THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. V. OVER$1,600,000 AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK OF NEGRO BANKS. Institution a Potent Factor In Many Cities. PEOPLE BECOMING DEEPLY INTERESTED IN FINANCES — BANKS ESTABLISHED IN MANY SOUTHERN STATES — ESTIMATE OF A PROMINENT BANKER TOO LOW—STOCK CUT UP INTO SMALL SHARES TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE WITH SMALL MEANS — $5.00 PER SHARE THE GENERAL RULE—FEW SHARES HIGHS AS $100.00. There is dotted all over this beautiful Southland more than a half hundred prosperous Negro banks and banking concerns. These institutions, while having sprung up proverbially speaking, like a mushroom over night, have taken on the most substantial growth. They represent much in money accumulated by the Negroes since 1865. In looking over the list of banks and in carefully studying the situation it is surprising that out of the fifty odd now in operation, only one has its location north of what is commonly known as the Mason and Dixon line. Further than this, only two have ever been operated in what might be termed the North. The backbone of the Negro banking enterprise was not broken by the disastrous failure of the Freedman's Bank in Washington, D. C. To the contrary, to that one failure more than anything else can be traced and attributed the splendid showing made by what the politicians call the Solid South in the Negro's financial growth in the banking world. The Negro banks have become a potent factor in many of the large cities. This can best be seen by a glance at the cities in the South where Negro banks are established. One might recall the financial panic of 1907 and the spring of 1908, when in most Southern cities, where the panic is supposed to have spent its fury, the clearing-houses composed of the financial organizations attempted to handle the situation without calling into question the Negro banks, but this was an ignominious failure. In some of the cities where these banks were not consulted they continued to pay dollar for dollar. Some of them never accepted the clearing-house certificates nor did they ever pay out one. But on the other hand when the Negro banks were finally called in consultation a ready agreement was reached and hand in hand they worked out the situation to the advantage of all on the brotherly love idea. To be specific, there is one city in the South, which now boasts of three thriving banking concerns where, it is said, that a disposition on the part of white banks to ignore them proved the undoing of several and the permanent establishment of these three institutions. Negroes were drawn into them as depositors and stockholders that heretofore had never dreamed of being identified with a bank being operated by members of their race. To show to what extent this is true, it was only this month that in one of the annual stockholders' meetings it was noticed that the stockholders ranged in age from twenty-eight months to seventy-odd years, while in another bank there were stockholders represented as only two months old running to seventy. Thus the outlook for the future growth of the Negro bank institutions shows the most decided improvement of any other commercial enterprise. The permanency of these concerns has been tested. That test as was forestated, was demonstrated during the panic. Out of the scores of failures reported by the press not one was chalked up against the Negro bank. Their annual statements, instead of showing a decrease in clearance, showed an increase. It might be an injustice to the western portion of the United States to designate them as being in the Solid NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1910. Tabulated Statement of Negro Banks, Showing Location, the Capital Stock Authorized and the Names of the Presidents and Cashiers. South, and yet about the only banks operated by Negroes west of the Mississippi are those located in Texas and Oklahoma. In giving a tabulated list of the banks by states and cities it will be seen that Oklahoma and Texas are relied upon to represent that vast section of country lying west of the Mississippi River, Illinois being represented in the North and East. Quite a number of cities in states where the Negro banking concerns are thriving that can boast of a splendid array of concerns are said to be as solid, financially speaking, as the Rock of Gibraltar. A glance over the tabulated list will show that the real backbone and brawn of the Negro Banking Industry, if you please, is found in that territory lying east of the Mississippi and south of the Ohio and Potomac Rivers. They come in the states as follows: Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi. It will be seen that there is not a Negro bank in the states of Kentucky and South Carolina, while Virginia and Mississippi vie for supremacy in point of number, with Virginia leading by the small majority of two. There were eleven banks in the state of Mississippi on January 1, 1910. According to report there are thirteen banks in the state of Virginia. "Thirteen" has been regarded as an unhucky number, but not so when dealing with dollars and cents or with concerns handling money. It is impossible to correctly state the total amount of clearings of the Negro banks in the United States for 1909, but a conservative estimate places it at $20,000,000. Indeed, it was with much difficulty that the authorized capital of these banks was secured. If three of the Southern States, namely, Kentucky, West Virginia and South Carolina, would each establish a bank, the Solid South would go marching northward represented with one or more Negro banks in each state. But the splendid lead gained by Virginia, backed by the state of Mississippi, added to the total number of banks throughout the country, is enough to average four Negro banks to each state in the Southland. In speaking of cities supporting two or more Negro banks, it would be unfair to the new state of Oklahoma not to give her due recognition. Boley, Okla., can boast of two banks; Vicksburg, Miss., has two; Memphis, Tennessee, has two; Nashville, Tennessee, two; Jacksonville, Fla., two; Kinston, N. C., two; Newbern, (Continued on Page 5.) COMPILED BY HENRY A. BOYD, NASHVILLE, TENN. BISHOP TYREE RETURNS FROM BISHOPS' COUNCIL—MEETING GREAT SUCCESS —PROMINENT MEN STOP IN NASHVILLE ON RETURN TO THEIR FIELDS OF LABOR. Bishop Evans Tyre returned to the city Monday night from the council of Bishops of the A. M. E. Church, which convened in Vicksburg, Miss., last week. He reports the session to have been a success in every way. Bishop Tyre represented Texas that constitutes the Tenth Episcopal District of his Church. He has done exceptionally good work along educational lines since he has had the oversight of the church work in that state. When he went to the Lone Star State the college at Waco, Paul Quinn, was barely able to keep her doors open, but now the institution has good credit and all the indebtedness is paid but one mortgage which the Bishop is planning to raise this summer. The people of Texas are highly appreciative of the efforts Bishop Tyre has put forth to put Paul Quinn College on a firm footing and are backing him up lovingly. Several of the leading men of the African Methodist Church passed through this city on their return from the council sitting. Among them were Prof. R. R. Wright, Jr., Manager of the A. M. E. Book Concern, Philadelphia, Pa., which is the oldest publishing house in this country owned and operated by Negroes. Prof. Wright is a young man. He was chosen to take charge of the plant when the health of the late Dr. Collett, the then manager, broke down. He was also appointed editor of the Christian Recorder, the health of Dr. Johnson, the editor, failing to the extent that he was compelled to give up his duties. Mr. Wright has held his own in the Book Concern, and has the eyes of the great A. M. E. denomination fixed upon him. While here Prof. Wright carefully inspected the Negro publishing houses. Dr. Horace Tolbert, Secretary of Wilberforce University, also stopped over. He is a man of great force, and ably represents his work on every hand. Dr. Tolbert spent several hours in the city and continued his journey homeward Thursday night. Prof. H. T. Kealling, Dr. J. F. Cald- well and Dr. W. A. Lewis completed the number that stopped in Nashville, all being residents of this city. Mr. Ira T. Bryant, the general officer in charge of the publishing house here, did not go to the council, owing to press of business. GLOWING REPORTS FROM CHI CAGO. For the past two weeks, the Rev Dr. C. H. Clark, pastor of the Mt Olive Baptist Church, has been sojourning in Chicago, Ill., where he was the guest of Rev. J. F. Thomas, D. D., pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church, at 35 Dearborn street. Dr Clark has been going to Chicago for the past several years to assist Dr. Thomas in his revivals. Nothing would suit Dr. Thomas, but that he keep this habit up. While Dr. Clark is pastoring, he has the distinction of being a great revivalist. The report from Chicago is that the services are proying of great help. Large congregations have heard him deliver his able sermons nightly. Just before leaving for the Windy City, Dr Clark was presented with a handsome watch. The presentation was made by Rev. R. H. Boyd, in behalf of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. In presenting the watch he admonished him that on this trip "He should preach by time, not allowing himself to go over the stipulated length of time. It was understood, however, that it was not to lessen his efforts in fighting sin and Satan along every line." Last month he addressed the Ministers' Conference of Chicago, where such divines as Revs. J. A. Chavis, D. D.; T. A. McCoo, P. R. Thomas, D. D.; R. L. Darden, D. D.; J. F. Thomas, D. D.; E. F. D. Zimmerman, D. D.; D. H. Harris, D. D.; M. M. Gray, D. D.; J. H. G. Davis, D. D., and J. A. Royal, D. D., are all energetic workers and members, and that he was given a splendid ovation is evidenced from the reports coming almost daily. He is hailed in Chicago as one of the most successful pastors in the United States. Aside from this, his connection with the National Baptist Convention, being chairman of the Publishing Board, gives him splendid notoriously. There are quite a number of Nashville people living in Chicago, many of whom were members of his church in Nashville. They have made his stay not only pleasant, but profitable to the denomination. No. 7. JOHN P. RHINES VINDIGATED BY THE STATE SUPREME COURT. Prosecution Did Not Have Good Color. ATTORNEY GENERAL MIGHT AS WELL ENTER A "NOLLE PROSEQUI," DECLARED THE COURT —MR. RHINES ONE OF THE THE LEADING CITIZENS OF NASHVILLE — TAUGHT SCHOOL FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS—GRADUATE OF WALDEN LAW SCHOOL—FELT MUCH HURT OVER TREATMENT OF THE CRIMINAL COURT. "This prosecution does not come here with good color and this court would never let this judgment stand upon the evidence offered here. Unless there is further evidence, the Attorney-General might as well as enter a nolle prosequi." (The Supreme Court of Tennessee.) The highest tribunal within the State of Tennessee on last Saturday morning with the above words crushed an effort which had been made by a number of unscrupulous parties, aided and abetted by prejudiced white lawyers, to persecute one of Nashville's reputable citizens and prominent lawyers in the person of J. P. Rhines. The decision of the Supreme Court, as stated before, was a complete repudiation of the entire repudiation held in the lower court and of the judge before whom the case was tried. Mr. Rhines is one of the best known and highly respected citizens of Nashville. He was educated at Fisk University and for more than ten years was a teacher in the Nashville city schools, afterward attending the law department of Walden University, where he graduated with honor and distinction; and after being admitted to the Nashville bar, began the practice of his profession. He has made a reputation as a lawyer, of which a host of friends throughout the entire country feel proud, as was attested by the many telegrams and letters which he received when it was learned that he had been completely vindicated of any wrongdoing by the Supreme Court of Tennessee and with this vindication it administered a stinging rebuke to his persecutors. In this connection it may be said that the seeming readiness and willingness, at any and all times and without any or no evidence whatever, of the Criminal Court of Davidson County, to humiliate and disgrace respectable and useful citizens, is receiving the severest censure from the Negro pulpit, the press and every member of the race. Mr. Rhines stated that while he was satisfied that the ultimate result of the trial would show to his friends and to the public that he had been greatly imposed upon, the accusations, nevertheless had been a great mental strain upon him. He seemed very much touched when speaking of those of his friends who were willing and did suspend their judgment of his guilt until a proper trial could be had on the merits of the case and his guilt or innocence clearly shown.

CLUB DOES HOM AGE TO ST VALENTINE The beautiful home of Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Boyd was opened to the H. T. G. M. Club on Monday evening in celebration of St. Valentine's eve, with Mrs. Boyd and Miss Bessie Martin as hostesses. This home has never appeared more brilliant nor more in keeping with the season than on this occasion. No detail of decoration suggestive of the Valentine season was omitted. Hearts of every size were suspended from the ceilings and chandallers, also placed in each inviting niche and nook, especially notable was one large heart in whose center appeared the latest picture of the club. Each guest was provided with silver bow and arrow of gold, by the King and Queen of Hearts, and requested to engage in an "Archery Contest" for the center of various colored hearts, the fate of each archer being decided by the flight of his winged arrow. Then there was the "Wheel of Fortune," ever turning to the will of the "King and Queen of Hearts." The turns of the wheel brought favors unique and especially designed for the season, such as Cupid Hearts, Winged Arrows, Pierced Hearts, Standing Cupids, Cupid in a peanut, Cupid in a walnut, etc. These hostesses have indeed set a precedent in the beauty, adaptability and appropriate use of the Negro doll for a party decoration. Every model representing Cupid was made with the Negro doll, ranging in size from one inch to sixteen inches. The culmination of interest if it can be said, that there was any such point reached, came in an "Acrostic Contest" taken from the word "Heart." This unique contest brought into play the wit and poetical talent of the guests assembled. The poet and poetess of the evening proved to be Dr. J. Q. Taylor and Miss Nina E. Murrell. Dr. Taylor was the recipient of a handsome shaving mirrow and Miss Murrell of a sixteen-inch Negro doll, beautifully attired in white cloth coat and legging trimmed with brass buttons. Dr. Taylor's effort was a toast to the club. "Here's to your club of maidens so fair; Each trying some way to improve, And you must take care, Remember whose near "Tis Cupid, and your time to love." Miss Murrell's: "Hearts won or lost, Each one has cost A smile or a tear somewhere, Right now begin, may be you'll win That one, for which you most care; The dining-room might be said to have excelled in decoration. A cupid designed with a Negro doll was suspended over the center of the table, on which was a heart-shaped cake bearing the mysterious insignia of the club, on the four corners of the table were red candles in cut glass holders and hearts of all sizes were artistically arranged about the entire table. A two-course menu with heart-shaped delicacies was dispensed. The guests of the evening were Miss Blanche Stevens, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Boyd and R. H. Boyd 3rd, Messrs. Jas. A. Simpson, E. G. Cole, W. D. Bogel, and J. B. Sims, Drs. R. F. Boyd, M. A. Melton, Wm. M. Glover, J. Q. Taylor, T. L. O. Sullivan, J. B. Darden, J. B. Hankle and H. C. Clardy, Mrs. A. S. Rucker. OHIO ENTERTAINMENT.

DEBATE Fisk—Howard—Atlanta. Triangular League Plan of Debate Inaugurated by Leading Negro Universities. Subject: The Income Tax. April 1 is the date in Nashville, Atlanta and Washington, D. C., of a unique debate between teams from the three leading Negro universities of our country. The home team of each university will support the affirmative while its visiting team will defend the negative. There has recently been formed by these universities what is known as a Triangular League. The purpose of this plan of And ALL KINDS OF HOUSEHOLD FURNISHINGS We can furnish your home on easy payments. TELEPHONE MAIN 701 No. 318 Broadway. league is to have simultaneously in three different localities as many debates. Each institution sends two teams into the contest, one remains at home while the other visits. This form of debate is very usual among the leading colleges of the country; it so happens that this is the first time on record when there existed such an organization or was ever such an occasion among Negro educational institutions in our country. For some years past there have been a series of contests between Fisk and Atlanta and always have proved highly commendable not alone in point of public interest but for the argumentative drill given to students in the various literary clubs of these schools, while preparing for these debates. Already there have been held two trial debates at Fisk giving candidates for the teams there an opportunity to gain representation upon one of these teams. There is a committee of nine, judges before whom they must appear and display whatever ability they may possess to merit election to these teams. As a result the Carnegie Library at Fisk is no longer a fable "storehouse" of books but a veritable "workshop" of busy aspirants. We feel that each of these debates will be of usual merit owing to the extended and comprehensive study that is being given to the subject of argumentation as a course in the curricula of these schools. The winning of such a debate as these will lend added popularity to the fact that these universities are the highest exponents of educational facilities among our people. Taking place as they do in these intellectual centers of the nation there is every indication of its having an interested and appreciative public encouragement to such an enterprise along the line of student activity.

An excellent program was rendered by tho following ladies: Miss Donie Smith recited a poem; Mrs. Ransom read an excellent ‘paper on Art, and ‘Mrs. Ridley a paper on the Race Problem. The query-box was in charge of Mrs, W. Boyd. Mrs, War. ren was guest of the club and her ad. dress was full of encouragement. ‘The hostess served an elaborate two: course menu. Those present to en- joy the occasion were Mrs. Ransom, Mrs, Holman, Mrs. Boyd, Mrs. Mor: gan, Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Kirk, Mrs. Warren, Mrs. Ridley, Mrs. Cynthia Boyd, Misses Morgan, Woods, Smith and Mollie Snowden.

Miss King, with the other members of the class, had spared no pains to make the af- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1910. fair an enjoyable one. The Valentine spirit was seen in the many attractive decorations and Valentine games, numerous and interesting were in- dulged in. A special feature of the evening was the game of “Cupid,’ ‘in which the player with a bow and ar- row tries to pierce a heart placed at a certain distance away. In. this game the first prize, a heart-shaped box of heart candy was won by Mr. Arthur Brown and the second, a fancy valentine, by Mr. George Clark. In the contest of cutting the heart- shaped cake a number of prizes were won. Among them a dime cut. by ‘Miss Mary Clark and a thimble by Mrs, Fannie Green. In the dining- room, where the delightful supper was served the decorations were su- perb. From the chandeliers, extend- ing the entire length of the room, large red hearts were suspended, and at each plate the same were used for place cards, each guest was presented a smalt red heart on entering the dining-room, as a souvenir. The cen- terpiece of the table was a large red witch's cauldron, with a heart-shaped pot surrounded by ‘small hearts. The color-scheme of red and white was shown in all the decorations and in the menu. The most amusing fea- ture of the’ menu was the Valentine sandwiches tied with red ‘ribbon, the untying of which revealed a comical valentine, suggestive of the recipi- ent’s pet hobby. Although the affair was given as a benefit to the class in a financial way, the evening's enter- tainment was quite as enjoyable as any social function could be. Quite @ large gathering was present and enjoyed the interesting program given by the members of the class. Mr. H. A. Boyd, the teacher, acted as master of ceremonies and opened the program with an address which was listened to intently. Miss Willa “Hurt, the class president, welcomed the guests in a well-prepared speech. Miss King, as hostess and secretary, responded in well chosen words. Oth- ers on the program who deserve spe- cial mention were Mr. George Bink- ley, and Rev. John Ridley. The mu- sical numbers, which consisted of a Vocal solo by Mrs. Drake and an in- strumental number by Miss Mary Walker, were highly appreciated. Miss L. B. Stringer delighted all with a recital of Toussaint L'Ouverture. A neat sum was realized from the en tertainment. BABY BAND IN TENNESSEE. In October we told you something of the work among our young peo- ple and children, A special feature of this department is our Baby Band. We have prepared a neat little post: card to be used as a receipt for the ten-cent annual fee, also certificate. They become a member from one to seven years of age. We planned to give names monthly, but have been pressed for time to do the work, and could not. We have only secured a few names, but we will not wait longer for others. We hope parents who are interested in their children and the work of enlisting the little ones may send us the name, age and fee, and let us enrol them. Great work can be done in this way if all will lend a hand. Let friends who wish to help, make their friends chil. dren members; it will not be out of Place. You may also send the names of grandchildren, nieces, nephews o1 any relative. The following have been enrolled since October: Annie, Marie Amanda and J. C. Haynes, Wil lie Lou Low, Conridge Gill, Robt. Wil lis Harris, S. W. Franklin, Dayton Ara belle, Winnie Corinn Hart, Lula B Hall, Nashville; Josie and Redford Mitchell, Gates, Russell Conwell and Eveline Vertrees, Gallatin, Respectfully, M.

In the passing away of Mrs. Inez, the wife of Walter Allen, quite recently, at the family residence, East Nashville (White's Creek Pike) the community has lost a valued worker, especially at Zion Baptist Church, where her energy and activity as a member were only matched by her sterling integrity and reliability. In private life she was a devoted wife and mother. Her illness, which was very brief, was borne patiently. Very impressive services were held at Zion Baptist Church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Keel. She is survived by her husband, Walter, two sons, Reuben and Clarence, and one daughter, Georgia, brothers and sisters. In her we have lost a friend and Christian worker. May I say to her as a sincere friend, "Sleep and Rest." SUSIE RAINES. East Nashville, Tenn. This concerns YOU Are Your EYES NORMAL?

Discussions were made on inherent subjects by each member. After the meeting was closed a two-course menu was served by the hostess. MORE WHITES THAN NEGROES Fail to Stand Teachers' Examinations in Alabama. Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 13.—More whites were rejected for failure to meet requirements in the December examinations for teachers in the public schools, proportionately, than Negroes, according to figures that have been secured from the examining board of the Department of Education. Of the total of 2,136 applicants, 496 failed. There were 1,058 asking from among the whites, with 587 rejections. Of 353 Negro applicants, 138 failed. Over half of the whites were rejected, and just over a third of the Negroes. There is good reason for the proportion. Whites take more chances, applying for first grade and life certificates where they have any show at all. On the other hand, the Negroes rarely seek better than third grade. Many of he schools urge this upon the Negroes, telling them it is better to try for third grade and win than aspire higher and lose. Another thing is that since the wholesale arrests of Negroes charged with cheating some time ago all but the best are afraid to make the effort.

In this cause it appearing to the satisfaction of the court that the defendants, E. J. Fisher and E. C. Morris, are non-residents of the state of Tennessee; therefore the ordinary process of law cannot be served upon them; it is therefore ordered that the defendants enter their appearance herein on the 10th day of March, 1910, 2 p. m. before Esq. Jake Levine, it being the 10th day of March, 1910, and defend said suit or the said account will be taken for confessed as to them and proceeded with on that day ex parte. It is therefore ordered that a copy of this order be published for 4 weeks in succession in the Nashville Giobe, a newspaper published in Davidson County. JAKE LEVINE, J. P. R. L. MAYFIELD, Attorney. NEW ORGANIZATION ADVOCATED. I am glad to know that our leading men have opened their hearts in an attempt to help the poor. The formal opening of the Helping Hand Variety Store is what I want to talk about. This is really helping the poor people and the school boys and girls. A firm should be organized that would employ one or two hundred boys and girls. Have you ever given this a thought? What do we educate our boys and girls for—porters, house-girls, cooks and nurses. There is nothing for them to do. They go to school and must either be teachers or physicians. We want places made so we can have more book-keepers, typewriters and business men. Now, friends, I want to explain this matter to you. We want to organize a company known as The Laboring Men's Building Association, which will furnish employment for book-keepers, typewriters and clerks. This will be helping the poor people, by paying them a salary, and then I will believe the Helping Hand Variety Store will succeed, because the laboring class must have something to do. Yours truly, Manager of the Laboring Man's Building Association. CENTERVILLE NOTES. Owing to the extreme bad weather last Sunday, all services were cancelled. According to the estimate of same the snow was on last Friday and Saturday ten inches. Most people here have lost faith in the "groundhog theory." Mr. D. P. Booker, of Allen Creek, was in Centerville last week to see his sick daughter, Miss Nettle Booker. Mr. B. M. Hornbeak is on the sick list. N. C., two; Richmond, Va., four. Hence, the Old Dominion State with its capital city leads in number of banks and in the amount of capital stock authorized. The amount of capital stock represented by the Negro banks of the United States is placed at $1,620,000, a stupendous sum, representing the great confidence of the people. The money is mostly divided into shares of $5.00 each. Few concerns sell stock at $10.00 per share, while about four have their stock at $100.00 per share. The average dividend declared for 1909 was 6 per cent. If this entire amount of capital stock is paid up and a dividend of 6 per cent, is declared on the capital stock it will be seen that $97,200 is annually paid out to stockholders of the banks throughout the country. The effort to establish a clearing-house of Negro banks will possibly be determined within the next twelve months, when a more complete and detailed statement showing the standing of all the banks can be brought out, thereby introducing the banker in Mississippi to the banker in Virginia, the banker in Florida to the banker in Oklahoma. Nothing is more surprising than this array of substantial concerns as is shown by this investigation. VALENTINE PARTY. Miss Minnie Donelson entertained with a valentine party last Wednesday evening at the home of her sister, Mrs. Ed Issaca, 110 Cole street. The house was appropriately decorated, many potted flowers and ferns being used. Frappe was dispensed during the evening.

The following guests were present: Mises Sallie Duvall, Elma Brown, Will T. Stones, Mary Leath and Mamie Johnson, Mrs. J. K. Campbell, Mrs. Jeff Bragg, Mrs. A. C. Smith, Mrs. M. L. Moore, Mrs. Jesse Overton, Messrs. Geo. Donelson, Jeff Bragg, T. M. and Romulus Cotten, John Commons, Richard Perkins, Richard Armstrong, Allison Floyd, S. Williams, Wesley Mannins, Sherrily Cliff. A. B. S. CLUB. The A. B. S. Club met with Miss Bessie Mayberry Wednesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Bumbrey. Owing to the inclementy of the weather, only a few members were present, however, the evening was very pleasantly spent in games and music. Ices were served, afterwards the club adjourned to meet next Wednesday evening with Miss Anna L. Mayberry. A PRAISEWORTHY UNDERTAKING On the Part of the Junior College Class of Fisk University. As has hitherto been announced, the Junior College class of Fisk University will on Friday evening, March 11, in Fisk Memorial Chapel, render to the public the drama, "She Stoops to Conquer," by Dr. Goldsmith. Realizing that the matter is a topic attording much comment among our colored citizens of Nashville, we feel it a duty which we gladly accept, to make further mention of the tact. A lion reared in a cage in a menagerie under theash of a whip little realizes his mighty prowess, but if taken to his native jungle, he soon feels that he is the monarch of the forest. The sphere of the Negro has been so limited, so cramped, that he has seldom, if ever, known his real capabilities, but as his opportunities increase, he becomes more and more aware of the power which from necessity have been inert and dormant within him. We can easily trace the origin of this dramatic enort on the part of these young people, to the fact that they, on account of wholesome influences and fair opportunities, have come to realize that Divine Providence has endowed the Negro with a rich dramatic power as well as a musical power. This has often been felt, but so often the lack of encouragement and of facilities have nipped it in the bud. The Juniors of Fisk are fortunate in having conceived the idea where circumstances are favorable for its realization. This drama is one of five acts; it is pure and wholesome, of course, but at the same time lively, interesting, full of fun and merriment and true to the life of the times which it is meant to portray. It is well known in the dramatic world and is acknowledged to be difficult, requiring long and frequent rehearsals, and great ability. It was never intended to be appreciated by students alone; it is, like most of Dr. Goldsmith's plays, popular, intended for the entertain- ment of the masses and capable of the highest appreciation from all. A full attendance is expected when the drama shall be rendered for various reasons. Nashville is the Athens of the South; her colored citizens are intelligent and careful of the interests of their race. To lend their patronage to such an enterprise encourages the youth of the race. The aim and purposes of this dramatic effort are noble and lofty and on account of skillful direction, the amount of time and energy devoted to rehearsals and the ability of the participants, nothing short of a brilliant success is expected. We urge our worthy citizens to take advantage of this opportunity of doing and receiving good. SOCIETY BADGES All Styles and Prices. MEMBER LOCAL NO. 1 I.U.J.H. NEW YORK, N.Y.

Minstrel which is to be at some future date began practicing last Thursday night. It promises to be one of the best ever given by local talent. Mr. Ben Cornell, of St. Louis, Mo,. formerly of this city, returned home last week. The Madison Square Ciub gave a Valentine entertainment at Buck's Hall Monday night, and despite the inclement a large crowd attended. One of the most interesting events which has taken place in this city during the winter, was the debate un- der the auspices of the Local Negro Business League, at St. Peters A. M. BE. Church, Wednesday night, Feb. 9. ‘The subject under discussion was: “Resolved, that the small town or country district, furnishes a better op- portunity for the Negro business man than a large city.” Affirmative: Rev. G. W. Porter, Prof. H. R. Merry, Mr. §. A. Dabney. Negative: Dr. Robt. T. Burt, Rev. T. J. Goodall, Dr. S. Jeffer- son. A large and appreciative audi- ence greeted the debaters at the open- ing hour, and Rev. C. H. Boone, Rev. E. M. Seymour and Dr. C_ A. Kelly were asked, to preside over the meet- ing. Mrs. H.R. Merry and Miss Lelia Porter rendered a beautiful instru- mental duet, “The revel of the witch- es,” for the opening and Rev. S. W. ‘Walker made the invocation. Rev. G. W. Porter opened the debate for the affirmative by laying down seventeen propositions by which his side pro- posed to win the debate. The first speaker of the negative was Dr. R. T. Burt, who led off with a strong and forceful speech and while he occupied the floor, it looked as if there would be little chance for the affirmative to come in with a single point. While Dr. Burt makes no pretensons at ora- tory, on this occasion he totally forgot himself and swept away in oratorical flights that carried the audience to the point of believing that the large cities were the only haven for the Negro business man. Mr, S. A. Dabney followed for the affirmative and in his usual humorous vein, mixed with sound logic and good common sense, he kept the audience in an uproar of laughter and applause, all at the expense of the negative. Rev. T. J. Goodall was the next speaker for the negative. In his usual positive and forceful way, he delved into history, both ancient and modern, to prove the contention of his side of the debate. His strong augu- ment showed much research, finally taking his seat amid rounds of ap- plause, Prof. H. R. Merry came uext for the affirmative and delivered one of the most logical and pointed address: es of the evening. Prof. Merry made it hard for his antagonists answering their auguments in a most pointed manner, then clinching some telling points for the affirmative, and at the close was greeted with succeeding rounds of applause. The last speaker for the negative was Dr. S. Jefferson, who was logical, pointed and funny in the presentation of his side of the ar- gument. He took every possible ad vantage of the situation and was cheered to the echo on his witticisms and pointed remarks, An Attorney General could not have retorted with a stronger rebuttal than did the Doc tor upon this occasion. Kev. G. W. Porter made the last speech for the affirmative, which closed the debate Dr. Porter is known as an orator, and upon this occasion, he was at his best He seemed to have thought that one of h's very best efforts would be nec essary on this occasion, for his oppo nents had used well their opportuni ty. After a few catchy anecdotes at the expense of the negative, he went into the argument in a way which showed plainly that he meant to wir if-possible. He exhibited a store of information as to the opportunity of the Negro business man in_ small towns and country districts. He was interrupted with applause from the be ginning to the end of his address, and at the close, was greeted with an ova tion from the audience. This close¢ the very interesting debate and the 4udges retired to make up thelr ver dict. During the intermission, Mrs H. R. Merry and Miss Lelia Porter ren dered, another beautiful piano duet to the delight of all present and wer encored several times but as the eve ning was growing late, simply bows their acknowledgement. — Tmportan remarks touching thé’work of the Lo cal Negro Business League were mad by Dr. R./D.

The Primary aim of intellectual growth at Roger Williams is to pre- pare young men and young women to do things, to get results. To accom- plish this, the literary phase of the college life must be observed. Roger Williams, then, is forging her way back into foremost ranks as a literary factor. The fact is, there must be instilled within the breast of every ambitious youth, nowadays, the power of speech and jesture that he may be able to meet the requirements and demands of the world inasmuch as his intellectual breadth and depth must be in bold evidence. The Glee Club, therefore, of Roger Williams University, umder the direc: tion of Prof. A. M, Jackson, will en- tertain at Pleasant Green Baptist Church, West Jefferson street, Feb. 14, 1910, at 8 p. m. Readings from Dunbar wi.l be the especial features, other numbers, however, will be sand wiched to add the finer graces to the occasion that our many friends and hearers may enjoy the effulgency 0 oratory and wit incident to the rendi tion of the various numbers. All are cordially invited to be present. Ad mission 10 cents. FIRESIDE SCHOOL NOTES.

D., pas- tor of First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, was introduced by Dr. G. W. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry Medical College. The eioquent and logical discourse was in part as fol lows: “And Jehovah said unto Mo- ses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? ‘speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.” (xodus 14: 15.) He pictured a wandering people driv- en into a strange country because of famine, failing to grasp opportuni- ties; became enslaved. They re- mained until the Death Angel waved his dark wing over the land and brought deliverance. Said the speak- er: “A race must use present advan- tages in order to be prosperous and sucessful, thus prepare for future emergencies. The race is strong, happy and progressive which pre- pares for future life. Young rien should grasp every opportunity which caters to their welfare or the welfare of the race, buy for themselves homes, have a voice in the communi- ty, stand for something. In the days of youth repare for the evil, dark and rainy days. If the young men of today cannot be trained into honor. able manhood, the race cannot at tain success.

An opinion is of value or worthless, as it proves to be correct or incorrect. A patient who has suffered the removal of his appendix when he should have had a kidney picked out, gathers no solace from the memory that the physician who made the wrong diagnosis has devoted fifteen years to study in Germany and has a string of learned letters after his moniker. Nevertheless, in seeking an opinion on any subject, it is natural and sensible for the seeker to go to some man who has studied and had experience in the subject concerning which an opinion is desired. The opinion may be no better, or not so good as that offered by the merest "blob of scum," but the chances are that it will be. Therefore, in considering the relative merit of James J. Jeffries and Jack Johnson, the opinions of those men who have made reputations in the ring or have had wide experience in handling fighters should be worth more than that of the casual bartender or street car conductor. There are many such men, notably James J. Corbett, who firmly believes Jeffries will defeat the Negro if the fighters ever come together. These men have all the requisites of good sense and ring experience to make their opinions of high value. There are other men of similar qualifications who believe Johnson will beat Jeffries. It is of these men and their opinions I wish to speak, because among a large part of the public interested in boxing it has come to be the fashion to treat Johnson lightly and laugh at his pretensions to prowess when Jeffries is concerned. To begin with, Billy Madden, who ought to know as much about fighting and fighters as any man in the country, thinks Johnson has a great chance. He does not believe it possible that Jeffries can come back. Tommy Ryan, one of the cleverest fighters who ever put on a glove, was quoted recently to the effect that Johnson looks better than Jeffries to him. Ryan once trained Jeffries, and to him many credit the instruction which developed the famous Jeffries crouch. True, it is said, Ryan and Jeffries have never been friendly in the last few years, and some persons insinuate that Ryan's opinion may be biased for this reason. John L. Sullivan has said he does not believe the fight will be on the level. He went further and remarked that if it was Johnson would defeat Jeffries, as the latter could never come back. Joe Gans, as clever a lightweight as ever fought, is a strong supporter of Johnson. This is natural, you say, perhaps, but listen: "I want to say," says Gans, "that I am not favoring Johnson because we are of the same color. If I thought Jeff could whip Johnson I would be one of the first to express that conviction. I have been in the game too long to allow sentiment to cut any figure. "Johnson will enter the ring with no fear of losing to Jeff. That, you must admit, is a great asset in a championship battle. In fact, he figures this fight will be the easiest in his career. This may not please Jeff's admirers, but it is the plain truth. When they start you can go broke Jack will use all his cleverness to prevent Jeff landing in the early rounds with that terrible right that has wrecked so many good men. That means that Johnson will keep on the defensive until he thinks Jeffries has lost his strength and is having trouble with his wind. "When Jack is satisfied that he holds the upper hand, then he will change his tactics and try to beat Jeff down with those sharp uppercuts and stinging jabs that will take the big fellow's energy and leave him a mark for the colored man." William A. Brady, although he does not pick Johnson, seems to lean towards the colored man in sizing up the battle. And this despite the fact he believes Jeffries will come back. Brady knows as much about fighting and fighters as the best of them. "The talk that Jeffries will not be able to come back and get into shape to fight Johnson is ridiculous," says he. "But he will have to be better than ever he was to beat Johnson. The big Negro is the greatest fighter Jeffries ever faced. I have seen Johnson fight, and, ake it from me, he is there with everything. He has the best left hand of any big fellow the ring ever produced. "Don't let them gull you with stuff about Johnson having climbed to the top at the expense of little men. I think Stanley Ketchel could have whipped Tom Sharkey in his best days, and you know that Sharkey went twenty-five rounds with Jeffries and gave him all that he could attend to. "Johnson is a better man than Peter Jackson ever was, and the big Aus- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1910.

You will hear a lot of talk to the effect that Jeffries defeated the greatest crop of heavyweights the ring ever produced. Fitz, Sharky and Corbett are pronounced superior to Burns, Ketchel, and the Fitz Johnson defeated. This kind of talk does not appeal to me. I think that the fellows of to-day are cleverer, faster, and can hit harder than the big ones Jeffries flattened out." Brady goes on to say he does not think Jeffries will be in the least nervous, and winds up with the remark that he thinks Johnson will be able to force Jeffries to do the leading, and that it will be inter sting to see how Jeffries conducts himself when he has to go after the Negro. Many persons will tell you that Brady and Jeffries had differences in the past and that the former has a dislike for the latter. This may be true, but still you must credit the man who acts as a critic with being above any partiality which personal dislike might be supposed to arouse. In view of what the men mentioned above have said in regard to Johnson's chances, it must be palpable to the reader I made no mistake when I said some weeks ago that as the date of the fight neared Johnson's chances of winning have been given more and serious consideration. His popularity, if I may use the word, has been and is constantly on the increase, and this in the face of many unpleasantly little incidents in police courts which are not calculated to make even a pugilist look good to his followers. If you wish to realize how really wonderful is the change towards Johnson, just recall the remarks you heard one year ago, shortly after Johnson had defeated Tommy Burns. His claims to championship were ridiculed everywhere by nearly everybody. The one remark you heard in every place where sporting men gather, and which you saw in almost every newspaper. This Stock consists of the very best makes such as the WorldRenowned Kimball of which there are over 200,000 in use, Steinway & Sons, Hallet & Davis, Whitney, Hinze, Dunbar, Arion Schaefer, Marshall, Rembrandt and many more both new and used.

CONIBEAR, "Please mention THE NASHVILLE "Please mention THE NASHVILLE GLOBE when visiting this store." was, "Say, what would Jeffries do to that black man, eh?" You still hear this remark frequently enough, but you do not hear it from those who are best educated in sport. The more they have thought of Johnson and the more they have seen of Jeffries in his theatrical venture, the less prone they are to laugh at Johnson's chances, even if they believe the Californian will win. The idea no longer prevails that Jeffries will frighten Johnson to death or that he will make him jump out of the ring. To-day it is likely the best informed, even of Jeffries' adherents, believe their man has got the work of his life cut out for him. SPRINGFIELD NOTES. Mrs. Ermine Darden has la grippe.

One of the most enjoyable occasions witnessed in Springfield in a long time was the old-fashioned candy pulling given by Mrs. Chas. Suggs last Thursday night for the benefit of the A. M. E. Church. A prize was offered for the best color and design. Miss Beulah Mai Garrett, whose design was a serpent without a tongue, won the prize. Mr. Harrison Shook made a Diplodacus and would have won the prize if he had not failed in making its head and neck and feet and legs and tail and body. But Dr. Cunningham would have been a sure winner if he could have spared time enough to pull his candy sufficiently, and had candy enough left to make what he attempted. The Doctor certainly likes candy. Mr. Eaton Parchmint has recently been awarded the contract to carry the mail from the trains to the post of office. FIRE AT KITTRELL COLLEGE.
