THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. IV. NEW BOARD National Baptist Union Changes Hands. RECENT ACTION OF NATIONAL CONVENTION PLACES PUBLICATION IN CHARGE OF SEPARATE MANAGEMENT — NEW BOARD MET IN THIS CITY THIS WEEK—PAPER WILL BE PRINTED BY CLARION PRINTING COMPANY. Another publishing board, authorized by the recent session of the National Baptist Convention with a president, secretary, treasurer and all other officers constituting a regularly organized board, becoming subordinate to the great Baptist family, is now in existence in this city, the capital of Tennessee, according to the best-informed of the Baptists. The purpose of forming this board, as stated by Rev. A. J. Stokes, D. D., of Montgomery, Ala., while in the city Tuesday, is to promote, publish and circulate the National Baptist Union, a religious paper that heretofore, at least for seven years, was published under the auspices of the three boards of their convention, but which for the past twelve months, according to Dr. Boyd, of the Publishing Board, was leased and published by his board, he having absolute control, and having the editor of said paper employed at a stipulated salary. Just what transpired at the first meeting of the board is not generally known, but it is understood that permanent plans were made for continuing the publication of the denomination's organ, as the Union is generally known. There were in this meeting Tuesday Rev. Seymour, of Clarksville, Tenn; C. P. Woodson, of Paris; A. J. Stokes, of Montgomery, only three out-of-town members. Those in the city attending were Reverends T. J. Townsend, E. M. Lawrence, E. W. D. Isaac, Wm. Craft, Messrs. T. G. Ewing and J. Thomas Turner. The board of management, according to the letterheads of this newly-formed publishing board, consists of Wm. Haynes, President; H. D. Carpenter, Vice-President; T. G. Ewing, Treasurer; E. W. D. Isaac, Editor, W. L. Craft, Secretary; A. J. Stokes, Business Manager. A better part of the day was spent in arranging for the bringing out of the first issue of the paper under its new management. It is learned that they do not contemplate keeping this organ at its regular size, which is 16 pages, 3 columns, 20 ems; it is probable, according to the editor's statement, that it will not be larger than eight pages, whether it will remain a 3 column, 20 em paper, or whether it will be a 5 column, 13 em could not be learned, but it is known that considerable interest was created when the information went out that Dr. Boyd, of the Publishing House, was no longer its business manager. It is being rumored also that it is probable that the function of this new publishing board—and it is regarded as such—is not likely to be confined to publishing a weekly newspaper, as a newspaper subscription business alone is not generally a good source of revenue, and this is a matter that will no doubt, come out in the future of the new board. It was supposed that the President of the Convention, Rev. E. C. Morris, D. D., of Helena, Ark., would be present but he was not seen in the city during the week, hence was not at the meeting. About the middle of the week no information could be ascertained as to whether the Union would be printed at the Baptist Publishing House, or whether Dr. E. W. D. Isaac, its Editor, would bring it out from his place, the Nashville Clarion Office. Nashville has had the distinction of sending out the largest distinctively, denominational journal published by the race which position the National Baptist Union has occupied for a number of years; and whether they will gain or lose by the recent action of their convention will be determined by its success under the new management. According to well-informed member of the denomination it is understood that this new board is composed of NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1909. thirty-two of the ablest members representing as many different states, these, it is learned, held a meeting in Columbus and elected a board of management, which is to make its debut into the affairs of Nashville as a business concern this week. It is further stated that the very best of feeling prevails among the several boards located here, and indeed, it adds another important feature to their denominational work as it locates in this city permanently, the newest addition to the religious work of the Negro Baptists. This will make five separate boards with headquarters in Nashville, and at the present ratio the oft made assertion, that Nashville is the headquarters of the African Methodists and Negro Baptists, will be almost confirmed. YE OULD DEESTRICK SKULE. The personnel of the "Ould Deestrick Skule" to be rendered at the First Baptist Church, Friday, October 29, includes quite a fun-making party. Hon. R. L. Mayfield, in the part of school master, Dr. F. A. Stewart as head commissioner, Miss Nannie Perkins as Mrs. Honeysuckle, the mother of the Honeysuckle twins, Miss Lula Polk as the favorite twin to little Ezekiel. (Mr. Foster Jones), and the gum-chewing girl, lisping girl, impressible boy, are all unsurpassed in their respective parts. To say nothing of the fifty scholars attending the skule, who will appear on this night in their "last day to school" attire and will give an excellent exhibition of speeches, essays, solos, compositions and the like. TEXANS AT MEHARRY. The State of Texas has this year, as in former years, sent quite a number of students to the various schools of Nashville. They come from the different sections of the Lone Star State and a number of them make good in all departments of school work. Some of those who have arrived in the past ten days are: Mr. O. E. Bledsoe, A. B., Marshall, Texas, here for the year; E. W. Bates, of Dallas, Texas; N. F. Brown, La Grange; G. F. McLain, Marshall; Chas, George, E. D. Pul'em, W. E. Taylor, Houston; Miss Maud Moses, San Antonia; I. A. Gordan, Waxachie; J. E. Munches, Wxahaachie; J. S. Scott, Marsha'l: Jas Franklin, Galveston; B. B. Lewis, San Antonia; B. A. Everett, Dallas; R. H. McRuffin, Terrell; A. Lynn Taylor; J. A. Russell, Houston. LILY OF THE VALLEY CLUB. The Lily of the Val'ey Clb met at the beautiful home of Dr. and Mrs. T. J. Townsend, Heffernan street, last Wednesday evening, October 9. After the regular transaction of business the club was royally entertained by the hostess. This club is doing a great work for the church, and will give an entertainment Friday, October 15 at the residence of Mrs. Marie Autenberry, of Garden street, South Nashville. It is earnestly requested that the members of Spruce Street Baptist Church and its many friends will patronize this entertainment. BIRTHDAY PARTY. Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Drake, of Pearl street, gave a birthday party last Thursday afternoon in honor of the eighth anniversary of their little daughter, Lucy. From five o'clock until seven o'clock the litte ones played all kinds of games. They were finally called into the dining-room where a three-course menu was served. Those present were Misses Maurice Huston, Lucy McNairy, Samuella Wellington, Annie Gertrude Sublett, Helena Turner, Charlie Mai Belle Malone, Sarah Elizabeth Perkins, Augusta Belle Patten, Masters James Herd Watkins, Albert Owens, Jr. Robert Wellington. She received many pretty presents. AZALIA ART CLUB The Azalia Art Club was delightfully entertained at the residence of Mrs. Cynthia Boyd, of 708 Sylvan street. The meeting was presided over by the president. Song and prayer by the chaplain. After the regular business the guests were invited into the dining-room, where an ice-course was served. Seated around the table to enjoy this occasion were Mrs. H, Ransom, Thomas Rid'ey, Mrs J. A. Crockett, Mrs. Alex Kirk, Mrs. Cynthia Boyd, Miss Josie Woods, Miss Elizabeth Morgan, M. Elijah Snowden. The roll was called and quotations given at the table. The next meeting will be held with Miss Elia B. Drive, of Main street, October 18th. JOHN BROWN OF HARPER'S FERRY FAME GOMES IN PROM.NENCE. Fiftieth Anniversary, Monday Seventeenth. THE STORY OF THAT MEMORABLE OCCASION GRAPHICALLY TOLD—HIS RAID CONSIDERED BY MANY TO BE THE BEGINNING OF THE CIVIL WAR—NEGROES PLAYED CONSPICUOUS PART IN THE EVENTS OF THE OCCASION. Monday, October 17, will mark the fiftieth anniversary of John Brown's raid at Harper's Ferry, an episode which was not so much a cause as it was a consequence. It was the result of forces which were historical in their sweep, irresistible in their operation, and which met in physical collision during the momentous years from 1861 to 1865. The war, which may be said to have begun at Harper's Ferry on October 17, 1859, settled forever the question of peaceable secession or the disolution of the Union by consent. "John Brown's body lies a-moldering in the grave." That grave, in compliance with his request prior to his execution at Charlestown, Va. (now W. V.), for his part in the raid, is near Lake Placid, in the Adirondacks, the scene of his early manhood. In those days, as indeed, during the days when Brown was on trial for his life, he was regarded as a fanatic by all except the extreme abolitionists of the North, who, however, as an organization, were not cognizant of his plans. Before he appeared at Harper's Ferry Brown, had participated in the border warfare in Kansas and was known as "Ossawatomie" Brown, Ossawatomie, Kan., being his home. Time has mellowed the rancorous feeling that was excited throughout the South and in wide circles in the North and West by Brown's raid, which was at the time accepted as an attempt to bring about an insurrection of the slaves. While the event hastened the war between the states, it is recognized by students of the times that the conflict was inevitable. The night of Sunday, October 16, 1859, the majority of the people of Harper's Ferry were at church, a Meth Gist revival or protracted meeting, being in progress. John Brown, with a band of 22 men, white and colored, advanced on the place. He was to capture the United States arsenal at Harper's Ferry, with the rifles, muskets and ammunition stored there, and incite the Negroes to rebel and join forces with him in a struggle for their freedom. One detachment of the raiders proceeded to the covered railroad bridge, where William Williams was on duty as watchman. He was made a prisoner. At midnight, when Patrick Higgins went to relieve Williams, he could not find the latter at the accustomed post. Brown had placed two of his raiders on duty at the bridge. As Higgins was calling for his partner the two men referred to put in an appearance and Watchman No. 2 found himsef in the toils. One of the two assigned to the bridge started off to conduct Higgins to the town, prisoner and captive making their way slowly across the ties, there being no floor, and the night was dark. Higgins was a stalwart fellow, and of a sudden he dealt the Brownite a staggering blow and dashed off. The raider, being unfamiliar with the bridge and the spacing between the ties, realized that he could not make a successful pursuit. He fired upon the fleeing form, but failed to hit the mark. Haywood Shepherd, a free Negro, who was employed as a porter around the railroad station, was aroused by the disturbance and started for the bridge. The guard ordered him to halt, but Shepherd, suspecting that something was amiss, started back for the station on the run. The guard fired and Shepherd was wounded. He died the following day. Breaking Down the Gates. In the meantime John Brown, with the remainder of his party—four had been left on the Maryland shore, in addition to the two posted at the bridge—proceeded to the musket armory, alongside the Potomac, and, after breaking down the gates, made a prisoner of Daniel Whalen, the watchman, and took possession of the establishment. The rifle armory was also captured, and Samuel Williams, the watchman there, placed in custody. Brown next sent forth a detail to place the prominent planters of the locality under arrest. Among those gathered in were Lewis Washington, a nephew of President Washington, NEGROES DRAW COLOR LINE. Dayton, Oct. 4.—The color line in the schools of this city is being drawn by the colored people themselves, who through the colored Y. M. C. A. have launched a petition for a separate school for colored pupils. The subject already is before the educational committee of the board of education.—Springfield Daily News. CLASS ENTERTAINED. Mr. Samuel Harrison, of Hefferman street, teacher of Class Number Ten of Mount Olive Baptist Sundayschool, entertained his class at the home of Mr. G. W. Gray, 926 E'eventh avenue, North, last Friday evening. Those present were Mesdames Cornelia Price, Mollie White, Maggie Tensley, G. W. Gray, Sallie Rodges, Misses Elnora Words, Geneva Gray, Jenetta Clark, Louise Milam, Jimmie King, Idella Harriel, Esther Lofton, Oddville Baltrope, Florence Turner, Addie Milam, Ogla Coffey, Lula Patterson, Georgia Gray, Messrs. Samuel Johnson, Harry Harrison, Eugene Evans, Charlie Williams, Samuel Harrison, Jr. Samuel Harrison, Sr. A program consisting of recitations, solos, duets and addresses, was carried out. An elaborate menu was served at a late hour. McGAVOCK—DILLARD. Mr. Frederick McGavock and Miss Martha Dillard were quietly married at the home of his sister, Mrs. Julia Dancer, of 606 Cleveland street, Thursday, October 7, 1909. The bride wore a gray cloth dress and carried a large bunch of carnations. The groom wore a black broadcloth suit. Only the family and a few intimate friends were present. After the ceremony an ice-course was served in the dining-room, which was beautifully decorated with the predominating colors, pink and white. The bride and groom will reside with the groom's sister, Mrs. William Dancer. SMALL BLAZE AT THE PUBLISHING HOUSE. Rev. R. H. Boyd and family, who reside in the second story of the Administration Building of the Publishing House at 523 Second avenue, North, were aroused Wednesday morning by the heat and smoke of what threatened to be a very disastrous fire. Dr. Bovd was the first to be aroused. His bedroom was filled with smoke and he was almost suffocated. His wife was partially suffocated and was with difficulty revived. The other members of the family were awakened, a fire brigade organized, and the five-gallon bottles of distilled water were pressed into service in an effort to extinguish the flames. How the fire originated is unknown, but fortunately it was discovered before it had made much headway. The alarm was turned in by the night watchman, Mr. Jerry Robinson, and the Chemical Company quickly responded. The first duty was to take Dr. Boyd in out of the cold, for in his fright, and effort to summon help he had reached the street only partly clothed as he was in his night shirt. Through the persuasion of the fire department he was entreated to come in, and the brave fighters soon had the flames under control. The result was only a small damage to the plant. BIRTHDAY ENTERTAINMENT. No. 41. Sixty-five Thousand Dollar Building. THAT AMOUNT TO BE SPENT FOR THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE AT ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY—NASHVILLE THE CHOICE OF THE NATIONAL CONVENTION WILL BE A GREAT ADJUNCT TO THE UNIVERSITY—PLANS WILL SOON BE SUBMITTED. If the plans and resolutions concerning the enlargement of the educational work of the National Baptist Convention culminate in any thing like actual work, Nashville will have a $50,000 Theological Seminary, thus adding another great educational institution. Much has been said from time to time about this proposed Theological Seminary and the voting of $50,000 to be put in buildings and equipments, designating that they be put in Nashville, is in part a repetition of the vote and order that passed the National Convention when it met in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1906, when they accepted a proposition from the American Baptist Home Mission Society by which if they raise a certain amount of money they would get $15,000. Now these Baptists say they will raise $50,000. If this is true the institution will start out as a $65,000 plant. Actual work in the way of plans is practically at a standstill on account of the serious illness of Dr. A. N. McEwen, the newly elected Secretary of the Board, which prevented him from even meeting the National Baptist Convention, and the Chairman, Rev. T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, is not disposed to close any actual plans until his board can be called together and decide on more vigorous plans to push the work. True, it stated that Rev. Sutton Griggs, of this city, will do the general field work, but just how much money can be raised depends entirely upon the way the denomination is able to line up its force and appeal to its large membership. Last year it will be remembered that during Dr. Searcy's visit to the Board meeting it was permanently decided to open this Theological Seminary at Roger Williams University, the university having agreed to share temporarily the members of the faculty with them. Some are saying that plans for a building will soon be drawn and that three prominent Negro architects, namely, Moses McKissack and Co., of Nashville, W. A. Ray field and Co., of Birmingham, Ala. and W. T. Bailey, of Tuskegee, Ala. are asking to be allowed to submit plans. But these reports cannot be confirmed as none of the Educational Board members would say definitely what is to be done in the near future. But that they are encouraged is evidently due to the splendid success being achieved at Roger Williams. I Rev. Searcy's plans of last year are carried out he will open his educational campaign in Middle Tennessee and extend it to the east, winding up in the west. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. Mr. H. A. Cameron will lead in the discussion Sunday afternoon. A fifteen-day campaign for members has been started. The contest is to be known as the Cook-Peary contest. Mr. Leon Hurt, Capt. Peary, and Mr. H. A. Cameron, Capt. Cook. MR. THOS, JAMES PASSES AWAY. Mr. Thos. James, of St. Eli Primitive Baptist Church, departed this life Sunday night, September 19, 1909. He died in the church just before services at the age of 41 years. He had been a faithful member of St. Eli Primitive Baptist Church for sixteen years and a loving deacon for seven years. He was a'so the superintendent of the Sunday-school and a member of the Bible Band and the State Convention. He was elected a delegate to the Big Harpeth Association, which convened at Franklin, Tenn., Saturday, September 4, 1909. Mr. O. J. O. Miller, of Murfreesboro, entered Meharry last Tuesday.

Last Saturday evening, October 7, Mr. Geo. Holmes, of 910 Shankland street gave a surprise party in honor of his wife, Mrs. Ida B. Holmes, presenting some very nice household fixtures. The guests were Miss Georgia A. Lofton, Mrs. N. E. Dunlap, Mrs. Amy Payne, Mr. L. S. Gray. The evening was pleasantly spent. Refreshments were served at an appropriate hour. A FULL TICKET SUGGESTED. Rev. Wm. E. Stewart, of Little Rock, Ark., was so enthused over the recent session of the Baptist Convention held at Columbus, that he went home and wrote the Union, a Baptist paper, offering the following national officers: he said, "Let's see you hold your breath while I name the gentlemen: for President, Booker, T. Washington; for Vice President, E. C. Morris; for Secretary of State, R. H. Boyd; for Attorney General, E. W. D. Isaac; for Post Master, General, C. H. Clark; for Secretary of Navy, J. P. Robinson; for Secretary of War, A. T. Stewart; for Secretary of Agriculture, Jno. W. Lee; for Secretary of Commerce, L. G. Jordan. We could fill every foreign station. We have men with brain, energy, common sense enough, religion enough, who would be conservative enough to deal out justice to all people alike." WANT ONE THOUSAND IN SUN DAY SCHOOL A plan was launched at a special meeting of the pastor, officers and Sunday-school teachers of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church and Sunday-School whereby a thousand children will be put into the Sunday-school auditorium of their church on Sunday mornings. The plan, as outlined by Superintendent Lewis, Deacons Martin and Gibbs. Teachers Gray, Harrison, Binkley and Saunders assisted by the lady teachers, officers and pastor of the church, is a mammoth mass-meeting to be held at their church real soon. The trend of the meeting is to further the already great work being done in this city by the advanced Sunday-school movement. There is to be a committee to arrange a special program for the mass-meeting. A Committee on Arrangement and Invitations was appointed Sunday consisting of Deacons Martin and Gibbs. This committee is to invite the official board of the church and all of its members. The Program Committee as named is L. S. Gray, Chairman, John Ridley, Samuel L. Harrison, H. A. Boyd and Burt Stanley. This committee will arrange for speakers and invite members from other churches to address the mass-meeting thereby adding more importance to the movement. This is not to be a mass-meeting for resolutions, said Superintendent Lewis, but one of a heart to heart talk with parents, who either for the lack of interest or some other cause, have lent their children away from Sunday-school. Dr. Clark, the pastor of the church, declares that with a membership of twelve or fifteen hundred he ought to have an enrollment of one thousand or more in his Sunday-school and that the average attendance ought to be seven or eight hundred, hence he is working for this number. The final date of this meeting as decided upon was the second Thursday in November, which is the 11th. A general invitation will be issued by the committee. MARRIAGES.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1909. NIGHT SCHOOLS The night school that is being conducted in the Hadley school building is not being attended as largely as it should. There are hundreds of poor people in this city who could take advantage of the opportunity offered them to acquire a commonschool education. Some of them are of an age that would admit them to the day schools, but are prohibited from attending in the day by reason of circumstances, and then there are others who are past the age at which pupils are accepted in the public schools, but there is no age limit in the night school. The only restriction placed on attendants is that those who are of an age that will admit them to the day school and who are not hampered in any way from doing so will not be admitted to the night school. This cannot be called a restriction, for it is better for children to attend school in the day than at night. They should be in the house at night, where their parents can be accountable for them. But in cases where a child of school age can give a reasonable explanation for not attending school in the day, that child is admittable to a seat in the night school and all persons over school age can attend. Every seat in the Hadley building ought to be taken. The young man or woman unable to read and write is not of much worth to themselves nor to the community, and are becoming of less worth every day. It is hoped that the thinking people will feel it their duty to encourage attendance to the night school of all who need to take advantage of the opportunity. CITY CAMPAIGN In the city campaign that has just closed the Negro played a conspicuous part. They were registered one thousand and eleven strong and held a commanding position. True, effort was put forth to make them believe that their votes would not be of any consequence, but the thousand votes were sought just the same. The regular old-time "ward-heelers" tried to convince the candidates in the usual way that they controlled the Negro voters in this or that ward, but the truth of the matter is those men who registered and paid their own poll taxes were competent to decide for them- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1909 selves how they would use their privilege. The campaign is over now and the city officials have been elected. Would it not be advisable for the Negro men of this city to get together and have an understanding? There is need of an organization in each ward, and they should be made up of reputable men. The day is at hand when the world should be given to understand that the voters of this city are a set of men who cannot be bought and sold, but men who are looking to the welfare of the city and the Negro citizens in particular. It will not be worth while to organize clubs with professional politicians as leaders who essay to make a living at their profession. We have suffered that too much and too long. We need organizations composed of men who are honest and conscientious, and who are interested in the welfare of the people from one election to another. BUSINESS LEAGUES. There appears in another column some suggestions from the president of the National Negro Business League. He makes some suggestions that are very timely and which it would be well for the officials of all local leagues to abide by. The two leagues in this city need to give these suggestions special attention. The practice of holding meetings only when there is an excitement up does no good whatever. If there is a way to bestir the heads of the local leagues in Nashville to a constant activity we hope Mr. Washington will suggest it in the near future. Monday, the 17th, will be the fiftieth anniversary of the John Brown raid. The day is a memorable one in the history of this nation to the enemies of the man as well as his friends. The Negroes of this country love that name, and whether or not he acted wisely in making that raid, it must be admitted that he was striking at an evil that was cruel to the extreme. The North Pole dispute continues to attract world-wide attention. Mr. Cook has taken time by the forelock and is raking in the coin with Captain Peary serving him as a splendid advance agent by the charges he is giving to the associated press. Maybe they agreed on this plan while in the Arctic regions. Some one writing from Murfreesboro forgot to sign a communication. If the party will send us their name we will gladly publish their communication in next week's issue. The local Y. M. C. A. is not receiving the attention it is due. The young men ought to be substantially encouraged to prosecute this work with vigor. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS Negro's Political Power. All told, there are at present time 638,502 Negro voters who live in States where there is no question about their votes being counted as they are cast. Here, it can be seen at a glance that the Negro in America possesses immense political power. He must learn to use it in an effective manner, more so than he has in the past. This is a matter which ought to be taken up and discussed more. It has been done in the press and in our public and private organizations. The Jews, Armenians, Scandinavians, Germans and Irishmen all make themselves felt in the political world by the way that they vote. The Negro must learn to do the same thing.—New York Age. The man who is always carrying news and slandering somebody ought to be shunned as though he was an adder—his sting is more poisonous than that of a viper. He assumes a friendly attitude and respect for some people, which is only a ruse whereby he is endeavoring to fasten his deadly fangs upon them. Beware, beware of the tattler.—The Reformer. In most all towns or cities there can be found human hogs who will not be led by any one, they must either lead or there is "nothing doing." In the meantime they have never succeeded in anything except finding fault with the fellow who is a glaring success in business or anything else under his direction. We have discovered, however, that any old fool can find fault and they rarely ever succeed in anything else. No man will ever succeed in anything if he listens to the fault-finding fool. —Florida Standard. Bad for Lottery Gamblers With a desire to avoid any misuse of the United States postal laws in the operations of their national lottery the Cuban authorities have hit upon a measure which is not only extremely novel but gives promise of complete success. It is in the form of a rule stipulating that no prizes drawn by tickets passing through the mails of this country will be paid. All such prizes, it appears, will be either handed over to the Cuban government or turned into the lottery treasury. This is guarding American morals with a vengeance. Inasmuch, however, as the lottery managers might have difficulty in proving that a prize-winning ticket had been carried in the United States mails, they might go a step further and make assurance doubly sure by declaring that no prizes won by tickets held in this country would be paid, regardless of whether they had been carried by mail or otherwise. That would have clinched the whole matter so far as lottery gambling in America is concerned. But the Cubans evidently do not care to go that far. They doubtless expect to do a big lottery business here, and by putting the ban on the mails as a means of delivering tickets they will probably hasten the development of other agencies of distribution. It has been easy to express our national sense of dislike to the Cuban lottery, but it will be quite another thing to make it effective.—Central Afro-American. Baltimore's Great Need There is good money awaiting the man, men, woman or women who will open in Baltimore a good hotel for the accommodation of the colored traveling public. If we could just induce Mr. Bright of the Hotel Mt. Vernon in Norfolk to pull up stakes and come to Baltimore and open a hotel such as he has there, we feel sure that the traveling public would not only patronize him but would give him a vote of thanks for so doing. By all means, let us have a good hotel in Baltimore. —Afro-American Ledger. COMMUNICATION. --- Encouragement. To the Nashville Globe: Encouragement is a word with which to conjure if it spells out our relations and actions in lending a helping hand in lifting up the lowly and discouraged of our fellowmen. There is a multiplicity of ways in which we can cheer the hearts of those less fortunate than ourselves who come within the sphere of our personal influence. A cheery word, a friendly handshake, a little kindly act graciously shown to one who has no other claim upon us than that he or she is a fellow-creature whose needs or condition, mentally or physically, appeals to our humane sympathies and points out the duty we owe to him or her as a fit recipient of the dispensation of our common humanities will do much to relight the lamp of hope. Encouragement given to a fellow-being, if it is the result of principle evolved from fellow-feeling, is the result of a humanitarian principle, and such a principle should actuate and guide every life. We came into the world to contribute something to its betterment and thereby add our individual share to the momentum which is to swing the pendulum of human goodness as far back toward that of original Eden as in our power lies, or it is possible for us, as mortal agencies, to attempt and achieve. It is for those in the lighthouses along the shores to keep the lower as well as the upper lights burning so that their friendly rays may be of assistance to those adrift upon the sea of life, enabling them to steer their barks into some haven of safety. Encouragement of any sort that will put the iron of resolution for renewed endeavor into the heart of a desponding brother will ever be treasured by him as a priceless boon, and he will remember with lasting gratitude the giver. Every age, clime and condition of men teem with beautiful examples of generous helpers of men through the medium of encouragement and their grateful recipients who in turn leave their impress upon We Recommend That Our Readers Trade With The Merchants that Advertise in Cut out this coupon and present it when you go to make a purchase, and we guarantee you will always get a square deal.

There is so much good, sterling advice to each of us in these words: If you've any torch to light, Guiding others through the night, Light it. If you've anything to give, That anothers joy might live, Give it. Encouraging, cheering words thrown back by the forward climbers up life's mountain cost them but little, yet they are inspiring and worth much to the weary climbers farther down the steeps.

Without realizing what had happened, the planters and leading citizens, with their slaves, were conducted to the armory. The citizens were seized one by one as they were returning to their homes from the protracted meeting. At day: break the armory yard was crowded with prisoners. Although Brown had cut the tele- graph wires, he did not stop the rail- road. trains from passing through Harper's Ferry. The news of the raid spread rapidly throughout the surrounding country, and the farm- ers, arming themselves as best they could, hurried to the town. Several skirmishes took place between the farmers and the raiders, Thomas Hurley, who advanced on the in- vaders with a shotgun, was shot, and Alexander Kelly received a bullet through his hat. First Shots by the Mob. Of Colonel Lee's force Luke Quinn was killed, and a comrade, Ruppert by name, had his lip torn away by a bullet. The following account, of the raid was told by Jacob Wildner, of New Lisbon, Wis., the last survivor of Brown's band: “On Sunday, October 16, 1859, John Brown and our men crossed the rail- road bridge over the Potomac River, seized the United States arsenal, stopped the railway trains, captured a number of citizens, set free such slaves as they could find, and held the town for more than 24 hours, “The telegraph lines were cut and arms sent to the slaves, with the ex- pectation that they would rise up at once, but this, for some reason un- known to me, they refused to do. “The situation was thus unexpect- edly made critical for us, and our leader ordered pickets to be estab- lished to warn us of the coming of citizens who were arming against us. They attacked the arsenal the next day. When we saw them coming John Brown gave us positive orders not to begin hostilities, so we held our fire until attacked. The first shots were fired by the mob. We re- turned the fire, of course, to the best of our ability, and succeeded in hold: ing them at bay for a time. It soon became apparent to us, however, that the building could not be maintained against our assailants, whose num bers were increasing every minute. John Brown’s Career. Brown was an old man of vener- able appearance, sedate and calm apparently, but after an acquaintance a man of stolid, inflexible demeanor. He was born in Torrington, Conn., May 9, 1800. His fraternal ancestor. Pete Brown, came over with the his: torie party in the Mayflower, 1620. At an early age John Brown was ta ken by his parents to Ohio, where he became acquainted with the Indians who were dwelling all around. He took great delight in going on adven: turous expeditions. Early in life he was married to Diana Lusk, a widow, by whom he had seven children. His wife dying, he shortly afterward mar: ried Mary Ann Day, who died in San: Francisco, Cal. in 1884. Thirteen children were born to them. “Brown was engaged in various um dertakings and lived for a time in Ohio, Pennsylvania, land Massachu- setts. From this state he made trips to England with cargoes of wool. He subsequently purebased a farm at North Elba, N. Y., and settled there. During all this time he was secretly engaged in abolition enterprises un- der assumed names. Five of his sons, in the year 1854, removed to the state of Kansas, the: father join- ing them the next year, settling near the town of Osawatomie. There the whole family become mixed up in the fierce factional contests over slavery. Finally they had to leaye the state. In several bloody fights they were charged with the murder of five pro- slavery men, who were secretly called from their beds at night and mur- dered. Brown collected a quantity of money from abolition sympathizers in the North, and with this money purchased a quantity of firearms, spears, swords and other weapons. SPORT. Is Joe Woodman, manager of Sam Langford, planning for an inva- sion of England this fall with a stable of all-colored stars, headed, of course, by the dusky Bostonian, who has al- ready made divers successful tours under Woodman's management to our shores. Woodman has, all along, planned on returning to this country with Sam Langford, but it now ap- pears that he has taken two other colored boxers under his wing, and will have them show up satisfactorily in some try-outs they are to have shortly in Boston, Mass. These fight- ers are Ralph Calloway and Kyle Whitney, California products, it is understood, who recent'y traveled to New York and put themselves under Woodman’s management. The matchmakers of the National Sporting Club have had more deal ings with Woodman than with any other American fight promoter, and those dealings have always been so satisfactory that it is practically cer- tain that if Woodman personally vouched for Calloway and Whitney the National would consent to stage them, albeit that it is not the club's intention to go in for American box- ers so evtensively as a year ago, But a colored boxer—or a colored athlete of any kind, for that matter—has al- ways had a peculiar charm for Eng- lish audiences. eee On the day set for the battle be- tween Jack Johnson and Stanley Ketchel, James J. Jeffries will sail from London for America to sign articles for his proposed battle with Johnson. At least, that is the information given out a few days ago by Sam Berger, of San Francisco, the man who keeps the hat store and is supposed to be manager of Jeff's affairs in the ring. Jeffries was reported to have signed articles of agreement for the go with Johnson before taking his depar- ture for Europe, but now comes word from across the sea that Jim will sign a new set upon his arrival, and will then make final arangements for the match. To a man up the tree this does not look good. Johnson, from all accounts, has given up hopes of meeting Jeff and refuses to take the big fellow seriously. When Jeff ar- rives he may have some difficulty in getting Johnson to meet him for a talk over the articles. Then, again, it is said that the black is tied to a bar- gain to go abroad to give exhi. bitions for Promoter McIntosh, Of course, it would be better for both Jeff and Johnson if they got right down to business at once, as it would help Jeff to get back some of the friends he has lost by beating around the bush so long before matching ur with Johnson, and as for Johnson, it would give him all the more prestige in London, where he lost favor be cause hed id not live up to the agree- ment he made with the National Sporting Club to meet Sam Langford after the fight with Tommy Burns in Australia.

Saturday afternoon, Oct. 3, on Bennett Pield will occur one of the most im- portant football struggles, which will be waged on the gridiron of Negro institutions this season, Once more the old-time rivals, Fisk and Knox- villé College will. confront each other for the honors of the year. Whenever these two teams have “lineup” there has been “something doing” in the realm of football. Every contest between them has been fought to the bitter end, yet alweys with that “clean playing” which so delights the hearts of all true lovers of pure sport. Knoxville has always been able to put out on the field a team which, in weight, surpasses that of any other Southern Negro school, and in skill and fighting strength ranking among the best. The efficiency of Fisk in football is well-known and it is safe to gay that she will not be behind the standard of other years. She is determined to have the Southern championship for her own, and is sparing nothing in the way of prepa- ration and hard earnest work on the part of all to turn out a team which shall be the acknowledged superior of all contenders. The old men on the team are working like raw recruits to get into the pink of condition. Up- shaw, Fisk's capable half-back, with the ready toe, is rounding quickly into his old-time shape. McMillan, last year’s wonderful tackle, looks better than ever. Jackson, who made the long run for a touchdown on Me- harry last Thanksgiving Day, is ex- pected to be heard from again this year; Stith, captain and quarter- lack, is working with his usual ener- gy and snap; Rosenberg, Giles, Den- nis, Payne, Washington and Flowers, A new man at center, who promises to equal the work of Warren last year. all cause the hearts of the sons and ‘daughters of the old gold and blue to hope for great things. Enthusiasm is rampart throughout the University and the eleven gladiators will have full backing from the side lines. The game between Fisk and Knox- ville will, in a great measure, have something to do with the aspirations for the championship, and will, no doubt, be bitterly contested. Those who want a “tip” as to the ranking of the different schools at the end of the season, as well as to get an “eye opener” to the other games scheduled for later on, would do well to witness this coming event. Pearl High School and Fisk Seconds Tie an ey At Fisk last Saturday the football season was opened with a game be- tween Pearl High School and the Fisk Scrubs. The field was dry and hard and the weather warm, which rendered it yery unfavorable for the sport. A fair crowd was out for the initial game and they were furnished a good run for their money. ‘The two teams were pretty evenly matched. They played two fast fif- ten-minute halves, neither side being able to score. Fisk was strongest in the offensive, but the boys from the High School proved their masters in the defensive. Considerable fumbling was done by both teams, but this de- fect was lessened as the game pro- gressed, A feature of the game that should be praised was the strict obedience to the decision of the officials. While both teams contended for their rights, that excessive-wrang- ling, too often indulged in, was elim inated. The Pearl High team prom: ised to be a strong contender for the Preparatory School championship of ‘the South this season, and the varsity ‘team of Fisk will have in their scrubs a team that will be of great service to them in rounding too for the big games skeduled for this season, RESOLUTION OF RESPECT. Whereas, God Almighty has again visited our'ranks and taken from us another one of our members and’ ex- officers, Lula Johnson, be it Resolved, That we, the Juvenile So- ciety No, 79, of Odd Fellows, tender our heart-felt sympathy to the be- reaved family; be it further Resolved, That since God has in cne of his mysteries taken another one of our most worthy members, we will only say. “Well done good and faithful servant.” We do not, want Lula to return to us, but we will one by one leave this sinful world and our spirits will re- turn to God, who gave it, and our bodies to its mother earth, Resoived, That a copy of these res- olutions be sent to the family and a copy be spread on our minute book.

Whereas, God Almighty in his wise providence has taken from our midst cur beloved sister, Etta Lee Bradford, President of the Juvenile Society No. 79 G. U. O. of O. F., we bow in humble submission with his will; be it Resolved, That we tender the fam- ily our heart-felt sympathy in this their sad hour of bereavement; be it further Resolved, While we miss her from our midst, we can safely say that our joss is heaven’s gain, and while he has seen fit to call her from labor to reward that we will try to live in this world that we will meet her above. Resolved That a copy of these res- olutions be sent to the bereaved fam- ily and one be spread on our minute book. 7 “Well done of God to have the lot, And give her all the sweetness; To us the empty room and cot, To her all heaven's completeness.” Comimittee—Lottie . Balle, Estella Holland, Ernest Alexander. ‘ WOMAN’S AURORA, FOR NEGRO DOLLS. ‘There is published in Omaha, Neb., @ magazine devoted to the interest of Afro-American Womanhood. This pe- riodical is an official organ of the Nebraska Federation of Colored Women’s Clubs. It is edited by Lu- cille Skaggs Edwards, who, whie liv- ing in the Northwest, taking a deep interest in all that pertains to the welfare of the race and having fluent speech and a handy pen, hails from Tennessee. In the October number of the magazine the following ap- peared: “None will deny that the Negro is deficient in race-pride; all admit that what little we do possess has been forced upon us—the result of disciim- inations from without. “Race-pride in the Negro was sup- pressed by years of bondage; we can not hope for a very great develop- ment in the present generation, but we may sow the seed among the chil- dren of to-day and reap rich harvest in the men and women of to-morrow. There are various means by which this sentiment may be fostered and cultivated in the minds of our chil- dren, and one which wil contribute much toward its development is the Negro doll. “Ist, They are a No, 1 quality and are as cheap as white dolls of the same grade. “2nd, They are as beautiful as the long-cherished white doll, and repre- sent ‘Negro’ and not ‘nigger.’ “3rd, They are manufactured for Negroes. “4th, Negro dolls for Negro children inspire a sense of pride for the ‘curly locks and brown complexion,’ and a feeling that one not necessarily needs to be white to be beautiful. Like most ideas put forward for our ad- vancement, the Negro doll has met opposition. It will require a deal of culture before it is generally adopted, but the day is coming when Negro children wil give first place and hen- or to the dolls of their race.

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 irious 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. 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 MURFREESBORO NOTES The Golden Light Club met with Sister Margaret Jarrett October 3. Members present, 26. The last meeting was held with Mrs. B. F. Ferguson October 11th.

It is noteworthy that his services are so much sought after now in his sixty-fifth year. Dr. Boothe is one of the best loved men in the state of Alabama and one of the most useful; and the theological course which he outlines for Normal College will be received with great delight by preachers and prospective students of theology who appreciate the opportunity pointed out to study the Bible under such a wise and earnest teacher. The following brief account of the labors of Dr. Boothe is a part of the history of many of the leading men and institutions in the South. Towards the later part of the Civil War the national government began the operation of an institution known as the "Freedman's Bureau." Under this institution Dr. Boothhe began teaching in Wayne and Greene Counties, Miss., in 1866. In 1875, in the Baptist Convention in session in Mobile, Dr. Booth drew up the articles under which the convention created a Board of Trustees for the establishment, support and government of "The Alabama Baptist Normal and Theological School," now know as "Selma University." From 1890 to the close of 1894, Dr. Boothe aided President W. H. Councill, of Huntsville, in an effort for the enlargement and greater influence of what is now known as "The Agricultural and Mechanical College of Alabama for Negroes." In this school he held the offices known as Dean and Chaplain. The school was greatly enlarged. In 1895-96, he organized the educational corporation in Jefferson County, Alabama Baptist Academy. In 1897-8 he organized Hollywood High School in Jackson County which owns a good lot of three acres with one frame building. In 1903-4 he organized the educational corporation in Jefferson County, Ala., kown as "The East Colored High School," which secured land in District (87) worth, including the building, $1,600. In 1906, as the Territories of Oklahoma and Indian Territory were on the threshold of statehood, he was requested by the Baptist people of the two territories, to assist them in organizing themselves into a general State organization for the prosecution of Christian Missions and education. He then drew up the articles for the creation and government of their educational work. And for two years he was President of 'Sango College and Industrial Institute" located at Muskogee, Okla. --- ENTERTAINED One of the most beautifully planned entertainments of this season was the one given by Miss Bessie Madeline Carter Friday, October 1, at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.

C., are to the effect that there is expected at the nation's capital an important delegation from many states next Tuesday, October 19, 1909, which is set apart as the opening day of the National Training School for Women. It will be remembered that the trustees of this school held a meeting in Nashville during the month of June and elected Miss N. H. Burroughs, A. M. of Louisville, Ky., President of this institution. Aside from this, they selected and laid out a course of study, practically making out a catalogue, but the opening day was only decided upon a few days ago. Quite a number of Nashville people have been invited to attend, especially the secretaries of the various boards located in the city, but it was not learned definitely whether any of them would attend or not.
