THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. SPLIT INTO THREE FACTIONS. WHITES AND BLACKS IN SPRING FIELD IN BIG FUSS. Illinois Capital Draws the Color Line. DO NOT WANT NEGROES TO CEL EBRATE ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY WITH THEM—HAM WILL HAVE TO ARRANGE HIS OWN BANQUET — ANOTHER SPLIT IN RANKS OF WHITES— FALL OUT OVER LIQUOR QUEST TION—PROHIS AND ANTIS AT SWORDS' POINTS — NEGROES GOING ALONG IN EVEN TENOR OF WAY. Springfield, Ill., Feb. 3, 1909.—Unless the more sober-minded and better thinking white citizens of this, the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, intervene and take charge of the proposed Centennial that is to be held here in honor of the lamented Abolitionist, Statesman, and Martyred President, Abraham Lincoln, the whole thing may prove a disgrace to the city so far as the whites are concerned. Springfield has already undergone one of the most shameful and outrageous acts ever witnessed by an Illinois town, one that will forever mar the fair name of the birthplace of the Great Lincoln, and yet there seems to be three contesting factions among the whites, in the proposed celebration, of the Lincoln Centennial. Expressions have been made here that when the very first announcement was made that the city would celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary there arose an anti-Negro faction, a party opposed to Negro taking part in the public celebration. But this was to be expected. It was looked for, especially when it is remembered that the newspapers and magazines have not yet accepted to discuss the disgraceful riot of some months ago, hence the Negroes, the better class, that element that stands for the thrifty and intellectual part of the Negro population, had prepared to properly observe the one hundredth birthday of the great emancipator. Now that the whites were united long enough to force this shameful discrimination, which is proving a blessing in disguise, it is reported that they have fallen out among themselves. No Negroes, however, are in a position to get any facts in the case as they are not admitted into the counsels of the warring factions; but rumor, which by the way has reached the associated press dispatches, has it that a strong prohibition faction is vigorously opposing the use of wine at the banquet to be held by the whites of this city. Much discussion has been indulged in and today it is said that there is likely to be two banquets and two celebrations among the whites with indications of a third. Some are claiming that Lincoln was a prohibitionist, and others that he was not a teetotaler. Yet the factions are creating a shameful scene by injecting first the Negro problem and second, the prohibition question. The most disgraceful part, according to the well-informed citizens, is the total disregard of the Negro for whom the late Mr. Lincoln took the boldest steps, in the interest of, when he issued his famous Emancipation Proclamation. But the Negroes are not worrying over the situation. They are, to a man, quietly yet deliberately planning to give reverence and honor to the name that is dear to them. They will show to their posterity that while enjoying freedom which was given them by the party of which Lincoln was the head, they are not ungrateful and are able to shut their eyes to all discrimination, since it does not interfere with their right to enjoy the liberty granted by the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation and the three Amendments to the Constitution advocated and passed by the leaders of the party of which the Rail-splitter was the ideal. Summing up up the situation with regard to the coming one hundredth birthday of Illinois' greatest son, a day which has been set apart as a national holiday, Springfield, it looks, will have the fol NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY, 5 1909 lowing factions: anti-Negro participants, pro-Negro participants, prohibitionists make up the anti-Negro, while another part forms and works with the pro-Negro. Hence, with the Negro celebration it looks much to-day as if there will be one Negro and two white banquets commemorating the one hundredth anniversary in this city. THE A. M. E. MINISTERS' UNION. The A. M. E. Ministers' Union met in the office of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, Nashville, Tenn., February 2, 1909, 10 a. m., Rev. W. C. Henderson acting President pro tem, Chaplin, Rev. A. Brooks, announced hymn "Must Jesus bear the cross alone," which was sweetly sung. Invocation by Rev. R. U. Ferguson; after which the Chaplin, Rev. Brooks, led the song "Blessed Assurance." Scripture lesson, Acts. 5:1-21, was read in concert, and the same was discussed by Revs. Haigler, A. Brooks, Henderson and Graves. The work of the Holy Ghost and the work and power of the devil were discussed at length. All agreed that it was Satan who entered into the thoughts of Ananias and Sapphira, caused them to lie, and keep back part of the price of the land. And that there are people in the church to-day who are lying and deceiving just as this man and woman did in the early part of the Christian era, and that it is better to tell the truth, and live honest and virtuous lives.

Mrs. Katie Norton, of 1217 Eleventh avenue, North, entertained her Sunday-school class with a party for having the honor of carrying the banner, Friday, January 22. Owing to the inclement weather only one half of the little folks were able to attend. Several old-fashioned games were played. At six o'clock a two-course menu was served, after which the young people thanked Mrs. Norton for her hospitality and departed for their homes. Those present were: Little Misses Sona Dodson, Mattie Evans, Bessie Taylor, Eva Phillips, Pearlie Jones, Ollie Bryant, Mattie Wilson, Rebecca Summers, Bertha Ellis; Messrs Fred Dodson, Simon Davis, Eddie Bluing, Jesse White, O. D. Wilson, Rosa May Short. CHRYSANTHEMUM ART CLUB. The Chrysanthemum Art Club held its regular meeting at the home of Mrs. Susie L. Carter, 918 Jackson street. The meeting was called to order by the president; Mrs. Carter sang and prayed and the club began its work. Most members brought in some very pretty pieces of fancy work. After an hour's work the club was served, the menu consisting of chicken salad, crackers, boiled custard and cake. The club adjourned to meet with Mrs. Settles, 1027 Eighth avenue, North. TENNESSEE AID ASSOCIATION. The Tennessee Aid Association held its first installation Tuesday, February 2, 1909, at its headquarters on Fourth avenue, North. The following officers were installed: Jas. Bumpnous, President; H. A. Cameron, Secretary; Dr. S. S. Caruthers, Treasurer; Mrs. Anna T. Jackson, Chairman of Sick Committee. The president delivered a very interesting address along the lines of benevolence. After the reading of the various reports Prof. G. E. Washington spoke briefly concerning the good of the Order. Light refreshments were served. First of its Kind Put In Operation. CHARTERED WITH CAPITAL STOCK OF $25,000 — NEARLY SEVENTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS PAID IN — INDIANOLA, MISS., HEADQUARTERS—W. W. COX, BANKER AND PROMOTER, PRIME MOVER—OTHER PROMINENT BUSINESS MEN CONNECTED WITH PROJECT—WILL WRITE POLICIES FOR AMOUNTS ROM $500 TO $10,00. With a $25,000 charter and $16,700 already paid in, in cash, the National Sick and Accident Insurance Company, with headquarters at Indianola, Miss., has the distinction of being one among the first complete life insurance companies with a real life insurance charter in the United States. There are quite a number of industrial insurance concerns and fraternal insurance organizations doing business in many of the Southern states, but there has not been, as yet, any absolutely high-class life insurance company before chartered. Thus Mississippi, and particularly the historic and noted city of Indianola, furnishes a big asset to the already increased business activity in the State of Mississippi. The plan which the insurance company will operate will be practically that of standard or old-line life insurance companies, affording the same protection. While they will not write policies for over $10,000 at present, they promise to give the most farreaching protection and insurance features. The State of Mississippi, before granting the charter, demanded a deposit of $16,700, which was immediately made. The company will not open for business before some time in April, and by this time they propose to put up $8,300 more as a further guarantee. No effort has been made to keep any member of the race from being identified with this movement. One of the prime movers of the company is the noted bank promoter, W. W. Cox, who is interested in three banks in the State of Mississippi and is prominent in Odd Fellow and Masonic circles. In speaking to your correspondent on the matter Mr. Cox said, "We have put the stock of the insurance company on the market at $100 per share in order that our people may have an opportunity to come into a safe investment. Yet the company is not now entirely dependent upon the sale of any more stock to outsiders, as we arranged that matter before applying for a charter. You can say that we will write as good a policy, backed up by as strong a company as any in the Southland. Of course, our operations for the first years will be confined to policies ranging from $500 to $10,000." "No, we don't expect to write many $10,000 policies," was his reply in response to a question on the subject. "The majority of our policies will be the size of those generally written by companies for our people from $500 to $2,000. The Negroes of this state have shown by their advanced business attention, with respect to mercantile business, banks, farming, and in fact, all business pursuits, that they really are advancing. A good part of this city alone is owned by the Negroes. This insurance company promises to give employment to a vast number of agents and clerks, as it will have branch offices in most of the leading cities in the State of Mississippi, which has, in suite of what has been said of her attitude toward the members of the race, granted this charter." MISSES COCKRILL ENTERTAIN. On last Friday evening Misses Cockrill entertained at their residence 123 Maple street, a limited number of friends. Those to enjoy the occasion were: Misses Estella Campbell, Pearl Watson, Bessie Rooney, Buelah Roundtree, Westelle Burns, Tennie May and Hattie Perkins; Messrs A. L. Taylor, J. W. Ramsey, A. L. Trapp, F. N. Harris, G. R. Peters, C. S. Carr, L. Gilmore, L. W. Bomar, G. W. White, J. C. Wilhite, McRuffin, Hickman, A. L. Saunders, F. W. Dawson, McDew, OBryant, Kennedy and J. C. Cockrill Jr. Music and dancing were the main features of the evening. NEGRO DOLLS DISPLACE WHITE ONES. In a special letter dated from Ocala, Fla., Jan. 23rd, the information reached Nashville that a thorough canvass of the state of Florida was convincing all that Negro dolls would be used exclusively among the Negroes in the peninsula state from now on. Much interest has been created in the state of Florida on the Negro doll question from the fact that at least one half dozen bazaars were held during the month of December, one being on new year's day. Then, too, two very active women have been at work crystallizing sentiment in favor of the doll idea. One of them is Mrs. Janie Morris, of Miami, Fla., who is a prominent church worker, a woman who is acquainted with national affairs. It is learned that she alone sent in orders for nearly $100.00 worth of dolls during the holidays. The other is in the person of Miss E. B. Delaney, the returned missionary from Africa, a very cultured woman, a graduate of one of the best schools in the south. Miss Delaney was in Nashville just before the holidays en route to Washington, D. C. While here she placed a third order for the Negro dolls, and they were shipped to Florida. Since her return to her home she has gone over the state visiting the principal points. She writes emphatically, "The people this side are frantic over the Negro dolls and from the outlook there will not be much sale for the white dolls." Miss Delaney is very conservative and can scarcely be induced to make a statement until she is positively convinced of the facts in the case. The National Negro Doll Company of this city acknowledges that although the holidays are over, there is a constant demand from many sections of the United States for the dolls. They are shipping them every week to the various parts of the United States, they state they are prepared to fill any order immediately, which is encouraging and which says much for Nashville's new enterprise. Thousands of people throughout the country will be glad to know that they can now secure dolls for their children. If a child reives a doll now it possibly means the "Saving of the best wine for the last." Its joy will be all the more because of the distance from the holidays. PAYNE CHAPEL CHOIR ENTER TAINS The Payne Chapel choir led by Mr. G. W. Grady, chorister, and Miss Sarah E. Flagg, organisa, was very pleasantly entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, of Smiley street, Wednesday evening, January 27th. After the choir had gone over their practice of solos, duets, quartetts and choruses they were deliciously served with ice cakes. The choir unanimously thanks Mr. and Mrs. Bailey for their generosity. The Ladies' Aid and Missionary Society, of the First Baptist Church, met in the home of Mrs. L. Fort on Sixteenth avenue, North, Monday at 3:30 p. m., January 25th. After the routine of business a short program consisting of songs and short talks was rendered by the members. Little Katie C. Hunt only four years old sang the song "School Days". Mrs. W. S. Ellington presided at the piano. The society was served with refreshments and dismissed to meet with Mrs. A. B. Berry on Thirteenth avenue, North, Monday, February 1, 1909. Mrs. Gene Williams Secretary. The members and friends of Payne's Chapel were entertained Monday evening at the Mid Winter Picnic, given by the Young Men's Christian Band in the lower auditorium of the church which was artistically decorated. These young men are doing quite a deal of work toward the upbuilding of Christianity. GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN. GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN. Whereas, It has pleased the Almighty Lord to take from our midst our beloved friend, Mrs. Lula J. Webster, whom we all loved so dearly—she the flower of her family, be it, Resolved. That we mourn her loss, believing that the Lord doth all things well and that our loss is heaven's gain. She denoted this life January 24, 1909. We have lost a loving neighbor and friend. Mrs. Annie E. Robinson. Miss Ophelia G. Rivers. No. 5 NIGHT SCHOOL BIG SUCCESS. HADLEY BUILDING OPENED MONDAY, FEBRUARY I. Every Seat on Second Floor Filled Second Night. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-TWO AT FIRST SESSION—NEARLY TWO HUNDRED REGISTER TUESDAY NIGHT — SEVEN TEACHERS REQUIRED TO DO THE WORK — ALL OVER TWELVE YEARS OLD ARE ELIGIBLE—MANY AVAILING THEM-SELVES OF THE SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY—OTHERS MAY BE OPENED. On Monday night, February 1, the doors of the Hadley School were thrown open to those who desire to obtain a common education, but who are prevented by some course from attending the day school, and much to the satisfaction of all concerned the attendance at the first session was sufficient guarantee that the undertaking would be a success. At the hour of 7 o'clock, when Principal Benton threw open the doors for the reception of students one hundred fifty-two anxious seekers for knowledge stared him in the face. They were welcome visitors and were all invited in to partake of what makes men wise according to the teachings of Holy Writ. The principal and seven teachers set about to arrange the pupils and assign them to the different grades which range from the first to the eighth. It reminded one of the days immediately after the close of the great Civil War, when the men and women of sixty sat side by side with the boys and girls of ten, and grappled with the same problems and endeavored to spell the same words. True the Negro has greatly reduced his illiteracy since that time, and while many, in fact, too many boys and girls throw away the opportunities afforded them to secure a common school education, there are thousands who by dent of circumstances are deprived of the same, and who will gladly avail themselves of the privilege they have at the night school. On Tuesday night the number of pupils increased to one hundred and ninety-six, and by Wednesday night the principal was compelled to assign some to the first floor. Superintendent Weber in talking to a Globe representative said that the results so far had been very satisfactory. When asked if other night schools would be established he said if this one was a success he would of a certainty recommend that others be established. He said they would not be opened this school term, as only about two months remain for the night school, but if conditions warranted he saw no reason why more should not be opened the next school year in localities where the most good could be done. The efforts of the Board of Education to provide school facilities for the working classes are appreciated as evidenced by the great number of earnest students who have availed themselves of this opportunity. ELECTION. The Pythian Hall Association held its annual election on last Friday night, January 29th 1909, and the following officers were elected: S. P. Harris, President; S. F. Peyton, Vice President; J. Thomas Turner, Secretary; A. W. Gleaves, Treasurer. House Committee—A. W. Fite, M. V. Cole and Wm. Bramlett.

Selected Banquet. Perhaps no more agreeable festivity was ever given in Chicago among the colored people. There were there present the very highest representatives of the race in every calling of Negro life. It was a feast of reason and a flow of soul. The race must learn that gatherings of such well-mean nature do not include the caterer necessarily. It was not a banquet; it was a celebration of the twenty-five years of one indissoluable union of two good helpmeets, whose happiness and hopes blend with the well wishes of a host of friends who came to pay them reverence. The ladies of Chicago attired themselves gorgeously; the gentlemen were just as gallant and exuberant as they ever are, and all went as happily as a marriage sure enough. Bishop and Mrs. Parks represent the highest type of the race, and they have two elegant young ladies to bless their married life. The presents from friends were many and costly.

The book this year contains over four hundred pages and is easily the superior of any of its predecessors. The book is in its fifth volume, and it seems that the Baptist Publishing Board doubled its energy this year in its effort to make this book just what the Sunday-school superintendent, teachers and advanced scholars need, a complete, suggestive, illustrative and comprehensive Commentary on the Sunday-school lessons. Not only this, but it is evident that the book is of invaluable service to the ministers of the Gospel. It has been used more than once to aid in the preparation of sermons because of the facts and the extra amount of biblical research to be found within its pages. The book contains a preface, an article on Sunday-school Methods; an introduction for each quarter and an introduction for every lesson, together with the Exposition. Following these there come "Truths Gleaned from the Lesson," "Hints for the Primary Teachers," and an array of questions upon each lesson. There are three beautifully colored maps showing Paul's journeys. Nearly every lesson for the year is illustrated. Attention is at once attracted to a particular lesson in next year, the one which comes on March 7, subject: "Philip and the Ethiopian," which is illustrated on page 82, showing Philip and the Ethiopian eunich as they ride in a chariot drawn by two horses. One almost sees the Ethiopian pointing to the water and asking why he cannot be baptized. This is the first time that Nero publishers have attempted to portray in their Sunday-school lessons the Ethiopian in a dark skin. This book has for its editor, Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., LL, D., and as associate editor, Rev. W. S. Ellington, B. A., D. D. They seem to have wonderfully outstripped the times and have evidently commended themselves to the Sunday-school. COLORED TEACHERS WANTED FOR SCHOOLS IN ALL PARTS OF THE UNITED STATES. TO ALL OF OUR READERS. An Open Statement That Will Inter-terest Each Subscriber of the Nashville Globe. In entering upon our fourth anniversary, the Nashville Globe wants to call the attention of some of its readers to some very startling facts. The first and possibly the most important of these is that the Globe is the leading secular paper published by the race in the state of Tennessee; the Globe has been published and mailed every week during 1908, in fact, they never have missed an issue since it has appeared on the horizon as a weekly journal. There is not a better and more newsy weekly journal offered to the reading public at the prices of the Globe. We have not annoyed any of our subscribers about paying their subscriptions. In fact, three-fourths of the time we have not engaged the service of a collector. We have believed all along and we believe now that the readers of the Nashville Globe represent such a high type of reading people that they have resolved among their other new year's resolution, if they made any, to pay for the time they have been reading the Globe as that would be fair and just, and to send in their subscription for 1909. Those who have not made such resolutions will do so any way because they represent an important factor in the life of any journal.

Many thoughtful and beneficial suggestions were presented and all things point to a brignt outlook for 1909. The club turned over a new leaf the first meeting in the year and is still growing numerically and unancially under these conditions. ‘The club through the columns of the Globe desires that all members that have been absent a great deal and who have not seen any of the club members recently would attend the meetings. Some very important busi- ness confronts those who desire to be called members and don't attend regularly. The next meeting will be at the home of Mr. A. R, Stockard, 1611 State street.

AN EDITORIAL JOKE. Nashville American is a huge joke on that paper: : A. NEEDLESS COMMISSION Foraker has at last made Roosevelt agree to a bill providing for a com- mission to pass on the re-enlistment of the negro soldiers who “shot up” Brownsville, Tex. It was all right to’ agree to a commission, but the com- mission should be created for the pur- pose of seeing that i.aese crazy revo- lutionary, murdering soldiers were shot. Here were a lot of men, sworn in as soldiers of the United States Army, and yet they shoot and terrorize the citizens of the army post to which they are sent for the purpose of pro- tecting the post. They should have been shot. That, at least, would have decided the question of re-enlist- ment ; If this piece of twaddle is not a joke, then it is the meanest piece of pure “cussedness” that ever appeared in the columns of a public journal: whose legitimate mission is to record the current news and give expression to such opinion as tends to the general welfare. But if we remember correct- ly, it has not been many moons since this same great, glorious and all-puis- sant vehicle of news said in another connection in substance that certain alleged culprits should be hanged and afterwards find the law justifying it. At the time it spewed out that joke the other two daily papers of the city hopped on it with both feet. It tried for several issues to reply, but it was noticeable that each successive effort grew less and less until it fizzled into a searce audible “mum” and then into| nothingness. Its contemporaries had belabored it into an inglorious silence, It dueked and dodged and tried to side- step but to no purpose, they found the dreamy spot, the solar plexus, and Planted there a hard jolt and the de- fender of “hang first and find the law afterward” took the count. Yes, Foraker steadily drove Roose-| velt from one position of his absolute proof or evidence to another, until he had neither evidence, proof nor make- shift. No Southern paper should com- plain of the outcome of that “Browns- ville mess,” for Mr. Roosevelt did all in his power to fasten that crime on the black men, ‘They were innocent— and he failed. No mortal outside the torrid region of sheol ever tried hard- er to accomplish any one thing than he did to involve those men, It is easy to understand the posi- tion of any Southern paper that in- dulges in such extravagant language. It knows that any thing it says about or advises to be done to the Negro is THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1909. O. K. with a large element that fat- tens on such poison. But God bless the thought based upon the firm be- lief that there is another large ele- ment too chivalrous, too humane and too lofty to subseribe to language that breathes out such suggestions for wholesale murder. 6 SRSA EERE SO USN SEEEPENE IN Ee Representative Rainey, of Ilinois, made a forceful speech in the House last week in support of his resolution concerning the Panama Canal deal. It does seem that the President is go- ing to be given a dose of the investi- gation medicine that he has been so strenuous in portioning out and mak- ing others gulp down. With the voice of Stentor he has cried out, “Investi- gate! investigate!” and now the peo- ple, through their representatives, are rolling back the echo of that cry in tones as loud, “Investigate! investi- gate!” The President meant the in- vestigation of the other fellow; the people mean the investigation of him —or rather the things he has been doing outside the limit of his authori- ty and prerogatives as President. It| is a case of the verification of the old Grecian proverb—his chickens are coming back home to roost. There is now no fear of the “big stick” in terror of which all cringed and kept silent till now, save the re- doubtable defender of the rights of those who could not defend them- selves. He alone offered opposition to the wielder of the dreaded club, The time now is when there are none too timid to flaunt the red flag of defiance in the fice of the once mighty and “strenuous one.” The Pulitzers, Wil- lets and Raineys are legion. When our puissant President on the fourth of March steps to the front of the stage, makes his bow and the curtain falls on his last act, he will return to ordinary citizenship. the most wholesomely disliked of all the Nation’s chiefs. For he has done and left undone some things which he should not. We take this saying, a nugget of gold, from the almost for- gotten and dust-covered lore of the past and quote it for the purpose of application or comparison: “Time, my lord, has a wallet on his back wherein he puts alms for oblivion,” but the President has a wallet on his back wherein he will put Browne and Bald- win, the detectives, and his discharge. without-honor order as a remembrance of the gravest mistake of his adminis- tration—an unwarranted and willful blunder that will haunt his conscience while he lives and leave a blot upon his memory when he is dead. Had not our mighty ruler been flirting with Southern sentiment he would not have attempted to throttle justice by setting aside constitutional rights. BILLS FOR NORMAL SCHOOLS. Three bills have been introduced in the General Assembly of Tennessee Providing for the establishment of a Normal School for Negroes. The pur- pose of this school as set forth in each of these bills is to provide for the normal training of Negro teachers to teach in the schools of the State. The necessity for such a school has long been apparent, and its realization, it is hoped, will be assured by the passage of one of these bills. While neither bill includes all the people want, yet that could be provided for by and under the same approprjation and what will materialize from other sources. If their influence or suggestion, through their representatives, will have any weight or bearing with the General Assembly in its consideration of this measure, the bill will be amended so as to add to the normal an agricul- tural and a mechanical department, making the institution a Normal, Ag- ricultural and Mechanical College or School for Negroes. The Normal, Agricultural and Me- chanical College Association, com- posed of prominent Negro citizens of the State, was organized for the speci- fic purpose of presenting the claims of their people to the law-makers for an institution whose curriculum would embrace agricultural and mechanical training. Already there are many in- stitutions for higher education, such as Roger Williams, Walden and Fisk, of this city; Howe Institute, Memphis; Knoxville College, Knoxville; Morris- town College, Morristown; Lane Col- lege, Jackson, and others. Having these, the people's most crying need is a State supported school that will furnish industrial training, It is hoped that State Superintend- ent of Education Jones will use his influence toward the securing of a school, which of course, will be under his supervision, that will have the industrial features so much desired by the Negro people. This is said be cause he, as well as Governor Patter- Son, said some commendable things about industrial education for the Ne gro in an address recently delivered at Fisk University, where about sev- enty-five members of the Legislature which had been invited were enter- tained with a program of songs, musi- cal recitals and readings specially pre- pared for the occasion. As one of the bills provides for four. normal schools, three for whites, one in each division of the State—Hast, Middle and WestTennessee—to be lo. cated as centrally as possible with health conditions and financial sup- port as important considerations, and one for Negroes to be located some- where in Middle or West Tennessee. But in determining the location for the Negro school suggestions from those hepresenting the interest of the Negro people should have consideration with the authorities. Another bill pro- vides for the school to be located some- where between this city and Chatta- nooga vn the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad. It is our opinion that the Legisla- ture is going to act reasonably fair in providing a creditable normal and training school for Negroes in which they will not only be prepared for teaching the literary branches but other useful industrial arts, There seems to be opposition in some quarters to the Swab election bill, be- cause it is said that it will allow eighty-five per cent of the Negroes to vote. Under the Constitution of the United States, have they not a right to vote? One hundred per cent of the electors of other races, without any qualifying conditions, are allowed the privilege of the elective — franchise, then why should there be any objec- tion to only eighty-five per cent of the Negroes casting their votes? i Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, of Wash: ington, D. C., who is to lecture at the Meharry Auditorium Walden Univer- sity to-night, is one of the gifted wom- en of the race. The work of such wom- en, in connection with that which is be- ing done by the men who are seriously engaged in race ‘building, cannot be over-estimated. She doubtless will be the recipient: of that honor and hospi- tality while here that will often make her heart turn back to Dixie, Dr. Crum has. been appointed again as Collector of the Port of Charleston. Tillman is going to resort to filibuster- ing tactics to keep the Senate from act- ing upon the appointment until Con- gress adjourns on the fourth of March. ‘Tillman is feeble in health, but he is: going to make a heroic effort to hold out and talk the Crum appointment to: death. This is the Tillman of Oregon- land-deal fame. The defense for that multifarious murderer, Bill Latura, who shot and killed four Negroes in Memphis some months ago, is that he is a paranolac: Whatever paranoiac may mean we care not, but we do know that he is a high- handed murderer responsible then as now for his crime.

Vardaman started around the ta- ble, when Rowland picked up a paper weight and said; “Come on, I'm ready for you.” Gov. Noel and Superintendent of Education Powers interfered and suc- ceeded in restoring peace. Of course, no one can think of the great Vardaman having an itching palm. But Director of Archives, Row- land, it appears, thinks so. One thing ‘though is certain, Vardaman - cannot give up the seventeen hundred dollars and have them, too. Something is 80 ing to catch any man who hates h: fellowman for no other reason than the color of his skin. t JADECEE. tee SUNSHINE HOME NOTES, The Christian Workers’ Foreign Missionary Society held its regular monthly sneha 26. It was @ very interesting one. Owing to the illness of Miss Gustasson, who was to have addressed the Society, she was not present. Rev. M. Shrene, of the Pentecostal Mission, who expects to sail for Africa this year, gave a very impressive lecture on Foreign Missions. He impressed the audience ‘with the thought that it is the indis- pensable duty of the Christian Church to send the gospel to those who have never heard it. He gave a very vivid picture of the condition of the heath- en, and showed why and how we could best reach and help them. Dr, H. T. Noel was among the large number present, and gave a very time- ly and encouraging talk. The Workers’ Conference will hold its regular monthly meeting Monday, February 8th, from 10 to.12 a, m. »Alb are cordially invited ‘to be present. Notwithstanding the extremely cold weather quite a large number of pu- pils. were present at our mission Sun- day-school. The Wednesday afternoon prayer services still go on. The meetings are yery helpful. We hope our friends will "make a great effort to be present with us. Meeting opens at 3:30 p.m. ‘ Sister Moore is still in Chicago, she has not been well this winter. (We ask the prayers. of her many, friends in her behalf. Miss B. B, Delaney is expected in this city soon en route for Little Rock, Ark., where she will hold meet- ings. TO STOP IMPOSTORS. There have been several people go- ing over the State posing as represent: atives of the Women’s Baptist State Convention. So Mrs. M. EB. Hamilton has issued the following: “Intelligence has reached me through the mail that another person, save our authorized representative, is representing herself to be State Or- ganizer of the Baptist Woman’s Mis- sionary and Educational Societies in Tennessee. Hence I write to assert officially that Mrs. V. W. Broughton as Corresponding Secretary of our state work, by virtue of her office, according to Article VII of Constitu- tion, is the only authorized agent to develop our state work.” Respectfully, M. -E. Hamilton, President of Woman's Convention, Auxillary to Tennessee Baptist State Convention. eA K. OF P. STATE MINUTES. ‘The Globe is in receipt of a beauti- ful and useful bound copy of the K. P.

Like most Negro banking concerns principally located in the South, the Delta Penny Savings Bank, of Indian‘ ola, Miss., declared an annual dividend on their paid-up capital stock at a re- cent meeting held to which the officers for the ensuing year and the same board of directors were reelected. The dividend deciared was 16 per cent; 10 per cent of this amount was sent out in checks to the stockholders, 6 per cent was passed over to the sur- plus fund. The cashier of the bank, Mr. W. W. Cox, states that the affairs of the institution are in a most. pros- perous condition. The personnel of the officers for 190918. ‘ag follows: W. -W. Attaway, President; W.

One of the: prominent business con- cerns in Nashyille, received a postal card dated January 22d from: one Mt L. Harris who-is @ student at Corn University located at Tthaca, N. ¥. This postcard was addressed’ to the National Baptist Publishing. Board and contained the following: s “At this place is Cornell University with four thousand students carrying home facts seen and heard. I want copies of periodicals, newspapers, ete, that they may see the Negro as a business man, especially the Southern Negro. Send calendars, notes, book- lets, school material, just a copy, Ne- gro dolls, in fact, send us a line of your publications. These will be Scattered far and wide and will-ald you. It will let the student world see us, especially the Southern Negro as a cosmopolite and composite charac- ter, Will you kindly tell others so that I may have an array. Don't cast this aside, but lend me your ear as well as-your heart. It will-cost but little. The first week in April. these will be seen in our church parlors. “Yours, “C, L, HARRIS, “1118 Cleveland avenue, Ithaca, N. Y.” In reply to this, Secretary Boyd sent copies of the Sunday-school periodi- cals, a copy of the National Baptist Union, and such other publications as could be easily sent through the mafls, (The Globe sent a copy of “The Great jer Nashville Edition.”) “It is re- markable,” said the secretary in speak- ‘ing of the matter, “how little the Ne gro Knows about one another in the North, Some of them have an idea peat every Negro in the South is-being lynched or is densely ignorant.” He further suggested that the other pub- lishers should send a copy of. their publications to be put on exhibition. LADIES’ AUXILIARY OF ST. JOHN. Friday afternoon, January 22, 1909, at the residence of Mrs. Alice be Grae of Patterson street, this band of loyal workers assembled and quite an en- Joyable afternoon was spent. Madame B.C. Coffey, the president, called the meeting to order, The meeting was opened with song “Pass me not.” Scripture reading by Rey, A. Brooks; song “I must tell Jesus”; next was the reading of previous “minutes, after which the following program was ren- dered: A paper by Miss Effie Blanche Hadley, “Only a working girl”;an in- Strumental solo by Mis sMay Julla Wright; paper by Miss Addie Luckett, “The Lost Bible”; instrumental solo by Miss Sarah Hightower, The in- strumental solo rendered by Miss Hightower was a beautiful selection and-was well rendered by this accom- plished musician. The various camps reported $11.52. The next in order was the election of officers for the ensuing year which resulted as fol- lows: Mrs. B. C. Coffey, President by acclamation; Vice-President, Mrs, Hat- tie Hightower, Sec.; Miss Lizzie Dick. erson; Assistant Secretary, Miss M. B. Topp; Treasurer, Mrs. Lizzie Jackson. The executive board was elected by acclamation for another year. Rev, A. Brooks made brief remarks and the Auxiliary sang the closing piece. The hostess, Mrs, A. Wright, then served a two-course menu: chicken salad on lettuce, beaten biscuits, potato chips and sweet pickle, chocolate, spice and white cakes. The visitors — present were: Madames W. S. Brooks, Jno. Adams, J. C. Thomas, M. A. Saunders, D. A. Hart and little Misses Winnie C. and Dayton A. Hart, Madames Robert Wingfield and Stephenson, and Miss Ella Kennedy, of Columbia. ST. LUKE'S BANK, ‘There was no surprise when at the annual stockholder’s meeting of the St. Luke Penny Savings Bank, Rich- mond, Va, Emmet 0, Burke, Cashier, handed around the dividend checks for all paid-up capital stock, because the directors had already declared a 10 per cent dividend at a meeting held prior to the stockholder’s meeting, says a Richmond correspondent to the Globe. The checks were all written and to those stockholders not present they were authorized to mail the checks out. Mrs. Maggie Walker, President of the Bank, still occupies her unique po- sition, being the first and only woman president of a banking concern in the United States. The report for 1908 will show an increased volume of busi- ness over the preceding years. There is no change in the officers or directors for 1909. aes ANNUAL BANQUET. Monday night, February 15, 1909, the Railway Protective Association will give their afnual banquet at the headquarters and hall, Tenth ave- nue, North, and Cedar street.

Articles in newspapers published at Nashville, with headlines "Tennessee Going Dry," were read last week by the citizens of this place with equanimity. Clarksville's dryness is made moist many a time a day through the agency of railroads and express companies, and no doubt the same condition will be noticeable after the state-wide legislation is in effect. A few nights ago several persons of pronounced prohibition tendencies were on their way home, and like most men will do, began to chant melodious strains to the retiring moon, while that benign orb winked the other eye. This was the lay: "As long as the Kongo flows to the sea, As long as the leaves grow on the bamboo tree, Our love and devotion City of Clarksville is in the market to sell some $31,000 4 1-2 per cent bonds, known as the Water Works Refunding Bonds, in order to liquidate outstanding bonded debts due February 1, 1909. If the city can dispose of these securities at a premium, it will be a master stroke of financial diplomacy, while business both large and small are still feeling the pinch of the recent panic. It is to be hoped that the advertised sale will be a forecast of returning prosperity to this community. From every part of the city members of the Twentieth Century Lodge K. of P., were seen wending their way toward the Castle Hall last Tuesday night to witness the twelfth semi-annual installation ceremonies and to participate in the social side of the affair in shape of a banquet to the outgoing and incoming administrations. Ritualistic rites and installation services were said by Deputy Grand Chancellor Dr. C. A. Kelly, while the banquet proper was under direct supervision of Mr. Chas. Cobb. Informal remarks were made by members and visitors. The following officers were installed; Knight Josh Quarles, C. C.; Knight W. P. Irvine, V. C.; Knight P. J. Coleman, M. W.; Knight Chas. Hudson, Prelate; Knight Benj. Blakely, M. A.; Knight E. D. Roberts, K. R. and S.; Knight E. S. Randals, M. F.; Knight N. R. Kimbrough, M. E.; Knight Andrew Wilcox, I. G.; Knight Joe Cross, O. G. Never has Clarksville society entered upon a season's activity with such scant enthusiasm than has characterized the preliminaries to the 1909-10 season. Dullness of times, tobacco situation and state-wide agitation may in part be due to the tame beginning. While arrangements for a few coming events have been made, nothing of an elaborate measure is noted. The wedding of Charles Warfield and Miss Mary Harris last Wednesday at the home of the bride was quite an auspicious opening for the social season, and marked a pretty home affair. The ceremony was said by the Rev. Mr. Seymour, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Guthrie, Ky., Clarksville's next door neighbor, will in the near future vote whether saloons will be licensed or not. The election will have an interesting bearing upon Clarksville and the state of Tennessee, if the prohibitionists fail to carry the day. The Home Infirmary, under the direct supervision of Miss Bessie Patton, has been able to restore several persons to normal health. The Infirmary is quite an addition to Clarksville and sneaks well for the management. The physician in charge has the hearty support of all the professional men and women of the city. The friends of Dr. C. A. Kelly will be glad to know that he is able to be out again and resume his practice after several weeks' illness. Mr. Henry Randals spent several days in Nashville last week and was present at the reception, given at Fisk in honor of the Governor and members of the Legislature. Mr. Willie Clemens, for several years a teacher in the city schools, has resigned and left for Nashville last Friday evening. Last Monday evening at St. Peter's Church Iconoclastic League was organized. The following officers were elected: President, Mrs. C. H. Boone; Secretary, H. R. Merry; Treasurer, Miss Carrie Ballard; Vice President, Dr. Robt. T. Burt. The committee on program was as follows: Dr. S. Jefferson, Chairman; as associates: Misses Metcalfe, Firse, Shelton and Dixon. The membership of the league is about thirty and it is the intention to study parliamentary laws, current events, as well as act as aid to the various departments of the church. Dr. E. S. Randals spent several days in Nashville this week. Mrs. Louise Hunt, a very prominent member of the C. M. E. Church, and one who is loved by all who know her, went to the Home Infirmary and had a very serious operation last week. She is recovering very rapidly. The Twentieth Century Concert Band gave an entertainment at Buck's Hall last Monday night. FRANKLIN NOTES. Sunday was a very cold day here. Mrs. Florence Woods, Mrs. Tobitha Woldridge are on the sick list. Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Hughes are happy over the arrival of their new baby girl. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Ewing have moved to their home. Mr. Harvey Hughes and Mr. Henry Matthews spent Sunday in Franklin. Misses Martha B. Wolridge, Fannie Joe Woldridge, L. Voorhies and Nannie T. Wilkins spent last Sunday evening with Estella Brown. Mrs. Asberry Whitfield, who has been confined to her bed for sometime is better. Mr. John Lawrence and Mr. Lee Woodard, our popular tailors, are doing work here in Franklin. Rev. D. W. Binford, pastor of the A. M. E. Church, and Rev. Nelson, pastor of M. E. Church, had a joint rally last Sunday with good results. Rev. D. W. Binford preached for Rev. Nelson at 11 o'clock a. m., and Rev. Nelson preached for Rev. D. W. Binford at 7:30 p. m. They had a good crowd at each service. Rev. D. W. Binford was taken by surprise Saturday night when a couple came to his house to be made one. Rev. Binford at once set about and tied the knot. The couple was Mr. Morgan Fitzpatrick and Mrs. Cassie Davis, of this place. Times seem to be getting better in and around our city. The Globe has a wide circulation in Franklin, Tenn. BRIERSVILLE NOTES. Miss Bettie Walker entertained a limited number of friends last Saturday night, January 30, at a social Games were indulged in until a late hour when a four-course menu was served. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Webb, Miss Mattie Webb Mr. Joseph Fitzhugh, Mr. Porter Hayes, Mr. Leonard Hayes, Mr. Ed and George Pettis, Mr. Daniel Webb Mr. John Vinson, Mr. Earnest Noel, Miss Bettie Walker. Mrs. Frances Porter died last Monday, January 25. Mrs. Porter, though 71 years of age, was in considerably good health and was sitting in a chair talking with relatives when she fell from the chair to the floor and was picked up by her grandbaughter and placed on a couch where in a few moments she breathed her last. Mrs. Porter was a member of the M. E. Church of this place, where her funeral was largely attended on Wednesday, Revs. S. F. Harttsfield and W. S. G. Brown officiating. Mrs. Porter is survived by one son, Mr. Ben Porter, of Argentine, Kansas, and one granddaughter, Mrs. Francis Sadler of this place. Mr. Ben Porter, of Argentine, Kan. is here, having been called on account of the sudden death of his mother Mrs. Frances, Porter. Mr. Porter is expected to remain several weeks. Miss Sarah Bates died last Monday night. January 17, 1999. Funeral services were held last Wednesday. Johnary 19th, at the M. E. Church of this place by Rev S. F. Hatfield and Rev John Franklin. She leaves to mourn her loss two little children; one seven years old and the other one year old and number of relatives and friends. Rev J. P.

Miss Florence Pettis, who has been suffering from chills and tonsillitis for a few days, is able to be un again. Quite a surprise swent over this community especially at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Pettis, when the news of the arrival of their son, Mr. Wm. H. Pettis, of Louisville, Kv., was broken. He came home for the purpose of spending a few days on a hunting trip. He arrived last Tuesday evening and remained until Sunday night, returning to his home in Louisville. On Saturday night, January 23, Mrs. Arminta Shute entertained at a star social a limited number of friends in honor of her brother, Wm. H. Pettis, of Louisville Ky. The house was decorated with notted flowers, such as ferns, geraniums, etc. Games were indulged in until a late hour when the guests were invited to the dining room where the bright polished table heavily draped in linen and silver and cut glass presented a beautiful appearance. It had for a center decoration a pretty hand-embroidered piece of red roses. The following were present: Mr. Wm. H. Pettis, Mr. John Vinson, Mr. Narval Vinson, Mr. Those Webb, Mr. George Phillins, Mr. Ed Vateman, Mr. Frank Pettis, Mr. Robert Love, Mr. George Pettis, Mr. John Vick, Mr. Wallace Goodrich, Mr. Geo Goodrick, Mr. Spencer Ezel, Mr. Ed Pettis, Mr. Jim Love, Mr. Robert Shute, Mr. John Shute.

Epperson, Captain, Messrs L. Guild, A.Fort and H. Kidd, Board of Directors. Joe Gans, the ex-lightweight champion, and by experts considered the master of them all, is very sick at his home in Baltimore and from reports he seems to be in a bad way. Gans has had a very successful career in the ring, and has won fame and money. How much of the money he has been able to put away for that day when the rain must come no one knows. Some say he is all in, others have it that he has laid by some of the "filthy lucre" and that he will not be found wanting. The Negroes are hoping that he has profited by the examples of others and that he has fixed himself for the old age is sure to come. One thing is certain, he was the master of all at his weight, and the color line never worried him. He met all comers, took them all alike and fought his way to the top. When in his prime he just could not be stopped; and when he went after a man he had a style that was his own, and no kind of defence seemed to be able to stand against his skill. That he has brought home many sides of bacon, cannot be denied; and it is to be hoped that he has stored away some of it, where, when called for it can be found well kept. Joe was truly a great fighter, and we hope that another Negro lightweight will soon spring forward to take his place. There is one sure thing; the Negro when given a chance more than makes good. There is no fear that we will not always have good fighters. The only thing wanted is for them to have a chance to show; and when given this there is no need to fear. Gans was a fighter of the old school and has followed the game for many years, not that he is an old man, but he started young and has fought continually for 15 years beating all the good ones until years of service wore him down. He fought gamely always and in his last days he had only his skill with which to meet his younger opponents. Yet, this served him well. For twenty-one rounds he kept himself out of danger going down only after a hard fought battle which will always be a credit to him. Gans may not have money, but his name will always be a fixture upon pugilistic calander of fame. WHERE WOULD I STAND IF I LOST? WAILS JEFF. BY JAMES J JEFFRIES. Followers of pugilism are an inconsistent lot. Last summer everybody was criticising Tommy Burns because the Canuck would not fight Jack Johnson. "Why don't Burns give Johnson a chance?" they would houl. "Burns has been licking a lot of dubs and is afraid to tackle a man who would have an honest chance with him." Now these fellows are houling out of the other side of their mouths, and they are houling longer and louder than ever. "This man Burns is a disgrace to the ring," they say. "He should never have crossed the color line. Had he refused to meet Johnson the white people would never have been disgraced by having a negro as the heavyweight champion." I am wondering day by day what my fate would be were I to meet Jack Johnson and be defeated. The sporting world is crying at me now to go on in and fight the negro. In some instances the criticsm hurled at me is not of the kindiest nature. I get letters calling me a coward and all that sort of rubbish. I pay no attention to them. I have Burn's example in front of me. James Jeffries, the retired heavyweight champion, seems to have some conception of what a possible defeat at the hands of Jack Johnson, the big Texas heavyweight champion, would mean. In the article above he clearly states what he has to contend with and says, those who are now calling for him to go in and fight would be saying worse things should he be defeated. Jeffries, when in the ring, was a good man. He fought his way to the top, and retired with honor. Now, to come out of retirement and fight again just because a few sore heads are calling to him on account of a Negro winning the championship seems to be a rather long chance for him. He knows the public with whom he must contend: he knows how they can and will knock when a fellow is down and out, and should he be defeated by Johnson they would never forgive him. Then Jeffries knows what he must stack up against if he ever meets Johnson in the roped arena, and before he meets him he will be sure that he is in the best of condition. The sporting public can rest easy; Jack Johnson will never draw the color line. It would not be policy for him to do so. He will fight Jeffries when the time comes provided the purse and other conditions suit him; and then all the world will know whether James J. Jeffries is the same as of old. Let the fight be pulled off by all means. The fighting public is crying for it. They are willing to pay a good fight for the sport. BASKETBALL AT FISK. The fourth set of games of the series was played in Fisk Gymnasium last Saturday. The Freshmen hooked up with the sophomores and were downed by a score of 24-8. This was the best game the Freshies have played this year. Bond, their new forward, showed good judgment and accuracy in passing and basket pitching. The 1911 machine was as usual in good condition and found it no hard task to defeat the first year men. Russell .....Center .....Warren Speed .....Guard .....Thompson Washington .....Guard .....Rosenberg The next game, one of the decisive, was played by the Juniors and Seniors. The "Naughty Nine" boys gathered the famous team work of old and ran over the Juniors to the tune of 34-11. No time during the game were the Seniors in doubt of victory. The Juniors were outplayed. Jackson was out of the game on account of injuries. Key by his fast playing threw baskets from every angle and Brumfield played his usual snappy game. McKissack, the junior guard, was not up to his usual standard. BISHOP PARKS PASSES THROUGH THE CITY Bishop H. B. Parks, D. D., of Chicago. Ill., passed through the city on Wednesday morning en route to Jacksonville, Fla., to attend the Council of Bishops of his Church. He stopped over in the city a few hours that he might call to see his colleague, Bishop Tyree, who has been confined to his room for about three weeks. He found him much improved. Bishop Parks is the Bishop of the Twelfth Episcopal District of the African Methodist Episcopal Church which comprises the States of Tennessee and Alabama. He left in the afternoon over the N. C. and St. L. Railroad for Jacksonville HELIOTROPE CIRCLE. The Heliotrope Circle was entertained Jan. 24th by Mrs. Chas. Cotton whose home was beautifully decorated with Christmas bells. Wreathes of holly entwined the mirrors in the parlor and dining-room. A huge bunch of yellow chrysanthemums formed the center of the table in the dining-room. The Circle contemplates organizing an auxiliary for the purpose of helping the Charity Ward of Wilson's Infirmary. Mrs. A. J. Dodd, president, has been appointed chairman.

Hollinsworth and Mrs. Annie Brown were united in marriage. The wedding took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Douglass, 1306 Jackson street. Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., performing the ceremony. Just before the bridal party, which consisted of Mr. A. J. Hollinsworth, accompanied by Mr. Walter Hadley; Mrs. Annie Brown on the arm of Mrs. Walter Hadley, entered, three selections were rendered; Miss Blanche Stevens, of Mason, Tenn., sang, "Sing me to sleep:" Miss L. McLemore sang, "In after years when I am old," and Miss Mary Work sang, "I love you." Each made a fine impression upon the large number of friends present. While Miss Mynie Mae Hunter played softly the wedding march, the party filed in and took their position in the middle of the parlor, where Dr. Clark was waiting to perform the sacred ceremony. Refreshments were served in the dining-room. Quite a number of presents were brought and sent to the bride and groom. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.
