THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. III. PYTHIANS CAP- TURE FRANKLIN Anniversary Exercises of Mercury Lodge. NOTABLE DISCOURSE BY REV. SUTTON E. GRIGGS. THE TWO COMPANIES OF UNIFORM RANK FROM NASHVILLE MAKE A FINE SHOWING LARGE NUMBER OF VISITORS PRESENT — GRAND WORTHY COUNSELLOR OF CALANTHE ATTRACTS ATTENTION—LARGE COLLECTION FOR NEW HALL. Franklin, April 28.—The tri-colored badges of the Knights of Pythias were so much in evidence in this city last Sunday as to almost say that Franklin belonged to the Pythians. The first train in from Nashville brought a large delegation of the Order from the Capital City and the second train reinforced twofold the already large representation. Upon the arrival in the city of the visiting Knights they were met by a local committee and escorted to the Castle Hall of Mercury Lodge where each visitor was assigned to a home or provision was made whereby he would be amply provided for in the matter of securing dinner. A big barbecue was served at the hall at noon and many of the visitors joined in partaking of the feast. At two o'clock, the Knights assembled in a line in front of the Castle Hall and from thence proceeded to Shorter Chapel, where the anniversary exercises were to be held. The procession was headed by Volunteer Company, Number 5, Uniform Rank, under the command of Capt. R. E. Gee. Following this company came East Nashville, Company No. 8, under the command of Capt. J. T. Shelby. Then followed the Knights of Mercury Lodge No. 18, and the visiting Knights at the rear of the column being Grand Worthy Counsellor, Dr. R. F. Boyd, who was accompanied in his automobile by Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, the principal speaker of the occasion; J. Thomas Turner, Grand Attorney of the Knights of Pythias, and several other visitors. As the column wended its way through the principal streets, the excellent appearance of the Knights, the clock-like movements of the Uniform Rank, the general good order of the whole affair attracted the attention of every passerby. The maneuvers of the two companies, executed with the precision of regular soldiers, attracted the especial attention of the residents and many were the encomiums of praise showered upon Captains Gee and Shelly for the excellent discipline maintained. The Shorter Chapel A. M. E. Church, where the exercises were held, was soon crowded beyond a point of comfort by the anxious citizens and visiting friends. But every effort was made to make all comfortable. Seated upon the rostrum were the following well known Knights: Dr. R. F. Boyd, Supreme Medical Registrar, Grand Worthy Counsellor; J. Thomas Turner, Grand Attorney; Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, W. F. Reynolds, Master of Ceremonies; Rev. Tyree White, Rev. Greggs, J. O. Battle, Editor of The Globe; J. P. Porter, J. W. Blaine, Wm. Royster, John Cunningham, A. M. Cockrill and others. The preliminary program was participated in by Rev. White, J. P. Campbell, John Cunningham, the "father" of Mercury Lodge; J. Thos. Turner and Mrs. Maria Redick. Between each of the numbers above mentioned the choir, under the direction of Mrs. Washington, discoursed pleasing muics. The solo of Miss Arzella Ellis received especial approbation. Rev. Sutton E. Griggs was in one of his happiest moods and it is doubtful if ever he has spoken to a more appreciative audience. At times throughout his discourse he was interrupted by the applause which came almost spontaneously. He chose as his text, Philippian 8:4, and for the space of an hour held the rapt attention of every one present as he expounded the virtues to be derived from a true practice of Pythianism. With apt figures NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1908. R. F. BOYD, M. D., Grand Worthy Counsellor of the Court of Calanthe and Supreme Medical Registrar of the Knights of Pythias. he illustrated how the Order through co-operation can be of great service to the race, how the lesson of friendship taught in the story of Damon and Pythias should be one of the guiding principles in causing the members of the Order to do God's work. Rev. Mr. Griggs' discourse was undoubtedly one of the strongest that has ever been delivered before a congregation of Pythians in this section of the state. Grand Worthy Counsellor, Dr. R. F. Boyd, was present to represent the interests of Calanthes and right well did he do so. One of the principal objects of holding the anniversary exercises on the day they were held was to enlist the support of the citizens and visitors in the rally which was to raise money to help pay for the new hall which Mercury Lodge has purchased. Almost every one present responded liberally to the collection which was lifted immediately following the sermon of Rev. Griggs. The anniversary services redound much to the honor of the Knights of Franklin and much credit was bestowed upon Knights Ewing, Reynolds, Williams, Neely, Pointer and others, who had charge of the arrangements. BENEVOLENT SOCIETIES IN TENNESSEE IN PROSPEROUS CONDITION. Negroes the country over are conceded to be loyal to secret organizations. They have a devotion for societies and lodges that is not excelled by any people in the world. There are scores of different kinds of lodges in this state, and with few exceptions they are all doing a great work in the interest of humanity. True some of them spend too much energy toward pomp and splendor, but thousands of people are being aided daily by these organizations. There are no lodges in the state that are doing more for their members than the societies of the Delegated Assembly of Benevolent Orders. They are what might be aptly called doers. They are not so very showy, but they get results. Their motto seems to be the most good to the most people. The Delegated Assembly of Tennessee, of which Mrs. Rosa L. Brown, of this city, is Secretary, is composed of between seventy-five and one hundred orders. They constitute a membership of several thousand, and the secretary states that from all parts of the state the reports show marked progress. No Benevolent Order is classed among the progressive that is renting a hall to meet in, and most of them own valuable property. At the last state meeting held in Chattanooga they voted to establish an orphanage. Mr. E. E. Gibson, the popular wagon manufacturer of Nashville, is Chairman of the Orphanage Committee, and he stated recently to a Globe representative that he hoped to be able to report something tangible at the next state meeting in Murfreesboro in August. The citizens of Nashville are bidding for the establishment of the orphanage near here, as this is a central place, and offers many advantages for such an institution. REV. PRESTON TAYLOR CHILDREN'S BEST FRIEND. BUSINESS MEN OF CITY DONATE PRIZES—INTENSE EXCITEMENT AMONG THE LITTLE FOLKS— EUGENE HATCHER FINDS GOLD EGG AND WINS FIRST PRIZE - SECOND PRIZE WON BY MARGARET HYNES — SIXTY-EIGHT OTHER PRIZES AWARDED. The postponed Easter egg hunt was observed at Greenwood Park last Saturday evening, April 25. The weather man had received indications that the weather would be perfect, notwithstanding the heavy rain on Friday. Saturday presented an ideal day for out-of-door pleasure, and Greenwood Park presented a picture of beauty with its hills and its improved amusements. The scores of children that gathered at the park from all parts of the city spent an enjoyable afternoon. Long before 2 o'clock large crowds had gathered and were spending their time on the merry-go-round, throwing at Maud, shooting and other innocent amusements that are to be found at this popular summer resort. At 2 o'clock the children were gathered in the main auditorium and given full instructions concerning the rules governing the egg hunt. These instructions were given by Rev. Preston Taylor, who had been assisted in depositing the eggs by Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Armstrong and Miss Watkins. The children could hardly restrain from breaking out of the two hundred eggs that had been deposited in crevices under trees, bushes, rocks and in the long grass, each egg bearing the imprint of Greenwood Park, and seventy containing numbers, each number drawing a prize, all of which had been donated by friends and business men of the city. The interest was centered in the gold egg, for which a prize of $5.00 in gold had been offered by the management of the park to the finder. This prize was captured by Eugene Hatcher. The next was a silver egg, for which a prize of $3.00 was offered, and little Margaret Hynes was the lucky one. The purple egg drew a $1.00 prize, which went to Morris Hurt. The other children drawing prizes were as follows: No. 1, Clara Hightower; 2 and 3, Bessie Travis; 4, Annie Gray; 5, Edward Hall; 6, Clara Hightower; 14 and 7, Clara Campbell; 8, Holly Davis; 9, Jessie Patton; 10, Howard W.

After the hunt, which lasted for about one hour and a half, the tired children returned and all were given a free ride on the merry-go-round, after which some others took themselves to shady retreats that are to be found in the park until the shade of the evening bade them retura to their homes. FIRE DESTROYS MORRISON STREET HOUSE. The residence of Mrs. Clara Jackson, at 915 Morrison street, was almost completely destroyed by fire late Wednesday afternoon. The fire, it is thought, was caused by a spark from the chimney of Mrs. Vaughn's house next door, and owing to the high wind which was blowing at the time, the building was soon a seething mass of flames. An alarm turned in from Grant and Twelfth avenue, North, brought the Jefferson street fire company to the scene and by heroic effort the flames were soon under control. The house to the north of the Jackson residence, which was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Vaughn, and the double tenement to the south, which was occupied by white families, were slightly damaged by the fire, but sustained a greater loss on account of the water. Mrs. Jackson, who is a widow, saved most of her furniture on one floor of the building, but lost almost everything on the other floor. It was not known by the neighbors assembled at the fire whether or not insurance was carried on the burned house or its contents. PILGRIM TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES. The Easter services of Pilgrim Baptist Church were excellent and much credit is to be given to the choir which rendered such beautiful music. Rev. R. D. Black preached a special sermon to the Sunday School. The Superintendent, D. S. M. Williams presented each scholar with an egg which had a scripture picture that was hand painted by the organist. Mrs. Susie Howard Hall. CEDAR HILL NOTES. Mr. F. C. Sisney left Monday for Louisville to be present at the running of the Kentucky derby. He will be met by his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. George W. Obie, and Mr. William Gibson, of Chicago. While in Louisville they will be the guests of the Misses Nortons. Mr. and Mrs. Obie will not visit Nashville at present, as they had anticipated. ANOTHER LETTER OF INQUIRY. The Globe is in receipt of a letter written at Caster, Miss., in which the writer asks that a notice be put in the paper to assist in finding lost relatives. The writer is Mr. Toney Black, who is inquiring for his two sisters and mother. The sisters were named Elvie Wade and Marie Wade. They used to live in Rutherford County. They were owned by Langford Black. He states that he left Tennessee about 1869, and that his mother's name was Malinda Palmer. Any information leading to the whereabouts of the three persons above described will be sent to Tony Black at Caster, Miss. No.17. DELEGATES OFF FOR NORFOLK Enthusiastic Mass Meeting at St. Paul Church. DR. CHAPPELLE ENDORSED FOR THE BISHOPRIC. ROUSING SPEECHES MADE CONCERNING THE STAND TAKEN BY PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT IN RAILROAD DISCRIMINATION LEAGUE ORGANIZED TO AID IN PROSECUTION OF SUITS THAT MAY BE BROUGHT BY NEGROES AGAINST COMMON CARRIERS. On Thursday evening at 5:20 the delegates to the General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, left over the Illinois Central Railroad for Norfolk, Va., where the sessions will be held. The party consisted of all the delegates in and near Nashville. Several of the delegates were accompanied by their families and others who are going to attend the meeting, swelled the party to between thirty and forty. They will go over the Illinois Central to Louisville and from there will travel by way of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad, arriving on Norfolk Saturday morning, May 2. The delegates and the citizens of Nashville held a mass meeting at St. Paul A. M. E. Church on Tuesday night. A special feature of this was the report of a committee appointed to wait upon the Board of Trade of this city and solicit their co-operation in a petition to the General Conference setting forth the many claims of Nashville to the proposed consolidated publishing interests of the A. M. E. Church. The committee reported that they were cordially received by the officers of the Board of Trade, and that that organization had appointed a committee to act in conjunction with the committee appointed at the meeting held on Wednesday night, April 22. It was also stated that these two committees were preparing an elaborate document to present to the General Conference. The Board of Trade has asked Hon. J. C. Napier to bear their special invitation to the Conference, and are urging him to try to arrange his business so that he can go in behalf of the Board of Trade and the citizens of Nashville. No one could have been selected who will meet the general approval of the people of this city more than Mr. Napier. He is a representative citizen and a successful business man. Mr. Napier has shown great interest in this matter, and will go to represent the Board of Trade and the citizens unless some unforeseen hindrance comes in his way. The meeting also passed strong resolutions endorsing Dr. W. D. Chappelle for the high honor of Bishop. He is the choice of every delegate from Tennessee and the citizens as a whole are anxious to see him honored with a seat on the bench of Bishops in his church. Enthusiastic speeches were made in regard to the recent actions taken by the Interstate Commerce Commission. A Protective League was organized with the following as temporary officers: Dr. W. D. Chappelle, Chairman; Mr. D. A. Hart, Vice Chairman; Rev. C. H. Boone, Secretary; Mr. C. S. Randals, Treasurer. C. H. Boone, M. L. Jackson, Wm. Flagg, Mrs. M. A. Sanders, Miss M. N. Wimms were appointed a committee on By-laws and Constitution. HICCOUGH EASILY STOPPED. (From the Family Doctor.) This is a most distressing and obstinate complaint to those in whom it occurs. We do not refer, of course, to the hiccough attendant upon great prostration of the system, but to those instances (very frequent, indeed) of simple spasmodic condition of stomach and esophagus, which assail the individual without any other symptom of disease, and in the treatment of which anti-spasmodies prove inert. Relief can be obtained by directing the patient to hold the arms straight above the head and to keep inspiring as long as feasible, so as to retain the air in the lungs for as long a period as possible. GEO. W. McKISSACK, Contractor, Builder and Practical Bricklayer He has always been able to please the homefolks. He has contracted for and erected some of the most substantial buildings in the city.

Birmingham, Ala., April 29.—The Alabama Republican State Convention of the anti-administration faction of the party was held in Birmingham today with practically every county in the State represented. The surprise of the convention was the affiliation of National Committeeman Charles H. Scott, of Montgomery, with this faction of the party. Mr. Scott was elected Permanent Chairman of the convention, and made a ringing speech calling for "an independent Republican party in Alabama untrammeled by the influences of Federal officeholders." The sessions appeared to be harmonious, the only ripple being created when there was an attempt on the part of the negro delegates to make H. V. Cashin, of Decatur, one of the best known negroes in the State, Temporary Chairman. The colored delegates, however, were given places on all of the committees. The convention indorsed the Congressional District delegates which have been chosen to the National Convention where the Congressional Conventions recognized the legality of the Davidson wing of the party. Candidates for all State offices to be filled at the November election were named. Four delegates-at-large to the National Convention at Chicago were chosen, as follows: Judge Asa E. Stratton, of Clanton; Charles D. Alexander, of Attalla; W. R. Pettiford (colored), of Birmingham; Maj. Charles Allison, of Birmingham. The report of the Resolutions Committee indorses the National Republican administration, is entirely non-committal as to candidates for the Presidential nomination, and takes a pronounced stand against the anti-corporation activities of the Democratic party in Alabama. The administration wing of the party, headed by J. O. Thompson, of Birmingham, will hold its convention in Birmingham next Wednesday. Jackson, Miss., April 29.—The Republican State Convention, held here to-day, developed rather tumultuously, a lively fisticuff preceding the opening of the session when a number of those who favored the selection of Senator Foraker for the Presidential nomination attempted to force their way into the convention, which was controlled by the supporters of President Roosevelt and the policies of the present National administration. Quiet was restored, however, when a special officer, stationed at the door of the convention hall, drew his pistol and threatened to shoot any one who attempted further to force an entrance. The outcome was the holding of two conventions, the "regulars" indorsing the National administration and selecting delegates known to be favorable to the policies of President Roosevelt. The "bolters" adopted resolutions in denouncement of the President's National administration, and instructed their delegates to vote for Senator Foraker for the Presidential nomination. DR. REDMOND A BENEDICT. The news of the marriage of Dr. R. L. Redmond, who finished with the class of 1908 Meharry Medical College, at Indianola, Miss., was quite a surprise to his Nashville friends, though it was known that he was engaged. The announcement cards received in this city last week stated that Miss Julie P. Thomas, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Thomas, and Dr. Redmond were married on Sunday evening, April 19, at half-past 9 o'clock, at the A. M. E. Church in Indianola, Miss. At present Mr. and Mrs. Redmond are residing in Indianola.

St. Eli Baptist Church was the scene of a church supper on Monday night of last week which in its entirety was a huge success. The entertainment was under the management of Mesdames J. L. Douglass and Jno. Rucker, while they were assisted by Mr. Ernest Foster. These managers and their assistant had promised a supper worthy of the reputation of the church for such affairs and as the pastor, Elder G. T.

INTERRED IN NASHVILLE. The remains of the late Prof. Arthur D. Langston, father of Mr. C. N. Langston and brother of Mrs. J. C. Napier of this city, who died in St. Louis, Mo., on April 7, which had been placed in a vault in that city, awaiting a final decision of the family as to the place of burial, arrived in Nashville last Friday morning and were taken to the undertaking establishment of Taylor & Co., where the body lay in state all day and was viewed by a host of sorrowing friends. The interment was made in the Napier lot at Greenwood Cemetery at 3:30 o'clock Friday afternoon in the presence of the family and a few intimate friends. Rev. G. L. Imes, pastor of Howard Congregational Church, officiated. The decision to inter here was reached after some deliberation, and the widow, who is a sister of Mr. J. C. Napier, at once notified the relatives here and at other places. Letters and messages of condolence were received from all parts of the United States. REV. B. G. GORDON GIVEN A SUR- PRISE PARTY. On Monday night Rev. B. G. Gordon, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, was pleasantly surprised in the nature of a storm party. The entertainment was gotten up by some of the ladies of the church, and they kept it in absolute secrecy. Rev. Mr. Gordon showed his surprise by an expression of delight as is shown by a child at Christmas time. A few friends, not members of the church of which Rev. Gordon is pastor, were present. Rev. W. S. Ellington, pastor of First Baptist Church, made a short talk, as did others present. At the conclusion of the exercises, refreshments were served. Rev. Mr. Gordon received many presents that will be of use to him on his trip to Norfolk, Va., in attendance at the General Conference of his church.

THE QUESTION. The one important question before the republican voters of Davidson County is: Shall the people or a self-perpetuating committee rule? We have dwelt continuously upon the rape of power by the committee which recently named an alleged convention for the purpose of keeping the mass of the party from expressing its will in a regular way. We have shown how the republican newspapers were ignored as if it were feared that a publication of the proceedings of the committee would prove detrimental to its plans. We have shown how it is alleged that a demand was made that each voter be in possession of a poll tax receipt as a prerequisite for voting and that a compromise was made upon a registration certificate. We have shown how, when the committee-selected and committee-named convention was in session, one of the bosses appeared upon the platform with the type-written names of every delegate to the proposed Congressional Convention and those to a Convention that had never been called, ready for his convention to adopt without division. A travesty on justice—a cut and dried affair. Do not these snap methods show the effort of a machine to boss the whole county irrespective of the wishes of the voters? These irregular proceedings of the committee and the committee-selected convention do not meet the approbation of a large per cent of the members of the party. Likewise there is great dissatisfaction at the pernicious activity of federal office-holders. A way though has been found whereby the voice of the members of the party will be heard and their rights respected. At the convention which is to be held in the Twin Building, May 15, there will be a blow struck to deliver the party in this county from the control of machine politics and the domination of federal office-holders. NEGRO NEWSPAPERS AND THE NOMINATION. Negro newspapers are fast approaching the point where they can and will be of great service to the race. Yet, in some instances, a few of what should be called among the leading journals of the country, pursue such erratic courses that the suspicion is not wanting that their editorial space is for sale. Especially is this noticeable in the present contest for delegates to the National Republican Convention. Some of the papers, when the contest first began, were dyed in the wool supporters of one candidate, vowing THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY, MAY 1. 1908 that before they would support an administration candidate they would bolt the party. Others stated that when they endorsed Roosevelt, they would be dead. But now some of these self-same papers, without waiting until all the state conventions have been heard from, are sneaking over to what they conceive to be the strong side. It were better that such newspapers as these were not in existence. A newspaper that has the courage of its convictions, one that will support an unpopular candidate from principles, is to be admired; but the newspaper or the person who changes in its support of candidates merely to be on the winning side merits contempt and should be consigned to oblivion. Those Southern newspapers that claim, with all the similated piousness of saints, that the Negro has been voting against his best friend, the Southern white man, for forty years, seem to forget that for over forty years they and their kind have been voting against the Negro, and have done all in their power to keep him from voting for his "best friend." In their pious mood they seem to forget that their panacea for all the ills of the South—economic, moral and financial—is "a white man's party." In one breath they accuse us of trying to force ourselves where we are not wanted, and in the next, blame us for not forcing ourselves where they state explicitly we are not desired. For persistent inconsistency some of our "best friends" take the first prize. Foraker's speech in the defense of the discharged soldiers and in support of his bill to reinstate them seems to be hard to answer. Senator Borah made a speech in reply, Senator Warner made one attempt to answer it and is due to get off another, while our own James B. Frazier, of Tennessee, has decided, since Mr. Foraker delivered his powerful arraignment of those who oppose the soldiers, that he will not speak on the subject at all as had been previously announced. Frazier, at least, was wise. He probably remembered that "fools rush in where angels fear to tread" and kept out of the discussion. The General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church will convene in Norfolk, Va., next week. This is the supreme body of this denomination and since a large amount of the business of the connection will come up for adjustment and several bishops and general officers are to be elected, it will be a meeting of unusual interest. The Globe will have a representative upon the scene and expects to furnish its readers each week with an account of the proceedings. Heflin has compromised his case with the white man he shot by agreeing to reimburse him for all expenses and losses incidental to his disability. He will yet have to face a District of Columbia court for the felonious assault upon the Negro. It is to be hoped that he will receive the just trial which he is due and be compelled to pay the penalty for his rash act. Judging from the uninstructed and split delegations being sent to the National Republican Convention from the South, the federal office-holders have not been able to deliver the goods to Mr. Taft as it was confidentially predicted they would do some months ago. It begins to appear that after all, Southern office-holders will not dictate the republican nomination. Every republican who believes that the people should rule; every member of the party who does not endorse lilywhitism nor the intimidation of federal office-holders, should be present at the Davidson County Republican Convention on May 15. It's a pity that such a conservative as Gov. Patterson should have as his chief supporter such a radical as the Nashville American. Such an alliance is almost as remarkable as Carmack's declaration for state-wide prohibition. One of the federal office-holders prophesied some time ago that Tennessee would go up to the National Convention solid for Taft. At that time he thought he was the republican party of Tennessee. COMMUNICATIONS. Echoes of the Heflin Episode. To The Nashville Globe: To The Nashville Globe. Tom Hefflin, the pistol toting representative from Alabama, who figured recently in a shooting scrape at Washington, D.C., in which he wounded two men, has succeeded, it is said, in squaring matters with McCreary, the New York man, who was an innocent victim of his (Hefflin's) wild and reckless shooting. Hefflin has agreed to make good, it is said, all of McCreary's expenses while in the hospital and also to further reimburse him for loss of time. It will be remembered that Hefflin was trying to eject a colored man from a street car, bringing into play his ready hip pocket artillery, when McCreary was shot. The affair created quite a sensation at the time, owing to the fact the principal of this street brawl was a national representative. He occupied a high position, but position has nothing to do with a man, if he does not possess the requisite qualities commensurate with it. The man that could step down from the lofty position of a national councillor and legislator to that of a common scrapper, assuming and executing the duties of a policeman, is totally unfit in every sense for that position. A man like Heflin seeking notoriety is not expected to let any chance slip him, and most especially is he expected to magnify and take advantage of anything that he may lay at the door of a Negro, which will help him to reach his coveted niche, if but for a brief moment, in the public eye. The Negro has been for a long, long time the stepping stone by which a certain class of men has come into public notice. Such men have resorted to all sorts of trickery at the expense of the Negro to effect their desired ends. They have, inveighed against the Negro in the most strenuous manner, even though they knew their rantings were rank misrepresentations. Heflin had failed with his "jim-crow" street car measure, and he was bitter. Rankling deep in his heart was the consciousness of the contempt that must have been his by those who had not only given his little "jim-crow" measure a black eye, but had done for it what all men are bidden to do to the serpent in the egg, they killed it in its little shell, and this so inflamed this man Heflin as to send him forth on the war-path armed to the death and ready to shoot any Negro who even glanced in his direction. He was not long in finding a target for his gun, but being over anxious to get his man—a Negro man whose life didn't amount to much in comparison to the notoriety it would bring him—he winged a white man, too, who chanced to be passing with his wife. This was an act that was not down in Heflin's intended tragedy, and now he is called upon to pay the fiddler of this extra part. JADECEE. Pneumonia—Consumption. To The Nashville Globe. Pneumonia is frequently followed by other serious ills that continue during the balance of one's life. Catching cold is easily done. Colds get busy, and unless you have "a clean up day," you will have pneumonia or inflammation of the lungs: after having suffered from pneumonia five or six times, there is nothing or no disease so sure to come as consumption. Catching cold is easy, but catching health is not so easy. When the chilliness with deep seated pains, short breath, high fever, headache and restlessness come, who can say, This will be a case of pneumonia and nothing more? When the short, hacking cough, followed with tough, tenacious sputum; when suppuration takes place, when the heart is so very weak, why not be far-sighted and get ready to fight consumption? When the night sweats come on; gastric derangement, with loss of appetite, gradual emaciation, and increased weakness take a firm hold, the disease is called consumption, yet the beginning was pneumonia, following a cold. Pneumonia is not self-protective. Lung fever is but another name for pneumonia. If one will but notice the number of cases of pneumonia, then compare with the number of cases of consumption, the question will arise as to which is the most frequent of the twin diseases. The old term "lung fever" corresponds very closely with the views at present concerning the nature of pneumonia. Pneumonia usually begins with a chill, pain in side, one or both lungs affected, pain intensified by deep breathing; respiration is quickened, shallow and often irregular. At a later stage there may be urgent shortness of breath. Cough is usually troublesome from the beginning of the attack. The characteristic tough, rusty expectoration is seen on the second day. It may, however, be absent throughout. Fever blisters—herpes, often appear on the lips and nose; appetite is lost, thirst excessive, vomiting may occur, especially early in the attack; constipation is the rule, diarrhea the exception. Headache, sleep lessness and delirium are met with in severe cases; fever is almost always high from the beginning, 104-F, and conforms to a typical course. It is subcontinuous in type. There are other diseases that lead to consumption; but, as much space has been used in describing diseases leading to consumption, no doubt the reader would like to read some of the causes, preventives and cures. Before leaving this subject, we will say whooping cough, so prevalent in this section, is a forerunner of consumption. A WITNESS. WEDDINGS Hasting—Haynes. A pretty home wedding was that of Miss Mary Hasting, of 415 Seventh street, to Mr. Joseph Haynes, of North Nashville, on Thursday, April 23. Rev. Mr. Moore of the M. E. Church officiated. The marriage ceremony was witnessed by relatives of sitting parties and a number of intimate friends. Miss Hasting wore a beautiful princess gown of white silk mull over satin and trimmed in baby Irish lace, she carried white carnations and bride's roses; her veil was caught with orange blossoms. The bridesmaids were Miss Elsie Bass and Miss Katie Davis. The bride was given away by her sister, Miss Lizzie Hasting. The best man was Mr. John Davis. The ceremony was followed by a reception. Lowery-Bradford. In the presence of a large number of friends Mr. Edward Lowery, of Huntsville, Ala., and Mrs. Josie E. Bradford, of this city, were united in marriage on Wednesday evening, April 29, at 8 o'clock. The ceremony took place at the residence of the bride, 132 Fourteenth avenue, North, Rev. W. S. Ellington, A. B., officiating. Only the most intimate friends were invited, and still the home was well crowded, as both contracting parties are well known in the city. The bride was born and reared in and about Nashville, while the groom up to a few years ago was in business in this city, moving from here to Huntsville, Ala. Mesdames N. J. Anderson and C. V. Roman were matrons of honor. The wedding march was played by Mrs. W. S. White. The reception was held from 8:30 to 10:30 p. m. A large number of gifts, some of them coming from many parts of the country, was received. The bride and groom were entertained by Mrs. N. J. Anderson, who served a wedding breakfast for the bridal party on Thursday morning. They left the city at 3:30 Thursday afternoon for Huntsville, where they will reside in the future. Turner—Dunlap. A pretty home wedding was solemnized Wednesday evening, April 15, when Mr and Mrs Dunlap gave in matrimony their daughter, Ada, to Mr Sam Turner, at the residence of the bride's parents on Georgia street. The bridal party entered, led by Mr. Arthur Taylor and Miss Sallie Smith, followed by the best man, Mr. Joe E. Matthews, and the bride's sister, Miss Verna Dunlap, who was bridesmaid. The bride wore a cream-colored Albitrose and a veil caught up with daisies and carried a bouquet of pinks and fern. Miss Smith wore a white organdy trimmed with golden cord and satin ribbon and carried a bouquet of pinks and fern. The bride's sister wore a yellow silk mull and carried a bouquet of pinks and fern. Rev. Dr. Flagg officiated. Many useful presents were received. The couple will reside at their home on Georgia street. JACKSON TEMPLE C. M. E. CHURCH NOTES.

SOUTH NASHVILLE. SCHOOL EXERCISES. On Friday, April 24, the Rock City School held its closing exercises, which were attended by a large number of parents and friends. To Prof. W. P. Rose, the principal, and Mrs. L. G. Benton, assistant instructor, much praise is due for the success which the school has had during the past year. The kind of work which it has done shows a marked advancement over that of previous years. It has had an extended course in manual training, which has proved to be one of the leading factors in its progress.

Those present were Mesdames Mary Holder, Lona Dotsson, Ula Miller and Sophia Dodson. MONITOR CHORUS. The Monitor Chorus entertained in honor of Mrs. Lula Williams of Chicago, Monday, April 27, at the residence of Mr. W. J. Blanton, 1307 Hynes street. Music and games were the features of the evening. At a late hour light refreshments were served consisting of ices and cake. IN CHANCERY AT NASHVILLE, STATE OF TENNESSEE.

Several efforts have been made to capture three bands of wild hores feeding in the neighborhood of Kit Carson. Among the group that runs wild about twenty miles north of the town are said to be a powerful horse and an equally handsome mare that would make a team worth about $400. A huge sorrel stallion with a blaze face, a tail that reaches to the ground and a heavy, flowing mane is the leader of the band and is said to be so wary that up to date all attempts to run down any member of the group has resulted in failure. Have your washing done at the Economical Steam Laundry. Let us do your Whenever a man appears on the horizon the stallion sounds the alarm and starts the band off in the other direction, led by a small roan bronco. The stallion himself brings up the rear snapping at the mares to make them faster, and if too hard pushed he will stride off by himself. 412 Cedar Street. Dr. J. B.

Send for free book and particulars. The country where this band roams is known as the Little and Big Springs section, and the farmers in that vicinity are watching their own horses closely to keep them from joining the wild herd. A domesticated horse is often coaxed away by a band of wild ones and in a few days is as wild as the rest. Winter Bros. Room 14, 822 N Ave. CHICAGO, ILL.

Vernon, Register of the Treasury of the United States, and Dr. Booker T. Washington by the citizens of Nashville at the Spa Cafe: For him who is imbued with the spirit of our country's political institutions and history, "America hath charms to soothe the savage breast." Though we are once in a while mortified by the folly of some of our people in refusing to sing: "My country 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty," we are constrained to throw the "mantle of charity" over them, and to pray: "Father, forgive them; for the yknow not what they do." For where else on this planet could we hope to enjoy the generous measure of religious and civil liberty which we, as citizens of the United States of America, now enjoy? Under what other system of government could we expect to come into man's full estate? But says one: "The Negro must have a flag of his own, before he will be respected as a man." I answer: The Negro in America has a flag of his own bought and defended by our fathers' blood. We have a country of our own, enriched and beautified by our parents' sweat and toil. We have a constitution of our own, sealed with our blood in every war of the Nation, and sanctified by our love and devotion. Our flag is the Stars and Stripes. Our constitution is the Constitution of the United States of America. Our country is the "Goddess of liberty, enlightening the world." Shame on him who utters slander against her fair fame for she will yet vindicate her title—"The land of the free." Her promise of equality of opportunity is presaged by our marvelous advent from bondage to citizenship. The Declaration of Independence is God's voice whispering to the conscience of the Nation. His Word cannot return unto him void. The Constitution has squared itself with the Declaration of Independence. The laws are squaring themselves with the Constitution. Here we enjoy the inestimable blessings of the Christian religion. This gift of God is as free and beneficent to us as to the most favored in the land. The sense of His Fatherhood is speedily bringing to us the consciousness of the brotherhood of men. His divine yoke is fast elevating us to morality and spiritual light. Under the fire of His love we are coming out of the bondage of superstition and error. Here we possess the unparalleled riches of the English tongue. We are not pent up by a provincial dialect. Our mother tongue is spoken by 130,000,000 human beings. We are thus placed in direct correspondence with this vast number of thinking and aspiring men. The masterpieces of literature of all nations of all times have been translated into our tongue, enabling us to commune with the saints, bards and sages of the world, and to think and live in the centuries. Largeness of contact begets amplitude of life! What a boon to dwell in a land the keel of whose religion is the love of justice and whose timbers are meekness, patience, charity and love! What a privilege to be a citizen of a country whose organic law is the vehicle of justice. Under the imperial aegis of these two institutions the Negro in America will work out his destiny. Where else has the Negro as a class attained to so exalted a status in religious and civil life as has the Negro in America? The right of trial by jury is conceded to him. The writ of habeas corpus is available to him. It matters not if in practice these rights are reduced to a mere travesty of justice by those who administer the law, still this is no fault of the system. For the inherent and innate virtue of our system of government is impervious to the assaults of human perfidy. I am more solicitous about our ability to rise equal to these glorious privileges than I am about the integrity of our polity. Our right to own property is a vested one. Here we have dedicated temples wherein to adore God and conform our lives to that of Jesus of Nazareth. Here marriage is at once a religious and civil institution; and we are establishing homes, where we can imbibe the sweets of conjugal parental and filial loves. Over all this broad land, schoolhouses are open to our youth. We are learning to sing with equal facility, "Gloria in excelsis Deo," and "I want to be like Jesus in my heart." Our government is one of God's great man-developing instruments. Three hundred years ago the Negro's ancestors were pagans and barbarians. Fifty years ago we were slaves. To-day we are Christian American citizens. The journey of the human race out of idolatry to monotheism has been exceedingly painful and tragic. Its road from mere monotheism to the present standard of Christianity is red with blood. Have we paid near so dearly for this priceless jewel? The political institutions of our country are self-purging, self-renewing. The Declaration of Independence is the divine measuring-reed; and the Nation's ideals and character are evolving and expanding to its requirements. Let us not be disturbed about race prejudice; for in the economy of God's kingdom it is applied to salutary uses. But for it, would our honored guest have been called to teach the youth of the Nation that "work is honorable"? Take no anxious thought about the President's attitude towards you. Be not unduly elated or depressed whether he frowns or smiles upon you; for patience, industry, virtue and faith are sure to win here. Let us not be deceived by political parties; for to-day they praise, but to-morrow they slaughter the guilleless victim. Officials and parties are creatures of the moment; but the fundamental principles of this government are eternal. Hitherto the Negro in America has been dealt with by the government in mass and as an adjunct, and not upon lines of individual merit. While class distinctions are repugnant to the genius of our government, this condition was induced by our unique status in the body politic. Four million slaves emancipated by the stroke of a pen! Four million ex-slaves elevated to citizenship in the most enlightened government in the world by an amendment to our organic law! Four million unlettered people in the grasp of rapacious demagogues! Has there ever been such a stupendous strain upon a political establishment before in history? Patriotism sublime! Institutions divine! Have we proved equal to the responsibility? Politically, we have acted as a class. Our status has at least proved to be the occasion of the political solidity of one great section of the country. In the other section we have kept a party in power until it has grown insolent and rapacious. It is well for us and the country that one great party has closed its doors to us; and it is a happy omen that the other is throwing us over board. We shall soon be out under the blue dome of Constitution, unexposed by party strife and contention. There under the stars and stripes, we shall have leisure to study the mechanism of our government. We shall then learn that the good-will of the sheriff in our several parishes is rather to be chosen than the favor of the President of the United States; that the custodians of our "life, liberty and pursuit of hapiness" abide with us all days. We shall then learn that the wisdom of building the wall before our own thresholds. We shall then perceive that it is fatal to our interest to remain a party issue. Then parties will align themselves on moral and industrial questions. In that event, personal merit and patriotism will be the prerequisites to political preferment. Be assured that the Nation will not so begrudge the least of us full legal and political rights and immunities as to forfeit its religion and jeopardize its government establishment; for it remembered that every political privilege which we now enjoy came through the Nation's devotion to the integrity of this scheme of government. Fortitude in suffering best discovers the beauty and nobility of human character. Loyally in season of oppression will best betray the quality of our patriotism. Then let us sing "America" until it becomes a part of our Children's mental furniture. Sing it until it is indelibly stamped upon their hearts. For this country's failure is our undoing. Her triumph our hope. Her destiny our destiny. "Our fathers' God, to thee, Author of liberty, To thee we sing: Long may our land be bright, With freedom's holy light; Protect us, by thy might, Great God, our King!"

Roman, who recently made a visit to Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., has received a very complimentary mention by the editor of Tuskegee Student. He says the following in their issue of April 25: "Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, Tenn., to whose visit we last week referred, conducted a three days' clinic, at the Institute Hospital, during which time he treated cases of special diseases of the eye, ear, nose and throat. He also fitted several pairs of glasses, and with the assistance of Dr. J. A. Kenney, our resident physician, performed two very delicate operations on the throat. While here he spoke very acceptably in the chapel during its regular Sunday evening service and also addressed the nurses of the Institute's Hospital." 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. Every Church Ought to Have a First-Class Communion Set. 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.

SHELBYVILLE NOTES. SHELBYVILLE NOTES. Commencement season at Turner Normal is all the talk in town now. This promises to be the greatest event that has ever been pulled off in Snelbyville among the colored population. A class of twenty-five from the English Department, and two from the Normal, will graduate. Commencement season will open May 26th and close June 5th. The great cantata, "Jeptha's Daughter," will be produced Friday night, May 29th, at the City Opera House. This promises to eclipse anything that the colored people have attempted. It will be rendered wholly by the students of Turner Normal. Three games of baseball will take place during Commencement week between T. N. I. team and neighboring towns. The Pearl High School Team played the Turner Normal boys a few days ago on T. N. I. campus. Two games were played and both sides claimed the victory; although the teams were quite evenly matched. The Nashville boys were given a banquet by the T. N. I.'s in the college chapel. Profs. Washington and Cameron accompanied the Nashville boys. It seems that a very friendly association has sprung up between the two schools. Turner Normal boys anticipate going to Nashville soon. A swell reception was tendered President Jones, of Turner Normal last Monday night by the students as a surprise, complimentary to his departure to the General Conference at Norfolk, Va., in May. Dr. Jones left Wednesday and expects to be gone about two weeks. The students are considerably stirred up over the report that their president may not return on account of a possibility of being elected to a general office at Norfolk. Mr. T. T. Ransom has opened up his grocery again. This time it is in a brick building. The Scott's Chapel M. E. Church people are again working on their new building. It will be the most handsome colored church in town among the colored people. Rev. R. B. Ross is a great worker. Rev. Dr. A. Moore is very low with typhoid fever. His recoverey is doubtful. The Mt. Zion Baptist Church has recently been blessed with a great revival and many converts were added to the church. Rev. Mr. Underwood is doing a great work in this town. EBENEZER NOTES. The most interesting event of the season was that of the Easter exercises. The program was read by Miss L. J. Hall, and the choir furnished excellent music. Miss Reba Johnson presided at the organ. Dr. Chappelle and family were out, and it was a great pleasure to have them with us. Dr. Chappelle gave a fine lecture to the school. The church was beautifully decorated with potted flowers and purple lilies. Miss Cotton gave a very interesting talk, and impressed upon the people to use their influence to have the A. M. E. Publishing House located in Nashville. Mr. Wm. Lusk read a fine paper. Dinner. prepared by Mesdames Hall, Buchanan and Walker, was served in the church. The Sunday-school was opened at the usual time with 54 in attendance. A prayer-meeting was held Sunday evening at the home of Mrs. Mary Hall. Mr. Wm. Howlette, our superintendent, who has been indisposed for quite a while, was with us Sunday. Miss Temple Jennette met with a painful accident Tuesday morning.

SCOTT'S GRADUATE PIANO RECITAL The first installment of the Walden University commencement exercises was brought off Monday evening by the graduate piano recital of Miss Mabel E. Scott*, of 124 Wharf avenue, daughter of Bishop and Mrs. I. B. Scott. A large crowd was present. Miss Scott's piano and voice assistants were Misses Beatrice Stewart and Gertrude Lewis. Miss Scott is a good interpreter of music and gives fine expression to its soul. Her performances were greeted with hearty aplause. She is a beautiful and accomplished young lady, modest, of a fine and kindly disposition, and withal of a useful turn of mind. She presented the following selections, which were highly enjoyed: Duo—Coppelia ... Th. Lack Perpetuum Mobile Rondo .....C. M. von Weber Songs—"La Serenade" ..F. Schubert —"Baby" ..Mrs. H. A.

Just as the Atlanta Baptist College has stood in the lead of all Atlanta's Colleges in football for the past three years, so it is now leading them in baseball. It has the splendid record of winning seven out of nine games. This gives a percentage of 778, while no other college in Atlanta has a percentage of more than 500. At Morris Brown College last Saturday A. B. C. won the most overwhelming victory that has been won in Atlanta this season. The Morris Brown boys went down to the tune of eleven to one. They put in two pitchers against the Baptist boys, but neither was able to check the "Maroons" steady advance A. B. C. won her latest victory over Knoxville College. The Knoxville boys are in the city now. They have lost both to M. B. C. and A. B. C., but they defeated Atlanta University by a score of eight to four. The A. B. C. boys are now in Birmingham where they will play two games and return to Atlanta via Talladega, where they will play one game. With her present lead it is very likely that she will finish on top of the list of the Gate City's college teams. Promoters Seeking Gans. With Joe Gans, the lightweight champion, in San Francisco, every fight promoter out on the coast is already beginning to make him big offers to fight. Jack Gleason has signed him to fight next month at his club in Frisco, for which he will receive $10,000 for his end. Jim Jeffries has also offered Joe $12,500 for his end to box the winner of the Battling Nelson-Rudolph Unholz battle a 25-round contest at his club on May 30, while Jimmy Coffroh, who pulls off all the big battles at Colma, Cal., is also after Gans to fight the winner of the same fight, but is only willing to offer 65 per cent of the gross receipts. Gans will probably fight at Jeffries' club after his bout in San Francisco, as he is very friendly with the big fellow. They're Off. The Standard Giants left the city this week for Louisville, where they play three games, and possibly the fourth game will be played. With the "tossers" in good condition they should more than break even, as they are going on the road in first-class trim—new suits and caps and individual suit cases, and what the town is talking about is "That they looked good." Bring back the scalps boys! * * * Jack Johnson has landed in England. Maybe he can find Tommy Burns now; that is, if Burns does not jump into the ocean. *** The Athletic Association of this city is preparing for their first show of the season. FISK LITERARY CLUB The Fisk Literary Club met with Mrs. S. M. Lowe and Miss Minnie M. Hunter at the Blind School. The meeting was opened with prayer by the president, Mr. P. R. Burrus. After reports from different committees had been received and other business pertaining to the club disposed of, THERE IS ENOUGH Unavoidable Suffering in the world without enduring the needless sort. The vast majority of HEADAGHES are NEEDLESS This has been abundantly proved through the years we have made Kleiser's Headache Powders It cures all kinds of headaches without depression or other harmful results. It is one of those remedies that you should keep handy constantly. Any headache is more easily cured when cured promptly—and suffering is saved also. Price, 10 cents.

The annual inspection of Company G (unattached) Tennessee National Guard, took place in their armory one one night last week. It was conducted by Capt. C. B. Rogan, U. S. A., who is on his annual inspecting tour. He was assisted by Lieut. Ewing, inspector of the state guard. Much interest was centered in this inspection, as it has been known that Company G heretofore has been able to make a fine showing on each inspection. The men were determined this time, if possible, to reach perfection in every way, and to this end Capt. H. H. Bowman had been working. The uniforms, the equipment and the company property were all arranged for Monday night. A full attendance of the company was present. Promptly at 9 o'clock the command "Fall in" was given and three-score of stalwart, brave boys in blue formed in two ranks lengthwise the armory at Hightower Hall, and stood at ease for thirty minutes awaiting the arrival of Capt. Rogan, who was not long in putting in his appearance. Immediately upon his arrival the usual military courtesies were gone through and the company turned over to what is conceded to be one of the most polite, genteel, dignified army men who has ever visited this city wearing the uniform. The entire company was carried through a most rigid inspection, but each soldier presented such an air of confidence in his own critical, scrutinizing estimation that he was certain there was nothing lacking to make the record come up, if not exceed, any preceding year. The entire company, with the officers and musicians, was inspected, as was the company property. As soon as the inspection was over, Capt. Rogan was asked by a Globe representative what his opinion was of "our boys," to which he replied: "You can say, and quote me as saying, that in my opinion this is one of the best companies in the state. I think it is the largest company that I have found in Tennessee, and I am so well pleased with the results of the inspection to-night that you can say further that not a more orderly company, one observing more the rules and regulations of state militia is to be found in the state. I have inspected them rigidly, and I have not found one rusty piece, one bad uniform or one pair of shoes that was not polished. Neither have I found a dirty collar. All of this goes a long way towards completing the neatness and the general appearance of any company. Another thing is that they recognize the fact that as soldier boys they must be subordinate. They behave well." After this Capt. Rogan openly complimented the officers and men in flattering tones, for which he was enced in the soldiers' way by the beating of the guns on the floor. At ten thirty the inspection was over, then came the exhibition drill for the benefit of the two inspectors, which took place on Haymarket square. The difficult moves, formations and drills that were ordered and executed without the slightest imperfection, so pleased Capt. Rogan that he was heard on several occasions to say, "Good," "Fine," "Perfect," etc. After going through a drill of thirty minutes the company was halted and Capt. Rogan made another speech, in which he declared that this was his fifth time to inspect the company and that each time the inspection had been more rigid, but the percentage had not been reduced. He had found them in every way up to the required standard. He continued to compliment the company and officers. At the conclusion the demonstration was prolonged and the applause extremely hearty both from soldiers and citizens. There is no question that the pride of the people is constantly manifested in the attention given Company G, which can boast of the distinction of now being the only recognized military company south of the Mason & Dixon line. This reputation has been gained by no little effort on the part of officers and men. They have labored under the most discouraging circumstances. There is little appropriation made for them, and notwithstanding the fact that the Dick Bill is now a law, this company is not always favored with direct returns, yet the hope is that this year will find them better equipped, better clothed and given better quarters in the form of an armory in order that they may have the proper drills when the weather is too inclement for outdoor maneuvers. The officers and staff of the company consist of H. H. Bowman Captain; John H. Nicks, First Lieutenant; John Holman, Second Lieutenant; Chas, O. Hadley, Surgeon; Thos Brown, First Sergeant; Frank Dickson, Quartermaster-Sergeant; Preston Taylor, Chaplain. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1908. col gave m. At the club on an that will forward May 8, 1 invi- Many visitors were present to wit- ness the inspection and exhibition drill. Among them were Capt. Spicer and Lieut. J. C. Boyle, of Company K. Every one present seemed to be well pleased with the program of the even- ing and the showing made by Nash- ville's well-disciplined, well-trained gentlemanly soldier boys. A CRUSADE FOR CHILDREN. An Effort on Foot to Get all the Children to Attend some Sunday school on Sunday Mornings. "We must have the children at any cost. They must attend some Sunday-school. To this end are we diligently and earnestly working. When our Saviour said, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God,' it was evidently intended that we should go out and encourage them, and that no one should hinder or discourage them." These remarks were made Sunday morning at Sunday-school and at the eleven o'clock services of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church by Dr. Clark, who has just returned from a successful revival meeting in Birmingham. Dr. Clark reports having had one hundred and eleven converts. He came home thoroughly inspired over the present outlook and stated to the Sunday-school and church that he would not be contented until every child in Nashville was attending some Sunday-school. To this end, a committee was appointed to make a house-to-house canvass, beginning in the vicinity of Mt. Olive and spreading out until the whole town has been thoroughly worked. Mount Olive Sunday-school is already a large one, and has done a great work. It has not restricted its efforts to its own church or school, but has been instrumental in sending many pupils elsewhere. Last Sunday morning the school was opened promptly at 9:30 o'clock by Rev. T. J. Lewis. As many as 265 teachers, officers and pupils were present. Song service was led by Prof. L. S. Gray, after which the classes studied the lesson "Jesus Teaches Humility" for thirty minutes. The lesson was reviewed by Mr. L. S. Gray. Dr. Clark addressed the school. Mr. S. P. Harrison, teacher of Class No. 10, presented to each of his fourteen pupils, for faithful attendance, a package of Easter greetings. A new class was organized with Mr. John Ridley as teacher. Class collections were announced and the school was dismissed by the pastor. Tuesday night the teachers assembled at the regular weekly meeting. Mr. John Ridley conducted the lesson, "Our Heavenly Home," for Sunday, May 3, in a most interesting way. The meeting adjourned after benediction was pronounced by Rev. H. A. Boyd. PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CLUB. The Phyllis Wheatley Club met at the home of Mrs. Albert Davis, 5 Garden street, on Thursday, April 30, at 3 o'clock. The following was the program for the occasion: Program Reading ..... Mrs. L. J. Harlan Music ..... Miss A. K. Davis Paper ..... Mrs. Ella Ewing Talk ..... Mrs. H. Campbell Music ..... Mrs. Willa Townsend Quotations ..... From Dunbar CLUB DANCE. One of the most beautiful dances in the history of the Peerless Club was the Easter dance at the Odd Fellows Hall on Monday evening, April 20. There was an unusually large company of guests, including quite a number from out of town. Palms decorated the ballroom; stands of roses and lilies adorned the reception and dining-rooms. Music was furnished by Messrs. Stafford and Huston, and a feature was the grand march at 10 o'clock, led by Mr. William Kennedy, president of the club, which was carried out with grace and spirit. Coffee, sandwiches and ices were served at a late hour. DR. CALENDER TAKES A TRIP. Dr. J. S. Calender of the Class of 1908, Meharry, left the city this week for his home, Georgetown, British Guiana, S. A. He will stop at several of the islands, including Barbadoes and St. Kitts before reaching South America. He expects to return in four or five months. His family will remain in the city during his absence. CONCERT AT PAYNE CHAPEL The concert at Payne Chapel on the evening of April 27 was a decided spices of Mrs. Sallie King, was a decided success.
