THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. III BRILLIANT WED- DING GEREMONY Impressively Performed by Dr. C. H. Clark. MT. OLIVE CHURCH FILLED TO ITS UTMOST CAPACITY. RECEPTION TENDERED AT HOME OF DR. R. H. BOYD—THRONGS CAME TO BID THE HAPPY PAIR BON VOYAGE THROUGH LIFE SUPERB DECORATIONS THROUGHOUT THE HOUSE. Before a gathering that taxed to the utmost capacity the large auditorium of Mount Olive Baptist Church, the marriage of Miss Georgia A. Bradford and Rev. Henry Allen Boyd was solemnized by Dr. C. H. Clark, the pastor of the church, Tuesday evening at eight o'clock. Long before the hour set for the ceremony, the friends of the contracting parties began to enter the church and fully one hour prior to the time set for the wedding, every seat, excepting those reserved for relatives and intimate friends, was taken. When the organ began the strains of the wedding march, the aisles were packed with those who, unable to secure seats, good naturedly jostled each other in an attempt to see the whole ceremony. It is doubtful if a more brilliant and well dressed audience ever attended a wedding in Nashville. The gathering, viewed from the choir stand, appeared as if it were a garden of flowers in full bloom. Conspicuous in this brilliant gathering, because special seats had been reserved for them, was the H. T. G. M. Club, an organization of which the bride was a most active member. Prof. Frank Teasley presided at the organ and promptly at eight o'clock he began the wedding march of Mendelssohn as a processional. After Dr. Clark had taken his place at the altar, the bridal party entered, being led by Messrs. Samuel Carter and John Fleming, two of the ushers. These were followed by Messrs L. S. Gray and James Hurt, the other two ushers, and then followed Miss Tennie L. Hughes, accompanied by Mr. J. O. Battle. Next came Miss Esther Pinkard, accompanied by Rev. Ernest Hall, of Bloomington. Ill. The next to enter were the groom and his best man, Mr. A. T. Landers. These were followed in turn by little Katie Albertine Boyd, the flower girl, and the maid of honor, Miss Bessie Martin, with the bride. The bridal party presented a beautiful picture as it was assembled in the shape of a crescent in front of the altar. The bride, Miss Bradford, was exquisitely gowned in white messaline silk, made in a baby princess effect with a lace yoke and trimmed in point lace. She wore a tulle veil caught up with a cluster of lilies of the valley, and carried a large shower bouquet of lilies of the valley and bride's roses. The bridesmaids wore white chiffon made in princess effect and carried bouquets of white carnations. The maid of honor and flower girl were attired in white and carried pink carnations. The groom, best man and groomsmen wore black Prince Albert suits with gray waistcoats and gray silk ties. The ushers were attired in evening dress. Throughout the ceremony, Prof. Teasley played softly "Hearts and Flowers." At the conclusion of the prayer, which Dr. Clark offered, the recreational march began in the exact reverse to the way the party entered, with the exception that the procession was led by the flower girl. At the close of the ceremonies at the church, the bridal party repaired to the residence of Rev. R. H. Boyd, 523 Second avenue. North, where the reception was held. The parlors of the Boyd residence were soon packed almost to the point of suffocation with friends of the two interested families, who had come to bid to the newly wedded pair bon voyage on the matrimonial sea. For an hour or more the bride and groom received their friends and then retired to the dining-room where the wedding collation was served.

The bride's table was placed in the center and covered with a centerpiece of Mexican drawn work. A large bank of asparagus sphengerie with white chrysanthemums and bride's roses adorned the center and at each corner of the table were silver candalabras with green shades. Four silver trays were filled with green and white ribbon candies. The bride's cake was heart shaped and decorated in white and green. At the close of the reception the cake was cut by the bride and Mrs. Annie Hall, sister of the groom, cut the silver thimble; Rev. H. A. Boyd cut the darning needle, a nickel and two buttons; Katie Albertine Boyd cut a silver dime. A large number of useful and costly presents, coming from friends from almost every state in the Union, were received. The collection which contained many exquisite examples of handicraft, was so numerous as to prevent a proper exhibition of the same. Mr. and Mrs. Boyd will be at home on and after October 22, at 1603 Harding street. WEDDING BREAKFAST. Coming as a fitting climax to the brilliant wedding of the night before was the beautiful and superbly conducted wedding breakfast tendered the bride and groom Wednesday morning, at 8:30 o'clock, by Mr. and Mrs. Lovell Landers, at their residence, 1503 Fourteenth avenue, North. The table in the handsomely appointed dining-room, was laid for twelve covers. The decorations, blended harmoniously and pleasingly yet they brought into bold relief the color motif of pink and white. A handsome battenberg centerpiece covered the center of the table upon which was a large vase filled with white and pink American Beauty roses and white tube roses. A large white wedding bell was suspended from the chandelier from which extended white and pink ribbon to each plate, with the exception of those of the bride and groom. To the clapper of the bell was appended a card bearing the words: "Success we ring to both." The favors were lady slippers with the individual name of each guest and the names of the honorees of the occasion inscribed thereon. The following was the menu: Fruit, fried chicken, salmon croquettes with breakfast bacon, white potatoes, patties, rice, tomatoes, French rolls, coffee, tea. Those present were Rev. and Mrs. Henry Allen Boyd, Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, Mesdames Annie Boyd Hall, of Palestine, Tex.; Edward Lowery, of Huntsville, Ala.; and Charles Stewart, of Chicago, Ill.; Misses Bessie Martin, Tennie L. Hughes, Rev. Ernest Hall, of Bloomington, Ill.; Mr. J. O. Battle and Prof. A. T. Landers. WEDDINGS Gordon - Williams. Mr. Jerry Gordon and Miss Vina Williams were married last Wednesday evening, at the home of the bride's parents, 909 Shankland street, Dr. C. H. Clark officiating. Miss Walker played the wedding march. A number of handsome presents were received. They will reside with Mr. and Mrs. Walker Williams. Wright—Wilson. A wedding of interest to many was that of Miss Johnnie D. Wilson to Mr. H. S. Wright on Thursday evening of last week at the residence of the bride's parents. Robertson street, (Continued on Page 8.) STATE ANNUAL CONFERENCE Of Methodist Episcopal Church Closes Session. MEETINGS WERE HELD IN AUDI- TORIUM AT WALDEN. REPORTS SHOW SUCCESSFUL YEAR'S WORK—DR. M. C. B. MASON DELIVERED AN ADDRESS TO THE CONFERENCE— EFFORT A MOST LASTING ONE. The State Annual Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church convened in this city Wednesday, October 14, and held its sessions in the auditorium of Walden University. A special program was arranged for Wednesday evening, the chief feature of which was the speech to be delivered by Dr. M. C. B. Mason. Mrs. Mason, his wife, was also to deliver an address. Sometime before the opening of the session the beautiful and spacious auditorium was filled beyond its seating capacity with one of those magnificent audiences which notable occasions at Walden usually bring out. The information that Dr. Mason would be the principal speaker of the occasion was all-sufficient to bring out those who knew him and those who had heard A few minutes before the time for the presiding officer, Rev. L. M. Moore, called the house to order, Dr. Mason and wife, with several others, entered and were the recipients of a hearty demonstration of applause by the audience. About 8 o'clock Rev. Mr. Moore, presiding, after explaining the nature of the occasion, announced the first number on the program, "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," in which the audience rising and standing took part after which Bishop C. H. Phillips offered a fervent invocation for Divine favor upon the occasion. The prayer was followed by a beautiful anthem by the choral choir. Rev. Mr. Moore then asked for a collection and while several young men were passing the collection baskets another inspiring anthem was rendered by the choir, which was followed by a rich rendition by a double quartet of young ladies. It was apparent that the audience was anxious for the time to arrive for the addresses, as was shown by the reception accorded the introduction of Mrs. Mason, who arose amidst much applause. Mrs. Mason, who is prominently connected with the Woman's Missionary Society, made a splendid address. Her exposition of this very important department of Christian service for the women of the Church, was clear, convincing and inspiring. She made an earnest plea for purer homes as the principal factor of insuring the uplift of the rising generation to a higher plane of moral life and character. She said that woman was largely responsible for the kind of homes that the future should have, and therefore the Christian women should try to do what lies within their power to make the homes of this land what they should be. When Dr. Mason arose to speak he was given an ovation. He endured without any preliminaries upon the discussion of his subject, "Law, Government and Order," which summed up, he demonstrated plainly, meant self-control. During his speech, which lasted more than an hour, Dr. Mason held his audience spell-bound and absorbed with the eloquent flow of as masterful a plea for the highest ideals of real, true manhood as ever was heard in these parts. It was a grand and magnificent effort and that vast audience showed its intense appreciation by constant applause. A nice collection for his work followed as logical, as foreful and as eloquent a speech as was ever delivered here. After the collection had been taken up, benediction was pronounced by Dr. Keys.

No.42 Forty-first Annual Session at Shelbyville. OVER THREE HUNDRED MINISTERS AND VISITORS. CITIZENS OF THRIVING TOWN THROW WIDE OPEN THEIR DOORS — BRILLIANT AND IMPRESSIVE OPENING—BISHOP H. B. PARKS, OF CHICAGO, PRESIDING. The annual conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church is in session at Shelbyville, Tenn. The conference convened Wednesday morning, Oct. 21, at 9 o'clock sharp, Bishop H. B. Parks, D. D., of Chicago, Ill., presiding. Devotional services were conducted by Rev. J. Q. Johnson, presiding elder of the Columbia District. Prayer was offered by Rev. G. L. Jackson, D. D., presiding elder of the South Nashville District. After singing the bishop presented Rev. S. L. Howard, D. D., of Columbia, who was to preach the annual sermon. His effort seemed to meet the approval of all the members of the conference. At the conclusion of the sermon the sacrament was administered by Bishop Parks, assisted by several of the ministers. This concluded the opening services and the conference was then ready to get down to business. The roll was called and one hundred and ten answered to their names. Next business in order was the election of the secretaries. Dr. J. A. Jones, president of Turner Normal School was elected secretary; Rev. J. S. Gilmore, assistant secretary; Rev. C. H. Boone, statistical secretary. After the election the reports were taken up by districts. The Nashville District of which Dr. T. W. Haigler of this city is the presiding elder was the first called. The reports with few exceptions showed an increase over last year. At the afternoon session the reports were continued and with the same showing as a rule as that made by the members of the Nashville District. Bishop Parks suspended business long enough during the afternoon to have a short talk by Bishop Tyre, of Nashville, Tenn. He electrified the members of the conference with his eloquence. He told of the work being done in Texas for education and congratulated the conference of Tennessee on the new energy they are putting into the work. Bishop Tyre left on the 4:20 train for Nashville to get ready to leave for his field of labor in Texas. Bishop Parks gave him a message to carry to the pastors down in the Lone Star State. He said tell them that fro mthe craggy peaks of the Cumberlands to the gentle waters of the Cumberlands we are marching, and that in Tennessee during this quadrennium a magnificent brick building will be erected on yon campus by the sons of the noble fathers who blazed the way in the days back yonder. Bishop Parks is putting new life into the work of his church in this state and the ministers and people are in ear nest about their educational affairs. The conference will continue until Monday. FAREWELL GATHERING Last Monday night at the residence of Mrs. Cynthia Stratton, 911 Jackson street, a farewell party was given in honor of Miss Katie Matthews, who is to leave the city for Chicago the latter part of the week to make her future home. Games and dancing was the program for the evening. A three-course menu was served. Those to enjoy the affair were Miss Nannie Harris, Lillie Moore, Althea Stratton, Messrs. Frank Luckett, C. A. Whitley, Walter Morrison. Louis McClellan, Chas. Garrett, Dan Bates, D. Whitley, George Lee, Joe Moore, Herman Matthews. S. Frierson, B. Lee, Mr. and Mrs. Ben Stratton and Richard Perkins. HALLOWE'EN PARTY. The Fisk Literary Club will give a hallowe'en party at the Fisk Training School Friday evening, Oct. 30. All are cordially invited. M. B. 1 "But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her." If you wish a healthy head of hair that is lively, bright and glowing, Makes Some Facts Known That Will Be Interesting to Nashville Readers. There is no man who visits Nashville frequently more highly respected and honored than is Rev. J. P. Robinson, A. M., D. D., who was in the city last week attending the meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of which he is a member. He is also chairman of the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention. While here Dr. Robinson was interviewed by a Globe reporter, because his national reputation as a leading race man and a gospel minister of great ability makes his opinion worth a deal in Nashville or wherever he goes. To the people here his church at Little Rock, the First Baptist, is the Mount Olive of that city. His membership is about 1,800, hence he reaches the masses. In talking over the conditions of affairs in Arkansas, Dr. Robinson was very optimistic. He admitted that conditions financially could be better. He was asked if the night riders had invaded his state and if it was true that Negroes had resorted to it, to which he replied in the negative. He said: "I have heard something of this night riding among Negroes, but I have not been greatly disturbed; in fact, I consider that the thing is done with when they report that the Negroes have taken it up. There is one thing I would like to state that we have been doing over in Little Rock. We have actually had an inter-race meeting among the leading white and Negro ministers of all the denominations. We had educators in this meeting. It was not held in lieu of any disturbances between the races, as we have not had any friction that would amount to anything. But the meeting was called and held in order that the Negroes and whites might better understand each other, and that they might work together religiously for the upbuilding of the entire citizenship, as it is apparent that the lower element works together creating vice, making criminals and dragging down the race. "Little Rock is an important city—the capital of Arkansas, if you please. We have three very large colleges in our city. The Arkansas Baptist College, Prof. J. A Booker, President; the Shorter College, Prof. Hill, President; the Philander Smith College, Prof. J. M. Cox, President. Hence, we have quite a few hundred students from all over the country in our city each year. We are building up an intelligent, refined, educated lot of young people. So we decided to take advance steps towards bettering the condition. In our meeting there were such white ministers as Rev. Ben Cox, Drs. Hyde and Jessup and others such Negroes as Rev. Sims, Rev. Gains, Profs. Booker and Hill and others. It was a plain, friendly meeting. Each was asked to express his views. We decided that the Devil had had a picnic for many years, as he had worked both races to his own advantage, using the old winning card—prejudice. He had encouraged the white minister not to consult the Negro on account of his color and past condition. He had encouraged the Negro not to consult the white man on account of his hair and previous condition. So he had won the game. But these small matters were laid aside. We came together and by mutual agreement canvassed the city by twos—one Negro minister and one white minister. We have made a house to house canvass and great was the results. We expect to tune these meetings. The confer- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 23. 1908 use Ideal Hair Tonic. Prices, 25 cents, 35 cents, 50 cents per bottle. Prepared by Wm. Sevier, Ph. G., M.

OUT IN THE STREETS DRAMAT CLUB. The "Out in the Streets" D. Club met Monday afternoon, October 12, at 3 o'clock, at the residence of Mrs. A. M. Townsend and elected the following officers: Mrs. A. M. Townsend, President and Manager; Mr. Will Davis, Vice President; Mr. Geo. O. Darden, Secretary; Miss Floy Darrell, Assistant Secretary; Mr. William Stockell, Treasurer; Mrs. J. T. Shelby, Critic. The club will hereafter be known as "The East Nashville Temperance Dramatic Club." The club is proud to be the recipient of a letter from a lady in Waco, Texas, and also one from Columbia, who were anxiously inquiring where a copy of the drama called "Out in the Streets" might be procured. They are proud to know that aside from realizing a pecuniary success at Spruce Street Baptist Church on September 14, that the-readers of the Globe are discussing the drama favorably, and from the effort made at the old mother Baptist church an interest has been awakened in the young people for a higher class of church entertainment. Not only was this interest created in Nashville and in the state of Tennessee throughout, but also in the East Central portion of Texas as well. The club has accepted the membership of little 5-year-old A. M. Townsend, who will be attired as a girl and represent "Minnie." Mrs. Myrtle Bradford's little sick, half-clad child. There is no doubt that A. M. will be a star, for not a day passes without his suggesting his rehearsal. He is delighted with his part and can render it beautifully. The club is delighted to have little A. M., whose memory and dramatic powers are far above the ordinary. ROSE IS DEAD. There was much sadness in North Nashville last week, occasioned by the untimely death of Rose, Tears were shed in large quantities, so intense was the weeping. All of those who knew Rose had become attached to her. She was beautiful, lovable and the pride of the neighborhood. She was the property of Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey Bowling, a congenial couple residing on Batavia street. Rose was sixteen years old. No dog in Nashville was better taken care of. There was not a finer dog in Nashville. The death occurred at six o'clock Thursday Oct. 15. The news spread all over the city, as she was the most popular of all the canine family. Up to Thursday noon no arrangements had been announced for the funeral. She leaves a dear companion, known as Big Foot, a dog of equal beauty, size, and about as well known. FISK LITERARY CLUB The Fisk Literary Club held its first meeting of the fall on Friday, October 9, with Miss Lucy B. White, of Fourteenth avenue, North.

They are Mrs. P. R. Burrus, President; Mrs.) C. W. Brown, Vice President; Miss Lillian A. Banks, Treasurer; Miss Lillian A. Bright, Secretary. The programme consisted of vocal and instrumental numbers of a high order and a reading by Rev. Mr. Imes, which was much enjoyed. After the programme an elaborate afternoon collation was served, the guests being seated at a table decorated with a bouquet of dahlias and ferns, with Fisk's colors prominent. The club holds its next meeting Saturday afternoon, October 24, at 3:30 o'clock, with the Misses Banks, of Gay street. IN HONOR OF MRS. DOZIER Mrs. J. T. Austin, of Grundy street, entertained her cousin, Mrs. Joe Dozier, of Chicago, last week. Dancing and games were the enjoyment of the evening. Mrs. Adora Swift presided at the piano. INSTALLATION.

Feeney, former cashier of the First National Bank, was granted in the Federal Court last week by Judge F. T. Sanford on a petition of Mr. W. B. Lamb of Fayetteville, counsel for the defendant. It was stated that Mr. Feeney was physically unable to stand the strain of a cross-examination. Judge Sanford warned Mr. Lamb that the court must be advised of the state of the health of the defendant if the latter was not able to appear at the time next set for the hearing of the case. H. T. G. M. CLUB The H. T. G. M. Club met Tuesday, Oct. 13, at the residence of Miss Minnie Mae Hunter, 1309 Hynes street. The occasion of the meeting was a "Novelty Shower" in honor of the Club's brides-elect. Misses Georgia A. Bradford and Carrie M. Bryant. The beautiful double parlors were decorated with the club colors and a large banner with the initials of the club in gilt and decorated with united hearts, was suspended between the folding doors. Two immense white bells hung from the chandlers in which were concealed the novelties. The brides-to-be were given dainty white baskets and told to stand beneath the bells and pull the ribbons. A shower of novelties, such as pins, needles, buttons, bodkins, hairpins, ribbons, buckles, collar-stays, hook and eyes and other useful articles fell in profusion. Each young lady was happy as she gathered the gifts of her friends and deposited each in her basket. Many words of cheer and hope for a life of happiness and usefulness were expressed for the future of these two young ladies. The members of the club regret the loss of their congenial companions.

Atlanta, Ga., October 16.—It looks as though the Negroes in the state of Georgia, like those in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Virginia and other southern states, have been unconstitutionally disfranchised. The official returns will, no doubt, show that Hon. Jos. M. Brown is elected Governor over Capt. Yancey Carter by an overwhelming majority. The election had two important features aside from that of governor: one was that of pension commissioner, in which John W. Lindsey was elected; the other was the amendment to the Constitution, which provides for the disfranchisement of certain citizens in the state of Georgia, namely, the Afro-American. The Negro vote was exceedingly heavy, but they were not expected to be able to prevent the amendment from passing, because it was rumored months ago in official circles that all the Negroes would be disfranchised. It appears to be another dodge of the southern whites to come in real competition with the Negro. The vote against the amendment was about 50,000, while the vote in favor of the amendment was in the neighborhood of 70,000. Georgia now stands in greater disgrace in the eyes of the world than she did after the Atlanta riot.

Brown, Treasurer; Anthony Allison, Sergeant-at-Arms. The following resolutions were passed: Whereas, We as loyal American citizens have stood by and supported the Republican party in the State of Tennessee for the last forty years or more, actuated by the feeling that we were serving the best interest of our race, having been liberated from slavery while under a Republican administration, and very naturally felt ourselves obligated to them and remained true to their interest until we were forced to see that our loyalty was being taken advantage of by unscrupulous politicians and office-holders to feather their own nests at our expense; and Whereas, It has dawned upon us that we are living in a new age and under different conditions, and that we are free citizens and tax-payers, and feel no longer bound to wear any party collar to put in office any set of men while our own interest is being neglected. Therefore, Resolved. That we as free men living in a so-called free country and feeling that we have a right to support such men and measures as will in our judgment bring about the most prosperous and agreeable conditions, endorse Hon. M. R. Patterson for Governor of Tennessee, and pledge to him our hearty support on the third day of November. CONCERT AT LEA AVENUE CHURCH.

SHALL WE BE MEN POLITICALLY? For forty odd years the Negro has been free. For a similar period of time he has been entitled to the elective franchise. Likewise during the intervening period, schools established by our Northern friends and Southern neighbors and friends have worked industriously to lower our rate of illiteracy and teach us to think for ourselves. With these "forty years in the wilderness" behind us, is it not time that we should think for ourselves? Is it not time that we rise above the place where a person can look into the city directory and tell the politics of every voter of the race? Is it not time that we should exercise our "great intelligence" and "wonderful progress" so discriminatingly that no candidate for office will flippantly and insultingly remark that men of our race who refuse to support him do so from their love of strong drink, which he claims is stronger in the breast of the Negro than the love for his wife? In fine, has not the hour arrived when we should cease to be "political children," as Mr. Taft puts it, and walk out as men, vote as our consciences direct us whether that vote be for the republicans, democrats, socialists, prohibitionists, or what not? DEPLORABLE. The night-rider raids, which are in reality but a revival of the iniquitous Ku Klux Klan, a new name for a mob, came to a climax in this state when a body of men, estimated at from 50 to 225 lynched a prominent member of the state bar at Walnut Log, on the banks of Reelfoot Lake. The prominence of the murdered man politically, socially and professionally, and the utter disregard for the law shown by the lynchers, have aroused the forces of justice which have heretofore, seemingly, winked at the murder of the more humble citizens of the state. The lynching was the result of the legal fight between the fishermen of the Reelfoot Lake district and the land company which owns the lake property. The contention of the fishermen that the lake should be open to all who may desire to fish therein is a just one. It is out of harmony with the free institutions of this country that its streams should be owned or controlled by private monopolies. But their method of accomplishing their desires is the forerunner of anarchism. Tennessee is aroused. A reward of $10,000 has been offered for the ar- --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1908 rest and conviction of the members of the mob. Troops have been sent to the scene of the murders and Governor Patterson has cancelled his speaking engagements to devote his personal attention to the chasing down of the midnight murderers. But what is to come of all these activities? Will any of the lynchers be properly punished? We are of the opinion that owing to fear of witnesses and the public sentiment of the community in which the crime was committed that not a man will be convicted. The trouble is that Tennessee has temporized with the mob spirit too long. Negroes, equal in the sight of the law to the white man killed at Walnut Log, have been killed in various parts of the state and no efforts have been made to apprehend their murderers. Night-rider atrocities have gone unpunished. Now, finding itself unchecked, lawlessness, unsatisfied with Negro and "hill billy" victims, has claimed as its sacrifice one of West Tennessee's leading lights. We glean no satisfaction from the fact that "white men have at last begun to lynch each other." We deplore the tragedy. But we do hope that since the mob has reached the point where it is no respecter of persons, that the heavy hand of justice, which should have been in service from the incipiency of mob violence, will wipe from Tennessee, once and for all, the rule of the lawless elements. A CONTRAST In striking contrast to the energetic efforts to establish the supremacy of the law in the Reelfoot Lake regions is the ending of the trial for contempt of court in the case of nine participants of the mob, which lynched Elmo Howard last May at Pulaski. The judge of the local court instructed the grand jury to indict the participants of the mob for murder. The grand jury having failed to follow his instructions, the judge had nine men arrested on bench warrants for contempt of court. The defendants went to trial on the following agreed statement of facts: Circuit Court of Giles County, October Term, 1908, Contempt.—In this case it was agreed by the State of Tennessee, represented by J. B. Garner, Attorney General, and the defendants and their counsel, R. H. McLaurine, E. W. Crowell, W. B. Smithson, J. D. Woodward, Stewart Wilkes, Ben Childers and E. E. Eslick, to submit this cause to the court for hearing and determination upon the whole record and following agreed statement of facts. It is agreed that on the 5th day of May, 1908, Elmo Howard, colored, aged about 17 years, made a felonious assault and battery upon the body of Miss Claudie Allen, a white woman, aged 25 and of good character, with intent to carnally know her forcibly and against her will; that on the 6th day of May, 1908, said Elmo Howard was arrested and placed in the Giles County jail, the Circuit Court for said county and grand jury being in session, that on the 8th day of May the grand jury for said county returned an indictment against Elmo Howard for said assault with intent to rape, which indictment was in regular form, that immediately court set said case for trial for Monday, May 11, 1908, following; that said defendant was represented by counsel, who agreed to said date of trial, after the indictment was returned and the cause set for trial as above stated, the defendant, Elmo Howard, being then in the county jail in custody of the Sheriff, the defendants, together with other unknown people, proceeded to the jail and entered same with force, breaking the doors leading to the cell in which Elmo Howard was confined, took him from jail over the protest of the Sheriff and his deputies, and with force. Said defendants with other unknown parties, tied a rope around the said Elmo Howard's neck, passing up the street north to the Public Square and across the Public Square to the point where the new courthouse was being constructed, with the intention of hanging said Elmo Howard at this place, and proceeded across the Public Square, passing the building where the Circuit Court was then in session. In view of the windows of the courthouse, passing on down Second Main street about one-fourth of a mile to the bridge crossing Rich land Creek, where the defendants and others hung said Elmo Howard till he was dead. It is agreed that the defendants may not have known that the court was in session at that time, although they knew that it was in term time. It is agreed that the mob participating in this lynching numbered several hundred men, whether actually in charge of and having hold of the negro, or whether as aiders and abettors. It is further agreed that these defendants acting with others, had been informed that in this case the specific offense of rape had been committed, and it is also agreed that they had been informed that for an assault with intent to commit rape the extreme penalty of the law was twenty years in the penitentiary. It is further agreed that there was a large crowd of men in Pulaski that day from the section of the county where the offense is said to have occurred, and excitement and feeling ran high. And defendants were further informed that day that this Negro Elmo Howard had previously been accused of the offense of rape on another white woman. The conduct of the defendants in going by the courthouse was not premeditated or designed. Defendants are all white and could prove good characters. And in addition to the facts hereinbefore agreed upon defendants desire to state that no contempt was intended. At the conclusion of the trial Judge Holding fined the defendants $50 each and sentenced them to ten days in the county jail. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court. Need we go further than this Pulaski travesty, where men admitting their participation in a lynching, offer as an excuse that they are "white men," for the seeds which have produced the Reelfoot Lake murder? Shall we make plainer so obvious a contrast? The Globe is not a democratic organ nor is it the organ of the "I wont hear you one minute" followers. We are supporting the democratic candidate for governor as a matter of principle. For the same reason we are supporting Taft for the Presidency. The Globe believes that our race can be best served—as can any other race—by having an unpurchasable press, a press that can not be swerved from its duty by the gibes of those who may not agree with it. It worries us not when those whose political education has only reached "The republican party is the ship; all else is the sea" grade, call us "democrat" nor does it disturb our equanimity when the radical supporters of Mr. Bryan violently denounce our support of Mr. Taft. The Globe stands for the new type of Negro journalism, the type whose policy is dictated by convictions. Two thousand deaths among the Negroes of Tennessee last year were caused by consumption! Is it not horrible! Yet, what are we doing to check the ravages of this dread disease? Our physicians should be in the forefront in this cause of humanity and more attention should be paid to teaching health rules in our city schools. It is better to have a healthy body than a head full of knowledge that a premature death will make useless. Some of the supporters of Bryan are saying that Taft has an excellent chance to carry Tennessee. This is simply a case of bellowing fire when no fire exist in order to bring out the Bryan vote. Taft has no more chance to carry Tennessee than a gentleman of color has to being invited to dine with President Roosevelt. In every estimate of how the general election is going, the Negro vote is rated as one of the unknown quantities. Heretofore it has been acknowledged that N-e-g-r-o equalled republican, but now Chairman Hitchcock and Mack are both industriously seeking the answer to the problem. We extend our heartiest congratulations to our co-laborer, business associate and friend, Mr. Henry Allen Boyd, for taking unto himself a "better half," a help mate, a wife. It is the hope of each member of the company that Mr. and Mrs. Boyd have before them a life unclouded by sorrow. Taft tells his southern friends that if a man carries them in his pocket and they make no trouble that they are not likely to receive very much consideration. Evidently the Negro and the labor vote caused our candidate to arrive at this conclusion. Gov. Patterson's friends should put a muzzle on that Slack editorial writer of the Nashville American.

Parks, D. D. The Twelfth Episcopal District is fortunate in having the matchless H. B. Parks, as its presiding Bishop. Wherever this man of God goes the people delight to do him honor. The great work that he has accomplished in the church bespeaks a great man. St. Paul is proud of the origin of African Methodism and its methods of race elevation, delights to do honor to its heroes. The evening of October 12, was made memorable by a reception, unique in character, which was tendered Bishop Parks by several male members of St. Paul in the palatial home of Bishop Evans Tyree, D. D. Mrs. Tyree, daughters and other ladies of the church did everything necessary to make the evening a pleasant one. Luncheon was the programme from 10:30 to 11 o'clock. Luncheon having been finished, the toastmaster, Prof. J. B. Batte, handed a large, beautiful bouquet to Prof. I. T. Bryant, who presented it to Bishop Parks. The bishop expressed his gratitude in a ten-minute speech which thrilled the hearts of all present. The following persons responded to toasts: Rev. C. H. Boone, "Our Guest;" Bishop Tyree, "Nashville" (the bishop made us welcome and told us to feel as free as the water which flows in the Cumberland River); Dr. J. I. Watson, "Our Church;" Prof. I. T. Bryant, "Our Sunday-School Union;" Dr. R. F. Boyd, "Our Ladies;" Mr. Taylor Saunders, "Our Steward Board;" Mr. Duran Houston, "Our Trustee Board;" Mr. Edward Buford, "Our Conference." Others present were Messrs. --- --- J. H. Adams, Nathan Perry, T. J. Rhodes, John Finley, Charles Walker, Jobe Sharp, German Redmond. It was late when glad and cheerful hearts departed for home. It's Anarchism. To The Nashville Globe: In a moment of retrospective mood and while contemplating his many black and heinous crimes, Macbeth, one of Shakespeare's character, once said, "I am in blood stepped in so far; that, should I wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o'er." The same is logically true of the nightriders. Midnight marauders are infesting nearly every state of the South, leaving in their wake a trail of blood and death. Over telegraph and telephone wires Tuesday morning went speeding to the world the news of another horrible crime, charged up to masked assassins. Everybody who read the account was horrified. The prominence of the victims emphasizes the fact that lawlessness unchecked is no respecter of person. Too long has Justice slept. Too long have these organized stranglers gone unpunished. Too long they have been slaking their thirst for gore on blood drawn from Negro victims. Their thirst has grown apace with their liberty to glut unmolested, until now they crave for the bluest blood of their own race. Such is the force of unrestrained appetite and habit. These men, like the stranglers of India, will now brook no restraint or interference with their hideous and inhuman pastime, as is evidenced by their frightful work Monday night. The scene of crime of Monday night was not far from the one in which David Walker and his family, including THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 23. 1908 No. 5128-H.—For Platform Decorations.

NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISH 523 SECOND AENUE, NO Nashville, an infant in its mother's arm, were shot to pieces by fifty or more armed assassins. Reelfoot Lake and Hickman, Ky., are not at the opposite extremes of the earth from each other, and thereby hangs a tale. Almost an entire family wiped from the earth, including children, and the press reports of this section announced the day after that slaughter that no arrests had been made and none would probably ever be made. That was an astounding piece of news to go out to the world in the face of such a crime. In so many words the press reports said to the men who had committed that crime, "You will not be disturbed. It is a little bad but they are only Negroes." But it is hardly to be doubted that some of those who helped to kill Mr. Walker and his children were in the gang that killed Capt. Rankin and tried their utmost to do the same for Col. Taylor. To-day all the world knows of this last deed in the long catalogue of nightrider crimes. The Governor, soldiers and citizens are up in arms to put down the anarchism which has had too long a lease of life, and which is deeply rooted and spreading throughout the South with amazing rapidity. So well organized are these night-rider gangs that the law-abiding citizenry is afraid to incur their displeasure. When organized crime stalks abroad; when men's lives fade sooner than the plucked flower; when each night records some new horror; when women and children are slain with impunity the same as men, who is he that will raise his voice and arm to bring to justice those guilty of uproaring the peace and pouring the milk of concord into hell? Is it not a fact that judges and courts are intimidated by fear of prospective consequences at the hands of those who prowl the prow the (Continued on Page 8.) --- THE BRICK CANDY BOXES.

The Ku Klux Klans winnowed the South with Negro victims, but the Nightriders are including in their harvest all classes and conditions of people. An influential paper that said recently that there were not enough lynchings and enough hangings, now asks editorially, "Where will it end?" Yes, is it consistent for it to ask, "Where will it end?" When it asserted that there were not enough lynchings and killings it was feeding and inflaming the passions of men, oblivious or indifferent at the time of the consequences of such advice. If private citizens, singly or organized, redress their real or fancied wrongs in defiance to law, then those who established our system of government, the chief underlying principal of which is that no man shall be deprived of life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness without due process of the law, wrought in vain, and the boasted great North American republic is a fable or an imposition upon the credulity of mankind. Diseases of Women and Children a Specialty. 10-9-08-t2. Never before in the history of Walden University, or as formerly called, Central Tennessee College, have affairs become tangled or complicated. The condition of things is alarming. The president is wholly responsible for such conditions, having used his house as a dining-room for the white teachers of the faculty last year. He has become quite bold this year and has furnished the old Wells Home complete for the reception of white teachers. I am sorry to say so, but such is true. We are allowing race prejudice to seep into the hearts of our faculty. What is --- BRICK CANDY BOX. CORNUCOPIA CANDY BOX JADECEE To the Nashville Globe.

The loss is said to exceed $2,000. The houses were all occupied by colored people and owned by a white man named Lindsley. Some of the occupants lost all of their belongings. SPRUCE STREET CHURCH PASTOR STORMED. On last Wednesday evening at the beautiful residence of Dr. and Mrs. T. J. Townsend on Jefferson street, there was witnessed one of the biggest storms for many seasons. The band was led by Mrs. Katie Richmond, followed by many other loyal members of Spruce Street Baptist Church, who stormed their beloved pastor. Everything eatable bedecked the dining-room table. Short addresses were made by Miss M. E. V. Reid and Mr. S. Evans Shirley. Appropriate responses were made by Dr. and Mrs. Townsend, after which scriptural quotations were made by those present as their names were called. "God be with you" was sung, and the jolly crowd went hither and thither to their various homes. The following parties made up the band: Katie Richmond, Lizzie James, Fannie Clayton, Rachel White, Lou Brown, Maggie Fisher, Bettie Walker, Mary Moore, Hettie Fowler, Mattie Moore, Jessie Whiteside, Mamie Brooks, Anna Pentup, Leola Porter, C.

Music and games were features of the evening. Those present were Misses J. Etta O'Neal, Etna Howland, Ella Darden, Elma A. Williams, Messrs. J. Wyman Brady, Bonnie Prim, William Williams. This is one time the change wrought by the Tennessee Conference falls heavy upon the people of Murfreesboro, in removing one of the best pastors and men that ever graced the pulpit of Key Chapel, Rev. B. F. Anderson. Just how well he has served the people of his congregation and the city is fully attested by the love and esteem in which he is held by every denomination. And with all due regard to his predecessors, we say without hesitation that he is one of few men who have held this charge about whom we have never heard a word of criticism. Rev. Anderson is a forceful speaker, strong in his convictions and a gentleman, broad-minded and liberal in his views, and if his successor measures up to this standard, he will establish himself in the hearts of the people at once. The people of Murfreesboro predict for Rev. Anderson a brilliant career in his chosen field and a rich reward at the close of life. The many friends of Mrs. Lizzie Calhoun, the daughter of Mr. Wm. Stancel, will regret to hear of her death, which occurred in Kansas City, Kan., Sunday. Miss Johnnie O'Neal spent Saturday at Dilton, the guest of Rev. and Mrs. Will Henderson.

Mason, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, addressed the students Wednesday afternoon, October 14. He also delivered a lecture in the evening to the conference and the student body. It is a pity that the whole of Nashville could not have heard this lecture. Rev. Mr. Baketel, of Manchester, N. H., who has charge of the Sunday-school work of the M. E. Church, addressed the students also Wednesday afternoon, October 14. W. W. Nolen, brother of our own late Dr. J. B. Nolen, and also a law student of Yale University, addressed the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon, October 18. His subject "The centralized forces of international civilization," which was most masterfully treated, was both interesting and instructive. Mr. Jas. A. Hunton, Secretary of the colored department of the Y. M. C. A., also addressed the college society. His talk was, as always, broad and comprehensive. Bishop Goodsell, presiding bishop of the recent Nashville M. E. Conference, delivered a most eloquent sermon at the Meharry Auditorium Sunday, October 18, to a packed house. His text was the Epistle of St. Paul to the Colossians, (1st chapter and 27th verse)—"To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." His interpretation of the words, mystery, hope and glory was magnificent and edifying. The bishop addressed the Walden University student body Tuesday afternoon, October 20. We deeply regret to report the death of Dr. W. C. Kyle, of East St. Louis, Ill. It appears that the house in which he was asleep caught fire during the night, and he being all alone, ran out, but returned to try to recover some of his valuables, when the burning building collapsed upon him. Dr. Kyle finished his medical course with the class of '08. His family has our deepest sympathy. We were pleased to shake hands with Dr. E. R. Gravelly, of the class of '08, who is practicing in McMinnville, Teen. He is visiting in the city. The doctor reports unexpected success professionally. Efforts are on foot to arrange a game between Howard and Meharry in the near future. The public will be duly notified. For ten years Dr. Daniel H. Williams, one of the most noted surgeons of the country and the leading surgeon of the race, has held in annual surgical clinic at Mercy Hospital. Each year the physicians of the race have sent or brought to this clinic many important surgical cases. The Alumni of Meharry Medical College and the other physicians of the race are hereby notified that Dr. Williams will hold the annual surgical clinic at Mercy Hospital one week, beginning Monday, October 26. You may bring or send in your surgical cases about that time. Dr. Jno. A. Kennedy, resident physician of Tuskegee Institute, will assist and also deliver special instruction in anesthesia. Those who contemplate bringing cases will please notify Dr. R. F. Boyd. Hospital fees, $7.00 to $10.00 per week. Patients too poor to pay will be treated free. STROLLERS' SOCIAL CLUB. The Strollers' Social Club entertained a number of friends at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. Vinson, 1712 Seventeenth avenue, North, on Wednesday evening of last week. Dancing and various games were the diversions of the evening. Mrs. Lazinka B. Dickson, formerly of Nashville, but now of Jersey City, N. J., was the honoree of the evening. At a late hour an ice course was served. VERDI KINDERGARTEN. MISS MATTIE F. MATTHEWS, Principal. St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, 8TH AVE., N. AND GAY ST.

COMMUNICATIONS. the cause of such? and such being true are we going to sit around with our fingers in our mouth like suckling babes and stand for such abuses to be heaped upon us? No, a thousand times no. The first thing to be done is to find the cause and then remedy the cause. If the president is responsible for such conditions and refuses to break them up, we say get another president, for there are other men who will make just as good, yes, a better president. If he hasn't the backbone or nerve to stand for the right, then we don't need him; the quicker we rid ourselves of such a man the better it will be for the University. This age demands that we be men and act like men and not babies. The trouble is, "We white teachers can't eat in the dining-room with the nigger teachers nor eat what they eat." Is it possible that the few white teachers here have been used to so much more in the North than we Negroes down here, or is it the prejudice that naturally was in their veins? It cannot be the former so it must be the latter, because there are one or more both white and colored teachers who have come from just as far North or East as the others and who are used to having as much or more and these few can or must put up with the eating in the dining-room with the students and other colored teachers. If these can do so or must do so why not let the others do so or get out. Let their consciences be their guide as is what to do. We have one teacher (white) in the person of Miss Seaver who is from the North, yet she eats with the colored teachers and really enjoys the company of the student body. Can you account for it? Yes, here it is. She is simply a perfect lady. When asked to join the other white teachers in their cozy little dining-room she was heard to say that she enjoyed being with the students and refused to go. Miss Maymie Braden, the oldest teacher on the faculty and too a noble woman, is highly indignant over the affair. Dr. M. C. B. Mason, one of the most able orators of our race delivered an address last week and Miss Maymie Braden was the only white teacher save the President who was present. Can you not tell by that that there is something wrong somewhere? The student body does not endorse such actions and unless some step is taken to stop or break up the same, they will adopt some methods themselves, and we the colored citizens of Nashville are ready and willing to give them our loyal support. A Friend to the University, G. O. N. South Nashville. THE "OUT IN THE STREETS" DRAMATIC BENDITION. The next rendition will be given for the benefit of the Charity Ward of Wilson Infirmary. Date and place will be mentioned in next week's Globe. The music rendered was superb. The vast audience was composed of the representative people of Nashville. Miss Geneva Bender won for herself loud applause on her solo, "The night birds are cooing." Mrs. Josie Henderson made a decided hit on "Ora Pro Nobis." Mrs. Townsend brought tears in the pathetic role of Mrs. Bradford. Pete will always live in the memory of the Nashville people, for amid tears he brought forth uproarious laughter. The little White boys, sons of Dr. and Mrs. Robt. White, sang sweetly a little duet, "Won't you lend me your Teddy Bear," which was highly received and given an encore. The whole evening's program was composed of some of Nashville's best talent, and every section of the city was represented. Every participant deserves special mention, for the whole program from beginning to end was grand. A nice sum was cleared and turned over to the church. Mrs. Benton won the prize. FOUND DEAD IN AN ALLEY. Albert Washington, aged 50 years, was found dead in an alley back of the Gerst Brewing Company last Wednesday morning, and death is thought to have been the result of heart failure, as he had suffered from it for some time.

The game of football which was played between Fisk's second team and Pearl High School resulted in a score of 5 to 0 in favor of Fisk, a touchdown being made by Mr. B. L. Clark. For the first game of the season it was splendidly attended and every one seemed to enjoy it. After the game there was a piano recital in Memorial Chapel by Miss Cook. The recital was a rare treat to all who heard it. Dean H. H. Wright and Prof. John Work, Prof. Ryder and others from Fisk left this week for Galesburg, Ill., to attend the great American Missionary Association. The faculty and student body held special prayer service last Tuesday at the Sixth period, that being the first day of the session of this great Association which has done and is doing so much for Fisk. Dr. Morrow conducted the services and many interesting talks were made by members of the faculty. There will be a football game on Bennett Field Saturday, October 24, at 2:30 p. m.. Fisk Sophomores vs. Mehairy Sophomores. The game is expected to be one of great interest. As each school is largely attended, quite a large crowd is expected. FOOTBALL Atlanta, Ga., October 17, 1908—The Baptist College Tigers triumphed over Athens this afternoon in a decisive manner. The maroon and white rolled up a score of 54 points, while the lads from Athens did not even seriously threaten the Tigers' goal line at any stage of the game. For a few brief moments in the opening half, Athens showed great strength, her right-half broke through the line and with a clear field started towards the goal, but he was tackled so hard that he fumbled the ball. After that Athens never had a look-in. Both teams worked hard from the beginning to the end. The big score does by no means tell the hard struggles for victory. Both teams played great ball. Davis and Madison were still at the ends, Arnold and Windom in guard, "Bob" and "Vic" Turners held their places as tackle, Zuber at quarter, while the great triumvirate, C. Hubert, B. Hubert and Wade played great ball in the back-field. Zuber used much wisdom in running his team fast and hurling his mighty backs repeatedly against old Athens' sturdy sons so fast that they quickly succumbed to the on-slaughter. This is Wade's first game and he made a remarkable showing in the back-field. They played thirty-minute halves. The weather was ideal and the crowd medium. A. B. C. 54. Athens 0. *** FOOT BALL PROSPECTS AT BRADLEY ACADEMY. Special to the crowd Murfreesboro, Tenn., October 17—Though this is the first year of the existence of the Bradley Academy football team, yet the prospects for a winning team are very mattering. Coach Brady, played right-tackle for the Walden Cubs team last season. The whole team is hard at work. Every afternoon a squad of twenty men is out working hard for a place on the 1998 team. Most of the material is green, but is fast rounding into shape under coach Brady's careful coaching and training. Miller at center is a valuable man who will do much to strengthen and balance the line. He is swift both on offence and defence at guards. Alexander and Burke are the two most likely candidate. Williams will push Burke for left-guard. Alexander is a tower of strength to the team. He strips pretty close to 170 and will certainly cause trouble to some prep school line this season. Sublett and Smith will be stationed at the two tackles. W. L. Alexander will be used alternately all the season. Thompson and Watkins will look after the two ends; they are very fast and sure as you will find in prep circles. For quarter back there are three candidates: Woods, Howse and Lvltle. Woods seems to have it on the rest as he is a little swifter. They will alternate during the season. The back-field is composed of Jordan and Harrison at halves and Brown at full. Before the season is over Jordan will be one of the best prep halves in the South. The team will average 135 pounds * * * Meharry is coming in what can be heard from all sides, and from what can be learned she is going to have a mighty strong team, despite the fact that quite a number of last year's men have gone out. They expect to develop new men who can fill the places left vacant. There seems to be any amount of material on hand and we think coach Dobson will get the best results. There are quite a number of new men who are showing up well in practice, and there will be a lively struggle for places on the 'varsity. The rumor concerning Howard coming to Nashville has been settled and the D. C. college will not play here this season unless the unexpected happens. That the game would be a record breaker is a foregone conclusion as both schools are of high standing and always have good teams. The public would be proud of a chance to see the two teams in action and their real strength put to test. Here is hoping that they will get together. Fisk second team and Pearl High crossed swords on Bennett Field Saturday and Fisk won 5—0. The game was hard fought and Fisk deserved to win, having worked the ball up the field by hard football and there by a clever forward pass and a run just off tackle managed to get the ball over for a touchdown. The goal was missed and the score stood Fisk 5, Pearl 0. The game was a fine one and was well played. Pearl put up a splendid game considering that she was outplayed. They were fast and fought hard all the time. The playing of Hurt and Davis was good. The ends were good but the tackles were a little slow in getting to their men, yet the team will beat anything in its class. They were slightly outclassed Saturday. For Fisk, Rosenburg and Sublett were the ground gainers, while Cooper and Clark played good ball. The line held well, but some improvement could be made along that line. The game was fast considering the weather. The crowd was good. For Pearl, Leach, Davis and Hurt played a fine game and at times were very brilliant. Line up. Upshaw ..... L. E.

The club enjoyed a brilliant opening and Mrs. Griggs made a charming hostess. This club is one of the many clubs organized in Nashville that continues to live happily for so many years. In November the club will enjoy its eighth birthday. Quite a number of members were present at the opening meeting, viz., Mesdames Bostic, Cameron, Hadley, Harris, Hart, Price, Townsend. Singleton and Griggs. Mrs. Simmons, of Muskogee, Okla., was the only guest of honor. The business of the hour was the election of officers for the ensuing year, which resulted as follows: Mrs. L. H. Lewis, President; Mrs. C. O. Hadlev, Vice President; Mrs. Arthur Price, Secretary; Mrs. J. West Bostick, Treasurer; Mrs. S. P. Harris, Querist. A nice two-course repast was served and at dust the laidies departed for their homes. The next meeting will be with Mrs. W. R. Baker, on the first Thursday in November. PRACTICAL JOKE ENDS IN TRAG EDY. Humboldt. Tenn.—A boy named Everett Wilson was badly burned on the body near the grounds of the Humboldt nurseries Wednesday morning, and will die from the effects. The boy was working at the nursery tying trees into bunches, and had a large bunch of tarred strings attached to his waist, which strings he was using in bundling the trees. Another boy who was working with Wilson mischievously lighted a match and held it to the strings, which suddenly burst Smallest Weekly Payments Now is the time to buy.

Louise was always cheerful; she always carried a ray of sunshine and light with her. She was of the Baptist faith, and was faithful until death. She left a mother, two sisters, four brothers and one daughter. DR. CLARK AT CHATTANOOGA. Dr. C. H. Clark, of Mount Olive Baptist Church, conducted a rally for the pastor of St. James Baptist Church, Chattanooga, last Sunday. The amount raised was upwards of $558, which in these times is considered a large sum. The pastor of St. James, Rev. E. W. Moore, who was recently called from Alabama to the pastorate of the church at Chattanooga, is wide-awake in all denominal work. PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CLUB. The Phyllis Wheatley Club will meet with Mrs. J.
