THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. V. OPENING OF THE HELPING HAND VARIETY STORE. Was Celebrated Tuesday Night at St. Paul. NEW ENTERPRISE ESTABLISHED FOR AID OF SUFFERING POOR AMONG NEGRO RACE IN THE CITY OF NASHVILLE—REPRESENTATIVE MEN AND WOMEN FROM ALL PARTS OF THE CITY PRESENT — PROMINENT BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN MAKE SHORT BUT POINTED SPEECHES—SUBSCRIPTION LIST GROWS TO UNUSUAL FIGURE The formal opening of the Helping Hand Variety Store was celebrated at St. Paul A. M. E. Church on Tuesday night. The exercises were opened with singing. Prayer was offered by Rev. Johnson, pastor of Clark Memorial Chapel. After prayer the congregation joined in singing "What a friend we have in Jesus." Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, the originator of the plan, said in a way of introductory that he was glad to see so many of the people out to witness the formal opening of the new enterprise. He said the opening of this store is the realization of a long-standing dream of his and he felt highly complimented to have so many of the leading business men of the city who have turned away from their business and joined the launching of this enterprise. He said that the men present represented the highest type of manhood. He stated the object of the meeting fully. Among other things, he said that the object was that man might help man; that the suffering of the poor might be alleviated. He said that he had recently visited the Mayor and that he expressed himself as being fully in accord with the movement, and assured him that as long as he was Mayor he would see to it that the colored people of Nashville should have a square deal. He further stated the project originated in his church, but the public was not barred and were invited to come in and take a part. Dr. Brooks stated that Mayor Howse had given a horse, and that the store would be designated by the city as a Southern distributing point, and would send such things as would be sent out to be distributed among the poor. Dr. Preston Taylor was introduced. He said he had been thinking and trying to bring to mind some incident similar to the incident of the occasion. He compared the new store to Tremont Hall, Boston, Mass., where everything wanted could be had. He said the man who worked for the uplift of the people would succeed. He cited several instances where Negroes have started business on a small scale and had carried the same to great success. He said colored people were great on waiting to see what the outcome will be. "But do you know," he said, "that anything will die unless you patronize it?" The next speaker introduced was Dr. R. F. Boyd. Dr. Brooks said that it was the plan that Dr. Boyd be master of ceremonies. He said Dr. Boyd was a very cute bachelor and introduced him as master of ceremonies. He stated that he was late owing to having been called to serve a little girl who was burned severely. He said that the Negroes of Nashville had no charitable center and the fact was to be regretted. He said that the Negroes of Nashville needed to learn to be charitable toward the unfortunates who were as thoughtless as the grasshopper, who would hop the time away when the sun is hot. Dr. J. H. Hale was the next speaker. He said that he feed that enough had been said, but he did not know how to fail, and as certain as the people of Nashville continue to eat so certain would he look for the store to succeed. He said that there was a great deal of suffering among the Negroes of Nashville and they need the aid of those who can help them. Hon. J. C Napier was the next speaker. He said Dr. Brooks had attempted to introduce each gentleman, but had not introduced himself. He said he had recently had occasion to NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910. JUDGE LURTON ON FISK BOARD OF TRUST. President George A. Gates, of Fisk University, has returned from New York, where he went to attend the Board of Trustees and to look after other important matters in connection with the university. He gave out the following last night in regard to the proposed improvements for Fisk University, the plans of which were drawn here and presented to the board by him for the board's inspection at the recent meeting: "In addition to the central heating and light plant to be installed, the cost of which will be about $50,000, a new fence, which is very badly needed, will be built around the entire grounds of the university. The plans were adopted by the board and a committee appointed to take up the matter of having the improvements made as soon as practicable. "Naturally, I am highly pleased at the favorable action taken by the Board of Trustees on the matter, and aside from the cutting down of considerable expense in heating and lighting the several buildings, the new acquisition will be much more satisfactory." President Gates said that several new members were elected to the Board of Trustees of the university at the meeting just held, among them being Judge Horace H. Lurton, but on account of the Supreme Justice's exceedingly busy life, it was feared he would be unable to accept. "I stopped over in Washington on my return to Nashville, where I had a conversation with Justice Lurton in regard to his acceptance of the trust, and, while he assured me he was deeply interested in our work at Fisk, he stated that unless he found that he would be able to attend the meetings and to perform active service on the Board of Trustees, he would not like to accept the trust urged upon him. The trustees are hopeful however, that he may be able to serve as one of their number." MRS. JACKSON DIES Mrs. Ida Jackson, of South Nashville, died early Thursday morning, after a lingering illness of several months. Mrs. Jackson was born and reared in Nashville and was married to Mr. W. Jackson, who survives her, about ten years ago. She leaves two little girls, Hazel and Mary, four sisters, Mrs. R. L. King, Misses Rosa, Beulah and Ella Wilson, three brothers, William, Johnnie and Charlie. The funeral arrangements have not been completed at the time of going to press. visit sections of the country where Dr. Brooks is known and his reputation was a number one. He said the store, if conducted on a cash basis, would be bound to succeed. He cited a case where a Jew talked to a man until he made him believe that a suit of clothes fitted him and made a sale, but that the man learned that the reason he was not pleased with the clothes they did not fit him after they got wet, was because there was no one to talk it. He admonished his hearers to talk up the store and make it succeed. Mr. A. N. Johnson was the next speaker. He said that he would say a few words along business lines. The Negro, he said, will stick to you if you will deliver the goods. The people are not going to patronize you because you are a Negro. They are not going to buy your stuff if there are green files on it. They are not going to buy unless you can give as much as they can get anywhere else. Dr. H. T. Johnson was the next speaker. He spoke on confidence. He said unless confidence could be established there could be no hope of success. He made a strong plea for a united effort in behalf of the new enterprise. At the conclusion of the speaking the chairman solicited subscriptions from all present, and the people pledged themselves to take stock in amounts ranging from $1 to $5. Every speaker of the evening closed his remarks with a $5 subscription, which made the success of the enterprise look like a certainty. Previous to the adjournment of the exercises a constant stream of interested people were going through the store inspecting the stock which consisted of a full line of the best groceries that can be found on the market. The spirit exhibited at the opening of the poor people's store was indicative of the feeling existing in this city toward the more unfortunate, who are in need of help, and vouchsafes the statement that much suffering will be alleviated through the committee of management. NEW YORK CITY NEXT MEETING PLACE OF BUSINESS LEAGUE. Negro will Gather in the Metropolis in August. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETS AND OUTLINES PROGRAM FOR THIS YEAR'S SESSION—DELIBERATIONS HELD IN PARLORS OF CARNEGIE HALL—PROMINENT MEN FROM ALL PARTS OF COUNTRY PRESENT—MR. J. C. NAPIER, OF NASHVILLE, MEMBER OF COMMITTEE—HARMONY PREVAILS THROUGHOUT THE PROCEEDINGS. "New York captured the 1910 session of the National Negro Business League by a splendid majority. Notwithstanding Boston put up a stubborn fight, the metropolis was the easy winner," says the Hon. J. C. Napier upon his arrival from New York this week, in talking to a Globe reporter on the meeting of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League which met last week in the parlors of the Carnegie Hall, New York City. Mr Napier, Chairman of the meeting, reports that it was the most important session of the Executive Committee held in a number of years, as there were some new recommendations and features in these that are calculated to improve the efforts of the Business League and stimulate Negro business enterprises throughout the country. The League will meet in the metropolis August 6-9. Practically the entire Executive Committee was present consisting of the following: J. C. Napier, Nashville, Tenn, chairman; Dr. S. E. Courtney, Boston, Mass.; M. M. Lewey, Pensacola, Fla.; F. D. Patterson, Greenfield, O.; J. E. Bush, Little Rock, Ark.; Dr. S. A. Furniss, Indianapolis, Ind.; E. P. Booze, Colorado Springs, Col.; W. F. Andrews, Sumter, S. C.; Dr. W. L. Taylor, Richmond, Va.; J. B. Bell, Houston, Tex.; J. C. Thomas, New York City, and Dr. Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., president, ex-officio; Charles Banks, Mound Bayou, Miss., first vice-president; Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee Institute, corresponding secretary, and Gilbert C. Harris, Boston, Mass., treasurer. Tennessee's only member held the most exalted position. "The new feature that was endorsed by the Executive Board in connection with the Negro Business League," said Mr. Napier, "was the establishment of a Statistical Department of Bureau. Its headquarters for the present will be located at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., under the supervision of the Recording Secretary, Emmett J. Scott, possibly assisted by the National Organizer, Mr. C. H. Moore. This new department, according to the chairman, will devote its energy and direct its interest to finding out the name, location and amount of capital invested by every Negro business enterprise in the United States. Regular literature and blanks are to be mailed out upon which this information can be returned accurately." Tennessee's interest was looked after by Mr. Napier as usual. He further reports that he had the pleasure of being in New York when Bishop I. B. Scott, of this city, sailed for Africa going by way of Liverpool, England. In company and on the same ship were Bishop Alexander Walters, of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, and Mr. Phillip Peyton, a wealthy real estate dealer and attorney-at-law, of New York. He says that the most rousing demonstration ever witnessed by departing missionaries occurred on the eve of their departure. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. "The Public Dance Hall" was the topic of discussion last Sunday evening at the meeting. The dance hall and its effects were considered from every viewpoint, and the general conclusion was that public dance halls are harmful to any community in which they are located. The Association was not able to seat the large number who attended the meeting. THE MISSISSIPPI BENEFICIAL INSURANCE COMPANY MEETS IN ANNUAL SESSION. On January 21, 1910, and at an hour different to that of the meeting of the directors of the Delta Penny Savings Bank, the officers and several of the prominent directors of the Mississippi Beneficial Insurance Company met in annual session at the home office, located in this city. The following were present: Dr. W. A. Attaway, President and Business Manager; Dr. H. W. Nichols, of Clarksdale, First Vice President; Dr. J. E. Walker, Indianola, Second Vice President; Hon. W. W. Cox, Secretary and Treasurer; also the following directors: Hon. Chas. Banks, Mound Bayou; Dr. W. P. Kyle, Arcola; Mr. J. H. Richey, Friar's Point; Rev. Z. E. McGee, Moorhear; C. C. Johnson, Indianola; Wm. Peyton, Falson; M. B. Burnett and T. S. Crawford. This corporation opened its doors for business May 10, 1909, and the report of the Treasurer, W. W. Cox, was most gratifying, this being the first trial of a Mississippi chartered Negro Insurance company. The report showed that from May 10, 1909, to January 1, 1910, there had been collected from all sources by the company $11,677.49, their legitimate sick and death claims had been paid off and the company had on hand a nice cash balance. The company has a paid up capital of $25,000, the money deposited with the State Treasury at Jackson, Miss. It is the only old line Negro Life Insurance Company in actual operation in the United States. The management was authorized to raise the capital stock to $100,000. WILHOYT-DOUGLASS. The marriage of Mrs. Nora Douglass and Mr. William Wilhoyt was celebrated at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mansfield Douglass, of 1805 1-2 State street. The bride joined the groom and came into the parlor by the strains of the wedding march played by Mr. Mansfield Douglass, Jr. After the wedding ceremony the guests were served with an ice course. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Wilhoyt, Mr. and Mrs. Haywood, Mr. and Mrs. Whittaker, Mr. and Mrs. Wingfield, Mr. and Mrs. Elijal Douglass, Mr. and Mrs. Mansfield Douglass, Mrs. Celia Patterson, Mrs. John Cheatham, Mrs. Sallie Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Wray, Mr. and Mrs. Rob Norwood, Mr. Lewis Watson, Mr. William Foster, Mr. West Epsom, Miss Willie McCline, Mr. Mac McCline, Mr. Jim Wilhoyt, Mr. Doc Watkins, Mr. Solomon Robertson, Miss Anna Robertson, Mr. Allen Nixon, Miss Frances Johnson, Miss Leutischa Kirby, Miss Mollie Snowden, Mr. Mansfield Douglass, Jr., Miss Calle Landers, Miss Sadie Wilson. Rev. Harding performed the marriage ceremony. As the bride was leaving the parlor rice was thrown upon her and everybody wished her a long and useful life. FIVE THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND FOR NEGROES. There have been two important meetings held at the One-Cent Savings Bank within the past ten days to take under consideration a proposition offered by a prominent real estate dealer in this city, in which he purposes to transfer to a syndicate or a stock company which is being formed, five thousand acres of the very best bituminous coal land located in Cumberland County, at Johnson's stand. The property is just one hundred and twenty miles east of Nashville. It is said that the tract contains sufficient timber for all mining purposes and an abundance of the best and purest mountain springs and creeks. It is about twenty-two hundred feet above the sea level. It is further stated that the property is in the heart of the Cumberland plateau coal belt. The Tennessee Central Railroad runs past the property, while the N., C. & St. L. Railroad is in close proximity. The tract of land embraces more than eight miles. The real estate man declared that a more alluring proposition has never been offered for their consideration. A meeting was called to discuss this matter Tuesday night, but nothing definite materialized on account of the other special meetings already under way. It is supposed that early next week another attempt will be made to organize and take over this splendid lot of property, either to utilize for mining purposes or to sell in city lots and farms. No. 5. COMMITTEE OF NINE COMING TO NASHVILLE ON THE EIGHTH. Will Investigate Baptist Institution. THEIR BOARDS LOCATED HERE DOING BUSINESS FOR THE NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION —PUBLSHING BOARD, BAPTIST YOUNG PEOPLE'S UNION BOARD AND EDUCATIONAL BOARD WILL BE INVESTIGATED---PUBLISHING BOARD LARGEST PRINTING PLANT CONDUCTED BY NEGROES—GREAT PRIDE OF BAPTIST DENOMINATION. It was learned this week that on Feb. 8th nine prominent and highly connected Baptist Ministers, laymen and professional men will reach Nashville. Their mission, it is said, will be in accordance with an order or resolution which passed the last session of the National Baptist Convention at Columbus providing for the appointment of a committee of nine to investigate the holdings of all the property of the National Baptist Convention in the possession of its boards. An inquiry among leading Baptists of the city shows that the National Baptist Convention, unlike most religious bodies, is made up of seven different boards which, during the recess of the convention, regulate and manage its affairs. Three of these boards are supposed to be located in Nashville, namely: the Publishing Board, the B. Y. B. U. Board and the Educational Board. Thus the committee in taking up its work in the city will look closely into the holdings of these boards and ascertain just what interest the National Baptist Convention has in the city of Nashville. The committee, it is said, will go from here to Louisville, Ky., where it will further investigate the Foreign Mission Board and the Woman's Auxiliary Board. It is then supposed to proceed to Little Rock Ark., where the Home Mission Board has its headquarters; from Little Rock to Helena, which is looked upon as the headquarters of the National Benefit Board and the Executive Board. Those composing the personnel of this committee are as follows: Rev. E. J. Fisher, D. D., of Chicago, Chairman; C. T. Stamps, D. D., Secretary, Edwards, Miss.; A. Barber, D. D., Galveston, Tex.; C. T. Walker, D. D., Augusta, Ga.; George E. Stephens, St. Louis, Mo.; J. H. Eason, D. D., Anniston, Ala.; M. W. Gilbert, New York; G. B. Howard, Petersburg, Va., and Wm. Harrison, Attorney-at-law, Oklahoma, Okla. It is generally expected that the committee will reach Nashville Tuesday morning, as the order of the convention provides that they open session at 10 o'clock. Since the National Baptist Publishing Board has reported larger holdings, more property and a greater volume of work, it is conceded that the committee's first efforts and work will be directed toward the Publishing Board, which Board, through the splendid management of Dr. R. H. Boyd, who has the distinction also of being Secretary of the Home Mission Board with headquarters at Little Rock, is the pride of the denomination, and leads all Negro publishing plants in the world. Dr. Boyd, when asked about the Investigating Committee, said that it was only in keeping with the policy of the National Baptist Convention to look into its holdings from time to time, and that an auditor comes annually anyway to audit the accounts of his Board. ETERTAINS Master Edward Nelson entertained a few of his friends last Friday evening. Those present were Misses Mattie Allan, Johnetta White, Cora L. Campbell, Jeanetta Hatcher, Limuel Cabble, Loise Johnson, Rosa Woodfolk, Messrs. Eugene Evans, Felix Harding, Samuel Love, Thomas Stocker, John B. Stocker, D. R. Murray, Monroe Johnson, James William. Mr. George Lee furnished music for the occasion. At 9:30 a very dainty three-course menu was served. 2 NATIONAL BAPTIST REVIEW A Religious Weekly Journal Of Special Interest to Pastors and Superintendents, Fills a Long-felt Want.

The following resolutions were adopted by the pupils of the Hadley Night School, on January 27, 1910, following an address by Dr. Lees; Education is the foundation of all true individual progress, the basis of social order, and the mainspring of civilization. Education of the hand, heart and head must forever underlie good citizenship, public and private virtue, and lead the way to the recognition of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Right education is the panacea for all social evils and all problems, local, national and foreign. We owe a debt of gratitude to all men and women everywhere who have fostered education, and helped to bring its benefits to our race. We feel deeply appreciative of that generous spirit in the Board of Education of Nashville that has prompted them to provide schools and facilities whereby the humblest child of our race may be enlightened and trained. We deeply appreciate the establishment and maintenance of the Hadley Night School, where the working men and women may receive such training as will better fit them for the various duties of their stations and better prepare them for the enjoyment of life. We feel that Dr. R. B. Lees, the President of the Board of Education, has for many years given his time, his talents, and the energies of his head and heart to the improvement of the schools, and it is largely due to his unerring counsel, unwavering zeal and untiring energy that we now enjoy the benefits of this night school. He has proved his loyalty to fair play and his fidelity to a square deal. Therefore, be it. Resolved. That we, the pupils of the night school, and citizens of Nashville, do heartily thank Dr. Lees for his friendly interest in us and deeply regret to see him retire from the Board of Education. Resolved. That our friendship shall go with him into private life, and we shall stand ready to welcome him back into public life. Committee of Pupils: mittee of Pupils: W. M. KELLY, HENRY BUTLER, J.

Fleming, who departed this life January 27, 1910. STORMED. The members of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church surprisingly stormed their pastor, Rev. B. F. Ferrell, Monday January 31, 1910. The presentation speech was made by Mr. Hayes Cole, who said in part: "We have the poor with us always. The event of tonight has for us a deeper significance and wider meaning than the dedicating of a material temple to the Most High. We have chosen to present you with a mark of our esteem, and it is only just and fitting as many of us deem it to take these tokens of our earnestness and we pray loudly for you who have labored in that vineyard ten and twenty years to-night. It is your silver jubilee, your hair is silvered, too, your voice hath still a silvery ring and just as good as new. Your mind is more mellowed by the charity that gives. The same gladdens him that takes and blesses him that gives. We present you these gifts in God's name. I bespeak the sentiment of all when I say it is good for us to be here and that all join in being jubilant and only hope we may be able to repeat the same very soon." Rev. Ferrell responded pathetically and expressed his appreciation for their dear remembrances. He expressed himself as doing all he could to foster Christ's kingdom and to raise fallen humanity. THE Y. M. L. C. The Y. M. L. C. met at the house of Mr. Kinzer's and all witnessed one of the most influential meetings of this club's career. The president opened the meeting with a short discussion and on being interrupted by the continuous flow of members, our program was begun as follows: "A short sketch of Cicero's Life," by Mr. Bond; song, "Annie Laurie;" "His Masterpiece and Why," Mr. Frazier and last Current Events by Mr. Johnson closing the program. The president again opens our mass-meeting by laying the subject which is our anniversary before us, and hearing the short bits of advice, encouragement and the willingness of each member to do his best to make this occasion a decided success and on receiving some very beneficial plans and the appointment of a committee of four to thoroughly arrange this motive, the President outlines and announces his subject for the next meeting which is to be held at the home of Mr. A. R. Stockard as being Paul Laurence Dunbar, the famous Negro poet. As this is the first of Negro writers all are anticipating bright prospects for a good meeting. At the close of our mass all partook of a delightful reap past prepared by Mrs. Kinzer.

Georgia's Capital City Is Awarded the Fifth Annual Session of the Sunday-School Congress—Meets May 25th to 30th. : At a special meeting of the officials of the Sunday-School Congress Movement, Wednesday, Feb. 2, 1910, the selection of a place to hold its 1910 session was taken up and disposed of. Invitations had been extended to the Congress from many cities throughout the United States, some of which were Muskogee and Oklahoma City, Okla.; Dallas, Tex.; Little Rock, Ark.; Chicago, Ill.; Meridian and Vicksburg, Miss.; Savannah and Atlanta, Ga., and Atlantic City, N. J. After a careful examination of the invitations and inducements offered, it is learned that the officials chose for the next meeting place the city of Atlanta. The Congress has been invited to meet there with the Liberty Baptist Church, at the corner of Jackson and Chestnut streets. The pastor of the church, Rev. J. W. Jackson, D. D., and the church clerk, Mr. W. D. Griffin, were notified to-day by the Congress officials of the action and the selecting of Atlanta and their church. A letter signed by Dr. C. H. Clark, Chairman of the Congress movement, and Rev. Henry A. Boyd, Secretary, was sent out as the official notice. The last session of the Congress was held in this city, and it is supposed that the impression made on the Atlanta delegation encouraged them to make a bid for the meeting. This will be the fifth annual session of this gathering of Sunday-school workers. The selecting of Atlanta for the place for 1910 argues much in the favor of the movement on account of the railroad facilities. The exact date of the meeting has been fixed from Wednesday, May 25th, to Monday, May 30th, which will include the fifth Sunday in May. Thousands of Sunday-school workers are interested in this Sunday-school Congress Movement, which, among Negroes, is regarded as one of the most important annual gatherings engaged in work among young people in the United States. Such men as C. T. Walker, D. D., of Augusta, Ga.; Geo. W. Lee, D. D., of Washington, D. C., and J. P. Robinson, D. D., of Little Rock, Ark.; Rev. S. W. Timms, D. D., of Brooklyn, N. Y.; Rev. J. F. Thomas, D. D., of Chicago, Ill.; E. R. Carter, D. D., and P. James Bryant, D. D., of Atlanta, have worked for and lent their influence to this young people's meeting, which also has the endorsement of the National Baptist Convention. The officers of the Congress are C. H. Clark, Chairman; R. H. Boyd, Organizer; Henry A. Boyd, Secretary; W. S. Ellington, Arbiter; Wm. Beckham, Missionary Superintendent, and R. B. Hudson, Recording Secretary, all of whom have served since its organization five years ago. CALL FOR CONGRESS MOVE MENT. Sunday-School Workers Asked to Meet in Atlanta, Ga., for Fifth Annual Session. The fifth annual session of The National Baptist Sunday-School Congress has been called to meet with the Liberty Baptist Church and Sunday-School and other churches of the city of Atlanta, Ga., from Wednesday, May 25-30. All Baptist Sunday-schools churches and missionary organizations are invited to send a delegate to this young people's gathering, which in reality is a school of methods. It is not a deliberative body; there is no election of officers, all of the time will be devoted to the discussion of subjects, methods and plans for the improvement of the Sunday-school work Special papers will be prepared and read before their meeting discussing every phase of Sunday-school methods. A list of these subjects will appear in The National Baptist Review from time to time. Any person may write on any subject printed. Send your name, address and the subject you have selected to the Secretary of the Congress Movement. Every Sunday-school may enroll and become a member of the Congress. The enrollment fee is $1.00 for each Sunday-school, having not over 100 students; all schools not having over 200 students $2.00, or in other words, the enrollment fee is $1.00 per hundred or a fraction of a hundred. Proceedings of the Congress will be sent to all Sunday-school enrolled whether a delegate is present or not. For information concerning railroad rates, call on or write to your railroad passenger agent or watch The National Baptist Review for the announcements. The special features of the Sunday School Congress will be the Superin- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910. tendent's conference, Baraca class conference, Philathea class conference, Advanced Teacher's conference, Intermediate Teacher's conference, the Primary Department conference, the Educator's conference and the Missionary conference.

The deceased was the step-mother and guardian of Prof. W. S. Thompson. He hurried to Evansville, Wednesday to make final arrangements for the interment which took place in Indiana. Prof Thompson was the only surviving relative of the deceased, who to him was a tender mother having practically reared him through his boyhood days. The news of the death was quite a blow and indeed unexpected. ONE-FOURTH OF THE APPLI CANTS TO TAKE CENSUS ARE WOMEN. Examinations Will Be Held Here Saturday. Harry Luck, Census Supervisor of this district, is very busy getting matters in shape for the taking of the census which begins on April 15. Applications for positions as Census Enumerators have been pouring into the office of Mr. Luck for the last few days, February 1 being the last day for receiving applications. Among the 400 applications received by Mr. Luck are applications from seventy-five white women, while of the total of 166 colored applications, fully one-half are women. Under the census laws women are eligible for appointment for enumerators. Mr. Luck will certainly consider these applications, and probably appoint women for the rural districts and suburban town sections. Mr. Luck has received copies of the examinations which are to be given the applicants on February 5. The examinations will be conducted in the court-room on the third floor of the custom house and will be held under the direction of the Civil Service Commission. The examination copies are under seal, and the law requires that they be opened in the presence of the applicants on the occasion of the examination. Mr. Luck has announced that one-half of the white applicants will be examined at 8 a. m. on February 5; that the remaining whites will be examined at 10 a. m., and that the colored applicants will likewise be examined at 1:30 and 3:30 o'c'ock in the evening of February 5. In the assignment of enumerators to the city, the Second Ward gets six enumerators; the First, Third and Fourteenth get five; the Fourth, Ninth, Fourteenth and Twentieth get four; the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Sixteenth. Seventeenth and Nineteenth get three, and the Tenth and Twelfth get two. In the county, the Second, Fourth, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth, Thirteenth Districts get two enumerators; the Eleventh gets three; the Sixth and Eighth get four, and the Fourteenth gets one. The pay of the enumerators is on the per capita basis, the opinion being that this district will be placed in Class C, which class pays the enumerator three cents per name, and in the rural districts 25 cents for each farm house. The examinations are graded by the Census Supervisor and forwarded with his recommendation as to appointments, to the Washington authorities. The appointment of enumerators is then made. A. B. S. CLUB. On January 26, 1910, the A. B. S. Club met with Miss Louise Armstrong, of 1512 Fourteenth avenue, North. Miss Annie Lou Mayberry presided over the meeting.

Business being completed, an ice-course was served. The club then adjourned to meet with Miss Annie Lou Mayberry, of 1615 Phillips street, Wednesday, February 2. CHURCH DIRECTORY.

LITTLE GIRL PAINFULLY BURNED Lynnville, Tenn., Jan. 31.—The ten-year-old daughter of Mr. Will Ferguson, residing several miles north of this place spilled turpentine on her skirt last Sunday morning and as quick as a flash it caught fire, she being close to the fire at the time. When the blaze enveloped her body the child ran into the yard, followed by a younger sister, who was alone with her in the house, and who dashed a bucket of water on the burning child. The mother, who was at the barn, heard the screams and reached the children in time to assist in extinguishing the fire. The child was horribly burned and will die, though she is still alive and suffering most excruciating pain. 8 SECOND, Stevens St., Cor.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910. POOR PEOPLE'S STORE. On Tuesday night of this week the Helping Hand Variety Store held a formal opening by a public demonstration in St. Paul A. M. E. Church. The object of the enterprise, as we understand it, is to alleviate the sufferings of deserving poor. The idea was conceived by Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, the pastor of the church where the exercises were held, and this move stamps him as a great benefactor. No man has ever established an enterprise more deserving of the united support of the people. There are scores of people in Nashville who are suffering today for food to sustain the body and fire to keep them warm. They have not strength to enable them to work, nor money with which to buy sustenance; they are the wards of charity. It is unfortunate that they are so situated, but sympathy will not comfort them now. They want something to eat and fire to keep them warm, and they ought to have these two things. The question then is how they can best be provided with them. It is proven beyond doubt that the best way to do anything is to do it systematically. We see in this store established for the benefit of the poor an agency through which these unfortunates can be systematically cared for, and in a manner that will not in any way burden the people. The man working for a dollar a day can contribute his share and be none the worst off for having done so. The plan, to be brief, is to sell the food stuffs or whatever may be handled in this store at the market price and to use the profits derived therefrom for the benefit of the poor. So the people can all help and at the same time get value received for their money. It is a capital idea and we believe will receive the hearty approval of all right-thinking people. YOUNG MEN IN BUSINESS. The young Negro men of this city are growing too indifferent to business. There was a time when scores of young men could be found engaged in nearly every branch of business, but we notice the number is decreasing continually. A very prominent young man recently gave as an excuse for closing up his place that he was tired of getting up so early mornings. The desire to live easy is sapping the vitality out of the race. No man can conduct an honest enterprise without a persistent effort. A business that --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1910. will run itself is dishonest in some phase. The establishment of every enterprise in Nashville or anywhere else has cost some body many sleepless nights. Our fathers and mothers toiled day and night that this generation might be better prepared to battle with the affairs of the world. They may not have realized just the best way to train their children; they were too slack on them no doubt in many instances, but they did sacrifice everything to give their children an education. So the young Negroes are able to read in history how the fathers of this and other countries had to suffer to perpetuate civilization and to keep the wheels of prosperity turning, and since they have a knowledge of what it cost the fathers they should also know what it will take to keep alive that energy required to accomplish what we see in this day. Young men, there is no time to eat idlers' bread. You owe it to those who labored and endured privations that you might have knowledge to use to the best of your ability that you have received, as the material welfare of the Negro race rests in the hands of the business men. A TRYING ORDEAL. On the eve of the meeting of the Bishop's Council of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Mississippi, the news is heralded abroad of depressions committed by the hellish demons that style themselves night riders. But in Holy Writ we are taught, "Blessed are you when men shall persecute you," etc., and we take on new courage. These men who are putting forth their best endeavors to teach the people to live better lives may rest assured that the Negroes of this country, and thousands of people in the white race who believe in justice are in sympathy with, and are mindful of the intimidations that have been flaunted in their faces. They look upon them as brave and courageous men who dare to do the right in spite of circumstances. We acknowledge receipt of a copy of the third number of "The Trenton Call" published in Trenton, N. J., by Prof. John Thomas Caruthers, president of the Bordentown Manual Training and Industrial School at Trenton, N. J. Mr. Caruthers is one of the young men of the old Volunteer State who has made a name for himself, and his many friends and will receive news of his success with much satisfaction. THE GLOBE welcomes "The Trenton Call" on the journalistic seas and entertains no thought than that she will be guided safely through every gale. The flood that has wrought such havoc in Paris, France, should be taken cognizance of by thinking people throughout the world. Our large cities are being undermined to too large extent, and unless a halt is ordered we will some day wake up to find New York, Boston, Cleveland, Chicago or some one of our large cities in the throes of just such an inundation as faces Paris to-day. The declarations made by leading railroad men and those in a position to see conditions as they really are in this country, and the activity of Federal and State governments clearly exemplifies the doctrine of Booker T. Washington that the American people need to put special stress upon farming. The Negroes must be made to see the wisdom in getting a piece of land of their own and then to learn how to utilize it. We learn that the average attendance to the night school is about one hundred. This fact is significant when it is remembered that there are thousands of young men and women in this city who could profit by the opportunity offered at this school to improve their intellect. Mayor Howse has again shown his capacity to handle great problems. Instead of an annual clean-up day we are to have them quarterly. The people, however, should go his Honor three hundred and sixty-one better and make it a daily occurrence. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. No white man has a right to seek the service of our girls, girls that we have striven to educate and make useful as well as helpful, who has not a gentle, manly regard for their character and good name. And no good mother, however poor and humble, ought to hire her girls out to men and concerns that have not high regard for the Christian integrity of our women.—McDowell Times, Keystone, W. Va. Negro Fire Insurance Company needed. Thinking along the line of the Negro who depends upon the fire insurance companies solely controlled by the whites, the writer thinks that the heads of all the Orders in the State of Mississippi should come together and levy a special tax upon every member under their control, in proportion to the amount needed, for the purpose of taking special stock, to the amount needed, for the perfection of the same. Let me hear from Bishop Lampton, E. P. Jones, E. H. H. McKissack, John W. Harris, J. A. Q. Williams and all the other fraternal brethren. As fast as the Southern Negro gets his property out of debt, there seems to be a move to dispossess him of insurance protection. Many of you may not see now as I do, but you will soon beface to face with the stubborn fact.-The People's Relief, Brookhaven, Miss. Bailroad Men Organize. Some time ago we called to the attention of the dining-car waiters and Pullman car porters the importance of getting together into an organization. No attention has been paid by them as far as we have been advised. We think the matter of sufficient importance to again remind them that such an organization is very necessary. Every other line of railroad employment is organized, why not you? Thousands of dollars are now squandered by you. You pay thousands of dollars to various organizations which give you little consideration, whereas an organization where plans of helpfulness could be put in motion would be to your mutual benefit. There are over 80,000 Negroes in the service. THE AGE stands ready to assist you in getting together into a helpful, do-something organization.—New York Age. *** Another Colored Cadet. Another Colored Cause? Is the world growing better? That's the question. In reply many good prelates answer yes and then start out to prove it is true. But with it all and in spite of it all, other little knotty questions arise and the answer given is different from that given by good prelates, who as a rule, refer to the work being done in far-off India and not to the growth of Christian faith and practice nearer home. For instance, Ollie R. Smith, a young colored man, of Cheyenne, Wyoming, is a prospective candidate for admission to West Point. Mr. Smith is an athlete and was a member of the freshman football team at the University of Nebraska last year. He is also a bright young fellow and has already stood his physical examination and the result was the splendid percentage of 91 per cent. The papers for his mental examination are expected to reach West Point the latter part of the present week or the early part of next week. But the color ghost arises here too and white writers in order to show that the world has grown no better than it was twenty-five years ago, say that although the Civil War is but a memory, West Point is full of Southerners, who are just as loyal to their brothers from the Northern States. When it comes to the question of color it can be said that the West Point opinion of to-day is the same, no matter whether the cadet comes from New York, Louisiana, Texas or California. Any colored man appointed to the academy would be ostracized beyond the shadow of a doubt. Not a cadet would speak to him, except under the strictest military conditions. Socially the cadet would be dead, so far as the other cadets were concerned. You ask me what the authorities at West Point would do in such a case. They would admit the cadet, of course, and they would protect him, and they would see to it that he was given the instruction to which he was entitled, and if he passed his examination and his conduct was good he would get his diploma and his commission as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army. There can be no doubt on that score. But the authorities could not make the other cadets associate with him and they would not try. They would not worry about hazing, so far as the colored cadet is concerned, for they are West Pointers themselves, and they know from their own experience that a colored cadet is never hazed. It remains to be seen whether the writer has written from absolute facts or from his own prejudicial feeling. We hope Mr. Smith will enter West Point and he will be enabled through experience to tell us whether the world is growing better or not. But one thing one may be assured of, and that is that hundreds of the penny liners who are on the repolitical staff of many dallies furnish ample proofs in their writings that they are in no sense a part of the better growing world and seem to believe it is their righteous duty to do their utmost to keep alive ugly antipathies of the class against the other. The colored man goes to West Point, not for social equality, but for a military training so as to be fitted for the duties and responsibilities of a soldier's life. How idle and foolish all such talk about his being accepted as a social equal of the other cadets. Hundreds of other young colored men who desire military training should strive to enter West Point and acquire the kind of education which will make them serviceable to their country and flag in the years to come. Fighting the good fight there in spite of ostracism will make them soldiers brave and true and make them better fitted for other fields of battle.—Philadelphia Tribune. Census Director Durand Establishes a Classification of Census Takers. Washington, D. C. January 22, 1910. The varying wage scale in different parts of the country and the differences in the nature and extent of the local difficulties confronting the enumerators in the larger geographical divisions of the United States have influenced and guided United States Census Director Durand in the adoption of a classification of enumerators' rates of compensation, within the limits prescribed by the United States Census law enacted by Congress. The different classes of rates will be so applied that in general the average enumerator will earn substantially the same actual amount in one district as in another, even though the population may be much sparser in one than in the other, with other conditions also different. Regard is paid to the fact that prevailing wages and salaries are higher in some parts of the country than in others, but, aside from this, the Director's aim is to adjust the rates so as to make the earnings of the enumerators substantially uniform. Where the per capita rates would not give sufficient pay, the per diem rates are prescribed. The rates in general will be so adjusted as to give a slightly higher average amount to the enumerators than they received in 1900. Per diem rates will be paid to the census enumerators in the sparsely settled rural districts of Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The rate will range from $5 to $6 per day for the enumeration of the rural areas outside of cities and towns. Six dollars is the highest rate authorized by law. The Director realizes that in many districts of the far West it will be impossible to secure competent men to act as enumerators at a rate of compensation less than that being paid for ordinary classes of work in the same area. Were enumerators in such districts paid only on the per capita basis, their compensation would be unreasonably low. The enumerators in the thinly inhabited country sections of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas also will be compensated on a per diem basis. Certain difficult or sparsely settled enumeration districts in other states will be included among those to which the per diem rates will apply, as the conditions of the enumeration will be such that an enumerator could not make fair earnings at any of the per capita rates established. This announcement was made by Census Director Durand to-day, in order to counteract the deterrent effect upon applications for enumerators' places in far West and Southwest states of the widely circulated and erroneous statement that per capita rates of pay were to be given in the sparsely populated regions named. The Classification of Rates. The Classification or Rates. In this connection the Director has issued to the census supervisors a detailed statement of the classification of rates adopted for the compensation of enumerators in the Thirteenth Census, commencing April 15 next. There are three general rates—the per capita, the mixed, and the per diem. The first and second general rates have five subdivisions each. have five customers. The per diem rates range from $3 to $3.50, $, $4.50, $5, $5.50, and $6, and are to be paid for a day of eight hours' work. For enumerators on the per capita basis, which will be that most widely used, the pay for each inhabitant is: Class A, 2 cents; class B, 2 1-2 cents; class C, 3 cents; class D, 3 1-2 cents; and class E, 4 cents. Such enumerators will also be paid for each farm as follows: Class A, 20 cents; class B, 22 1-2 cents; class C, 25 cents; class D, 27 1-2 cents; and class E, 30 cents. These rates are in each case 5 cents or more higher than those paid in 1900, when the range was from 15 to Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1, by a male quartet DR. HENRY E. KREBBIEL, "Dean of American Critics" says: "A concert-goer might live a lifetime and never hear such beautiful homogeneity of tone as that which they produce, nor such euphony, perfection of unance and precision.

NASHVILLE. - TENN. 20 cents. For each establishment of productive industry the rate for each class is 30 cents. For each barn and inclosure containing live stock, not on farms, the pay is 10 cents for each class. Under the mixed rate, which is a combination of the per capita and the per diem, there are five subclasses alphabetically arranged, and the per diem is: Class F, $1; G, $1.25; H, $1.50; I, $1.75; and J, $2. For each inhabitant the pay is: Class F, 2 cents; G, 2 1-2 cents; H, 2 1-2 cents; I, 2 1-2 cents; and J, 3 cents. For each farm: Class F., 15 cents; G, 17 1-2 cents; H, 17 1-2 cents; I and J, 20 cents each. For each establishment of productive industry the rate is 20 cents for each class. OFFICIAL NOTICE FROM GROUND HOG HEADQUARTERS. Punxsutawney, Pa., Holds Its Annual Ceremony and Announces Six More Weeks of Winter. Punxsutawney, Pa., Feb. 2.—This is the great day of the year in Punxsutawney, the home of the groundhog.

Hobson City, Ala., February 3.—That there are good white men in the South holding elective office, men who are determined to see to it that at least a part of the spirit of the constitution of the United States is carried out so far as they are concerned individually, and so far as their power extends as guardians and administrators of the law, was evident to-day when the news reached this city that Judge Thomas W. Coleman, of Anniston, declared the law unconstitutional which had as its main purpose the destroying of this Negro city and municipality. Any number of efforts have been made to wipe Hobson City off the map. This little community is on the order of Mound Bayou, Miss., Red Bird and Boley, Okla. It has a growing population and a complete set of municipal officers, all Negroes. It derived its name from Richmond Pearson Hobson, Congressman from Greensboro, Ala., who gained distinction in the Spanish-American War. By Associated Press. Anniston, Ala., January 29.—Hobson City seems destined to remain a municipality of and for Negroes exclusively, notwithstanding acts and joint resolutions of Alabama's Legisture and divers other methods employed to destroy its autonomy. Judge Thomas W. Coleman, of the Anniston City Court yesterday declared unconstitutional the act passed at the last session of the Legislature providing for the extension of the corporate limits of Oxford so as to embrace Hobson City. He held that proper publication of the act had not been made. Last year a similar act was declared unconstitutional. THE GREAT BANKRUPT SALE OF THE STOCK OF P. H.

The doctrinal points discussed therein are correct, and are just what our people should know and be constantly reminded of." Bishop Mack has had wide experience and is no doubt in a position to know whereof he speaks—National Baptist Review. PASTORAL CHANGE.

It is understood that since the death of Rev. A. N. McEwen, who was elected Educational Secretary of the National Baptist Educational Board during the session of the Sunday-School Congress, June, 1909, when it met in this city, an office which he never entered actively into the work of there must be a new secretary elected. Efforts to get in correspondence with Rev. T. J. Searcy, the Chairman of the Educational Board, have not been successful, thus it is not known what course the Educational Board will take except as has been the custom, fill the vacancy by a special election. The Baptist ministers of this city are predicting that at the special executive committee meeting, which is usually called some time during the month of June or July to arrange for the program of the coming session of their convention this election will take place and the vacancy will be filled. The continuous illness and death of Dr. McEwen is known to have upset the well-laid plans of the Educational Board as its Chairman, Dr. Searcy, had already announced that he and the late Dr. McEwen --- nkets— 2.98 o— 1.25 o— 1.98 jah Corded Silks, Hair-line Messa silks in stock—worth e at, per yard..... 59c lengths, skirt lengths and full dress at ONE-THIRD THE REGULAR n's Hose—worth 8c 5c values— 15c insertions— 8c 25c 5c worth up 25c OW'S SALE would both spend a deal of this year on the road in the interest of the Educational Board and the National Baptist Theological Seminary, which school was to have been opened this year in temporary quarters in connection with Roger Williams University, but plans which were already laid out for a $50,000 school, also to be located in this city. In many of the Southern States the late Dr. McEwen was regarded as a very strong man and much confidence had been imposed in his educational campaign. The working of the secretary and chairman of that board would have, it is said, meant thousands of dollars for this work. But Dr. Searcy is still planning and is determined to bring the theological seminary to pass. The citizens of Nashville are equally as earnest in their efforts to co-operate, as for the past five or six years—in fact, during the life of the Educational Board in Nashville, whose secretary at the time of its location here was Prof. John R. Wilson, whose successors have been Prof. Abner, of Texas; Rev. D. S. Klugh, of New Jersey, and the late Rev. McEwen, of Mobile—nothing has been done in the way of beginning the much-talked-of theological seminary, notwithstanding the splendid offers both from Nashville and from the Home Mission Society of New York, that have been made through the Convention. Dr. E. Posey, who is practicing at Centerville, Tenn., was in the city this week on business. Dr. Charles L. Morgan, of the class of '09, Meharry Medical College, who is practicing at Dickson, Tenn., brought a patient to the city for operation this week. Mr. Clarence Harwell is slightly indisposed this week. Mr. A. G. Price has been suffering with toothache. 5 6 OUT OF TOWN NOTES. LEWISBURG NOTES.

The public installation of the officers of the Knights of Pythias last Tuesday night at the A. M. E. Church was an interesting affair. The exercises were very impressive. Sir Knight J. A. Jones performed the services. After the exercises a banquet was served to the friends of the Knights at the Castle Hall. Mrs. Lucretia Eakin, one of the oldest citizens of Shelbyville and community, dropped dead last week. Her funeral took place at the A. M. E. Church. Dr. F. W. Gardner officiated, assisted by Dr. J. A. Jones. A very large congregation attended the services. The students of Turner Normal gave a very nice musical and literary concert on the 28th inst., at Woodfork Chapel. "Midget" Saunders, of Nashville, seems to have been the star of the occasion. She gracefully responded to an encore by reciting "Delinquent," from Dunbar. Little Ella Jones also made a hit by reciting a selection from Dunbar. Turner Normal College is now full to overflowing. President Jones says that no other girls need apply, for there is no more room. The latest arrival of Turner Normal among the girls is Miss Geneva Phillips, of Nashville.
