GRAND LODGE — MASTERFUL
ADDRESS BY REV. S. E. GRIGGS
ELECTION OF OFFICERS IMPORTANT FEATURE—DOCTORS
DOCTORS PLAY POLITICS—GRAND PARDAE OF UNIFORM
RANK—125 RECEIVE HERALDIC
DEGREE.
Clarksville, July 16.—Clarksville has been full of Pythians, Calanthes and M. D.'s this week. The doctors have held their convention, but few of them returned home, for one and all they were deeply concerned in the fight for offices in the Knights of Pythias. So interested were they in politics that the meeting of their own association was almost a failure. That is, compared with other meetings of the body. How well the doctors played politics is evident in the fact that eight out of seventeen Grand officers elected by the Grand Lodge were doctors. A percentage so high that many of the delegates, mere layen, who work for a dollar a day, are beginning to complain, and that, too, in terms not to be mistaken.
The Pythians arrived in great force Monday evening and Tuesday morning. From Nashville there came three special cars filled with delegates from Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville and intermediate points. There was almost a carload of the uniform rank on the train. The opening session of the Grand Lodge was called to order by Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor, at 10 o'clock. The meeting was opened in due form Dr. Crawford read his appointments of committees and while awaiting the report of the Credential Committee, called upon any of the representatives to address the Grand Lodge. Among those to address the Grand Lodge were Revs. J. W. Tate, of Chattanooga, Dr. G. W. Porter, of Knoxville, and Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, of Nashville. Rev. Griggs met with the same hearty response to his masterful address that he did at Knoxville last year. It seems that the delegates cannot hear this forceful address as often or as long as they would care to. The other speakers met a favorable reception.
The Castle Hall of Twentieth Century Lodge is entirely too small to hold such a body as the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of Tennessee and the afternoon parade came as a relief to the perspiring delegates. The parade was composed in the main of Uniform Companies Nos. 3, 5 and 8. The officers of the Grand Lodge attended in carriages, the whole affair being under the direction of Sir R. E. Gee, Grand Marshal. The procession marched through the principal streets, a ban dispensing music. On Tuesday night the Grand Lodge working in the Heraldic Degree, conferred the Fifth Degree upon 125 Past Chancellors. Wednesday morning and afternoon sessions were devoted to the reports of the Grand officers. The first of these to submit his report was Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor. His report gave an account of his stewardship ruding the term and was frequently applauded. He made many excellent recommendations.
Dr. Crawford showed that the past year has been unprecedented in the growth of the Order in this state. That its membership was upward of 6,000 and that its finances (upward of $27,000 in all departments) would bear comparison, and favorably, too, with those of any of the older Grand Lodges of the Knights of Pythias in the country. He entered minutely into his every official act and explained why he made his every decision. It was a fine report, nicely delivered, and the delegates sat spell-bound in the stuffy hall almost oblivious of the heat. Other to submit reports were the Grand Keeper of Records and Seal, Dr. R. W. Allen, of Chattanooga; Grand Master of Ex-
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1908.
chequer, Dr. G. W. Atkins, of Memphis; Secretary of Endowment, Prof. A. Thomas Hill, of Pulaski. All of the reports were referred to their proper committees.
The evening session was dispensed with to attend some of the many social functions arranged in honor of the Grand Lodge. One of the entertainments was a grand ball, another was a musical at one of the Baptist churches, and besides there were several affairs unto which only personal friends were invited.
Thursday morning as never before the smallness of the hall in which the Grand Lodge is meeting was made apparent. It therefore seemed as if the delegates would suffocate while J. Thomas Turner, Grand Attorney, was reading his voluminous report. Add to the hot weather the fact that most of the report dealt with legal matters—something which few of the delegates felt the least interest in, and one can imagine what a task it was to remain inside.
Following the report of the Grand Attorney, Col. J. Milton Easterling, Grand Lecturer, of Chattanooga, submitted his annual report. When this report had been completed and referred, on motion the rules were suspended and the Grand Lodge went into the election of officers for the ensuing term.
The election of officers resulted as follows:
Grand Chancellor—Dr. J. P. Crawford, Nashville.
Grand Vice Chancellor—Prof. J.
W. Lane, Jackson.
Grand Prelate—Rev. G. W. Porter,
Knoxville.
Grand Master of Exchequer—Dr.
G. W. Atkins, Memphis.
Grand Master-at-Arms—Roy Brown, Somerville.
Grand Medical Register—Dr. A. M. Townsend, Nashville.
Grand Lecturer—Dr. J. P. Frierson, Chattanooga.
Grand Marshal—Prof. Wm. Allen, Nashville.
Grand Inner Guard—K. L. Wiseman, Covington.
Grand Outer Guard—J. P. Porter,
Nashville.
Grand Attorney, J. Thomas Turner,
Nashville.
Members of the Endowment
Board—B. J. Farnandis, Memphis;
Dr. J. W. Whitfield.
Trustee—A. W. Williams, Memphis.
Supreme Representatives—A. W.
Fite, Nashville; Dr. A. N. Stevens,
Dyersburg.
Grand Lodge was about
to adjourn the following resolution
was introduced by Dr. Edward Wickliffe,
of Chattanooga:
To increase the salaries of officers
to the following amounts:
Grand Chancellor ..... $500.00
Grand Keeper of Records and
Seal ..... 400.00
Grand Master of Exchequer ..... 100.00
Secretary of Endowment ..... 400.00
Treasurer of Endowment ..... 200.00
Grand Attorney ..... 250.00
This with the salaries of the Grand Auditor, mileage and per diem of officers, the salaries of minor officers and other incidental expenses of officers will run the expenses of our officers close up to the $4,000 per year mark. Your correspondent, who had left the hall to finish and mail his letter, was unable to find what action was taken upon the resolution. Some delegates say it was passed by taking snap judgment on the regular delegates; others, that it was referred to a committee.
The Grand Lodge will reassemble to-night—the morning session having held without intermission for dinner until after 4 o'clock p. m., when much of the routine business such as the report of committees, etc., will be disposed of.
DEATH OF MR. ED HAYS.
On Wednesday morning Mr. Ed Hayes, one of Nashville's leading barbers for a number of years, was taken with severe pains in his head, and notwithstanding medical treatment, he passed away after two hours or more of intense suffering. His two brothers reached the city from Macon, Ga., early Thursday afternoon, as did also Mrs. Rosa Reynolds and Mrs. Mollie Ramsey, sisters of Mrs. Hayes, from St. Louis.
Services were held at Mr. Hayes' late residence, 112 Fifth avenue, South, on Thursday evening. Rev. Mr. Johnson, of Clark Memorial Church, of which the deceased was an esteemed member, officiating. The remains, accompanied by the widow, two brothers and Mrs. Ramsey, were carried to Macon for interment.
Mrs. Reynolds and Mrs. Ramsey will remain with their mother, Mrs. Fannie Walker, for a week or more.

BORNE TO LAST RESTING
PLACE BY FIREMEN.
The news of the death of one of Nashville's well known citizens, which occurred in Brooklyn, N. Y., last Saturday, reached this city Saturday evening. It was unexpected, and by far one of the most sorrowing messages that the papers of this city have received for some time. The remains reached the city on Tuesday morning, accompanied by James G. Trimble, Jr., M.D. Dr. and Mrs. Westbrook, daughter and son-in-law of the deceased, came from Denver in response to the message of death. The services over the remains of the deceased were held Thursday afternoon the 16th inst., at Howard Congregational Church, of which he had been a deacon, and in which he had worked for about twenty-five years, and where he was known and loved for his work. At the church scores of friends, old and new, came to pay their last respects. The services were indeed impressive, memorizing in their nature, and long will be remembered, for the words that came from every speaker was impressively and earnestly spoken, as a tribute over the dead. A processional march began the services, and then, "Must Jesus bear the Cross alone," was chanted by the choir. After an appropriate Scripture reading and prayer, "Lead, Kindly Light," was sung. The following was read by Rev. G. L. Ims, pastor of the Howard Congregational Church:
James Gwinne Trimble, eldest son of George and Laura Trimble, now deceased, was born in the city of Nashville, in the year of our Lord, 1856. His boyhood was spent in the his birth where he attended Fisk University, then located upon the site of this church.
Arriving at maturity, he was married to Janice Compton in the year 1879, which union was broken only by the death of his beloved companion on May 31, 1904. This union was blessed by the advent of three children, James Gwinne, Jr., now a practicing physician in Brooklyn, N. Y.; a second son, William, deceased in childhood; and a daughter, Laura, now the wife of Dr. Westbrook, of Denver, Col.
For more than 23 years Mr. Trimble served as a fireman in Company No. 4, of the Fire Department, located in East Nashville, from which service he resigned on July 17, 1907, just one year prior to his decease, partly because of failing health and in part that he might be near his children and serve them further.
Early in life Mr. Trimble came to the knowledge of Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour, so that his whole career was marked by a goodness and devoutness such as few men attain unto. Constant in his devotion to the church, there was no phase of its activities in which he was not a leader, crowning his years as a faithful, plious and godly deacon of this, the Howard Congregational Church. His last days were spent in company with his son in Brooklyn, where, about three months before his death, a rheumatic affection laid hold upon him with such force and rigor as finally to bring his earthly career to a close.
However, in the midst of his affliction, Deacon Trimble had so far improved as to look forward hopefully, even confidently to an early return to his relatives and friends in Nashville. But amid these bright prospects his malady returned suddenly and with such soreness as to bring the end of his days with only his son and his attendants at his bedside, and leaving thus to survive him as nearest of kin, one son, one daughter, two brothers, and one maternal uncle.
On Saturday, July 11, 1908, at eventide, James Gwinew Trimble entered into that rest that remaineth for the children of God; entered into the fellowship of just men made perfect, entered into his Father's house, where the many mansions be, into his Father's love beyond the crystal sea.
For all the saints who from their labors rest
Who, Thee, by faith, before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest. Alleluia.
And to Thee, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Triune God of our redemption, be the praise and glory of all good—world without end. Amen.
The solo by Mrs. Jennie Cheatham Lee was pathetic and touching. Among those who spoke at the services was Chief Rosetta of the Nashville Fire Department, under whom Mr. Trimble had worked for years, whose remarks were appropriate to the sad occasion.
Dr. W. S. Ellington spoke on behalf of other denominations and the ministry. Father Coombs, of the Holy Trinity Church, was another speaker and then Mr. Joseph McClain, known as an old friend of the deceased, paid his last respects in a simple statement concerning the long friendship that had existed between the two. Rev. Mr. Imes the pastor of the church, spoke at length, characterizing the deceased and his notable career with an honorable yet simple life among the people. The last speaker was Dr. Bumpbas, an official of the L. & N. Railroad. He had known Mr. Trimble since his boyhood days. He gave an elaborate, earnest, yet full sketch of what he had known of the actual and true character of the deceased. The pall bearers were made up of citizens and members of the Nashville Fire Department.
BAPTIST PUBLISHING HOUSE
PICNIC...
Greenwood Park, Thursday, July 16 was the scene of the annual picnic given by the National Baptist Publishing Board to its employees. Nearly all of them were present and many of their friends and other invited guests. The day was an ideal one and every one seemed to have thrown aside every infestering care and to have entered into the pleasures of the occasion with a spirit of zest and good-will which was evident. Expressions of appreciation of the pleasures of the occasion could be heard on every side. The Board gives this picnic annually to its employees as an expression of its appreciation of their past services, and it is most heartily enjoyed by most of them and their friends and is looked forward to with a great deal of interest and anticipated pleasure. Every year this occasion seems to be more enjoyable than the preceding one. It has become one of the fixed holidays of the Board, which spares no pain in furnishing refreshments to make it pleasant for those who attend.
Under the great trees and in their inviting shade on the beautifully grass-covered and gently slanting hillside that runs through the center of the park, there were spread about 2 o'clock the eatable and palatable contents of heavily-laden baskets on wide-spread tablecloths. Soon around these were seated or inclining those who felt uncompromisingly disposed to do justice to the good things before them, and when they arose justice or the other thing—eating—had been done. There was a plenty on the many covers laid for every one.
About 3 o'clock the baseball game was called and everybody repaired to the great, snacious grandstand, or amphitheater, to witness the game between the National Bantists and the East Nashville Grays. For about two hours the spectators were treated to one of the greatest slugging and smashing baseball games seen since the old days when pitching and underthrowing were in vogue and scores or tallies were piled up by the scores. Sometimes a raw error was made and instanter a panic was on and everybody on bases would cross the home plate if he chose. Sometimes one team would be in the grip of this panic demon and then at another. Thus it went on through nine awful innings, which everybody enjoyed hugely. When the dust of battle had cleared away and the results announced the scores stood as follows: East Nashville Grays, 13: National Bantists, 9. After the professionals had quitted the diamond Captains, Lovell, Landers and Archie Pointer, with two teams made up of young ladies, opposed each other, with J. O. Battle, editor of The Globe, as "umph." This game should go down in history as the greatest ever seen on the diamond. It was simply great. An expert accountant would still be

No.28
NATIONAL PRIMITIVE BAPTISTS Second Annual Convention In Session.
AT THE McNAIRY HILL BAPTIST CHURCH
DELEGATES HERE FROM EVERY STATE IN THE UNION—DENOMINATION ADDING NEW FEATURES TO ITS WORK — GRAND OPENING WEDNESDAY MORNING—PLANNING TO BUILD MEMORIAL BUILDING IN HUNTSVILLE, ALA. — ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
The second annual session of the National Primitive Baptist Convention was called to order Wednesday morning by the president, Dr. Jas. H. Carey.
M. S. S.
Devotional services were conducted by Rev. C. H. Morgan. The president then introduced Dr. L. W. Thomas, of Texas, who preached the annual sermon. A large audience was in attendance, composing delegates from nearly every state in the South and citizens of Nashville. At night at 8 o'clock the services were resumed, the main feature being the doctrinal sermon, which was preached by Dr. Mott, of Alabama. He headed his subject in a scholarly way, which met the approval of all the delegates and members. All of the services are being well attended by both delegates, the members of the Primitive Baptist churches in the city, and the citizens generally.
The Women's Convention convened on the same date as the regular Convention at the St. Ell Primitive Baptist Church on Eighth avenue, South. Their meetings are proving very successful. Both conventions are making special efforts to raise funds for the Memorial Building to be built in Huntsville, Ala. Rev. C. F. Sams, the Secretary, in conversation with a Globe representative, stated that the denomination consisted of a membership of over 350,000; that they own 9,000 churches, 10 educational institutions, and are planning to establish a publishing house in the near future.
On Monday the delegates will be given an outing up the river.
SENTENCED TO THE PENITEN-
TIARY FOR LIFE.
Frank Shelby, the murderer of Robert Cooper, who made his escape from the Davidson County jail last Monday morning and was subsequently captured after an exciting chase, was arraigned in the Criminal Court on Tuesday. The trial came to a close the following day. Shelby withdrew his plea of not guilty and entered a plea of guilty with mitigating circumstances, it is said, on advice of his lawyers. Wednesday morning he was sentenced to the penitentiary for life. The murder, it will be remembered, was committed some three weeks or more ago, on Wedgewood avenue, near Cumberland Park, during a crop game, and was for the propose of robbery. Shelby used a heavy stick for his weapon and beat Cooper's head into a pulp.

SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONVENTION
AT ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH.
The Sunday-school Convention of the Nashville District of the Tennessee Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church convened at St. John A. M. E. Church, corner Eighth avenue, North, and Cedar street, Thursday morning at 9 o'clock, Dr. L. W. Haigler, President, in the chair. Services were opened with devotional exercises conducted by Rev. E. Johnson, of Springfield. The morning session was consumed in appointing and organizing the committees.
Miss is the Mr. District Nashv Mes Lilliare Sunday day of Charlie daugh Mrs teenth guest
Rev. A. L. Pinkston, Presiding Elder of the West Tennessee Conference was introduced. He spoke words of congratulation and encouragement Dr. A. W. Lewis, Presiding Elder of the same conference, and who was elected at the last General Conference of his church in Norfolk, Va. Secretary of the Preachers' Aid Association, was introduced. He spoke on methods of doing Sunday-school work. His remarks were very timely and instructive. He urged the delegates to begin a method of investigation and to create and inaugurate new ideas in Sunday-school work.
Bishop H. B. Parks, D. D., who was elected at the General Conference of his church and appointed to the Twelfth Episcopal District, was introduced to the convention. Bishop Parks congratulated the convention on the work it was doing and the success attained. 'He made a special plea for education and spoke especially in the interest of Turner Normal and Industrial College, which is fostered by the A. M. E. Church at Shelbyville, Tenn. In speaking of the missionary work of his church he said: "Of all the Protestant denominations in this country the African Methodist is the only one that makes mission work a secondary matter, and God is not pleased with us." Bishop Parks is one of the ablest men in the Negro race, and a foremost educator and an eloquent speaker.
Between twenty-five and thirty delegates are attending the meeting, which bids fair to be one of the best ever held in the district. Dr. Hailer, President of the convention, said he hoped to raise at least $100 for education.
Thursday night the Sunday-school of St. John A. M. E. Church held a special meeting in which all of the Sunday-schoolors participated. The little folks had been trained by Miss Lizzie Dickerson, Miss Brucie McEwing and other teachers of the school. Their singing was a special feature. The welcome address by Howard Ferguson deserves special mention. At the close of the exercises by the Sunday school several of the delegates made short talks. Dr. W. A. Lewis, a general officer, spoke of the work of the Aid Association of his church. The convention will close Sunday afternoon with a big educational rally.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. JULY 17. 1908.
The professions are so crowded that the successful men and women must be artists, if they are leaders. Friendship, fraternal "pull," acquaintance, have their value, sometimes sectarianism plays a part, but above all these, towering like a colossus, is artistic ability, real genius—brains and skill. Oneness of purpose, if you please. The old adage of "two many irons in the fire—some will burn up," is as true today as when first promulgated. The man who works in iron does well. Iron is a metal, and so is gold; but people who want artistic jewelery never go to the blacksmith's. They do not employ the services of the man who can do both. They want an artist. The architect is the man who builds the house before the lumber is fashioned or the stone cut. In every business there is that same architect and he determines what is to be. The vast majority of the Funeral Directors in this country depend upon the factory's architect to design their caskets and the consumer pays for the service; not so with Mr. Johnson. He devotes his time and talent to designs and drawings from which are made those beautiful caskets which are daily admired by the great number of people who visit his place. He is not "The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker," dividing his brains and talent in things fraternal, ecclesiastical, speculative and adventurous, which promise pecuniary profit; but the one thing he has pledged to do and without doubt is doing—conducting the most satisfactory undertaking business in the country.
Instead of showing pictures from the catalogue, Mr. Johnson has it customers call at his show rooms, and there are numerous caskets of his own creation, made from his drawings, in white, purple, lavender, cream, ashes of roses, ebony, steel grey colors, with a dozen grades of texture in shrine, couch, dropside, and all styles known to the profession. The people see not only the particular casket, but have a choice in the linings, handles, trimmings, etc., and, as a result, the people are all satisfied and the sorrows are largely alleviated because of the hand of an experienced and skilled artist.
Lovers of the beautiful will find Mr. Johnson's work much to admire, even in the paraphernalia of death. Such is the universal testimony of visitors to the city who invariably pay the establishment a visit and come away with words of admiration and praise.*

To add to the already most handsome and elegant turnout in the city, Hon. A. N. Johnson has just received two sets of snowy white, silver mounted harness with all the trappings of completeness—the first of its kind ever shown in Nashville. These will be used on special occasions for his Arabian horses.
HIS TWENTY-FIRST BIRTHDAY.

Late in the afternoon the merry-go-round started its music and became the center of attraction, the cynosure of all eyes, and those eyes were not all children eyes, either. This closed a comedy-of-errors day, one of the most pleasant ever spent in Greenwood, after which every one departed for home, feeling as happy as one of the "Merry Wives of Windsor."

AN EMBARRASSING ISSUE.
The Brownsville affair, besides been incubus upon the campaign of the Hon. William Howard Taft is about to prove embarrassing to the Hon. William Jennings Bryan, the nominee of the Denver Convention.
Mr. Bryan realizes the power of the Negro vote in every state of the Middle West. He knows that with the Negro in active opposition to the republican candidate, his chances for carrying Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and even New York will be considerably brightened. So Mr. Bryan wants the Negro vote; in fact the gentleman from Lincoln has tried to draw all elements to his support this year.
The New York World, previous to the Denver Convention quoted Bishop Walters, who, with a delegation of prominent Negroes, called to see Mr. Bryan concerning his views upon Brownsville and other matters pertaining to the race, in part, as follows: "Mr. Bryan, answering, said that as to conditions affecting the ballot he was not free to discuss.
"As to the appointment of Negroes, they had received by way of appointments from the Republicans very little. His policy would be to give the Negro such recognition as he was fairly entitled to. Personally he believed competent and qualified Negroes should be appointed and given recognition along with other citizens of the country, and where they support the Democratic ticket should be taken into account.
"Mr. Bryan said that he regarded the discharge of the Negro soldiers without honor as an outrage; that if the men were guilty they should be punished in the regular way by court martial or trial by civil courts, as every citizen, black or white, ought to have a fair trial before he is punished in any way.
"He had always thought that to discharge the whole battalion, when at least only a few could have had anything to do with the shooting up of the town, was outrageous, and o be explained only as an impulsive act upon the part of the President."
This places Mr. Bryan on the same side of the Brownsville affair as Senator Ben Tillman, the only Southern Senator to oppose the President's order.
Most of the democrats have kept a discreet silence, so far, upon the question. It seems that they want Bryant to get whatever strength he may in the North from the issue. But Tom Watson, of Georgia, the Populist Candidate for President, has begun an agitation against Bryan on account of the views expressed above. Whether the attack of Mr. Watson will force Mr. Bryan to deny the authenticity of the
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. JULY 17. 1908
views accredited him or whether Bryan will acknowledge the correctness of Bishop Walters' assertions, remains to be seen. At any rate Brownsville is liable to prove embarrassing to Mr. Bryan.
WAR.
The war is on. The republican State Executive Committee, headed by Hon. John Houk, of Knoxville, met in this city Tuesday and called a state convention for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Governor. August 10 is the date set.
The State Committee headed by the Hon. Newell Sanders, of Chattanooga, held its meeting some time ago and selected Nashville as the place where his faction would hold its convention. August 12 was agreed upon as the date.
The fight between the two factions has been very warm, but an effort at harmonizing the differences has been made. It was suggested by the conferences of the Hous faction that a general primary for the nomination of a candidate for Governor be held, but Mr. Sanders refused to consider the proposition. Hence each faction will go it alone.
The compromise offered was a fair one and should have been accepted. By submitting the question at issue to the people factionalism would have been wiped out and an united party would have faced a factional-rude democratic party. But it seems the Sanders faction will be satisfied with Paterson as Governor and Nathan Write dispensing the federal pie.
HUNTING THE "BARREL"
The Washington Bee, one of, if not the first colored newspaper to tack the name of Joseph Benson foraker for the presidency to its masthead, claiming at the time that it would have none of Roosevelt, nor his candidate, seems to be in search for the National Committee's "barrel." The Bee, when everybody knew that Taft had the nomination cinched, jumped into the Taft band-wagon. Here is the way the editor of the Bee indicates that he would like to use some of the Taft money to quiet the dissatisfied colored voters:
"That there is a great deal of dissatisfaction among the colored voters cannot be denied, and if we are to believe present indications there is a revolt among colored Americans.
"Colored orators and politicians who are favorable to the election of Mr. Taft should not underestimate the colored American opposition to him.
"The Bee is a Republican organ and believes in the principles of the Republican party; nevertheless, it must admit that there exists in this country a feeling among colored Americans that must be appeased some way. Can this apathy be appeased by underestimating it and declaring that it doesn't amount to anything? No. By no means will colored Americans be satisfied with promises any longer. Those who will have charge of the Taft campaign must have colored Americans, associated with them who are colored voter. These men should possess character above graft.
"There is work to be done, which cannot be denied, and it is hoped that the managers of the Republican campaign will see the importance of considering the suggestions of The Bee.
"There never was such a determined light on the part of colored Americans as exists to-day, and if the managers of the Taft campaign will not underestimate this opposition and go to work at once, the better it will be for the party."
The Hon. Geo. N. Tilman, who has been frequently mentioned as a harmony candidate for the republican nomination as Governor, has refused to allow his name to be used on account of his health. It is well that Mr. Tillman has declined? His speech at the Sanders Convention would have cost him votes and views imputed to him about a white man's republican party would have caused a number of colored voters to support Gov. Paterson if Mr. Tillman had been nominated.
The large number of typhoid fever cases reported for June should cause those who have the city affairs in charge to ponder the speech made by Mr. Booker Washington in Louisville recently. Impure water and lack of proper sewerage facilities in sections inhabited solely by Negroes endangers the health of the whole city.
Now that Joel Chandler Harris is dead, some of the southern whites who think they know all about the Negro are saying that Mr. Harris created the animal stories told by Uncle Remus. Recent investigations show that tales showing the superior wit of "Brer' Rabbit," and similar to those told by "Uncle Remus" are well-known among some of the half-civilized tribes of Africa at the present day.
The report of the Mississippi Negro Business League, of which Mr. Chas. Banks is President, shows that the Negroes of Mississippi are continuing their great strides towards a high business standing. In Mr. Banks the League has a leader of great force and a man who believes in the possibilities of the race.
In the death of James G. Trimble, Nashville lost a man who possessed a host of friends. Mr. Trimble's record with the fire department was an exemplary one that extended over a number of years. He possessed a tact for making friends and a kindliness on heart that held them when made.
The Prohibitionist was the only national convention so far held that seems like the old time conventions, and it had a "steam roller" to get rid of the man slated for permanent chairman of the convention, after he had made his key-note speech.
The Carmack candidacy was fittingly buried this week. May it never be resuscitated.
One scarcely knows whether Joe Cans really lost the "bacon" or sold it.
COMMUNICATION.
The Negro and the National Election.
To the Nashville Globe:
The Negro or to-day is thinking for himself, and no longer does he in a passive way digest and assimilate only that which is thought out and served up to him by others. For years he felt it his bounden duty to follow the fortunes of the Republican party, because he came into his rightful inheritance of freedom under that party while it was battling for the preservation of the union. For a long time he did not stop to think of how he was freed; he was free and freed under the administration of the Republican party was all he cared to know, and, until recent years, that fact served to command his unshakened fealty toward that party. However negligent the Republican party had been in protection of him in his civil or political rights, whatever had been its sins or commission or omission, whenever it needed his vote, all it would have to say, "I am the party that freed you," that was all that was necessary, he would rush in where angels dare not tread to obey its behests. But to-day that is not the case, and the old cry, "I freed you," has lost its charm.
The Negro now understands that he has never been under any particular obligation to the patty for his freedom. First, the patty, under Abraham Lincoln, was committed to the task of preserving the government under the Constitution as transmitted by the farmers of that great binding instrument; secondly, its action toward the Negro was a war measure of vital necessity in weakening the rebellious states, in that it would deprive them of the support of the slaves who renamed essential help by their faithful仁 in raising corn, cotton and cattle; similarly, 200,000 men as brave as ever met the shock of battle contributed to bringing about the final result—a reunited country.
The chivalrous South would not be frightened by that conditional documentary instrument, The Emancipation Proclamation. It contended that it had constitutional rights to carry its slaves anywhere it pleased, without modulation, within the boundary of the United States. When it was told by the free states this would not be allowed, it rushed to arms, resolved to settle the matter by the arbitrament of war. The resultant outcome of that awful struggle is well known. The Negro should be ever grateful to the South that it would not yield its contention without resorting to the sword. If it given up its contention to carry it slaves, if it chose, beyond the line that divided the free and slave states before the 100 days had expired, which were spoiled of in the proclamation, today the Negro would be writhing in the worst form of slavery that ever cursed the world.
The South is more responsible for the freedom of the Negro than the North. The former would not brook any limitation to the extension of its favorite institution—slavery—and the latter was as determined it should be circumscribed. Then came the clash of arms, and the God of nations saved

the Negro from the general confusion which followed. This much has been said to show that we are under no binding obligation to any particular party. The Negro has now reached that degree of intelligence when he should look about him in an intelligent way and guard his interest by wise participation in the political situation.
Any people who become a fixed asset of any party, without rhyme or reason, right or wrong, have indeed deprived themselves of the privilege of redress of wrongs. This is a thing that has worked much injury to the Negro in the past. He wedded himself to the fortunes of one party, which party failed to protect him in his political right. He should be able to see that now and save himself from utter disfranchisement by a sensible use of his suffrage. When one political party wields the scepter of authority too long, does it not become haughty, overbearing, and corrupt? Does it not feel safe in being indifferent to the protest of those who have been proscribed by its opponent. There is the rub. It is good that a great party that has become indifferent to the sacred trust that has been committed to it should be taught a lesson worth remembering. Is it not the duty of the Negro to help teach such a lesson this coming national election, if it lies within his power? Would it not show him capable of a change of front when such change is necessary as a self-preservation?

In a conversation with Mr. Bryant

The business men of Nashville as
well as the connection of the A. M. B.

this advance. The slogan of Mr.
Bryant seems to be in a _ business
term, “Move on.” Hence he is living

WHAT ABOUT THE THEOLOGICAL
SEMINARY?
Will the National Baptist Convention
Let the Golden Opportunity Slip?
When the National Baptist Conven- a
tion met in its twenty-sixth annual t
session in the city of Memphis, Tenn., ©
during September, 1906, one of the ¢
important measures before that body |
was the National Baptist Theological 1
Seminary, an educational movement }
that had been agitated for many ‘
months. The leading divines of that |
denomination discussed plans and +
submitted propositions for the estab- |
lishment of such a school, The
American Baptist Home Mission So- |
ciety that has rendered substantial
aid from time to time to the Negro |
Baptists throughout the United
States, was also favorable to such a
movement, and through their repre-
sentative at this convention offered a
proposition to give substantial finan-
cial assistance to the establishment
of a national seminary in which
ministers could receive a thorough
theological training. So sincere and
so earnest did the effort seem to be
put forth at that time that a new sec-
retary of the Educational Board was
elected to succeed Prof. John R. Wil-
son, who had been holding the posi-
tion for some time. This new secre-
tary was none other than the Rev.
Prof. David Abner, Jr., of Texas.
Prof. Abner had already established
himself a reputation as a college and
school builder. He had built the
Guadalupe College from insignificance
to one of the largest distinctively Ne-
ero denominational schools in the
Tinited States. But {t happened that
Prof. Abner would not leave Texas to
take un this new work, and it was at
a special meeting of the Board in
Washington, D. C., later on the resie-
nation of Prof. Abner was handed in
and the Rev. Dr. Klugh, a prominent
New Jersey divine, was elected Rdu-
cational Secretary.
Peonle in and about Nashville con-
nected with the national work, as well
as those interested in its advance-
ment, have waited with patience for
"some move towards the real estab.
lishment of the school. Nashville has
offered a wonderful opportunity, and
would no doubt co-operate in the se-
lection of a site, since the Nationa!
Convention decided by vote to locate
| the seminary in this city. Reports
eeming from the executive meeting in
| Chicago bear no news of an encour.
, aging nature concerning the educa-
_ tional secretary's work or his siiccess
. towards the establishment of a, school.
. A diligent inquiry reveals the fact
_ that the new secretary, although his
: headquarters were supposed to be lo-
| eated in Nashville, has not as yet
‘made a visit to the city since his
election. Nashville is now wanting
to know whether the seminary
| proposition has been abandoned
or whether any action will be taken at
+ the next National Baptist Convention.
- which will assure the opening of the
s school. When the Roger William:
\ University was formally onened, hope

the plans that were outlined are ne

' and selected the location nt Memphis
in 1996. A school located in this city

leaders of the state declare they wil

out that the authorities of the Hom

The question now is “What will the
Negro Baptists do in the case? Will
they continue to sleep on this offer, or
will they put the present. secretary of
the educational board and his board
to work or elect a new man that will
open the schcol?” These are the
three questions desired to be answered
by the Negro Baptists according to
the gentleman's interview.

LAST SUNDAY AT MT. OLIVE.
Last Sunday was an Important day
at Mt. Olive Baptist Church. It was
the day set apart for going into the
remodeled auditorium, but this is not
all that has been done to Nashville's
largest house of worship. The base-
ment where the Sunday-school is held
has been refreshed with paintings and
decorations, the two entrances have
both been repaired, wainscoting added
and a cement floor put in with large
transoms over each door making the
Sunday-school room much lighter.
The usual quarterly rally was held
Sunday morning and as was expected
the Sunday-school increased its finan-
ces by a collection of $15.05. There
was a lively contest between the
classes, but class No. 16 succeeded in
holding the crown for another three
months. At 11:00 o'clock an unusu:
ally large audience was present. The
choir rendered special music for the
oceasion. Dr. Clark was sick, hence
Dr. R. H. Boyd occupied the pulpit
At 3 o'clock Dr. W. S. Billington spoke
ebly ‘and in the evening the pastor
Dr. C. H. Clark, preached. The entire
day was one of worship and praise
Quite a sum of money was realize¢
and on Monday morning the indebted
ness of Mt. Olive Baptist church wat
lifted, so this makes two churches it
Nachville out of debt. The effort:
made were reported to have been :
sucess. The church has on a new ap
pearance, the auditorium is especial
ly attractive, a soft, pleasing color
_ with neat decorations is noted on th
walls with new carpets to decorat
the floors. It was given out Sunda
that new pulpit furniture would a1
_ rive within the next ten days to ad
to the already expensive improv
. ments.
WILL SELL NEGRO DOLLS.
A local firm has arranged to offer
the parents of Nashville for their chil-
dren, Negro dolls, which are the near-
ert imitations manufactured at pres-
ent of the Negro. A Globe reporter
had the pleasure of sceing eight of
these dolls that had just reached the
city last week. They are in four
sizes and are now in the hands of
dressmakers being ‘neatly dressed.
and will be placed on exhibition at
so that orders may be taken in
Hime te get thei for ihe — oii
days, The Globe has secured per-
mission to haye four on exhibition at.
its office at 447 Fourth avenue, North,
and it is stated that the Baptist Pub-
lishing Board will have the second ¢x-
hibit at its offices, 523 Second avenue,
North, corner Locust street.
The colored doll idea has been
growing in Nashville for some time.
and there are sores of families who
want their little girl to have a doll,
but they want them to have some-
thing as near the Negro baby as can
be manufactured. ‘They have seem-
ingly decided to teach their children
that there js some pride, some merit,
some worth and something to be ad-
mired in a dark skin,
The local firm that has succeeded
in bringing these colored dolls to Nas-
ville, has done so after an enormous
‘xpenge and a continued effort, cov-
ering a period of more than twelve
months, trying to locate the factory
where the dolls were made. There
are but few of these dolls in the city.
About five reached Nashville last
Christmas, and this year the oppor-
tunity for several hundred is now
open. :
The Woman's Exchange, in charge
of Mrs. Gray, of Hamilton street, may
also secure an exhibit of these dolls.
Whether the eight now in the city
will be divided in jorder to accom-
modate the Woman® Exchange is a
matter yet to be decided upon. It
may be that four or six more will be
hastily ordered to accommodate the
various places that desire exhibits.
Orders will be taken beginning next
week, as*it takes about three months
to import them. ‘The Negroes of
Nashville have already shown that
they are willing to support and en:
courage such a plan as will give in-
spiration and happiness to their chil:
dren,” It will possibly surprise the
aumerons readers of the Globe te
know that there is not a factory in
the United States which has as ye'
attempted to manufacture a doll tha
they claim will imitate the respecta
ble, cultured Negro child. Burope is
the nearest possible place where they
| can be obtained. ‘The local firm that
- will handle them, from now on, has
already arranged with a foreign man

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 17, 1908
JOE GANS TO TRY IT AGAIN.
The next lightweight championship battle will be held on Labor Day, when Battling Nelson will give Joe Gans a chance to regain the laurels he lost when Nelson beat him at Colma on July 4.
Bat promised Gans another battle right after their last contest, and as soon as a suitable purse was offered he lost no time in keeping his word. Tex Rickard offered $30,000 for the match to be held at Ely, Nev., on Sept. 7, and this time there was no haggling over the details as in the first fight he arranged between the two boxers at Goldfield two years ago.
Nelson is so confident that he can beat Gans again that his only conditions were for 133 pounds stripped at the ringside and that the referee be forbidden to break the fighters apart, for the rest the rules that govern the Comla fight with suit. At first the Dane wanted to get $25,000 for his part of the purse, win, lose or draw, as he figured that Joe would be willing to fight for almost nothing, but he was persuaded to deal more generously with his oponent by Willis Britt, his manager, hence the ease and rapidity with which the match was consum-
Both the principals and Rickard will have to post large forfeits. Rickards must put up $10,000 as a guarantee inside of ten days and $20,000 more by August 7. Gans and Nelson will post $1,000 each by the middle of this month and $5,000 more when Rickard comes up with the whole of the purse.
As far as the fighters themselves are concerned, they believe the coming match will be epocal concerning their respective abilities. Nelson figures he will defeat Gans even more decisively than he did in their last match and that he will put him out of the game for good, at least as far as the first raters among the lightweights are concerned. And besides this there is the big purse which he will get for the complete elimination of the former champion.
Gans, on the other hand, believes that he can defeat Nelson if he is in the right physical condition. He says that he held the Dane too cheaply because of the latter's poor showing against Unholz, whom the Negro put away in eleven rounds. He did not train as he should for he expected to fight no longer than ten rounds at the outset. He thought the condition that was good enough in which to beat the Boer would be good enough in which to trim the Dane. He says he will take no chances a their next meeting, but will be in the best possible shape for the encounter.
FORMER NASHVILLE MAN UP.
HOLDING DIGNITY OF
HIS OFFICE.
Information has been received in this city that Capt. George T. Robinson has a great reputation in Boynton, Okla., where he is one of the three justices of the peace of that town. The other two magistrates in the township are white, but Capt. Robinson has more business in his court than both together. The inhabitants are blacks, whites and Indians, and his clientele is composed of the three.
Those who knew Capt. Robinson while in Nashville were aware that he would brook no insults graciously offered on account of his color. In Oklahoma he is teaching the citizens, no matter what their color, that his court is entitled to and must be respected. Last week the doughty captain, whose fighting qualities are well remembered by all Nashvillians who were readers of his newspaper, "The Citizen," when it was published in this city, debarred the city attorney from practicing in his court and punished another man—the one colored and the other white—for contempt of court.
This summary treatment brought opposition from the men and their friends, but when a petition was started against Capt. Robinson not a responsible person would sign it.
Capt. Robinson lived for a number of years in Nashville and was most actively engaged during his whole stay in the newspaper, legal and religious work. He was appointed from this city a commissioned officer in the United States Volunteer Infantry during the Spanish-American War and served with his regiment until it was mustered out of the service.
WILL CELEBRATE EMANCIPA TION.
A new day for the celebration of the Emancipation Proclamation so far as Nashville is concerned, has been agreed upon. That is, it is simply an advanced step towards celebrating a day in which the Negroes of Tennesseeee really received their emancipation. Heretofore it has been observed on January 1, but the celebration never conformed with the ideas of the great masses of Nashville in commemorating the joy in the gift of liberty that was really received by the people. Hence the move now made will be to celebrate August 8.
This movement is being heartily supported by sister towns like Clarksville, Shelbyville, Franklin, Murfreesboro, and, in fact, every city in the state with possibly the exception of Memphis. Nashville purposes to issue a general invitation and invite the neighboring towns to come here on Saturday, August 8, and join in one grand emancipation celebration. A stupendous occasion is promised.
In connection with the celebration will come the real dedication of Greenwood Park. The people of Nashville will be given a treat about as follows: Abraham Lincoln Post Grand Army of the Republic, the two uniform ranks of K. of P., Company G, unattached, the Knight Templars, and, in fact, every court and military organization in the city has consented to participate. Every business house in the city is being asked to prepare a special float. The ladies will be invited to decorate the floats, and the citizens of Nashville in general are invited to join in making a success of the coming celebration. It is agreed that the procession will form in Sulphur Springs bottom and march through Summer street to South Nashville and from thence to the park.
At the park there will be a magnificent flower parade. A competitive drill between the uniform companies and other secret organizations, as well as from Company G. Prominent speakers will be heard in the afternoon, and a sham battle is to be pulled off in the evening. This program will be interspersed with baseball and other amusements during the afternoon. On the whoie, Saturday, August 8, promises to be a gala day in Nashville. It will remind the Texas Colony in Tennessee of June 19 as celebrated in Arkansas and Texas. On this day all the Afro-American population in the cities, town, villages and, in fact everywhere, enjoy a real day of pleasure with a keen sense of thanksgiving.
MANY LANGUAGES OF MEXICO
(From the Mexican Herald.)
During the fiestas of Christmas or the week of All Souls and All Saints, when the Indians swarm down from the mountains with their holiday wares for sale, visitors in the city of Mexico may notice the strange language that the venders use in addressing each other. Even when they turn to serve the purchaser their Spanish is neither Castillian nor Mexican, but is frequently broken by peculiar syllables and accents.
This is merely an illustration of the fact that the Indian languages of Mexico have not been entirely submerged by the conquering Spanish, and in some of the most remote districts of the republic various and distinct languages handed down from the pre-Columbian era are still spoken in their pristine purity by many tribe members.
ENTERTAINS NASHVILLIANS
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Brown, of 722 Barr street, Cincinnati, entertained at whist in honor of their guests, Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Nixon, of Nashville on Tuesday night. Mrs. Brown and her guests visited the Zoo and all places of interest while in the city.
NOTICE
You may wonder why we are so early in greeting you with this great display of photographs. The reason is a two-fold one, the first of which is that we may not be forgotten, and that you may remember us to your friends. We take the pleasure of inviting you to visit our studio before going elsewhere for your photographs. Should our work meet your approval, we are sure the benefit will be decidedly mutual.
Beginning Monday, July 20, and ending August 1, we are going to offer to the public an opportunity that may never come to you again in life. You may wonder why we are doing this, but that is easily explained. On August 1, the Rembrandt Studio will move into its own building, 317 Eighth Avenue, North, which, when completed, will be second to none in the South. We have just received the latest novelties in photographs from New York, which we will offer at a great sacrifice. Our $5.00 per dozen cabinet photos will be sold for $3.00; our $4.00 lot will be sold for $2.50, and our $3.00 lot for $2.25. No orders taken for less than one dozen. Don't forget the dates. Come early to avoid the rush. Our place will be closed from the 14th to the 18th taking stock.
