THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. IV. FISK WINS IN ANNUAL DEBATE ATLANTA UNIVERSITY TEAM MAKE GAME FIGHT. The Honor a Much Coveted Prize. YOUNG MEN SHOW MUCH BRILLIANCY IN HANDLING THEIR SUBJECTS — QUESTION POPULAR ONE OF THE TIME IN THE SOUTH—LARGE CROWD OUT TO LISTEN TO THE CONTESTANTS —GREAT ENTHUSIASM EXHIBITED—AUDIENCE NOT PARTIAL TO EITHER SIDE. Special to the Nashville Globe: On the night of the 16th inst., the third intercollegiate debate between Fisk and Atlanta Universities was held in the Ware Memorial Chapel of Atlanta University. The Chapel was beautifully decorated on one side with old gold and blue and on the other side crimson and gray, the colors of the respective institutions. As is always the case, when Fisk and Atlanta meet in the forum, the spacious chapel was comfortably filled with loyal supporters of each institution. But this audience, composed mainly of Atlanta supporters, was by no means partial to one side, for hearty applause was given both sides whenever it was deserved. About 8:15 p. m. Rev. E. R. Carter, D. D., with an intense prayer opened the meeting and announced the subject for discussion as embodied in the following resolution: "Resolved, That local option is preferable to state-wide prohibition as a means of dealing with intemperance." Fisk with her team composed of W. L. Dawson, S. M. Kendrick and B. A. Green, alternate, upheld the affirmation; while Atlanta, with her team composed of W. R. Banks, L. P. M. White and A. J. Williams, alternate, upheld the negative. The first affirmative speaker in a deliberate and logical manner discussed the evils of intemperance, and gave his interpretation of the question. He insisted upon the importance of the question, saying that intemperance is real and calls for immediate remedy, for it is steadily gaining headway among the people, and the longer we wait to begin action the harder the task will be to deal with it. He then showed that there are three ways of getting a state-wide prohibition law passed and that at the present time a state-wide law could not reasonably be expected by any of these methods in the majority of the states: thus the impracticability of state-wide prohibition. The first negative speaker, in the opinion of your correspondent, uselessly, spent much of his time in discussing the evils of intemperance, which the first affirmative speaker had emphasized at the start. However, after interpreting the question again, the first negative proceeded to produce a mass of statistics to show the superior results of state-wide prohibition over local option. He also made a lengthy comparison between Maine, a state-wide prohibition state, and Massachusetts, a local option state. These figures seemed almost conclusively to frame his point—that the state-wide prohibition produces better results than local option. The second affirmative again emphasized that the question was practical and called for immediate action. He immediately attacked the comparison of the negative on the ground that a comparison can only be made between two states which are alike in their essential makeup. He very skillfully overthrew his opponent's argument by showing that the negative's comparison was faulty in this respect. He then took up his main argument that local option works better in practice and is more rational in its principle than state-wide prohibition. The second negative discussed the question from the political, economic, sociological and moral standpoints. The moral side of local option was bitterly assailed, and no doubt went a long way in influencing one of the judges to cast his vote for the negative. In the rebuttal Fisk showed her superiority over her rival. Not once were the arguments of the affirmative shaken by the negative; but under the heavy fire of the affirmative, the negative's arguments, with the exception of the moral side of local option, were successfully broken down. In fact, when it came to refutation Atlanta was completely outclassed. On the whole, the debate was good, and especial mention must be made of the manner in which the Atlanta team was drilled as to delivery and form. Too much credit cannot be given to the Fisk boys, for their task was really a hard one. They had to go into a territory where local option had been tried and state-wide prohibition put in its place; a territory where public sentiment was inquestionably in favor of state-wide prohibition. But this did not prevent the success of Fisk, for the judges, Prof. M. D. Bullock, of Atlanta Baptist College; Rev. Lawrence Phelps, D. D., of Atlanta Theological Seminary; and Prof. E. C. Silsby, of Talladega College, rendered a decision two to one in favor of the affirmative—Fisk. FISK LITERARY CLUB. The Fisk Literary Club held its first April meeting with Mrs. Susan M. Lowe, at The Tennessee School for the Blind. The meeting was largely attended, and proved quite beneficial. The Club is to give an entertainment May 7th and the members are quite busy with plans, etc. The children of the Blind School furnished the program which was extremely interesting and entertaining. After the program an elaborate three-course luncheon was served by Mrs. Lowe, assisted by Miss Florence Halford. Mrs. Lowe had the Senior Normal Class of Fisk as special guests. About thirty-five guests and club members were present. The next meeting will be with Miss Grisham and Miss McBroom at The Daniel Hand Training School on the afternoon of Friday, April 23, at 3:30 o'clock. CELEBRATES TWENTY-FIFTH BIRTHDAY.

McEwen, James Bluing and Wm. B. Bryant. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 1909. ROW OVER BEEF STEAK MR. ROWLAND W. HAYES AS SAULTED. Took Three White Men to Turn the Trick. J. R. BURTON, GROCERMAN, THE ALLEGED AGGRESSOR—ATTEMPTED TO FORCE ON CUSTOMER MORE THAN HE ASKED FOR — COMMUNITY MUCH STIRRED UP OVER THE AFFAIR — DECIDE TO STAY AWAY FROM STORE—INSULTS TO CUSTOMERS. Mr. Rowland W. Hayes, a student of Fisk University, was brutally assaulted by three white men near the corner of Eighteenth avenue and Jefferson street one day last week, and was severely injured. It is said that two of the men held Mr. Hayes while the third man was doing the cowardly act. Mr. Hayes is slowly recovering from his injuries. The affair, it seems, was the result of a difference of opinion about a beefsteak. Mr. Hayes went into the grocery store of one Burton to purchase a steak. He asked that he be given one to cost a certain price. When the grocer cut it the weight put the price in excess of what was asked for. Mr. Hayes told him he could not accept it. Burton insisted and Mr. Hayes started out. He was followed to the door and across the street. Burton called him a s—of a b—and struck him a blow, felling him. Young Hayes rallied quickly and retaliated. He was giving a good account of himself until several other white men took Burton's part, preventing Hayes from defending himself, so that Burton could assault him. The citizens in the neighborhood are very indignant over the affair and are outspoken in their denunciation of the grocerman. They entertain some fear as to the safety in going to this place. Mothers will not send their daughters there, as it is alleged that on two occasions the boys in the place have insulted girls who went to make a purchase, and they will not send their sons for fear they will return home with their heads bunged up. "It will work a hardship," one in the neighborhood was heard to remark, for the other groceryman near by is alleged to have said that if he had his way he would line up every Negro and shoot their brains out, but they are determined not to have any dealings with these men. They seem to be of the opinion that to keep peace in the community Negroes will have to stay away from these stores. PROFESSOR W. H. GOUNGILL DEAD GREAT INDUSTRIAL EDUCATOR. FUNERAL ATTENDANCE LARGEST IN HISTORY OF TOWN. Special to the Globe: Huntsville, Ala., April 21.—Just across the way in front of the Carnegie Library opposite the campus of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal rest the remains of the late Rev. William Hooper Councill, A. M, Ph. D. The funeral services which were attended by distinguished and representative men from all parts of the state of Alabama, by delegations from alumni associations throughout the country, and from the citizens en masse from this city, was held this afternoon. They were very impressive. It was a solemn occasion. The student body sorrowing and beeaved at the loss of such a champion of the cause of industrial education who was known to be the pioneer in the industrial idea, expressed in resolutions of condolence their love for their deceased president. Promptly at 2 o'clock the massive, metallic casket was borne by stalwart students from the parlors of the Councill home where it had laid in state since Sat urday, to a large porch that was used as a platform. Services were held in open air. Resolutions from the alum ni associations at Birmingham, Mont gomery, Selma, and other cities were read. Speeches over the bier were made by two Commissioners, Hon Mayhew and Hon. Hunt, of Hunts ville, life-long friends and supporters of Dr. Councill. Other remarks were made by Hons. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., H. V. Cashin, of Decatur Ala., A. N. Johnson, of Nashville, Tenn., Dr. R. F. Boyd, of Nashville, and Prof. Ira T. Bryant, an alumnus of the school. After this an able and impressive sermon was delivered by Rev. Jas. M. Henderson, D. D., President of Payne University, Selma, Ala. Dr. Henderson spoke in eloquent terms giving color and touch to the brilliant life just ended. His scholarly discourse filled with pathos and touching descriptions left not a dry eye in the vast assemblage that lined every nook and corner of the campus. Elaborate beyond description were the floral designs. The entire grave was a blanket of costly, fragrant roses. The grave had been dug for several days, whitewashed on the inside, cased up for two feet, making a perfect fortress of flowers. There were pillows and head designs, making a beautiful and picturesque place for the dead. After the funeral exercises the casket was borne to the grave by a select body of students. A touching feature of the sad occasion was a song by a quartette, rendered without solicitation by three daughters and a son of the great Clay family of Alabama. The father of these four young white people was a life-long friend of Dr. Councill. It was a beautiful tribute, and using a remark from Hon. H. V. Cashin, "Such had never been known before in the State of Alabama." Their singing was pathetic in the extreme. Hundreds of telegrams from all over the country to the bereaved family were received every hour since the announcement of his death. Noticeable about this great school was the manner in which Prof. H. M. Archer, M. D., who was Dr. Councill's vice president, and who had practically had charge of the school for the past two years managed the entire sad affair, administering to the sorrowing family and attending to the executive part of the school. He was ably assisted by his wife, who, for possibly a quarter of a century had been connected with the institution—a record now held only by her. Dr. Councill was born a slave and the establishment of this school, better known as "Councill's School," was a dream of his life that he lived to see accomplished. He was in the sixtieth year of his age when the summons came. No.16. A GREAT VIC= TORY ACHIEVED GENERAL EDUCATIONAL BILL PASSES SENATE. Carries An Appropriation For Negro School. OLD VOLUNTEER STATE UNFURLS HER BANNER TO THE BREEZES—NO LONGER IN BACK GROUND—WILL HAVE FINE STATE NORMAL FOR NEGRO YOUTH—WILL PROBABLY BE LOCATED NEAR NASHVILLE—SPECIAL AMENDMENTS GRANTED FOR INSTITUTION. If the action of the legislative committee, or what is known as the Senate Finance Ways and Means Committee, is endorsed by the state senate during the present session, it will mean that the Negroes of the Volunteer State will, for the first time in the history of the commonwealth, enjoy part of the privileges accorded them in an educational way by the provisions of the constitution. The committee, after hearing numerous arguments and speeches before it, is said to have recommended favorably the passage of the house bill providing for and setting apart a certain amount of the general educational fund for the establishment, erection and maintenance of an agricultural, mechanical and normal college—a distinctively state school where the boys and girls of the race can receive an agricultural and mechanical training as well as a normal education. Two members of a special committee appointed by the agricultural, mechanical and normal association, formed in this city several months ago, visited the senate finance committee in its session Monday night at the Tulane Hotel. They gave the committee some information concerning what the Negroes best needed, and what would be more beneficial to them in normal training and a school of technology. At any rate, it is understood that with the appropriation practically certain from the state, the committee is said to have agreed that the Negroes' part of the Morrell fund would begin this year to this new school. If this is true, the first year's appropriation will be within the neighborhood of twenty-seven thousand dollars, which sum would do much towards supplying what the Negro youths of Tennessee have long been deprived of. Quite a deal of money has been appropriated last session and during the present session for education, and it looks as though the educational bill providing for four normals is receiving the hearty support of all sections of the state. The interest appears to be centered on one of the two favorable bills which are to come up in the senate during the next week. On Wednesday, April 21, the Educational Bill passed the senate and now only waits the Governor's signature to become a law. This bill provides that 25 per cent of the gross revenue of the state shall be devoted to school purposes. Of this 61 per cent is to go to the general common school fund; 10 per cent for equalizing the school terms in the various counties; 1 per cent for rural school libraries; 8 per cent to aid in establishing county high schools; 13 per cent for three normal schools for white teachers, one in each grand division of the state, and an agricultural and normal school for colored pupils; 7 per cent to the University of Tennessee, $10,000 of which is for the Experimental Station in West Tennessee, $5,000 for experimental farm work in Middle Tennessee, $3,000 for railroad fare for Middle and West Tennessee students, and the rest of the sum total to the University proper, which gives the University about $45,000 a year. The bill is expected to produce about $900,000 school revenue annually. It is claimed that it repeals the Chesnutt act and all other school (Continued on Page 2.)

None of this, however, went to Negro normal and agricultural education. Before the passage of the Chesnutt law the school appropriation amounted to about $300,000. Under the Chesnutt bill the appropriation was increased to $634,000. Besides this latter amount, there was an appropriation of $50,000 a year for the University of Tennessee, and there were other appropriations, which added to the $634,000, make the difference between the fund under the Chesnutt bill about $200,000 less than under the proposed law. Proportionately the increase over two years ago is no greater than the increase of two years ago over four years ago. A committee of Negroes called upon the Legislative Committee which has in charge a bill to establish a reformatory for white boys. This committee met the lawmakers A. M. E.

A proposition was submitted by which a similar place for Negro boys was to be started and maintained by the State of Tennessee. It could not be stated what would be done, but the committee is said to favor the plans offered by the colored people. It has been suggested that the state appropriate about one hundred acres for such a purpose as it already has this amount on hand, which is now lying idle. During the present session much will be said along this line. On Wednesday the Committee on Charitable Institutions made special reference to the State Reformatory. bill of this kind was passed by the Legislature of 1907, but the appropriation of $100,000 was only sufficient to purchase 110 acres of land. "This," says the report, "was a most meritorious measure. This land having been acquired for this purpose, should be used. We, therefore, urgently recommend that $12,000 be appropriated for the purpose of erecting a building for a white reformatory on said farm; that $500 be appropriated for machinery and $500 for a fence, $2,000 for furniture and $1,200 per annum for a Superintendent. "We further recommend and have prepared and introduced a bill to that effect, that seventy-five acres be set aside from the penitentiary farm for the purpose of providing a site for the negro branch of said reformatory. "We recommend that $8,000 be appropriated for a building to be erected on said site, $1,000 for furnishings, $500 for machinery and $6,000 per annum for the Superintendent. "We further recommend that $100 per capita per annum be appropriated for the maintenance of these institutions." PLEASANT EVENING. Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Morton entertained a large number of friends at their residence, 1411 Thirteenth avenue. South. A tasteful menu was served, consisting of ices, fruits and frappe. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. L.

The members of the Young Men's Literary Club assembled at the residence of Mr. Mansfield Douglass on State street last Monday night, April 19. The main feature of the evening was the Whittier program of which committee Mr. Geo, N. Frazier is chairman. This was a very interesting meeting and the program was highly enjoyed by all. Mr. Carter read "The Slave Ships" from Whittier in a very entertaining manner, and Mr. Johnson in no less pleasing manner read "The Witch of Usyndan." But what most captivated the emotional powers of the evening was the reading of Whittier's description of the Mexican War under Gen Zachary Taylor, title "Ximena," by Mr. Andrew J. Allison. Music was interspersed and Mr. Frazier delivered a short address on Whittier. The next meeting will be with Mr. Jos. E. Johnson, of 1041 Eighteenth Avenue North, at the usual time. Perfect attendance is urged. Business of importance. NASHVILLE HAS A BIG NEWS PAPER. The Greatest Asset to the Capital of Tennessee in the Way of a News- nage in the Nashville Globe.

Thousands of out-of-door pleasure seekers found last Sunday a most de- lightful day at Greenwood Park. Those who took advantage of the day to spend it at this resort found not only a pleasant retreat, but a most entertaining program at the Amuse- ment Hall. Practically the entire af- ternoon there was one steady’ stream of pleasure seekers wending their way to Greenwood, and it was past eight o'clock before they began to turn their attention homeward, The’ park presented a lovely appear- ance, and indeed every one who went out reports having had a_ pleasant day. It is fully known that the park will be open day and night for those who care to linger among the pleas. ant spots to be found in that vicinity. a eee PHYLLIS WHEATLY CLUB. The Phyllis Wheatly Club will meet with Mrs. A. L, Caruthers, 1044 Edgehill avenue, Thursday, April 29, at 3 p,m.

Tr-Club held the last meeting before the next social at the residence of Miss Loulse E. Douglass. The social which is to be given at the beautiful residence of Mr, and Mrs. Thomas Cash is to pe a grand one, The following officers and members were present: Mr, John Williams, president; Mr. Arthur Flemming, vice president; Miss Louise B, Doug: lass, treasurer; Miss Maggie E. Reed, secretary; Miss Janice Flemming, as- sistant secretary; Miss Berta Buford, chairman. The members were Miss Lelia Dillahunty, Miss Alberta Doug: lass, Messrs. Edward Dillahunty, Geo. Hargrave, William Green, Allen Dix- on, Ellis Reid, Overton Carter, Albert Allen, Clarence Maxwell and Will: jam House. The club guests were: Little Miss Alma Dillahunty and Mr. Robert M. Douglass. After all busi- ness was transacted the Misses Lou- ise and Alberta Douglass surprised the above with a delightful egg hunt. The first prize egg was found by Lit- tle Miss Alma Dillahunty, the second by Miss Janice Flemming. The prizes will be awarded later, — STATE BUSINESS LEAGUE. An agitation has been started among local business leagues for the organi- zation of a state league like other states. This has been encouraged by Charles H. Moore, one of the national organizers who has been touring through the state reviving quite a number of local leagues, He was twice in Nashville and his. re- port of thes uccess which attended his efforts in middle and west Tennes- see was indeed encouraging, The Nashville people are trying to bring the east and west together in a state ‘organization and will undoubtedly succeed. In reading the arguments that have been put forth by the league leaders one can see that it will en- large the organization. Tennessee is always represented in the national body as this city furnishes the chair- man of the Executive Board of the National Negro Business League in the person of Mr. J. C. Napier who has not missed a session of the na- tional body since its organization. There is scattered throughout the state, namely: Bristol, Knoxville, Chat: tanooga, Murfreesboro, ‘Tullahoma, Pulaski, Brownsville, Mason, Nash- ville, Jackson, Memphis and, in fact, every part of the state where there are real good organizations. So there would be no trouble in the form. ing of a state league if the call is made, As the national body will meet in Louisville in the month of August this step should be taken up. OBITUARIES, Miss Nellie Robeertson. The funeral of Nellie. Robertson was held last Friday afternoon at Lea Avenue Christian Chureh, Rev. Preston Taylor officiating. Nellie de- Parted this life last Wednesday, April 14, 1909. ‘Though young, she has gone to her reward, Having _pro- fessed a hope in Christ at a very young age. Often during her illness - she would say, “Mother, don’t worry about me, the Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want; he maketh me to’ lie down in green pastures.” Nellie’s was a beautiful life. Shall we forget her? No never. We shall ever remember her gentle disposition. Amiable, she won all; Intelligent, she charmed all; Fervent, she loved all; Gone, she saddened all, aa Mrs, Wilson. Mrs, Ann Love Wilson, wife of Rev. A, W. Wilson, died at her home at Rock City, Sunday evening, April 11, age 53 years. She leaves to mourn her loss four children, Mrs, Thomas Jennings, Miss Carrie’ Wilson, Mr. Robert Wilson and Mr. John Wilson, one sister and one brother, Miss Mary L. Love and Robt. Love, of Briersville. The funeral was held at the Rock City Baptist Church, Tues- day, April 13, at 2p. m., conducted by Dr, C. H, Clark. She was a member of Court of Calanthe, of Bast’ Nash- ville, for three years. The casket was covered with beautiful flowers, The remains were interred at Green. wood Cemetery. MADAM ANITA PATTI BROWN AT SPRUCE STREET. More than six hundred people lis- tened to the most excellent program rendered at the Spruce Street Bap- tist Church Monday night when Mad- am Anita Patti Brown made her last appearance. She was ably assisted by local talent, among which was the Fisk Quartette that gave pleas- ing rendition, Miss Helena A. Lowe, the accomplished daughter of Prof. Lowe, delighted the’ audience by her artistic touch on the piano,—so much so that she was compelled to respond to an encore. The same was true with Mr, A, N. Johnson, whose read. ings have pleased Nashville audien. ces more than once. Prof. Berry was the accompanist of Madam Brown, who was easily the star of the eve ning. The richness of her yotce brought lusty and continued applause Prof. Clemmons was another of th local talent that gave the large au dience a musical treat, as did Mr Mitchem in his readings from Dun bar. From all reports the last ap pearance of (Madam Brown proved tc be the most successful, both in point of attendance and interest. Her first appearance was at St, Paul, the sec: ond at Capers Chapel, the last being at Spruce Street. NOTICE TO CONGRESS DELE.

BUILDING UP AND TEARING DOWN. A man who has spent many years building up and perfecting a large business enterprise was recently heard to remark as follows: "I feel better this morning than I have felt for many years." When asked why, he said: "I am out of debt." Continuing he informed his hearers that every piece of machinery in his plant would be free from debt when the checks he was signing reached their destination. The statement reduced to its final analysis is a recapitulation of a whole life's work, covering a period of many years in which success to a certain degree has been attained. In a minute, the countless sacrifices made and the hardships endured to accomplish something for humanity passes through the mind. It is a moment when any man can well afford to be proud. No life is made in a day, for after a man has lived his three score years and ten, and has put forth his best efforts to do every duty that has befallen him, so much remains to be done that he feels but little has been accomplished. And so it is in every walk of life. In business, the professions, in art or science, the more one accomplishes the more he sees what might have been done. Building up is hard and tedious. It requires energy and determination. And when the cost is counted it makes the man look mean who would want to tear down. But the world is well supplied with the army of destroyers. All who tear down are not bent on doing mischief, but they cannot build up, try as they may; the only thing they can do is to put to naught what others have constructed. Then there are others who go about seeking something to destroy. This class of individuals is dreaded most. The people composing it come in every form and fashion, and often have done harm before even being suspected. The Negroes in all parts of this country would do well to bear in mind that the race to which they belong is not entirely free of these characters. The desease seems to have a special tendency to lurk around Nashville at this time, and it behooves all of those who desire to see the Negroes of Nashville continue to prosper and enjoy the fruits of their labor to be vigilant in the work of construction. Our local business leagues are not causing any one to lose any sleep on their account. They may awake some day to find the state organization formulated. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. APRIL 23. 1909 STATE REFORMATORY. If the bill for charitable institutions passes both houses of the General Assembly as recommended by the committee, an evil that has worked to the detriment of the people for many years will be put to naught. The committee has recommended that a reformatory be established by the state of juvenile Negro criminals. Their recommendations call for a seventy-five-acre farm to be cut off from the land owned by the state near the penitentiary, and that $8,000 be appropriated for a building, and funds for equipment and running expenses. This institution will make useful citizens of hundreds of boys that would be moulded into hard criminals if they were put in the penitentiary for the offenses they commit, for when a boy is sentenced to the state prison for two or three years he is turned back to freedom just as he is entering into manhood. He has no aspiration and in many cases feels keenly the stigma placed upon him by the stripes that he was forced to wear in his boyhood. This reformatory should be an inspiration to its inmates to do their best to make useful men in their communities when they shall be set at liberty. KEELFOOT LAKE. That the will of the people is law supreme has never been more clearly demonstrated than it is in the Reelfoot Lake case. This famous fishing and hunting resort has been kept before the public several years in one way or another. When a rich farmer purchased the lake sometime previous and decided to drain it for farming purposes the people protested, the owner was restrained from carrying out his plans, and the court decided the case in favor of the people. When the disturbance occurred there a few months ago that resulted in the death of a prominent citizen the state authorities stepped in and after a heroic effort restored order, but investigations have convinced the state administration that the lake should be purchased by the state that the people may get the benefits to be derived therefrom. W. H. COUNCILL. When Prof. W. H. Council, of Normal, Ala., breathed his last on Saturday, April 17, one of the most interesting characters the American continents have produced passed from the stage of action. He took up the work of industrial education at a time when it was very unpopular, and received severe condemnation from members of his own race for attempting such a thing. But he believed he was right, and time has proven the wisdom of his decision. Prof. Councill is dead to the flesh, but his influence will never die. The hundreds of thousands who have been benefited by his efforts will perpetuate his memory from generation to generation. THE GENERAL EDUCATIONAL BILL. The general educational bill has passed both houses of the General Assembly and is now awaiting the signature of Governor Patterson. The bill makes provisions for a Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes. The Globe has always argued that when the truth was put before the State Assembly that body would see that the Negro youth had a chance to make himself a good citizen. The amount stipulated for the normal school for Negroes may not be all that some had hoped for, but this is the initial move by the state, and a great step for the betterment of our educational conditions. THE AFTERMATH From recent occurrences it appears that the season for reaping has come for those who have been sowing the seeds of mob violence for many years. The reaction is significant in many respects. In two cases of lynching of white men that comes to mind now, one in Tennessee and one in Oklahoma, the victims were men of consid- erable wealth. One was lynched because he dared to transact business for a client; four were lynched while in prison awaiting trial for a charge of murder. The two cases cited are sufficient to prove that the reaction has set in in earnest. If Paul, the Biblical missionary character, should visit the place where he was when a great change in his life occurred, he would likely find the "Street called Straight" strewn with the bodies of those who are endeavoring to do what he was commissioned in Tarsus to do nearly two thousand years ago. The destruction of ten thousand people on a mere pretext indicates that a new method of conducting missions will have to be adopted in that portion of the Old World. Ex-President Roosevelt is nearing the jungles of Africa. He may not need his big stick in his new role, but a screen made of barbed wire would not be a bad thing to add to the equipment. They have some pestiferous insects in the Dark Continent. President Taft and Vice-President Sherman were attendants at a ball game in Washington recently. They would make a formidable pair of back-stoppers, if size counts for anything in baseball. The falling of the porch at an entertainment one evening this week was a very unfortunate affair. Great care should be exercised in constructing public buildings. Dr. Crum Nashville's guest June 21 COMMUNICATION. To the Nashville Globe: Prof. William H. Councill, President of Normal Agricultural and Mechanical College, located at Normal, Ala., died Friday of last week. In the death of this scholarly man the race loses a strong counsellor, an able exponent of industrial education, and a valiant defender. He was one of the strong men of the race who labored as long as his mental and physical powers would permit for its general uplift and well-being. He was one of those strong men whose efforts in behalf of his people in a large measure were materialized by his own indomitable courage into a realization of something enduring, something that will be lastingly beneficial to them for all time. In the passing of Prof. Councill not only do the people of the State of Alabama lose one of their most profound and foremost thinkers, but his people throughout the entire country; for verily he was a champion of all their causes. He was one of the men of his people who, owing to what he had done and was doing, could get the ear and eye of representative people, South and North, when he had a message to present in their interest, either by tongue or pen. He availed himself of many opportunities to present their claims to those in authority who had within their power the means to remedy many existing evils as applied only to the Negro people. William H. Councilill, though dead, will live on through the years in the lives, work and achievements of the young men and women who have sat at his feet and imbibed such instruction as will make them useful members of society and indispensable factors in the affairs of life. His own early hardships and privations were severe teachers, but they made of him a teacher of the first order, because none of their lessons were lost upon him. Out of his own personal experiences were born those sympathies and hardy traits of character that enabled him to be of the greatest service to the young people who followed his leadership. If for a man to live in the hearts he leaves behind is not to die, then William H. Councilill will live on through the ever-circulating years. And what he has accomplished in establishing the Normal Agricultural and Mechanical College is an earnest of the man, and that institution will stand an enduring monument to his life and memory. DIES IN CALIFORNIA. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Thomas, formerly of Nashville, lost their little son, Lloyd, last Saturday at 8:30 p. m. He was sick only a short while. "To us for sixteen anxious months His infant smile was given, And then he bade farewell to earth And went to live in heaven." RECORD BROKEN BY PROF. W. G. HYNES IN PULASKI, TENN. Spending a very successful week in Pulaski, Tenn., Prof. and Mrs. W. G. Hynes closed their engagement Saturday afternoon at the I. O. I. Hall for the benefit of the public school children. By request of the teachers of the school, Prof. Hynes and wife rendered a beautiful scenery to the many children that crowded the spacious hall and encores were given throughout the entertainment. The pupils went away rejoicing. The program rendered them was historical. On Sunday morning Prof and Mrs. Hynes left Pulaski, Tenn., for Decatur, Ala., for one week's engagement, after which they will start en route for home to recuperate and prepare for their trip to Memphis and Chicago. DR. J. P. FRIERSON ENTERTAINED. On his recent visit to the city Dr. John P. Frierson, Grand Lecturer of the Knights of Pythias of Tennessee, was entertained at Dutch supper by Mr. J. Wesley Maney and Perry H. Bonds. The young Pythians who enjoyed the many good pieces of advice as becoming useful and progressive citizens and instructions along the lines of Pythianism were Roy Irving, Frank Patterson, Hough Box, William smithson, Perry Bonds and J. Wesley Maney. CONFEDERATES HONOR AGED NEGRO. On Monday afternoon a beautiful tribute was paid at the last sad rites of Monroe Gooch, a veteran of the Confederate army, who died at his home on Sunday morning at four o'clock, after an illness of more than two years. Mr. Gooch was a man of advanced years, having gone through the Civil War, having witnessing all of its horrors, yet remaining faithful and true to the Southern Confederacy. He was a member of Capt. William Sykes' company, in the Forty-fifth Tennessee Infantry, serving throughout the war as a cook. During slavery he was a member of the Gooch family of Rutherford County. He had a remarkable record, and held the confidence and esteem of prominent men in the state of Tennessee, as well as being acquainted with the leaders of the Confederate Veterans in many of the Southern states. He is said to have visited practically every reunion save three, and at each annual occasion was accorded marked attention. The funeral services were held at Mason's Chapel, Lewis street, between Green and Fillmore streets, in South Nashville. A conspicuous and highly commendable feature of the services over this departed hero and citizen was the attention given him by Company B of the Confederate Veterans who had been requested by their officers (joined by hearty cooperation from the individual members of the company) to attend in a body. It will be remembered in Nashville in years to come. The interment was made at Greenwood Cemetery with military honors. The deceased is said to have been a native of Davidson County. The date of his birth is fixed at 1844. At the time of Hood's raid in Tennessee, Mr. Gooch is said to have had permission to visit his home, and could easily have remained, but he was so loyal to the Confederacy that he returned to his company, where he remained until the close of the war. DR. LEWIS' ITINERARY. Dr. W. A. Lewis, Secretary of the Preacher's Aid of the A. M. E. Church, left the city Monday, the 15th. for Staunton, Va., and the East, to visit the spring conference in the interest of his department. He will go to Baltimore, Jersey City and New York. Dr. Lewis was elected last May to his present position and he has pushed his work to success thus far. It is his duty, wherever practicable, to organize each church into a sick and death benefit society. In this he should have the support of every man and woman in the church. If the church ever expects to control and have a great influence over the masses, she must in a better way care for the sick among her members. OLDEST .RAILROAD EMPLOYEE Mr. Madison Whits Has Been Hcn by the L. & N, for Services. As a recognition of the faithful services rendered the company for more than half a century, the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Company has presented Mr. Madison White with a gold medal. Mr. White is now one of the oldest employees now with the company, having begun with them on the eighth day of June, 1857. Should he still be with them on the same date this year it will mean 52 years—a record that stands out almost unparal- lelled, hence the company, through some of the officials, presented him with this gold medal suitably engraved in honor of the occasion, the presentation taking place in the office of Local Agent George F. Clark of the L. & N. Former Agent C. W. Toliver, who is now holding down the job of General Agent of the company at Birmingham, made the presentation speech, to which the aged and trusted employee responded. Mr. White is not positive about his age, for he was born in slavery and the records were very unreliable at that time. From various signs of age, however, he has been able to figure out that he is somewhere near seventy. He has been with the L. & N. ever since it was a railroad, in fact, before it was a railroad, for he was a member of the construction gang that worked at the Nashville end of the road to meet Maj. Geddes and his crew from the Louisville end, the two crews meeting at Woodburn, Ky. Maj. Geddes is now Assistant Manager of the road, while Mr. White is in the local freight department, having been on hand at all important meetings that have been held in the history of the system which he has seen grow from a line of 187 miles to a system of 4,000 miles. The medal which he wears now in token of the esteem in which he is held is of gold and bears on its face this inscription: "Madison White, 50 years in service of L, & N. Railroad." Mr. White preferred this to the annual barbecues such as was given two years ago. DR. MUSE AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. Rev. Dr. Muse, of Jacksonville, III., will occupy the pulpit of the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, Rev. Dr. Ellington, pastor, on Sundav, April 25. Dr. Muse is a learned and forceful speaker. An opportunity is thus afforded to hear one of the most eloquent preachers in the Baptist denomination. ANNUAL SERMON OF THE K. O. LODGES COURTS AND GEMS OF THE I. O. I. The cool, crisp air of Easter did not deter the hundreds of loyal Immaculates from resorting of their usual custom of observing this, their annual thanksgiving day. The Lodges were not out in force as has been the custom in past years, but the sisters, ever faithful to every trust and obligation, were there and showed that they were loyal subjects and intended to so remain. The exercises were in charge of Sir A. B. Bradford, Master of Ceremonies. The chaplains, Bros. R. A. Pillow, S. Brown, C. A. Starks, and Mrs. S. J. Carter conducted their parts with much satisfaction. The courts and gems were under the supervision of Mrs. I. E. Dowell and Mrs. Martha McFerrin. St. Paul chapel never looked prettier than on this occasion. The church, which has undergone extensive repairs, was tastefully decorated with potted plants for the occasion. The pastor, Rev. Sampson Brooks, welcomed hte Order in his usual pleasant manner and the choir, with Dr. J. I. Watson as chorister and Mrs. M. A. Sanders as organist, furnished the music. The solo by Miss Alberta Ross was highly complimented. Dr. R. F. Boyd, State Grand Master, addressed the Order and showed it to be on a strong financial basis, ready to meet all claims that justly come before the Board of Endowment. The address was full of logic and was frequently applauded. Dr. Boyd has made an exceptional Grand Master as he is widely known for his many charitable deeds and his broadness of heart. The sermon by Elder Preston Taylor was short and to the point. Dr. Taylor is one of the most eloquent pulpit orators in Nashville and his sermon was greatly enjoyed by all true Immaculates. The collection was not what was desired, but resulted in the special hall collection of $53.30 and the penny collection was $12.32. WEDDING PARTY ENTERTAINED AT HENDERSONVILLE. Mr. and Mrs. Milton Beard entertained Sunday at their home at Hendersonville in honor of their daughter, Sue Ella, who was married to Mr. George Sloan, April 14. The bridal party arrived in Hendersonville on the 12:2 train. An elaborate wedding dinner of six-courses was served at 2 p. m. The bridal party consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Beard, Misses Mittie L. and Ida M. White, Mr. Geo. Dyson Beard, Mr. Ernest R. Alexander, Mrs. Josie W. Banks and Miss Annie T. Randolph, of Gallatin. Mr. Will L. Fite served the party in a very pleasing manner.

D., who was recently elected from this state. Dr. Claiborne will have the distinction of being one of the few of the race to fill this position. Aside from this he is president of the Educational Board of the Baptist University which is fostered by the state. After this Convention adjourns the same representative will go to Nashville, Tennessee, to attend the Sunday-School Congress, representing this church district. GEORGIA AND FLORIDA COMING. Last week's developments around the Congress headquarters brought out the information that two other states had practically decided on bringing their delegation to the Sunday-School Congress. These states are Georgia and Florida. There are quite a number of leaders of both states, men of prominence and men with much influence. Yet, they will no doubt unite with one or two leaders of each delegation, choose and come over the best route. Rev. F. W. Lancaster, D. D., of Jacksonville, Fla., announces that he will come from the southern portion of the state and points about Jacksonville with a large delegation, while Rev. J. H. May, D. D., of Savannah, Ga., will bring his delegation, starting from Savannah and coming directly through the state. He will be joined by others. Dr. May is a Tennessean and therefore will be very anxious to bring many visitors to his state. Y. M. C. A. Are the Negroes of Nashville ready for an association for their boys and young men?

On Thursday afternoon the 15th inst. the long-talked-of game between the Shelbyville Ramblers and Turner Normal College happened on the Turner Normal College Campus. The Ramblers appeared on our campus in Brown. They played good ball, yet during the whole nine innings of the first game, Cartwright had them at his own mercy. Scores were 11 to 9 in favor of Turner Normal College. They would have suffered a great defeat, but Turner being over anxious made several wide throws. The second game was called at 4:10 p. m. At the end of the 5th inning score was 6 to 2 in favor of the Ramblers, and the game was called. The second game is yet to be played. Purple and orange were floating everywhere. Herbert Cowan, our 3rd baseman, drove the horse hide to deep center for a home run. We all admire him, for he is noted for his heavy batting.

The extensive preparations that are being made for the Golden Jubilee number of the Sunday-School Times, which is published at 1031 Walnut street, Philadelphia, Pa. convinces everyone that knows about that able Sunday-school paper that this edition will eclipse anything ever attempted. One of the assistant editors, in the person of Henry G. Talmage, has written to the Secretary of the Sun- day-School Congress movement, of this city, assuring him that a deal of information and facts concerning the fourth annual session of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress and YoYung People’s Chautauqua, which will be held in Nashville from June 9-14, will be published in the Golden Jubilee edition, at which time the Sunday-School Times will celebrate its fiftieth anniversary. When such an able paper as the Sunday-School Times volunteers to give out informa- tion about a meeting of this kind, it argues much for the success of the movement, Be gt NOTICE.
