THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. IV. DISFRANGHISE LAW IN ALABAMA WORKING BOTH WAYS. More White Than Black Men Affected. OLD LINE POLITICIANS CONSIDERABLY WORRIED OVER NEW ELECTION LAW—LESS THAN ONE-FOURTH OF WHITE VOTERS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CONSTITUTIONAL ELECTION — PROHIBITIONISTS VERY JUBILANT OVER SITUATION. Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 20 (Special) "A little clause in the election laws of Alabama, aimed originally at the ballot of the Negro, has brought about a condition in this state that is causing the old-school politicians about as much worry as was ever caused by the problem of counting the vote of the "colored brother" on the right, side. The clause referred to makes the payment of poll tax optional, but restricts the right to vote to those who voluntarily pay this tax. In framing this provision it was the theory that every white man would pay the tax while practically every Negro would fail to do it. The result would be that the Negro would be disfranchised while the white man could go on voting as usual. The theory worked out according to expectations so far as the Negro is concerned, but it proved erroneous with reference to the white man. In fact, the white men of the state have been almost as negligent concerning the matter as have the Negroes, and as a result the affairs of the state are entirely in the hands of a small minority. HARD CAMPAIGN ON. Alabama is just now in the midst of one of the fiercest campaigns in the history of the state the issue being an amendment to the constitution writing prohibition in that instrument. The issue is being fought with vigor and the people are stirred from one end of the state to the other. Every possible pressure is being brought to bear upon the voters and every device known to the politician is being used in the effort to poll every vote in the state. Yet with interest keyed to the highest possible pitch and with both sides exerting the maximum of effort, it is not believed that more than 100,000 votes will be polled in the entire state—this is the face of the fact that Alabama now has a population probably in excess of 2,000,000. In brief, one citizen in 20 will vote and dictate the policy which is to govern the other nineteen. Behind this remarkable state of affairs is the long and tragic story of the white man's struggle to overcome the black man's vote. In accomplishing this feat in Alabama the white man utilized three methods. One was an educational clause, which eliminated a majority of the Negroes and also eliminated a considerable number of white men. EXEMPTED WAR FAMILIES. To let the white men in, the far-famed "grandfather clause" was conceived and carried into execution. This exempted those whose fathers or grandfathers had fought on either side of any war of which the United States was involved from the provisions of the educational clause and left no white man disfranchised. This did not make a clean sweep of the Negro; so as an additional precaution, the payment of poll tax was made optional, but the right to vote hinged upon the payment. As a result of these various enactments the Negro was eliminated as a political factor in this state, but as indicated above; the poll tax feature served to eliminate a vast number of white men, and to-day the vast majority of adult males have no vote in the choice of officers or the questions of public policy. That a vast number of white men would willingly surrender the right to vote when the privilege could be bought for $1.50 a year, the framers of the present laws never considered a possibility. Therefore, the old-time politicians look upon the present-day developments with amazement not unmixed with regret. CITY SAVINGS BANK IN LIQUIDATION. Not since the hard time under the administration of Grover Cleveland has so much excitement prevailed in financial circles as was evident in this city last Saturday morning when the news was spread over Nashville that the City Savings Bank that had only recently moved into its magnificent quarters on College street and which was recently known as the City Savings Bank and Trust Company had failed to open for business. The City Savings Bank was one of the white institutions in this city enjoying a tremendous Negro patronage and its closing is calculated to do much financial harm to some of the Negroes in the city. The President, Mr. Williams, who is an ex-mayor, was known and easily approached by no small number of the race, hence the institution had been able, in spite of the opening of two Negro banks, to hold much of the money belonging to the race. Quite a deal has been said through the daily papers as to the financial condition of the institution and the following shows the action of the court in the appointment of two receivers to wind up the affairs of the institution, together with some heavier loans and obligations of the bank: IN HONOR OF MRS. SHELTON. The many friends of Mrs. G. A. Shelton, of Chicago, Ill., who at one time lived in Nashville, partook of the hospitality of Dr. and Mrs. H. T. Noel, who planned a unique entertainment. This week at the invitation of old acquaintances of Mrs. Shelton the party was entertained on the Noel farm, which is eight miles out on the Hillsboro pike. The following were present: Mrs. C. H. Phillips, Mrs H. A. Boyd, Mrs. Nettie Langston Napier. Misses Ellena N. Compton, Hattie E. Hodgkins. Clara E. Hodgkins, Anita Scoot, Lady Emma Louise Phillips. Fannie M. Banks Katie A. Boyd, Mabel Scott, Mesdames J. H. Lapsley, I. B. Scott, G. A. Shelton, Mr. and Mrs. Hodgkins, Messrs C. N. Langston, A. L. Napier, M. D. J. C. Napier, Joshua Compton, Jr. Henry A. Boyd, T. L. O. Sullivan and Prof. J. T. Phillips. A sumptuous repast in picnic style was served. Messrs. J. C. Napier, Hodgkins and Dr. Noel got back into form in camp cooking. Mr. Napier, however, holds the best record for making coffee and broiling bacon. The many friends of Mrs. Shelton will remember that she is the mother of Mrs. McElwee and a sister of Mrs. J. H. Lapsley, one of the well-known city teachers. After the better part of the day had gone, the party roamed about the beautiful farm which is something over 120 acres. They climbed hills, chunked nuts from the trees, and spent a very pleasant day. It was a veritable procession when the rigs started back to the city. From the smallest to the largest animals were hitched up. There was a regular shetland pony in the party, the procession reaching the city about 7 o'clock. INSTRUCTOR AT WILEY UNI VERSITY. Possibly few people are aware that the talent, especially musical and vocal, possessed by the young men and women of Nashville, is sought after by some of the best educational institutions of the country. It is known that the majority of the young people who pursue and finish their musical training are immediately employed. Very often they are missed from the city without their friends knowing of their whereabouts. Then it develops that their services have been secured and that they are pursuing their chosen profession in some distant state. Among those now away is Miss Jenie P. Noel, the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. T. Noel. She is one of the instructors at Wiley University, Marshall, Tex. It seems that Miss Noel was away to assist in the commencement exercises last year and that the faculty fell decidedly in love with her ability. The two Nashville girls there on the faculty is quite a send-off for the city. AY, OCTOBER 2 1909. CONFERENCE OF G.M.E. CHURCH IN SESSION AT GAPER'S CHAPEL. Consisting of Churches In Two States. TENNESSEE AND INDIANA REPRESENTED—BISHOP C. H. PHILLIPS, OF THIS CITY, PRESIDING —SESSION OPENS WITH COMMUNION SERVICES—WELCOME ADDRESSES ON BEHALF OF OTHER CHURCHES — CONFERENCE SETTLES DOWN TO WORK THURSDAY MORNING. The thirty-ninth annual session of the Tennessee Conference of the Colored Methodist Church in America was opened Wednesday morning in Capers' Chapel C. M. E. Church, on Church street, with Bishop C. H. Phillips presiding. The opening services were solemn and impressive. The Bishop lined the old Methodist hymn, "Let us take up thy cross," etc., which was sung with much spirit and feeling by the ministers who are here representing communicants from over the state and portions of Indiana, after which Rev. R. B. Pope, Presiding Elder over the Clarksville District, led in a fervent prayer. The first Scripture lesson was read by Rev. H. J. Johnson, Presiding Elder over the Nashville District, who also led in a song which was feelingly sung by the audience. Bishop Phillips then entered into the Holy Communion service, reading the first twelve verses of the seventh chapter of Matthew. In commenting upon the verses read, he said: "This is no new Scripture to you, my brethren, and yet, before we come to the communion table to partake of the Lord's Supper, we may be able to draw a lesson from these verses which enjoins upon us certain obligations that we ought to keep before us." He brought out in a most impressive way that the minister should strive to please God and not man by both precept and example. Commenting upon the twelfth verse, he said: "If every man and woman would adhere to its principle, there would be no vexed problems to-day, think of it, 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you,' let us as ministers of the Gospel, strive to obey this blessed Scripture and we will please God and magnify his name." The song, "The King of Heaven, his table spreads," was sung and the ministers of the conference formed around the altar. The Bishop invited all visiting ministers who were in good standing with their church to come forward, as is the custom of the Methodists, and break bread, and on bended knees, administered the holy sacrament, after which a general handshaking ensued and the Holy Ghost seemed to be manifest throughout the church. The service was one of much stimulation and encouragement to the communicants as was shown by their outward emotions, who have been doing with their might that which has been assigned to their hands, laboring in the church, many under unfavorable conditions and trials, but thankful unto God that they are spared to assemble around the altar of another annual conference to further the cause of their Christ. At night the exercises of welcome were an interesting feature and the actual work of the conference was begun on Thursday morning. The introductory sermon was preached by one of the visiting ministers of the conference and Rev. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, of the St. Paul A. M. F. Church, of this city, and Rev. G. L. Imes, of the Howard Congregational Church, also of Nashville, delivered addresses. THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. "Shipwrecked" will be the subject of Rev. W. S. Ellington's discourse Sunday morning. The ordinance of baptism will be administered at 10:30 a.m. DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON TOUR TENNESSEE. Sometime within the next few weeks Booker T. Washington, of the Tuskegee Institute, is planning to make a tour through Tennessee, quite similar to the recent tours made by him through the states of Mississippi and South Carolina. The general arrangements for these tours are being planned by a committee composed of a number of the most prominent colored citizens of the state, including all sections. Dr. Washington's immediate party will consist of about twelve persons. The purpose of the visit is to enable Dr. Washington to learn something of the progress being made along educational and industrial lines by the Negro People of Tennessee, and at the same time, to be of what ever assistance he can in encouraging them to greater efforts and to cementing, as far as possible, friendly relations between the races. There can be no doubt of the warm welcome which will await Dr. Washington and his party at the various places to be visited. The whole itinerary, together with the dates decided upon for the tour, will be made very soon. MRS. G. A. SHELTON, CUEST OF THE PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CLUB. The spacious home of Bishop and Mrs. Evans Tyree was the scene of a very interesting social gathering Friday evening, October 8. The occasion was a reception by the Phyllis Wheatley Club to its former president, Mrs. G. A. Shelton, who for some years has resided in Chicago. The Phyllis Wheatley Club is one of the strongest social clubs among the women of the state, as was attested by the large number of its members who assembled to greet and pay their tribute of respect to the honoree of the occasion. The following programme was rendered: Club Song. "Our Guest". Miss Sophia A. Jackson Vocal Solo ...Miss Lillian A. Bright Address to the Club. Bishop Evans Tyree Vocal Solo ..Miss Alberta K, Davis Response to Club Mrs. G. A. Shelton Vocal Solo Miss Lady Emma Phillips Mrs. Shelton talked in her characteristic manner, in very lively vein, and every one enjoyed her sketch of club work in the city of Chicago. During the fourteen years' existence of the Phyllis Wheatley Club it has been presided over by five presidents—Mrs. C. S. Smith, Mrs. G. A. Shelton, Mrs. Evans Tyree, Mrs. Preston Taylor and Mrs. G. L. Jackson. Mrs. Shelton expressed herself as being highly gratified to see that the club spirit was high, club work effective and financial condition favorable. A two-course menu was served. Our zealous president, Mrs. G. L. Jackson, was ably assisted by Mrs. Evans Tyree as hostess of the occasion. The next meeting will be with Mrs. Jackson, 707 Lea avenue, Thursday afternoon, October 28. BROOKS-CLANTON. Mr. James Brooks and Miss Edna Clanton were quietly married Wednesday evening. Dr. R. H. Boyd performed the ceremony. Miss Clanton, who is a daughter of Dr. Clanton, of Selma University, Selma, Ala., is one of the efficient stenographers at the Baptist Publishing House. Mr. Brooks is an employee of the United States, being a railway mail clerk running from Evansville to St. Louis. It is rumored that Mr. and Mrs. Brooks may reside at Hopkinsville, Ky., some time in the near future. ENTERTAINED AT SIX O'CLOCK SUPPER. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Douglas, of 305 Third avenue, South, entertained in honor of Miss Ollie Wade on last Monday. The evening was an enjoyable one. Six o'clock supper was served, after which came music and the different games. Those present: Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Douglas, Mr. and Mrs. L. Douglas, Mrs. Wade, Miss Ollie Wade, Mrs. Mamie Bell, Messrs. Marshall Garrett, Johnson Cockrill, Master St. Claire Douglas served as waiter. Mrs. Ella Mahlove announces the marriage of her daughter, Miss Louella Dickson, to Mr. Lee Boyd. No. 42. JACK JOHNSON PUTS STANLEY KETGHEL TO SLEEP. End Game Suddenly In Twelfth Round. "MICHIGAN LION" NO MATCH FOR BLACK CHAMPION — APPARENT EARLY IN THE FIGHT THAT NEGRO HAD EVERYTHING HIS WAY—TOYED WITH HIS OPPONENT ELEVEN ROUNDS—EVIDENTLY WORKING FOR THE INTEREST OF THE PICTURE MACHINE. San Francisco, October 16, (Special)—The Ketchel-Johnson fight ended as every one of judgment in these matters supposed it would end. Ketchel, who is a wonder when equally matched, had about as much chance with the champion as a rabbit would have with a greyhound. Johnson toyed with his man for 11 rounds, and then put Ketchel to sleep with a volley of punches so fierce that the skin of Johnson's gloves was torn through contact with the middleweight champion's teeth. When Ketchel fell he went down heavily and spread-eagled on the floor on his back, his arms thrown out to the fullest extent. He was as lifeless as a log and a look of concern spread over Johnson's face. He eyed Ketchel closely while the count was in progress, and when it was all over and they gathered up the battered Michigander and bore him to his corner Johnson tiptoed after and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his victim was slowly coming back from slumberland. The closing round was a sensational one, and at the same time a peculiar one. Here is the way it went: Johnson for several rounds stood statue-like in the beginning and then suddenly snapped at Ketchel's face with lefts that shot in as straight as a die. In this particular round Ketchel went at Johnson the moment the gong rang. Johnson met him with one of his left prods, and some one in Ketchel's corner yelled: "Now, then, Stanley!" Ketchel started a giant swing with the right and his glove curved around Johnson's neck. Johnson fell clumsily to the floor, closely to where the writer sat, and I noticed a grin on his face as he went down. He did not remain down an instant, but jumped up quickly and turned to meet Ketchel's rush. Ketchel fairly impaled himself on Johnson's fast-flying fists and fell like a log. CHAMPION KNEW HIS MAN. It was a lamentably one-sided affair. Ketchel swore he would force the champion to lead. He did so on occasions, for that matter, but the pity of it was that when Johnson led he reached something. For about six rounds Johnson relied mainly on a straight left, and bleeding lips and blood-smeared face soon bore testimony to the accuracy of his aim. Ketchel pinned his fate on a left under swing for the short ribs. He got there, too, a few times, but the scoring was light compared to the volume of misses. It was a subdued Ketchel throughout. There was no tiger and no "assassin" about him to-day. He tried to shift, and even his big right swing, the one he failed with a dozen times and landed within the long run, lacked the usual snap which accompanies the Michigander's attacks. Truth to tell, there was little in the fight as it developed to encourage Ketchel. His body hooks were brushed inside, his left leads to the face fell short, of the mark, and when he made use of his threatening right swings Johnson's head drew out of range as though the champion knew to the second when one of the middle weight's best efforts was coming. All the world knows that the most damaging blow Johnson is master of is that nasty right uppercut which tears through a man's guard and (Continued on Page 8.)

One of Two Missionaries Acquitted of Libeling Belgians Is a Distinguished Colored Virginian—More Adventures Than Roosevelt—Has Stood Before Kings. By The Religious Rambler. Although acquitted by the Belgian court a few days ago of the charge of libel, the American missionaries on the Congo, Rev. W. M. Morrison, D. D., and Rev. William H. Sheppard, D. D., may again have to stand trial. The Kassai Rubber Company has appealed the case, although it is likely that the appeal is only a graceful way of getting out of the situation. The case has attracted international attention, the American Consul General on the Congo having been sent to represent this Government at the trial, while a member of the Belgian House of Representatives Hon. Emile Vanderveide, was employed as counsel for the missionaries. It was the vigorous activity of the Missionary Board at Nashville, supported by the State Department, that probably prevented an adverse decision. The event brought the two men concerned into wide prominence, although the fact that Sheppard is a Negro, and one of the most famous Americans of his race has escaped general notice. The white man in the case, Dr. Morrison, is from Lexington, Va., and has been in Africa since 1896. He was first acquitted, since his connection with the publication alleged to be libelous and merely that of a business manager. Dr. Sheppard wrote the article, which appeared in a little mission publication called "The Kassal Herald." No notice was taken of it for a year and a half, when the Kassal Rubber Company, half of the stock of which is owned by Belgian officials, took exception to it, chiefly on the technicality of the use of the word "chartered" instead of "concessionary." The charges of abuses of the natives were scarcely denied. Five years' imprisonment stared the missionaries in the face if the trial should go against them. Now that they have been vindicated by an admitted hostile count, added point is given to the charges against the Belgians for the atrocities committed upon the natives. NEGRO'S ADVENTURES IN AFRICA. Dr. Sheppard, against whom the brunt of the prosecution was directed, is the veteran of the Congo Mission of the Southern Presbyterian Church. He went out in 1890 with Rev. Samuel Laysley, son of Judge Lapsley, one of DOLLS THE NATIONAL NEGRO DOLL CO.

In view of the widespread talk of the "race question," it is interesting that this aristocratic Southern gentleman and the son of a slave went out together as work-fellows for the service of the black man in Africa; and that in all the years since there has never been any "color question" between Sheppard and his fellow missionaries.

President Roosevelt has had no such hunting adventures as befell these two missionaries as mere incidents of their work. While associating with the natives to learn the language, on one occasion they killed thirty-six hippopotami, two elephants and many crocodiles. Five times they were nearly captured by savages on the first journey to their station. Frequently, Sheppard has been in peril of his life from all manner of wild beasts, and he has more than once saved the lives of fellow missionaries. By the death of Lapsley he was left alone in the heart of Africa to represent civilization and Christianity. In the comparatively short time the mission in the Congo has been in existence (reinforced, of course by the new missionaries, both white and colored), it has built churches and schools and orphanages, and has more than 1,000 native Christians in one village alone. There are seventy-five native evangelists, supported entirely by the converts. The entire character of the community has been made over by the mission. In the volume, "Who's Who in America?" Dr. Sheppard is listed because of his eminent work abroad, and particularly because of his race leadership in this country. Southern men say that he is one of the most influential men in America, even though he is out of the country most of the time. On the platform he has extraordinary power; he is eloquent to such a degree that he moves cultivated white audiences to laughter or tears at will. When the greatest convention of undergraduate students from American institutions of higher learning that has ever assembled, met in Nashville in 1906, Dr. Sheppard made one of the most powerful addresses delivered there. What the officials of his own church think of him (and it is worthy of note that it is only a Southern church that uses Negro missionaries, in closest cooperation with white), was shown by the words in which the Secretary of Foreign Missions, Dr. S. H. Chester, introduced him to one of the most aristocratic congregations in the South. --- --- THE BALLET We Can Furnish Your Home Complete from Parlor to Kitchen.

To the President and Other Officers of Local Negro Business Leagues: Now is the time to begin making definite plans for the year's work. Certain important questions should be settled first of all: 1. Decide the question as to a definite time of meeting. Each Local League should meet at least once a month offender if possible. 2. Settle the question as to the place of meeting. Wherever possible and practicable there should be a central and permanent place of meeting which might be a kind of headquarters so fitted up that it will be comfortable, convenient and attractive for club meetings. It might answer the purposes of a Board of Trade or other commercial organization. 3. At the first meeting also outline a plan for a definite program of work for the year.

After the roll was called the camp was favored with an address by Mrs. Rosa M. Miles, of Birmingham, who is a missionary. Cake and ice were served. Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 19, 1909.—At noon to day at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. John White, Sr., Rev. T. J. Goodall, of Clarksville, Tenn., and Miss Violet Claretta White were united in ho'y wedlock. The affair was looked forward to with a deal of interest as Miss White was one of the best known young ladies in this city, and the groom a highly cultured and well-known young minister of Clarksville. The ceremony was performed by Rev. T. O. Fuller, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist Church and President of Howe College. The house, which was beautifully decorated with palms and cut flowers, was filled with friends, who had come from all parts of the state to witness the ceremony. Promptly at noon Mrs. John White, Jr., began to play Mendelssohn's wedding march, and almost instantly the bride came in REV. T. J. Pastor Fifth Ward Baptist Church ried to Miss Violet Claretta White [Name not visible] leaning on the arm of her father, then came the groom with Mr. John White, Jr., brother of the bride.

Robert Cook, 27 years, 1304 Kossock Clarksville, Tenn., Oct. 19.—The greatest social event of the year was carried out in this city to-night in a wedding banquet which was held at the Fifth Ward Baptist Church in honor of the marriage of Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor of the church, to Miss Violet White, of Memphis. The wedding party reached the L. & N. Station from Memphis at 7:50 p. m. They were met by a special committee consisting of members of the church and citizens. The bride and groom were hastily driven to their new and beautifully prepared home on First avenue, and from thence to the church. At 8:30 the main auditorium of the house was well packed with friends, relatives and visitors, who came from the different churches of the city by special invitation. Upon the arrival of the bridal party the organist played a beautiful march and the procession, led by Rev. and Mrs. Goodall, marched up the right aisle and was seated in chairs just in front of the pulpit platform. Prof. W. P. Irving. Master of ceremonies, introduced Rev. and Mrs. Goodall, the bridal party and visitors to the audience, winding up with a well-rendered address on behalf of the local committee. He then introduced Rev. Henry A. Boyd, of Nashville, a representative of the Baptist Publishing Board, who delivered address on behalf of the visitors and a high compliment to the young minister, the groom. After these preliminaries the guests repaired to the basement, where tables were spread and supper was prepared for fully three hundred guests. In the center of the house was a beautifully decorated table at which were seated the bridal party and honorary guests as follows: Rev. and Mrs. T. J. Goodall, Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Goodall, Nashville; Mrs. Mollie Snowden, Nashville; Rev. and Mrs. Henry A. Boyd, Nashville; Mrs. R. H. Boyd, Nashville; Mrs. R. Redmond, Mrs. Seymore, Mrs. Estizer Watson, Mrs. Homer Worthington, Mrs. R. Smith, Miss B. Metcalf. No toasts were offered, but grace was said and the merry friends proceeded to devour a sumptuous and well-pared supper. The banquet was prepared by the ladies of the church and their friends who have all along shown the greatest appreciation for the services rendered by Rev. Goodall. The committee consisted of such --- GOODALL:WHITE. notable workers as Mesdames Overton, Ferguson, Meriweather, Mosby, Dunlap and others, who have shown on more than one occasion that they are competent to prepare for such fetes. It was 12 o'clock when the last couple left the church for their various homes after having bade Godspeed to the happy couple. Rev. and Mrs. Goodall are at home at 411 First avenue, Clarksville. There was a large list of valuable presents received by the bride and groom. They came from many cities and various portions of the state of Tennessee, all of which attest the high esteem in which these two young people are held. FORECLOSURE SALE.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1909. VALUE OF CHICKENS The most valuable species of the poultry family is without doubt the chicken. While all fowls that are raised for the table are classed under the head of poultry, ninety-nine out of every hundred persons think only of the chicken when the word poultry is mentioned. Everybody likes chicken. Happy are those, especially that portion of the human family not burdened with the care of an abundance of this world's goods, who can sit down to a table laden with chicken fried or chicken in any style. The gravity can be as it pleases, although that asset is not to be scoffed at, but above all let the fowl be there, drumsticks, wings, gizzard and all. The colored man is accused of having a special fondness for chicken, which is all right if he will but look at the subject in the proper light. He has often been accused of taking his neighbor's chickens, which if true was a very mean thing to do. We are not, however, considering that class, but those who have a desire to utilize the opportunities in their reach. We said in the outset that of all poultry the chicken was the most valuable. One statement can prove that assertion to be true; the hen that is properly cared for will lay between two and three hundred eggs a year and then serve as a substitute for a turkey on Thanksgiving Day. No other fowl will do that. Furthermore, it costs as little, if not less, to feed a chicken than any other fowl. Any woman or a child ten years old can take care of a poultry pen. The back of a twenty-five-foot lot is sufficiently large to accommodate enough chickens to keep one person busy to looking after them. There is a demand for poultry and eggs that is continually on the increase, and it is regrettable that so few people take any interest whatever in this industry. There are scores of families in Nashville who might realize enough from a poultry pen in their back yard to pay the grocery bill and the house rent. The small farmers and truck raisers could make nice profits every year off of poultry if they would study how and put forth the effort. It would be a wise step on the part of many to kill nine-tenths of the dogs and cats and put in a stock of good poultry. Negroes in the South, we are proud to say, are taking to poultry raising. --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1909. They are making it a study. It is a common thing to find a colored man who can show a pen well stocked with choice birds. The Negro has a natural taste for the best of everything and the near future promises a production of poultry in the South that will startle the world. THE NEGRO IN POLITICS For several years the South has been enacting laws to get the Negro out of politics. Every state south of the Mason and Dixon line either has a law or is endeavoring to enact one that will in some way abridge the black man's voting privilege. But try as they may, a few Negroes continue to vote in all the states. And when these unconstitutional enactments are put into operation it is, in most cases, found to be a hindrance to about as many white as black men. The State of Alabama is having her troubles now over the operation of the new election law, and it develops that there are as many, if not more, men who are debarred from voting by the new statue who were intended to be favored by it as there are those who were intended to be affected, and it is feared by those who are opposed to the amending of the Constitution that the new law is going to be the cause of their defeat. In Maryland the Democratic party is crying for constitutional amendments that will prohibit a large number of Negroes from voting in that State. These thrusts at the black man will strengthen him if he will study the changes as they come and adapt himself to them. They are tests of the stuff he is made of. He has overcome greater obstacles than these, and we believe he will outlive every law that is enacted to deprive him of his rights. NEGRO BANKS. Negro bankers have made a great record in this country. They have gone through some of the severest money panics the States have ever known and still the failures is less than ninty per cent of the whole. Of the fifty odd banks that have been established in this country by Negroes only one has been a complete failure. 'There are two banks conducted by Negroes in this city and both of them are having great success. They are managed by men known to the people, and their methods of conducting banks are such as to maintain absolute confidence. The officials of both institutions report that their depositors are gradually increasing, and that the closing of other banks has had no effect on their business. This speaks well for the Negroes of this city; and what is true of the two banks here is also true of the banks conducted by Negroes throughout the country. MR. JOHNSON. Again Jack Johnson has proven to the people of his own country that he is the real champion heavyweight pugilist of the world. When he defeated Burns in Australia the howl was set up that the great difference in the weight of the two worked against the ex-champion, but Kaufman and Ketchel have fared no better. The Negro has an uphill road in any attempt to compete with the white man, but when he is given a fare chance he always gives a good account of himself. We love our Booker, but oh! you Arthur. The last session of the National Baptist Convention created a new board to take charge of and publish the National Baptist Union. The Union is the official organ of the Baptist denomination, and has a great field for operation. The board is composed of some of the leading men in the Baptist denomination and we predict for them great success. The press of the North is very much disturbed over a speech made by Secretary of War Dickinson in Nashville in September last. We wonder how many Negroes in this city read Mr. Dickinson's speech. It does not appear that many in this section are alarmed over his utterances. Other men from Mississippi have made speeches more drastic and yet the world has not come to end. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS The Amendment. The amendment to the constitution of Alabama is meeting with some bitter and logical attacks such as will work much to its defeat. The Negroes must be extremely careful in voting on this amendment, remembering the past history of the constitution when we were deprived of our civil and human rights. Prohibition when properly had will do much for the betterment of all the people, but this Fuller bill as approved by Judge Weakley, will do nothing but harm to the people. It is nothing more nor less than a method to enslave the common people of both races by the rich and political fee-grafters.—Birmingham Reporter. *** If we were to take lessons from the Jews and preach and practice loyalty among ourselves our progress would be marked by an hundredfold. It was quite noticeable a few days ago liciting trade for one of the largest business houses in the city because it had been purchased a few days before by one of the members of their race.—Advocate Verdict. ** ** Some weeks ago popular rumor had it that a baby born somewhere in Texas, had predicted that there would be no more rain in five years. Having delivered its message, the infant had the decency to die at once. It has been raining since then—all of which proves the truth of the saying that thep erson who tries to predict Texas weather is either a fool or a new-comer. The baby, of course, was a new-comer.—Dallas Express. --- Disfranchisement in Philadelphia. Disfranchisement of the Afro-American does not obtain alone in the South, but here in the very shadow of Independence Hall in the great city of Philadelphia. The only difference between the North and South—in the South the Afro-American, wherever he has been denied the right of franchise, has been done legally; in the North, for instance Philadelphia, the great majority of the Afro-Americans have been and are now being disfranchised illegally by the contractor-boss rule that controls and rules Philadelphia, and we might add parenthetically, thousands of white men are disfranchised also, for the reason they have for years and are to-day blindly following the political machine of corruptionists that has held Philadelphia in its grasp for, lo! these many years. So what is the difference whether the Afro-American lives North or South, when it comes to voting, unless he exercises his rights and prerogatives in Philadelphia in voting against such a combination that holds this city with its grasp so firmly. He just as well not have any vote if that v te is debauched, bargained and trafficked, just like so much merchandise, and that is the case when he allows the contractor-bosses to dictate how he shall vote. The Afro-American must now begin to think for himself and not be led around like so many sheep. We have an alternative to change conditions if we will, by supporting D. Clarence Gibboney, who typifies all that is noble, honest and best in the political future life of Philadelphia.—Philadelphia Courant. What You Can Do. In our fight to defeat the amendment each member of the race has something to do. Let none feel that he or she is out of the fight. It may may be, and it is more than likely that there are many men who are not interested in the matter one way or another because they have not been brought face to face with the enormity of the calamity which would befall the race were the amendment to pass. In cases of that kind you can wake those men up by telling them what to do. It will not be amiss for you to keep a copy of the amendment in your pocket and read and explain it to our people, on the street cars, street corners, barber shops or anywhere else you happen to find men who are not alive to the situation. It will not be amiss to impress upon our men, that should the amendment pass, the next step will be to cut down the school term so that our boys and girls will have but small opportunity to educate themselves, and so reduce the literary opportunities of the race that we would in future fall to secure the ballot on a straight educational test.—Afro-American Ledger.

There are at least twenty-five thousand Negro voters in Greater New York. The Republican party or fusion party is going to make a bid for these votes. We want to ask, however, what the Republican or fusion party, or reform party, or whatever its name may be, has ever done for Negro voters in New York City in the way of official recognition. Tammany Hall keeps scores of Negroes in important positions. If the fusionists or Republicans get in, what will they do for the Negro? We stand for good clean government above all things. But even good clean government takes with it recognition in the way of offices.—The New York Age. THE OUTCAST'S DAUGHTER THE OUTCAST'S DAUGHTER. That thrilling Drama, The Outcast's daughter, will be played to-night at Walden University, has been mistaken for "Out in the Streets," so successfully rendered some time ago by another company; by a number of people who are not careful in reading or investigation. The dramas are entirely different, in plot, plan, people and rendition. There is nothing similar, except the syllable "Out," still the confusion has occurred. The Outcast's Daughter is founded on the history of a vain young woman who, after marrying at an early age, discovers that she is possessed of an extraordinary voice, becomes famous as a singer, deserts her husband and infant child and after triumph upon triumph on the stage, finds herself longing for her child and husband whom she deserted. The husband has had a wretched experience; the daughter had grown up, married and become the mother of a child, and a widow engaged as a bookkeeper, who disowns and denounces the truant mother, secures thel liberation of her father and marries a man of wealth and position. The heroine is Miss Fannie M. Banks. Prof. F. A. Randals represents Mr. Ross, who owns the Factory, in which a number of girls are employed who are jealous of The Bookkeeper, whom Mr. Ross marries. Mrs. J. E. Miller portrays the character of the Singer, Miss Hattie E. Caruthers convulses the audience, as Mrs. Wilmuth, the German fostermother of the heroine of the play. Mr. R. D. Dobson acts the part of Dennis, the Irish Servant; Mr. Wm. Foster is the Gardener; Misses Lillian Banks, Clara and Hattie Hodgkin the jealous factory girls; Master Thurston Lewis is the infant son of the heroine; Dr. J. P. Crawford tries Carl Faber, the husband of the singer and father of Mrs. Stearn, while Messrs Samuel L. Carter, Mercer Lewis and J. E. B. Miller are officers of the Court, and Mr. A. N. Johnson portrays the character of "The Outcast" husband of the singer and father of Mrs. Stearn. Thus it will be readily seen that some of Nashville's best talent is employed. The proceeds will be for the benefit of the George W. Hubbard Hospital Fund. Admission is 15 cents for one and Tickets good for two, at 25 cents. TOM THUMB WEDDING To the delight of an appreciative audience which gathered at the First Baptist Church last Monday night the Tom Thumb wedding was repeated. It was given for the benefit of some of the clubs of the church. The pastor and members of the clubs who gave the wedding report a financial success, that is, they were able to realize a few dollars above expenses. TOM THUMB WEDDING. Mrs. James Johnson, of 318 Eighth avenue, North, delightfully entertained Miss Eliza Fladdox, of Indianapolis. Games were the feature of the evening. At a late hour a two-course menu was served. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. James Foster, Mrs. Louise M. McHoward, Mr. Frank Turner. To the Nashville Globe; There are men who will succeed despite fate—they move forward over obstacles and present to contending forces a sufficient amount of energy to overcome and subdue opposition. Their determination is of iron and they press on toward the goal of their ambition with an irresistibility that conquers untoward circumstances and puts to flight the enemies of their progress. Men who look opposition in the face with a steady eye that means that their sword will never be sheathed until it surrenders, and that unconditionally, are the men who keep but little noise, but they are eventually heard from. Pigmy opposition will ever raise its puny head, but its fate is the fate of its kind, it must inevitably go to the wall. Where there is a will there is a way, and that means where there is a fixed determination and corresponding action thereto, there is no earthly power to prevent victory. Have a fight worthy of your steel, and then fight. This is the kind of determination that lays low the evil geniuses that stalk in the shadows to do their dark work in killing worthy men. Every man should fortify himself against the arrows shot from the bow of Giant Opposition by ever having with him the shield of Determination. MURFREESBORO MINISTERS. The colored ministers of Murfreesboro held a meeting in the First Baptist Church Tuesday, October 12th, for the purpose of considering the question of the reorganization of the Ministerial Alliance. The meeting was called by the Rev. Mr. W. T. Green, the present pastor, formerly of Keokuk, Iowa. After discussions and suggestions by the brethren present, a committee on nomination of officers and constitution for permanent organization was appointed by the chairman pro tem, Rev. W. T. Green, and the meeting adjourned until the following Tuesday, the 19th instant, at which time organization was perfected with the following officers: President, Rev. W. T. Green; Vice President, Rev. M. J. Jackson; Secretary, Rev. P. A. Bedford; Treasurer, Rev. W. W. Todd; Reporter, Rev. J. W. Butler. The regular sessions of the Alliance will be held twice per month, the first and third Mondays.

Church convened at St. Eli on Saturday, October 16, 1909, at 11:30 o'clock. The meeting was opened with a song and prayer by Mr. Beasley, after which Rev. Martin-Slater delivered a wonderful sermon. The meeting was continued Saturday night. Two sermons were preached on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock, the first being delivered by Rev. Martin Slater and the last by Rev. R. Estleman. The meeting was also continued over Sunday night and again on Monday morning at 11 o'clock and adjourned on Monday night, October 18, 1909. It was a glorious meeting and a grand success. Deacon RHV.

On Sunday morning last the students and friends of Meharry were delightfully blessed with a masterful discourse by the Right Rev. Bishop Maybe that Headache is caused by defective eyesight or badly adjusted Better See C. V. ROMAN, Ph. D., M., Oculist and Aurist Nashville Tennessee, THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1909 Evans Tyree, who took as his text the 17th and 18th verses of the 1390th Psalm. The Bishop in his characteristic manner impressed his hearts forcibly, who, in spite of the inclementy of the weather turned out in guished divine. Rev. S. Jackson, of the Presbyterian Church, delivered the third lecture to the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday afternoon, using as his theme "The Strong Man Armed." This added to the blessing which started in the morning, thus we were doubly blessed. Miss Elnora Well, M. D., of the class of 1905, who is now practicing her profession at Dallas, Texas, has recently sent a subscription of $5.00 to the new Hospital Fund. Mr. W. H.

Dr. Grey, who is Instructor in Medical Chemistry at Meharry Medical College, is a graduate of the class of 1908, having had his preparation for the study of medicine at Claflin University, S. C., and Northwestern University, Chicago, finishing from the latter with the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy. The Freshman Dental Class, having reached the number of 41, is the largest class of that department in the history of the school. PLEA FOR THE NEWSPAPER When we consider that Hudson did not discover New York Bay, but that Verrazzano did; when we consider that Fulton did not discover the steamboat, but that Fitch did; when we consider that Bell did not invent the telephone, that Morse did not invent the telegraph, that Gutenberg did not invent the printing press, that Morton did not discover anaesthesia, that Darwin did not discover evolution, that Shakespeare did not write "Hamlet," that Homer did not write the "Iliad," that Galileo did not say, "And it still moves, that Wellington did not say, "Up Guards and at them," that Washington did not win the battles of the revolution, that Robespierre did not create the reign of terror, that Nero was not a monster, that Cleopatra was not beautiful—when we reflect that history is emblazoned with the titles of usurpers and that true merit lies unchronicled in the grave, let us address a word or two of apology to that much berated enemy of the truth, the newspaper. If history, with a thousand years' leisure at her disposal, cannot find out just who set up a new throne or pulled down an old one, let us forgive the reporter if he misspells the Christian name of the prominent citizen who was thrown from his automobile at 2:30 a.m.—New York Evening Post. RETURNS TO THE CITY. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hamilton and son, John, have returned home from Gary, Ind., where they have been residing for some time.

After a lengthy illness covering a period of nearly eighteen months, during which time the greatest vitality, will power and endurance were exhibited, Mr. George B. Jackson, one of the first and best known Negro attorneys of this city, died Thursday morning at his home on Morena street. Mr. Jackson was afflicted with that most dreaded of all diseases, tuberculosis, and although much money was spent and the best medical skill employed to fight the ravages of the disease, it continued its encroachment upon his frame with alarming rapidity.

There are several communities in the State in which there is some one who is kind enough to send us the news each week. We thank them for this kindness. But has it ever occurred to you that it is just as easy to get subscriptions as it is to get news? Well, if you have not thought along that line we beg your attention for a minute. We want the news from every community each week, but we will not need it unless there are people in that community who are de irous of reading the news that tells what they are doing. We know that when people have news put in the paper about themselves they want to read it after it is put in the paper, and they would rather pay their money to the reporter than any one else, because they know he is the one who will look after the news about them. We must have an agent in every city, town and community in this State. To accomplish this we have decided that every correspondent must be an agent. So hereafter each one sending news must also send subscribers for the Globe. We have the names of a number of persons whose subscriptions will soon expire. Any one desiring to become an agent and correspondent, write us at once and we will send you a list to work by. All delinquent subscribers are being dropped from our list, which makes it a very opportune time to begin. Write at once to the NASHVILLE GLOBE, Nashville, Tenn. CLARKSVILLE NOTES.

Letting the crown represent the character as a priceless gem, he spoke in glowing terms of the value of woman in the uplift of fallen humanity. Showing woman dissimilar in nature, but not unequal in power. He divided life into infancy, youth and womanhood.

The citizens of Nashville were shocked this week at the startling news of two deaths not three days apart of two of its old, leading and well respected citizens. It is said that both of them dropped dead in a manner. While the first to pass away really died at home, he had been in the best of health. It was Mr. Jack White, who had been in the employ of the Nashville evening Banner for nearly a score of years. He had, by his unusual attention and perfect service, endeared himself to the entire management of the leading afternoon paper in the state of Tennessee. He was in the best of health last week and worked up to Saturday evening at a late hour, as he was fireman of the Banner force and his duties kept him very late after the Saturday edition of the paper. Sunday morning while alling it was nothing serious. Monday morning early he became ill and finally expired at six o'clock, about his time for going to work. The entire neighborhood in the vicinity of his home on Jo Johnston avenue was startled by the news of his sudden death. The management of the Nashville Banner expressed its deep sympathy. The funeral services were held and the interment was made at Greenwood Cemetery. On Wednesday morning Mr. Wm. Nichols, a barber who has been for some time at the shop of Mr. Burrell Hendry, on Church street, dropped dead. Mr. Nichols had not been reported as ill and his death was the greatest shock of recent happenings. He had a host of friends and was admired throughout the city. He was attractive especially because of his smallness of statue. His death is pronounced by the physician as having been caused by heart failure. Early Wednesday afternoon it could not be learned what arrangements were being made for the funeral, but it will probably be held Thursday or Friday. Mr. Nichols had a number of relatives, hence his loss is mourned generally. WOULD NOT HUNT HORSE THIEF. Recently a horse and buggy were stolen from a man of this city. It develops that the man had taken his family out to Greenwood park for the purpose of enjoying the beauties of the excellent grounds. While they were there some one drove the rig out of the park and the man who owned the rig looked around for two hours without finding the parties or the horse and buggy, but found two county officers and reported to them that his rig had been stolen. It, was a very fine horse and buggy, so he asked the officers to take the matter in hand, as he could not notify the chief of police as there was no phone at the park, and the park is out of the city limits. These officers said they were sorry, and advised him to rush to the city and call up the chief of police, at the same time, however, they expressed a belief that the culprits had no doubt gone to the next near-by town and would, no doubt, dispose of the rig or drive the horse to death, yet neither of the officers made one step toward looking up those who had taken the outfit. They are said to have walked away unconcerned and without even asking the name and address of the owner of the rig or getting an accurate description of the same. The owner of the horse and buggy searched until 11 o'clock p. m. and finally made his way to the city with his family without being able to get any reliable information as to where his horse had gone. Later on it is said that these same efficient county officers had heard of a crap game about three miles away and at BANK DIRECTORY. There are thirty-seven Negro banks business in the United States.

Chicago.—Suffering from a broken leg caused while sliding into third base, Joe Green, center fielder for the celebrated Leland Giants, the Negro team which the Chicago Cubs were playing last week, hopped to the home plate in the eighth inning. His attempt to score, however, was in vain, for he was met three feet from the plate by Pat Moran, the ball having been relayed back to the Cubs' catcher after he had made a wild throw over third out to the left field. The exhibition of Green was as game as anything ever seen on a ball field. He was lifted from the ground after he had fallen at third base, and when started for home by the coach, he made the best speed possible on his one good leg. When he reached the plate he again dropped to the ground and was carried from the lot, but his admirers are many, for he showed on more than one occasion that he is in a class alone. This put two of the Giants' best players out of the game, as Rube Foster is suffering with a broken leg also. The management of the Athletic Association of Fisk University announce that the proposed game between the State University of Kentucky and Fisk University, that was to have been played Oct. 30th on Bennett Field has been called off, at least for the time being. Just what brought about this turn of affairs could not be learned. There were various statements made on the campus and about the city, but the officials of the association were reluctant in making any statement for publication, save that the game had been postponed. This will be disappointing to many, as a large number of the lovers of this sport had planned for a big time on that day. The ball season is on, and a number of games, high class in every respect will be played during this and next month. --- --- 88 I NO FOOTBALL. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1909. Guarantee. MEHARRY WINS PEARL HIGH GETTING READY FOR JUMNER. On last Saturday the Meharry football club twisted the tail of the Tigers from Pearl High School and defeated them by a score of ten to nothing. It was an uphill fight every inch of the way and the end of the game found the plucky little team from Pearl fighting as hard as though they had not been scored against. The team on the whole showed better form in all departments of the game than they displayed in the Fisk game, and the coach is working hard to round them for their big game. On November 6th the Sumner High School Team, of St. Louis, Mo., will meet Pearl in Nashville. This will be the most important game that has ever occurred in the city between preparatory school foot-ball teams. Sumner has one of the best, if not the best team of its class in the country. The game which they will play against the boys from Pearl High will be worth travelling miles to witness. When these two teams met last Sumner won by twelve to nothing, and Pearl desires to wipe out this defeat by beating them signally and thereby take the championship of the country for preparatory schools. Sumner usually has a heavy team which is fast, however, and well coached. If reports are true this year's team will be no exception. The people of Nashville should turn out to see this game, as Missouri will send the best she has to down the Tennesseans, and if every one will work as hard as the boys of Pearl, the Westerners will be defeated. The Pearl High team is Nashville's product and should receive the encouragement of every citizen of this city. Let every body get ready to give a long pull for the boys on November 6th. Get your cherry and white colors ready to display so that the invaders will at once see that they are playing against all Nashville. The Globe will tell something about the work of the team and the boys who compose it in the next issue. THE OULD DEESTRICK SKULE. All the arrangements for "The Ould Deestrick Skule," which will be presented at the First Baptist Church next Friday night, October 29, have been completed and the managers are highly pleased with the re- OUR CONCERT LIBRARY.

Last year the company played to a packed house and many were turned away for lack of standing room. It is at the earnest request of many that this repetition takes place. Each member of the caste, from the "Skule-Master" to the smallest member of the A. B. C. class is a star. The scene is that of a rural schoolhouse of fifty years ago, and from the opening song to the closing speech of the head-committeeman the audience will be treated with a round of mirthful pleasures. The personnel is very attractive. * NOTICE. The Nashville Globe is constantly receiving lengthy obituaries from its many readers.

(Continued from Page 1.) thing in reserve to-day until the seventh round, and even then he only used it a few times. It may be, of course, that he felt he could do without it and wanted to be as merciful as possible, but taking the whole thing into consideration the writer never saw the Johnson uppercut so little in evidence. LITTLE OF EVERYTHING. It is doubtful at that if Johnson ever gave us a fight in which he was seen in better variety. He showed us a little of everything and it was all gilt-edge. Poor Ketchel must have forgotten at times that it was his mission in life to-day to force Johnson to lead. This because, when Johnson, on occasions took to feint, as only Johnson can feint, Ketchel would begin whipping his gloves to and fro sideways and blinking as though punches were coming from he knew not where. In boxing Ketchel was thoroughly outclassed, and before two rounds had gone by it was evident that his one hope rested in being able to land just one swing. When Johnson held out his two hands as he did in the affair with Kaufman and Ketchel swung at his body, the lighter man's gloves fell a full foot short of the mark. When Johnson holds a man at bay in this manner the champion's arms seem to be as long as oars. In the clinch fighting again Ketchel discovered that Johnson knows more in one round than the average fighter learns in a career. Without actually taking a grip of a hand or arm, Johnson placed his gloves against Ketchel's biceps or shoulders and used pressure which rendered Ketchel as helpless as though he were tied with ropes. Ketchel as a rule is away above the age at clinch-fighting, but to-day he was powerless. He wasn't pinioned exactly, and yet he couldn't free his fighting machinery, and all the time Johnson was looking down into the little man's face and chuckling divisively. There were other things about those clinches. They gave an idea of Johnson's immense strength as well. Several times he lifted Ketchel playfully off his feet and slung loosens his teeth. Johnson kept that him around. Once when Ketchel's --- legs became entangled when the men were grappling. Johnson picked Kechel up with one arm, and placed him squarely on his feet. Johnson has always assured his friends that Jeffries' strength has no terrors for him. After watching the champion closely in his recent fight, it seems to me that even big-framed Jeffries will not be able to take any liberties with Johnson when they lock arms and begin to pull and haul. WHAT MEN SAY. In his dressing-room after the fight, Johnson said: "He is a good puncher and a strong man. I must say that he has given me a sorer chin than I ever had before," and he rubbed his swollen jaws reflectively. "He can take some heavy blows," continued the champion. "See here," and he showed one of his gloves solder with Ketchel's blood. There were several cuts on the leather. "That's where I uppercut him in the mouth," said Johnson. Ketchel said after he recovered that a chance blow had finished him. "I am in a better condition than Johnson now," he said. "Look at him. He is dead. For that one blow I would have beaten him." The fight attracted the greatest crowd in years. Over 10,000 persons were ranked about the walls and overflowed the seats. Fully 3,000 were turned away. Promoter Coffroth stated after the fight that $40,000 had been taken in. WEDDING OF PROMINENT COL ORED CITIZENS. T. G.
