THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. IV. NEGRO VICTORY ARBITRATION BOARD DENIES DEMAND OF White Firemen on Georgia Railroad. REFUSES TO GIVE THEM SENORITY BECAUSE OF THEIR COLOR—REQUIRES THAT NEGROES BE PAID SAME WAGES AS WHITE MEN—PREMIUM PUT ON INTELLIGENCE—PROVISION MADE FOR PROMOTION OF WHITE FIREMEN TO ENGINEERS—CONGRESSMAN HARDWICK DISSENTS ON EVERY POINT FAVORABLE TO BLACK MEN—WHITE MEN BECOMING DISGRUNTLED. Atlanta, Ga.—The Georgia Railroad Strike Arbitration Board on Saturday, night, June 26, decided against the seniority of white firemen over Negroes. The arbitrators, however, placed a premium on intelligence among firemen, which it is hoped by the white firemen will ultimately result in the gradual elimination of all Negroes. The decision was worded guardedly, and did not in any case deal directly with the race problem. Their most direct reference to the seniority problem was in the words: "We find against proposition C." This proposition read: "All firemen, when hired, shall be placed in freight yards or hostling service, and senior white firemen shall have preference of engines and runs." The awards made the pay of Negro firemen equal to that of whites. The negroes have been receiving from about 20 to 50 cents per day less than whites. The award in full follows: A—The Georgia Railroad, when using Negroes as locomotive firemen on the road or in the yards, or as hostlers or as hostlers' helpers, shall pay them the same wages as white men in similar positions. (Concurred in by Messrs. Herbert and Barrow. Hardwick dissented.) B—Firemen in the line of promotion to the position of engineer shall have three years' experience before being promoted to the position of engineer, and shall be promoted in the order of their seniority, provided they are able to pass all reasonable requirements and examinations. If they refuse or fail to pass the first examination, they will be reduced to freight service without losing their seniority, and the next senior man in turn will be called on to pass. Failing on the second examination, they will be reduced to the bottom of the extra list, or disposed of as the company desires. Firemen now in the service who are physically incapacitated for service will not be subject to this rule. When firemen are promoted to the position of engineer, they shall be given a certificate of promotion, signed by the engineer. (Concurred in by all three arbitrators.) The decision against proposition C was by Herbert and Barrow, with Hardwick favoring it. D—This proposition covered only minor points in dispute and was concurred in by all arbitrators. E—In assigning vacancies to firemen, seniority alone shall not control, though it may be considered in connection with the efficiency and with the necessity, where it exists, of giving experience to candidates for promotion to the position of engineer. (Concurred in by all arbitrators.) F—The arbitrators unanimously concurred against demand F of the firemen. which was that they be not required to throw switches and flag NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1909. street croosings except in cases of emergency. Mr. Hardwick, in a dissenting opinion from proposition A, fixing Negroes' wages the same as those of whites, said: "Insofar as the above finding permits the continued employment of Negro firemen, I dissent, because I believe from the evidence that such employment is a menace to the safety of the traveling public. Insofar as such finding requires that when Negroes are so employed they shall receive, wages equal to those paid white men. I concur, believing that such requirement, by removing the principal incentive to their employment, will result in the speedy elimination of this cheaper labor and a consequent improvement of the service." The arbitrators reached their decision after about three hours' conference, but it required a long time to draw up the agreement. GEORGIA RAILROAD STRIKE AWARDED BY ARBITRATION BOARD DECLARED SATISFACTORY TO BROTHERHOOD. Atlanta, Ga., June 27.—The award made by the Board of Arbitration in the Georgia Railroad strike case is declared to be satisfactory to the road, as well as to the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. No appeal will be taken by either side. Vice-President Ball, speaking for the white firemen, said tonight; "The firemen never asked for the discharge of the Negroes, from the Georgia Railroad. When the road ruled that both races should receive the same pay for the same work, I am inclined to think they gave us all we asked, eliminating that sincerity section. When you place the white man and the Negro on the same pay basis, it is certain that the employer will secure the most competent labor, not the cheapest." The Negro firemen were highly pleased when they learned to-day that they are to get a substantial increase in pay, which they had not even thought of demanding. ARBITRATION AWARDED ANGERS FIREMEN ON GEORGIA RAILROAD ARE HIGHLY DISPLEASED WITH IT. Atlanta, Ga., June 28.—Dissatisfaction with the finding of the Georgia Railroad Arbitration Board, which permitted Negro firemen to continue work and denied white firemen seniority, was voiced to-day by A. P. Kelly, Third Vice-President of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. He said that the award by making equal the wages of white and Negro firemen made it possible to lower the wages of the white men to meet the Negro scale; instead of raising the Negro's wages to meet the white scale. He said that such seniority of whites over Negroes as existed before the award is destroyed and in his opinion promotion will depend entirely upon selection by the officials of the road. Mr. Kelly said: "Mr. Herbert and Mr. Barrow have done more for the Negro than Lincoln and Grant and Sherman and all the rest ever did." The firemen claim that an increase of the Negroes' wages to the amount paid white firemen would mean an added expense of $6,300 a year to the Georgia Railroad. KEEPING NEGRO SWITCHMEN. Houston and Texas Central Refuses Demands Made by the White Men. Houston, Tex., June 27.—Following the Georgia Railroad's refusal to grant the firemen's demand over the race question, the Houston & Texas Central Railroad to-day answered the demands of the switchmen in Houston and refused to displace Negroes for whites in the yards. The Negroes to be retained were hired when many years ago the white men struck and formed the "Mutual Aid Association." BIRTHDAY PARTY. There was a beautifully arranged birthday party given at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac McGroom, Monday, June 28, in honor of her little niece, Louise Evelyn Scruggs. Those to enjoy the occasion were eighteen of her little girl friends: Cerella Brown, Bertha and Alma Dunn, Ruby Edwards, Elizabeth Fite, Nettle Harris, Connie and Leroy Hendley, Lilian Dixon, Alleen Hall, Alberta Watkins, Florence Inman, Connie King, Reba Watson, Ruth Upshaw, Eva M. Thompson, Florence Sango, Susie Wade, Irene and Louise Scruggs. DR. J. P. CRAWFORD, Grand Chancellor, Nashville, Tenn. Dr. Crawford has made an enviable record as leader of the great host of Negro Pythians in the State of Tennessee. His marvelous success is attracting the attention of Pythians all over the country, and the Supreme Lodge which convenes in August, will more than likely honor this stalwart Tennessean with a good position in the Supreme body. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS NEXT TO INVADE THE CITY Coming to Hold Grand Session Early in July. MEETING PROMISES TO BE LARGEST IN HISTORY OF ORDER—NOT DAUNTED BY THREATS OF WHITE PYTHIANS—LOCAL COMMITTEE HAS ABOUT COMPLETED ARRANGEMENTS—LITTLE DIFFICULTY TO DECIDE WHERE SESSIONS WILL BE HELD—ODD FELLOWS AUDITORIUM MAY BE SECURED—GRAND CHANCELLOR CRAWFORD'S CANDIDACY TO BE PUT ON GREAT BOOM. The coming of the Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias of the State of Tennessee to the city of Nashville on the 21st of this month promises to be another big drawing card. Indeed, Nashville has entertained some distinguished guests during the past few months, yet as hostess she will be equal to the occasion sustaining her former record, and entertain the gallant knights who will invade the City of Rocks within the next few days in royal splender. All the preparation necessary for a grand lodge meeting is under way, in fact, according to a statement from the chairmen of the Entertainment Committee and the Committee on Management, "all things are ready." If rumor has anything to do with it the Grand Lodge this year promises to excel, both in interest and attendance, any former session. There are many things on hand, notwithstanding the threatened legal action against the Grand Lodge and things will go on with increased activity. The membership, according to the reports of the various subordinate lodges, has increased upwards of 10 per cent. The Endowment Board has reported from time to time an increased amount of cash, affording protection to every Pythian and a guaranty of the settlement of every claim. The delegates, who will attend the meeting, represent the business and professional men from all over the state. It is learned that corresponding messengers from Kentucky, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and other states as far West as Texas, will be in Nashville, as the Tennessee Grand Lodge is coming upon the arena of prominence by the fact that it promises to produce another supreme officer. Just whether this is true or not depends upon the showing Ten --- 51st AVE. PYTHIAN TEMPLE, Nashville, Tenn., Grand Lodge Headquarters. nessee can make in this grand session and the impression made upon the delegates who will attend the Supreme Lodge. The first, and possibly most important obstacle to overcome in the Grand Lodge meeting here, is said to be preparing a place where these gallant Knights can meet and conduct their deliberations. It is true that the local lodges own a piece of magnificent property on Fifth avenue, North, known as the Pythian Temple, but it is calculated that this building is not spacious enough in which to hold a grand session, thus the auditorium idea bobs up for discussion as it has time and again when such gatherings meet in Nashville. The only possible solution to the problem, said a prominent Pythian several days ago, is to hold the annual session of the Grand Lodge in the Odd Fellows' Auditorium at 447 Fourth avenue, North, which is the most spacious place available for the Pythians at this time. The Entertainment Committee and the Committee of Arrangement are looking after these detail matters with a view to adjusting them in a suitable and satisfactory way. The uniform rank of the Pythians is expected to come prepared to give Nashville a touch of beauty as well as some new military tactics. A grand and imposing military drill to be pulled off at Greenwood Park, is one of the rumored features. The beautiful parade grounds at this resort afford an excellent opportunity to show to the best advantage the plumed Knights in brilliant uniform. They will be putting on at this time their best tactics preparatory to taking in the Supreme Lodge which meets soon in Kansas City. It seems that the election of new officers will be a secondary matter. Judging from rumors allot there is not such a scramble for office "The good of the Order" seems to be paramount and all absorbing, however the meeting itself will tell just what is uppermost in the minds of the Pythians in the State of Tennessee. REGISTRATION OF STATISTICS. John Hamel, Assistant Secretary of the State Board of Health, returned Wednesday from Knoxville, where he has been conferring with the school authorities with reference to the registration of births and deaths, authorized by the vital statistics bill. In the cities it is necessary for the State Board of Health to secure the co-operation of the city school authorities, as well as the County Clerks. The enumeration of the school census began throughout the State Wednesday. Under the law the enumerators will also collect statistics as to births and deaths beginning June 30, the enumeration blanks having been furnished by the State Board of Health. Mr. Hamel has been directly in charge of the work. He has arranged every detail, and thinks that the collection of statistics will be in every way complete and authentic. When the enumerator calls at your house give him the information asked for. Miss Mollie Brown left the city last week for Springfield, Tenn., to visit her parents. DARK HORSE WINS OUT IN RAGE FOR PRESI- DENGY Successor Chosen to Prof. William H. Councill. COMMISSIONERS OF NORMAL AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL COLLEGE SETTLE ON PROF. WALTER S. BUCHANAN—YOUNGEST ONE IN THE RACE FOR THE POSITION—HIGHLY COMPETENT TO GOVERN THE INSTITUTION—GRADUATE OF AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL DEPARTMENT OF .HARVARD UNIVERSITY—CITIZENS OF THE STATE WELL PLEASED WITH THE SELECTION. The common saying that nothing is certain in life has been clearly exemplified in the action of the board of control of the noted agricultural and mechanical college located at Norman, Ala., which was founded by the late Prof. W. H. Councill and presided over by him until his death a short time ago. The general trend was that some one of the many men who are well advanced in years would be selected, but the board showed a spirit of progressiveness when they selected the young and brilliant Prof. Walter S. Buchanan to the presidency of the Agricultural & Mechanical College to succeed the late Prof. Wm. H. Councill. It was a task of very considerable magnitude that confronted the Commissioners of the College in the selection of a new President for the institution. The vacancy was indeed very hard to fill. The difficulty was so considerable as to cause delay in the appointment, but this delay was rewarded by the presentation of many candidates from this and other states. Among them were men eminent for their learning and ability, and who possessed excellent qualifications for teaching and government. So many good men were presented that the difficulty was changed to one of choice from so many. From the number a dozen good presidents could have been chosen. The contest between several was very close. The local Commissioners were assisted in their task by His Excellency, Governor B. B. Comer and the State Superintendent of Education, Hon. Harry S. Gunnels, honorary member of the board. The Board feels that they have been No.26. 2 forunate in being able to secure the services of the one they have selected, and feel assured that the citizens of the County and State will manifest much interest and satisfaction in the appointment of Prof. Walter S. Buchanan to the presidency of Normal College when they realize the brilliant qualities of the young man. He is the youngest man whose candidacy was presented. He has the opportunity of a life of usefulness before him; he is equipped with a good education; is a graduate of several institutions, among them the Agricultural and Mechanical Department of Harvard University; his ideas are those of modern agriculture and mechanics, and he realizes that advancement in these departments should be emphasized in the institution, as especially adapted to the present needs of the masses. He is a man of energy, and it is believed that he will use this energy, not only to maintain the high character of this institution, but to greatly increase its usefulness by preparing its students to go from its walls finished workmen and useful citizens. This institution is under the fostering care of the State, and is affording an opportunity for the young of the colored race to obtain not only the education pertaining to its Normal Department, but also to the Department of labor in the shop and field that will enable the members of both sexes to obtain good wages and place their services in demand. It is to this end the controlling Board has selected its President and bespeaks for him the friendship and support of all friends of the College. MONUMENT TO A WORTHY WOMAN. Tennesseans who have wrought well, and especially those who have lived for a time in Nashville and passed from the stage of action are not always soon forgotten. This was evidenced last Sunday when Miss Martha V. Webster, the National Grand Princess of the S. M. T.'s of the World, with headquarters at Louisville, Ky., unveiled at Greenwood Cemetery a monument that had been erected through her efforts by the National Grand Temple, to the memory of the late Mrs. Georgia A. Henderson. The fact that Mrs. Henderson's work in this great secret organization, of which she was the first National Grand Princess, having served eleven consecutive terms, was highly beneficial and elevating to the Lodges, was brought out with force and emphasis by Miss Webster during her stay in the city. Two of the children of Mrs. Henderson, Mrs. Blanche Gentry and Mr. Duncan Henderson, were here from Chicago to witness this tribute to their beloved mother's efforts. Miss Webster, who is a woman of rare ability, was the principa speaker. Although a teacher in the city schools of Louisville, she fills an exalted position and follows third in the list, coming in close succession to the late Mrs. Henderson. After Mrs. Henderson's death came Miss Clara Skull, of Galveston, then came Miss Webster. The monument will stand for ages to speak of the wonderful achievements of a woman whom all Nashville was proud to honor. It is made of Georgia grey granite 5 THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY.

During the week Miss Webster visited many points of interest and while she was going the rounds she was accorded marked attention by Nashville's business and professional men and women. [Name] DR. J.

No grander scene in the way of interior adornment of a Grand Lodge session has been witnessed in the State of Tennessee, and possibly not in any other Southern State, than that which met the gaze of the delegates and fraternal messengers of the 39th annual session of the Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Tennessee, which convened last Monday at the Odd Fellows' Auditorium on Fourth avenue, North, when they looked with amazement, mingled with delight on the beautiful and well-made suit of Masonic furniture that had been prepared and presented to them by the Church Supply Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board. This suit of furniture consists of one Worthy Master's chair, 4 feet 9 inches in height, made of golden oak, quarter-sawed; one Senior Warden's chair, 4 feet 2 inches high; and one Junior Warden's chair, 4 feet 2 inches high, with massive back and large arms. The three chairs are upholstered in the grand lodge color, royal blue, and each chair has the Masonic emblem, the compass, square and the letter "G," the altar, triangular in shape, with a Masonic eblem on each side, and a royal blue plush Bible rest, together with the necessary columns and gavel, which were used by the presiding officers during the sessions. Many compliments were passed upon the neat arrangement of the Grand Lodge room and the beautiful set of furniture. The Supply Department was highly complimented for this generous act as well as for the make-up of the furniture. An appropriate set of resolutions passed by the Grand Lodge commending the act and the generous proffer MEMPHIANS INVADE NASHVILLE. Monday at 11 o'clock a special car reached Nashville over the N., C. & St. L., containing Memphians direct from the plucky city by the side of Lookout Mountain en route to the proud Bluff City situated on the Father of Waters. Their stopover in the state capital was one of continual pleasure and sightseeing. Accompanying the delegation was quite a number of distinguished Nashville men, who proceeded to make it pleasant by first giving the entire party breakfast at Gary's Cafe. During the day they were the guests of Mr. J. Thomas Turner and Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, D. D., of the B. Y. P. U. Board. They were taken trolly car riding to all parts of the city, going to the extreme west to see the new penitentiary, north, beyond Fisk University, south, taking in Walden and Meharry, and east, viewing the new Roger Williams University. They invaded the plant of the Baptist Publishing Board, which was the center of attraction and the main reason for the stopover. In the evening they were the guests of Drs. W. S. Ellington and R. H. Boyd, of the National Baptist Publishing Board, being given six o'clock dinner at Gary's Cafe, and after a sumptuous repast they were taken to the Palms, where ices were served, and from there to the Negro Doll Drill at the Spruce Street Baptist Church. The party consisted of the following: C. J. Neal, Wm Lane, L. C. Moore, Rev. W. F. Lake, Rev. Tobe Hutchins, Rev. S. A. Ownes, Mr. Thomas Watkins, Mr. C. A. Washington, Rev. E. J. Echols, Mr. R. M. Casey, Miss C. E. Lewis, Mrs. Hattle McMichael, Miss Emma McMichael, Miss L. E. Campbell, Miss Sadie Saunders, Miss Mary J. Williams, Miss Margie Franklin, Mrs. Mamie Woods, Miss Mattie E. Porter, Miss Lizzie Jones, Misses Sadie and Ella Green, Mrs. Ella Harding, Miss Ella D. Thomas, C. M. Davls, Mrs. E. W. Wells, Clarksville, Tenn.; Miss Ruth Garnett, Clarksville, Tenn.; Miss Rubey Overton, Clarksville, Tenn.; Miss Kimbrough, Clarksville, Tenn.; Rev. Wm. Winfield, Humboldt. Tenn. At 11:30 the special car left for Memphis, voting that Nashville was the princess of entertainers. TENNESSEE BAPTISTS. During this month all of the Baptist churches of the State of Tennessee will send representatives or letters to their State Convention which is to be held with the Metropolitan Baptist Church in Memphis. Nashville is expected to send its usual large delegation, in fact, according to the official roster, it will seem that the convention proper will go down from Nashville to Memphis to open the convention. It was only last year, when they met in this city, at the Spruce Street Baptist Church that practically all the choice places were taken by residents of Nashville, President, Secretary, Treasurer and the Superintendent of Missions. The program for the state meeting is already made up, yet the educational feature this year, as in former years, will come in for its share of consideration. The Baptists of the state point with pride to three colleges directly under the control of the State Convention namely: the Nelson Merry, at Jefferson City, representing the Eastern division of the state; Howe College, at Memphis, representing the Western division of the state; and Roger Williams University, of this city, representing the Middle division. With these three colleges, the reports to be made and plans to be formed, sufficient interest will be kept up to make the State Convention interesting from opening to close. Memphis is, indeed, growing to be a convention center and the sixty-odd Baptist churches of the Bluff City have planned great things, according to statements made by Memphians who passed through the city this week, everything is moving along in the interest of the convention. The biggest report will, no doubt, be made by the Educational Department under the financial management of Rev. Wm. Haynes, who is also President of the State Convention, and is now devoting his entire time to educational work. Will Furnish Music at GREENWOOD PARK, SUNSHINE HOME NOTES. Sister J. P.

The arrival of a special cargo of material for the National Negro Doll Company, which was announced in the daily papers last week by the Collector of Customs for the city of Nashville, created no little stir. It simply means that the National Negro Doll Company is preparing to handle all orders coming from any part of the world for Negro dolls during the coming holidays. In order to be prepared "we have started in time," said the manager this week. They announced, only last week, increased orders and shipments to various parts of the United States.

But the biggest thing yet to be put on by this business concern will be the Negro Doll opening that is scheduled to take place in the early fall. Dolls of every hue representing the dark races will be shown and the public is to be invited to inspect and criticise. According to the trend of opinion, criticism is no longer apparent, admiration and approval are all that can be heard on every side. The sizes of these dolls vary somewhat from those of last year in that they range from 6 to 36 inches in height. The doll company has also made arrangements with the two large express companies in Nashville to deliver these dolls to any part of the United States, express charges prepaid, for the regular retail price, notwithstanding the enormous amount it takes to pay the charges on the thousands of dolls that will go out from here with in the next three or four months. FOURTH OF JULY SERVICES. The Fourth of July will be celebrated Sunday at the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, with services appropriate to the occasion. Rev. Mr. W. S. Ellington will preach a sermon Sunday morning, "The Passing of the Saloons and the American Spirit." Special invitation extended to visitors. ENJOYS THE HOSPITALITY OF MISS OVERTON.

The ceremony being attended only by relatives and a few friends. The ceremony was performed by Rev. S. Jackson in the parlor which was decorated with pink and white hydrangeas. The bride was given away by Dr. E. W. S. Hammond, Dean of Walden University. There were no attendants. Mrs. Flowers was daintily gowned in an embroidered princess mull. The groom wore a handsome gray suit Oliver M. M. POITIER MARIE DENIS DENIS J. THOMAS TURNER Grand Attorney and white kid gloves. Mrs. S. Jackson presided at the piano, playing Mendelssohn's wedding march and the Flower Song during the ceremony. The happy couple received several beautiful presents and also the best wishes of their many friends. Mr. Shedrick Joiner and Mary E. Price were married last week in Chicago.

Miss Lillie Clay was maid of honor and wore a cream colored sheathe gown and carried a bouquet of American Beauties. Mr. F. C. Sisney was best man. Prof. Henry A. Clemmons, of Nashville played the wedding march. A number or handsome presents were received. A notable home, wedding was solemnized on Wednesday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Thaddeus Cowan, 1818 Jefferson street. It was that of Miss Willa Harris Mc Broom of this city, to Mr. John A. Thompson, of Chicago, Ill. Only the most intimate friends were present In spite of the effort and desire not to have a large crowd, the extreme popularity of the bride caused the plans to be upset, and the spacious Cowan home was filled with admiring friends and relatives to witness the tying of the nuptial knot, which took place at 9 p. m. in the front partor, which had been beautifully decorated for the occasion—pink and white being the col- COMPANY "G" UNDER THE COMMAND OF Captain Henry H.

When Miss Eddie Dickerson began to play the popular wedding march of Mendelssohn the bridal party led by Mr. Anderson T. Landers, groomsman, who wore a black Prince Albert, accompanied by Miss Martha C. Grisham, bride's maid, who carried a basket of flowers passed out of the dining-room through the reception hall and into the parlor. Then came the groom, Mr. John A. Thompson, in full dress, attire and the best man, Rev. Henry A. Boyd. Then came Miss Janie E. Benson, the maid of honor, bearing a lovely basket of choice flowers. Following Miss Benson came little Cecelia Keeling, flower girl, ladened with choice flowers. The bride entered, leaning on the arm of her un- 1 cle, Mr. Charles C. Coonn, of Franklin, Tenn. She was gowned in a creation of cream colored dutchess satin, trimmed in lace and spangles. She carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses and maiden hair ferns, her vell being held with orange blossoms and her only ornament was a diamond broach, the gift of the groom. They took their place under a wedding bell which was suspended near the double windows where they were united with the ring ceremony. The happy couple left at 3:15 a.m. Thursday for their new home, Chicago, Ill. They will reside at 5604 Grove avenue. The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thaddeus Cowan, one of the oldest families of the city, a graduate of Fisk University and a teacher in the public school. The groom is in the postal service, being a clerk in the Chicago Post Office. The presents were numerous and valuable. NEW ACTS READY SATURDAY. "We are expecting the first copy of the Acts of 1909 to be out Saturday," said Secretary of State Goodloe, in answer to an inquiry Wednesday. The copies were expected several weeks ago, but the publication was delayed for several reasons. One was that the Legislature adjourned late; that a large number of bills were passed, and it was late in the session before it was known whether the private and general acts should be bound separately. An advanced copy of the published acts in Secretary Goodloe's office shows that the acts this year will be bound in a volume as large, if not larger, than the acts of 1907. It is probable that the acts will be ready for distribution next week. ENTERTAINED FOR MR. DOCK Mc GAVOCK. Miss Katie Polk entertained a few friends last Thursday night at the beautiful home of Miss Mattie Scott, 1304 Harding street, in honor of Mr. Dock McGavock.

FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1909. THE STATE FAIR. The manager of the Tennessee Colored Fair Association has announced that they will hold their second annual fair in September. We note some changes in the management this year, and the opinion of those best able to judge that the exhibits will far exceed those of last year from every point of view. The committees have gone to work at their respective duties, and unusual activity is noticeable. The Negroes of Tennessee ought to have a fair second to none; they can do it, and we believe they will. Many of the counties in the state hold fairs every year, and the officials of these county institutions, in most instances, claim to have success financially and are showing to the world what the Negroes of Tennessee are capable of doing. If the counties can have fairs, there ought not to be any difficulty in interesting the local organizations in a state organization. These exhibitions are not solely for pleasure; in fact, the prime object is not to have a big frolic, but to stimulate the people to greater endeavor. It is not generally known what the Negroes of Tennessee are capable of doing, nor what they have already done, and it would be a wise move to make it known. No better way has been discovered to exhibit the products of the farm and mill, and to display achievements in art and science than at a fair. Tennesseeans are noted for doing things in proper style, and we are confident they will sustain their reputation in this enter prise. RIGHT TRIUMPHS. The settlement of the Georgia Railroad strike can well be considered a signal victory for the Negroes of the United States when it is remembered that every member of the arbitration board was a white man, and that the complainants were all white men, and members of a powerful labor organization. But the South has always guaranteed to her black citizens the opportunity to work, and the decision of the arbitration board merely substantiates that guarantee. This victory comes at an opportune time. Hoke Smith, the vilest Negro hater Georgia has ever produced, by a decision of the white democrats of that state, had a few hours previous surrendered the gavel of chief authority to Governor Brown. With Hoke Smith deposed and the right to earn a living sustained, the black citizens of the THE NASHVILLE GLOBE Cracker State have just cause to feel reasonably secure, as far as such applies to Negroes. There is one point in the decision of the board that seemed to tickle the white firemen and to create within them the belief that all Negroes would ultimately be eliminated from the positions of firemen, and that was the stress put on intelligence. We believe the board meant just what they said. If the black men do not study to improve in their work, and if they allow white men to crowd them out by virtue of his superior knowledge, they will not deserve the positions that have been kept in their reach. The Negroes will do well, however, to keep this point in view, and ever strive to do their work as good, and if possible, better than the white men. They must prepare themselves to stand technical examinations, for they will be put to test on every hand. It is the duty of the Negro press and the ministry, and the teachers, and the leaders to constantly call attention to this matter. The fight for the advantage has just begun, and the fittest will survive. What is true in the case here cited is true all over this country. The struggle for bread is growing fiercer and fiercer every day, and the Negro is singled out to be pushed back and back to starvation, and finally to degradation and thievery. Sympathy will have no part in this final struggle; he who is best prepared for the test will win out. The case just settled in Georgia was not decided on sympathy, but merit, and the Negroes were retained, not because they are black firemen, but because they are the best firemen. COMMUNICATION Last Wednesday night at 12 o'clock the State-Wide bill went into effect. All the day there was unusual activity on the uptown streets. The amusing scenes were numerous. One colored brother was seen with a jug so large he could not carry it in his hand, so he had secured a wheelbarrow and was rolling his refreshments to their temporary resting place. Many other antics were indulged in, but all seemed to be in a pleasant humor. Some are yet predicting that the state will be greatly damaged financially. This conclusion comes to some as a natural consequence. Some men are actually out of a job, but if these same parties will exert themselves a little they will be able to find a job somewhere. Liquor is not a necessity. It is classified by some as a luxury. The man able to have luxuries can get it. The man not able has no business with it. It is the poor man and his family that suffers by existence of saloons, and they are better off without them. Dr. W. D. Crum is accused of having made it rain on the day he was to speak here. One contemporary went so far as to say that the committee attempted to swindle the people out of their money, and that Dr. Crum failed to draw a crowd. Those who were in this city on the occasion referred to know that on the day set for the celebration it rained, and the conditions were the same the next day. As to the admission, the people knew that they would have to pay to hear Dr. Crum speak, and they would have greeted him in large numbers had the weather been agreeable nion, the people have to pay leak, and they in large numbeen agreeable. Do not eat, sleep or work in a room occupied by a consumptive, until it has first been thoroughly disinfected. Do not use bed, bed-clothing, or towels of the consumptive until thoroughly disinfected. On the 30th of June, Wednesday of the week, the enumerators began taking the school statistics. It is claimed that colored people are backward in giving the desired information to such officials. This should not be the case. It is hoped that every pastor of a church or others in a position to inform the people will explain to them the importance attached to taking a census of any kind. drivers began tak- it.

To The Nashville Globe: Certainly there is nothing so contemptible as meanness, downright meanness, absolute meanness of heart based on prejudice to and hate of worthiness and meritorious ambition on the part of our fellowmen to win their way in the world's strenuous strife. But there are men on this mundane sphere who are the guilty possessors of just such meanness of heart because their little natures are so small they admit of none of the finer feeling and noble sentiments born of a just sense of the higher humanities. More is the pity that such men worm their way into high official positions are their true calibre is known by unsuspecting supporters. It requires but a short time after they are clothed in a little brief authority before their true nature begins to manifest itself, throwing off its mask and with it discretion, saying by unwise words and still unwiser acts, "Who dare question me, my words or acts, intrenched as I am?" Their friends are ashamed at first to regulate such egos to the limbo of forgotten things, so they are given a longer lease of official life than would be tolerated in any other sphere of action. This should not be, because it retards the march of progress in the communities where such men rule or govern affairs to almost an irreparable extent. It is a blessed thing as it so appears from political changes that have been made in the last year or two that the South has at last awakened to truth of the damage capable of being wrought by putting such men at the head of affairs who stand for nothing higher than bitter racial tirades and racial antagonism. For the governor of a state to sink to the depth of advocating and urging the best education for one race and advising the giving of next to none to another is the best index of the depth and breadth of his statesmanship. Such is true of one who on account of his narrowness especially with regard to men of his own race who differed with him in opinion, has been displaced by a man who was unknown before in politics, but began in the eleventh hour a campaign against the encumbent and defeated him ingloriously. This was and is an unmistakable commentary on the unfitness of that governor to guide the destinies of a great state. May all such men be driven into the fit and eloquent asylum of private citizenship leaving the scepter of authority and government in better and wiser hands. ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS — HOW PREVENT ITS SPREAD. Some Points from Dr. G. J. Starnes of San Antonio, Tex. Do not spit on the floors, walls, chair-boards, or side walks. Do not spit in old rags, handkerchiefs, or cloth of any kind and leave but burn immediately. Dn not use utensils of the consumptive for eating, drinking or bathing until disinfected. Do not admit children to the schoolroom until the sweeping, dusting and ventilating is completed. Do not drink milk—if there is any doubt as to purity until sterilized or pasteurized. Do not drink stagnant water from tanks, pools, sluggish streams or shallow wells. For school, colleges and academies, there should be provided ample play-grounds and truck gardens and every pupil should have an abundant exercise in the open air daily, especially in fair weather; and be given access to the truck-gardens thus building strong constitutions and increasing their powers of resistance against the disease making germ. Finally clean up and keep clean, keeping the person and premeses the sleeping and eating quarters in the best state of sanitation, work, eat and sleep as much in the open air as possible; seeing at all times that the sleeping apartments are well ventilated, a window open night and day, summer and winter, rain or shine. SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONVENTION CLOSES. Chattanooga, Tenn. — The annual Sunday-School and B. Y. P. U. State Convention closed its session here Sunday. The result of the week's proceedings was pronounced successful in every respect, although the delegation was not as large as expected. Especially was East Tennessee conspicuous on account of the absence of delegates, but the West and Middle sections of the state were all the more enthusiastic. From the opening day to the closing scenes, Sunday night it is estimated that 1,500 people the banner day, notwithstanding the tremendous rain that fell all the morning. In the afternoon and at night it is estimate that 1,500 people were present. The B. Y. P. U. elect heart because the tr ed the following officers for the ensuing year: President, L. C. Moore, Memphis, Tenn.; Vice President, J. M. Byrns, Chattanooga; Second Vice President, M. C. M. Moore, Clarksville; Secretary, Miss Sarah Saunders; Treasurer, C. M. Davis, Memphis. The Sunday-School Convention collected the following officers: President, T. J. Townsend, Nashville; First Vice President, Wm. Winfield, Humboldt; Second Vice President, J. H. Bowers, Whiteville; Secretary, Mrs. Hattie McMichael; Treasurer, Mrs. C. L. Lewis, Memphis. West Tennessee, as usual, carried off the lion's share of offices and at the same time captured the next annual convention, which will meet with the St. John Baptist Church, of which Rev. W. J. McMichael is pastor. MORTGAGE BURNING ST. PAUL A M. E. CHURCH. Monday night marked the first mortgage burning in Nashville among A. M. E. churches. This was carried out at St. Paul Church and a very vital program was rendered. The pastor of the church, Rev. W. Sampson Brooks introduced Dr. R. F. Boyd, who was master of ceremonies. Dr. Boyd introduced as the first speaker Dr. E. W. S. Hammond who spoke very impressively. This divine was followed by Mrs. E. W. S. Hammond who read in a splendid manner, "Sister and I." The next speaker introduced was Dr. C. V. Roman, who spoke very interestingly as is his way. These speeches were followed by a beautiful flag drill arranged by Mrs. J. H. Hale. Then followed the scene of mortgage burning which was very impressive. The older female members of the church were arranged in a semicircle around the altar and were supplied with torches, they waited while the officers of every department of the church marched around the church seven times—known as the Jericho march as of old, when the walls fell upon the seventh march. Bishop Evans Tyree closed the program with many very helpful admonitions for the future. FIRST OUTING. The Narragansett Club, which was organized for summer outings, gave their first picnic Friday, June 25, at Greenwood Park. The tallyho, which was beautifully decorated in club colors, pea green and lavender, left the residence of Mr. Felix Harding, 1505 Jackson street, at 8:30 a.m. The uniformity of the crowd was very attractive. The boys were dressed in shirtwais and panamas. The tallyho was topped with parasols of rainbow color. The sound of bells, horns and yelling were heard some distance. After entering the ice park cold lemonade was served; and then after roving through the park a while a table was spread under beautiful shade trees, where all enjoyed a ten-course menu. After dinner a baseball game was played between the boys and girls. The chaperons were Mrs. Georgia Hunter and Mrs. Leroy Robertson. The tallyho left the park at 6:30 p.m. and drove through the streets of the city until 9:30. Those present were Misses Izora Flemmings, Bessie Rhodes, Anne Young, Sadie Drake, Annie Henderson, Jennie Love, Julia Pope, Mary Beasley, Julia and Emma Williams, Georgia Connell, Lottie Balle, Trease and Mattie Robertson, Grace Rhodes, of McMinnville, Tenn., Messrs. Henry Matthews, Arthur Fite, John Love, Andrew Bright, Felix and Adams Harding, Hawkins and Benjamin Darden, Gordon White. The Narraganset Club met at the home of Mrs. Emma Williams Wednesday night, June 23. Much business was transacted. At a late hour a two-course menu was served. The members present were Misses Mary Beasly, Georgia Connell, Emma Williams, Jennie Love, Annie Henderson, Mabel Paschall and Julia Williams, Messrs. Felix Harding, Arthur Fite, Henry Matthews, John Love, John Barnes, Benjamin Darden, Hawkins Darden, Andrew Bright, Fulton Stockell, Thomas Stockell, William Smith.

This June 19th, 1909. BISHOP ELIPPER AT BOYNTON. When the speakers' stand was reached, the marchers, foot, horse and vehicle, disbanded, and the master of ceremonies, the writer, called the crowd to order. After calling attention to the fact that Bishop J. S. Flipper was the first bishop to visit Boynton, he introduced Mayor J. H. Ogle, who extended a hearty welcome in behalf of the city. Rev. Dr. Beamer, of Muskogee, was called upon to introduce the bishop. In response the bishop delivered a powerful address. After the speaking a free, old-fashioned dinner was served. The credit for the great outdoor demonstration is due to Attorney L. J. Merlwether, the man who induced the writer to settle in this town. We are yokefellows in church and state. The bishop made a good impression and won our hearts, and we won his. At night Bishop Flipper lectured to a good house. The writer again presided. After the lecture, the guest of honor and the reception committee repaired to the cozy cottage of Mrs. Ida Robinson, who had prepared a four-course spread, her husband acting toastmaster. A number of toasts were responded to, Attorney Merlwether responding to "Our Guest." The bishop in responding pledged his support in establishing Sisson College in Boynton. Attorney A. L. J. Merlwether visited the Presiding Elder's Council at Tulsa, last month and submitted a proposition which the council accepted and which the bishop most heartily approved, and his visit to our little town and looking over the proposed site, convinces him that Boynton is the place. The Mayor, in his address of welcome, held inducements to bring the college here. The bishop preached an able sermon Sunday morning, and left in the afternoon for Okmulgee. Bishop Flipper did not find the quantity but quality here. He got his best impression in the Sunday-school, where he met scholars, experienced teachers, merchants and professional men. The "Judge" is the superintendent. The good bishop's simplicity and affability captured all of us, and then his outdoor address to white and colored, shows him to be a manly man. He did not indulge in the rot about what the Negro does not want. "He wants everything the white man wants," said he. And again: "I acknowledge inferiority to no man on account of my color. He must be my superior in moral worth—character education and wealth. Its worth, not color, that determines superiority. Being a college bred man, I am willing to measure arms with any college bred man." DR. GRAHAM COMES TO TRINITY CHAPEL. Dr. D. A. Graham, D. D., of Chicago, is pastoring at Trinity Chapel A. M. E.

It numbered 120 teachers, more or less, who manifested unbounded enthusiasm in the work throughout the session, Prof. R. B. Reynolds conducted the work with great success, showing. by actual merit his worthiness of such an honored position. ‘The session was a complete success long to be remem: bered by those who attended. On the 23rd Prof. F. M. Williamson, of Fay- etteville, Tenn., delivered a most elab- orate address to the institute in which he especially emphasized the fact, that a teacher not only has rights and privileges, but duties and responsibili- ties as well. The lady teachers seem to have been much impressed with Prof, F, M. Williamson's speech, Prof. W. F. Reynolds, of Pearl High School, was gladly received into our institute and taught a subject of which we were greatly benefited there- by. Peace and harmony prevailed throughout the session, and every teacher showed a mark of improve. ‘ment over that of last year and prom- ised a continual advancement along the educational road. The County Superintendent was very much delighted with the pro- found interest manifested by the teachers, hoping that they may never stop Uil they culminate that point in education wherein they may be able to criticize and enjoy the finest arts of literary genius. The institut: closed by a rendition of a splendid pro- gram, which further demonstrated the fact, that the colored teachers of Maury County are susceptible of the highest state of civilization known to mankind, igh HILLSBORO NOTES. - Mr. Erwin Chureh, of Nashville, is ‘visiting his mother, Mrs. Chas.

For more than a week Rev. A. N. McEwen, D. D., the newly elected Educational Secretary, has been very sick at his home in Mobile, Alabama. Much uneasiness was felt for him by his two sons, as well as a host of friends in Tennessee. A telegram from Mobile on Tuesday sent by Mrs. Green, of Pensacola, Fla., his daughter, who is at his bedside, reported him resting well and apparently out of danger. The message was sent to Mr. L. Landers, who has kept in communication with Mobile during the entire week. His illness is said to be a general breakdown caused by overwork. Dr. McEwen is quite an important factor in Baptist affairs in Alabama, and was in the city only a short while ago attending the Sunday-School Congress. SALEM A. M. E. CHURCH.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1909 REV. McEWEN ILL. Y. M. C. A. THE HOME OF THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN SPORT. SPORT. Of all the athletic sports indulged in by the American people it must be admitted that baseball is in the lead. This season of the year the small boy, the youth and the old man can be seen taking part in the game in some form or other. There are leagues upon top of leagues from one end of our country to the other. Men make baseball a business. They invest millions of dollars annually in salaries and equipment. Negroes are making attempts at running teams, and are succeeding fairly well, but there is need of better understanding between managers of clubs. A few months ago Mr. Wm. Smith organized a team of young players and everything was running smoothly until he took the boys on a trip through Kentucky and Indiana. As soon as some of the managers saw what the boys could do they made them flattering offers and as a result the Nashville Collegians are shot to pieces. The team promised to make a good showing, but Mr. Smith finds himself in worse fix now than when he started practice in the spring. And it takes a good team to win, and winning is what makes the home folks turn out. A good team in Nashville would be a paying proposition, and the people believe Mr. Smith is trying to get a good team, but they are from Missouri, and will have to be shown. They will support the game though when properly paid. The Louisville Cubs and Nashville Collegians played a series of games last week. The Louisville team boys took all three by good scores. The games were batting feasts in which all the Louisville players took a splendid role. The Nashville pitcher seemed unable to stop the hitting of the visitors, who slammed the ball to all parts of the lot. The feature of the game was the manner in which Watson, of Louisville, played third base. He is without a doubt the best seen in these parts for some time. His hitting was also a factor in the games. Smith and McVay, of the Collegians, also did some good hitting, and the fielding of Kendall and Caruthers also saved many runs. The Collegians leave in a few days for their long southern trip, making Memphis, Birmingham, Montgomery, Macon and New Orleans. We are hoping them success on their trip and may they bring home the bacon. The Standard Giants are having quite a successful trip from all reports, and seem to be winning some games. They are making Missouri, Indiana and Kentucky, but hope to be at home in a few days resting up and then taking to the path again for a long Southern trip. --- JOHNSON BESTED TONY ROSS. The Latter, However, Put Up a Good Fight. Pittsburg, Pa., June 30.—Jack Johnson, heavyweight champion of the world, tonight outboxed Tony Ross, of Newcastle, Pa., in a six-round bout given under the auspices of the National Athletic Club at Duquesne Garden. While the bout was declared a draw on account of State laws prohibiting the rendering of a decision in boxing tournaments, public opinion willingly conceded that Johnson had the better of the go from start to finish. It was a fast fight, both men up THE HISTORY OF THE MUSEUM Recently fitted up, and opened to the public, is just the place you are looking for to regain your health.

Johnson, however, seemed to be out of condition, repeatedly rushing Ross, but seldom landing effectively. The crowd shouted wildly whenever Ross landed a telling blow, but hooted Johnson for his apparently rough work in the clinches. Referee Jimmie Dime said after the fight that Ross did remarkably well in the face of the fact that Johnson had it over him in weight and height. Johnson refused to talk after the mill, while Ross anxiously begged for another opportunity to meet him. COLUMBIA CUBS TO THE FRONT. Columbia has, this year, one of the strongest amateur baseball teams of the South under the leadership of Mr. B. Harlen Green. Columbia, as in previous years, has had the honor of having a strong team, but this year it surpasses all other years. Manager Harlen Green and Captain Walter Green were in the city Wednesday arranging for a series of games. They will play the Standard Furniture Line Team on July 12. 13 and 14. The Standard Furniture Line is a strong team in good form, of East Nashville. It is managed by Messrs. Mercie and Bragg.
