THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. IV. EXHIBITION WILL BE STATE FAIR. Negroes of Tennessee Plan For Great Time. EVERY DETAIL WILL SOON BE COMPLETED—BEAUTIFUL GREENWOOD PARK MADE TO EXCEL HERSELF—RACING COURSE ONE OF BEST IN SOUTH —BOOTHS ARE TAKEN RAPIDLY BY EXHIBITORS—FINE CATTLE AND POULTRY TO BE SEEN—MANY SPECIAL FEATURES TO ENTERTAIN GUESTS. One of the greatest epochs in the history of the colored people of Tennessee is about to be chronicle in the opening of the second Annual Fair in Greenwood Park, September 21 to 25 inclusive. It is the purpose of the Association to make this the grandest Fair ever given by the colored people any where and to place before the public the industrial, mechanical and mental efforts of the Negro race. To place the rich farms, truck-gardens, cotton and tobacco plantations, poultry yards, stock and cattle farms on a miniature scale within the gates of Greenwood Park, and to permit the public to see what the Negro is doing on the farm, in the work-shop and along all lines of profession. Extensive preparations are being made at Greenwood for the installation of the exhibits. Some of the most substantial stables ever put up at a Fair have just been completed for the accommodation of sixty heads of horses and pens which will shelter fifty heads of hogs and sheep. A quarter track is under way and will be completed this week. This track will be one of the best in the country for amateur racing and is being graded just in front of the Amphitheatre and will have the base-ball diamond in the center of it. A ticket office and gate have been built at the East entrance of the Park on Spence Lane. Spring Dale, the most beautiful spot of the Park, boasts a new attraction and one which will delight not only the hearts of the children, but those of the grown up ones as well and will afford an opportunity for animal study by those who love nature; this attraction is the Zoo. Eight cages for animals have been put in. Cage No. 1 contains two wolves; cage No. 2 contains a pair of Jack Rabbits, 1 pair of White Rabbits, 1 pair of pigeons and 3 pairs of white rats; cage No. 3 contains a mother O'possum and 5 little ones; cage No. 4 contains a nice fat coon; and in cage No. 5 may be seen the friend of the children—the monkey. "Jim Key," the educated horse, will be one of the attractions of the Fair, and give daily exhibitions. A building for the women and children will be completed this week and the decorations and exhibits placed in next week. Drs. E. B. Jefferson and C. V. Roman will have one of the most beautiful exhibits of the Fair and are planning to have daily demonstrations of their professions. Mrs. P. R. Burrus, the president of the Women's Department, says their department will be the most beautiful part of the entire Fair and they are leaving nothing undone to make this a possibility. The most prominent business houses of the colored people will put in exhibits and some are taking as many as three booths for their exhibits. The booths will be arranged under the Amphitheatre with the branch of the One Cent Savings Bank in the center. This bank will do a regular banking business, on a miniature scale during the week of the Fair and not only demonstrate the banking business, but accommodate those who may need money while visiting the Fair. The stockholders of the Fair are among Nashville's most progressive colored people both in the professions and in business; are men and women who have made good and have the race's interest at heart.

The Board of Directors of the Payne Theological Seminary located at Selma, Ala., has recently elected H. R. Archer, M. D., of Normal, Ala., their president. This school is one which has a great future and the election of Prof. Archer, who has had some years of experience in the management of big schools, and who has proven to be capable in every way is regarded as a good move on the part of the school folks and will, it is calculated put Payne on a much better footing as an educational institution. Prof. Archer succeeds Rev. Dr. Henderson, who had made a fine record as a president and manager. Prof. Archer's friends in Nashville will rejoice to know of his success as he is a graduate of Meharry Medical College and has a host of friends in the Volunteer State. Rev. Jas. A. Meyers, of Murfreesboro, Tenn., came down Monday to spend one day. MISLEADING Sent Out From Kansas City. NO ONE ATTEMPTED TO STRIKE A WOMAN—MARSHALS WOULD NOT ALLOW LAUNDRYMAN TO BREAK LINE—NO SEMBLANCE OF RIOT—PARADE A GRAND SPECTACLE—THOUSANDS OF GALLANT KNIGHTS MARCH THROUGH STREETS OF WESTERN CITY—SUPREME OFFICERS ELECTED. Kansas City, Mo. Aug. 29.—More than 50,000 brave and gallant Pythian hearts are beating and feeling a sort of patriotic pride in the United States to-day, on account of the gallant number of men who represent that grand Order, which is in session here. They have delegates from North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. The sessions have been harmonious and uplifting. Brainy and cultured men are before the Supreme Lodge as an evidence of the race's rapid growth in every way. The central figure is Supreme Chancellor Green, of New Orleans, La., who will, no doubt, be re-elected to the same high office and there are others who are by no means lesser lights. The Uniform Rank of the Order, which was on parade yesterday, when all of the delegates marched through the principal streets of the city, was lustily applauded and hailed by the big-hearted people in the West. It is estimated that more than thirty companies from various parts of the United States are here in camps, and took part in the parade yesterday. An attempt was made yesterday by some irresponsible reporter to stir up race hatred by reporting that the spectators and friends had struck a white woman with a whip, who attempted to drive through the parade; this is denied by eyewitnesses to what is supposed to be the incident referred to, and follows: A man in a laundry wagon declared he would drive through the procession, but when assured by the mounted escorts and one of the marshals that it would not be well to attempt it, he soon became engaged in watching the imposing pageant lie the other spectators, and in spite of this the following dispatch was given out by the Associated Press, which could not be verified even though they should try: "By Associated Press. "Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 28.—Swinging their drawn swords above the Leads of the belligerents and declaring that unless the trouble ceased they would use them, a company of Negro Knights of Pythias prevented what for a time promised to be a serious race riot, during a parade of the Supreme Lodge of the Negro Knights of Pythias here yesterday. "The trouble began when W. S. Jarboe, a laundryman, accompanied by his wife, drove through the parade of 5,000 Negro Knights at Twenty-first and Central streets. Several Negroes not in the line of march seized the bridle of the horse. "You can't pass here,' they shouted. "Mrs. Jarboe seized a whip and struck at the men. Instantly a hundred excited Negroes crowded about the wagon. One wrested the whip from the woman, stiking her a number of times inflicting painful bruises. Many white men rushed to the aid of the laundryman. A riot call was sent to police headquarters, but before the police arrived, the armed Knights had restored order." But even this did not dampen the great reception these me received from the good people of Kansas City. The following Supreme Officers were elected: Supreme Chancellor, S. W. Green; Supreme Vice- Chancellor, Jno. W. Strauther; P. S. C., E. A. Williams; S. P., Rev. A. H. Newton; S. L., L. M. Mitchell; S. M. of E., Jno. H. Young; Supreme K. of R. and S., C. K. Robinson; S. M. at A., D. S. Miller; S. I. G., Geo. A. Waty; S. O. G., Dennis Taylor; S. M. D; Dr. Jos. H. Ward; No. 1 Uniform Rank, Major General, R. R. Jackson; No. 1 Order of Calanthe, Supreme Attorney, E. A. T. Watkins. NEAR-POSSUM. This is a tried and tested Dixie recipe for "near-possum." Into a pound slice of pork steak place a stuffing made as follows: Boil and peel two good-sized sweet potatoes, press through a coander, season with two tablespoonfuls of brown sugar, the same quantity of dark molasses, and mix in one egg. The steak can be held around the stuffing with threads. Rub salt and pepper over the completed "possum," and place in a baking-pan with one pint of water. Bake for one hour and fifteen minutes, basting frequently. Remove the threads, and serve on a platter garnished with small baked apples.—Fannie Merritt Farmer in September Woman's Home Compan- Buchanan—Councill. Prof. Walter S. Buchanan, President of the A. and M. College, Normal, Ala., weds Miss Ida Christine Councill, daughter of the late President W. H. Councill, at Normal, Ala., Tuesday, August 24, at 8:30 p. m. Promptly at the appointed hour many admiring friends gathered at the Councill residence to witness the nuptials of these two prominent and worthy young people. The room was tastefully decorated with choice and beautiful flowers. Rev. C. O. Boothe, D. D., Chaplain and Professor of Pedagagy at the A. and M. College, officiated. Miss Winona Mason, of Cincinnati, Ohio, was maid of honor. Dr. William Watkins, of Montgomery, Ala., was best man. Miss Lula D. Hopkins, instructor or music at the Corona Institute, Corona, Ala., played the wedding march. To the solemn and beautiful strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march the groom and the best man approached the altar together. Both were neatly attired in full dress. The maid of honor, beautifully gowned in lace over net, trimmed with medallions, entered bearing a bouquet of pink roses and ferns. Leaning on the arm of her mother, Mrs. Maria H. Councill, who was dressed in mourning silk, the bride moved with stately tread toward the center of the wedding group. The bridal gown of white duchess satin was becoming and beautiful. A wreath of orange blossoms crowned the head, while a veil of white silk tulle hung in folds to the end of the train. The ceremony was simple, pointed, impressive and beautiful, and was especially prepared for the occasion. Many presents, both beautiful and valuable were received. The occasion was a joy and a delight to all present and will remain as one of memory's most delightful social experiences. Because of business pressure the extended bridal tour which had been planned was postponed until a later date. NATIONAL PRIMITIVE BAPTIST CONVENTION The National Primitive Baptist Convention convened at Huntsville, Ala. August 18th to 24th. A large delegation attended from St. Ell Baptist Church.

MARY KING, LIBBIE KING, MINNIE DAILEY, BIRDIE KING. HOW MANY NEGROES? The politicians are still on the anxious seat about who will count the population in the United States next year. The Nashville and the Tennessee people are asking themselves, will the loyal Negroes who stood by the Taft band wagon be given places? A prominent republican was asked by a Globe reporter whether or not there would be any Negro enumerators, and he replied. "I do not know. It is hard to say what Taft is going to do, he is almost as hard a problem as his predecessor, although on a different scale, for he is doing what he said he would not do and is not doing what he pledged his party to do. There will be lots of jobs to be given out if only for a short while." One of the morning papers last week contained the following showing that more men will be at work: "Special Dispatch to The American. Washington, Aug. 28.—The Census Office was engaged to-day in apportioning the number of enumerators for each state, which has been a subject of anxious inquiry on the part of the supervisors. So far as ascertained, Tennessee will have, according to the present indications, 1,600 enumerators; how many in each of the districts is yet to be determined. In 1900 the number of enumerators for the State was 1,511. Alcome had 1,223 enumerators in Alabama had 1,232 enumerators in 1900, and for 1910 will have 1,500. An average of twenty days constituted the time of the enumeration work in 1900, and they are expected to finish their tasks in about the THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1909. same time in taking the new census, but the working hours will be reduced from ten to eight hours. The enumeration in cities of over 5,000 inhabitants is expected to be completed within two weeks, while less populous districts will be allowed thirty days." ALL delegates or visitors, who contemplate attending the National Baptist Convention, which meets in Columbus, Ohio, September 15-20th, are requested to send their name and address to Rev. W. L. Burr, D. D., 470 E. Naghten street, Columbus, Ohio. It is absolutely necessary that these instructions be carried out so that the delegates will not have to stand around after they reach Columbus or look for a place to stop. If the assignments are made before the delegates reach Columbus they can leave the station and go to their stopping places. Rev. Wm. Z. Thomas, whose address is 1235 N. Grant avenue, Columbus, Ohio, states that he is endeavoring to have all arrangements perfected for a successful Convention. Thus he desires that these instructions be carried out. ANOTHER BANK INCREASE. One of the greatest signs of prosperity in the Southern states is the increase in the capital stock of many of the Negro banks throughout the country. Several banks in Mississippi have increased their capital stock. One of the oldest banks in the country, located in Birmingham, recently increased its capital, and now the announcement is made that the People's Investment & Banking Company, located at Birmingham, of which W. L. Lauderdale is president, has increased the capital stock to $50,000. "A resolution was passed to this effect at a recent meeting of the directors," said Mr. Lauderdale in a letter to the bank directory department of the Nashville Globe. It is presumed that this was also done to meet the demand of an increased capital to transact the large volume of business said to be passing through that institution. Although only a couple of years old, they had on deposit for the third year $350,000. Mr. Lauderdale refers to the fact that they have paid from 7 1-2 to 15 per cent dividend to each stockholder, a splendid sign of prosperity. ECHOES OF THE NATIONAL NE GRO BUSINESS LEAGUE. By R. W. Thompson. Dr. R. H. Boyd, manager of the National Baptist Publishing House at Nashville, Tenn., "astonished the natives" by the immensity of the operation carried on by his printing plant. He told of the half-block of buildings owned and occupied by his publishing house, of the books, newspapers, pamphlets, engravings and stereotype plates gotten out by the 100 to 150 Negroes employed there —printing everything conceivable, says Dr. Boyd, from a business card to an encyclopedia. The plant of this company, developed through the genius and foresight of Dr. Boyd, is valued at $350,000. Dr. Boyd handled big figures so familiarly that people had to run their eyes and try to realize the fact that it was a Negro who was describing this wonderful business that he had built up by his own powers of mind and industry of hands. D. A. Hart is Tennessee's member of the executive committee of the National Negro Press Association. He's all right. Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday-School Union, looked in upon the convention, en route from Washington. He is now in excellent health. Nashville asked for the next meeting of the League. The delegates have not forgotten 1903 and are overwilling to come back to Tennessee's hospitable capital. Louisville brought in 34 life members—the largest number yet secured in a given year. Mr. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., chairman of the executive committee, and right-hand man to Dr. Washington, was, as usual, the Chesterfield of the convention. He knows how to do the right thing at the right time, never loses his mental equilibrium under any circumstances, and is always ready with a helpful suggestion when a tangle seems imminent. As a banker and as a lawyer, Mr. Napier stands in the first rank in his state and is a believer in the future of the South—contends that it is the section in which the working and ambitious Negro really finds his best opportunity for uplifting service. It is an open secret that when the national administration gets around to the distribution of the federal plums, Mr. Napier is booked for the biggest at President Taft's disposal. No one thing will so commend Mr. Taft to the good graces of the colored people of the country as the recognition of Mr. Napier in a fashion commensurate with his character, ability and faithful party service. The movement for an exposition in 1913, demonstrative of the progress of the Negro during his half-century of freedom, was warmly supported by Prof. E. L. Blackshear, of Prairie View College, Waco, Texas. and Dr. R. E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, New Orleans, La. It will be a "go." The United States Express Company paid the League no small compliment in sending from its main office at Chicago a special representative in the person of Mr. Noah D. Thompson, an exceptionally bright and suave young man, who has had large experience in business affairs. Mr. Thompson brought to the convention the following message directed to Dr. Booker T. Washington, and signed by Mr. T. E. McDonnell, the general superintendent of the United States Express Company. The message was: "Our attention has been called to the good work you are doing for the industrious members of your race throughout the country. We congratulate you and wish you continued success. As a compliment to your organization and as a reward of merit to one of your enterprising members who has been in our confidential employ for nearly twenty years in the city of Chicago, we are today delegating him (Mr. Noah D. Thompson, to look after the interest of our company among your members) and send him to you with our greetings." Mr. Thompson amply demonstrated that he was equal to the occasion and was throughout the proceedings very close to Dr. Washington and rendered him signal aid in a number of important assignments. NOTICE! KNIGHTS OF FRIENDS SHIP OF THE WORLD. Nashville' e. Teenn., Sept. 3, 1909.—To all whom it may concern—Greeting: At the last National Encampment of the K. of Friendship of the world he'd in the Old State Capitol at St. Paul, Minn., July 25th, 30th, 1909, much interest in Knighthood was manifested and much important business was transacted. Thirty-three camps throughout the jurisdiction sent eighty-four active, valiant knights to represent them in this thirteenth triennial Grand Encampment, thirteen national grand officers and six delegates-at-large, a total of 103. The reports showed activity along all lines and the bright, new uniform displayed a brilliancy and splendor commensurate with the principles for which Knighthood stands. Pride of Kentucky, Belle of Kentucky and Grand Old Garrison made their usual fine showing to the delight and admiration of the 750 delegates to the N. G. bodies assembled and especially to admiration of the citizens of St. Paul who expressed their feelings in frequent outbursts of deafening applause. The Local Camp, "Star of the West," made a magnificent appearance to the delight of their fellow townsmen. Eleven camps did not send in their reports and therefore were not represented. These camps by order of the N. G. C. are given sixty days, or till October 1, 1909 to sent in their reports and taxes to the U. K. K. R., Dr. J. A. Lester, 408 Cedar street, Nashville, Tenn. This same order applies also to all camps which have paid only part of annual taxes. Fifty cents addition is made to the annual tax of each knight so that the National Grand Camp will not be embarrassed with debt at each encampment.

J., August 15-18. The Niagara Movement held its fifth annual meeting at Sea Isle City, N. J., August 15 to 18. Ten states were represented with fifty delegates and guests. The meetings of the Movement were held in the Methodist Episcopal Church (white). At the Sunday morning service, (August 15), Dr. W. E. DuBios delivered an address, the object of which was to explain the purpose and aims of the Niagara Movement and to show that the cause of all submerged classes and peoples was practically the same. The annual sermon was preacher by Rev. G. R. Waller, of Baltimore, Md., at the evening service. All who heard it agreed that it was an able exposition of the Christian teaching of human equality and brotherhood. The chief part of the programme of the session was a series of addresses dealing with the "methods of emancipating submerged peoples." Addresses were delivered by Mr. Isaac Rubinow of the United States Bureau of Labor, H. L. Slobodin, a native Russian, and leading Socialist of New York, and Senor Corotti of the Mexican Liberal Junta. The program of future work adopted included the publication of a series of small tracts and an almanac or handbook, the founding of a monthly publication, and the purchase of a permanent place of meeting where annual Chautauquas will be held. The headquarters of the conference was a beach hotel owned by colored people. MISS AMY A. IMES Visiting Nashville for a few days this week was Miss Amy A. Imes, of Philadelphia, Pa. Miss Imes is a sister to Rev. G. Lake Imes, pastor of Howard Congregational Church.

STATE FAIR. In a few days the State Fair, to be conducted by the Negroes of Tennessee, will begin. This will be the second attempt to hold an exhibition to take in the whole state. From present indications the Fair will be a great success. The management is bending every nerve to have the grounds and buildings in readiness by the 21st of this month, which will be the opening day. It is hardly possible to estimate the good that will result from a coming together annually and comparing what has been produced and competing for prizes. Scores of men and women are encouraged to put forth extra endeavor the whole year in order to be able to compete, and if possible, excel all others with an exhibit at the fair. The committee struck a happy idea when they decided to hold the Negro State Fair at the same time the white people are holding theirs. Heretofore very few Negroes have attended the fair conducted by the white people, and largely because it was not convenient for them to attend both, but with the arrangement as it is this year one trip can serve both purposes. It will be well also for the Negroes to visit the fair given by the whites in order to get new ideas. They will find it very profitable to go out and study the exhibits and learn of the possibilities of their own state. We believe all will see the wisdom in the new plan, and that every citizen will work for the success of both fairs. WHY IS IT SO? The Indianapolis Freeman puts the race in a bad light in its comment on what the New York Times says about the colored people. We quote the following from the Freeman: "The New York Times thinks that the colored people should look just like the Lord made 'em—no bleaches, no straightening of the hair. Just well expect the Mississippi to run up stream." We wonder if it has ever occurred to our contemporary how much influence the advertisements in the leading newspapers published by Negroes have upon the people who read them most. The Freeman is one of the oldest and one of the best and most generally read weekly papers published by Negroes in this country. It is looked upon by the thinking people as a reputable journal, and by all the people as a THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1909 representative newspaper. Those who are able to reach conclusions for themselves are not affected by advertisements that are misleading, but all are not thinkers—the majority of the people depend on the newspapers and the magazines to think for them. In view of this fact it becomes the duty on every one who is publishing a paper or magazine to refuse all advertisements coming to them that advertise questionable articles. The New York Times is right. Negroes should be satisfied to remain just as their creator made them. A man as black as pitch is just as comely as the fairest man to be found if he has the same self-pride. The woman with curly hair is just as beautiful as the woman with hair reaching hair way down her back, if she takes as much pride in fixing her hair as the woman with the long hair. But so many of our papers keep glaring advertisements in their columns week after week which guarantee to make a black skin white and curly hair straight that thousands on weak-minded women, and men as well, are to-day using poisonous cosmetics to change the color of the skin or the texture of the hair. These practices are on the increase, and every Negro publisher should ask himself the question, Why is it so? One of the reasons, and the prime one, is that they have read these advertisements in so many Negro newspapers that they have become believers in these false remedies. We fail to agree with The Freeman, but believe that if the Negro press would make a united effort to teach the people the folly in spending their money for these hair and face drugs many of them would heed the teaching, and if the advertisement were kept out of the papers the people would soon forget them. THE DIVIDED HOUSE. When the delegates from Tennessee left for the session of the Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias it was thought that they left with one object in view and that to elect her noble son who has made such an enviable record in this state to a position in the Supreme body. But the result of that election shows conclusively that such was not the case, and much to the regret of the people of Tennessee this state is not represented now at all in the Supreme Lodge. The gallant sons and daughters from the Volunteer State should learn a lesson from the outcome of affairs at Kansas City. There is no state in the Union in which there is no friction in the state organizations, but those are the most successful in national affairs that settle all of their home differences before they go abroad. The little bickerings we have in the family, so to speak, look very different to those not so well acquainted with our internal affairs, and work great harm to the state and to any individual who may aspire to higher things. The men of Tennessee should rise above this practice. They are the equal in every respect to the men of other states. They hold their own as individuals. They can hold their own as a body if they will put aside personilities and work harmoniously in national affairs. BACK TO THE FARM. From every corner of our common country we hear the cry echoing from the valley and the mountain top. "Back to the Farm." In the West a few weeks ago a call was sent out for men to store the wheat crop. Very soon the tobacco, cotton and corn crops will have to be harvested, and the same is true of other products of the farm. Happy ought he to be who knows that when the winter's chilly wind shall begin to blow he can go to his fireside and sit in comfort with the assurance that the corn is in the crib and the baton is in the smoke-house. But nature seems to have decreed that men should love to congregate in cities. The habit is not confined to any special race or class of people, all have the same tendency. The poor man, however, suffers most, and in the South the black man is especially handicapped. The poor white man has open to him the factories, the mills, the stores and the many other occupations necessary to city life, whereas the black man is discriminated against in everything that the white man wants. His wages are not sufficient in most cases for him to live decent, and as a consequence he is forced to live in poorly constructed houses and to go half clad. Often several families are huddled together in one house with only two or three rooms, and practically no ventilation. Under these conditions would it not be a strategical move for the young Negroes to answer the call and trace their steps back to mother earth? Not as a farm hand necessarily, but preferably as a farmer. It is possible to rent a small farm and begin on a small scale and increase the size of the farm in proportion as the knowledge of farming increases. The call bell is ringing now. What will the young Negroes' answer be? The city campaign is on in earnest. Just why the independent candidates are making speeches so early is a question. May be they hope to see weak men elected in the Democratic primary. Dr Frederick A. Cook reports that he has found the North Pole. The achievement puts the famous explorer in a class by himself, and no one will dare dispute his claim. The State of Texas is having her share of cyclones these days. There is great suffering among the poor. How much have Negroes contributed to relieve the situation? We acknowledge receipt of a copy of the "Souvenir Book of the National Medical Association." The book is gotten up in true Boston style. The first twenty days of September are summer days according to the Almanac. They are evidently side-tracked this year. CLARKSVILLE NOTES.

To the Nashville Globe: The press of the South has been called upon to jot down something relative to a nameless-crime-case, in which a white man, a caucasian white man, an Anglo-Saxon white man, a real flesh and blood white man, down in eccentric, wayward Georgia, was enmeshed up to his eyes. Ironically speaking, the gentleman, rich and prominent according to the press, was caught with the shell—the crime—which he was unable to hide. As serious and as heinous as the crime was, it is hardly possible to think of seeing that gentleman, rich and influential, diked out in the frilled and furbelowed petticoats of an old colored lady, false-haired and bonnetted, assuming all of her airs, voice and characteristics, without even the imagination of such a ludicrous sight touching ouribilities. So successfully did he plan his disguise that his victim, a feminine member of his own race, fell an easy prey to the deception. But the "old colored lady," who was none other than the "prominent gentleman," was not so successful in concealing "her" (his) personality. During the assault the victim managed to penetrate the "old lady's" disguise and afterward proclaimed "her" (his) identity. While that gentlemanly white man was garbed in the furnishings or paraphernalia or apparel or duds (take your choice of name) imitative of an old Negress, term used by the newspapers, wonder if he possessed the soul of one? He assumed a new role to deceive his victim, because he knew the old one of burnt cork on his face and hands as a Negro man would not work, for the reason he could not succeed in getting his victim from her home. Here is the gist of the whole matter: such cussedness, such dastardly, villainous cussedness as that Georgia "gentleman" planned and attempted has been so horribly costly to innocent men, and had he escaped detection, by any manner of means, there is no doubt but what one or more colored people would have died on the limb of a tree or at the stake for this gentleman's crime. The white man is a convertible quantity. He can be a white man this hour and the next with a little burnt cork or other "plunder" he can assume the role of a colored man, and then by the vigorous application of water and soap he is back in a trice to his original color. If he is villainously inclined to do some deed which he wishes to be saddled upon some colored man, the foregoing is his receipt for turning the trick. Other instances are on record where "gentlemen" such as the Georgia one have by playing the role of a colored man escaped the consequences of their crimes. The Georgia gentleman committed a capital offense, but owing to his being rich, prominent and influential he practically goes scot-free. Poor old Georgia! Where was her outraged public sentiment, her outraged populace or "best citizens," her restrainless, heroic and bloodthirsty mobs? Oh, where were they, when that desecrator of Southern womanhood, under the guise of an old Negro woman, was pointed out and identified by his victim? Oh, where were the usual chivalrous regulators of the law? Can it be they saw who it was, rich, prominent and influential, and decided it was best to take a kind of Rip Van Winkle nap? Yes, it was right that he should have a trial as it is Will call at your home with a complete line of Toilet Articles, etc., etc. Call him, PHONES M. 1178 or 4035 when you wish to see him.

Miss Lucca George is visiting friends in Union City this week. Miss Isidora Clayette has just returned from a two weeks' visit to her aunt. Mrs. Wells, at Spring Hill. Mrs. Mattie Jones, of St. Louis, who has been visiting her mother and sisters, returned home this week. Mrs. Mattie Dotson, of Union City, who was called to the sick bed of her mother, Mrs. Caroline Bailey, has returned home. Mr. John Johnson, formerly of Antloch, but now of Missouri, is visiting here this week. Rev. J. A. Jones, president of Turner Normal College, lectured here Monday night. Owing to poor management on the part of those who had the lecture in charge, a very small crowd greeted the doctor. Those who heard him were well pleased with the lecture. Dr. Jones made a strong plea for the education and the support of Turner Normal College; for he said, "Sooner or later the Negroes must be educated in institutions owned, controlled and supported by Negroes."

A committee is now at work con- demning the ground in the rear of the Davidson County jail, as contem- plated in the criginal plans. This is caused as the result of the recent at- tempt at escape on the part of Wil- liam Mitchell, the Rutherford Coun- ty man. “The committee has author- ity from the County Court to pro- ceed with such condemnation pro- ceedings as may be “necessary to se- cure the gréund on which the wall is to be built. The necessity for it is recognized and I presume that condemnation proceedings will be commenced by the committee as soon as the Circuit Court convenes.” gee oh SIDEWALK MEASURE VETOED, Mayor Brown has signed all the sewer appropriation measures passed by the last session of the Council but vetoed the bil which provides that the city shall keep in repair all sidewalks for ten years which are put down under inspection, So :0- mor has it that the taxpayers es eape for the time being another bur. den for a year at least. eae ENTERTAINS.

Sug Sis 96 PER CENT OF STRIKES AVOIDED, Charles W. Elict, President Emer- itus, of Harvard University, writes of the extraordinary success of the recent Canadian labor act in the See McClure's as follows: “The thief feature of the benefl- cent Canadian Act called the Indus- trial Disputes Investigation Act was the requirement that, in the event of a dispute arising in any industry known as a public utility? it should THE. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1909. ‘be illegal to resort to a strike to lock- out until the matters-in dispute had ‘been made the subjejet of an investi gation before a Board of Concilia- tion and Investigation ‘to be estab: lished under speelfied rules by the ‘Canadian Minister of Labor. “During the two years from March 22, 1907, to the end of March, 1909, fifty-five applications were . received for the appointment of Boards, un- der which forty-nine Boards were set up. “On the fifty-five applications re- ceived, strikes were avoided or end- ed in twenty-five coal, mines, and four metalliferous mines; in fifteen rail railroads, and three street railways in two bodies of ‘longshoremen; in one body of teamsters, in one body of sailors; and in two industries not public utilities. There were two ‘cases in Which strikes Were not averted or ended, Only two cases, therefore, out of fifty-five ultimately resulted in strikes, these two strikes being in perfect accordance with the wise terms of the- Act, which per mit owners to lock out their men and workmen to strike after the pub lie investigation has been completed and its results published,” THE HOUSEFLY. Hitherto the fly has been regarded complacently as a harmless nut- sance and considered to" be an an: noying creature with great persist- ence and excessive familiarity. . Re- gerded in the light of recent knowl- edge, the fly is more dangerous than the lion or some venomous reptile. Worse than that, he is at least in our climate much more to be feared than the mosquito and he may easily be classed as the most dangerous an: ‘imal on earth. Wherever there are open sewers or garbage piles or, heap or manure, or stack of oyster shells or exposed human excreta or festering corpses of animals, or mouldering paper o' decaying vegetables — in short wherever there is filth—the fly ex ists, for the fly breeds in filth, The solution of the problem is to extermi nate the fly. That sounds like a big task. Perhaps it is. So it is a bij task to exterminate the mosquito Yet when we found: that the mosqui to was our enemy we made warfar upon him. The yellow fever-bearin; stesomyia has been subdued. Th malaria-carrying anophele is des tined to meet the same fate. It will be a leng time before the country is’ fully awake to the danger and a ‘onger time before the fly is sub- dued, Meantime because of flies peo- ple are dying. Cleanliness is the watchword of this fight against flies. It is in filth that flies breed, It is from filth that they pick up the germs that they scatter broadcast. ‘That flies do carry disease germs can be proved in the laboratory. The microscope showed that the leg of the fly is covered with stiff bris- tles. The foot ends in a pair of pin- cers, The mouth and head are rough. When a fly alights on a dirt heap and flies away some of the filth sticks to him. And when the ‘fly walks about he leaves behind him a trail of- filth. The number of germs a fly can carry is almost beyond be- lief. A fly. caught in a room where everything was clean and washed in a bottle of sterilized water had only 500 bacteria. Several others taken from a’ garbage can had about 6, 000,000. bacteria. When we. remem: ber that flies are known to transmit not only typhoid fever and diar rkoeal diseases, but also tuberculo sis and probably influenza, pneumo- nia, diphtheria, scarlet fever and oth er virulent diseases, we can only guess. at the terrible havoc wrought by the housefly. When a fly crawls on your food he leaves behind hin the seeds of death. You will recall how the flies that were washed eleon in the bottle of sterilized wa ter were found to have been swarm ing with millions of bacteria, Some thing similar to this washing hap pens when a fly falls into milk. He struggles to get out and leaves be bind him net only the thousands o} bacteria from bis feet, but all th beeteria he had on his body. Bac teria im milk grow very fast. Ina few Fours. your baby’s milk may be nc longer milk, it may be liquid typhoic fever, And those flies that are fly Ing around your baby’s nose as he fleeps so innocently may just hav come from feasting on a consump tive's sputim. They may leave 1 trail of the dreaded bacillus tuber culosis_on your baby's lips. that ‘you little one, ignorant -of danger, wil draw into his system with his nex breath. Keep your house clean, you yerd clean, your city clean. Yor may think that because flies traye only skort distances it is a matter o no importance to you whether a par of the city two miles away is clea: ud not. It is important. Flies get ‘Into wagons, cars, and on horses and are carried many miles. The pile of garbage three miles away may be just as harmful to you and your ba- bies as though it was in your own yard. You know the fly now. Keep him out of your house. Keep him away from your food and fear him. For the fly is death—Brown and Perry, Bacteriologists. Se | BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.
