THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. IV. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS OF TENNESSEE And the Grand Court of Calanthe IN SESSION IN THIS CITY—BOTH BODIES CONVENED WEDNESDAY MORNING—MEN MEETING IN ODD FELLOWS HALL AND LADIES IN BOYD HALL—DR. J. P. CRAWFORD READS ANNUAL ADDRESS—ORDER PROVED TO BE IN PROSPEROUS CONDITION—COURT OF CALANTHE MAKING GREAT GAINS—ELECTION OF OFFICERS. The eleventh annual session of the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias convened in Odd Fellows Auditorium Wednesday morning at ten o'clock. The Grand Chancellor, Dr. J. P. Crawford, opened the session according to ritualistic form, prayer being offered by the Grand Prelate. The usual welcome addresses were delivered by prominent citizens, which were responded to by members of the Order. The regular committees were appointed at the morning session, and the report of the Credential Committee showed that a large delegation was present. At the same hour that the Pythian Grand Lodge convened, the Grand Court of Calanthe met in their annual session in the Boyd Building. The Court was opened in due form by Mrs. Abbie W. Saunders, of Memphis. The roll call showed all the Grand Court officers present. Little business, other than perfecting plans for the session, was conducted at the morning session. Wednesday afternoon the delegates to the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias were escorted to the auditorium at Walden University, where the annual banquet was held. The building was beautifully decorated with flowers, and everything presented an appearance of gayety. The master or ceremonies announced that the occasion was one at which it was hoped every visitor and participant would feel at home. The speakers were brief but pointed, and the annual banquet of 1909 will live in the hearts of Pythians of Tennessee as long as any of those present are blessed with the faculty of remembrance. Emphasizing the principles of friendship, charity and benevolence as the tenets of Pythianism, and pleading for the acceptance of worthy and honorable men into the order of Knights of Pythias, Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias of the jurisdiction of Tennessee, rendered his tenth annual report as Grand Chancellor of the Order in this State yesterday. His address covered fully the entire work of the past year and canvassed the remarkable growth of the organization both from a numerical and financial standpoint. Dr. Crawford reported an increase of twenty-three lodges during the year. In referring to the future of the Order he said in part: "No organizations are needed to stimulate a large element of our people to follow in those paths that lead to degradation, but every organization that looks to our elevation ought to be encouraged not only by the courts, but by the public at large. Upon what principle does the community encourage the spread of the Christian religion amongst us? Is it not because charity, love and brotherhood make men better citizens? Nobody fears that religion will be corrupted and its usefulness to other men be destroyed because the Negro is learning to worship God. Neither can the usefulness of the Knights of Pythias be curtailed by the attempt of the Negro to elevate himself, care for his sick, bury his dead and succor the widow and orphan through its channels. Let us, therefore, trust in God and have faith in the growing sense of justice in the American people. Be peaceable, but be firm and steadfast to principle and in the end all will be well with us." The Grand Chancellor recommended a permanent place for the meeting of the Grand Lodge, the erection of a Pythian building for the headquarters of the Order in the State, and that some measures be taken to prevent the circulation of circular and printed matter in an unofficial manner prejudicial to the good of the Order. COURT OF CALANTHE. From a beginning six years ago of only ten members and an indebtedness left upon them by the Supreme Court, the Grand Court of Calanthe, the woman's department affiliated with the Knights of Pythias, have grown into a membership of more than 4,000 with nearly $8,000 in the treasury, and all current expenses paid. This remarkable showing was made by the reports of the Grand Worthy Counsellor, Dr. R. F. Boyd, who has been the executive officer of the concern since its organization. The report of the Secretary of the Endowment Board showed that there had been 1,234 policies issued during the year and that the total receipts of that department were $5,544.37 which, with the balance from last year, made the total money received $9,771.28, with a balance after all expenditures of $6,426.34 in the Endowment Treasury. In the Grand Court proper, there remains a balance of $1,519.29, making the total amount on hand up to June 30, $7,945.59. Dr. Boyd reported the organization of twenty-five new courts during the year and recommended that all the officers of a subordinate lodge who handle money be placed under bond, and that a committee be appointed from the court to confer with a similar one from the Grand Lodge with reference to the erection of the Pythian building. After the report of the Grand Worthy Counsellor and the financial officers, the rules were suspended and the officers elected by acclamation. They are as follows: Dr. R. F. Boyd, Nashville, Grand Worthy Counsellor; Mrs. Abbie W. Saunders, Memphis, Grand Worthy Inspectrix; Mrs. Mary B. Miller, South Pittsburg, Grand Worthy Inspector; Mrs. George L. Burke, Knoxville, Register of Deeds; Mrs. Clemmie White, Nashville, Receiver of Deposits; Miss Virginia Soward, Millington, Orator; Mrs. M. A. Turner, Secretary Endowment Bureau; N. N. Reynolds, Grand Lecturer; C. O. Hunter, Medical Register. A short address was made to the court by Rev. J. W. Tate, of Chattanooga. A banquet and concert was tendered the visiting delegates at the Boyd building Wednesday night. The ladies of the local organizations, as is their custom, excelled the men in their preparation to banquet their visiting sisters. The scene in Boyd Building Hall on Wednesday night showed plainly the spirit of good will that exists among the local courts of Nashville. Every one was made to feel that they were among loving friends on this occasion. A short address was made before the Grand Lodge by Rev. J. W. Tate that was very timely. He paid a high tribute to the work of Dr. J. P. Crawford, the Grand Chancellor, and pleaded for his continuance in office. "We cannot afford to turn down men who have labored and sacrificed for us and for our good," he declared. "We are too prone to give over to our petty jealousies rather than subordinate them to the good of the work we are to serve. Men like Crawford and R. F. Boyd should be given a hearing, for in all things they represent the best and noblest that is in the Negro race. To further Dr. Crawford's candidacy as Keeper of Records and Seals of the Supreme Lodge is the work of the J. P. Crawford Club, composed of some of the most prominent members of the Order in this city and in the state. Dr. Crawford is one of the most popular members of the Order, and his election to the position in the Supreme Lodge is almost assured. "Fraternal Love" was the subject of an interesting address delivered by Grand Lecturer N. N. Reynolds at the Grand Court. That pains, slander, unkindness and many of the ills we suffer may be averted and prevented by fraternal spirit as taught by the lodges and other secret Orders, was the burden of his address. He especially praised the endowment department of the Pythian Lodge and declared that much good was done to individuals who would otherwise be denied ordinary comforts through this depart- (Continued on Page 8.) NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1909. MEMPHIS NEXT GITY TO BE INVADED BY CONVENTIONS. Baptist State Convention Convenes July 21st. PEOPLE OF BLUFF CITY GETTING READY FOR THE INVASION—BAPTISTS STATE CONVENTION WILL BE LARGELY ATTENDED—GREAT EDUCATIONAL RALLY TO BE HELD—ODD FELLOWS PLANNING TO HAVE BUSY SESSION—SECRETARY TURNER LOOKING AFTER EVERY DETAIL—LADIES' DEPARTMENT MEETS AT SAME TIME AND PLACE. At the meeting of the Baptist City Ministers' Conference Monday morning it was decided by a unanimous vote that the Nashville delegation to the Baptist State Convention would leave Nashville Tuesday morning, July 20th at 7 o'clock to go over the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway to Memphis. The delegation will largely be in charge of Rev. E. M. Lawrence, D. D., Superintendent of Missions for the State of Tennessee and will consist of Revs. Wm. Haynes, G. B. Taylor, J. C. Lott, C. H. Clark, T. J. Townsend, W. M. Burnes, G. K Wilson, Wm. Farrell, John Slaughter W. S. Ellington, E. M. Lawrence, Wm Craft, E. W. D. Isaac, Rev. A. Porter Rev, Henry A. Boyd, A. O. Kenney, J. C. Harding, J. C. Fields, Mr. J. W. Martin, Dr. A. M. Townsend, Prof. W. S. Thompson and others. This number will possibly be increased by others coming from Knoxville, Chattanooga and other eastern points, that will, no doubt, be joined at Jackson and go into Memphis with an unusually large delegation. There is a deal of interest already attached to the coming State Convention. While it meets in Memphis, the undisputed metropolis of the State of Tennessee, this alone is not the interesting feature, although Memphis is said to have sixty-five organized Baptist churches within its city limits against the forty-two that Nashville can muster up; the feature of the convention will be, according to information, the educational work of the Baptists in the state and the maintenance of their three schools. Whether Roger Williams, which was the slogan of last year's convention when it met in this city, will keep its lead is not known, as there is situated in Memphis Howe University and with the convention under its wing, yet it is supposed that the honors will be evenly divided so far as interest is concerned. The other feature will be the election of officers. Last year Nashville took practically the entire official list, from president down, with but few exceptions, the other sections of the state, seemingly, were satisfied to have the affairs of the convention directed from this city. Not much change in the official roster of the convention is predicted. The only change reported likely to be made is in the presidency. A rumor has gained credence that Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., pastor of the Mount Olive Baptist Church, is being mentioned for the presidency and his friends are insisting upon his making the race. Dr. Clark, it is known, served the convention as president in 1900 and 1901. There has been an argument to the effect that the falling off of the attendance of the convention noticeable for the past few years is attributable to the lack of interest. But whether this argument has a bearing upon the desire to have Dr. Clark again accept the presidency could not be verified. A Globe reporter attempted to interview Dr. Clark this week, but the doctor was noncommittal. He did state, however, that eight or ten leading Baptists in the state had written him lately, urging that he make the race, and assuring him their support. He said that he was working in the interest of the convention irrespective of any section of the state, and that he was willing to support any able, proficient man who would look after all interests of the convention. There comes news, however, that Dr. Clark is being urged because of his great magnetic powers and his ability to organize. It is thought that he would bring an equal interest to bear on the three large colleges and cause a unanimous and concerted action in behalf of the state work from all the divisions or Tennessee. It is not evident that there will be any great right over the presidency, as the Tennessee Baptists seem to be able to select or elect their leaders without the friction so apparent in other states. The election of officers will, no doubt, take place at Memphis the 21st or 22nd. If Nashville retains the presidency, the secretaryship, superintendent of missions and the treasurer, together with her present membership on the executive board, she will keep the same advanced pace set for the past few years as the center of the Baptist state convention, as well as a national center. The third biennial or twenty-sixth general meeting of the District Grand Lodge No. 6, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of Tennessee will convene in the city of Memphis, August 10th. Mr. T. P. Turner, of Pulaski, who is secretary of the District Grand Lodge, states that special provisions have been made to accommodate all delegates and friends who desire to take advantage of the rates granted by the railroad. He further stated that from the number of credentials filed it was apparent that a large delegation would attend. The ninth general meeting of the District Household of Rush will convene on the same date and place as the District Grand Lodge. The ladies are also anticipating a lively session. The secretary of the women's department is a resident of Memphis, which insures them a pleasant time. The women's department of the Odd Fellows has always been on the alert and each year the grand officers' reports show that much good for humanity has been done. TENNESSEE COLORED FAIR ASSOCIATION. Greenwood Park, September 21-25, 1909, Nashville, Tenn. Contract has just been let to Mr. Randal McGavock to build a stable 400 feet long for the accommodation of the stock at Greenwood Park during the Fair. A new entrance and ticket office will be built at the east entrance of the fair ground. Great interest is being manifested all over the State in the Fair for this fall. The posters and bills will be out in the next ten days. The posters are so beautiful until one will almost think that he is at the Fair just to look at one of them. MISS LILLIAN D. ALLEN ILL. Miss Lillian D. Allen, of 144 Fourteenth avenue, North, has been indisposed for the past week, but is now reported convalescing. Miss Allen has been home only a few days resting up from her year's work as musical instructor at the N. and I. College at Lawrenceville, Va., a position she has filled for two years, giving perfect satisfaction. She has given quite a number of high-class recitals to the public for the school. RUNNING HONEYSUCKLE CLUB. The Running Honeysuckle Pleasure Club carried out their first annual outing to the beautiful Rock City Grove Monday. A very nice lunch was served by the ladies of the club. After a nice time was had and all sisters and brothers had been pleased, an accident happened, the tally-ho broke into, but no one was seriously hurt. THE GLOBE ON SALE.

G. H. CLARK AT Mt. Olive Baptist Church Last Sunday. MORE THAN THREE HUNDRED MEN ASSEMBLE TO HEAR DISTINGUISHED PRELATE—THE SPEAKER GAVE SOUND ADVICE TO THE MEN—PROF. RICHARD HILL SPOKE POINTEDLY ON HOME LIFE—ADMONISHED THE MEN TO BE BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS—HE DECLARED THAT THE DESTINY OF THE PEOPLE IS IN THE HANDS OF THE MEN—Y. M. C. A. WORK INSPIRED. More than three hundred representatives, strong and able-bodied men sat and listened to a splendid sermon preached for their special benefit by Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon. The sermon was under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association of this city and had been looked forward to with much interest. Although it rained from 12 o'clock until 5 in the afternoon the men came and sat at the feet of this able divine as he spoke from 2 Sam. REV. C. H. CLARK, D. D., Who Preacher the Sermon to the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday. 2:14, "And Abner said to Joab, Let the young men now arise and play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise." The theme of Dr. Clark's sermon was the organization in which you play your part in life. There was no need for mincing of words as he was speaking plainly to the men of Nashville. It was an appropriate time for handling the crowd of men present without gloves and he proceeded to do so. He stamped his approval upon right living, gentlemanly bearing and being manly men. He dealt knockout blows to many old batchelors and young men who were attempting to ape after such batchelors. He declared in uncompromising language and terms that a man who had not the confidence in the beautiful, charming, worthy women of the race to take unto himself a wife did not show that he was the man of the hour, the times nor for the occasion. The speaker declared that too many men had ruined the lives of the race's most worthy women because of the failure to enter the matrimonial arena at the proper time. He intimated that the men of his race would never be looked upon as staunch, reliable, worthy leaders who never marry, and that they could not be expected to live exemplary lives that could be copied by the coming generation. The speaker emphatically declared that the actions of a professional man or leader who had never married were not worthy of emulation. For more than an hour he spoke along these lines getting from his text his argument and producing facts to substantiate this argument that were not only timely but which will no doubt prove beneficial. Another feature on the program was a solo by Dr. S. S. Caruthers which was received with hearty applause. Immediately after the sermon and solo, Dr. T. J. Townsend, of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, led in prayer and then Prof. Richard Hill was introduced by Mr. S. F. Williams, the Master of Ceremonies, for a short address. Prof. Hill in a characteristic and entertaining way took charge of his audience. He said: It was on a train in Indiana that a lady had fainted.

NASHVILLE, TENN THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1909. the parlor car into the smoker and exclaimed aloud, "Has any gentleman a bottle of whiskey—a lady has fainted." No sooner had the announcement been made than a half-dozen bottles of whiskey were neld up at the same time. The speaker after a careful observation selected the largest one and in the presence of the entire coach of people uncorked it and took a big swallow, replacing the cork, smacked his mouth and handed it back to the amazement of those present. Smacking his mouth again, he remarked, "I feel better now. It always makes me feel peculiar when a lady faints." Prof. Hill stated that it always made him feel peculiar to follow such an able speaker as Dr. Clark, but since he had sat at his feet and drink from the fount of wisdom he felt better. After that he compared [Portrait of a man in formal attire, facing left, with a mustache.] J. P. PORTER, President Colored Y. M. C. A. the Young Men's Christian Association life and its soul-saving mission with that of the great inspector, Byrnes, of New York City, who when asked how he detected a criminal said that by looking in the eyes of a man he could usually tell and seldom made a mistake. In this strain Prof. Hill made an interesting address. He said by reading the Bible daily, be we saint or sinner, it would be much easier to shun the evir way and live happy and prosperous. He said that the men of the present should remember, each of them, that when they are with other men's sisters it would help them to think of their own; when they were with other men's daughters it would be profitable and sometimes very helpful to think of their own as "Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap." One touching remark of his address was, "Deep down in the heart of every woman there is a longing to be pure, to live honored lives, to be queen over the heart and household of some good man; but their God-given desire to please us, attract our admiration and win our love causes thousands to fall." Yet he said that the keeping of the Garden of Eden was given to Adam and not to Eve. The entire evening was spent by these men in heart talks, listening to the speakers and the program. At the conclusion of Prof. Hill's address a collection was lifted for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A., which under Mr. J. P. Porter, the President, is accomplishing so much for the young men of the city. The collection was lifted by Mr. S. F. Williams and Deacon Martin. The doxology was sung and the benediction was pronounced by Rev. A. Brooks, Pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church. This meeting had the hearty support of quite a number of the city pastors as on the platform were noticed the Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Rev. W. S. Ellington; Pastor of the St. John A. M. E. Church; Rev. A. Brooks; Pastor of the Spruce Street Church, Rev. T. J. Townsend and Pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, while the pastor of the St. Andrew Presbyterian and those of several other churches were noticed in the audience. Rev. Miller, of Salem Va., was one of the visitors present. SOCIAL The young ladies and men of East and North Nashville were highly entertained Monday night, July 5, 1909, at the residence of Mrs. V. Faulkner, by Misses Lena Bush, E. McEwen and M. Wingfield. Those present were Misses Nannie M. Forbes, Annie Franklin, Lena Bush, Mattle Wingfield, Nettle Stoner, Eunice C. McEwen, Anna Snow, Glendora Brice, Lettle M. Bush, Margretta Mayberry, Mamie Walton, Mr. Wm. Sims, Miss Bessie Burns and little Brucie M. Scales, Messrs. Wm. Jacobs, Anthony Giles, Hawkins Darden, James Lloyd, Wm. German, Andrew Bright, Howard W. Salters, Tennyson Dooley, Henry Matthews, Joseph Johnson, Eugene Evans, George Lee, Benjamin Crockett, Samuel Taylor, P. L. Caruthers Eloide White, Dancing and games were the main features of the evening and a two-course menu was served at a late hour and the guests went quietly home. REV. HENDERSON GOES PA) NE SEMINARY. The election of Rev. George W. Henderson D. D., of this city as the head of the Theological Department of Payne Theological Seminary at Selma, Ala., was announced this week. While it was a surprise and comes unexpectedly to Dr. Henderson's host of Nashville friends, it is a distinct honor and quite a recognition to be placed upon such a worthy divine. It is known, however, that Dr. Henderson had gone over to the A. M. E. Church sometime ago having joined St. Paul of this city. The placing of him in this position at the school, which the A. M. E. Church has decided to be recognized as the bone and sinew of their theological activities, is looked upon as in keeping with the laid out policies. It is stated that the last quadrennial conference which met at Norfolk, Va., heartily endorsed the Payne Theological Seminary and planned to do the general theological work of the church through school. This plan was decided upon for several reasons—one of them being the advantageous location of Selma to a large number of its membership. The argument was made that Wilberforce was too far away from the scene, thus such a learned theologian as Dr. Henderson, a man who has spent so many years in this particular educational work, one that has built us successfully and been able to make such a showing in the theological department of Straight University first, and lastly the splendid showing made by him in the theological department of Fisk University, taking it without a student and after four years closing with eight graduates to his credit and twenty-seven enrolled, made him an easy leader for this coveted position. The state of Alabama is said to be making rapid strides in religious educational work. The annual conference of the state several weeks ago raised $10,000.00 in cash, which is to be used in furthering the A. M. E. schools of the state. The majority of this money is said to go to Payne Theological Seminary where Dr. Henderson takes charge at the opening of the schalastic year. On Thursday of this week Rev, Geo, W. Henderson refused the chair of Dean of Theology at Payne Theological Seminary, Selma Ala., but accepted the chair of german and latin at Wilberforce University, the university of the A. M. E. Church. Dr. Henderson, it is reported, will take up his residence in the state of Ohio, beginning his work at the opening of the school term. It is also rumored that Prof. H. T. Kealing and family will take charge of the palatial Henderson THE SIMPLE LIFE. The natural way of living is the only sure means of avoiding the diseases so prevalent during the summer months. Thousands of children and older persons as well, are swept away each year during the hot weather, by diseases that might often be easily prevented. It is not the heat that kills, as many suppose, but conditions in the body brought about by ignorance of the simplest laws of health. For instance, how few people know the evils resulting from the use of an improper diet of wrong combinations of food, and over-eating even of that which is good in winter as well ar in summer. In what is generally known as the BATTLE GREEK IDEA. we have laid down these three great principles of treating diseases: First, Seek out and remove the cause. Second, Restore the body by Nature's own remedies. Third, Teach the sufferer the laws of health by which he may be kept from future illness. THE ROCK CITY SANITARIUM Offers to the colored people, the opportunity to be benefited healthwise by these very methods. Sufferers from acute and chronic diseases, not contagious, can find here the advantages of a quiet home combined with those of a modern well-equipped hospital. Instead of drugs, we use water in the form of baths, sprays, packs, etc. massage, electricity, electric light baths and various other local and general treatments. Pleasant shady lawns, fine location Prices reasonable. Visitors welcome. For particulars, Address THE ROCK CITY SANITARIUM. Cor. Foster and Stewart Streets, 'Phone. Walnut-87. Nashville, Tenn home on Eighteenth avenue, North. Dr. Henderson, it is understood, had the option of selecting or rejecting either of these two comfortable and important berths in the educational department of the A. M. E. Church. It was first thought that he would go to Payne, but the confirmed, authorized statement is that Wilberforce in the chair of latin and german is the selection. Mr. Frank Bailey and Miss Ola Cecil were married by Rev. S. Jackson at St. Andrew's Mance on Tuesday evening, July 13th. The Wedding was a quiet affair and witnessed by a few friends. The marriage of Miss Lucy A. Washington and Mr. James Taylor was quietly solemnized Wednesday evening, July 7th, at 8:30 o'clock at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Florida Washington, two and one-half miles on the White's Creek road. The impressive ceremony was performed by Rev. Wm. Haynes in the presence of a few friends and relatives. The bride and groom will reside with the bride's mother. Mr. Eugene Page and Miss Alexine S. Campbell were quietly married at the residence of the bride's parents, Rev. and Mrs. Alexander Campbell, 118 Stonewall street, Sunday evening at 6 o'clock. Rev. Davis officiating. Only members of the two families being present. The bride and groom are residing at their home, 43 Wharf avenue. The Ladies' Aid Society of the First Baptist Church gave a beautiful and entertaining children's concert, composed of children of the church and many of their little friends, Monday evening at the church. Features of the entertainment were songs, recitations, and a Tom Thumb wedding which was most amusingly and heartily received and applauded.

RESOLUTIONS IN MEMORY OF MISS SPICY WILSON.

There was held last Sunday in Winchester a reunion of the old students of Prof. D. A. Tounsend's school. He began teaching here in 1869 and has taught continuously and is yet teaching in the old Union Hall Building, where he first taught 40 years ago. The old students assembled at 11 a.m. July 4, at the Baptist Church. Mrs. Nannie Finch and Prof. D. A. Townsend rendered the welcome addresses on behalf of the old students, Miss Ella Moss on behalf of the churches and Sunday-schools. Rev. C. E. Miller, of Salem, Va., the originator of the reunion, preached the opening sermon which was a very able discourse. Mrs. S. S. Gray, of Winchester, musical direstress, assisted by Mrs. A. M. Townsend, of Nashville, furnished some choice music. At 8 p. m. Mr. W. T. Petty, of Winchester, delivered the welcome address on behalf of the citizens, and in his usual manner of eloquence captivated the audience. Solos by Mrs. C. E. Miller and Master A. M. Townsend were enjoyable features. Students ranging in years from 6 to 60 are attending, and at roll call the following were represented: Alabama, 2; Indiana, 2; Illinois, 2; Mississippi, 1; Missouri, 1; Texas, 2; Virginia, 2; Ohio, 1. P. I. Miller, of Evansville, Ind., stated the object of the reunion in a pleasing way. The most impressive part of the reunion came on the morning of the 5th when after forming in line at the old school house, the students marched to the home of the beloved teacher and halted. Prof. Townsend, his wife, son and grandson came and took a place of honor in the ranks; then the body moved up town and around the square and thence to the Baptist Church, w ere, through open ranks of students who stood with lifted hats and singing songs of glad tidings, they entered the building where the morning programme was rendered. The paper read by Prof. B. F. Darrell, of Dallas, Tex., on "Education and the Broader Life," was a fine production well rendered and well received. The Mayor, Hon. Jesse M. Littleton, addressed the assembly in the afternoon. Judge Frank Lynch made a most interesting talk. The reunion closed with a literary programme and banquet at night. Some excellent music was rendered by the quartet and choir made up of "old students." The selections given by Mrs. Alice Embry Jones, an elocutionist of note, from St. Louis, were of the best. The closing event was the presentation of a $50.00 gold watch to Prof. Townsend by Rev. T. J. Townsend, of Nashville, who made a most timely and fitting speech assuring him that it was but a small token of the love that the old students had for him.

REMOVED TO MEMPHIS Dr. Elizabeth Broughton-Sykes and sister, Miss Virginia Broughton, left the city Monday morning for Memphis. At Humboldt they were joined by their mother, Mrs. V. W. Broughton, who had preceded them. The family formerly claimed Memphis as their home, but in pursuance of the education of the children came to Nashville several years ago. Miss Virginia graduated from Fisk University two years ago and Dr. Sykes, who is an alumna of Roger Williams University, finished a medical course at Meharry with the class of 1909. She will pursue the practice of her profession in Memphis, where they have purchased a beautiful cottage. Their father, Mr. J. A. O. Broughton, and broth- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1909. er, J. A. O., Jr., who are still in the city attending the sessions of the Pythian Grand Lodge will follow them at an early date.

John Chenault, catcher on the Pluto colored baseball team at French Lick, Ind., was struck just over the heart by a pitched ball and died almost instantly during a game which was being played at French Lick Ball Park. The accident occurred in the eighth inning. Chenault was at the bat for the Pluto team and Brandon was in the box for the Evansville E. O. K's, who were here playing a series of three games with the Pluto team. Toward the end of the inning Brandon threw a fast inshoot and Chenault was unable to get out of the way. The ball struck him just above the heart, and umpire Jackson gave Chenault his base. He started down the base line and ran about half-way and dropped. There was a physician among the spectators and he was immediately called. He was powerless to render aid. Chenault came from Chicago. ANNUAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE. As August approaches interest is naturally centered in the annual meeting of the National Negro Business League. There are two local leagues in this city that will affiliate with the national body in its ninth annual convention, which is to be held in Louisville on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 18, 19 and 20. This national gathering from all indications promises to be one of the most interesting and best attended conventions that has been held since the organization of the league in the city of Boston nine years ago because of the fact that it is meeting in "Old Kentucky." From the extensive preparations being made by the local entertainment committee at Louisville it is calculated that all who come will be royally entertained. They are expecting over 2,000 to attend. It is said that the program of the organization this year will cleave to business principles, that is to say, business men and business interests are to be given wide sway. It can be stated that there is connected with the organization a wonderful array of strong and representative men of the race who have achieved splendid success along business lines. Nashville will, no doubt, send a delegation that will be commensurate and in keeping with the gigantic Negro business enterprises that represent the thrift and industry of the Volunteer State at its capital. And, although they expect to invade the "Blue Grass State," Tennessee will have no back seat when it comes to showing up in what she has accomplished. It is understood that this city is also represented on the program and will doubtless have an opportunity to show the new business concerns that have been started since the last annual league, namely: A half-dozen new commercial establishments moving along at a splendid rate,—two new banks in the state with signs of more progress. Special inducements are being offered in the way of railroad rates which is calculated to increase the attendance. Aside from the program proper an old-fashioned Kentucky barbecue has been arranged and the annual banquet will be held in one of the largest halls of that city. The Louisville City Council, it is learned, has made a special appropriation towards defraying PENTECOSTAL CHURCHES. Holiness, 605 Twelfth Avenue, N.—Rev. James B. Crosby, pastor.

TRUE IN PART. In the Nashville American of July 9 a communication was published over the signature of Mr. William Jerome, a citizen of this city, in which the writer states some very timely facts, but in other instances he makes assertions on which we do not fully agree. The article referred to ‘was prompted it appears from the general discussion of the appointment of census enumerators to take the next census in the South. It was headed “Justi¢e for the Negro,” and reads as follows I read very carefully the editorial in yesterday morning's American which begins, “The race question is ever present in the South,” and I thought you might have added, “and it will always be a burning question so long as cheap newspapers and poll- tical demagogues continue to agitate it” Your editorial pertains in the main to Negro census enumerators, South- ern statesmen and newspapers speak of these “jobs” as though they were positions of great social distinction. And then you forget that there are many Negro homes into which enum- erators must go. Now why not be consistent and allow the colored peo- ple to insist on having Negro enumera- tors wait on them? The whole ques- tion seems to me to be one of petty Politics. If it is office we are after let us get it in a more dignified and hon- orable way than by making sentiment which is inimical to the best interests of the Negro, You say in your editorial, and you frequently say it that “there is no better friend to the Negro than the Southerner.” I take it that the senti. ment of the South is either moulded or reflected by its newspapers and its best citizens. These two factors in the South have certajnly put them Selves on record as being opposed te the Negro in any capacity except as a “hewer of wood and a drawer of water.” Mr. Hoke Smith says that he shhould havea little learning, and The American endorses his position in to to. Have you not learned that a “little learning is a dangerous thing?” Is such a man a friend to the Negro’ No person is a friend to the Negro who would deny him the privilege of aspiring to and attaining the object of his ambition, whether it be along the lines of higher education or otherwise I do not think it extravagant to say that 90 per cent of the Southern people are friendly to Negroes only because it is profitable to them. The Negre must look elsewhere for sincere friends. Would it not be better if this question were not agitated longer?—William Jerome. ‘The Globe heartily agrees with Mr Jerome in his contention that { ‘would be nothing but fair to appoin THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 16, 1909. Negroes to take the Negro Census, but when he says that ninety per cent of the Southern people are friendly to Negroes because it is profitable to them,” and that “The Negro must look elsewhere for sin- cere friends,” he is in error. The writer cannot possibly be a South- erner, or he would understand condi- tions better. The white people in the South are sincere friends to the Ne- groes, not solely because they need their labor, but because a friendly tie exists that those from other sec- tions cannot understand. POLITICS. The Negoes of this country are oft- en advised to stay out of politics, but those who are preaching such doctrine are more or less found participating in the conducting of the affairs of the people in some way. The Globe does not believe that Negroes nor people of any other nationality should be- come interested in politics to the ex- tent that they will lose sight of every- thing else, but it is a fact that men who make the best citizens are those who can find time to study the needs of the community and will use their ballots to put in office those aspirants whom they believe to be the best qualified to serve the people and will give honest service. It can be seen from daily utterances that the American people are becom- ing more and more independent vot- ers, and are putting in places of pub- lic trust the men they heve confidence in. Every voter in Nashville, if present indications maintain, will be called upon in the approaching municipal election to decide who shall conduct the affairs of this city during the next term of the city government. Some of the present incumbents will likely desire to succeed themselves; and there will be others who have held office before, who are known to the voters of the city, and there will also be new men in the race, well known as successful business men, but who have never held office in the city government. The voters will be asked to decide between these three types of aspirants. They may all be good men, but the question to be de- cided will be which is the best? Negro Pythians have held sway here since Wednesday and their re- ports show that a good year’s work has been done, ages ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.

Carney, the tailor, and Lewis Carney, team- ster, underwent a very serious opera- tion last week at a tocal infirmary. Miss Carney for several years has been instructor of music in a col- lege at Jefferson City, Mo., and only recently returned home, though sick, to spend her vacation, It developed that her illness was of such a nature as to warrant an operation, and as she had suffered greatly, it was per- formed. COMMUNICATION Taft and Roosevelt. To the Nashville Glove. What of Taft? Nothing; so far as the colored man is concerned. His so- called “Southern Policy” is rank, to say the least of it. It is worse than a twice-told tale of a poor story-teller. It has no merit in it whatsoever. This occupant of the White House, put there by a shrewd and masterful poll- tician, is going to turn out to be the weakest administrator of national af- fairs that ever occupied the presiden- ‘tial chair. Although heralded with much eclat, beating of timbrels and tomtoms, so to speak, as the best pre pared man who ever aspired to the grave.duties and responsibilities en- ‘cumbent upon the nation’s chief. His training, it was said, had been most ‘thorough, and it was prophesied, by his friends, that his administration ‘would be eminently sane, practical and businesslike in its widespread and wholesome influence in bettering con- ditions for all the people in every avenue and walk of life, Will the prophecy be fulfilled? Under President ‘Taft—never! That is, it will never ou true with regard to colored American citizens whom his oath of office obligates him to mete out even- handed justice to and as impartially as to every other class of American citizenship. Will he abide by the mandates of the Constitution, or will he sidetrack them by mental evasions or otherwise when they conflict with his Southern policy program? From what can be gathered from the South- ern press, Mr. Taft is “dead in line” with the wishes of that section re- specting the colored citizens and a further curtailment of their already unreasonably limited and circum- scribed rights and immunities, all of which is in contradistinction to the basic Jaw of the land. Itcan truthfully be said that there are thousands upon thoilsands of col- ored citizens who are not deceived in Mr. Taft nor will they be deceived by anything he may do to their detri- ment. He is an entity of circum- stance or of Dame Fortune who sometimes plays strange freaks by the bestowal of unmerited prizes upon some who chance to meet her fancy in one of her freakish moods. Now it is meet to say in this connection that, although Mr. Taft was elected as President, if he does not possess that depth and breadth of comprehen- sive patriotism and justice that will allow him to act for the best interest of all the people in every part of the country, then he is lacking both in ‘the moral courage and eminent qual- ities that should be a part of the stock and store of the man who fills the august and exhalted position of President of the United States. Mr. Roosevelt, one of the shrewdest and most masterful manipulators of men, made possible the nomination and election of Mr. Taft. No one bet- ter knew Mr. Taft’s strong and weak points than did Roosevelt. Is it not conjectural and more than barely pos- sible that back of all his strenuous and determined effort to foist upon the country a Taft administration, there was the well-laid plan to em- phasizes and bring out into bolder re- lief the achievements of his own ad- ministration by following it with that of a makeshift one by a weak succes- sor? Mr. Roosevelt seated the man he had raised from the ranks, and turning the reins of Government over to him, immediately quitted the country. He now sojourns in far- away Africa, going in and out of its jungles with rifle and gun a mere nimrod. He is, for the time being, divorced from American politics, and on that score, it is probable, would not feel competent to give Mr, Taft advice should he so desire it. There may be in Mr. Roosevelt's African trip something of more far-reaching signi- ficance than bagging the denizens of the jungles. And, too, he is compara- tively a young man in possession of a wonderful amount of mental and physical stamina, ambitious, with still a future, and thereby may hang a tale that is yet to be told. He may be making it imperative for the Re- publican party to have to look to him for leadership again. It may be he knew that Mr. Taft's “Southern Poli- cy” might be his undoing, and in- stead of having to wait until 1916, as his son-in-law, Longworth, inti- mated, he, perchance, might be needed to lead the old guard, the G. O. P., in 1912. One thing is sure, mark the pre- diction, if the country has four years of Taftism, and he is again nominated, and if the Democrats happen (said advisedly) to nominate a candidate as strong as Mr. Cleveland, then Mr Taft with his insipid administration thoroughly inoculated with his “South ern policy” virus will lead the G. O P. to its Waterloo. Mr. Taft’s hand- a snap of the finger for anything Mr. Taft would do other than endorsing his “Southern Policy.” The situation in the Republican camp, boiled down to its last analysis, seems to be that Mr. Roosevelt duped the Republican party with Mr. Taft that he himself might succeed to the sceptre and the throne. » JADECEE. ee gs Correction, Dear Mr. Editor, please give space for a little correction of a statement made in your write-up of the doings of the churches in the city on Sab- bath of July 4th. You made it appear as if St. John took a different course from the old standing custom of near- ly a half century; and that the morn- ing service was dispensed with that the pastor might make a prohibition speech. Please allow me to correct the mistake Ididnot makea prohibition speech. After baptizing 18 persons in the Cumberland river between six and seven o'clock, we returned to the church at eleven o’clock and general class was the order of the service as is the usual custom in this church on first Sundays. On opening the ser- vices I referred to the closing of the saloons of the city as a great victory in favor of Christianity and spoke a few words to make it plain to the congregation how inconsistent it was to pray to God to aid in the removal of these great evils and when the prayer is answered, the praying ones go around complaining about the in- justice of the means that brought it to pass. I said the church had all to shout for and nothing to sigh for. St. John had her General Class as usual on the first Sunday which was the 4th of July, and was a high day in Zion. We baptized 21 persons that day and had four to join the church. We had our usual Sacrement service Sunday evening at 8:30. Yours for Christ and His church, A. BROOKS, Pastor St. John.

During the summer months Nashville is the mecca for educators, not that they all belong here, but come some- times for inspiration, sometimes for recreation and sometimes for consul- tation. Generally these distinguished personages at some stage of their lives have been students or connected with the educational institutions of the city. For more than a week Prof. W. W. Dogan, A. M., President of Wi- ley University, a big Methodist school located at Marshall, Texas, has been sojourning in the city. Prof. Dogan has been the guest or his brother-in- law, Dr, J, A. McMillan, and while here successfully evaded an interview from a Globe reporter. The record that Prof. Dogan has made in buidling up the school in Texas is no secret as the school has grown tremendously under his charge. It is learned that Prof. Dogan came to Nashville from Cin- cinnati, Ohio, where he went to meet the executive committee of the Freed- man’s Aid Society, of which Dr. M. C. B. Mason is one of the secretaries. It is presumed that his visit to Cin- cinnati was in connection witih the ed- ucational work at Wiley University, which institution the Society has rec- ognized on more than one occasion on account of the standing andthe achiements of its president. Pro‘ Dogan at one time lived in this city being connected with the old Central Tennessee College long before it be- came Walden University, hence his stay was made all the more pleasant. He is one of the students that remem- bers Dr, Braden and his work at the school, TIME AND PLACE TO GET A HOME. Time is Now! The place is Tus- kegee, Macon County, Ala.! Every man who is at the head of a family or plans to have a family should buy a home, either a lot in a village or a farm. Colored people can find no better place in which to per manently settle than in Macon Coun- ty, Ala. in which the Tuskegee Insti- tute is located. In the first place, the white people in Macon County are among the finest and fairest in the world. No racial friction exists, justice is meted out to black and white alike. In the second place, there are ten thousand acres of farming land in Macon County, which can be bought for cash or on easy terms. Third, if persons do not wish to buy land, but wish to move into the county and rent, and work by the day, they can easily arrange to do this, Fourth, aside from the land seat- tered in other sections of Macon County, there are fourteen hundred acres of land in small tracts for sale within sight of the Normal School. _ Fifth, the public schools for colored people in Macon County are the best, in our opinion, in the South. Sixth, aside from the Tuskegee Nor- mal Industrial Institute, the town schools, as well as the country schools throughout the country, are in session from eight to nine months every year. These schools are taught in first-class buildings, nicely ceiled or plastered, and whitewashed or painted on the outside, and nothing put the best teachers are employed. Seventh, the churches in Macon County are among the best in the South, and the ministers are improv- ing every year. If you wish to buy a lot, a farm, or locate in this county on any terms for any purpose, please ca'l and see or correspond with Clinton J, Calloway, Real Estate Agent, Tuskegee Insti- tute, Ala. + MARRIAGES.

Among other things, he said: "Our sick members have been looked after with the best of care. Our deceased have been properly buried. Widows have been able to clear up all their incumbrances by our endowment department, and the proper fraternal relations can certainly do more than we can as individuals." He held up the possibilities in co-operative business concerns and in other walks of life, if in all these things the members could be depended upon for the closest fraternal union.

Thursday afternoon the white K. of P.'s by a petition, signed by John W. Aust, McNeily, McGreggor and others, it is reported, secured an injunction against the colored Pythians who were holding their Grand Lodge sessions in this city. Some months ago the press here gave out information as coming from the white Pythians, who were in session here, that steps would be taken by them to enjoin the colored Order from infringing upon what was termed the rights of the white Order. The intention of these injunction proceedings, it is said, is to prevent the colored Pythians from using similar regalia or designating themselves as Knights of Pythias or doing any other thing as a secret organization under that name. Full particulars of the matter could not be reported in this paper which was ready for going to press.

JEFF WILL FIGHT JOHNSON. Champion Says He Will Soon be Ready for the Bout. Toronto, Ont., July 14.—When informed of the statement of Jack Johnson, made in Chicago, that he would post a forfeit of $10,000 for a fight with Jeffries, Jeffries, who is in Toronto, said he had no comment to make except that he would be ready to fight the Negro at the appointed time. Sam Berger, who is Jeff's manager, as well as his sparring partner, said that Johnson would probably not be on hand when they reached Chicago. Jeffries is very much annoyed at the statement that he does not intend to fight Johnson. I'll fight him," he said, "and it won't be any Tommy Burns that he'll find in the ring. Burns a champion! Well, he was a good, fast little boxer, but no match for a big man. He was only a middleweight, and I think I know several in that class who would beat Tommy. Burns only had one hand. He could not punch with his right if you paid him for it. To be a fighter, you must have two hands. "Who is the champion? Well, I can't be blamed for claiming the title. I won the championship from all comers, and my four years' retirement was due to the fact that there was nobody to fight. "That was a fake story that I gave the title to Marvin Hart when I retired from the ring. It's absurd on the face of it. How could I pick my successor? By what right would I be the judge of who was the next best fighter? I could not give the title even if I wanted to, and what's more, I did not. The story was spread broadcast at the time under flaring headliness, and my denial was printed in small type in obscure corners." FIGHT IS DECLARED OFF. Langford Would Not Take Short End of Purse. New York, July 12.—The match between Sam Langford and Stanley Ketchel which was to take place in Ely, Nev., has been declared off by Joe Woodman, manager of the Negro puglist. Woodman declared that Ketchel is not entitled to demand $20,000 out of a purse of $25,000 and that Langford won't fight for a few cents. Woodman says that his man is will- BAREFOOT SANDALS.

Toronto, Ont., July 12.—James J. Jeffries to-night denied the statement attributed to him that he would not fight Johnson, and that he intended to fight, and upon his arrival in New York next week would post a forfeit. ANNOUNCEMENT. Rev. W. S. Ellington will deliver a special lecture to the Young Men's Christian Association Sunday, July 18th, at the First Baptist Church at 3:30 o'clock. All men are invited to be present. FALSE ALARM When asked about the trouble which was said to have taken place at the meeting, Sheriff Borum stated that Mayfield came running into the office of the county jail greatly excited, and asked the officers to hurry down to the hall, as some one was going to be killed. He said that when he arrived at the hall with Deputy Warren, he COAL If needing coal! you want the best, Be sure you give our goods a test; And furthermore, we want to state, Our ton, is full 2000 weight.
