THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. III DELEGATES TO NATIONAL CONVENTION ELECTED. SENATOR JOSEPH BENSON FORAKER ENDORSED AS CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENCY— REV. DR. R. H. BOYD MAKES ENTHUSIASTIC SPEECH — SEVERAL ROUSING SPEECHES MADE— REPUBLICAN ORGANIZATIONS OF SOUTH SAID TO BE MERE FARCES—NUMBER OF RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. The Republicans of this the sixth Congressional Convention are stirred as they never have been before over the high-handed effort of those who, for personal aggrandizement, have sought to control affairs of the party so as to make it possible for a committee to select delegates to the alleged County Convention of Davidson County. Men prominent in all the affairs of the district, such as Dr. R. H. Boyd, head of the biggest Negro institution in the South; Richard Hill, formerly head of the Negro Department of the Centennial Exposition, and now one of the city's leading real estate dealers; Rev. Luke Mason, for nearly forty years identified with political affairs of this district; J. O. Battle, Editor of The Globe; Horace G. Scales, one of the leading stone contractors of the city; T. G. Ewing, Attorney-at-law; T. Clay Moore, an energetic young real estate dealer and business man, and many others prominent in the affairs of the race of the city and county, were present at the conventions held in the Twin Building last Friday and Saturday. Both Conventions were the most harmonious ever held in this city by the party, it is said. Enthusiasm was at white heat, and on the second day, when the Rev. Dr. R. H. Boyd addressed the body, it seemed as if the applause would raise the roof from the building. It is said by those who attended previous meetings held by Republicans of this county, these two meetings were by far the most orderly held this year, and, likewise, the most largely attended. PROCEEDINGS OF DAVIDSON COUNTY CONVENTION. The mass meeting of Republicans of Davidson County met pursuant to the call issued April 16, in the Twin Building hall Friday morning, May 15, at 11 o'clock. Mr. Horace Scales read the call for the Convention, and upon his motion, backed by the second of Mr. A. M. Cockrill, Mr. Richard Hill was elected Chairman. Mr. Hill, on being chosen Chairman, spoke as follows: "Gentlemen, I thank you for so honoring me. When so many hands are turned against us, when our children are lynched before our eyes in broad daylight, dying with their pitiful cries of innocence on their lips, and nothing done about it, it behooves us to do little talking, but much thinking and put all the rest in acting, looking to God our Creator for guidance." After prayer by Rev. Luke Mason, J. O. Pattle was elected Secretary; R. C. Martin, Assistant Secretary. On motion of Rev. Luke Mason, the following committee was appointed on resolutions: Luke Mason, A. M. Cockrill, Durand Houston, B. G. Bryant, A. R. Davidson. On motion of Horace G. Scales, the following committee on delegates to the Congressional Convention was appointed: H. G. Scales, Rev. S. A. Mattheus, S. R. Johnson, J. L. Douglass, Rev. S. G. Dotson. While the committee on resolutions and delegates was out T. G. Ewing and James Bumpass addressed the Convention. The committee on resolutions reported a set of resolutions which were adopted. The committee on delegates recommended the following as delegates to the Congressional Convention: Richard Hill, R. C. Martin, Horace G. Scales, A. M. Cockrill, J. O. Battle, Durand Houston, Jerry Baker, Rev. Luke Mason, Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, B. G. Bryant; alternates, Scott David. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MAY 22, 1908. son, S. F. Johnson, J. L. Douglass, Rev. G. B. Taylor, J. W. McLemore, Rev. Robert Page, Felix Paskett, S. H. Johnson, T. G. Ewing. On motion of Horace G. Scales the Convention adjourned. CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTION. The Sixth Congressional Convention met in the Twin Building on Saturday morning. Four out of the five counties in the district were represented by delegates and alternates. One county was unavoidably detained on account of their inability to make railroad connection to reach the city in time for the meeting. The meeting was called to order by Prof. Richard Hill, who read the call M. B. Chairman of the Sixth Congressional Republican Convention. Rev. Mr. Mason has been pastor of Lewis Street Baptist Church for thirty-two years and has held positions of honor and trust in Davidson County. He was a member of the county court for six years, and also a member of the County Executive Committee for twenty years. for the Congressional Convention.

The chair appointed the following committees: On credentials—R. C. Martin, Phil Goodrich, E. E. Parchment, D. A. Cowherd, Wilburn Cross. After the Committee on Credentials was appointed, and while waiting for their report, S. J. Johnson, Rev. Martin and Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., addressed the Convention. Dr. Boyd spoke with much force and made many telling points, dealing with the treatment accorded the Negro in Davidson County by the alleged "Lily-white" factions; paid a feeling tribute to Confederate soldiers, stating the he himself had been in the Confederate army and declared amid much applause that he believed the Negroes should be taxed to help pay a pension to them, and he further declared amid much greater applause that he believed the taxes taken up for school purposes should be so spent as to give every child an equal show. Dr. Boyd spoke for about an hour, and when he had completed, the Convention, on motion of Prof. Hill, gave a rising vote of thanks to him and the others who had addressed the body. The Committee on Credentials reported the following delegates and alternates: Davidson County—Richard Hill, R. C. Martin, Horace G. Scales, A. M. Cockrill, J. O.

Clement, editor of the "Star of Zion," responded in a magnificent address, in which he reviewed the history and labors of the A. M. E. Zion Church. He closed by saying: "Tell your denomination that the A. M. E. Zion Church, with its 600,000 members, is ready to march shoulder to shoulder with the 300,000 of your church and batter down the gates of prejudice and sin." Rev. A. E. Rags, of Atlanta, Ga., told in a short address of the work in the South of the American Bible Society, which he represents. The dedication of a recently acquired church property at Lombard and Uber streets, took place Sunday afternoon. Addresses were made by Bishops George L. Blackwell, Martin R. Franklin, C. R. Harris, I. W. Smith and George W. Clinton. The new church will be named Varick Temple, in honor of James Varick, the first Bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church. The reports of Bishops J. W. Hood, J. W. Alstork, J. S. Caldwell, Alexander Walters, C. R. Harris, J. W. Smith and George W. Clinton showed gratifying progress. The financial reports show that over $400,000 were raised during the past four years. The quadrennial address was read by Bishop George W. Clinton. The address makes an exhaustive review of affairs in Church and State during the past four years, especially as they affect the denomination and the race in general. The next quadrennial session will be held in Charlotte, N. C. SKETCH OF THE NEW BISHOPS Dr. George L. Blackwell was born in Henderson, N. C., in 1861.

Norfolk, Va., May 18.—On Friday evening, May 15, a scene was witnessed in the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church in session that will ever be remembered by all who witnessed it. The incident in question was the election of a secretary or general manager of the Sunday School Union, the publishing house conducted on the Public Square in the city of Nashville, by the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Dr. W. D. Chappelle has been at the head of this department for the last eight years, and a strenuous fight has been waged against his administration for several years, and especially so by Mr. Ira T. Bryant, whose home is in Nashville, but who has been in the employ of the Government for several years. Mr. Bryant made attacks in such an intelligent way that the delegates came to the Conference with their minds made up and were only waiting for the time to come to cast their ballots. When the hour arrived and the presiding officer announced that the election of secretary would take place, over two hundred determined men were on their feet in less than two minutes—yelling at the top of their voices "Bryant!!" "Chappelle!!" Bryant!!" "Chappelle!" It was a case of "You, father, not your son; this is no child's play." When the ballots were counted they showed Bryant to be elected. The defeated candidate stood for a few minutes with his eyes fixed on the friends of Bryant as they carried him on their shoulders into the street and then turned and walked calmly away. It was rumored that he would contest, but on Monday, May 18, this was set to naught by Dr. Chappelle in no mistaken tones. When the general conference opened this morning with Bishop L. J. Coppin presiding, Revs. A. A. Gilbert, of Missouri, and J. T. Jenifer, of Kentucky, conducted an impressive song and prayer service. The Rev. Dr. W. D. Chappelle obtained the floor on a question of privilege and stated that rumors were current that he intended to fight his successor and contest his seat. "It is a gross misrepresentation," he said, "as I will return to South Carolina and take up work. If this church can afford to turn down a minister with a family for a layman without then I have nothing to say. I will come back four years hence, line up with the laymen and be made a bishop. "South Carolina will accept of whatever you send it. We have no choice of bishops. Whoever you send we will take, down to the modern Cataline." This brought to the floor the Rev. Dr. R. C. Ransom, who said that in ancient times every man was required to study Cicero's orations, in the great school of Europe, and in that it is ascertained that the most detestable character in history was Cataline, and it is an insult to compare one of our bishops with him. "I mean what I said," retorted Dr. Chappelle, "and I have no apologies to make. I will stand any kind of punishment before I will retract what I have said. We will do our duty by the church. I will go to Nashville with my successor and introduce him to the banks and other places." The feature of the session was the election of secretary for the Allen League Christian Endeavor. The contest was between three young men—Revs. E. J. Gregg, of Florida; M. W. Thornton, of Pennsylvania, and J. C. Caldwell, of Missouri. Rev. J. C. Caldwell was elected on the second ballot, Dr. Thornton having withdrawn. The Rev. Dr. L. L. Thomas, of Baltimore, Md., will present fraternal greetings from the Methodist Episcopal General Conference to night. No.20 PLANTATION MELODIES AND OTHER NUMBERS RENDERED IN SUPERB STYLE—"STEAL AWAY TO JESUS" ADMIRABLY EXECUTED—MR. JOHN WORK HOLDS AUDIENCE SPELLBOUND WITH "LOVE ME AND THE WORLD IS MINE"—"GLEE CLUB SPECIAL" A GREAT ENTERTAINER. On Friday evening, May 15, there was held in Fisk Memorial Chapel, the annual concert of the Fisk Glee Club. The club was honored by what was probably the largest concert audience ever assembled in the chapel. The organization has twenty-one members this year and set a high-water mark in the quality of its work. The numbers ranged all the way from plantation melodies to grand opera and were rendered in superb style. Without doubt, the finest piece of execution was that of the plantation melody, "Steal away," harmonized by F. J. Work. The effects were weird, striking and grand, with a consuming pathos pervading the whole, which gave as nearly a perfect specimen of music as one would care to hear. The variety of the program was most pleasing Mr. Ryder, the possessor of a fine bass voice and of keen musical intelligence, sang the "Song of Hybrias the Cretan," by Elliott, and so well did he render it that he was liberally enced. The addition of Mr. Ryder to the club adds greatly to its efficiency. Mr. Myers, always ready and able to please, projected a strong spice of variety into the program with his readings from the Works of Paul Laurence Dunbar. The audience demanded four numbers from him and wished for more. It is doubtful if there is a man living who is his equal in this role. The "Pilgrim's Chorus" from the Tanhauser of Wagner, with its full organ accompaniment was suggestive of the sublime. The most unique feature of the concert was the "Informal group" when the whole club sat easily on the rostrum and rendered several selections, as follows: Male quartette, "In the Valley of Kentucky," by Messrs. Mitchem, Burnam, Wesley and Kendrick. This was finely done and received merited applause. "Kentucky Home," by Messrs. Work, Myers, O'Hara and Ryder, which the audience wished to be repeated; "Love Me, and the World is Mine," sung by Mr. Work, with humming accompaniment which the audience would not let pass by without an encore, and "Last Night," with the same arrangement, was given. Then the Glee Club special, which, with a change of verses, all original, is sung every year. It is a satirical report of the doings of the University folk, and kept the audience in an uproar during the rendition, after which, with pennants waving, the whole club, and a large part of the audience, accompanied by both the organ and the piano, sang the Fisk song, "The Gold and the Blue," which was a most fitting finale to the best concert the Glee Club ever rendered. "THE MIKADO" AT LOUISVILLE. Special to the Globe. Louisville, Ky., May 18.—The Treble lef Club, a musical organization of this city, presented to a large audience last Saturday night the opera "Mikado," and it was one of the finest amateur companies seen here in years. It was tuneful and catchy, and the story as portrayed by the brilliant company was very humorous. The society people were out in large numbers. A number of visitors were here from all over the State. Among the most prominent were Miss Mary Willie Fletcher, of Nashville, Tenn., and Mrs. Elizabeth Gee, of French Lick Springs, Ind. Both are the guests of Mrs. John Watson Cooper and occupied boxes at the opera. Contractor, Builder and Practical Bricklayer He has always been able to please the homefolks.

Nashville's Most Patriotic Race-Loy. years, five ye Mr. Nashville's Most Patriotic, Race-Loving Women Battling to Maintain A Worthy Institution Are our people willing to do a part of their duty? Can we live within the sacred bounds of the great and good saying, "Bear ye one another's burden," or will this cruel world that is often styled cold and friendless, do what the Scriptures admonish them to do in, "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmity of the weak?" These things are perplexing, and when a retrospective view is made of the conditions as they really exist in this city, the matter becomes serious. The people of this city know considerable about the strenuous efforts these women have put forth to keep alive and to properly conduct the Day Home. Many citizens have contributed to this worthy cause, yet there are hundreds who have given only their good wishes, which up to this day have not succeeded in paying the expense of any concern. The mission of the Day Home is no unworthy one. It is a necessity as it proposes to take care of the needy and neglected little ones whose parents are not able to hire special attendance for them. It is a charitable work that every Negro in Nashville should be interested in and should support. The members and officers are embarrassed often because there are no funds with which to prosecute their work. The matter becomes so serious that special attention was called to it last week. A Globe reporter called on and saw Mrs. Preston Taylor, who has for the past several months tried to assist in meeting up this work. Mrs. J. C. Napier the president of the Day Home, was also consulted at length concerning the possibilities of the continuance of this charitable institution. They both declared openly that unless they received more financial aid than they have received heretofore, it will be impossible to keep the organization in tact, so that it can do the effective work outlined, such as it has been doing in the past twelve months. Using the words of one closely connected, who said, "You may say in your paper, Mr. Reporter, that we are receiving absolutely nothing from the public at large. We appreciate the donations received from a few and the general sympathy on the part of all, but unless we can raise at least $50 every month, our Home must be discontinued and the little ones turned adrift." Such appeals or such statements, so truthful and so pathetic, should bestir all of Nashville. Later on, conversation was held by promoters of the Day Home and sympathizing friends, at which it was practically agreed that the Day Home would ask every secret organization in Nashville to put a collection box in their halls and ask after each meeting that a small individual contribution be deposited in this box, and that the same methods would be pursued in placing these contribution boxes in public places. Aside from those there will be one stationed at the One Cent Savings Bank to receive any donation that can be made. No one will doubt that the secret orders will grant this favor and that they will contribute towards the maintenance of the Home. An urgent request is also made upon the citizens of Nashville to either send to the secretary, Mrs. A. B. Carter, 713 Gay street; Mrs. Preston Taylor, 447 Fourth avenue, North, or to Mrs. J. C. Napier, care the One Cent Savings Bank, such amounts as they can afford to donate. This should be sent every month. Several organizations have taxed themselves to the amount of $1.50 and $2.00 per month for the work. This is contributed towards the expense account. Assurance is given to the public that the wants of the little ones in the Day Home will be provided for as far as their means will go. MR. A. J. ROHELIA IN TEXAS. Some time ago Nashville bade goodbye to one of its oldest and most prominent citizens; but this is not expected to be a last farewell, as Mr. Rohella has resided in this city for a number of years. He was a very skilled dairyman and had been employed at Fisk University in this particular work for a number of years. One of the strongest testimonials taken with him on his trip to Texas was given by Mr. Irvin V. Cobleigh, the present Treasurer of Fisk University. A recent letter from the party written from New Orleans states that they reached the Crescent City and found a hearty reception. Mr. Rohelia is a veteran of the Civil War, having joined the Federal army in 1863. After service of about three weeks and three days, he was promoted to the position of orderly sergeant, which rank he held with distinction for fourteen months and seventeen days. After leaving the army, he was employed on George Wright's plantation on the Mississippi River, near the Big Bye Peer. He followed this up for some time and then served as deputy sheriff under W. E. Long, then he was elected as coroner, holding this position for two years. Finally he moved to Greenville, Miss., and engaged in the employ of a large oil mill for Mr. Geo. W. Billinger, giving three years' service with him. He was afterward appointed on the police force of that city, where he served for nine years five months and fourteen days. years, five months and fourteen days. five years. Mr. Rohella was afterwards elected constable and served in that position for two years. He finally decided to come to Nashville. After moving here he went to the Tennessee Industrial School and served there for nine years, seven months and nineteen days. This sketch is given of Mr. Rohella as a token of what the citizens of Nashville have known about him for some time. REV. W. S. ELLINGTON'S ITINERARY. Rev. W. S. Ellington, Editorial Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, delivered the baccalaureate sermon at Roger Williams University last Sunday. Monday night, the 18th, he delivered the anniversary sermon at the closing of the high school of Centerville, Tenn., Prof. T. J. Clinisson, Principal, Rev. Mr. Ellington will also preach the anniversary sermon at Trinity School, Athens, Ala., Miss Ida F.

On Tuesday, May 26, he will deliver the commencement address at Albany Normal School, Albany, Ga., Prof. Benj. F. Cox, Principal. BIRTHDAY PARTY. On Friday night, May 15, Mrs. T. A. Wilson, of 286 Fillmore street, entertained friends at a birthday party in honor of her husband, Rev. T. A. Wilson, and her son, Mr. William Armstrong. The house was beautifully ornamented with decorations of cut flowers, American beauties, peonies and carnations. During the evening a three-course lunch was served. Those present were Rev. and Mrs. T. W. Johnson, Rev. R. S. Stout, of Little Rock; Rev. Mr. Jones, of Lane Chapel; Mr. and Mrs. John Finley, Mrs. Anna Frierson, Misses Clare and Eloise Frierson, Mr. John Fleming, Mr. Chas. Powell, Miss Mary Ewing and Mr. W. H. Williams. TAFT IN THE CITY. Definite information has been received that Hon. Wm. Howard Taft, Secretary of War, and the most talked of candidate for the Republican nominee for President, will speak at Fisk University to-day. Whether Mr. Taft will speak in the morning or afternoon will depend upon his previous engagements for the city. The authorities of Fisk have extended a general invitation to all of the people of the city to be present and hear the distinguished gentleman, and it is more than probable that the invitation will be accepted by many of Nashville's citizens. Mrs. Alexandria Mayberry, of St. Louis, Mo., arrived in the city with her three boys Monday, and is spending several days with relatives. She will leave early next week to visit her parents at Hillsboro, Teen. BACCALAUREATE SERMON HOPKINSVILLE, KY. The annual sermon of M. and T. College was the occasion for a large congregation at the Union Gospel Tabernacle in Hopkinsville, Ky., last Sunday. Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., one of the most popular former Kentuckians, and a son of Hopkinsville, for the third time preached the annual sermon. All the protestant churches of the city out of respect for the college and Dr. Clark closed their houses of worship and assembled at the Tabernacle to hear Dr. Clark. These occasions have become quite pronounced, as the college stands high in the community. Prof. Frazier, the President, is one of the foremost educators of the state of Kentucky, and one of the best, if not the best, organizers within the Baptist denomination. The music rendered by his chorus Sunday morning and afternoon was said to be the best ever heard in Hopkinsville. Miss Johnella Frazier, daughter of the President, and only a sixth grade pupil, presided at the piano. The citizens made a donation of $90 to the college.

The Chairman of the Convention was empowered to appoint a Congressional Committee composed of two members from each county, and five from the district at large, who shall nominate an elector for this district and congressional candidate. The committee on resolutions reported a strong set of resolutions in which a "Redeclare our allegiance to the principles of the Republican party, and reaffirm our devotion to the leaders of that great party which stands for the freedom of every citizen of the republic, white and black, who is following in the footsteps of such statesmen as Lincoln, Grant, Sumner and Morton, and we feel the party has done more than any other nation and history to uplift not only all citizens of the republic, regardless of race, color or previous conditions, but of all mankind throughout the earth; that we are of the opinion that the time has not been reached when it is to the best interest of the nation for the Republican party to go out of power, and we call upon every citizen who loves the political institution under which we live, to advocate and support the Republican party in the coming national contest. "That we are deeply in the faith that a permanent Republican party can not be built up in the state of Tennessee and in this district unless the Republican masses are permitted to control affairs of our party instead of the office-holders, and we deplore the history of our party management not only in this state and district, but throughout the South for many years past; that we condemn the pernicious activity of office-holders in politics in the South, and we declare that said activity on the part of the office-holders, with the exceptions of a few congressional districts, had made Republican organizations in the South a mockery and a farce, and but for the bold violation of law by the office-holders in seeking to control our par- NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISHING BOARD.

That is our judgment if the office-holders were forced by the national administration to attend their official duties and obey the law by keeping out of active politics, the party in Tennessee can be harmonized and her electoral votes secured for the Republican nominee for President this year." The resolutions endorsed Senator Joseph B. Foraker as one of the greatest statesmen that Ohio and the country had produced, and recommended him to the National Republican Convention as a suitable candidate for the presidency. The delegates, however, were uninstructed. The Hon. W. J. Oliver, of Knoxville, Tenn., was instructed for National Republican Committeeman from Tennessee. The committee on delegates to the National Convention recommended the following delegates: Horace G. Scales, Richard Hill; alternates. A. M. Cockrill, C. B. Butts. At this point Dr. R. H. Boyd made the Convention a present of a box of cigars, and while the delegates smoked, the Convention listened to addresses from Horace G. Scales, Richard Hill, A. M. Cockrill, C. B. Butts, J. O. Battle, T. Clay Moore, Rev. S. A. Matheus and others. The motion was passed unanimously thanking the Nashville Globe and the daily papers of the city for the many courtesies extended and the fair manner in which the proceedings of the previous day had been reported. The Convention endorsed The Globe as the official mouthpiece for the Sixth Congressional District, and amid a fanfare of good humor adjourned. MT. OLIVE BAPTIST SUNDAY SCHOOL The Mount Olive Baptist Sunday School had an enrollment of nearly 300 pupils last Sunday and was opened by the superintendent promptly at 9:30 o'clock.

Prof. Richard Hill was one of the visitors and made a short but most instructive talk to the school. The class collections were read and Miss Mary Dunson's class of young girls captured the banner. Benediction was pronounced and the school was dismissed. The regular weekly meeting of teachers and officers was held Tuesday night in the teachers' room, Rev. T. J. Lewis conducting the meeting. The lesson for Sunday, May 24, "Jesus' Death and Burial," was studied. After benedictioin the meeting adjourned. MISS LILLIAN BURTON HILL AND MR. EUGENE TURNER PAGE.

THE FORAKER BILL. Consideration of the Foraker Bill to reinstate the discharged Negro soldiers accused of shooting up Brownsville, has been postponed until December. Upon the motion of Mr. Foraker himself the Senate, by almost strict party division, agreed to vote upon the measure on the 16th of December. This action of the Senate came as a surprise. Judging the rumors of dissatisfaction upon the part of the Senators over the threats of the President, it would have been thought that the matter would be threshed out at this session of Congress. "Political expediency, however, decreed otherwise." The postponing of a vote upon the measure until after election, was the one common point upon which all the factions of the republican side of the body could unite. It was probably hoped that such action would remove Brownsville as a political issue. But will the postponement have the desired effect? Will the Negroes of the country, with the fate of the men admittedly innocent in the balances, rally to the republican banner with their old time enthusiasm and carry doubtful states for the party? Mr. Foraker evidently has sought to divorce politics from his fight for common justice to the Negro soldiers, but he has not been completely successful. Brownsville is a political issue with the Negroes and it remains to be seen whether they will hold the republican party to accountability for its non-action upon a bill for reinstatement of the soldiers at the present session of Congress. THE CONVENTION The Globe's fight against machine politics in Davidson County bore fruit in two of the most orderly and harmonious political conventions last Friday and Saturday ever held in the city of Nashville. These conventions brought out determined men who believe that the power of the republican parly is inherent in the masses and that no executive committee nor band of federal office-holders have the right to usurp authority not granted to them. The Conventions were notable in that they were attended and endorsed by so many thoughtful men of the race. In the meetings were men who have the confidence, respect and support of a large majority of the party in the district. They were there for business and they transacted it in a manner above reproach, something that can scarcely be said of some con- ventions held in this city in recent times. When the Globe denounced the trickery used by the local executive committee to thwart an expression of the voters of the city, we knew the temper of the people. But one federal office-holder, who expected to profit by the scheme, denounced us, it is said, on the floor of his alleged convention as an enemy to the race. Poor fellow, he did not know the feelings of voters who are not candidates for some small fry office. He had probably been so busy trying to make the party "decent" that he had not the time to consider such a thing as what the people would think of the committee's coup. But, all of that is in the past. The delegates elected will go to Chicago. When it is shown before the National Committee what rottenness exists in the management of affairs in some sections of this state, when it is shown what the men endorsing the Sixth Congressional Convention stand for, it is more than probable that Richard Hill and Horace Scales will be seated. The agony is over in the A. M. E. General Conference. The bishops and general officers have been elected. The A. M. E. Sunday School Union located in this city, is to have at its helm, a young layman who formerly resided in this city and, in fact, we believe, calls Nashville his home. While we regret to lose Dr. Chappelle, we must congratulate Mr. Ira T. Bryant upon the brilliant victory which he achieved and would bespeak for the publishing house on the square a prosperous quadrennial under his guidance. The most detestable lily-white republican under the high heavens is the Negro lily-white. If anyone could believe such a person to be sincere in his affiliations with such a faction he might at least respect him for his sincerity, though doubts might be entertained as to his sanity. Neither the chairman of the Davidson County Convention nor the chairman of the Sixth Congressional Convention said: "I won't hear you for one minute." These conventions were republican "love feasts," too! Taft returned from Panama only to be shipped post haste to Nashville. The Secretary of War must be after the long distance record. We do not want to be too insistent, but what has become of the Board of Trade? CONTRIBUTION. CAUSES OF CONSUMPTION. The causes of consumption are remote and exciting. Of the former the most important is hereditary predisposition. It is not, however, an actual cause of the disease, and hence there are many cases in which the offspring of consumptive parents do not fall a prey to this disease; but it renders those who are in that condition much more liable to be affected by the exciting cause. Whatever weakens the strength of the system or interferes with the oxygenation of the blood tends to the production of this disease. Hence living in bad air, insufficient and unwholesome food, and sedentary pursuits, tend to it. Among the more exciting causes are exposure to cold or dampness, especially after the body has been heated, intemperance of any kind, profuse evacuations, and exposure to the reception of dust into the lungs, as is in the case of janitors, street sweepers, firemen (of furnaces), scavengers, etc., in fact, a great number of pursuits the Negro is compelled to follow in order to gain a livelihood. I was for several years compelled to listen to lectures and quietly read papers and books, where I was told the theory of the most learned men was, "the black man is more susceptible to consumption than the white man." (The same has been said of the red man, but I am too busy just now to discuss the red race.) I applied to a certain insurance company (some years back) for membership, but the excuse was, "that the death rate from consumption was greater among the colored race than among the white race." I insisted that facts and figures were not because the colored race is so much weaker than the white race, but owing to existing circumstances the race fell an easy prey to the disease. Time passed and a few years later agents from the same company have often asked me to join. After refusing one agent, whose native home is New York, he told me that the statistics of this great insurance company showed that the deaths from consum- tion were about equal among the two races. Another lecturer on "Tuberculosis," recently said the colored race was not the more susceptible to this disease. Now, accepting this theory, let us find the cause. Statistics show that they very seldom died of consumption fifty years ago; the oldest people tell us that during the days of slavery, the owner and not the slave was the victim of this disease. Why? Any man who owns an animal of any description will, if he is wise, take good care of that which causes him to accumulate money. Man is an animal of the highest order. Once upon a time one man owned many men; his wealth was estimated by the land and number of human being he possessed. The wise owner took good care of his riches. When a slave became sick a first-class physician was called, his directions closely followed, and he was well paid for his services. The wise owner had his slaves well clothed from head to foot. No one was allowed to wear lace hose, slippers, and then shirt waists on Easter Sunday, instead they were forced to wear thick shoes, woolen hose, linsey-wooley underwear, plain, coarse, but protecting outside clothing from early fall until early summer. (To be continued.) PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. This is the last week of study for the pupils of this popular public institution. Examinations begin next Monday when Miss E. J. Terry will test the pupils on their knowledge of ancient mediaeval and modern history. Your reporter has observed an unusual devotion to books and a closer application to studies as the time of examination approaches. Examinations in Science will occur on Tuesday, Mathematics on Thursday, and Latin on Friday. The Commencement program is about ready to be presented to the public. For some weeks past the hall has resounded with the oratory of the two speakers, who are trying to rival Cicero and Demosthenes in their eloquence. If the two pupils who have the honor of representing their class as Salutatorian and Valedictorian sustain in eloquence the reputation they have made as good scholars, the public will receive a treat on Commencement night. Prof. H. L. Keith, the head teacher of the Manual Training Department, is preparing a splendid exhibit of the work done by the children in his department. Prof. Keith is the thoroughly equipped in his line and the Board of Education was fortunate in securing his services. Many persons have already visited the school and were loud in their praise of this work. Dr. F. G. Smith, the principal, was also given a word of praise for the manly stand he took recommending the introduction of this department to the High School Course of Study. The school has been honored this week with the presence of many visitors. Among whom were Rev. W. N. DeBerry, of Springfield, Mass.; Rev. G. L. Lines, of this city; Prof. H. C. Weber, Superintendent; Dr. R. B. Lees, President of the Board of Education; Mrs. J. G. Merrill and Miss Frances Youmans, of Fisk University; and Mrs. Mattie Bright, the mother of Dr. John Bright and Miss Lillie Bright. The Nashville teachers held their last normal meeting in this building on Tuesday. The day was also marked by a special event that was not on the program. It was the presentation to Prof. Weber, of a silver coffee set by the colored teachers. Dr. F. G. Smith presided, and Dr. J. I. Watson made the presentation speech. Prof. Weber seemed deeply affected by this act of kindness and appeared to be completely taken off his feet. Dr. R. S. White, the Principal of Belleview School, was the originator of the movement and was cordially supported in it by all the teachers. The Domestic Science Class No. 6, entertained as guests on Tuesday morning Misses Velma Mosley, Eleanor Battle and Beatrice Hill, Dr. F. G. Smith and Mr. Mansfield Dean. Cake and shebet were served.

There were more than 14,000,000 horses in this country in 1897, but according to the figures for the year just closed, there are 19,746,000 horses in the United States at the present time. This is a gain of nearly 40 per cent, in a decade, a much larger one than the human element can show, in spite of our large and continuous importations. Not only are there more horses, but evidently they are better ones, a striking triumph for the science of eugenics since the value has increased about fourfold, and increasing prices of feed would not account for all the difference. The horse cannot be put down or relegated to obscurity. He survives the withdrawal of the stimulus of race gambling in Missouri, and comes out in fair proportion than ever. As mechanical rivals multiply, he rises in the scale of dignified personality. The very fact of the high cost of the power machines increases his value, just as we have to pay more for corned beef when porterhouse steaks go up. The last horse will probably take his leave at or about the same time as the last man—Boston Transcript. of be put obscurity. of the in Missou proportion WOODARD Drug Co. NASHVILLE, TENN. HILARY E.

He found the order in fine condition with considerable funds in their treasury. The delegated assembly will meet with the Murfreesboro lodge this year. They are preparing to entertain them, and it is certain that all who attend will have a good time. SURPRISE STAG. Last Friday night the members and a few friends of the Young Men's Literary Club assembled at the residence of Mr. Jno. A. Galloway for the purpose of paying a tribute of respect to Mr. J. Mansfield Dean, Assistant Treasurer, who will soon leave for Tuskegee to fill a position. The occasion was a complete surprise to Mr. Dean. He said in part: "I came here to-night to a business meeting, having been informed by mail and also by a verbal message that there was to be a business meeting to-night, and I am prepared for nothing but business. I cannot find words to express to you all my gratitude for the hospitality shown me. Wherever I go, the name of the Y. M. L. C. will be spoken by me in the highest terms." Mr. Dean was so utterly surprised that he could scarcely control his voice. Every officer of the Club made an address and the individual members together with the visitors, among whom were Messrs. D. O. Darden, E. L. Taylor and Louis A. Manson, president and salutatorian of the class of 1908 of Pearl High School, made short talks. Every one enjoyed the occasion. The three most notable addresses were made by Mr. Alexander, Mr. Berry and the President, Mr. Kinzer. At the conclusion of the President's address he presented Mr. Dean with a new Testament as a token of esteem from the club. Several toasts were made. Mr. Eugene Berry, Mr. Summers and Mr. Suggs made excellent addresses. The Quartette rendered several selections and the Glee Club was at its best. Those present were Messrs. M. Douglass, H. J. Stockard, A. R. Stockard, E. L. Taylor, L. O. Manson, E. L. Berry, R. M. Suggs, J. M. Dean, E. R. Alexander, A. E. Floyd, T. K. Rouse, E. L. Kinzer, O. A. Carter, Jno. A. Galloway, D. O. Darden, W. A. Stockell, L. G. Hockett, W. H. Summers, E. P. Bond and J. H. Caldwell who was master of ceremonies. REV. W. N. DeBERRY, OF SPRING- FIELD, MASS. At the residence of Mrs. Belle De Moss and Miss Minnie Moore, Rev W. N. DeBerry, of Springfield, Mass., was entertained to an elaborate banquet. Rev Mr. DeBerry is a native of Nashville and has for the past nine years been pastor of St. John's Congregational Church, Springfield, Mass. He is a preacher of exceptional ability, and is a regular contributor to the Springfield Republican. Some of the articles written by him have been commented upon by the leading journals of the United States. At the banquet that was given his honor the following toasts were offered: Rev W. N. DeBerry as a boy, Hon. J. W. Grant; As I know Dr. Him, Dr. C. O. Hadley; As a Man, Rev G. Lake Imes; As an Exponent of the Fisk Idea Dr. S. S. Caruthers; As a Son of Nashville, Prof. H. A. Cameron; A Physician as a Leader, Dr. F. A. Stewart; Our Laundry Interests, Dr. J. B. Singleton; The Young Man in Business, Mr. T. Clay Moore; Our Publishing Interests, Rev H. A. Boyd; Men for the Times, Prof. H. L. Keith. Mr. DeBerry responded. Among those present, in addition to the speakers were W. H. McGavock, J. J. Lay, Dr. J. H. Hale, Moses McKissack, G. W. McKissack, R. S. Harris, Cass DeBerry, J. W. Bostick, G. E. Washington, D. W. Crutcher and E. B. Jefferson. R. L. Mayfield, a cousin of Mr. DeBerry, was toastmaster. At the conclusion of the repast and speech-making the banqueters sang, "God be with you till we meet again." Rev. DeBerry preached Sunday morning at Howard Congregational Church and left Sunday night for Memphis, from thence to Jackson, Miss., from thence to Atlanta, Ga., from thence to Enfield, N. C., where he will on May 24th, preach the baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of the school of which Prof. T. S. Inborden is principal. From thence Mr. DeBerry goes to Springfield, Mass., by way of Washington and New York. MR. A. N. JOHNSON AT FRANKLIN. Mr. A. N. Johnson, the popular undertaker and embalmer, of Nashville, with his wife, visited Franklin by invitation last Sunday afternoon. Mr. Johnson made the principal address at the decoration exercises of the colored cemetery. Mr. Johnson is an able speaker and delivered an eloquent address to a magnificent audience, his principal talk being along the line of race pride and the progress that the Negro has made in owning property and managing his own affairs. He was equal to the occasion and every word spoken was favorably received by the audience. A few moments after the conclusion of Mr. Johnson's remarks it began raining and the crowd was dispersed and the exercises were ended. Several local speakers were on the program, but did not have an opportunity to speak on account of the rain, except Rev. Mr. Williams, who made the opening remarks. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were the guests of Messrs. Redmond & Ewing, the local undertakers and embalmers, and after the ceremonies they drove to the residence of Mrs. Lucy A. Redmond, in Ewingville, where they were entertained at luncheon, and returned to Nashville on the eight-o'clock train. MARRIAGES. Mat Sherrill and Lula J. Thompson. Jim Williams and Lottie Lansdowne.

The trades taught include carpentry, abinet making, cooking, dressmai:ing, gardening, house and sign painting, vinting and tailoring. ‘The pupils ire so well trained that the demand for them when they leave the school ex- ceeds the supply. ‘The work of the class in printing is an example of what the trade pupils accomplish. The class last year num: bered forty-one, and they not only did ull the work of getting out the annual report of 130 pages, but printed all the institution's stationery and published a weekly four page seven column news: paper. This work would have cos' the institution §2,236.25 outside. ‘The sixty-three pupils in the classes of carpentry and cabinetmaking made all the desks, tables and other piece: of furniture in use in the institution their completed work for the year be ing valued at $4,159.45, Nine pupils ir the classes in house painting and glaz ing did all the work in the building the money value being $4,690.45, Sixty of the older girls acomplishe: the following work during the year Girls’ uniforms, 178; Sunday dresses 20; day shirts, 565; night shirts, 519 white aprons, 154; gingham aprons, 60 balmorals, 81; pillow cases, 223; nay kins, 1,029; towels, 2,440; tablecloths 151; sheets, 596; dresses repaired, 134 hoys’ waists? 156. Cooking was taught to both boys an sirls, and the forty-five girls and twer ty-four boys who took the course ar able to do plain cooking for famil needs and to handle both coal and ga | ranges. There were only four pupil in the art class, while only one bo. cared to study gardening, and only on wanted to be a tailor. DIET FOR SLEEPLESSNESS. Common Causes of Insomnia—tind’- gestion and Hunger. From the London Globe. Dr. William Stevens says that in- somnia is not a disease itself, but the effect of an unhealthy condition of body or mind. When the cause is re- moved the insomnia may be expected to disappear, Every physician has had stubborn cases of it which would not yield to any treatment and for which a change of air or of scene became necessary. But such cases as these should not oc- eur, and do occur only when the suf- ferer has neglected precautions that should have been taken when the trouble first made itself manifest, Insomnia results from causes which can be removed if attended to in sea- son, ‘The most common cause is found in the digestive organs. Hither unsuit- able food, causing insomnia as a fa ture of indigestion, or insufficient food causing the patient to be kept awac by hunger. There are few things which can be universally recommended as diet fo sleeplessness, since what will agice with one man will disagree with an. other. But two things that may al- most always be recommended are lt tuce and celery, FUL. From the Hospital. It is quite ceitain that much maj be done to diminish the risk of tobaccc amblyopia by paying attention to cer tain points of peisonal hygiene. For instance, a rule should be mid: never to smoke upon an empty stom ach, but as far as possible only after meals. It is absolutely bad to smoke before dinner, and equally bad ta smoke late at night to keep awake at one's work. It should also be forbidden to chew the cigar between the teeth, as man smokers are wont to do. . TEACHING OF EXPERIENCE. From the Kaneas City Journal Dr. Hthelbert Gilbert of Deleth 1 willing in marriage cerenon'=? { omit, whrnever requested t2, 1 9 noxious “to obey.” One of Dr. Gilbert's paris’ |o2>7s took him to task about this matter the other day. “What right have you,” he said, ‘to tamper with the marriage ceremony?” Dr. Gilbert, not at all perturbed, laughed easily. “Oh, well,” he said, “that ‘obey’ is a dead letter anyway. The very best woman in the world promised to obey me eighteen years ago, but she hasn't to this day.” wes DIVIDING LINE AT CAPE HAT TERAS, From Forest and Stream. Cape Hatteras is the true dividing line between the North and the South. North of it there is not a trace of th: palmetto and other forms of vegetation which, sub-tropical in character, ceasc there also. Mason and Dixon's line is an imagin ary sort of a thing if the North, bul Hatteras is the outer mark of the rea dividing line and it affords a fine op portunity for study. a HANGING SCAFFOLDS. (From System.) With the modern skyscraping office building has come a new form of building scaffold. Instead of con- structing the scaffold from below, which is impossible in the cases of buildings ranging from ten to fifty stories, platforms are suspended from the steel girders above. On_ these swinging platforms the bricklayers work, and the scaffold is raised as the work progresses, aa EIGHT WEEKS AT LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY. The Lecture Bureau under the di- rectorship of Prof. W.

Nashville will have several local teams this season, with the Y. M. C. A. coming in for their place in the list, with a line-up of the following talent: Pitchers—Reuben Hill, Oscar Brown, Solomon Patton, Wm. Bryant. Outfield—Sam Sweeney, Dave Saunders, Owen Billips, Herbert D. Voorhies. Infield—Jesse L. G. Voorhies, Orlando J. Voorhies, Walter Hollins (Captain) John Caruthers, Thomas Jordan. Catchers—E. W. Littlefield, Manager, Frank Fanroy. William Hollins, President; H. D. Voorhies, Treasurer; O. J. Voorhies, Secretary; E. W. Littlefield, Manager, W. T. Hollins, Captain. Standard Giants. The Standard Giants after a very successful trip abroad, returned Monday morning. Having wiped Memphis off the map, a feat no other team ever accomplished, they moved on Forest City, Ark., and won three games. The Giants will stack up with the strong A. B. C. team of Indianapolis, Monday at Athletic Park. Here's hoping their winning streak will not be broken. * * * On Thursday, May 21, the Standard Giants and the Standard Line of East Nashville met at Athletic Park and went the distance of nine rounds to the tune of 5 to 3 in the Giants' favor. It will take a better article of ball to win from the A. B. C. team than the Giants put up yesterday. The stick work was poor, the base running was slow, and there was a lack of all that goes to make up a first-class team. Take notice, boys. A BIG LAW FIRM FOR NASHVILLE. It has been intimated that Nashville is to have for the first time a big law firm, composed of prominent attorneys. The legal fraternity of this city especially those identified with the Negro has labored under the most adverse circumstances. It is the opinion of the men versed in the practice of law that it is impossible to get the best results on all occasions without an associate or associates in the practice of law, but it was not until very recently that any favorable steps could be taken towards the forming of a competent and reliable law firm, such as enjoyed by many of the large cities. A Globe reporter in conversation with an attorney in this city that has practiced in all the courts and one that has been in the profession in Nashville for some years, is informed that the possibilities are that the proposed law firm will bring together the leading counsels and legal practitioners of the race in this city, in a firm that will be capable of taking care of any cases that may come up. Extra efforts have been put forth in the past three weeks to learn who the promoter of the new scheme was, and just what men would be associated together, but these efforts have been fruitless. In fact, none of the attorneys approached on the subject will give out any information. But no city in this country can boast of a larger number of practitioners than Nashville. The list is large and the talent to be found in it is worthy of the name. When it comes to civil as well as criminal law they will be found the equals of those found in the city. The people of Nashville will welcome this new opening in the professional world. It may be of interest to mention a few of the legal fraternities. Some of which must form this new firm if it is launched: W. A. Crossthwaite, T. G. Ewing, J. C. Napier, R. L. Mayfield, W. H. Hodgkins, P. W. Adams, S. P. Harris, J. J. Rhines, Geo. E. Jackson, Green F. Anderson, James Bumpass, A. N. Smith, W. A. Hawkins, Zack Wood and John Grant. It is thought that there will be legal talent coming here from other cities that will make up the proposed law firm. ROGER WILLIAMS.

The lesson was very interesting and was conducted by the President, Mrs. Fannie Rucker, and Mrs. N. E. Mayberry. The Union Meeting commenced Saturday at 11 o'clock and was conducted by Elder Robert Esmond, of New Town, and Elder Sherman Brown. It was largely attended; the building could not seat the people. There were six added to the church, five by baptism. The meeting continued three days. On Monday Rev. Essex Dorsey, from Columbia, preached at 11 o'clock; Rev. Henry Pleasant, of Tullahoma, and Rev. S. Brown and Rev. R. Esmond at night. The meeting was a great one and long to be remembered, and it was noted for the downpouring of the Holy Spirit. Dinner was served to elders, deacons and friends and visitors from the surrounding towns at Mrs. Williams' on Division street. The Sabbath-school teachers and Superintendent met Friday night and decided to carry out a picnic on the 16th of June up the Cumberland. ARAB MARKSMANSHIP. (From the London Globe.) Regarding the war in Morocco, the last stages of which wrought havoc among the French troops, a French journal recalls a remark once made by the French General Canrobert, in describing the taking of Zaatcha in the Arabian campaign. "All around me," said the famous General, "the staff officers were being killed like flies. I alone remained untouched. Why? For a very simple reason. As usual, I was wearing full dress uniform, with all my decorations and medals glistening in the sun. Consequently the Arabs aimed-at me personally." The times have changed since then, and the Moroccans are better marksmen, as the French troops found to their cost. ROGER WILLIAMS COMMENCEMENT. Prof. J. W. Johnson, President of Roger Williams University, desires to state that owing to circumstances over which neither he nor the Globe had control, an account of the commencement exercises could not be published this week. The Globe wishes to state that the foregoing is correct. It will offer space in next week's issue. JOHNS DEFEATED. The primary election held in Davidson County Thursday resulted in the defeat of C. D. Johns, who was a candidate to succeed himself as sheriff. Mr. Johns, it will be remembered, was elected to the office two years ago as an independent, he having refused to abide by the democratic primary at that time which had nominated Sheriff Cartwright. Mr. Johns made a vigorous canvass as an independent reform candidate and had almost the solid support of the Negro voters of the County and won. It is thought by many persons that had Mr. Johns maintained his independence and stayed out of the primary he would have been re-elected over any candidate the opposition might have brought out. Some of the other offices in the primary are in doubt. VISITS LEBANON IN AUTO Dr. R. F. Boyd and Dr. J. P.
