,000. They own a fine hall that is free of debt and have a good bank account. VERNON-WASHINGTON BANQUET. Two of the most noted and no doubt the best known men before the public to-day were the recipients of Nashville's hospitality Wednesday afternoon. It was an outburst of the pent-up appreciation with which these two men are so highly honored in this educational and historic city, where year after year men of great prominence come in consultation and on business; in this city where many of the denominations have the fountainhead of their organic existence, and where thousands of students come every year to receive higher education. The testimonial that is particularly referred to is the banquet that was rendered Dr. Booker T. Washington, often styled "The Wizard of Tuskegee," a man known on every continent and loved by Nashville people. The second was William Tecumseh Vernon, of Kansas, who is filling with such dignity and proficiency the position of Register of Treasury of the United States. It was Mr. Vernon's first visit since his appointment to office, but it was by no means the first visit of Mr. Washington. The banquet was served in the Spa Cafe on Cedar street. Round the festal board were the following distinguished guests: Mr. J. C. Napier was toastmaster for the occasion and the first speaker was Prof. B. T. Washington. Dr. C. V. Roman responded to the toast "Our Guest;" Dr. R. F. Boyd, "Our Hospitals;" J. W. Grant, "Our Lawyers;" R. H. Boyd, "Our Publishing Houses;" C. H. Phillips, "Our Bishops;" Wm. A. Crosthwait, "America;" W. D. Chappelle, "The People;" E. B. Jefferson, "Our Dentists;" A. N. Johnson, "Nashville;" closing remarks by W. T. Vernon. The list of guests was Booker T. Washington, Sr.; Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala.; W. T. Vernon, Register of the United States Treasury, Washington, D. C.; Booker T. Washington, Jr., J. C. Napier, C. H. Phillips, Sr., R. H. Boyd, A. N. Johnson, S. Jefferson, Clarksville, Tenn.; Henry Allen Boyd, D. A. Hart, Sr., G. B. Taylor, W. M. McGavock, C. H. Phillips, Jr., Geo. Gary, T. Clay Moore, S. W.

Ewing. The visitors were entertained all the morning by Dr. R. F. Boyd, who put at their disposal his magnificent 1907 model white steamer automobile, who in company with W. D. Chappelle, R. H. Boyd, W. T. Vernon and Booker T. Washington, visited Fisk University on Wednesday morning. Dr. Merrill had arranged a special program and all the departments of the university gathered in the Memorial Chapel to listen to an able, practical address by Prof. Washington, followed by one equally as good from W. T. Vernon. Special music was rendered by the Glee Club and a part of the Mozart Society. After the services the party, excepting Mr. Washington, was driven through North Nashville and down to the National Baptist Publishing House, where another special program had been prepared by the employees through the request of Dr. R. H. Bovd for the entertaining of W. T. Vernon. Register of the Register of the Treasury. These two great Negro leaders, representing the whole Negro population through two great denominations, kept Nashville spellbound Tuesday and Wednesday. The exodus of both occurred about the same time, as each left on the evening train going in opposite directions. Mr. Washington's special visit to Nashville was for the purpose of visiting his son, Booker T. Jr., who is a student in Fisk University. ST. ELI BAPTIST CHURCH.

LILY WHITES. If the reports of daily newspapers are to be relied upon, the Sanders-Hale-Evans Convention held in our city last week was more or less a lily-white affair. This faction, as is well known, is composed in the main of federal office-holders and "referees," and was out-generated by the Oliver faction last Wednesday. According to the press reports, the colored brother was shown scant courtesy during the proceedings. It is said that the Hon. H. Clay Evans, who was presiding at the Thursday session repeatedly refused to recognize one of the Negro delegates, and when the delegate became insistent told him point blank that he "would not hear him for one minute." It is further alleged by the daily press that Mr. Hiram Tyree, a member of the Board of Councilmen of Chattanooga, was defeated as an alternate to the Chicago Convention when it became known that he was a Negro. Many of the delegates voted for Mr. Tyree and it appeared that he had sufficient votes to elect him, but when it became noised that he is a Negro, a sufficient number of delegates changed their votes to defeat him. We are loath to believe that the Sanders-Hale-Evans-Wills-Brock faction stands for lily-whitism. It is true that some of those in Tennessee who are most vociferous in their demand that Taft receive the votes of the delegates from this state are out and out Lily whites as mentioned in these columns last week. Likewise, it is true that in the last gubernatorial election when the republicans had the best chance to elect the head of their ticket since the memorable Evans-Turney contest, no effort was made to get Negroes to vote for the ticket. In fact, in the last state contest it appeared as if the republicans were trying to get rid of the brother in black. The evidence savors strongly of lily-whitism, and if it is proven that the Sanders-Hale-Evans-Wills-Brock faction is trying to build up a lily white party, they will probably receive scant courtesy before the National Republican Committee. HEFLIN. Representative Heflin, of Alabama, must have his eyes upon a seat in the United States Senate. His intemperate speeches upon the Negro question and his silly bill for a "Jim crow" car law in the District of Columbia would indicate such. His campaign, though, has so preyed upon his mind that he has evolved from a Representative THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. APRIL 3. 1908 in Congress to a self-appointed position of special policeman to enforce morality upon street cars. Last Friday night, acting upon his own estimate of his calling, Mr. Heflin proceeded to take charge of a street car in Washington and ejected some colored men who, it is claimed, unawares that Alabama has a prohibition law, were partaking of the fluid which is known in some sections of this states as the "oil of joy." Finding the men of a different opinion as to their rights to enjoy their potation, Mr. Heflin, in the true style of the average policeman, pulled his gun and "fired at the ground." The first shot struck a white man in the leg while the second struck one of the colored men in the head. Mr. Heflin has placed a correct estimate upon himself. He ought to be a policeman, even though his professional rantings would tend to show that he has an eye on the Senate. But before he joins the police force of any respectable city like Nashville, he must revamp his tale about shooting towards the ground and hitting a man's head. The accepted theory in these parts is that a policeman always shoots in the air at a man who is advancing upon him,—even when the ball enters the back of the victim. However, if Heflin will resign he can get on the force and be taught how to shoot in the air. Such trifling deviations from the accepted rule will easily be forgiven! MEHARRY. If each of the Meharry brothers, whose donations made possible the school bearing their name, could have been present last Tuesday night, when one of the largest classes in the history of the institution received diplomas, each could say with truth that he had sown seed which are bringing a bountiful harvest. These beneficent brothers, to whom the whole race is due homage, have sown wisely and well as the long list of successful practitioners throughout the country bear witness. The Meharry brothers are due and will receive praise for generations to come for their magnanimous bequest to this school. But the hero, the colossus, the one overshadowing personality of the exercises this week—referring to those connected with the school—is that man who, from its very inception, has devoted his time, his talents, his all to make it the success that it is—Dr. George W. Hubbard, Dean of the College. Dr. Hubbard came to Nashville, almost providentially it would seem, before the Civil War was over, with the expressed purpose of going further South to aid in the work among the Freedmen. But circumstances over which he had no control compelled him to settle in Nashville and from that time to the present he has continued in his labor of love toward the uplifting of our race. Unostentatious, his name is not blazoned forth as one of the world's greatest men, but his self-sacrificing spirit, his love for a lowly race, his devotion to the right, has won for him the love of the race that is more enduring than the plaudits of the world, the monuments of bronze and stone—a love that has caused thousands unconsciously to pay homage to him, and generations unborn will rise up and call him blessed. As we have had occasion to say heretofore, long may this man of God be spared us and long may his strength be vouchsafed to him to continue in the work which has made the names Meharry and Hubbard synonymous. The difference between a "mob" convention and a "committee named Convention" is about the same as the difference between the chicken thief and the "malefactors of great wealth." It is harder to convict the rouges who have a semblance of legality to their acts, though sometimes the forces of righteousness, the square dealers, who believe in fair play, led by a Roosevelt or the like of him, break down the legal technicalities and administer even-handed justice. CONCERT AT SPRUCE STREET BAPTIST CURCH. On Wednesday night, April 8, 1908, there will appear at the Sprüce Baptist Church in a grand concert, two of the best artists that our race has yet produced. Mr. Clarence Cameron White, the violinist, comes from Washington, D. C. He was a success as a music teacher in the Washington Public Schools, and was at the head of the violin department of the Washington Conservatory. The soprano, Miss Elsie Viola Taylor, of Hartford, Conn., is not so well known as some other artists. Her reputation is now being made. She has recently sung the solo parts to some of the standard oratorios and cantatas, much to the satisfaction of her hearers. Endowed with a large, rich voice, a pleasing personality, her thorough training makes her already one of the most successful singers of our race. Miss Taylor has appeared before very few audiences in the South, but has never failed to please. MONITOR CHORUS. The Monitor Chorus voices will render the following program April 14, at the residence of Mr. W. J. Blanton: Chorus .....Monitor Chorus Invocation ......

Sloan Solo .....Prof. Fowler Recitation .....Mr. W. J. Blanton Duet ...... Mrs. L. Shields and Mr. Polk Quartette .....Selected Admission free MR. M. PORTER IN THE CITY. Mr. M. Porter, of Newport, Tenn., was in the city last week. He is the leading sculptor of East Tennessee, having for years conducted a large establishment designing and shipping stones to all parts of the state. Mr. Porter in talking to a Globe representative related a story that is very interesting. He said, "Yes, I have been in the business for over twenty-five years." On being asked if his help were all colored he drew himself up and informed the representative that he employed white help exclusively. On being asked why this was so, he stated that he had found it impossible to get Negro boys to stick to the work. He said, "Herein lies the problem we will have to solve. We must teach our people the value of having their children learn to do skilled labor." That there is much truth in Mr. Porter's statements along this line goes without saying. WEDDINGS. Black—Anthony. On Thursday night of last week, at the residence of Mrs. Humphrey, Eighth avenue, North, Mr. William Black and Miss Sarah Anthony were united in marriage. Rev. David Venable, of East Nashville, performed the ceremony. Mrs. Wright was the bridesmaid and Mr. R. Jordan the best man. The bride was attired in white silk.

D. W. Settles at the home of the bride's parents Mr. and Mrs. Bright, 816 Tenth avenue, South. The bride wore a beautiful white silk.

Mrs. Harlan at the time she was taken ill, was stopping with her brother, Bish- op Tyree. She took to her bed ‘Thurs- day of last week and continued to grow worse hourly. On Sunday morn- ing Dr. Wilson was called and after a careful examination he decided that an operation was inevitable.

It was announced some weeks ago in the Globe that the Cuban Giants would play in this city in the month of May, but Manager J. B. Boyd received a letter dated March 27, as follows: Dument, N. J., March 27, 1908.—Mr. J. B. Boyd: Dear Sir—As quite a few player who have received advances from other clubs, and we cannot get others that are as good to fill their places, we have decided to cancel all games for Cuban Giants rather than send out an inferior team on the road. Hope this late notice will not cause you any inconvenience. I am; Yours truly, (Signed) E. B. LAMAR, Jr. The above news will, no doubt, be received with regret by the fans here and in surrounding towns, some of whom had already planked down a bet. The secretary of the N. A. A. is corresponding with three other teams equally as strong. With the Fists: Jack Arthur Johnson has concluded that he doesn't want to go England to meet Tommy Burns on a proposition by which he is to receive $5,000, win, lose or draw. He had rather stay here and meet Jim Barry. The two have been matched at Milwaukee on April 10. They are to go ten rounds and it is a sure thing that Johnson can send Barry to the floor for the count in ten rounds. My information is that the Chicago boy has shown steady improvement of late and expects to give a good account of himself when he meets Johnson. Joe Gans is likely to replenish the harness cask" with plenty of good, fresh bacon before long. He is to fight Boer Umholz on April 7, while Owen Moran is anxious to get a fight with the world's champion. There are others who are willing to take a beating for the loser's end of the purse, and until Gans meets his master, as he will one of these days, he is not likely to want ready money whenever he cares to take a roll. * * * Owing to the shortness of money the past winter, the local teams are slow, very slow, to get into action, but when they get to going they will be heard from. Samuel McVey, an American Negro, who is following Tommy Burns, is now receiving the glad mits of the French for knocking the block off an Englishman. Burns has not had time to meet McVey yet, but Sam says he will go after Burns until he comes out and says, "I will not fight you, Mr. Samuel McVey." *** Mr. Fred J. Ewing, formerly third baseman of the National Baptist team, is at present holding down third for the strong Tuskegee team. All good teams have to get their main-stays from Nashville, the City of Rocks. Since the Texas League is a reality, what is the matter with a Tennessee league?

The dining-room presented a beautiful appearance with its decorations of ferns and cut flowers. The beauty of the decorations was largely enhanced by a profusion of Walden colors, crimson and black. This color-scheme was carried out in the table centerpiece, a square of Battenberg over red worked with cherries. At six o'clock from a table laden with the season's delicacies a tempting menu consisting of five courses was served. After dinner the young ladies of the party enjoyed an automobile ride over the city in Dr. R. F. Boyd's car. Invited to partake of Mr. and Mrs. Shelby's hospitality were Bishop and Mrs. C. H.
