THE NASHVILLE GLOBE.
Vol. III
Convention Will Be Held in Historic Galesburg, Ill.
REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE ENTIRE FIELD EXPECTED—WORK COVERS EIGHT NATIONS—SIXTY EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS UNDER ITS CARE—FISK ONE OF THAT NUMBER—NASHVILLE TO PLAY IMPORTANT PART.
The American Missionary Association will hold its sixty-second anniversary at Galesburg, III., October 20-22. Galesburg is a historical spot and will be remembered as the famous oratorical debating ground between President Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglass when they were both candidates for the presidency. This religious gathering that is holding its session in that city will no doubt receive inspiration from this fact. There are members of this organization who were old enough to be in active public life at that time. Some of the men had even begun to work among the Negroes. Representatives will be there from its entire field, as the association has work both educational and religious among eight nationalities. Nashville is usually represented at these annual meetings. The personal of the Nashville representatives will be the Fisk Quartette, composed of Messrs. Jno. Work, Ryder, Myers and King, Miss Yeoman, Mrs. Altheia Brown Williston, the returned missionary from Africa, who graduated from Fisk and received her appointment while here. The latter is reckoned from this place, with Dr. Geo. W. Moore, who left Wednesday as he had to take in other points before going to the convention. The largest part of the American Missionary work in the South has been directed towards the Negro. It is reported to be operating more than sixty educational institutions, some of the larger ones being in the South—notable among them are Fisk University, of this city; Talladega College, Talledega, Ala., and Atlanta University, Atlanta, Ga. The deliberations of the meeting will be watched in Nashville as it is expected that their body will pay some attention to the work at Fisk. Consequently Nashville is deeply interested.
HOWARD HAS STAR PLAYERS
Mr. Clarence Eugene Allen, who was the star of the best football team Roger Williams ever had who was the mainstay of the famous squad sent to this city two years ago by the Atlanta Baptist College, to contest for the football championship, is now a student of the Dental Department of Howard University, Washington, D. C. Mr. Allen has been practicing with the Howard University football team and will doubtless be in their first game, which will be played against the High School team, of Annapolis, Md., on October 17.
Another great football player who is attending Howard this year is Terry, the former star of the great Meharry teams. Up unto the first of this week Mr. Terry had not appeared for practice, and it is not known, definitely, whether he will be on the team. With two such stars as Terry and Allen, Howard would present an impregnable wall for most of the teams to butt up against
The schedule of Howard has not been arranged for this season. It is thought, though, that games will be played with Shaw University, of Raleigh, N. C.; Atlanta Baptist College, Meharry, Fisk, and Union University of Richmond, Va. The prospects of the team seem very bright.
AN IMPORTANT MEETING OF THE DAY HOME CLUB.
After a vacation for members, Matron and children of the Day Home, it now becomes necessary to hold a meeting to formulate plans for the coming year. It is earnestly requested that all members shall meet on Wednesday, Oct. 21, at 2 o'clock p. m. at the residence of the President, 514 Capitol Square.

MORE ABOUT NEGRO DOLLS.
A Sentiment Crystallizing Throughout the Country that in Itself Means Negro Dolls for Negro Children.
The citizens of the United States that have been known as the colored people, the Negro, the Afro-American, and many other titles have never before confronted a graver proposition than is before them at present. This is to be judged by the condition of affairs in all sections of the United States, and the indications point clearly to the fact that it has reached out into the insular possessions, and yet there was never a more opportune time for setting a precedent that would destroy any effort put forth to show that these people were not race-loving. Particular reference must be made to, one opportunity—it is the Negro' doll that is placed upon the market for Negro children.
A gentleman living in one of the large cities commenting upon the Negro doll, under date of October 8, said: "From what you say it would appear that you have been most fortunate in setting out at the right psychological point. You know that success depends not only upon doing the right thing in the right way, but also upon doing it at the right time—when, consciously or unconscious, people are ready for it. I look forward to a time when some great man of our race will realize that all races have attained greatness through the development of their individuality—that which was distinctively theirs. Real greatness on our part will come when the touch of our brain and hand stamps our individuality upon our work. As in the case of the dolls, everything that we have had to do with has been white, and our personality and individuality have been submerged in his. Some great race student, with a strong faculty for idealization, will see the natural tendencies of our race, and, like a biologist, from a fragment construct the whole. Then from this ideal figure he will draw inspiration to lead us on to our highest endeavors. He will not try to make a white man, but such a black man as will lose nothing by being placed in competition with a white man. It is possible for a horse to be so superior in every point, and still be black, that mere whiteness would add nothing to its beauty, goodness, or value. You understand me? It is the outworking of race subconscious individualism that makes the white man inventive, progressive, dominant—what he is to-day."
ENNESSEE PYTHIANS HAVE
CANDIDATE FOR A SU-
PREME OFFICE
At the session of the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias, recently held in Clarksville, a resolution was passed by the body endorsing Grand Chancellor, Dr. J. P. Crawford, for the position of Supreme Keeper of Records and Seal. The genial Dr. Crawford is extremely popular with the Pythians of the state and the resolution went through like a cyclone crossing the prairies of the Western states.
The office of Supreme Keeper of Record and Seal is one of the most important under the control of the Supreme body. The incumbent is Mr. C. K. Robinson, of St. Louis, who has held the position for a number of years. The office requires the services of several persons to attend its clerical affairs and being the official source from which all the supplies of the Order are obtained, will add to the business standing of the colored people in whatever community it may be located. Dr. Crawford is undoubtedly one of the most progressive lodge men in the country. He believes in pushing the Order, of which he is the official head, to the front. Nor does he believe in hiding, as it were, the good, grand work the lodges are doing, under a bushel measure. Elected Grand Chancellor in 1899, at the organization of the Grand Lodge, when the jurisdiction contained less than a dozen lodges, with a total membership of perhaps less than five hundred, Dr. Crawford has, by his magnificent leadership, brought the membership to upward of 6,000 and the Order has in its treasuries upwards of $25,000 to meet its liabilities.
The friends of Dr. Crawford think that the record of Tennessee Pythianism stands unparalleled in the Supreme Jurisdiction and are determined, if their efforts can bring about the result, to see that such a capable man shall go up higher. Nashville, irrespective of membership in fraternal organizations, hopes to see the office come to this city.
Miss Martilla Harris, of 1918 West End avenue, has been somewhat indisposed for the last week, and is convalescing.
N. B. P. BOARD HOLDS MEETING
Changes Made in Personnel of Management.
THREE NEW MEMBERS FROM TENNESSEE.
DR. C. H. CLARK OPENED THE MEETING—NUMBER OF PROMINENT DIVINES PRESENT—VOLUME OF BUSINESS BEFORE THE BOARD OFFICERS ELECTED FOR ENSUING YEAR—NEW DE-DEPARTMENT TO BE LOCATED IN THIS CITY.
Quite an interesting as well as important meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board was held at its offices, located at the corner of Second avenue, North, and Locust street Tuesday. The meeting was called by Dr. C. H. Clark, the chairman. It was the annual meeting, therefore there was considerable business before the board, as it has just entered into its thirteenth fiscal year. There was noticeable a change in the members of the board. There were three new members from the State of Tennessee—Rev. C. A. Bell, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Chattanooga; Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor of the Fifth Ward Baptist Church, Clarksville, and Rev. T. J. Townsend, pastor of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, Nashville, were present at roll call, together with the following old members: J. P. Robinson, D. D.; R. B. Porter and P. A. Knowles, Little Rock; C. H. Clark, R. H. Boyd, G. B. Taylor and H. A. Boyd, Nashville. Such a volume of business was before the Board that it consumed the better part of the morning. The principal actions of the Board as given out was the election of officers for the ensuing year, which was as follows: Chairman, C. H. Clark, Nashville; Secretary and Treasurer, R. H. Boyd, San Antonio, Tex.; Assistant Secretary, H. A. Boyd; Field Secretary, Wm. Beckham, Austin, Tex.; Editorial Secretary, W. S. Ellington, Nashville. Another matter of interest given out was the appointment of three important committees for the ensuing year. First, was a Committee on Missions, consisting of C. H. Clark, G. B. Taylor and J. P. Robinson; Committee on Sunday-School Work, T. J. Townsend, H. A. Boyd and P. A. Knowles; Committee on Books and Printing, C. A. Bell, R. B. Porter and T. J. Goodall. There was nothing further to be gained for publication, as Secretary Boyd stated that the other matter pertained strictly to the Board. There was some attention given to the new department which is to be located in Nashville, the Teacher-Training-Service, with headquarters and office at the Publishing House.
H. T. G. M. CLUB
Miss Esther J. Pinkard entertained the young ladies of the club Saturday, October 10th, complimentary to two of the fall brides. Miss Pinkard possesses so much ingenuity and entertains in such a charming manner that the young ladies are all expectancy when it is her time to entertain the Club. On this occasion many interesting games were introduced. One "A Foundation Drawing" was the prize contest. The original pictures were of rare beauty and made this a closely drawn contest. The picture of a full blown rose was proclaimed the prize picture; the favor was an Ebony framed picture of a sea scene. The second favor was for the most comical picture and was won by Miss Bessie Martin. Perhaps the most enjoyable game of the evening was the last. Green heart-shaped cards with the names of one of the young ladies on each were suspended from the chandelier. A cord was tied to each of these cards, by following which each young lady found her company for supper. Much surprise and laughter reigned when they found paper gents with familiar faces bearing jolly rhymes under their arms. A delightful two-course menu was then served. The special guests were Misses Willie Nichols, Mary Kane Hill, Sophia Jackson, Callie Beasley and Anita Scott.
The President gave notice of a call meeting for Tuesday. Oct. 13, at the home of Miss Minnie M. Hunter.
REWARD FOR NIGHT RIDERS.
Kentucky Governor Aroused Over Outrages Committed at Hickman.
Frankfort, Ky., October 13.—In offering $500 reward for the apprehension and conviction of the gang of Night Riders who attacked a Negro named Walker in his home in Hickman County last week and slew him, his wife and two children, Gov. Willson yesterday made an extreme appeal to the people of the state to "arise in their night" and put down such lawlessness. The Governor says:
"If two or three men had gone to this poor cabin and murdered the family the crime would have shocked humanity with its revelation of incredible wickedness, brutality and dastardly cowardice. That a larger number, some fifty men, joined in such a crime, multiplies the cowardiness and wickedness fifty fold and makes every member of the band guilty of murder in the first degree, the basest, wickedest and most cowardly, inhuman murder conceivable in mortal mind.
"This crime and the stain on Kentucky of the murder of four helpless prisoners at Russelville, both by bands of Night Riders, is an outgrowth and the logical result of the toleration of Night Rider crises in the large districts of the state, only one remove from civil war, and the very safety of our institutions and what we have of civilization is involved and the only salvation for the name, honor and character of Kentucky is for the whole people to rise up in their might to save the liberty, uphold the law, mercilessly, put down murder, arson, intimidation and proscription wherever they dare show themselves."
The Governor does not appeal to the people, but calls upon them to assemble in their respective neighborhoods in the counties "to organize and take stern, prompt and effective measures to punish every cowardly scoundrel who rides the roads to threaten his neighbors," to put an immediate end to lynching, murder and arson, and calls on the local authorities in each county to be earnest and vigilant, offers them the whole power of the state, or as much as each shall need, for the instant arrest and punishment of all guilty of these crimes, and do everything possible to clear the name and honor of Kentucky of the shame and disgrace of such crimes.
PROF. and Mrs. W. G. HYNES. Prof. and Mrs. W. G. Hynes have spent four successful weeks in the blue grass region. Between the Committee of the Republican State Headquarters and Prof. Hynes there has been a communication. It is requested that Prof. Hynes return to the city and make a public demonstration of the presidential returns. Should this be a definite decision, Prof. and Mrs. Hynes will reach the city the latter part of the month.

MRS. LAZINKA DICKSON RETURNS.
Mrs. Lazinka Dickson, of Jersey City, N. J., returns to the city, after an absence of seven years, to visit relatives and friends. She arrived Sunday night. Mrs. Dickson, formerly a Miss Harwell, is well known here, where she was reared and educated. She went to New Jersey years ago, where she was married to Mr. J. L. Dickson, and, where she now resides. She is stopping with her grandmother and aunt, Mrs. Maria Johnson and Mrs. Genie B. Williams, at their home, 1004 McLemore street. Mrs. Dickson will also visit Columbia, Tenn., her native town, where she has relatives and friends. Her relatives and friends in both cities heartily welcome her return and will extend to her every hospitality.
Mr. C. H. Miller, ex-Grand Lecturer of the K. of P., of South Pittsburg, Tenn., passed through the city this week en route to his home.
WILL HAVE EVERY MODERN CONVENIENCE — AMPLE SEATING CAPACITY—LADIES' LOUNGING ROOM AND GENTS' SMOKING ROOM—GOOD COMPANIES WILL BE BILLED—BRIGHT FUTURE —MONUMENT TO THE NEGRO RACE.
On or about January 10, 1909, the colored Pythians of the State of Louisiana will throw open the doors of a first-class modern theatre to the colored population of the South, and extend to them a privilege that has never been given to them before. As claimed, the theatre will be "first-class and modern."
The house will be absolutely fireproof. The floors of the auditorium and balcony will be of concrete, and the entire building will be constructed with iron, steel, stone, terra-cotta and brick. The theatre will be located in the six-story Pythian Temple, so it is easy to see why the term "fireproof" is used, says the National Bureau.
On the lower or orchestra floor there will be a seating capacity of 450; this floor will be fitted with a ladies' lounging room and gentleman's smoking-room, both to be up to the standard and to meet every convenience of the patron.
On the balcony floor there will be a seating capacity of 260, and it will be fitted with a ladies' lounging-room and gentleman's smoking-room, the same as the lower floor, and to be handsomely fitted for the comfort of the patron. Of course the gallery is there, and will have a seating capacity of 150. Four boxes—to be beautifully fitted up and to meet every comfort of the patron—will provide seating space for 32 persons, making a total seating capacity of 892.
The stage measurements are as follows: 51 feet 6 inches in width by 26 feet 6 inches in depth; proscenium arch, 25 feet wide by 20 feet 6 inches high. These dimensions will provide ample room for the "settings" and "props" of the average company. The "trouper" will be provided with eight fully-equipped dressing-rooms, and it shall be the aim of the management not to allow this portion of the house to go lacking, because it is believed that the "Thespian" should be given all the conveniences and comforts within reason. It is desired that the performer shall feel that he can come South and receive proper treatment, and know that New Orleans has provided a playhouse which meets every comfort for the patron and player.
New Orleans and Lousiana Pythians feel proud of having established something that has never been attempted before by the race; then, again, they feel proud of this house, as it offers to its patrons greater comfort than some of the other theatres in this city offer to their white patrons. And all feel proud of the fact that, for its size, it will not be surpassed by any playhouse in the country, as neither time nor money will be spared toward making it a monument to the Negro race.
This theatre extends to the colored people of the South a privilege that has never been extended to them before—that is, applying to the box office and selecting any seat in the house, and the privilege of being entertained by a good company, in a house meeting every requirement of comfort, and grand in all its appointments. And yet they wonder how the Negro can do it!
In another place is an advertisement that will greatly interest managers.
BOY TAKES TUMBLE FROM
TRESTLE.
Jolly Rooney, a 11-year-old boy, is now at the City Hospital in a badly injured condition as the result of a fall this week from the L. & N. trestle on McLemore street. Rooney was hurried to the City Hospital in the patrol wagon after the accident, where his injuries, which are pronounced serious, were given attention. He was resting easy the latter part of the week.

While attempting to board a street
car,last Saturday night with his wife,
Mr. Jack Vaughn recetved a very ugly
knife wound on the head. As Mrs.
Vaughn was entering the car she came
in conflict with the passengers leav-
ing the car, ‘This so angered the con-
ductor, L. N. Smotherman, that he as-
saulted Mr. Vaughn, with results as
stated above.
Both of the men in the case were ar-
rested. The evidence at the trial be-

that Smotherman was the aggressor
and that Vaughn merely defended
‘himself from the attack. Judge Baker
fined the conductor $10, and the case

Mrs. Kitty C. Howse recently read the following essay at Stone's River Chapel Sunday-school:
"HOME DUTIES."
Duty embraces man's whole existence. It begins in the home. There is a duty which children owe to their parents on the one hand, and the duty which parents owe their children on the other. There should be no stiffness of family etiquette, no sternness of famil discipline around the fireside like that which prevailed in olden times: as the day for that has passed, and now is the time for thorough civility and courtesy among the members of every home. The day for careful propriety of dress and address will never pass away. It is here that the truest and most faultless social life is to be lived; it is here that such a life is to be learned. A home in which true courtesy and politeness reigns is a home from which polite men and women go forth, and they go out directly from no other. It should be remembered that children should be trained to behave at home as you would have them behave abroad. It is the home life which they act out when away. If this is rude, gruff and lacking in civility they will be lacking in all that constitutes true refinement and thus most painfully reflect on the home training when in the presence of strangers.
In the actions of children strangers can read a history of home life. It tells of duty undone, of turmoil and strife, of freftful men and women, or it speaks of a home of love and peace, where patience sits enthroned in the hearts of all its members and each is mindful of his or her duty towards the other. The domestic fireside is a seminary of infinite importance. First, because it is universal; second, the because of the education it bestows;
woven with the woof of childhood, it gives color to the whole texture of life. Early impressions are not easily erased. Above all teach children what life is. It is not simply breathing and moving. Life is a battle and all thoughtful people see it so. A battle between good and evil from childhood. Teach them that they lead two lives—the life within and the life without; and that the inside must be pure in the sight of God, as well as the outside in the sight of man."

A CAMPAIGN CANARD.
The report comes to us that the Hon. Lee Brock the high priest of lily-whiteism in Tennessee, made a bitter attack last Saturday upon The Globe, in particular, and the other colored newspapers in general for not supporting Mr. G. N. Tillman for Governor. Mr. Brock, the report says, charged that The Globe, the other four newspapers published by colored men in this city, most if not all the professional men and a majority of the preachers of this city have been "bought out by the democrats."
It is scarcely necessary for us to denounce Mr. Brock's accusations as a campaign canard put in circulation to draw back the weak-kneed and venal into line with the "I won't hear you one minute" machine. Anyone who has observed the course of this newspaper in its warfare on lily-whiteism and its devotees, trickery and chicanery, will be convinced of the utter untruthfulness of the charges.
Mr. Lee Brock, perennial office-holder, is responsible more so than any other man for the divided condition of the republicans of this part of the state. It was this honorable gentleman who arranged the snap, committee-appointed County Conventions that were to elect him as a delegate to the National Convention. It was this same Mr. Brock, who, realizing that the action of his snap conventions were irregular in that they had elected delegates to a convention that had never been called, had the "I won't hear you one minute" state executive committee to whitewash his work and declare it regular. It was this same Mr. Brock, who, as acting head of the state committee two years ago, dictated the policy that, in order to get the votes of the disaffected democrats, no effort should be made to get the Negroes to vote for H. Clay Evans.
Personally, though, we would not know Mr. Brock from "Adam's off ox," his record in the speeches he has made would show that he is domineering; that he is used to bossing around the cheap politicians who come to him for favors. His association with these cheap politicians, these pimps, who want to be janitors of some buildings; and with these political vampires—some of them are high up in federal offices—who will sell their opinions for "pie," makes Mr. Brock think that when a man changes in his political affairs, he got his price. Perhaps that is true of the federal office-holder brigade, but with those whom Mr. Brock so maliciously maligned in his speech last Saturday, it is different. These better element Negroes and the

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1908
papers of the city are supporting Patterson as a matter of principle. They prefer the simon pure lily-whiteism of a just democrat to the lily-whiteism of a tricky republican.
A BRAVE SHERIFF.
Sheriff Nichols, of Spartanburg, South Carolina, has the proper "stuff" in his makeup. His oath of office means something to him. He believes in the supremacy of the law and poured hot lead into the mob that assaulted the jail, which he was defending, last Saturday evening. Four of the mob were injured in the clash and then, the city quieted down. Sheriff Nichols' brave defense shows what we have always claimed that where the officers are unwilling there is seldom a lynching.
Every good citizen is anxious that the rascals who commit heinous crimes should be punished and that this punishment be enforced under the law. The meanest, the vilest creature in existence, if he be charged with crime, is entitled to a fair trial by jury and he should have it. If the mob, composed as the Spartanburg case shows by its list of injured, of boys from 14 to 23 years of age, is allowed to set aside the law and take unto itself the rights of prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner, we will soon drift into anarchy. Sheriff Nichols has applied the proper remedy to check mobs.
AN INSULT.
Candidate G. N. Tillman, in his Chattanooga speech, addressed himself to the colored section of his audience and paid them in the coin they doubtless deserved for being present. A local paper, in speaking of Candidate Tillman's appeal to the Negro voters, gives the following account:
"Mr Tillman said the governor was of late appealing to the Negroes for support because of his use of the pardoning power in behalf of consumptive and maimed Negroes he found in the mines at Brushy. He said the governor was asking and expecting the support of the Negroes, and 'he will probably get quite a number of them,' he continued. 'A great many Negroes would far rather be separated from their wives any time than from their bottles.'"
A nice compliment to his Negro auditors! "A great many Negroes would far rather be separated from their wives any time than from their bottles!" Mr. Tillman in his effort to capture the disaffected democratic voters cares not what in the thunder becomes of the faithful black voters who have supported the republican party forty odd years. If he cared for the Negro vote, if he wanted the Negro vote, he would not so willingly and gratuitously offer such an insult to the race as his reference to the Negro and the bottle in his Chattanooga speech.
Whether Governor Patterson is asking or expecting the Negroes of Tennessee to vote for him we do not know. But we do know that there will be a large number of Negroes in the state who will vote for the incumbent. A majority of these Negroes, too, pay their own poll tax and, like candidate Tillman, if they have their "bottle," keep it at home.
Candidate Tillman devotes a considerable portion of his speech to a criticism of Gov. Patterson for granting pardons to Negroes. Another part he devotes to extravagancies and in this he complains of the expenditure of money in employing Negroes as porters at the Capitol. Yet, with all of his slurs at our people and his well known antipathy to the race, he expects the colored brother to go to the polls and vote for him because "the republican party freed you." Some of the former Southern slaves and some of the present slaves to the party may vote for him but the majority of the Negroes, the thinking members of the race, who are not influenced by buncombe, will either vote for Patterson or remain away from the polls.
Gov. Willson, of Kentucky, speaks out boldly against the human hyenas, who murdered a man and his entire family at Hickman, Ky. Likewise, the Courier-Journal, of Louisville, publishes an editorial that pictures the murderers as worse than the most vage Indians, but it will all end in death. There is scarcely a judge in the
country but that will denounce lynching from the bench, still the known members of mobs are never convicted. These scathing denunciations of mobs may help to build up a healthy sentiment that will, in times, put a stop to lynching, but such bestiality as that of this Kentucky mob, makes one long for an immediate cure.
If proof were needed to show that the "I wont hear you one minute" republicans are maligning our preachers and representative men when the accusation is made that they have sold out, one would only have to consult these men on their national political views. Almost every prominent Negro who is supporting Patterson for Governor will vote for Taft and Sherman. Like the Globe, they consider a vote for Taft a bitter pill yet we and they prefer to take the medicine than vote for Bryan.
"I won't hear you one minute," "A great many Negroes would far rather be separated from their wives any time than from their bottles." These are expressions from the Hon. H. Clay Evans and the Hon. G. N. Tillman. The remarks of the Hon. Lee Brock concerning The Globe, will not bear publication in these columns.
Smiling "Bill" Taft was in the city early this morning. While here he was asleep. It is a pity that he did not wake up long enough to speak out on the Brownsville Affair. If he would but express his views, it would be so much easier to vote for or against him.
Mr. Bryan wants to guarantee the bank deposits. Why not first put in force the guarantee of life and liberty now almost a dead letter, made so by mobs and night riders?
Republicans of Davidson County had better keep their eyes open or the County Committee will appoint the delegates to conventions of 1912, after the election.
Judge Parker was in the city arousing the "unterrified" Wednesday night. The judge is just recovering from the landslide of four years ago.
As we are going to press, it comes to us authoritatively that the statement attributed to Mr. Lee Brock that The Globe and a large number of the colored people had sold out to the democrats lacks foundation. We say this in justice to Mr. Brock.-Ed.
YOUNG MARRIED COUPLE ENTERTAIN.
Mr. and Mrs. Zack McCrory, a recently married couple, of 930 Shankland street, entertained a few of their friends at dinner last Sunday. The host and hostess, happy in newly wedded bliss, it would seem, wished that joy be unconfined. At least their superb arrangements for the occasion would indicate such.
The dinner, which comprised all the choice viands of the season, was served in five courses, exclusive of the ices and liquid refreshments. Among those to enjoy the first social function of Mr. and Mrs. McCrory were Albert Everett, George Stevenson, Joe Chapman, Edward Hale, S. Hughes, Joseph Bitticks, Howard Ricks, Henry McNewson, Gus Noel, Son Larkins, Mr. Crockett, Wm Bailey, Jack Wade and Frank Battle.
THE BARACAS.
The Baraca Sunday-school class of the First Baptist Church is a brilliant set of young men who are taught every Sabbath morning by their pastor, Rev. W. S. Ellington. Any young man who wishes to join this class may see the pastor during the week or meet the cass Sunday morning in the Sunday-school department of the church.
The Baracas will elect their permanent officers Sunday morning, and all the members present will be enrolled as charter members.
"The Tempted Saviour" is the subject of the sermon that will be delivered by Rev. Ellington at the Sunday morning services.
RETURNS FROM CHICAGO.
Mrs Cora M. Alexander, of 409 Fourteenth avenue, North, who has been spending a lengthy visit in Chicago, has returned to the city. She was very much impressed by her trip having met numerous friends who formerly resided in this city. The last two weeks of her stay Mrs. Alexander was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. James Rice, former residents of Nashville.

BISHOP TYREE AT ST. JOHN A. M.
E. CHURCH SUNDAY MORN
ING, REV. CORPORA NOT
Next Sunday will be winding up day at St. John A. M. E. Church. On Wednesday morning Rev. Mr. Gordon will leave for Conference, which will be held at Shelbyville, Tenn. Bishop Evans Tyree will preach for Rev. Mr. Gordon at 11 o'clock and a great day is anticipated by the pastor and congregation. It will be Rev. Gordon's last Sunday as pastor of St. John, as it was plainly stated by Bishop Parks after the sermon Sunday night, that he would not be returned, so he is making every effort possible to carry a good dollar money report to his Conference. It is believed that the members will turn out in great numbers next Sunday morning and will be prepared to pay their conference-claims. Bishop Parks said to them Sunday night that the kind of pastor they had next year depended largely upon the report from the church to the conference. He explained to the congregation that he would not be able to secure a good man unless they sent a good report. Said he, "A successful preacher will not go to a church with a large membership from which he cannot get a good conference report, for his reputation is at stake." So it is left with the members as to whether they have a good pastor for the next conference-year. Taking past record as a guide one would be compelled to decide that the members of St. John A. M. E. Church will not let their record go down, nor will they surrender to the position of first to any other church in the state.

SUPPLEMENTAL REGISTRATION
OF VOTERS.
‘The three days supplemental reg-
istration of voters, wnich began Sat-
urday and ended Tuesday night shows
that a large number of citizens who
‘have not previously used their right
to the franchise or have moved their
place of residence since the last elec-
tion, intended to participate in the
general election on we third of No-
vember.
‘The three days also brought out
quite a number of the colored voters,
who have not registered before. The
Thirteenth Ward probably showed
one’ of the heaviest supplemental
registrations, with 108. Of this num:
ber there were only 13 Negroes. In
the Third Ward the majority of a
large number registered were Ne
groes. In this ward there were 102
registrations. Those in charge of the
books stated that they considered thi:
rather more than: usual. In the
Twentieth Ward, out of. the*98 regis
| trations, only 18 were Negroes, bul
this number was one more than ha¢
qualified during the general registra
tion period. In the Fifteenth ‘wari
thre weve 89 new white registra
tions and 25 colored. In the Tentt
there was a what was considere
a heavy registration, but very fev
colored, The Eleventh was consid
ered light with only 58, but it was es
| timated that’ fully one-third of thes:
| Were colored voters.
;_ It is altogether possible that thi
|is one ofthe heaviest supplementa
registrations there has been in th
city for some years.

FE, Church, which assembles here -on
the 21st inst.
The Rey. R. B. Ross of the M. F.
Church, preached his “farewell ser-
mon” last Sunday night to a crowded
house. He told some of the people of
“their own” after the manner of a vet-
eran. Rey. Ross has done remarkable
work here this year.
The two Baptist churches are both
without pastors. But the First Bap-
tist people are going forward in a
commendable way raising money for
the purpose of erecting a new house
of worship. From present indications
it seems as though they will succeed.
The grand rally last Sunday was a
success. Dr. J. A. Jones preached for
them at 8 o'clock to an appreciative
audience. The Turner Normal Col-
lege choir furnished the music for the
occasion.
Students are steadily pouring in to
Turner Normal. The most recent ad-
ditions this week are Misses Lena and

SPORT.
J. Lee.
J. Lee, the Negro jockey, who is riding in the East, continues to win races, not only does he land small purses, but goes after the large ones in the same manner. He is holding his own out East among all the country's best, and we hope he will continue the good work and win for himself a place beside Isaac, Murphy, Monk Overton, T. Williams, S. Purkins, J. Winkfield, D. Austin and many other famous Negro jockeys, who have won fame upon the American turf. The colored boys have always been good riders; and now that it is a paying business, we hope they will continue to forge their way to the front ranks.
The Outlook for Football.
As the season grows older the anxiety of the lovers of the gridiron sport become more anxious as to what article of the game will be dished out to them this year by the several teams in the city. From every quarter has come the usual annual wall about a shortage of material. No back field, no ends, no line men, no competent quarterback, and so they go it until you would imagine that the game this season would have to be played with only three men to a side and the chalk lines to do the coaching. But every one has learned to regard dope as being dope, and to expect a high class of sport whether the coaches have available material or not.
Some of the best teams in the South will be seen here this fall to meet Meharry and Fisk. Fisk has so far scheduled Knoxville and Atlanta Baptist College, and, of course, the Meharry game for Thanksgiving. Coach Giles is also contemplating a game with Tuskegee at Tuskegee. These games alone make up a fairly good schedule, with probably some lighter gams sandwitched in. On Saturday the scrubs will take on Pearl High School. This will be a lively game. The High School boys, fresh from their victory over the defeat of the Walden Scrubs last Saturday, will go in determined to win. Their victory Saturday came as a surprise to many, but it was nevertheless a clean cut victory.
Walden can always be depended upon to furnish a strong team, but, of course, to be in line on the dope, you must ring in the usual wail. True a large number of last year's team graduated, leaving many gaps to fill up, but when it is remembered that students enter Meharry every year who have finished from the best schools of the country and where athletics are conducted on a high plane, and where some of the best athletes in the country are developed, it will be seen that a coach of the Walden team has a decided advantage over those colleges that are not doing post-graduate work.
However the case may be, the people are anxious that clean sport on a high order be furnished, and they stand ready to pay for it at a reasonable price. And they feel confident that the authorities at the universities will see to it that this is done.

Joe Gans, the greatest lightweight fighter the world has ever known, has at last lost the honor place. He may not be all in, but we hardly think there is enough left of him to bring him back into his own. He may be good for a few more short battles of 6, 8 or 10 rounds, but the old man has played his last trump card and lost.
He was without doubt, the most scientific fighter of his day; and with all due respect to the many younger men at the game there are none that are the equal of him when in his prime. Age was the only thing that could down the great Gans. Even when put against a young man, he gave a good account of himself, and only surrendered when he had fought beyond human endurance and had gone down from physical exhaustion. The greatest factor he had to depend upon was his grit and with that the old gladiator entered the arena to face a younger man and his erstwhile vanquished foe. He was the last of a famous old school of men who, from time to time, have been before the public, and who are fast passing away.
He is a Negro and this emphasizes the fact that the great glory that has come to him has been deservedly won
The "Black Shadow," as he was often called, was a man who had fought his way up from the bottom to a place where he had to be reckoned with when it came to settle the championship. Laboring under great odds, he won his battle and made a name that will always live in the pugilistic world. The Negro has always been a factor in that branch of sport, and there have always been good men among them in every class. No sooner has one gone than another has appeared, and, like Banquo's ghost, they will not down. We have had our Peter Jackson, our Geo. Dixon, our Joe Walcott, our Joe Gans and many others, and we still have Sam Langford, Jack Johnson and young Peter Jackson, all of whom are first-class men only waiting for a chance to show that the Negro is in the game to stay.
There has never been any doubt
about the Negro's ability as a fighter. He only wants a chance and when given that he more than makes good. The color line is being drawn closer every year. It seems to be the understanding not to give the Negro a chance; but the sporting public that is the real supporter of the game demands good bouts and it is the one who will say whether Mr. Negro must step down and out; and if that is to be the case, we are thinking that he has a long lease of life as a fighter in the pugilistic arena. It is hoped that there will soon appear another Negro champion lightweight.
Football above all other sports is really a science and stands out as the most scientific sport now before the American public. True, baseball, tennis, golf and many others have their share of admirers, but when it comes to football the others pale into insignificance. No game to-day has as many different parts, as many plays, and as many different styles of play as football. It takes a man with more than the average amount of nerve to play the game. No matter how proficient he may be in other things, when that nerve, or, rather, grit, is not there he is turned away by the Coach and pronounced "not good enough."
Many a good man is turned away because he has not that element of nerve necessary to face the many difficult tasks put before him. You can always develop a player when he has the grit and endurance, but when that is lacking you cannot use the man, no matter what his other good points may be. Speed is also a factor in the new game. Now, take a man with speed and little weight, plenty of grit, and he is a harder foe than a heavy one. We have had an example of that right here in Nashville. Take a man of Alison's build; he was small, very light, weighing scarcely more than one hundred and fifty pounds, yet he was given a position over men much heavier than he, who seemed to be good men. But the Coach saw fit to give the position to the man with speed, grit and endurance. Take the case of Marquess of Fisk, and you have the same thing demonstrated—a small man, fast, grity and always dangerous, even at the last moment, apt to tear away and by a long run snatch victory out of defeat. Time and again this thing has been done and it only goes to show that the man with the endurance is the one to be desired and who is the most dangerous at all times.
Then there is experience which is also a great factor and without it you have no team work, for a new man is always nervous and especially so when against a strong team. Next comes the natural ability: one must have this and when you find it in a man, along with the other strong points, you have a star of the first magnitude. Of course, they are not found every day; but no city has been more fortunate than Nashville. She has seen some of the best football players ever developed, and whenever they leave these institutions and go to others they have no trouble making the team. It seems that they get the foundation work right, and the structure they build is always reliable and beautiful.
There are but few cases where men have left these schools and gone to others where they have not made good. You often find on a team several stars, but no team work; this goes to say that each man has a duty to perform in every play and when one of them falls to do his part the formation is spoiled and the play is lost. Each man is only a part of the machine and when any one of them fails, the machine has some lost motion and is not running smooth. But when you find eleven men, each doing his part at the right time and right place, then you have team work, and that team will always be a hard one to beat. Then you have that college spirit and that above all things is the most dangerous. Often a team goes on the field outweighed and really facing a better team, but they will have so much of that college spirit that they are always fighting hard and the opponent must always be on the alert for at any moment they may rise up and, amid the cheers of the loyal student body, take away the victory when it seemed that defeat was their lot.
The teams of Nashville have lost most of their old stars, but we are hoping that the coming season will find new men in the field to take the mantle and wear it with all the dignity of the men who have gone out to battle with the problem of life. The Globe wishes them success, and may they be as brilliant in their life's work as they have been upon the gridiron.

CONDOLENCE
The many relatives and friends of Mr. and Mrs. William Crutcher, of 1639 Patterson street, join with them to share a part of their grief and sorrow over the loss of their little son. William Edgar Crutcher, who was to that family a precious jewel, only living a short life of eighteen months. While we feel it is a hard task to give him up, yet we know it is heaven's gain, and on the day of the general resurrection we shall see him again.

DAVIDSON COUNTY INSTITUTE. The teachers Institute of Davidson County met last Saturday with Prof. W. H. Card, President, in the chair. The secretary being absent the minutes were omitted and the program taken up. The institute listened to quite an interesting paper read by Miss Thompson on the subject, "Primary Teaching." It was an excellent paper full of useful thought and proved to have been prepared with much care. Prof. W. C. Anderson, the Superintendent, favored the institute with remarks touching chiefly upon the Reading Course work. Upon his suggestion it was agreed to discuss only one of the two subjects belonging to primary and secondary work in our monthly institute; the other to be taken up during the State Institute later on. It was further decided that there shall be one and the same one in each meeting to teach this subject. Prof. Brown was appointed to teach grammar at the next meeting. His work will be the noun in its various usages in sentences.
The following were appointed executive committee of the institute: C. B. Buford, W. R. Davis, Miss Mamie Thompson, Mrs. Cora Field and Mrs. L. D. Bumbrey. Miss Georgia Jolly is appointed to teach primary reading and Mr. Buford secondary reading in the next meeting.
THE C. H. P. CLUB ENTERTAINED.
The C. H. P. Club was entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell, Thursday evening. There was a full attendance of members and plans for the winter were discussed. The guests aside from the club members, were Mr. and Mrs. William McClain, Mrs. J. H. Franklin. After the business session delightful refreshments were served. The Club will meet at Mrs. Turner's home next Thursday evening.
EISK NOTES.
The Athletic Association of Fisk held its second meeting last Tuesday night in Livingston Hall. The first game of football will be Saturday at 2:30 between Fisk's second team and Pearl High School. Prof. F. B. Wilson is the new professor of mechanical drawing at Fisk. He succeeded Prof. Brown, who has gone to Howard University. Mr. Perry A. Olden, who has been in Chicago for the summer, has returned and entered Fisk University. Fisk has several new instructors this year and things are moving on nicely. The new library of the University is being rushed toward completion. The subject "Character Building" was very successfully discussed in the Y. M. C. A. meeting last Sunday.
The remains of Mrs. Minor were brought to the city Sunday morning from Belleville, Ill. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. E. M. Seymour and Rev. Mr. Roberts. The interment occurred at Hampton, Tenn. The carnival this week has been a success so far, and a good attendance is promised for the remainder of the week, and every one is taking part in the festivities. Carnival parties are the order of the day. The shows are especially clean and attractive.
