JUBILEE DAY
GELEBRATED AUSPIGIOUSLY AT FISK UNIVERSITY
Reminiscence Meeting Held Tuesday Night.
LIVINGSTONE HALL CHAPEL
CROWDED — STUDENTS, VISITORS AND MEMBERS OF FACULTY LISTEN TO TALKS BY EARLY GRADUATES—MEMBERS OF THE FIRST JUBILEE TROUPE TELL THEIR EXPERIENCES — MANY PRIVATIONS ENDURED IN THE BEGINNING —THE ENDING A GREAT SUCCESS—OTHERS RELATE EXPERIENCES — BANQUET TUESDAY NIGHT.
On last Tuesday night there was assembled in the chapel of Livingstone Hall, of Fisk University, a large congregation made up of students of the university, the alumni and friends from the city. The occasion could well be termed a reminiscence, the meeting being held as it was one day previous to the annual Jubilee Day celebration. Several of the early graduates of the university were present and a few of the original Jubilee Singers who made their first tour in the interest of the institution in its early days. One among these was Mrs. Ella Shepherd Moore. After the opening of the exercises with devotions Mrs. Moore was introduced by Rev. Morrow, who was conducting the exercises and she gave an interesting account of the struggles and privations endured by that group of young Negroes who started out from Nashville in the early seventies under the late Prof. George L. White. It was amusing and at the same time pathetic story to hear her tell of how the students lived in the first building occupied by Fisk University and how little they had to subsist upon, would bring tears to the eyes of any one, but they were soon wiped away as the speaker would in the next few minutes tell how jovially the Negroes in those days would take the situation, and aside from little apparent obstacles that would in this day retard many from the effort of receiving an education. Her ghost story was amusing in deed, and with that she said that in those days hunger was no stranger to the students of that school and that they made singing a specialty, and it was clearly brought out that had it not been for the power of song the University could not have existed. She said the first singers that left Nashville in the interest of Fisk University were selected from a band of thirty and that as they made their way north they were called "Nigger Minstrels." In the city of Cincinnati they were scorned on every hand and had no apparent success until they reached the city of New York, but after they had reached the metropolis of the country their cause soon reached the ears of the people and what had appeared to them the darkest night was turned into one of the brightest days. She told how the crowds thronged to hear them sing in the city of New York and that the first year those humble singers returned to Nashville with all of their traveling expenses paid and with a cash balance on hand of $25,000. She read a letter from a friend in Holland who is until this day making inquiries about Fisk University and some of the relics given to the Jubilee Singers while in that country. It is a fact that is not generally known by all of the people that Jubilee Hall, that magnificent brick building, standing as an everlasting monument, was erected from the funds accumulated from concerts given by the Jubilee singers. All told, they raised $165,000, $150,000 of which was put into Jubilee Hall and $15,000 was given towards the erection of Livingstone Hall. Every Negro in America should look with pride at Jubilee Hall at Fisk University, for it is the result of the efforts of those earnest, conscientious Jubilee Singers who went out against

hope, feeling their way in the darkness, leaving loved ones at home, not knowing whether they ever would be able to return to them or not, and thrown on the cold world to be baffled from pillow to post, but how they ever kept strong hearts and worked with determination to see in the South an institution of learning for generations of Negroes unborn. By special request Mrs. Moore related her experiences when she met Queen Victoria the first time. She tended of how the troupe wandered through the magnificent drawing roms and before they knew where they were they were standing in the presence of the Queen.
She said that Her Majesty was so commonplace-looking that they did not recognize her and that when it was made known to them that they were in the presence of Queen Victoria, that the real "Africani" in them came out and that they bursted forth with laughter with all their souls, but when they were commanded to sing "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot," that to their surprise they became equal to the occasion and sang in a way that soon made the Queen of England give loud praise.
Mrs. P. R. Burrus spoke entertainingly and also of the early days of Fisk University. She said when she went to enter school the very first meal she saw in the dining-room consisted of apples and bread and that she broke down in tears. The principal told the matron to carry that little girl out, that she was home sick. She impressed her hearers that she was really home sick then, but she said she had learned to love Fisk University and that she was a Fishite from head to foot and spoke in high praise of the institution and how high she held the same in her estimation. Mrs. Crosthwait related her experiences. She said three things made her remember the Jubilee singers. First, was the Chicago fire; second, the Jubilee singers themselves; and third, Mrs. Taylor did not go with the first troupe. Mrs. Taylor was then a dear friend of hers and she felt that if anybody went with the troupe it should have been her friend
One of the most interesting speakers of the evening was Miss Wells. She was associated with Fisk University as early as seventy-one and she remembered when one of the secretaries came here to see if the University should go on or be stopped. She told of how Prof. White declared that Fisk University must remain and when asked how would the funds be gotten to sustain the institution, he merely said: "I do not know, but Fisk must remain." It was shortly after that that he started on his first mission trip with the Jubilee singers and how well he accomplished his mission has been told by the results that now exist.
Prof. W. G. Waterman, who is one of the Committee of Management, at this time said that Fisk University was not to a degree experiencing similar conditions that existed in early days. He urged every student and every member of the Alumni present to do their full duty toward the institution. He said that the success of the institution depended on the united effort on the part of every student, every member of the Alumni and every member of the Trustee Board. He said he had no doubt that Fisk University would continue, but that if the work was accomplished that was desired it would require the united effort of all.
The meeting came to a close by singing the University song, which Dr. Morrow said expressed the true sentiment of the members of the Alumni and every lover of the institution. A banquet was given in the library building for the new teachers on Wednesday. The faculty and student body gave a picnic at Greenwood Park, one that was highly enjoyed by all.
INSTALLATION
The installation of Rev. B. F. Ferrell, pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Sunday, September 26, will long be remembered in the minds of the people. Many of the distinguished pastors of the various churches were present. The installation sermon was preached by Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D. Pastors, members and friends of the various churches are cordially invited to visit the Mt. Zion Baptist Church.
The annual meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board will be held in the office of the Secretary on Tuesday, October 12th. The out-of-town members are supposed to be present, at least some of them are expected.
SENATOR HOWSE
MAKING GOOD IMPRESSION IN GAMPAIGN
Election Thursday, October Fourteenth.
INDICATIONS POINT TO LIVELY CONTEST — BELIEVED MAJORITY OF ONE THOUSAND NEGRO VOTERS WILL SUPPORT POPULAR BROADWAY FURNITURE DEALER—HIS BUSINESS CAREER WELL KNOWN TO THE PEOPLE OF NASHVILLE—WHAT DAILY PAPERS THINK OF TWO CANDIDATES—EVERY NEGRO HOLDING REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE SHOULD PAY POLL TAX AND VOTE.
On next Thursday morning at nine o'clock the battle of Mayoralty honors will be on. Mr. Johns, the independent candidate, will endeavor to win over Senator Howse, who has been put up by the Democratic Primary. Mr. Johns says he will win, and no one can say he will not, but if calculations count for anything he will have to run a hard race to win out. The campaign is waxing warmer every day, and it is believed the full voting strength will be polled.
The Nashville American, in discussing the situation, makes the following timely remarks:
In the long and rambling speech delivered by the independent candidate for Mayor in front of the customhouse on Monday night there was not one word or line showing why he would make a better Mayor than his Democratic opponent. Instead of demonstrating a capacity, at least in a minor degree, for executive control, he devoted almost his entire speech to abuse of his opponent and to an attack upon the integrity of the Democrats who nominated that gentleman. He says the primary of Sept. 24 was "bogus," that there were illegal registrations; in a word, that the whole proceeding was fraudulent. Then he says the Democratic nominee, in his business affairs, sells non-union-made stoves and chairs and what not.
But nowhere and in no instance, does the independent aspirant make one single suggestion that looks to wiser or more economical government. Having no conception of the needs of the city, or of its indebtedness, or its sewerage, streets, water, police, fire or lighting system, he wisely passes them by and talks of "law enforcement," and what Howse has done or hasn't done.
Who cares what Howse has done in his business life so he has been honest? Who cares a baubee about his likes or dislikes? What have these to do with managing the affairs of the city? If the independent candidate has the better capacity for administration he should at least give some indication of it in his speeches. Abusing Howse and the Democratic party is no evidence of administrative capacity. It is merely an exhibition of the inordinate ambition of Charles D. Johns to get a job with a good salary attached.
There are over one thousand Negroes registered in the city and it is believed the majority of them will support Senator Howse. He is well known here, having conducted a large furniture store on' Broadway for years. He is a very popular business man. Great pressure is being brought to bear to get all the voters to the polls on Thursday, the 14th.
MOORE-CARTWRIGHT.
On Oct. 7th at 12:40 p.m. the nuptials of Mr. Fee Oscar Moore to Miss Addie Pearl Cartwright were solemnized at the Gale Street Baptist Church, Edenton, N. C. A splendid array of the prominent people in the state of North Carolina were present to witness the affair, as both the bride and groom are from among, the leading families of the state. The bride is the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. C. M. Cartwright, who have been living in Eden-
ton for a number of years, coming from one of the oldest families in the "Old North State." The groom is a prominent business man, who has made his way by his ability and tact.
A NEW ART STUDIO.
In order that Nashville might keep pace with its great reputation as an educational center she is compelled to make advances along all lines of literature and art. In keeping with this, sufficient pressure has been brought to bear on Mrs. Susie H. Bosley, of 1800 Church street, corner of Eighteenth avenue, North, to reopen her art studio. After much importing on the part of friends Mrs. Bosley, so it is learned definitely, has decided to reopen this studio next Tuesday, October 12th. Her plans are to form classes in different kinds of embroidery, painting, charcoal and crayon drawing, both from still life and copy. Mrs. Bosley will also give lessons in pastel and oil work. Her reputation as an artist and sculptor is already too well known to be enlarged upon. She has studied in some of the best schools in the country and no doubt is entertained that she will have a large class at her home. *
HAM AND JAPHETH AT THE POLE
In an issue of the Nashville Banner of last week appeared the following editorial:
Matthew Henson, the Negro who was with Commander Peary at the discovery of the pole has been for eighteen years in the Commander's employ. Peary, in his account of his voyage to the pole, mentions Hansen as one of the men who was with him when he made a record of the highest point North in 1906, and several times refers to him in terms of appreciation and confidence.
Henson's interview, given to an Associated Press correspondent at Battle Harbor, indicates that he is a man of good intelligence. He probably had more Arctic experience than any other man in the expedition except Peary and the Esquimos.
The tropical origin of the Negro race and its long habitation in sunny climes, it might be supposed, has rendered its members unfit to endure extreme cold, and that is the prevalent opinion concerning them. There seems to be little doubt of the Negroes' superior capacity for resisting the heat of the sun. A Negro at the pole seems as much out of his element as an Esquimo would at the equator, and it is one of the anomolies of life that one of the black race should have been among those who discovered the ice-covered roof of the world.
Henson's attachment to Commander Peary, and the good service done, is another instance of the faithful Negro servant often evidenced in the ante-civil war period of the South, and still more emphasized, perhaps, by those who followed their masters into the Confederate service. It is, unhappily, not a universal trait with the Negro, but sometimes very pronounced.
Had the editor stopped when he finished, it would have been well, and that would have been at the end of the second paragraph; but there seems to have been a disposition on his part to inject into his comment extraneous matter, something altogether foreign to Explorer Henson's magnificent achievement in connection with Explorer Peary. It is plain that the intent of the two last paragraphs was to modify or detract from Henson's work and worth. The words, "The tropical origin of the Negro race and its long habitation in sunny climes, it might be supposed, has rendered its members unfit to endure extreme cold," have nothing to do with what Henson really accomplished by his endurance journey over snow and ice fields to reach the North Pole, the coveted goal that had baffled for centuries the hardiest and most daring sons of men. Nor did his world-renowned feat have anything to do with demonstrating "another instance of the faithful Negro servant often evidenced in the antecival war period of the South," nor with "those who followed their masters into the Confederate service." His was a brave and hardy man's task, and as a brave man he accomplished it.
No man ascends above his ideals. Therefore, in going to the top of the earth, Henson, a courageous son of Ham, indomitably fought his way upward through difficulties and hardships, such as had defeated Franklin, Greeley and others, until he had as (Continued on Page 5.)

DESIRE THAT STATE NORMAL AND AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE BE LOCATED IN MAURY'S COUNTY SEAT — REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS ISSUE CALL TO WHICH THERE IS HEARTY RESPONSE BY THE PEOPLE—ROOMS OF YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION SCENE OF DEMONSTRATION—MAKE FLATTERING PROPOSAL TO THE STATE OF FICIALS.
Columbia, Tenn., Oct. 6. Specjal.—Last night the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association building were crowded by the leading citizens of the town to discuss the feasibility of making a bid for the State Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College that is to be located soon. The gathering was the result of a call issued October the first by several leading men. The call read as follows:
Columbia, October 1, 1909.
To the Colored People of Columbia, Maury County and State of Tennessee:
Your attention is called to the fact that on next Wednesday the white citizens of the community will participate in one of the greatest educational demonstrations that ever occurred in the city. We need not say, that on that day, October 6th, the Educational Committee of the State will come to Columbia for the purpose of inspecting a site for the location of the three white normal schools provided by the Legislature by the last General Assembly of the State. This same body also made provisions for a similar school for the Negroes of Tennessee and appropriated $17,000 for that purpose.
This circular, then comes to you as an appeal to the citizens, especially the voters of Columbia, the ministers, physicians, and all other public-spirited persons of the community to awaken at once to the great necessity of making some concerted effort to hold similar demonstration for and in behalf of the Negroes of Columbia and Maury County. The movement at this time is imperative, since the demonstration should occur in October, for almost immediately after the visitation of the committee to Columbia in favor of the Normal School for the white people, the body will make its tour for the inspection of location for a Negro Normal School. Only one idea should dominate every Negro in Columbia, and that is, "A Negro Normal School for the Negroes of Tennessee located in Maury County." To this most important feature then is your attention directed, for, at no time in the history of the Negro in this city and county has a greater issue been presented.
This circular will inform all concerned that a mass-meeting of the colored people of Columbia is hereby called to meet in the rooms of the Y. M. C. A., on Tuesday night next, October 5th, where and when ways and means will be devised for carrying out, in the most substantial manner, plans looking to a great educational rally, which will place the Negro on record as being highly appreciative of the law recently passed by the state Legislature, and of taking such other steps as will result in locating the Normal School in Columbia as the most desirable and fitting place in the State of Tennessee. For the above reasons and other considerations, you are urged to lay aside your private affairs and every thinking citizen attend the mass-meeting as called. Yours for the public welfare: T. W. Stevens, M. D., J. C. Schofner, D. D. S., Rev. Wm. Porter, Rev. C. J. Maclin, C. O. Hunter, M. D., Rev. J. S. Gillmore, Rev. J. B. Spratlin and Faculty of Columbia Public (Continued on Page 5.)

EXCERPTS FROM AN ADDRESS
DELIVERED BY BISHOP EVANS
TYREE AT THE STATE
FAIR.
Master of Ceremonies, Ladies and
Gentlemen:
I know that you are too happy to lis-
ten to a speech, at least, the one which
1 shall give you this afternoon, but
it has been thought necessary and
advisable to add speech-making, so as
to put especial stress on the signifi-
cance of this enterprise, but which
even the language cannot portray.
This kind of an undertaking is a high
mark of civilization and it signifies
that we are getting down to real civi-
lization, that we are not only here,
but here to stay and that we are be-
sinning to think along all lines which
tend toward our uplift as a race of
veople, We are showing our distinc-
tion from that of alf other people and
are making ourselves felt in all the
world, although we are but a simple
member of it. This enterprise is onc
that will bring great credit to the
race. It shows that we are progress-
ing along material lines. I have
heard that it has been said that it
will make Dr. Taylor rich. Well I
hope it will and I would be glad, as
far as I am concerned, if he was a
millionaire. It would add that much
to us as a race of people. We have
as muh right to have millionaires as
any other race. Why not? I think
that some of this world’s goods should
he enjoyed while living .on this earth.
MONEY WELL SPENT.
But the money we spend here is
well spent; we can well afford to think
less of economy here. It means the
imaterial uplift of the race and the
beauty of our homes within. It will
‘fit us for better citizenship in every
Way ‘
_ We must all encourage such an en-
terprise as this, that which means so
much-to us, to our homes and to the
development of the race in all occupa:
tions and professions, encourage it
with our money and with our pres-
ence.
THE WOMAN'S DEPARTMENT,
The woman's department is a credit
to the woman of any race and nothing
Jess than genuine inspiration can
‘come to those homes where 1s dis:
‘Played the handiwork of the woman
in that department. The right kind
of woman in the home fs a fortune
and the wrong kind is the devil, him:
self. The man who does not love a
beautiful woman or a fast horse is
lacking in taste, Women and horses
go together. What woman is it who
=== DOLLS ==
THE NATIONAL NEGRO DOLL 60.
‘We respectfully wish to announce to our many patrons through=
out the United States, Canada, West Indies, South America and
Mexico, that we will be prepared to furnish them with NEGRO
DOLLS from now on. The National Negro Doll Company has scor-
ed a decided success. This venture has met the approval of all
tace loving people. We succeeded in offering for the first time
“NEGRO DOLLS FOR ee
4 5
NEGRO CHILDREN” fs
thereby instilling into the minds
of the rising generation real race
pride. We ship throughout the
United Stated to all the leading
cities Negro Dolls, and wish to
announce that any business firm,
located anywhere in the United
States, desiring to handle our dolls
during the ensuing year should
send their orders to the NATION-
AL NEGRO DOLL COMPANY
not later than JUNE fst., 1909 as
we are preparing to make exten-
sive preparations for the dolls to be
sold thisyear. ut ey a

does not love to ride behind a fast
and beautiful horse? Throw on the
canvas of beauty: the beautiful wom-
an, the horse, the farm, the poul-
try, the horticulture.
NEGRO BEGINNING TO THINK,
We are beginning to think just like
other people are thinking and we will
be able to do just like other people
are doing, that is, all the higher
things. That which has brought the
other races to higher development and
has caused them to be recognized as
a great nation, will also do the same
for our people and the strides which
we are making in that direction shows
itself in the Tennessee Colored Fair
Association. Encourage the children.
Let them imagine great things which
we are going to do and are doing. It
will give them both inspiration and
aspiration,
TRIBUTE TO REY. PRESTON TAYLOR.
Iwant tohere say a word concern-
ing Dr. Taylor. It was through his
persistent efforts and indomitable will
power largely that this enterprise has
met with success and we ought to en-
courage him in every way possible
and all the rest who are interested
in this undertaking. They all deserve
the highest praise and encouragement
from every race-loving Negro.
PRAISES MEMBERS OF PYTHIAN BAND.
I would like, also, to say something
by way of encouraging the members
of this band. You young men are also
playing your part in the development
of the race and are a credit to it and
you young men who can make music
like that need encouragement; play
on,
We are all here; the doctors, the
preachers, farmers, lawyers, mechan
ics, merchants and all of us are proud
to be-here and the splendid showing
made here in all lines is a credit tc
any people and deserves instinted
praise and should receive the encour
‘agement of all. I heartily congratu
late you the Tennessee Colored Fait
Association and all who had any par
in this, such an undertaking as this;
you should spread what you are doing
here for the Negro race; let the world
know what you are doing,
I thank you.

CARD OF THANKS
Miss Hattie L. Scott, of 22 North Hill street, wishes to thank her many friends who so kindly assisted her in the prize contest given by the pastor of Bethel A. M, E. Church. The prize was $10 in gold or a scholarship in any of the departments of Walden University. Miss Scott won the prize and will take a course in music at Walden University.
CLUB ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. Andrew Cheatham was the hostess of a very pleasant meeting of the Phyllis Wheatley Club Thursday evening, September 30, at her home, on Sixth avenue, South. The guests of the club was Mrs. G. A. Shelton, of Chicago, a former resident of Nashville. Mrs. Edward Boyd, of Cincinnati, made some remarks, also Rev. W. Sampson Brooks addressed the club. He admonished each member to cling to the club motto, "Lift as we climb." Other guests were Mrs. G. L. Washington and Mrs. C. Phillips. Ices were served abundantly. The next meeting will be with Mrs. J. H. Hale, of 639 Wetmore street.
"THE OULD DEESTRICK SKULE."
Rehearsals for "The Ould Deestrick Skule," a humorous play rendered with such overwhelming success last year, have begun at the First Baptist Church, Rev. W. S. Ellington, pastor, for the repetition of the play. The management has enlarged the number of scholars and engaged a new "Schoolmaster" 'in the person of Hon. R. L. Mayfield. Several new features have been added, which necessitate the use of the auditorium of the church instead of the basement, as before. Judging from the interest already manifested the future rendition which will take place the latter part of this month, will be even a greater success than the former.

WEDDINGS.
Goodall-White.
Nashville was surprised and delighted at the receipt of invitations this week announcing the coming wedding of Miss Violet Claretta White, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John White, Sr., of Memphis, Tenn., to Rev. T. J. Goodall, Jr., of Clarkksville. The wedding is to take place at 12 o'clock m. at the residence of the bride, 862 S. Lauderdale street, Memphis, on Tuesday, October 19.

She comes from well-known parents and is said to be a member of one of the leading Baptist churches, while the groom is practically a Nashville product. Rev. Goodall has been in the ministry only little over five years, has been a student in the city and pastored the First Baptist Church, of East Nashville. He is now pastoring the Fifth Ward Baptist Church, of Clarksville, Tenn. Rev. Goodall is also a member of the National Baptist Publishing Board and stands high in the denomination's affairs. The invitations state that there will be a reception at the Fifth Ward Baptist Church, Main street Clarksville, Tenn., from 8:30 p. m. to 11:30, on Tuesday night, October 19 as the couple will be at home after October 20, Poston street, Clarksville.

DIED IN COLORADO.
On Saturday of last week a telegram was received by Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the Publishing Board, from B. Bisipe, the Deputy Coroner of Trinidad, Colo., announcing the death of one W. J. Frison, who, it is claimed, had sufficient identification on him to lead them to believe that he was from Nashville, Tenn. No cause is ascribed for his death. The telegram simply asked Dr. Boyd to notify the deceased's father so that instructions could be given as to the disposition of the remains. Dr. Boyd made diligent inquiries of three or four families of Friersons in Nashville, but could get no information as to the young man's connections. It is thought that evidently there was a mistake about the young man's belonging to parents living in Nashville. But it was not stopped here, inquiry was sent down to Columbia, where other Friersons live, but there was no response. No other message has come from the Coroner of Trinidad, so it is not known what was done with the remains.
IN HONOR OF MRS. SHAW.
On Thursday evening of last week Mrs. R. H. Boyd entertained at dinner in honor of Mrs. Shaw, of Austin, Texas. Mesdames Boyd and Shaw were old friends in Texas, Mrs. Boyd having lived at San Antonio, just eighty-four miles west of Austin. Mrs. Shaw has been out of Texas, however, for the past three years, visiting first Mrs. Keeling, her daughter, who was living in Philadelphia, and Mrs. Comfort, another daughter, living in Boston. At the dinner were Mrs. Shaw, Mrs. Keeling, Rev. and Mrs. W. S. Ellington, Rev. C. H. Clark, Mr. and Mrs. J. B'aine Boyd, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Napier, Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Boyd, Misses Jillian and Alberta Badger, Rev. Wm. Beckham, Prof. J. D. Crenshaw and Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd. Mrs. Philip Douglass, of Jackson street, was caterer for the dinner.
DELEGATES TO EDINBURGH,
SCOTLAND.
There is hardly a national meeting of any kind whether religious, political or of a business nature, that the Nashville people do not attend, and on all occasions they receive high honors, in being sent forth to represent the race, the state and the nation. At the recent meeting of the National Baptist Convention, at Columbus, this became apparent when two Nashville men were selected to represent the great family of Negro Baptists at an international, religious gathering to be held in Edinburgh, Scotland, early in 1910. According to the vote of the convention it was decided that a commission, representing the great Negro Baptist family, he appointed to attend the Scotland meeting. The task of appointing was left in the hands of the President of the Convention, Rev. E. C. Morris, who had before him possibly 2,500 representative religious workers from whom to select a given number of men. Nashville succeeded in getting two in the persons of Drs. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, and R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the Publishing, Board, both having represented the denomination at other great meetings. Dr. Boyd represented the Convention at the World's Baptist Alliance in London, while Drs. C. H. Clark and W. S. Ellington went to Toronto, Canada, in 1907 to meet an international gathering of Sunday school workers held there. Drs Clark and Boyd both expect to attend the Edinburgh meeting, thus giving Nashville international recognition at a meeting that will go down as one of the greatest ever held in the world.
DELIGHTFUL LUNCHEON
A delightful luncheon was served Sunday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Long, of 1995 Heffernan street, in honor of Mrs. Will Dobson, of Thompson Station, Tenn. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. William Long, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Long, Miss I. Dener Long, Mr. Albert Fitzgerald and Mr. C. C. Roland.

LADIES E. S. OF ST. JOHN.
Ladies E. S. of St. John A. M. E. Church last monthly meeting was held at the residence of Mrs. Kate Thompson, Quarry street. After the regular routine of business, refreshments were served to a large number of E. S. members and visitors according. Those present were Dr. F. A. and Mrs. Stewart, F. A., Jr., and little Annie L. Stewart and Reba Watson, of the First Baptist Church. The Society was indeed glad to greet the President, Madam E. C. Coffey, who has been spending the summer with her cousin, Miss Beatrice Stewart, of Mason, Teen. We regret very much that the President is to leave us again very soon. The menu consisted of a salad course and ices.

FISK JUBILEE DAY.
On Wednesday of this week the faculty, students and members of the alumni of Fisk University living in this city celebrated the thirty-eighth anniversary of the departure of the first troupe of singers that were sent out to raise money to erect a building to comfortably house the students that were attending that institution at that time. The meeting was interesting in many ways, and especially so were the experiences related by some of the members of that troupe. It gave the audience an idea of what it cost to establish the University.
A very significant fact that was brought out, and one that should be emphasized is that the money with which to erect the first building on the present site, which was historic Jubilee Hall, was raised by this troupe. This building will be a monument to the famous singers as long as it stands, and the Negroes all over this country ought to be made well acquainted with the history of the same. They would, if they knew of its history, respond more readily to the needs of the University in these latter days, and would teach their children to do so.
It is a long step from the old building that was occupied by the school in 1871 to the magnificent brick buildings that make up the University now. It cost those many sacrifices who labored in the early days of the institution, and the burden is no lighter now than it was then; the conditions are very similar. The Negroes themselves had to put Fisk on a solid footing, and they will have to work unitedly to keep it up to its present high standing.
HOWSE THE MAN.
After a careful study of the two candidates that are before the people of this city for the position of Mayor, we are thoroughly convinced that Senator Hilary E. Howse is the man for the place. The office of Mayor of a city is a responsible position. It is imperative that the man filling such a high place should be one of broad experience. Nashville is a great city. Conditions are constantly undergoing changes, and the man who sits in the Mayor's chair must be able to meet these conditions as they arise.
Nashylle needs a man as chief exe-
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1909
cutive who has had a thorough business training. No one will question Senator Howse's capacity along that line. He has made his own business a success which is the best guarantee we have that he can successfully conduct the affairs of the city. He will, if elected, accept the position at a great sacrifice, and can therefore have no motive other than a desire to see Nashville rank with the leading cities of the South. We believe the voters of this city will act wisely to casu their vote for Senator Hilary E. Howse for Mayor on Thursday, October 14.
EXHIBITS LACKING.
At the Murfreesboro Fair last week there was one feature that attracted attention by its emptiness and that was the exhibit hall. It was almost as empty as "Towser's Dog House." Towser was dead and buried and no member of the canine family essayed to occupy his house. The exhibit hall at the Murfreesboro Fair presented a sorry appearance. Two or three quilts, a few white rats, a lady selling soda water and two babies was all to be seen in the hall.
A Fair is a place to show what is being produced. It is where we go to get an idea of the progress being made by our neighbors. We compare results and study how to accomplish greater things. The entertainment feature is very necessary to relieve the monotony, but the prime object should be to stimulate the people to make greater strides along material lines. Tennessee is on trial. The country is looking this way. The natural resources of this commonwealth are well-known to all, and it is a matter for us to decide whether we will develop them and enjoy the fruits therefrom or whether we will sit idly by and allow the foreigner to come in and develop them and reap the harvest. It goes without saying that the laborer will reap the harvest.
PEARODY COLLEGE.
The settlement of the Peabody College controversy has advanced another step, but the horizon is not yet entirely clear of turbulent features. The county court is playing the star role now and threatens to withhold the bonds deposited in a local bank for the Peabody College.
We have not been able to learn just how all of this fund was taken from the Negroes, but it seems that the Negroes are not much concerned about it. It is a pity that the leading men and women show so little concern about the education of the youth. Tennessee will never be what it ought to until the people have a good average education. We need every dollar we can get for educational purposes, but we cannot hope to get it without seeking it. We must show an interest in the matter.
It was originally intended that the Peabody Fund go to train teachers for all the people in the South, but the original purpose seems to have been lost sight of. It behooves the Negroes of the South to get their eyes open to these facts.
When the Negroes of the United States learned the glad fact that they were free and could go about their own business as other men, thousands of them set out to do something for themselves. Many of them did well, but a sad feature of it is too few of the sons are doing as well as the fathers did. We should begin now to rectify that fault. Every boy ought to be taught to do the kind of work his father does, and let him decide after he is grown whether he will continue to do that kind of work.
Negroes in this section of the country are making white men seek their chicken coops these days. They have turned the joke to a bright poultry prospect.
The melancholy days have come to all those who forgot to order winter coal, and they will likely remain until Spring.
Again fortune has been kind to Stanley Ketcnel. Johnson will not get a chance to lick him until the 16th.

The Negro need not necessarily lose any more sleep over politics until he betters his material condition. Wealth and intelligence are going to control the destinies of this country, because it is right. What the race wants to do is to spend itself in an industrious effort to build upon wealth and character. Politics can not add these qualities, but these qualities can and will bring about political recognition. Atlanta Independent.
Several days ago at St. Petersburg, Fla., a dog catcher went into the home of a respectable colored family and fought the housewife, and her two daughters because they refused to let him take their dog from their own premises. In the meantime the man of the house appeared on the scene and inquired into the affair, as only a few men would have done (till after they had uncoupled the heathen's neck for intruding and assaulting the women of the house) but the dog-catcher drew his revolver and made an attempt to shoot. The colored man used good judgment by having the dog catcher arrested. The magistrate turned him free without a fine or cost, saying that it was the first offense. Florida Standard.

Keep Away From the Police Stations.
Would it not be just as well if those of our race who presist in being the performers at the matinees held every Sunday morning in the Western and Northwestern Police Stations, would hold up a little and let the hard-working officials of the Police Department and the Department of Justice have a little breathing spell? At least until the election is over. It will no doubt be a great pleasure to the Police Justices who set in these two stations to give the Negroes who come before them 30 and 60 days in jail, and thus deprive them of the privilege of voting on the second day of November, because both of them have been given their places by the powers-that-be, and to keep them they must get rid of the Negro. At least that is what they profess to believe.

But the Niagara movement men can't resist the temptation to be dramatic. They say: "That black men are inherently inferior to white men is a widespread lie, which science flatly contradicts, and the attempt to submerge the colored race is one with world-old effort of the wily to exploit the weak. We must therefore make common cause with the oppressed and downtrodden of all races and peoples, with our kindred of South Africa and West Indies, with our fellows in Mexico, India and Russia, and with the cause of working classes everywhere." A widespread fable, prevarication, falsehood, untruth, anything rather than that cruel expression, "A widespread lie;" it takes Dubois to say the picturesque.—The Freeman.
Peary, Henson and Cook.
In the fight now opening for the settlement of the controversy as to whether Dr. Cook did or did not reach the pole, the part which Matthew Henson is playing is as creditable to the black man as it is important to the contenders. The credence with which Peary's colored companion's words are accepted against the reported words of Cook's Eskimo companions is significant. In fact, it seems as inasmuch as Henson declares these companions admitted to him time and again that Dr. Cook did not leave the land line, his testimony will be relied on very largely to refute Cook's unsupported claim.
Henson's part in the Peary expedition looms up ever larger. Not only was he the most experienced and hardy member on the expedition aside from the commander himself, but in his popularity with the Eskimo and his knowledge of the language of the Etah tribe, Henson was probably not inferior to his chief. His knowledge of Arctic conditions, especially relative to land and sea ice travel, will probably be used as he himself intimates, to disprove Cook's ability to travel with two inexperienced boys over the sea of ice.
In short, if Peary's claim to be the real discoverer of the pole is established, it will be very largely through his devoted adherent and companion. Whether or not that claim be established, Peary's journey to the pole will be of the greatest scientific value, and here again the help of Matthew

Farthest South—The Dash for the Pole.
(McClure's Magazine for October.) Day by day the summit of Erebus heralded more and more distinctly the return of the sun, which was below the horizon for a total period of one hundred and twenty days. The end of the long night was near, and when the darkness was giving way to a sort of dim twilight, we began to make preparations for the sledging expeditions.
During the winter, of course, we had been giving the best attention possible to our ponies and dogs. We were a very small community, and the extent and success of our work was dependent as much on the condition of the animals that were to draw the sledges as on the fitness of the men themselves. The first step was to find out what weight the ponies were actually capable of pulling, and to this end the sledges were loaded with known weights, and the ponies exercised up and down a measured two miles on the sea-ice. Every day, except when the blizzards stopped us, they were taken out, and they were soon in good, hard condition.
We arrived at the conclusion that the best results would be secured if 650 pounds per pony were made the maximum weight to be carried on the sledges, this weight including the weight of the sledges themselves, which I have already mentioned was about 60 pounds each. Some alterations were made in the motor-car in order to reduce its weight, all superfluous gear being taken off; and its performances on the sea-ice were so satisfactory that we had high hopes for the future. Before testing the car on the Barrier surface, however, I decided to make a reconnaissance toward the interior, in order to see what the actual conditions were under the low temperature that would prevail.
On August 12th, about ten days before the sun returned to us, I started off with Professor David and Armytage on a journey south. We experienced low temperature and one heavy blizzard. The thermometer often recorded from 50 to 56 degrees below zero, and the discomfort of sledging in the semi-darkness made us appreciate the warmth and light of our little hut when we returned on August 19th.
The surface of the Barrier seemed to me to be impracticable for the moto-car, owing to the tremendously heavy snowfall, which was much greater than on the Discovery expedition, but I decided to give the machine a trial at a later date.
When we three got back from that sledging expedition, the eyes of the members of the expedition who had never sledged opened wide at the appetites we had developed. Porridge, bread and butter, and large quantities of seal stake disappeared with astonishing rapidity, and after that we were inclined to lapse into a condition of somnolence.—By Lieutenant Shackleton.

To the Nashville Globe:
Once in a while, as we journey along life's highway, there come to us some opportunities in which we can be of service to others by our developing and making the best possible use of those opportunities. If we make fitting preparation to do our individual work in the great providential scheme of things to the best of our native and acquired ability, and if we cheerfully and assiduously apply ourselves to the performance of life's tasks, then we will have the satisfaction of knowing that we have contributed something by our humble though faithful efforts to the sum total of human happiness.
Once in a while, in good faith and with an honest intention of profiting thereby, we should rummage through the dust-covered records of a receding, vanishing past and take therefrom such lessons as our blunders and mistakes, wittingly or unwittingly made, should have taught us. We may sometimes have a desire to blot out or blank the past, but therein we are at error, for it is our best guide and teacher for the future. If we wisely appropriate the lessons it taught, we will be enabled to avoid in our passage up through life a repetition of those things which only too willingly we would close our memories against.
Once in a while our good angel flits along our pathway holding aloft the torch of enlightenment whereby we are given a chance to see the beautiful vistas which lie before and around us. We only behold the beauties of these magnificent scenes when our minds are perceptive and open to the reception of their refining influences. Such occasions are the oases, here and there in the Saharas or dead wastes of life, that all of us welcome with a gladsomeness as genuine as the first joys of the springtime of childhood. This is as it should be.
Once in a while we all feel the importance of our real mission in the scheme of things, and it is then that the mystic influences of that Life beyond life are playing in and around us for our good, and if we follow their gentle leading in the performance of our service to ourselves and our fellowmen, we shall leave the world brighter, happier and better for having lived in it.

DR. PIUS OPENS HEADQUARTERS.
There is no more speculation about the opening of the office of the Superintendent of the Teacher-Training-Service that was endorsed some time ago by the National Baptist Convention. Rev. N. H. Pius, D. D., of Springfield, Ohio, who was selected to fill the position and begin the work and who was to have been in Nashville about the 25th of September, arrived just five days late and on October 1st the office of the superintendent of this new missionary movement, that is to be such a factor in instructing Sunday-school teachers in the simplicity, worth and real Christian side of the Bible teaching, was thrown open and actual work begun. It is evident from the activity already shown in this new department of the great Baptist family that it will be a success. Dr. Plus has been busy preparing schedules, selecting books and outlining plans to further prosecute the work. For the past week he has spent overtime in the office. Notwithstanding he has had the assistance of Drs. E'lington, Beckham and Boyd, he has not yet been

able to thoroughly complete all the detail work incident to the beginning of the first class of his first itinerary. As usual, Nashville is to be favored by having the distinction of seeing the first real class conducted in this new Teacher-Training Service. The service consists of four branches, namely: primary, elementary, preparatory and normal. "Just how many books will be necessary to complete this course is yet to be determined by the superintendent and the Home Board," said Dr. Pius to an inquiry about the work. The office of this new superintendent is located on the second floor of the two-story book and editorial building at 521 Second avenue, North. As far as could be learned he will make a statement next week inviting the Sunday-school teachers of the forty-odd Baptist churches of Nashville to form classes, thereby beginning the real teaching work at the earliest possible date.

cended to the level of his ideal, had reached the Mecca of his ambition. The task that he had cut out for himself was great, but his faith was equal to it, and he succeeded.
There is no conceivable way of getting Peary to the Pole without acknowledging the presence of Henson there. This son of the Negro people looms upon the world's horizon as one of the only three civilized men who lay claim to having visited the roof or gable end of this old globe. He is an intelligent man and took care of himself. He has, it is said, his own data, diary notes and observations. This proves that he was wide-awake and alive to all that transpired in that memorable quest for the Pole. There is no way of figuring a "member of the Negro race" out of having his share of the honor of conquering the grim and eternal winter that encircles the Pole.
There is no place on all this mundane sphere where a member of any other race can go that a member of Henson's race can not put his foot as far as he who goes farthest. And now, let the shout go up in one grand volume until it reaches from ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the Mex-

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.

DOR. ROMAN IN GEORGIA.
Dr. C. V. Roman, the popular spe-

ta, Ga, on the 28th of September.
He went upon specia invitation to de-
‘liver an address to the nurses of the
Lamar Hospital and ‘Training School.
'The Augusta Chronicle, a white daily
|had the following to say about the
mecting and the address particularly:
NECKO NURSES WERE GIVEN. DIrLomas.
The inauguration of the public
graduation exercises for the colored
nurses of the Lamar Hospital and
Training School, which was held last
uight at McGregor hall, was attended
with the greatest success, and reflects
great credit upon Miss Mittie White,
the superintendent and upon all who. as:
sisted her in making preparations for
the occasion. s
The hall was decorated very taste
fully with immense ferns, palms and
cut flowers, the stage being banked
with greons and the program was in
teresting from beginning to end.
The welcome address was delivered
by Mary Benning. It was well pre
pared and very well delivered.
Dr, C, V. Roman, a colored physi
cian, who has the title of Ph. D., as
well as M. D., delivered an address
that would have done credit to any
Jorator, It was far above the average
'|address of such character in thought
and was remarkably well written. I
was delivered in an easy, interesting
manner; and held the undivided at
‘| tention of all the white people in thi
jfudience, ‘The depth of thought
breadth of learning, and the scope o!
acquaintance with literature and phil
‘| osophy astonished the audience; an
[lis unassuming delivery and recep
tion of the praise that was accordec
him by the white people who hear«
him speak, gave a new impetus t
: considerative thought about — th
amount of good that Negroes of hi
’|stamp can and may accomplish fo
their race. The subject of his addres
was “Woman's Work,” and though thi
;| subject is a hackneyed one, he gav
{| interest in his development of it; an
‘Jifthe Negroes who heard him graspe
"|tis meaning and follow his advic
®| it will do much for their personal an
| tacial_ development.
1| Dr. 'T. H. Oertel presented the d
plomas to the four nurses who con
“|vrise the class, Mary Benning, Eliz
’! Batey, Cora Bass and Lizzie Hill, r
| ceiving them. Dr. Oertel made a shor
address in which he complimente
©) Mittie White and expressed his prais
®land approval of the audience whic!
{attended the exercises. His commer
y{dation was very encouraging an
showed that he really has at heart th
development and advancement of th
hospital.
t|_ The superintendent's report of th
| work done at the hospital was exce
|lent, showing that out of 300 patien'
«.| received into the hospital only 18 hs
«| tied, while 200 had been cured, an
j, | the remaining number partially cun
ve | ot bettered.
Lucy Laney presented the four cla
,x {ins to the nurses—the pins being tl
‘)donation of Mayor Wm. M. Dunba
yy | Who. was to have presented them. H
‘a absence at the state reunion, howeve

William Walton's orchestra play:
| Very creditable musical program.
HEAD WAITERS’ CONTEST.
By popular vote the verdict ren-
dered at the First Baptist Church,
on Spruce street, Monday night in the
presence of the largest congregation
that ever attendd that church for an
entertainment of any kind, says that
Mr. William Young, who for quite a
number of years has been head wait-
er at the Duncan Hotel, is the most
Popular head waiter in the great city
of Nashville, notwithstanding there
are scores of hotels and cafes in this
city. There were five prominent can-
didates in the field for the honors and
the fact that Mr. William Young was
declared the most popular does not
describe the warm contest that was
waged for more than thirty days as
the five contestants fought every inch
of the ground. The results of the
contest were not known or could
‘not be judged until the very last vote
was counted, and yet Mr, Young’s ma-
jority was nearly 200 over the nearest
leader, who was Mr. Birdsong, head
waiter of the Tulane Hotel. Friends
of the other head waiters were there
and thus the entire city was interest-
in the outcome of the contest.
After a fair and impartial canvass
of the votes the first prize was award-
ed to Mr. Wm. Young, who raised
$100.10, the second to Mr, E. W, Bird-
song, who raised $84.68, and the third
to Mr..Wash Cannon, who raised
$22.75. Mr. Robt. Martin raised. $18,
Mr. Roy Irvin $1.10,
Mr. Alex Goodwine, captain of club
No, 13, and Miss Novella Matthews,
his assistant, were the recipients of
many hearty congratulations for the
success of the contest, .
In the basement of the church re-
fresbments were served to the delight
of the large audience and many
friends. Dr, Kilington announced that
the financial returns were something
over $200, surpassing any previous
effort.for the church along this line.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1909.
SURPRISE PARTY.
GUESTS HONORED.
SPORT.
GREAT EVENTS EMINENT IN PU-
GILISTIC WORLD.
This month should be fraught with great doings in pugilism. Next week is set the battle between Ketchel and Champion Jack Johnson for the heavyweight title; when that is over, providing that the big Negro wins, we may hope to see some negotiations between Johnson and Jeffries which will bring about a meeting between the two.
As the date for the Ketchel-Johnson mill has approached the Negro has become a stronger and stronger favorite. The chances are that when he enters the ring he will be the prohibitive choice in the betting.
Ketchel has many friends, who believe, or profess to believe, that their man can win from Johnson. It is impossible for me to see where the Michigan lad has a lookin. Everything is against him. In no respect has he any advantage over Johnson, and the latter ought to win easily enough.
The failure of the New York promoters to pull off the bout scheduled between Ketchel and Sam Langford brought a number of nasty stories in its wake. It was said that the reason the bout was prevented was because a clique of gamblers who had bet heavily on the go came to the conclusion that they were in bad and did not wish the fight to take place, as they feared they would lose what had looked to them like a lot of easy money.
How true this story is I do not know. One thing is certain, however, and that is that there was something strange in the way the fight was declared off at the last minute.
It never looked to me like a cinch that Ketchel can whip Langford. Ketchel is not a great fighter in the sense the term is usually applied to men of the ring. There is no question of his bulldog courage; nor is there any question of his confidence in himself. These are great attributes for a fighter, of course, but something more is necessary.
Ketchel's confidence in himself is so great that he is often spoken of as being conceited. It is probably true that he believes that he can defeat any man in the world. But this belief alone does not make him able to do the trick.
With Ketchel out of the way, taking it for granted that Johnson will defeat him, the Jeffries match will be in order. The big Californian has stirred himself out of his retreat at Carlsbad. He went over to Paris for a few days and while there announced that he really is anxious to meet Johnson.
By the way, the story is that Jeffries did not go to Carlsbad for the baths at all, but went there to have quiet while he underwent an operation on his nose. It seems that there was a growth in his nose which interfered with his breathing and he wished to have this cut out before he began real training for a bout with Johnson.
There has been so much talk and wrangling over a possible match between Jeffries and Johnson that I am pretty skeptical concerning the chances that such a match ever takes place. There are plenty of reasons, which any one can see, why Jeffries is not anxious to fight again. There is no reason that he should, if he does not wish to do so, but there is no satisfactory reason why he should tell the public that he intends to fight if in reality he has no intention of doing so.
Jeffries has gained nothing in popularity by his dilatory tactics in carrying on negotiations with Johnson. The latter, on the other hand, has made great strides forward in popular estimation. He has shown that he is anxious to fight; that he is ready to defend his claim to the title, and that, moreover, he is ready to fight any man who thinks he has a chance to win.
Johnson is a great fighter—one of the greatest of the age. It is nearly time this was generally understood. When he won the championship from Tommy Burns there was a disposition to sneer at Johnson and his claims. It is true that the title won from Burns was not so good a title as such things generally are in the heavyweight realm. But that was not Johnson's fault. He defeated Burns and won whatever title the latter held. Moreover, he is ready to fight the real heavyweight champion.
So far as Ketchel's claims are concerned they look rather puerile. He is the sort of fighter that seems made to order for a man like Johnson. The latter should make a veritable chopping block of the middleweight champion.
Unless Ketchel shows a remarkable change in his methods over his last fight he will rush Johnson with the idea of annihilating the black. That rush will be fatal to Ketchel. Every time he comes into close quarters, as he must inevitably do if he fights as he usually does, Johnson will punish

him terribly with that famous right uppercut of his.
Unless I am greatly mistaken, the fight will be merely a succession of rushes on the part of Ketchel—in every one of which he will suffer—until he has worn himself out, when Johnson will cut him to pieces at leisure.—By Bill Curtis in Chicago Tribune.
JOHNSON A HARD OPPONENT.
Has Lead Over Michigan Pug Any Way It is Figured.
New York, Oct. 2.—Fight fans are taking a lot of interest in the coming mill between Jack Johnson, who is taking care of the world's championship honors, and Stanley Ketchel, who swings onto the middleweight premiership, at Colma on Oct. 12.
Ketchel is getting into fine shape according to those who have seen him doing "stunts" lately.
His added weight gave additional impetus to his already terrific hitting power, and there are some good judges who venture the opinion that he will give the colored giant a great battle. They figure that he will be able to get to Johnson's body, which they consider his weakest spot, and worry him, with a fair chance of getting his famous shift below to "Jack's" jaw as a finishing touch.
KETCHEL HAS A HARD ROW.
It is easy enough for these folks to theorize in this manner, with Ketchel before them and working out in a gymnasium with a friendly sparring partner. It will be an altogether different proposition when Stanley faces the towering black Hercules in a real fight. He will confront in Johnson one of the best specimens of physical manhood now before the sporting public, and a man who has all the essentials of a modern champion with the possible exception of the shifty footwork which characterized the work of such champions as Corbett and Fitzsimmons. Johnson will be fully thirty-five pounds heavier than Ketchel and he

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE. will have a decided margin in height and reach. In addition to these advantages he has great speed and is a finished boxer. He is an artist at waiting and beating an opponent to the punch. This he demonstrated in his fight with Tommy Burns, who, by the way, is of the same aggressive style as Ketchel. Johnson just permitted Tommy to do all the leading and contented himself with delivering stunting counter blows as Burns rushed in.
Ketchel has always been weak on defense. In his fights with "Billy" Papke he went in with head down, standing toe to toe, and slugged from start to finish. Confident of his hitting powers, he was satisfied to take his opponent's blows in order to get an opening for some of his own. But the question here arises, can Ketchel afford to make this sort of a fight with a man so much his superior in weight, strength and skill as Johnson is known to be?
COLORED MAN IS CLEVER TOO
Johnson hit Burns sufficiently hard to render him so weak and groggy that it became necessary to stop the fight in order to save Tommy from a cold knockout. He could not have lasted another round, the correspondents stated at the time.
The answer is that Johnson will catch Stanley coming in and beat him in decisive fashion if he essays any such tactics. If, on the other hand, Ketchel stands off and tries to outbox the black fellow, he will be made a fool of and chopped to ribbons. Johnson is likely to win, no matter how one figures it, for it goes without saying that a good little man cannot beat a good big man.
Even if Ketchel was as skillful a boxer as Joinson, he would still be greatly handicapped. He will doubtless give a good account of himself, for he is a game arr aggressive fighter, with plenty of youthful vigor and any amount of confidence, but there can be but one ending to the battle, barring accident. Johnson will stop him within the limit.
