THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. IV. GRAND CHANGELLOR GRAWFORD CHOICE OF PYTHIANS. Tennessee Lodges Seek to Have Him Elevated. WILL PRESENT HIS NAME TO THE SUPREME GRAND LODGE IN AUGUST AT KANSAS CITY — THOROUGHLY COMPETENT FOR SUPREME GRAND KEEPER OF RECORDS AND SEAL-WELL KNOWN IN HIS HOME STATE-HAS BUILT UP STRONG GRAND LODGE OF KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS-CENTRAL CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE ORGANIZED-GRAND BANQUET. About ten years ago, in the old Boyd Building on Cedar street a few representative men met for the purpose of gathering together the few fragments of Pythians in the state of Tennessee and to attempt to organize a Grand Lodge. Dr. J. P. Crawford, who was a deputy appointed by the supreme officials of the Negro Pythians throughout the country, was one of the prime movers in that gathering. So zealous was he in his endeavors to give to the Negroes of Tennessee a state grand body that the representatives present saw fit confer upon him the highest honor in the gift of the organization, and they unanimously elected him Grand Chancellor. He has held that position ever since. Whether he has made the organization a success is best told by what has been done since the Grand Lodge has been in existence. Ten years ago there were less than twenty-five lodges in this state; now there are between 150 and 200, with a membership of over 6,000. In the city of Nashville the local lodges own two magnificent halls, one of which is the headquarters of the Grand Lodge. Local organizations are being organized every day, and the time is not far distant when there will be a lodge in every nook and corner of the state if the affairs of the grand body are kept in as healthy a condition as they are now. This has all been brought about by the foresightedness and uniting efforts of the head of the organization. Dr. Crawford's success as Grand Chancellor of Tennessee has attracted the attention of the wide-awake Pythians throughout the country, and he is being highly spoken of for Supreme Grand Keeper of Records and Seal for the Supreme Lodge. The men of the State have organized a campaign Committee, with headquarters in the Pythian Temple, and the members of the same are determined that the country shall know about Dr. Crawford. They feel certain that if they know him they endorse his candidacy and when the time comes they will give him their support. Nashville will make a strong pull for one of her favorite sons, and his home people will rejoice if the Supreme Lodge should see fit to confer so great an honor on this distinguished citizen.

ANNUAL BANQUET ELABORATE AFFAIR RAILWAY EMPLOYEES' PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION ENTERTAINS FRIENDS — LARGE NUMBER PRESENT — TABLES LADEN WITH CHOICE DELICACIES—GREAT GOOD BEING DONE. Possibly four years ago last month Nashville knew nothing of an organization that had for its aim, protection, care, encouragement or social pleasure for the large number of railroad men identified with and employed by the three large railroads running into this city. It was only after long and deliberate consultation that any steps were taken to create such an organization. At length it was conceived in the minds of several men that the time was ripe to begin something that would at least afford protection for railroad men during their illness or disability. Finally Mr. Humphrey Bowling, who has been for twenty-two years in the employment of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway, with one associate, organized what is known today as the Railway Protective Association. It had a small beginning. Using the language of Mr. Bowling, the president, it began with himself and another man; sitting on a plank one day both agreed to put $1.00 down for the financial beginning. It was done, and since that time the financial part of the organization has continued to grow until a substantial ban kacocount is the liberal reward. On Monday night February 15, the Association held its fourth annual banquet. Every year these festivities have attracted large numbers and notwithstanding the increment weather Monday night the lower floor of the excellent two-story building at the corner of Cedar street and Tenth avenue, North, the domicile of the Association, was crowded, nearly all of the friends taking advantage of the invitation to be present. At 9 Clock President Bowling announced that he had prepared a little program consisting of music, speaking, and eating. Religious songs were indulged in—a kind of congregational singing led by three well trained voices. The first speaker of the evening was the President, Mr. Humphrey Bowling, who in his own way set fort the aims, achievements, as well as the struggles of the Railway Protective Association giving an insight into the financial condition. The other speakers were, Revs. G. L. Umes, Jas. Slaughter T. J. Townsend H. A. Boyd, and Mr. Chas Williams, of Chattanooga, Tenn. A sumptuous repast was served consisting of barbeque pork, chicken sandwiches, pickles, celery, with cake, cream and lemonade. The friendly feeling that exists and the sympathy that has beer demonstrated by the friends of the association was responsible for the extremely large crowd on this particular occasion. THE HISTORY, WORK AND NEEDS. A Pamphlet Setting Forth These Facts About Walden University Recently Issued by the Institution. There has just been issued a sixteen-page booklet by the Meharry Medical College and Walden University of this city, setting forth in a very entertaining manner its history, work, and needs of this, one of the best known educational institutions in the Southland. On page 2 of this booklet is to be a group of the Meharry brothers after whom the medical department is named with the names of the brothers under each photograph. The book shows that the institution has received liberal contributions from time to time from these five gentlemen—Hugh, Alexander, Jesse, David and Samuel Meharry. On page three appears an excellent likeness of Geo. W. Hubbard, M. D., Dean of the Medical Department. Dr. Hubarbd has been at the head of this medical school since 1876. He is now completing his forty-fifth year of continuous service. He is a graduate of the medical department of the Nashville University, class 1876 and the medical department of Vanderbilt, class of 1879. No man is better and more generally known by the general public in and about the city—a man of strong personality who has ever been interested in "his boys" as he often term in them. On page four is an excellent likeness of Meharry Medical College. On page five will be seen the Dental and Pharmaceutical Hall and the New Meharry Auditorium. Other cuts on pages six, seven, and eight show departments and interior views together with the Meharry Brass Band. Pages nine and ten have excellent cuts. The large class of 1908 is noticeable among the excellent cuts appearing. On page eleven are seen the residences of some of the graduates of the institution that have gone out from time to time attaining much success. On page twelve and thirteen are offices, interior views of graduates of the school. On page fourteen is a magnificent three-story building owned by a graduate of the school with an article on the "Need of More Colored Physicians." Page fifteen is a group of nurses from the Nurse Training Department, while on page sixteen is a beautiful map showing the location of the various graduates from the school, the largest number being from Tennessee with Kansas as a close second, and Kentucky coming third, it shows that they have drifted and located in nearly every state in the Union and that they are doing excellent work regardless of the department of the institution from which they go. CLUB MEETING. One of the most interesting meetings of the K. A. M. W. Club took place Tuesday evening with Miss Ella Bean, on Gleaves and Tenth avenues, the Vice-President, Mrs. Jas. Sumner, presiding. The house was elaborately decorated with red carnations. Jackson vines and ferns.

No. 7 NEW LIBRARY AT MOUND BAYOU ANDREW CARNEGIE MAKE THE SOLE DONOR. Ten Thousand Dollars the Amount Given. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON INTERCEDED IN BEHALF OF NEGRO MUNICIPALITY—CITIZENS AND TOWN OFFICIALS APPROPRATE FUNDS TO PURCHASE SITE WORK ON NEW BUILDING WILL BE STARTED AT ONCE—PEOPLE VERY JUBILANT OVER THE LATE ADDITION TO THEIR HOME—CHAS. BANKS, BANKER AND MERCHANT, WAS PRIME FACTOR IN MOVEMENT Mound Bayou, Miss., Feb. 16. Through the munificient gift of Andrew Carnegie, which was announced in this city to-day there will be erected in Mound Bayou the first Library ever given by this great man to a distinctly Negro town. When the announcement was made known on the streets today it was received with great joy. It was passed from one pedestrian to another until the entire population was made aware of the magnanimous determination of the donor. Mr. Chas Banks, cashier of the Bank of Mound Bayou, who is also president of the Negro Business League of the State of Mississippi, is directly responsible and authority for the statement as it was conveyed to him through Dr. Booker T. Washington who, it is said by Mr. Banks, was the only one instrumental in having Mr. Carnegie make this donation. The amount set apart for the Library is said to be $10,000.00, yet this has not been confirmed. But it is known that the citizens and merchants of this city have agreed to give a choice piece of property for the erection of the library. This matter was settled upon more than a year ago. Mr. Banks is also authority for the statement that the preparations for the erection of the building have already been begun and that actual work upon this library will be started within the next fortnight or just as soon as proper plans and specifications can be drawn, submitted, and accepted. The Board of Trade or this city, better known as the business league will call a special meeting for the purpose of making a formal acceptance of the offer, as well as to decide definitely upon the time for beginning work on the building. The matter of maintaining the library has already been disposed of and thus it appears that it will only be a few months before a magnificent building, possibly the finest in the city will add to the already beautiful appearance of Mound Bayou. Then too, it augments the number of buildings to be erected during 1909. The fact of the matter is already in evidence. The necessary board for the control of the library is to be selected and passed on, and a set of resolutions is to be forwarded both to Mr. Washington and Mr. Carnegie, thanking for the gift which will immortalize him in this town, and Mr. Washington for the deep interest that was manifested in helping to secure it.

GILBERT OF NEW YORK New York City, Feb. 13, 1909.—The Mount Olivet Baptist Church, Manhattan, New York City, has just closed a very successful six weeks' evangelistic meeting, which was attended with very happy results. There have been more than one hundred and fifty conversions and an equal number of backsliders have been reclaimed, while many were received into the fellowship of the church by letters and otherwise. Rev. Dr. Gilbert, the pastor, has been baptizing for three Sundays, both morning and evening. The number of additions to the church has been more than two hundred. On last Sunday, the 7th inst., just after the close of the revival, Dr. Gilbert preached in the morning on "The Conversion of the Dying Thief." At the close of the sermon, three souls made a profession of their faith in the Lord Jesus and pledged themselves to follow in His footsteps. During the revival, Dr. Gilbert was ably assisted by the well known colored evangelist, Rev. S. L. Johnson of Boydton, Va. Rev. Johnson is an earnest and eloquent speaker, thoroughly biblical in his methods, and his work abides after he leaves the field. His work was quite effective and was an object lesson to the colored people of the city as to the way in which a revival should be conducted. The congregations at the church are as large as aforetime, and the church is enjoying a peace such as it had never known before in its history. Mount Olivet is the largest Negro Baptist church in the North and its influence for good is widespread. Dr. Gilbert is thoroughly entrenched in the affections of his people and his ministry is being greatly blessed by the Lord. YOUNG MEN'S LITERARY CLUB. The Young Men's Literary Club met with Mr. Mansfield Douglass on Monday night, February 14. The inclemency of the weather prevented some from responding.

None of the meetings have been more beneficial, nor has greater determination to do more for Fisk in every way been demonstrated than was manifest at the meeting held with Miss Minnie Mai Hunter, of Hynes street, on the afternoon of Friday, February 12th. After a lengthy business session the following program was rendered in commemoration of the centenary anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth: Prayer—Mis. C. H. Phillips; song—America, by the club; Reading—President Roosevelt's speech at Lincoln's birth place by Mrs. P. R. Burrus; Instrumental solo—Miss Hattie E. Caruthers; Current events—Mrs. C. W. Brown; vocal solo—Miss Lucy B. White; paper—Lincoln, the Statesman, Miss Janie E. Benson; instrumental solo—Miss Lady E. L. Phillips; Some sayings of Lincoln, and reading of Emancipation Proclamation—Prof. Dora A. Scribner: instrumental solo, Miss Martha C. Grisham. The instrumental numbers were extremely high-class and were very delightfully executed. The solo by Miss Caruthers was a medley of all the National airs and elicited prolonged applause. Miss White sang in her usual charming manner. At the close of the program the guests were presented at a scene of rare loveliness. The table was beautifully decorated, a pink azalia on a mirror making a lovely picture. The table was covered with an elegant cloth of Mexican drawn work. At each corner of the table were handsome silver candlesticks with pink shades all entwined with Jackson vine. The candies which were pink and green, were in lovely silver bonbon dishes. A most elaborate two-course luncheon was served. The decorations throughout the house were pink and green. The following guests and club members were present: Mesdames C. H. Phillips, A. J. Bright, C. W. Brown, F. A. Stewart, S. M. Lowe, P. R. Burrus, H. Allen Boyd, J. L. Hunter, Prof. Dora A. Scribner, Misses Lady Emma Louise Phillips, Lillian Bright, Elizabeth B. Moore, Emma J. Terry, Martha C. Grisham, Willa H. McBroom, Lucy B. White, Hattie E. Caruthers, Janie E. Benson, Minnie Mai Hunter, Annie Louise Stewart and Dr. F. A. Stewart. The next meeting of the club will be with Mrs. F. A. Stewart, of Eighth avenue, North, on the afternoon of Friday. February 26th, at 3:30 o'clock. THE ANTI-INK WILL PEN DR. AND MRS. CRAWFORD HIGH LY ENTERTAINED A fitting testimonial was tendered Dr. and Mrs. J. P. Crawford, on last Wednesday evening, at the Castle Hall of the Knights of Pythias of Nashville. Practically all of the subordinate lodges participated in this brilliant affair, particularly is this true with the lodges on this side of the river. The nature of the entertainment was a complimentary reception following the recent wedding of Dr. Crawford, who is Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of the State of Tennessee. Each subordinate lodge in the city had been invited to participate in the entertainment. All of the grand officers connected with the Knights of Pythias Grand Lodge had also received special invitations. As a result a crowd of gallant knights with their wives, and numerous members of the Court of Calanthe were present to do honor to the occasion. A program in the nature of speeches by the leading members of the various lodges was indulged in. Knight Crawford declared that such a testimonial was beyond his fondest expectations and his appreciation for these efforts were inexpressible. A menu, toothsome and delicate, was served during the evening. Music charming in all its strains was dispensed throughout. During the evening Tyree Lodge took advantage of the occasion to present the newly wedde couple with a very costly silver set of three pieces. Many other valuable presents had already been sent to their home. Pythianism predominated and the gallant knights, brave and courageous, as the are, were not slow in noting that those present were proud of the distinction and honor of being identified with such an organization. They were ready and willing to acknowledge J. P. Crawford as the hero of the hour and their gallant leader. CENTENARIAN DEAD Bishop E. W. Lampton, D. D., Buries His Grandmother. From the Hopkinsville Times, the leading journal in Christian County, Kentucky, the following article appeared under the date of February 13, 1909, giving the account of the death of a centenarian: Mrs. Anna B. Jones, aged 101 years was buried here Monday, her remains having been brought from Bowling Green, where she had lived for nearly half a century. Mrs. Jones was the widow of the Rev. Edward Jones the first Negro Methodist preacher in the state of Kentucky, and the grandmother of the well known Bishop E. W. Lampton of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, of Greenville, Miss. Her death recalled to the memory of the older citizens, the stirring times of ante-bellum days and the activities of that pioneer preacher, her husband. "Ned" Jones, as he was familiarly called preached for many years before freedom in the white Methodist Church of this place, his audience of course being the slaves of the members of the church. He was the property of William Fee Jones, a Presbyterian minister, but his freedom was purchased by money advanced for that purpose by the stewards of the white Methodist Church in order that his usefulness to his people might be increased. It was in 1856 that he heard of the movement that had reached Cincinnati, the establishment of an independent Negro church, known as the African Methodist Episcopal Church, and for his zeal in the effort to establish such an organization in Christian County, he was placed in jail on charge of "inciting an insurrection among the slaves." Here he remained for three months, his wife, Mrs. Anna B. Jones, sleeping on the hard floor of the none too comfortable prison in order to be near her husband. It was his prayer at a meeting in the jail house with the other prisoners on Christmas Eve night 1856 that so moved the jailer and the judge who lived near that he was released the next morning, whereupon he afterwards moved to Bowling Green. In a tumbled down brick house in the rear of the jail, Edward W. Lampton was born, and from his early childhood, the fond grandmother, who had taken the place of his mother, now deceased, consecrated him to the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ, with the fond hope that he would follow in the footsteps of his illustrious ancestor. That her prayers and the lessons she imparted to his youth have borne fruit, the country is now well aware, and in the career of Edward W. Lampton, lately elevated to the Episcopacy of the Church in which his grandfather was a pioneer, a concrete example of the efficacy of prayer and the reward of a faithful life is furnished. In order to pay the last respect to the only mother he knew, Bishop Lampton traveled all the way from Jacksonville, Fla., where he was attending the Bishops' Council of his church, and here where he first saw the light laid to rest the remains of that sainted woman, whose influence had so much to do with the success of his career. Nothing was more fitting than that by the side of the tumbled down shanty in which he was born, now a landmark dear to the hearts of all ante-bellum Negroes of the vicinity. Bishop Lampton should stand for a photo, which he states shall ever be to him one of his choicest possessions. The remains were accompanied by his relatives from Bowling Green chief of whom was the Rev. Charlie Jones, only surviving son of the union, who himself is a well known and influential Divine in the connection. The funeral ceremony at Hopkinsville was brief, simple and yet a worthy tribute to the faithful life led by Mrs. Jones. Rev. Dr. S. R. Reid, pastor of Allen Chapel A. M. E. Church Bowling Green, Rev. Dr. S. R. Balless pastor of Freeman Chapel A. M. E. Church, Hopkinsville, and Rev. J. L. Allensworth, one of the oldest and most prominent Baptist preachers of this section of the state, who was contemporary of Rev. E. W. Jones in his ante-bellum activities, officiated at the funeral. The simple character of the obsequies was in keeping with the life she had led and a large number of the older citizens of the country paid respect to her remains. Bishop Lampton left immediately for his home in Greenville, Miss., and while in the city was the guest of Mr. D. S. Stewart, one of the substantia citizens of Hopkinsville. A. M. E. MINISTERS' UNION. Tuesday, February 15, 1909, the Ministers' Union met in the office of St. John A. M. E. Church, Nashville Tenn., Rev. I. J. Edwards, President in the chair. Rev. R. U. Ferguson Chaplain protem, led the song, "Did Christ o'er sinners weep," which was sweetly sung. Prayer was offered by Rev. W. C. Henderson, Gloria Patri was spiritually and pathetically sung. Acts 6th chapter was read in concert and discussed by Revs. Gilmore, Haigler, Edwards and Brooks. Rev. W. B. Denny, M. D., discussed the subject "That Christ's will was not active in his first prayer in the garden of Geth semane." His contention was discussed by Revs. Haigler, A. Brooks Edwards, W. Sampson Brooks, Glmore and G. L. Jackson. Some claimed that Christ had two wills and two natures: others that he possessed a divine human will and nature, as Christ was human and divine. The minute of the previous session were approved. St. Paul, Rev. W. Sampson Brooks pastor.—The church is in revival service, to date 30 conversions and 30 accessions; contribution for the week $70.

He urged all pastors to organize their churches into educational clubs to raise their assessments for Turner College. In this work every pastor and people is assessed so that $5,000 can be raised in July for the establishment of a great brick building on the campus at Turner College. Already the pastors in rural districts are working hard and earnestly to bring about success. The district out look is bright. Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, D. D., said: "In the near future there would be a great educational mass-meeting somewhere in Nashville in the interest of Christian Education, at which time, he hoped to secure $1,200 for Turner College. Let us work and pray for it." Benediction by chaplain Rev. A. Brooks. MARRIAGES. Primm Farmer and Martha Horetin. John S. Brown and Hattie E. Bingham. Joe Randolph and Mary Clay.

An unusually pleasant afternoon was spent with this charming hostess. The question of taking up some definite plan of work for this year was discussed. The work of the club thus far has been purely social, but since the membership represents so much latent talent, it has been decided that "work and play" shall be mixed thus developing the useful as well as social life of the young ladies. New members were received into the club in the person of Miss Sophia Overstreet and Miss Quinnetta Cumpston. A "Resolution Contest" was the chief feature of amusement, the prizes being won by Miss Badger and Mrs Smith. Rev. Philps, of Africa told the sound ladies many interesting stories of life in Africa. The next meeting will be with Miss Lillian A. Bright, North Hill street, Tuesday, March 9, 1909. The Nashville Globe.

SOME CONTRASTS AND COMPARI SONS. Although contrasts and comparisons are sometimes odious and rasping, especially to those who suffer one way or another thereby, yet, it is true that sometimes they are the best and only way that the relative action of men, races or nations and the results arising from such action can be differentiated. We wish to call attention to some things which have transpired lately in this country. It will be remembered that but a few days ago there was on the Pacific Coast an anti-racial or Japanese problem, but to-day there is not a semblance of it; or if there is, it exists only passively in the minds of the coast people. The national authorities gave the Californians to understand in language which could not be misunderstood that they would not be allowed to foist upon the whole country by their wild, anti-racial folly an international situation pregnant with all sorts of dangerous probabilities and possibilities. Why did the General Government put a quietus on the rantings of the coast people? Why did it make a majority of the accredited representatives of the State of California nullify or rescind a law which they themselves had formulated, deliberated upon and passed? Did not California have the same right to pass anti-Japanese legislation as South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, etc. to pass anti-Negro class laws? California had as much right to violate the treaty-making provision of the Constitution as the Southern States had and have of passing disfranchisement laws in utter defiance of the intent and purpose of the spirit of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments of the same national instrument. If one is in violation of the organic law, the others are, too. California was brought to her senses and put in her place for good and sufficient reason. Although there are only ninty-three Japanese children attending twenty-three schools, the law segregating them was smothered to death even after its passage. Strange though it may be, it is the first time a state has been flatly called down for its anti-racial legislative crusades. The Japanese have contributed nothing whatever to the material progress of this Nation, yet their government said to it in a diplomatic way: "Don't let those Californians interfere with my subjects' children; if you do I --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1909. will hold you responsible for their action." And this Government respected that demand, however it touched and stung its pride, because it knew that demand nursed a threat backed up by the sinews of war. The Negroes, millions strong, peaceable, industrious, patient and patriotic, have devoted centuries to the service of this country, yet they have been stripped of every right of manhood and of humanity without any effectual, friendly intervention to stay the deprivation. The last episode is that the Republic of Panama, the illegitimate creature of this Government's shrewd and scheming diplomacy, has demanded an apology, or rather a satisfactory explanation, for some fancied insult arising from the heated discussion inulged in by Congress on the Panama Canal deal. Notes have been exchanged. The contrasts and comparisons are striking as to the manner in which this government treats other nations or races of men and its treatment of its loyal, faithful Negro citizenship. ACQUITTED ON INSANITY DODGE. The muderous assassin who several months ago shot to death four innocent Negroes was recently turned loose by a Memphis court on the plea of insanity. Such a court should be immortalized with the notorious Sanhedrim. Such mockery of justice is enough to make angels weep and devils blush. Insanity! How flimsy! What hollow mockery! The red-handed murderer was insane, says the august court, and therefore no blame or responsibility attaches to him for his diabolical crime. Had he been a Negro he would have been hanged as high as Haman without even the formality of a trial, or chased through the streets and shot to death as a wild animal. For only last week in the same city a poor Negro, it is alleged, with a Bible in one hand and a knife in the other, becoming too demonstrative, was shot to death without parley, and that, too, without his having killed any one. Sum up the following and you have a sample of the morbid sentimentality that runs riot in the Memphis town: One man commits a wholesale crime by murdering four men as fast as he can pull the trigger of his pistol and is justified, because he is white, by being exonerated by a so-called court of law; another man, it is claimed, knocks down a person or two and is killed, not by an officer who should have done it, if necessary, as a representative of the law, but by an "outfit" who thought he could do so with impunity because it was a Negro That Memphis assassin was no more insane than the court that tried and acquitted him. If he was insane, why was he not put in an asylum instead of being set adrift with his murder-crazed mind to prey upon the lives of other Negroes? No insanity was his, not by a long shot. H had ruthlessly murdered four men because they were Negroes and used the insanity dodge to get out of it. Thaw, who, with some sort of excuse, murdered White, was adjudged insane and sent to an insane asylum as being too dangerous to be turned loose on the public. But the Memphis murderer goes scot-free. Should a court composed of the lost souls of the damned to intercept the soul of that manifold murderer as it enters the lurid regions so graphically described by Dante, and should that court absolve his soul from all blame for the murder of those four innocent men, such mockery of the dispensation of justice, even in hell, would have been a stigma and a shame. The turning loose of such a man on the public is the sowing of dragon teeth, a sore, ulcerous and contagious, on the fair name of the State. THE NIGHT SCHOOL. The Board of Education should be commended for providing for and putting in operation at the Hadley School building a night school for the benefit of those who, by occupation or circumstances, are deprived of the advantage of attending any of the day schools. This school will fill a long felt want, giving many the opportunity so long desired of increasing their stock of education in a regular and systematic way. This school is the first of its kind, to our knowledge, to be inaugurated or established by any southern city. The Superintendent of the city schools, it is said, has used its good offices in bringing about this much-needed feature of educational work among the colored people. It is hoped that the success of the experiment will be the best recommendation for further enchant along this particular line; that is, it results justify the expenditure of time and money, other night schools may be located in parts of the city centrally convenient to large bodies of the people. Prot. Benton, principal of Hadley School, with a splendid corps of teachers, has charge of the work, and is doing it well. The school is being largely attended by our and young, which is a manifestation of the eagerness and appreciation with which they are grasping the chance to add to their limited fund or knowledge. This is a hopeful sign pointing in the right direction and also indicating the intimate desire of the people for that intelligence which radiates from an enlightened mind. Those who have been instrumental in providing this school and those who are conducting it so successfully are deserving of much credit. The school stands for heptuness and better citizenship, and nothing can have a wortier object. Port Townsend, Washington, was raided by white soldiers again Wednesday night, making the third time in the past few months. A third time: a dozen or two lines in the press make note of the incident. The soldiers who have been guilty on this rioting are known, yet there is to be heard none of that red tape which named out about the Brownsville, affair in which no soldiers were engaged. The Brownnow-Evans feud has continued to grow and widen until an impassable matus looms up between. This inter-party strife means that there will never be a Republican victory in this state. The consummate pontical diplomats of democracy will see to it that no oil is poured upon the troubled waters. The Grand Lodge of Mississippi Masons refused traternal correspondence of amination with the Grand Lodge on New Jersey because the latter admits Negroes. Stim the old serpent on prejudice drags on its way, leaving its slimy trail in its wake. It is always trying to fang the unoffending Negro. There should be no cry of objection against the passage of a fair election law, for such is necessary to secure and insure a just expression of the people's will. The party that must retain its hold on the reins of power by unfair election gag-laws does not deserve to rule and should be relegated to the limbo of defeat. The Governor has as much right to pardon Negroes as members of other races where similar conditions and considerations obtain. He is meeting this conscientious performance of his duty fearlessly, for which he is commended by those who bear him no hatred or animosity. A patrolman in a Georgia town was recently given a twelve-month chaingang sentence for extortion, his victim being a Negro. This limb of the law arrested the Negro without provocation and exacted a dollar for his liberation. Officers of the law should be conscientious. One of the most noted cases ever tried in the State is now in full swing. BAPTIST MINISTERS' WEEKY MEETING. It can hardly be said that the Baptist City Ministers' Conference was largely attended on Monday morning. The weather had been too inclement on the previous day, and the attendance at the churches was small, and in many instances the collection smaller, judging from the report of those churches whose ministers re- TO ALL READERS OF THE NASHVILLE GLOBE!

Yet a deal of interest and the usual routine of business was gone through. The ministers are beginning to look forward to two coming events which are already casting their shadows. The first is the visit of Miss N. H. Burroughs, of Louisville, who is to speak here in April and the second is the great Sunday-School Congress which is to come here in the month of June. This movement promises to bring thousands of visitors and some of the ministers, especially the pastors of the leading churches among the Baptists, have already been discussing in their meetings organization of committees to thoroughly canvass for home as well as for the entertainment of the delegates while here. Chairman T. J. Townsend will no doubt bring the matter before the meeting for consideration at an early date, at which time the personnel of the committees will be decided upon. TO HAVE BASEBALL PARK. The information comes to the Globe from an authoritative source that a first-class baseball park will be erected for the entertainment of the Negro people of this city during the incoming season with that popular game. It is said that the young men who have conceived this project will spare no pains to make it a success. A grandstand will be erected and, in fact, everything that goes to make a first-class baseball park will be done. Already reputable ball clubs are being scheduled, and the public will be given first-class exhibitions of baseball. In enterprises of this or any other kind among Negro people, they should give their liberal support. If they love to witness this sport as played by others and where they are circumscribed, they should be more than ready to witness it as played by members of their own race and in a park where there will be no segregation or other proscriptive rules or limitation. There is much good common sense in the old adage: "I had rather be the head of a mouse than the tail of a lion." The ball park is going to be erected and good games are going to be played and it rests with the lovers of the sport among the people whether they will assist in making it from year to year better and better until they will have no desire to go where they are not particularly wanted.

The church directory now being run in the Globe is being run for the benefit of the thousands of readers of the Globe, who read the paper every week carefully. They have no other strictly secular paper now being published in the city by our people that will give them a full knowledge of all the happenings each week; so the Globe takes pleasure in commending the many churches to all the people. They will decide after reading this directory each week where they desire to worship on Sunday or during the ensuing week. In case there is an error in your directory concerning your church or services, you should call at the Globe office, 447 Fourth avenue, North, by Wednesday and correct the same. Do this at once as we desire to be correct at all times. The Globe further desires to state that its reading circulation has doubled in the past year. You can now insert ads about your entertainments and 7,000 readers in Nashville will see it in the Globe on Saturday. GLOBE PUBLISHING CO. GONE OVER THE RIVER.

This may be at- tributed to many reasons. Not, how- ever, that the matter has not been seriously considered by energetic and experienced business men of color, but simply because designing parties have seen fit to raise the rent on up-town buildings when it was learned that a first-class business was going to be ‘tun for colored people. We are proud to say, however, that this obstacle has been overcome, and that a very beauti- ful and centrally located place—one block from the transfer station, one block from the Capitol, and one block from and facing the centre of the Fifth Avenue (Summer street) shop- ping district—on the northeast corner of Fifth avenue, North, and Cedar street, has been secured, in which will be installed a modern ice cream manu- facturing plant, a massive marble soda fountain, and furnishings and fix- tures to correspond, which will render it one of the most beautiful and well- equipped parlors in the South, The management of this unique enterprise, which will be known as “The Palms,” have been catering to the welfare of the public for several years, and their very. successful business attests the satisfactory service they have ren- dered their many patrons, They an- nounce that the work of preparation is now going on, and that the exact date of the opening will be announced in a subsequent edition of this paper. They will carry a nice line. of confec- tions, cigars and tobacco, souvenir post cards and all kinds of soft drinks. Special attention will be giv- en to all orders for cream and sherbet, which will be delivered to any part of the city. Satisfaction and service guaranteed.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1909. OUT OF TOWN NOTES CLARKSVILLE NOTES. The sale of $31,000 four and one half per cent bonds, realizing the city a scant premium margin of $150.00 more or less, was approved by the council one day last week. This money will be so placed as to liquidate outstanding debts. Since the city has been under the local option law the treasury has been shy some $11,000, and the city fathers are now solving this problem: If city-wide lessens the revenues $11,000 in one year's time, how much more will be the deficit in five years under the state-wide plan. The business interests are making preparations to be represented in the Fifteenth annual meeting of the Negro Business League, at Louisville next August. Clarksville supports four groceries, three undertakers, three restaurants, two silversmiths, two upholstering stoves, three shoe makers, a meat market and a drug store. Red the color of happiness and joy has been banished from sight for one hundred days during the mourning period of the Chinese people for their dead rulers; while the red corn juice, mellowed with age, has been banished from this city and state for one hundred years—may be—by the ardent advocates of the water wagon, to commemorate the deeds of another silent ruler. A Louisville salesman, displaying his state's particular product—an elixir well known to drive the skeleton from the feast of painted landscape in the brain of man, being also the mingled soul of corn, barley and rye—came into Clarksville unannounced to see and to be seen. He saw, and made a scope in disposing many a sample and in return received orders; touched many a thirsty soul with his generosity; and was in turn touched by one of the gentlest peace officer of this place, who caused him to leave the tidy sum of fifty dollars, as an everlasting acknowledgement of the great and noble prohibition sentiment. After getting his hearing, he opened his grip, got his little hammer—no axe—for he was a member of the Louisville Knockers' Club, and started in pursuit of that August person who had caused him such trifling inconvenience and to a friend addressed: "Stop him! stop him!" he cried. The saleman's friend did not move, "What!" cried the Kentuckian with the axe; "could'st thou not have barred his way? He is an assassin!" "An assassin? What meanest thou?" "Play not the idiot; an assassin is a man who kills." "A butcher then?" "Old fool! A man who kills another man." "To be sure! A soldier!" "Dolt! A man who kills another man in time of peace." "I see—the execution." "Thou jack! A man who kills another in his home." "Exactly—a physician." "Fiddlesticks! A man who kills a town and state." "Precisely—a state-wide prohibitionist" Upon which the salesman with the axe fled and is running still. Mr. H. Allen Boyd, of Nashville, made quite a display of Negro dolls at Central Drug Store Wednesday afternoon. Mr. R. T. Berry, of Owensboro, Ky., was in the city Tuesday. Dr. E. S. Randals returned from Nashville Thursday. Mr. Peter Postelle, of Hopkinsville, Ky., spent Wednesday in the city. Miss Clara Milan, of Erin, is in the city. Mrs. J. S. Wilson, formerly of this city, now of Dickson, is in the city visiting her mother, Mrs. Ellen Young. The death of Mr. Samuel Garnett occurred last Friday at noon after an illness of several months. He was a well-known citizen, an active church worker and beloved by all who knew him. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. T. J. Goodall, assisted by Rev. C. H. Boone and Rev. P. J. Coleman at Fifth Ward Baptist Church. The interment was at Golden Hill Cemetery. Prof. L. M. Scott of Louisville, Ky., was in the city last week. Mrs. W. P. Irvine, wife of Prof. W. P. Irvine, arrived in the city last Monday morning from Columbia, Tenn. Mr. James Bumpass, of Nashville, was in the city last week. Mr. Irvine Elliott, of Port Royal, and Mrs. Melvina Bronaugh, of Pembroke, are at the Infirmary this week to undergo operations. Mrs. Wesley Hunt has entirely recovered from her operation, and has left the Infirmary for her home. Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Firse gave a very pleasant entertainment in honor of Prof. L. M. Scott, of Louisville. Cards were played, after which a delightful reenact was served. Among those present were Dr. and Mrs. S. Jefferson, Miss Emma Kayse and Miss Ella Wells Misses Leola and Lizzie Firse, Prof. L. M. Scott, Dr. R. T. Burt and Mr. H. R. Merry. The house of Rev. Houston Met- calfe was destroyed by fire last Friday morning at 3 o'clock. The Mariah Crawford Court No. 64 gave a Valentine Entertainment at the residence of Dr. C. A. Kelly last Monday night. Despite the inclement weather an enjoyable evening was spent. CORNERSVILLE NOTES. Our pastor, Rev. B. A. Bailey, had a fine program rendered Saturday night celebrating the birth day of our first Bishop, Richard Allen. We are glad to report the sick of our vicinity convalescing.

Monday night, February 10, Gaston Coffey was run over by an engine in the local yards at Columbia and received injuries from which he died a few hours later. He was employed by the road and was moving some coal from the track and stepping out of the way of a passing train stepped immediately in front of an approaching train from another direction. Rev. W. D. Pettus assisted by Rev. J. H. Bishop conducted the funeral services and that of Jim Little a member of the M. E. Church of which Rev. Pettus is pastor. The funerals were preached here in the Presbyterian church to a large congregation. Some expressed themselves as having never before witnessed two corpses in the church at the same hour. In the case of Mr. Jim Little, Rev. Pettus' text was Rev. 14:13; and for Mr. Gaston Coffey the text was John 14:14. Both speakers made lasting impressions upon their hearers. After the funeral the large group of sorrowing relatives and friends wended their way to the grave and thus ended one of the saddest chapters in the history of Cedar Grove. LEWISBURG NOTES. Rev. J. M. W. Deshong, pastor of Ransom Chanel Presbyterian Church, in East Lewisburg, filled his pulpit last Sunday. He was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Gee, Rev. G. W.

The proceeds from the entertainment is to be used in the improvement of the Sunday-School. MONDAY NIGHT, FEBRUARY, 22ND AT MOUT OLIVE CHURCH. ALL ARE INVITED. ```markdown ``` C. H. CLARK, D. D., Pastor, ```markdown ``` That the Negroes of Nashville are to have a first-class baseball park is now a fact. The Globe man has learned that this park is to be completed as soon as the weather will permit and that it will be within four or five blocks of the square and that three car lines are within a block of the gate. There is no doubt but that this is a step in the right direction. The Negroes are ready and waiting for such a place and the promoters of the park are to be congratulated upon such a movement. There is already a movement on foot to get the towns around Nashville together and to have first-class baseball all the summer. The Globe will do all in its power to get the managers of the different teams to get them in shape for have first-class baseball and they are the coming season. Let the people willing to pay for it. There is no reason why a park should not be made a paying investment; other towns not so large as Nashville have them and they are kept busy all season. Now let the managers of all the teams get busy. The park will be open to them at any time they desire to play. We are ready and willing to publish all news matter concerning base ball, and to do all we can to push the sport. The Globe has received letters from the following towns: Columbia, Lebanon, Clarksville, Decatur. All state that the prospects point to a winning team. Now let us hear from Nashville. Get together, boys, put up that old brand of ball that has made Nashville famous. You have the prayers, just get them together and you will have a first-class team that will bring home the bacon. The Globe is with you. Address all matters to J. BLAINE BOYD. CUBAN NOTES FROM HARRY DANIELS. Munyon, second baseman, of this year's Royal Giants, is playing the greatest game of his life in the Cuban League, with the Fea's team, at third base. Petway, the great receiver for Philadelphia Giants, who is receiving for the Fea's team, has proven to be the greatest throwing and running catcher ever seen in Cuba. The Cuban peo- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1909. AN ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE AMUSEMENT OF THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL ple are going wild about his wonderful throwing. Buckner has jumped the Fea's team and signed with the Havana team. Lloyd, of the Philadelphia Giants, joined the Havana team last week. This makes four colored players playing with the Havana team. Francis, who was with the Matanza team, was made a special offer to finish out the season with the Miami team, of the Florida Hotel League, which he has accepted, and joined them last Wednesday. Dunbur, of the Royal Giants, and P. Hill, of the Leland Giants, are having a great time fighting for batting honors in the Cuban League. At present Dunbur leads. Harris, second baseman of the Leland Giants, is second in stolen bases. The first game of the Florida Hotel Leauge was played Tuesday, Feb. 5, between the breakers and Princiana, and was won by Captain Mac Collan's Breaker team. The feature of the game was Bowman's home run in the first inning, with three men on base. Earl of the Princiana, was relieved by Anderson, who finished the game. Bradley was badly hurt in the third inning. The score: Breakers.....4 1 2 1 0 0 2—10 Now that Jack Johnson has issued his sweeping challenge to meet anyone anywhere it seems that it is hard to find anyone to go up against him. That Jeffries was a good man when he was fighting cannot be denied, but what he can do now, after a few years of retirement is only guess work and he himself is not inclined to thing he can beat Mr. Coon. If he thought so you can just go and bet the fight would have been all set by this time. Now, some moneymaking fellows seem to have made an offer of $200,000 for the fight and they seem to think that Mr. Johnson will be willing to fight for one-third of the amount. Well, they may look at it that way but Sam Fitzpatrick is a better manager than that and I hardly think he would let the champion fight for less than 60 per cent win, loose or draw. He knows that Johnson cannot be champion always and that now is the time to GET BY. Other champions have named the terms, why not Johnson? Go on Mr. Jack Johnson and get yours to-day—it may rain to-mor row; and when you meet Mr. Jeffries have as much of the gate receipts as you can get and then give him a J.ELDRIDGE HURT,Superintendent.

The petition asking for clemency in the case of George Spurlock bears the signatures of almost fifty of Nashville's most prominent business men, among whom are the heads of some of our greatest enterprises. The petition follows: "Nashville, Tenn., Feb. 8, 1909.—To His Excellency, M. R. Patterson, Governor of Tennessee.—Sir: We, the undersigned officials and citizens of Davidson County, respectfully request the pardon of George Spurlock, colored, sentenced by the Criminal Court of Davidson County to ten years in prison on the charge of murder in the second degree. In the May, 1908, term of said court the case was appealed to the Supreme Court, and on Feb. 6, 1909, was affirmed. "Previous to this trouble and since that time Spurlock has borne an excellent reputation as a quiet, hardworking, law-abiding citizen. "Briefly, the facts as developed were that Spurlock was engaged to be married to a certain Mary Lou Mitchell. On the night of the killing he entered the room occupied by Mary Lou Mitchell and found Charles Smith, colored, with her. He asked him why he was there, and claimed that Smith made a hostile movement toward him, whereupon he, believing that he was in danger, took a pistol that was lying on the mantel shelf in the room and shot Chas. Smith dead. "Irby Bennett, wholesale merchant and capitalist E. W. Foster, President of the Board of Trade; R. P. Webb, of Foster, Webb & Parkes; J. T.
