THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. IV. HAVE TAKEN POSSESSION OF COLUMBUS. National Convention In Annual Session. COLUMBUS AUDITORIUM PACKED ON OPENING DAY—TWENTY- NINTH MEETING A GREAT SUC- ESS—CITIZENS OF OHIO CITY THROW OPEN THEIR DOORS TO VISITING CLERGYMEN— PRESIDENT MORRIS DELIVERS ANNUAL ADDRESS — REPORTS OF BOARDS EXCEL ALL PREVIOUS YEARS—NATIONAL BAPTIST PUBLISHING BOARD LEADS IN BUSINESS DONE. Columbus, O., Sept. 15, 1909. A conservative estimate to-day pines the attendance of the National Baptist Convention at 2,000 delegates and equally the same number of visitors, who witnessed the auspicious opening of the twenty-ninth annual session of this body and the tenth annual session of the Woman's Auxiliary Convention in the Columbus Auditorium at 10 o'clock this morning. The Convention was called to order by Rev. E. C. Morris, D. D., of Helena, Ark., the President, who is serving his fifteenth consecutive term. The program is a splendid one and well prepared. The welcomes offered on the part of the citizens were profuse and flattering in the highest. The officials, from the municipality of the state, as well as from the religious organizations and secret societies, took up the greater portion of the day. No doubt, some of the ablest speeches and addresses of welcome ever made were delivered here to-day. The Convention opened with devotions led by Rev. Wm. Haynes, D. D., of Nashville, Tenn., and Rev. H. R. Johnson, D. D., of Texas, who took for their theme, "Divine Protection." The following welcome addresses were programed: on behalf of the local committee, Rev. Wm. Z. Thomas, D. D., Columbus; on behalf of the State of Ohio, Governor Judson Harmon; on behalf of the city of Columbus, Mayor Chas. A. Bond; on behalf of the Board of Trade, Hon. Jno. Y. Basell, the Secretary; on behalf of the business interests of Columbus, W. E. King, Attorney-at-law; on behalf of the Negro Baptists of Columbus, Rev. J. L. E. Burr, B. S. L.; on behalf of the white Baptists of Columbus, Rev. A. E. Isaac; on behalf of the Ohio Baptist State Convention. Rev. A. M. Thomas, D. D.; on behalf of other denominations in Columbus Rev. E. L. Gilliam, D. D. Then came the response to all of these wel come addresses, which was made to the credit of the denomination, by one of its laymen hailing from the State of Oklahoma, the Hon. Wm. H. Harrison, of Oklahoma City, an attorney at law, who proved equal to the occasion and did not fail to electrify his audience. The morning was spent and adjournment was taken about 2 p. m. The session in the afternoon was very tardy owing to the length of the morning session. It was opened with devotions led by Rev. L. T. Christmas, of North Carolina, and Rev. R. C. Judkins, of Alabama. The annual address of the President claimed the attention, not only of the Convention and its delegates, but a large part of the citizens of this, the capital of the "Buckeye State." The Negro Baptists look upon Dr. Morris as one of the greatest executives of the country and he proved to-day in the delivery of his address that he is an orator of no mean ability. He displayed splendid oratorical ability, much foresight and a great deal of tact, both in the wording and diction of his address and did not fail to cover every condition that could possibly confront the Baptists or the race. Hundreds of copies of his address were eagerly sought by the large delegation. Next came the report of the Foreign Mission Board opened by remarks by Rev. C. H. Parrish, D. D., the Chairman, while the Secretary, Rev. L. G. Jordan, D. D., NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. THE MEN ACROSS FOURTEEN STATES TO THE NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. BELIEVED TO BE A KIDNAPPER The spirit of the age is for specialization and thoroughness. That the Negro is responsive to this sentiment is demonstrated by the action of four physicians who left this city August 19, 1909 to attend the Annual session of the National Medical Association which convened in Boston, Mass., August 24 to 27, 1909. This party crossed wholly or in part, fourteen states and travelled nearly three thousand miles in making the journey, passing through Chattanooga, Tenn., Atlanta, Ga., Raleigh, N. C., Richmond, Va., Washington, D. C., Baltimore, Md., Philadelphia, Pa., Atlantic City, N. J., New York City, and Providence, R. I., en route to Boston. The personnel of the party accounts for the ovations they received in many of the cities through which they passed. The members of his progressive quartette of leading medicos were as follows: Dr. Willis E. Sterrs, of Decatur, Ala., Secretary of Executive Committee of BELIEVED TO BE STRANGE ACTIONS GREAT EXC There was great excitement in the neighborhood of Fisk University Saturday by the strange actions of a man who is thought to have been a kid-napper. The man, who was a spare-made white man, drove his buggy up in front of Mr. S. P. Harris' house, 1730 Jefferson street, and seeing the children playing in the front yard, asked if their mother was at home. Mrs. D. A. Hart, who lives at 1726 Jefferson street, was away attending a funeral; so her little six-year old girl, Dayton Arabelle, answered the man, "No, mamma is not at home." Mrs. Harris heard the child answer and looked out the window. The man drove his buggy across the street and of Louisville, read the report. Dr. Jordan, for about fourteen years, has been constantly in service as the Foreign Mission Secretary and made a telling report before the Convention. Rev. E. W. Moore, D. D., of Pennsylvania, spoke on "What I See as a Pastor, and My Message to Fellow Pastors," which concluded the afternoon session of the Convention. All during the forenoon trains came in bearing interesting and important contingents to this big Baptist family, until to-night the city is filled with strangers. Delegations are here from every state in the Union, as well as from Central America, the Antilles, Canada and Mexico, to say nothing of the four grand divisions of Africa. Without showing that they had spent from one to four days on the road and without evidencing any fatigue from a continuous session, the delegates assembled at the spacious the N. A. M., Treasurer of the Alabama Medical and Surgical Congress, Proprietor and Chief Surgeon of the Cottage Home Infirmary, of Decatur, Ala.; Dr. A. M. Townsend, Professor of Pathology and Therapeutics in Meharry Medical College and Member of Staff of Wilson Infirmary, and one of Nashville's most popular physicians; Dr. Robt. T. Burt, Proprietor of the Home Infirmary, Clarksville, Tenn., and one of the rising surgeons of the South; Dr. C. V. Roman, the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist of this city, Professor of Diseases of Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat in Meharry Medical College and Editor of Journal of the National Medical Association. The gentlemen all played conspicuous parts in the session which they sacrificed so much to attend. The Globe congratulates these gentlemen upon this display of zeal in their chosen profession. It argues well for the race to have professional men thus devoted to their professions. E A KIDNAPPER OF MAN CREATES CITEMENT. hitched his horse and was making his way toward the children. He was about to enter the gate at Mrs. Crawley's, 1728 Jefferson street, when Mrs. Harris called to Mrs. Crawley telling her that there was a man in the front yard. The intruder heard the alarm, and without a moment's hesitation broke for his buggy, leaping in and giving his horse a rap with his whip drove at break-neck speed to Eighteenth avenue and turned South and was soon out of sight. The people in the neighborhood were so very much worked up over the actions of the man that the case was reported to the police and they are working on the case. auditorium to-night to begin their evening work. Devotions were led by Rev. J. W. Hurst, D. D., of Kansas City, Mo., and Rev. T. G. Atkins, D. D., of Virginia, their theme being "World-wide Missions." Rev. A. R Griggs, D. D., of Texas, spoke on foreign missions, while the foreign mission sermon was preached by Rev. R. Kemp, D. D., of South Carolina, who had as an alternate, Rev. P. H. Kennedy, of Kentucky. Columbus, O., Sept. 16. The second day's session of the national body of the Baptists showed the complete arrival of the delegations from the various states. Promptly at 9 o'clock devotion was held. The program provided for Rev. B. P. E. Gayles, of Illinois, and Rev. Wm. Taylor, D. D., of Louisiana, with the theme "How to Succeed." The Secretary, Prof. Hudson, read and secured (Continued on Page 3.) SUBSCRIBERS AND CORRESPONDENTS TAKE NOTICE. There are several communities in the State in which there is some one who is kind enough to send us the news each week. We thank them for this kindness. But has it ever occurred to you that it is just as easy to get subscriptions as it is to get news? Well, if you have not thought along that line we beg your attention for a minute. We want the news from every community each week, but we will not need it unless there are people in that community who are de irous of reading the news that tells what they are doing. We know that when people have news put in the paper about themselves they want to read it after it is put in the paper, and they would rather pay their money to the reporter than any one else, because they know he is the one who will look after the news about them. We must have an agent in every city, town and community in this State. To accomplish this we have decided that every correspondent must be an agent. So hereafter each one sending news must also send subscribers for the Globe. We have the names of a number of persons whose subscriptions will soon expire. Any one desiring to become an agent and correspondent, write us at once and we will send you a list to work by. All delinquent subscribers are being dropped from our list, which makes it a very opportune time to begin. Write at once to the NASHVILLE GLOBE, Nashville, Tenn. THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY DINNER. On last Sunday afternoon Mrs. Lizzie Esters was hostess at her palatial residence on the Hapshire road, Columbia, Tenn., to a large number of friends who had assembled in honor of her thirtieth anniversary. Promply at 5 o'clock the guests marched across the spacious lawn to the dinner table, which was laden with all the delicacies of the season. The table was artistically decorated with vases filled with beautiful flowers. A two-course menu was served. Seated around the table were the following guests: Rev. and Mrs. S. L. Howard, Rev. and Mrs. Wm. H. Porter, Dr. T. W. Stephens, Mrs. Annie Kelley and daughter, Mrs. Annie Pearl Crews, Mrs. E. C. Creer, of Birmingham, Ala., Mrs. John Smith and father, Mrs. Alice Joyce, Mrs. Tom Ella HackneyMesdames Jennie Stones, Emma Kennedy, Myria Porter, Dora Perkins, Emma Cooper, Carrie Hill, Mr. and Mrs. R. T. Ward, Miss Blanche Howard, Master J. W. Howard, Master Jno. Webster Smith, Little Misses Myrtle Howard, Bulah Howard and Anna L. Smith. As the sun began to sink behind the western hills, each guest knowing that his appetite, had been appeased and after wishing the hostess many bright sunshine days and prosperous years, began to wend their steps homeward. BRIERSVILLE NOTES. Miss Mattie Webb and Miss Katie Pettis, of this place, left Sunday, September 12th for Louisville, Ky., where they will spend a few weeks the guests of Miss Pettis' brother, Mr. Wm. H.

FIVE DAYS OF REAL PROFIT AND PLEASURE-GREENWOOD PARK A VERITABLE PALACE-THE LAWNS ARE BEAUTIFUL BEYOND DESCRIPTION - DRIVEWAYS AS FINE AS ANY IN THE SOUTH-BANK TO BE LOCATED ON THE GROUNDS- FRIDAY WILL BE CHILDREN'S DAY-LADIES' BUILDING TO BE A SPECIAL FEATURE - ABUNDANCE TO AMUSE CHILDREN. On Tuesday, the 21st of this month, the second exhibition of the Tennessee Colored Fair Association will be thrown open to the public in the beautiful Greenwood Park. It is well remembered that this project was started in 1908 and that the beginning was very flattering, all things considered. The Committee on Arrangements has been busy since September 1908 preparing for a better Fair by far than what they had in 1908. That they have succeeded beyond the most sanguine expectations of all is an indisputable fact. Greenwood Park has been converted into a veritable palace. Beautiful lawns have been built from one end of the Park to the other. The drive ways are as beautiful as can be found anywhere in the south, and everything tends to impress one that the master hand has engineered the perfection of the plans and the execution of the same that have achieved such great success for the Fair Association. At the entrances one first comes in touch with the club house. It is situated a little distance from the front gate. The lawn in front of the club house presents a beautiful picture of shubbery bedecked with lawn settees and other ornaments to beautify and attract the eye. On entering the club house the first attraction to be seen will be a suite of suite of rooms occupied by two of the leading professional men of the city in the person of Rr. C. V. Roman, the Eye Specialists and Dr. E. B. Jefferson, a popular Dentists of the city. They will have on exhibit work in their various lines. Passing through the hallway you come to the first of the number of refreshment parlers. This parlor is beautifully arranged and is kept by expert waiters and waitresses. Passing on to the southwest the ladies' building is reached. This department in the Fair of 1909 will be one of the special attractions of the Fair. The ladies are putting forth every effort in their power to excel in their building. The management has turned over to them the spacious skating rink and has converted the same into an exhibition and demonstration hall. Here will be seen the work of art, science, industrial exhibitions and demonstrations along various lines. In the center of the hall has been erected a circular mound on which will be exhibited preserves, fruits and other articles prepared for the table. This will be no doubt the most beautiful building on the grounds and also attract the attention of all the passersby. The next building reached is the Amusement hall, where is found shooting galleries, bowling alley, baby stands and a Happy Holigan show. An electric piano is located in this building which furnishes music constantly for those engaged in the various sports and past times. In going from the front section of the Park to the rear section or Fair grounds, proper, the committee has provided that those who may desire may rid them selves of the walk down and up the hill. The have several vehicles drawn by Shetland ponies and jennets. They are particularly to amuse the children but are used also as conveyance for those who desire to secure them. Descending from the amusement hall and passing down the ravine leading to the reservoir and zoological garden, the spectator will pass the merry-go-round NATION'S CONGRESS Children's Matinee, Saturday afternoon, September 18, at 2 o'clock. Many nations will be represented at this Congress. The Americans are offering a large Negro doll to the boy or girl holding the lucky number, tickets for the doll may be had from Mrs. Amanda Frierson. Don't miss the first night, get a program for the week. This Congress will be instructive as well as interesting; visit the Japanese Sacred Garden, also the Hard Time Restaurant, with Squaw Hard Times as manager, where the victuals will be cooked from a hole in the ground. Gates open at 7 o'clock p. m., program each night will begin promptly at 7:30. A big text has been secured by Rev. D. T.

The zoo is a new feature of the part and has been added for the special amuse- ment of the visitors to the Fair. It will be surprising to see the number of wild animals that have been collected in so short a time in the Zoo at Greenwood Park. After looking at these minor amusements the visitors will ascend the long stairway to the Fair grounds. The auditorium has been improved upon to accommodate the exhibits to be installed. Exhibitors have been working ardously for several days putting in their exhibits. Every train brings from the different sections of the country products, of the farm, factory and the mill, the poultry yard and the cattle pasture things to be exhibited at this Fair. Several of the county Fairs have held their meetings and the State Fair will serve as a complete point for the various county organizations.

High-Class Service Being Given on Two of the Leading Roads in the South That Pass Through Nashville. Railroad travel to-day is a luxury, judging from the thousands who travel. There was a time when it became an absolute necessity and, in fact, in some instances now it is regarded as such but the palatial, well-furnished, lightning express trains that dart here and there, in the different sections of the country, generally crowded with passengers, mean the rapid advance of civilization Nashville has four of these trains passing through it daily. An argument is made in railroad circles as to which is the better of the two trains. One of them is on the Louisville & Nashville and comes through from Cincinnati going south, leaving Nashville every morning, if on time, at 2:25 a.m. This train makes but few stops between Nashville and Birmingham. It is known as train No. 1 going south. The first stop out of Nashville is Franklin; the next is Columbia, a distance of 46 miles; then Pulaski, 79 miles away; then Athens, Ala., 107 miles; then Decatur, 122 miles distant, and finally it reaches Birmingham 207 miles from Nashville at 8:25 in the morning, Montgomery, a distance of 304 miles, is reached by 11 o'clock. It arrives at Mobile at 4:12 and at New Orleans at 8:30 the same evening. Coming back, passengers are given the same accommodation, reclining chairs, smoking room, and to-day the Negro is receiving really better accommodation on the roads than ever before. Another argument is made that the Dixie Flyer operated out of Nashville south by the. Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad is a better train. This train going south reaches the Nashville Union Station at 12:07 daily. It has splen did ulcumps and in point of service and schedule it is easily one of the best trains in the south. The first stop on the Dixie Flyer going south is Murfreesboro, 32 miles away; the next stop is Wartrace, a distance of 55 miles; and the third stop is Tulla homa, 69 miles from Nashville; it reaches Chattanooga at 4:35 p.m. and Atlanta at 8:42, going through to Jacksonville, Fla., arriving there at 8:25 the next morning. On the tri north both of these trains make a total and fast schedule time, hence the Negro is taking advantage of the ride both in his business interests and on his pleasure trips.

The publis school opened Mon-Monday with a good attendance. The same corps of teachers are at their old places. The local board of trustees of Turner Normal College had a "working" Tuesday. They are tearing down the old Knott's Hall, the building on Martin street, formerly occupied by the school. The lumber is being hauled out to the college campus for the purpose of using it in the direction of erecting additional buildings on the new grounds. Quarterly meeting was held at the M. E. and A. M. E. Church last Sunday. The two presiding elders, Revs. H. L. P. Jones and R. C. Smith, were both in town. It is said that both meetings were successes. Dr. J. A. Jones was at Unionville last Sunday, and preached for Rev. E. Brothers. Great activity is on now out at Turner Normal; preparations are being made for the grand opening next Tuesday. Students and teachers are already arriving. Dr. Jones states that there will be a larger attendance at the opening than ever before known in the history of the institution. Improvements and repairs have been made on the boys' building, and the laundry besides many new additions will greet the eyes of the last year students. Turner Normal Foot-ball team is already lining up, and say that they will have to be reckoned with this fall. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. This is to certify that John B.

The average Afro-American who does not reside within reasonable traveling distance of the old city of Brooklyn, now known as the Borough of Brooklyn, imagines it is a place of little or no consequence, rather than one of large extent in territory and population. It is the largest component portion comprising the city of Greater New York, being over 40 square miles in area and peopled with over 1,200,000 souls. Few of the many visitors to New York City ever have the privilege of learning about Brooklyn, or as it is commonly known, the "City of Churches," excepting possibly during the summer months when passing through on the way to our famous Coney Island. When a resident of Brooklyn, Staten Island or Long Island City goes traveling afar from home, he generally registers as being from New York, for were he to mention his own immediate residential location, no one would have the least idea what part of the state he was from, although, all three places just referred to, go a long way to make up the great city of New York. When reference is made to a "New Yorker" it means one who resides upon the Island of Manhattan or in the Borough of Manhattan, which is only four miles in width at its widest and about twelve in length at its longest point, although it houses over 1,000,000 persons. By the "New Yorkers," Brooklyn is called a "dead place," no doubt because of the existence of so many cemeteries, where most of them take up a permanent residence in the course of time. This apparent "deadness" is accounted for because of the fact that New York is a "cosmopolitan town," where good, bad and indifferent, all live and mingle together; while Brooklyn, the city of churches and homes, boasts of an exclusiveness, original and tightly drawn. The Negro population of New York is made up of mostly "new comers" and "transients" from all over the country, with but very few of whom can be considered our representative citizens, while in Brooklyn can be found the descendants of many old and respected New Yorkers some of whom can trace a lineage back to 75 and over 100 years residence in the development of Manhattan. These are representatives of the wealth, culture and real social feature of the greater city among its citizens of color, an intimate acquaintance of whom shall be made later on. The extent of the territory included in the city of Brooklyn cannot be adequately described in order to give the reader a correct and close idea as to the amount of land it covers. There are many streets the existence and location of which are unknown to many residents. The streets of old Boston are considered a national puzzle and are a joke familiar to most Americans, but those in Brooklyn are a close second, if not a good first. Many have from two to three distinct names at various portions of their length. For illustration in one portion of the city, known as the Eastern District, which at one time comprised the old village of Williamsburg, one can find the "north" and south numbered streets. In the Western District of Brooklyn proper, are the numbered "streets" and "places." In South Brooklyn are the "Bay" numbered streets, the continuation of the regular numbered streets and all crossed by the numbered "avenues." Toward the Gravesend district are the "west" numbered streets, while the "east" numbered ones are to be found in Shelbyshead Bay and Flatbush which districts were formerly villages of the same names. All of these streets you will readily note are located in various district portions of this great borough. The city is the location of the largest Navy Yard; it contains at least a dozen cemeteries some of them as large and as beautiful as any to be found elsewhere; in its heart is Fort Green (Washington Park) where the battle of Long Island was fought during the Revolutionary War and where lie the bones of the famous "Prison-Ship" martyrs at the base of a costly monument erected to their memory. The largest national park (Prospect by name) in the state and many smaller ones. There are three different horse race courses, the Coney Island Jockey Club at Sheepshead Bay has two courses, one a mile in circumference and the other a mile and three eighths, both almost adjoining and occupying enough land for a fair-sized city; the Brooklyn Jockey Club has one at Gravesend and there is the Brighton Beach Motodrome, which formerly was under the control of the Brighton Beach Racing Association. Among the armed forces of the state, are three regiments of infantry, one of heavy artillery, one field battery; signal corps; naval militia and a cavalry troop. We have Coney Island, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. comprising the longest and largest continuous series of amusement and summering beach on the Atlantic and probably the world; other such places are Rockaway Beach, Bergen Beach, Sheepshead Bay, Far Rockaway Canarsie, together with camping beaches at Rockaway, Plum Island and Rockaway Point. For driveways there are Shore Road along the bay side; the Boulevard from Prospect Park to Coney Island and Eastern Parkway with its passage for pedestrians, driving and motoring, shaded by countless trees and reaching from its beginning as far as the eye can see, planked on either side along its route with handsome residences. While Brooklyn has many and large business enterprises, it is typically a city of homes, ninety per cent of its wage-carners being employed in New York. All of the house, even in the built up portion are so located, that each has a front and back yard, a feature entirely missing in New York, where both rich and poor in most all quarters gaze upon asphalt in front and flag stones in back without a tree to be seen except now and then or in the parks. A domestic custom peculiar to Brooklyn is that homely sight of the man of the family trundling the baby carriage. This is an old and time home custom which has been handed down from generations without memory or record and can only be wittenessed in its truest sense and completed detail in this "town." On pleasant Saturday afternoons and Sundays, one can see more baby carriages propelled by "man power" than in the four remaining boroughs combined. Race suicide is an unknown feature in Brooklyn life. The various beaches etc., are reached by numerous branches of two transportation companies. One of them having the largest and most complex railroad system in America. This particular company has at the very least, forty different trolley lines and five elevated lines which in the suburbs become or rather furnish five additional surface branches. Notwithstanding the large number of churches and the influences they exert this surface system causes many of its patrons to lose sight of those good influences by the most wretched service it very often furnishes. The other surface company has only three lines, they are however long and go through important traffic gathering locations. Other places of interest are the academy of music, the Museum of the Institute of Arts and Sciences, the Masonic Temple, the various branches of the Public Library, the three suspension bridges and Fort Hamilton, government reservation along the Narrows, also various water-works and the soldiers and sailors' monument at the center of prospect Park.

It is encouraging to note that the State Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal, Ala., under its new head, President Walter S. Buchanan, is offering young men and women of character and pluck an opportunity to work their way through school. A splendid night school is conducted for the benefit of students who must pay their expenses by working in the shops all day. A limited number of day pupils are allowed to work out from one to three dollars per month. Additional courses and the new schedule, giving more time to shop work, make it possible for more students to gain proficiency in the trades. President Buchanan is making a special effort to meet the needs of girls and boys of limited means who wish to learn trades while they pursue their regular literary courses. --- Mrs. Jennie Cheatham Lee left the city Friday for Tuskegee, where she will again continue her splendid work as directress of music. WONDERFUL GROWTH OF A. N. JOHN= SON'S UNDERTAKING BUSINESS. [Picture of a man in a suit and tie]. A. N. JOHNSON. Two years ago the people of Nashville were astounded when it was announced that a new undertaker had opened business in Nashville. Most doubted his success, because they thought that he would follow beaten paths and give similar service to that accustomed. This aroused their curiosity and they went to see the man, who unheralded, had dared to open business in Nashville. Surprise expresses the feeling mildly. Every particle of doubt was removed when a man of capability, experience and ability met them. They saw at a moment that the undertaking business in Nashville had been revolutionized. There was not a doubting Thomas after a visit. It was seen at once that Mr. Johnson was a master of the undertaking business and the embalming profession. His beautiful ladies' waiting room, the first of the kind ever established for our women in any part of the country; where no smoking is allowed, where no men congregate and joke, but a place of quiet refinement where every colored lady can wait as long as she feels like it in comfort, free from annoyance. This was appreciated and made friends for Mr. Johnson. Then the idea of a chapel where funeral services can be conducted in a dignified and appropriate manner, a real morgue, where bodies can be carried and properly prepared for burial or investigations in post mortems were all new to the people, who had accepted services far behind the times. The people thought they were getting service—some did; but those who had known Mr. Johnson knew that HIS SERVICE would be an eye opener to the public and his success was assured from the start. The baby hearse was a new idea. A funeral car of smaller dimensions than commonly used for grown up people, drawn by snow-white Arabian ponies, was such a far step in advance of anything in funeral services that it has not been imitated or attempted. The beautiful white carved funeral car, massively built, with interchangeable curtains is in a class by itself and is known by even the children in the street. The snow white Arabian mares were bought by Mr. Johnson at a princely price to use in this funeral car. There is not living, any pair of horses more beautiful or perfectly matched. The Arabians are the only people who can breed these horses snowy-white, without a dark spot the size of a pin's point and so well matched that they cannot be distinguished apart. This span of horses MAROXII THE HORSE CARRIAGE is admired by thousands, who comment with admiration whenever they see them. Together with other white horses, all beautifully matched, when hitched to the modern Brougham or Landau carriages of Mr. Johnson's proves the most beautiful cortege seen in the entire country. Of course there have been improvements made since Mr. Johnson opened business. THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN But Mr. Johnson's coming—his up-to-date outfit, his brilliant service forced others to improve but with that improvement Mr. Johnson is so far in the lead that competitors have gotten out of the race, leaving him in a class all to himself. The acquiring of the Porter Mansion was a strategic move on his part, thus placing one of the largest pieces of down-town realty in the hands of the race. In the magnificent building is located an appropriate chapel, well-arranged waiting rooms, show rooms (3 in number), where are displayed the handsomest line of caskets, robes and funeral furnishings ever displayed outside of a factory. "We never thought a colored man would have such an institution," said a prominent white man, who had ```markdown ``` heard of the place through his employee and who was unwilling to believe until he had seen for himself. The strong feature which stamps real ability in this profession or business is embalming. The satisfactory kind. Not the kind which causes an uneasiness on the part of the family as to whether the body will keep; and in which you are always in the look out—expecting something. The people know A. N. Johnson embalms. Satisfactorily embalms. Takes the body and makes it look lifelike. Not cadaveric, frightful, spotted or blackened but gives to it that lifelike color, composure and condition which relieves all the horror and causes you to say, "Why she looks like she's asleep." Some people are goverened by sentiment, others are led by those who are paid to lead them when they are in distress. Others have not the courage to be independent and spend their money where they get the modern services; but the great mass of the people, those who are frugal and carry insurance and are independent, this class who love their own and must see the last duty performed and respect shown, go where they know they can get the best undertaking service and that is A. N. Johnson, 422 Cedar street, whose phone is Main 763. They are assured that Mr. Johnson will give them his careful, personal attention, and they don't feel that their loved dead have been neglected. --- The Nashville Globe.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. CITY PARKS. We have on other occasions called attention to the unjust discriminations that are being made by the Park Commission in locating city parks, but no attention, it seems, has been given to our complaint. We were hopeful that the Commission would join in the effort to have parks and play grounds established and maintained in the communities thickly populated with colored people, but so far as we have been able to learn nothing has been done in that direction. The Negroes of this city are entitled to a just proportion of the parks and playgrounds established, and it is the duty of the Park Commission to see to it that all the people of the city are made as comfortable as they have the power to make them. There is no law prohibiting colored people from frequenting any park or playground that is the property of the city, and no such law can be enacted that would be constitutional according to law, but it is the desire of the Negroes of this city to avoid any cause for agitation for such a law regardless of how unjust it would be. They therefore do not frequent the city parks. But it cannot be expected that such will continue to be the case. They know that it is their privilege, if they desire to do so, to go into the parks and as often as they want to so long as they conduct themselves properly, but being a peace-loving people, they suffer the heat of the long summer days rather than do what they believe would bring about unpleasant relations. The conservative men of both races should take this matter under consideration and ad just it. We believe it can be done, and in a way that would be satisfactory to all parties. "DEAD CERTAINTY." The slang expression, "Dead Certainty," is commonly heard among the young generation of Negroes. Boys twelve and fourteen years old are often heard to make use of it. It means that things are going to be just as they are calculated to be. For instance, if a man is working for wages he believes that he will be paid every cent due him on pay day. He does not see how it could be otherwise. Mr. So and So has thousands of dollars, and it is a "dead certainty" that he will pay his hands when the time comes, when as a matter of fact he is --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1909. not sure that he will be able to do any such thing. This "Dead Certainty" notion is one of the handicaps to the young Negro. It keeps the boys from attempting things that might be made a success. Black boys are not willing to work on commission at anything. They prefer to work a week for one dollar to doing something at which twice that amount might be realized by putting forth an effort. Parents are responsible for their boys having such notions. It is a serious mistake. We should teach our children that nothing man has to do with is too certain, and that possibilities are often of far greater value than "dead certainties." MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS. In a few days the democratic primary will be held in this city. As a rule all country and city elections in this state are settled in the democratic primaries, but this year some of the offices at least will have to be settled at the polls. The Negro men of this city should not lose sight of that fact. True, all the candidates will be democrats, but there are some bad democrats, and these are the ones we want to keep out of office. There is only one way that can be done, and that is by paying your poll tax, registering and voting. It is foolish to sit down and say, "Ah! they are all Democrats, I won't vote for any of them." There are men, and thousands of them, honest and fearless, and who would dare do the right toward all who have been staunch democrats all their lives. It is a mistaken idea that a man is bad because he is a democrat. We have some republicans, and right in Nashville, who are as unworthy of trust as men get to be, and are as rank enemies to the Negro as can be found on the globe. The thing the Negro voters want to do is to prepare to vote, then study the candidates and vote for the men they believe to be the best, whether he be democrat, populist or what not. Booker T. Washington in discussing "The Negro's Life in Slavery," in The Outlook of September 11, quotes a conversation with a woman in the state of Kansas, who when asked if she would not like to go back to the old days and live as she lived on the plantation, said, "Sometimes I feel as I'd like go back and see my old massa and missus, but they sold my baby down South." Reflecting is a powerful barrier to forgiving and forgetting. Mr. Hiliary Howse, an aspirant for Mayoralty honors in the city democratic primary, is quoted in a daily papers as having said, that he went to Hopkinsville during the last session of the Legislature to prevent the passage of a law that would have allowed Negroes to watch white men at the polls. We did not know we had a man in Nashville so illusive. The tariff does not suit everybody, so the President is trying to get himself in position to crack the heads of the members of Congress. He believes in self-preservation. If the Negroes of Tennessee should agree on something one time we could raise a sensation equal to the North Pole controversy. We will have a pennant this year despite Atlanta. Pearl High School settled that question in May. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. Seemingly there is an unrest between the Northern and Southern Negroes which has existed for years. This should not be, and they oppose each other on every hand. It appears that the South wants the whole recognition, regardless of what may follow or the result that is brought, to bear upon the race. The North is standing as compact as the Rocks of Glbralter and says "look on me, ye sons of the Southland for great am I, and it is through and by me, that the great political" sphere of the country is swayed.—Kentucky Reporter. *** The women should stay out of town when they have no special business there. A man should count it a disgrace to let his wife stand around a public streets. It is impossible for people to respect women who are con- tinually loafing around where they have no business. In other words: If you allow yourself to be a worm, keep quiet if you are trodden on. While this condition is not generally prevalent around Mound Bayou, yet there are some cases on record herea-bouts that could stand some improvement.—The Demonstrator. If the worst come to the worst and the suffrage amendment passes Druid Hill avenue will have a large contingent of voters, to the contrary notwithstanding. The way the Afro-American is accumulating homes is something wonderful. One Afro-American said a few years ago they would not disfranchise him for he had bought a home for the express purpose of keeping his vote. This is good in more ways than one. But if the thing keeps up and the colored brother should get it into head to purchase all the property he can get his hand on, what will become of the other fellow?—Afro-American Ledger. Statistics show that farming is not only one of the most progressive industries, but one of the most independent of to-day. Twenty years ago America's farm, with their stock and agricultural implements, were valued at less than $18,000,000,000. Now they are worth $30,000,000,000. This equals the value of the shares and bonds of all the corporations.—The Advocate. Normal Is Succeeding. We note here that the A. and M. College, one of the oldest colored schools in the State is rapidly gaining its former standing for success. Prof. W. S. Buchanan, its president, is not leaving a single stone unturned to make the school what it should be in the development of the race. We are glad to note that he is held in high regard by the Board of Commission and the entire faculty. Gov. B. B. Comer, the present governor of the State, is an honorary member of the board and also State Superintendent Gunnels.—Birmingham Herald. COMMUNICATION Egotism. To the Nashville Globe: Oh, that we could see ourselves as others see us! is the substance of a thought penned and given to us mortals by some "human man," very human, observantly human, because it is an observation which would do us "human mortals" much good were we to heed the pointed hint it contains. He who coined this sentence may have long since passed away, but in it he left to the world an inestimable legacy, rich in suggestive wisdom, were it to avail itself thereof. Nations, and individuals as well, become self-centred, self-delusioned, self-opinionated, and why? The answer is far to seek. The reason why nations or individuals become so self-inflated, so self-glorious, so self-immortal, it is difficult to imagine and far more difficult to explain. Yes, when the imagination has been stretched to its fartherest limit, it will still be far this side of a reasonable explanation or answer. He who has read history to purpose has come into possession of information relative to nations, as graphically described by Gibbons in his "Rise and Decline of the Roman Empire," and Victor Hugo's matchless portrayal of his beloved France and its woes in his "Les Miserables," that have come to grief because of their insatiate national self-conceit and overweaning self-importance to the exclusion of any consideration of their neighbors. What has been recorded of nations has been equally true of individuals, as seen by Shakespeare's description of the downfall of Cardinal Wolsey; the gifted Sheridan's story of the overthrow of the great Corsican, whom he characterized as "a man without a shadow or a name." The roadway of history as it wound its way through the centuries is strewn with the remains of the shattered and wrecked ambitions and self-delusions of nations and individuals that have wilfully forgotten or foolishly ignored the fact that, in the current and expressive language of the street, "there are others." When some bard said: "Our sons their fathers' failing language see. And such as Chaucer is shall Dry denbe." den be, he meant that there would always be progress and plenty of progressive men. Back to our text, Oh, that we could see ourselves as other people see us. Out of this we "human mortals" get sufficient food-thought for the most serious and beneficial reflection. Let us remember that no nation nor race nor cabal nor individual can occupy and monopolize the entire stage to the exclusion of all the other players in the great and intense drama of human affairs.

JADECEE. FAREWELL PARTY. Misses Beatrice and Roberta Walker and Miss Tillie McCall gave a very beautiful dance in honor of Miss Edwina Smith, at the residence of the Misses Walker, on Jo Johnston avenue. The Walker home is especially fitted for entertaining; and this being the first time the new home has been opened since the fire. The house and grounds were brilliantly lighted and presented a beautiful sight together with the young girls in their gay summer dresses. Dancing was enjoyed until a late hour. The dance cards were hand painted by Miss Roberta Walker. The design was a three-leaf clover, all save one which was a four-leaf clover, and the lucky young man who drew the four leaf had the honor of the first dance with Miss Smith, the honoree. The lucky one was Mr. Calvin McKissack. An ice-course was beautifully served. The usual younger set was present; also Dr. and Mrs. F. G. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. A. N.

HEADQUARTERS IN NASHVILLE. When the National Baptist Convention adjourns its twenty-ninth annual session Tuesday, September 21, there will be added to Nashville the headquarters for another department of the Baptist work. It will be that of the Teacher-Training Service, a department that practically opened September 1, although the headquarters have not been formally thrown open for business. This is on account of the inability of the superintendent of that department, the Rev. N. H. Pius, D. D., recently of Springfield, O., to report for duty. This Teacher-Training Service, according to what the Baptists say about it, is instituted or inaugurated for the purpose of properly training teachers and scholars in the Sunday-school so that they can teach with greater force, accurateness, and more simplicity, yet in a way that will attract the thousands of young people to the Sunday-school, the teacher's Bible. The course has been laid out for more than three years, said Dr. Boyd, just before going to the convention, but on account of financial disturbances a superintendent was not selected until just before the Sunday-School Congress and he was not to begin work until the close of the fiscal year which was August 31st. It is not known when Dr. Pius and family will reach Nashville, but that headquarters will be here, is certain, as it has already been announced, and because the work will be under the direct supervision of the Secretary of the Publishing Board. It is supposed, however, that Dr. Pius will begin his first work here in Nashville, starting with a class made up out of the forty odd Baptist churches and Sunday-schools in this city. Dr. Pius will also have charge of the music of the Publishing Board from now on and in his travel will represent the sixteen different song books and anthems published by this concern of the National Baptist Convention. This is another important addition to the splendid advantages Nashville has over other cities and shows that it is an attractive center with an advantageous geographical location. REV. AND MRS. R. U.

Huntsville is a new Huntsville, ripe and ready to meet the Fair and to greet the many friends who shall come here to witness this grand production of a moving people. Everything that can make the visitors' stay here pleasant is being prepared, so that there will not be one cause to frown. The streets are being put in fine condition and a most excellent car system is being completed. Boarding houses are being renovated, new help is being hired that those who come may not be inconvenienced at all. Things are all afire now, not with excitement of the North Pole, but over the many things that are marching on to the Great Negro Fair. Everybody is on fire about this unsurpassed event. People who have never been excited, who could not be moved, are now just hustling to be ready to meet the attractions of the Fair. The ladies are not dozing in their cozy corners amid all of this excitement, but they are vying with each other to see who can put on the best exhibition. Chickens are being fattened, flowers are being highly cultivated, preserves are being examined, experiments are being made in pie and cake baking-all for the Fair. In the Department of Arts, especially original work, the most lively rivalry is being manifested to excel everything that was exhibited last year. Needle work of the most delicate kind is being prepared, designs that seem impossible for the hands to execute are being made. Some of the finest exhibitions ever seen will be displayed in this department. Out in the rural districts the news has taken wings and the farmers are preparing to take all of the premiums. Cows and mules are getting more feed than ever before, for they too are going to the Fair. You have seen babies giggle and grown people laugh, but down here, mules that have spent their lives kicking have now turned to laughing, and we, too, are grinning, because we are all getting ready for the Fair. The interest has been so intense from abroad that the colored citizens in one of our cities have secured a special car to bring them here. You know from this there must be some miracles working here. It won't do for you to miss this. Come, if you have to ride in an air ship. The young people are also elated. They know that it means an enjoyable time for them. The young ladies are practicing so as to be able to compete for the Blue Ribbon which will be given to the most graceful woman driver and rider. The competition in the circle is very close as several of our most prominent young ladies mean to carry off the palm. Letters are crowding the secretary's office daily for space, and a number of first-class attractions have already been booked. Some of the best young speed horses in the Tennessee valley are being trained and practiced daily for the big races which are to take place. Now, we are all in a hurry in this North Alabama Colored Fair, and if you want to join us in this grand march to success and have a big time seeing things you have never seen before, you must get ready and hurry too.
