THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. V. FISK QUARTETTE MAKING ENVIABLE RECORD OUT EAST Receiving Glad Hand at Every Turn. PEOPLE DELIGHTED WITH THE FOLK LORE MUSIC—AMERICAN DEAN AGAIN GIVES IT HIGH PRAISE—MANY PLACES OF INTEREST VISITED BY THE QUARTETTE—GRAND CONCERT GIVEN IN NEW YORK—MR. BURCH, OF NASHVILLE, PRESENT—LARGE PLANTATION CULTIVATED EXCLUSIVELY BY NEGROES. The last few days of our trip have been as full of interest to us that it seemed the folks at home would not be averse to reading about our experience. We left the snow and the 28 degrees below zero weather of Vermont and reached Boston for the last time this season on Feb. 19th. That same afternoon we took train for Fall River, Mass., where we were to remain until Monday evening. It was night when we arrived and good comfortable beds awaited our arrival at the splendid Y. M. C. A. building. Fall River is the third city in Massachusetts and the largest manufacturer of cotton goods in the country. In the morning we took a trolly for Somerset, Mass., a half hour's ride, where Dr. Merrill is now pastoring a real Yankee church. We furnished music and rousements for his morning services. Rev. Myers had been invited to preach, but his inherent modesty and retiring disposition would not allow him to do so, consequently I turned preacher and took as my text, "The Negro," which I divided into the following heads: (a) "Dr. Merrill;" (b) "The South;" (c) "Fisk University;" (d) "Folk Songs." You can easily see it was not hard to get a twenty-minutes sermon out of the subject and its sub-divisions. We soon learned that our good friend, the ex-President, was greatly loved by his people, for references to him were met with hearty response not without tears. We also learned that he is a power in this part of the country, still working for Fisk. He and Mrs. Merrill are well and happy and most beautifully situated in their new home. After the service we all, Dr. Merrill included, came back to Fall River for dinner. At 3 o'clock we sang to 1,000 men in the Y. M. C. A. meeting held in the Bijou Theater, and at night sang in the Central Congregational Church. The next day we took lunch with Dr. and Mrs. Merrill, having a real old Fisk time, as Dunbar says: "We et and drunk our potion Till dare wuzent nothin' lef'; We felt jis lak new sassage, We mos nigh stuffed to def." In the evening we gave a concert in the Congregational Church, and although it rained quite hard, we had an audience of (1,302) one thousand three hundred and two. To meet our next engagement we had to take train at 11:30 p. m. for Providence, where we caught the flyer for New York at 1:20 a. m. When we woke up we were at 125th street, New York. Our business in New York was to sing at the Institute of Musical Art on 5th avenue and Twelfth street. Dr. Frank Damrosek is at the head of this school. The special occasion was a lecture by Dr. Henry E. Krehbiel, the dean of American Critics upon "Folk Song." We were to illustrate, by our singing, certain points peculiar and original with our own music. I shall not take space to go over his lecture, but shall state that he maintained successfully according to my way of thinking, that our music is original with us and is really a folk music, the only folk music original in America. I hope sometime to take up this lecture in detail. In the evening we sang at the banquet of the Lutheran Association, in Hotel Astor, where about seven hundred southerners met. "Kentucky Home," "Suwane River," "Maryland, my Maryland," "Dixie" and other Southern airs were played by the orchestra to your hearts content. Hopkinson Smith was the main speaker of the occasion, and what he told the TO THE MEMORY OF JOSEPH O. BATTLE, WHO DEPARTED THIS LIFE MARCH 3. 1909. BY NELLIE BATTLE-EASTERLIN, CHATTANOOGA, TENN. If it be sad to speak of treasures gone, Of sainted genius called too soon away, Of light from this world taken, while it shone Yet kindly onward to the perfect day— How shall our grief, if mournful these things be, Flow forth, O thou of many gifts to thee? Hath not thy voice been here amongst us heard? And that deep soul of gentleness and power, Have we not felt its breath in every word, Wont from thy lips as Herman's dew to shower? Yes! in our hearts thy fervent thoughts have burned— Of heaven they were, thither have returned. Praise! for yet one more name with power endowed To cheer and guide us, onward as we press; Yet one more image on the heart bestowed To dwell there, beautiful in holiness! Thine, Brother, thine! whose memory from the dead Shines as the star which to the Saviour led. public about New York's bad manners and so on, was enough to make an Indian's hair curl. Our fellow-townsman, Mr. Watkins Crockett, the banker, occupied a prominent place at the banquet, and made it his business to let us know that he knew us and was most hearty in his applause after our songs. Prof. Watterman was a guest of this function. We jumped from New York back to Plymouth, Mass. We stood upon Plymouth Rock and saw in the distance Standish Shore, where stands a monument to Miles Standish; saw the Island where the Pilgrims held their first services; the site where the first house stood and the burying ground of the forefathers. We stood upon the spot where, six weeks after the landing, the guard saw from the watchhouse the first Indian, and also the spot where the treaty was made with Massasoit. In the pictures of the "Landing of the Pilgrims," we always, or almost always, see an Indian in the group. This is a historical lie. The Pilgrims never saw an Indian for six weeks after they landed. In this town of Plymouth, I met a man who gave me a seat in a rocking chair which has been in continual use since 1640. He had other interesting relics and in his conversation he told me that he was greatly interested in Negroes because he had found them to be the most reliable workmen he could get. He employed sometimes as many as four hundred at a time on his cranberry hoys. These Negroes came from Cape Verde Islands and spoke Portuguese. His overseers and foremen are all colored and give him the best of specially was 6 feet 2 inches, who has as fine a brain as any man he ever met. At one time he had a telephone system put through his plantation by experts, and this Negro went along with them and watched everything they did. A little later on it became necessary to make an extension of the system. "Manuel," the proprietor said, (for that is the Negro's name), "I think I shall have to send to Boston for the mechanics to come out to put in this extension." "You don't need to," was the answer. "Can you do it?" "Yes." This Negro sat down, made out the bill of material and put in that telephone extension from beginning to end, and it is just as well done as the other. The proprietor also stated that with only a rope and a pole, Manuel has been compelled to correct the spe- (Continued on Page 8.) NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1910. NEEDS LABORATORY SAYS PROF. F. G. SMITH. NUMBER OF PUBLIC SCHOOL PUPILS INCREASING — BETTER WORK BEING DONE. Prof. H. C. Weber, Superintendent of the Nashville City Schools: Dear Sir: In compliance with your request, I am pleased to present for your consideration the following report of the progress and present condition of the Pearl High School. It gives me pleasure to state that we have had a prosperous year and that the school is growing in importance and worth. The Pearl High School has become quite a factor in this community, its popularity has increased, and its patrons seem proud of the work that has been done. The faculty consists of a principal and four teachers, who are making an effort to keep abreast of the times in means and methods and to keep up with the trend of general progress. Some splendid work has been done in all four of the departments, but the best work could not be done in the scientific department for lack of proper facilities. It is my conviction, based on years of experience and observation, that our pupils find more difficulty in comprehending the natural sciences than any other subjects embraced in our course. A lack of suitable appliances that difficulty. Work in the sciences, as you are aware, should be conducted on the laboratory plan. Thus far our work in chemistry and physics has been mostly "rote" work. The children have been reading about things that they ought to have been doing. If children are to be taught to think and to do, if they are to learn by the "doing" method instead of the "book" method, a laboratory becomes an imperative necessity. You, Mr. Superintendent, and the Board of Education, have shown a broad generosity in maintaining and supporting a Negro high school, for which you have the profoundest thanks of the entire Negro population. But a consciousness of my duty and a knowledge of the urgent need of some improvement in this department, compels me to bring this matter to your attention, hoping that the time is not far distant when you will be in a position to give it some consideration. The class-room work of the pupils has been good. I cannot say that I am perfectly satisfied with results. Satisfaction may mean stagnation. Some of the pupils have failed to use their time to the best advantage, consequently many of them have been left in the grades. But on the whole I believe that the work of the year has been commendable. As an evidence of the "preparedness" of our pupils, I might state that the work they do in the High School is accepted without question in the Negro colleges about the city. In September, 1907, manuel training was made a part of the curriculum in the public schools for Negro children. A center was established at Pearl. Two departments were created—a cooking department for the girls and a woodworking department for the boys. Two special teachers, trained for this work, were placed in charge. This was a step in advance and marks an epoch in the life of the school. Nothing in our history has been so stimulative, so incentive to good work, and so beneficial in its practical results as these new departments This closes the twentieth year of my connection with the public schools of Nashville and the fourteenth year as principal of the High School. During these fourteen years as principal I have seen a steady improvement in the behavior of the children and a constant growth in their knowledge. Our numbers have likewise increased. The High School was organized in September, 1886, with one teacher and fifteen pupils. The first class to graduate was composed of seven pupils. Our teaching force now includes five teachers, a special course of study and 211 pupils, which is the largest enrollment of any Negro high school south of the Ohio River. Our list of graduates numbers 370, and this figure is increasing annually without any deterioration in quality. The surest test of the usefulness of a school is the work of its graduates. Thirty teachers in Nashville schools are graduates of Pearl, and they appear to be rendering acceptable service. In conclusion, Mr. Superintendent, permit me to say that I do not feel that we have yet reached perfection, but we are striving toward that ideal. Respectfully, F. G. SMITH, Principal. G. O. P. MOGULS ASSEMBLE IN NASHVILLE TODAY BELIEVED THAT SITUATION IN TENNESSEE POLITICS WILL BE GONE OVER—INDICATIONS OF A SPLIT IN DEMOCRATIC RANKS—ENCOURAGES REPUBLICAN LEADERS—LIKELY TO JOIN HANDS WITH THE STATE-WIDE DEMOCRATS—TWO FACICTIONS TO DIVIDE THE SPOILS—NEGRO VOTE COMES IN FOR CONSIDERATION. Newell Sanders, Chairman of the State Republican Executive Committee, will be seen in Nashville within a few daws, probably Friday, to confer with Republicans in regard to the political situation in Tennessee and to reach a decision as to a date for a meeting of the committee. Following the decisions of the Supreme Court handed down last Saturday local Republicans wrote to Mr. Sanders requesting that he come to Nashville for a conference. Replies were received yesterday to the effect that he would be in Nashville some time this week. Local Republicans say they are very sanguine of their prospects for this year. The policy of the party will probably be to wait until the Democrats have settled their end of the political business and then nominate a strong man for Governor. Chairman Sanders is quoted as saying that some Democrats are predicting two Democratic candidates for Governor and that in that event the Republicans will have an excellent chance to make a winning fight Pending the calling together of the State Committee things are in a more or less unsettled state among the Republicans. Few private conferences have been held and nothing definite is known as to who will be the Republican nominees. It is understood that the local Evans following will advocate either Robert S. Sharp, John Overall, or J. A. Fowler for the Governorship. The Republicans figure that in the present condition of politics they can make a strong bid for the Governorship on a law enforcement platform. The question of the Negro vote is causing some discussion and as to just what steps will be taken toward inducing the Negro to vote is not known. Among local Republicans there is a difference of opinion, some being in favor of excluding the Negro altogether, while others are in favor of making overtures as to the better element of Negro citizens. IMPROVING SLOWLY. Mrs. Isobelle Keeble, of Seymour avenue, who was rushed to a local infirmary last Sunday morning for an operation, is resting very well at this time. She had been suffering intensely for ten days or more, and after a consultation with the attending physicians an operation was thought advisable, provided her physique was strong enough. Mrs. Keeble is a sister of Mr. Louis K. Thomas, of the Baptist Publishing House. ANNOUNCEMENT Mrs. Elizabeth Haydon, of Evansville, Ind.. has issued cards announcing the marriage of her daughter, Lillian Sunshine, to Mr. Wm. Hobbs Childress.

Washington, D. C., February 17, 1910.—The official definitions of the terms "dwelling house" and "family," with reference to the population schedule to be carried by the enumerators in the Thirteenth United States Census, beginning April 15th next, are explained in the Census Bureau's lengthy printed instructions to the canvassers. It is pointed out that the answers should relate only to conditions existing on April 15th, the "Census Day." The words "dwelling house" and "family" are, for census purposes, given a much wider application than they have in ordinary speech. A "dwelling" is defined as a place in which, at the time of the census, one or more persons regularly sleep. It need not be a house in the common meaning of the word but may be, for example, a room in a factory, store, or office building, a loft over a stable, a canal boat, a tent, or a wigwam. The term also includes a hotel, boarding or lodging house, a tenement or apartment house, an institution or school building, if persons regularly sleep there, as well as the ordinary dwelling house. A "family" as a census term, may mean a group of individuals who occupy jointly a dwelling place or part of a dwelling place, or an individual living alone in any place of abide. All the occupants and employees of a hotel, if they regularly sleep there, make up a single family, because they occupy one dwelling place, and persons living alone in cabins, huts, or tents; persons occupying a room or rooms in public buildings, stores, warehouses, factories, or stables; and persons 'sleeping on river boats, canal boats, barges, etc., if they have no other usual place of abode, are regarded as families. The enumerators are required to enter on the schedule the name of every person whose usual place of abode on April 15, 1910, was with the family or in the dwelling place for which the enumeration is being made. The head of the family is to be entered first; then the wife; next the children, whether sons or daughters, in the order of their ages; and lastly, all other persons living with the family, whether relatives, boarders, lodgers, or servants. The head of the family, whether husband or father, widow or unmarried person of either sex, is to be designated by the word "head;" and the other members of a family as wife, father, mother, son, daughter, grandson, daughter-in-law, uncle, aunt, niece, boarder, lodger, servant, etc., according to the particular relationship which the person bears to the head of the family. HARRY A. LUCK. MUSICAL TEA Mrs. P. R. Burrus and Miss Mary V. Hill were joint hostesses of the Fisk Club at the home of the latter. In the drawing-room Miss Harriet Hill dispensed tea to each guest upon arrival, after which all repaired to the parlors where a most interesting business meeting was held. The Club was favored with a piano, solo by Miss Flora Wright and a vocal solo by Miss Ella Hendry, both were faultlessly rendered and greatly enjoyed. Yellow cards tied with blue ribbons were passed around, and all entered into a lively musical contest. Sixteen questions were read, and all were to write a musical term in answer to each. The judges were Mesdames Burrus, Geo. Moore and Miss Hendry. Those answering all questions correctly were Mrs. S. W. Crosthwaite and Miss Lillian A. Bright. They were awarded a harp, and a Steinway Piano (minature) respectively. After this an inviting menu of two courses was served in which the color scheme of gold and b'ue was carried out. Among those present besides the hostesses were Mesdames W. H. Hodgkins, J. E. Miller, R. Ewing, F. A. Stewart, Sallie Sawyers, Hill, S. W. Crosthwaite, G. W. Moore, Winrow, Prof. D. A. Scribner, Misses E. J. Pinkard, Ellen Hendry, Hattie McLemore, Harriet Hill Flora Wright, F. M. Banks, L. A. Banks, L. A. Bright, Lucy B. White and Elizabeth B. Moore. FISK DEBATING TEAMS SELECTED.

GET OUT OF [x] / SUN. A fine little pamphlet is being circulated in Nashville, the production of Rév. I. H. Jones, pastor of the Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church, which deals with the facts as found in Nashville and vicinity. He says: "I call your attention to the Publishing House of the National Baptist Publishing Board, located in Nashville, Tenn. It is the most mammoth undertaking in the South. It is the one significant step in race progress. It is not content with merely maintaining existence, but is helping hundreds of others as it helps itself. Dr. R. H. Boyd, the champion of that cause, has evidently immortalized the motto: "Lift as you climb." There are several hundred persons employed getting good salaries. They are preparing to serve the race as the race serves them. Here is the idea of self-help. It is the beginning of the new self-supporting race, employing the unemployed Negro, selling to the buying Negro and buying from the selling Negro. It is very much like living at home and not boarding. The above-mentioned Publishing House pays out upward of three hundred dollars daily, and not one white man in its employ! No Negro need feel any uneasiness when the business white men or lady stenographers come around. It is a jewel in the crown of race progress, and I pray long life for Dr. Boyd, that all the dreams of his life may come true! No doubt if he lives twenty years longer he will succeed in painting a picture that will be the race sentinel. The A. M. E. Sunday-School Union and the Publishing House of the C. M. E. Church are in Tennessee, and are doing good work. The publishing houses all over this country are significant strides in race progress by reason of the help they lend to the brother in the ditch. Remember that the institution that helps men by helping them to help themselves make more for the good of the race than anything else. It is never best to give a man a start to money, but rather give him a job, so he can make the start himself. Never give any man a dollar to help him but give him a dollar job and let him make his dollar. That is getting out of his sun. The greatest help that the race needs now is not dollars donated, but jobs out of which they can get the dollars." DR. TOWNSEND DENOUNCES DANCING AND THE DAN- CING SCHOOLS. Scores Teachers for Visiting Dance Venue, Great Grounds Hear Him. The monster meeting of the Y. M. C. held at the First Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon was an unqualified success. The spacious auditorium of the church was filled to over-flowing with men and women anxious to hear the great lecture by the gifted speaker, Dr. A. M. Townsend. Representatives from our three great universities were present in large numbers. A number of young ladies from Fisk University in charge of Mrs. S. W. Crosthwaite, a teacher in the university, attended in a body. Young And ALL KINDS OF HOUSEHOLD FURNISHINGS. We can furnish your home on easy payments. No. 318 Broadway. men from both Walden and Roger Williams Universities came in large numbers. In fact men and women in every walk of life came through the rain to hear this wonderful address. Shortly after three o'clock the program began. Mr. L. S. Gray, choristor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church led the singing while Miss H. E. Caruthers presided at the piano. Rev. Moppin of Jackson, Temple read the scripture lesson, followed by a prayer by Prof. H. H. Wright, Dean of the faculty of Fisk University. Next came the principal feature of the meeting, the address of Dr. Townsend. The speaker held his audience almost speilbound for more than forty minutes, in which time he told of the evils of the dance and the public dancing hall. Many instances well-known to the audience, were cited to show the pernicious effects and evil tendencies of the dance. He depicted vividly the picture of a girl in humble circumstances, bartering away her honor that she might be called the queen of the ball. The doctor scored the public school teachers and Sunday-school teachers for being connected with local dancing schools. They are unfit to train children, declared the speaker, the audience seemed to have been in hearty sympathy with him on this point. At the close of the lecture Dr. S. S. Caruthers rendered a solo to the delight of all present. The officers and members of the association were gratified at having so large a crowd out to hear the speaker. It is the intention of the association to bring before the people the best men possible. Among the ministers present were Bishop C. H. Phillips, Prof. H. T. Kealing, Rev. T. W. Johnson, of Clark memorial; Rev. P. Preston Taylor, of Lea Avenue Christian Church and Rev. W. S. Ellington, pastor of the First Baptist Church. Watch the Globe for announcement for next mammouth meeting. "HIS MAJESTY'S LAST GREAT BALL." An interesting sermon was delivered last Sunday, February 27, at 11 a. m. at the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North, by the pastor, Rev. W. S. Lillington, D. D. A large audience was present, notwithstanding the inclementy of the weather. Rev. Ellington took for his text: "Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand." (Dan. 5:1.) Theme: "His Majesty's Last Great Ball." His discourse in part was as follows: "The most interesting period of a race's history is the time which marks their struggles. Babylon was now the center of civilization; she had reached the zenith of her glory. She was a city of beauty, the people of Babylon had reached the age of ease and licentiousness; and Belshazzar was king of that wonderful country of which Babylon was the chief city. Sin put its fingers into the moral eyes of its victims, and therefore they have eyes and see not. Sin is selfish, not anxious as to the welfare of its victim. Belshazzar was a wicked leader. He not only ruined his own, but also the lives of thousands of others. He stands as an example of bad influences, which all should shun. Now, to the ball. Invitations are sent out to all of the officials and learned men of that great kingdom. "Come to the great ball." Two classes of people we will always find, one to uplift the other to destroy, and trample upon their weaker brother that they may be exalted. The latter was present at the "Ball." Soft and sweet was the night. Nature is asleep, and quiet, yet sparkling in all of her splendor. The glittering stars move on in their spheres in obedience to the command of their creator. The call of the nightbird is heard, as if seeking its mate, the moon, fulfaced, wrapped in its silver tissue, sends forth its glowing sheen, over the swinging gardens of Babylon. The palace all aglow with magnificent lights and fine embellishments. Then comes the guests adorned with gold, precious stones and fine silks. The king then drinks to the health of the state; then all drink and drunkardness pervades every bosom, they are lost in debauchery, the music, comes the dance, and all of the evils in their turn.

Nashville God has set a day in which he will judge the world, in the case of Babylon the idea is carried out, all evil will be destroyed even as Babylon was. While they were yet in the midst of the Great Ball, every soul was filled with evil designs, and none were thinking of God. Suddenly all became awe stricken, women fainted, men thought themselves lost, the king's knees began to sink under him. All eyes were turned to an invisible hand writing on the wall. Yet, none dared to stir, till the king called for the wise men to interpret the mysterious letters on the wall. All failed, and a decree was issued "destroy all of the learned men, if they cannot interpret the writing on the wall." It was then that Daniel was found and the king was told that his kingdom would be destroyed and his soul would appear before its maker. At that moment the Medes entered the gates of the great city, and Babylon was destroyed because of her ungodliness. May the ungodly turn and find rest for their souls before their fate is inscribed on the wall in like manner." VITAL CENSUS QUESTIONS. Enumerator. Washington, D. C. February 21, 1910.—The character of the questions concerning ‘color or race, age at last birthday, conjugal condition, number of years of present marriage, the num- ber of children born, and the number of children now living, to be asked by the enumerators in the ‘Thirteenth United States Census, beginning April 15, next, is clearly explained in the printed instructions to the census- takers, which have been prepared by the United States Census Bureau. Alt the questions relate solely to condi- tions existing on the “Census Day,” which is April 15. Answers relative to color or race are to be entered on the schedule as “W "for white; “B” for black; “Mu” for mulatto; “Ch” for Chinese; “Jp” -for Japanese; end “In” for Indian. For Census-purposes, the term “black” (B) includ ng a1 negroes of full blood while “muiaito” (Mu) includes all negroes not of full blood, but having any perceptible trace of negro blood. As to age at last birthday of the person enumerated, the enumerators are cautioned that this question calls only for the age in completed years at the last birthday. Therefore a person whose exact age on April 15 is 17 years, 11 months, and 5 days should be returned simply as 17, be- cause that is his age at his last birth. day. In the case of children not two years old, the age should be given in completed months, expressed as twelfths of a year. Thus, the age of a child 3 months old should be en- tered as 3-12, a child 7 months old as 7-12, a child 15 months old as 1 3-12, etc. If a child is not yet a month old the enumerators are to enter the age as 0-12, A child who is just a year old on the 17th of April, 1910, should nevertheless be returned as 11-12, because that is its age in com- pleted months on April 15. The enum. erators are told to take particular pains to get the exact age of children. If the person was born out side the United States, the enumerator is to enter the country (not city or dis- trict in which he was born. Instead of Great Britain, he is told to write Irland, England, Scotland, or Wales. In the case of persons born in the double kingdom of Austria-Hungary the enumerator is cautioned to be sure to distinguish Austria from Hungary. In the case of those born in Austria proper, they are to dis- tinguish also those born in Bohemia and those born in Austrian Poland. They should write Finland and not Russia for a person born in Finland, The inquiry as to the number of children born applies to women who are now married, or who are widowed, or divorced. ‘The answer should give the total number of children that each such woman has had during her life- time. It should include, therefore, the children by any former marriage as well as by her present marriage. It should not include the children which her present husband may have had by a former wife, even though they are members of her family. Stillborn children are not to be included. ‘The question concerning the num- ber of children now living refers only to the children which the woman her- self has had. The enumerator is re- quired to include alt of these children that are living, no matter whether they are living in his district or some- where else, HELIOTROPE CIRCLE.

Felows Auditorium, under thé auspices of the Bureka Dancing Class, was a great success. The hall was crowded by half-past 9 o'clock. Promptly at half-past ten Mr. Liner announced he cake walk. There were chly three entries: the Alabama Whirlwind and Miss Jonnie Lowe; Mr, George Hix and Miss stella Cordon; Mr. Richard Armstrong and Miss Sarah Henderson. The partici- mants were closely watched, but after several exhibitions of some high-class ‘aneing, the judges awarded the cake © Mr, Richard Armstrong and lady. Mr, Hix is a very clever dancer and vas a close contestant. The Whirl- yind’s specialty with the hat was worth the admission to see and brought orth much applause from the audi- nee, Tae daneing was very good nd the evening was much enjoyed.

Hubbard Hos- tal Fund, was rendered at the Audi- torlum under the direction of Miss Mabel E. Scott, of the Muste Depart- ment of Walden University. In this vlay perfect preparedness and a uni- form array of talent were exhibited. every member thoroughly cognizant as far as his part was concerned and showed ease in his delivery and stage manner. Tt has been heretofore a question as to the ability of the colored peo- ple for the true performances that are the stimuli of true life. No better occasion could have presented itself than that involved in the exhibition of the real life in such a section as West Virginia. Mr. Ovid Bledsoe, wno acted the part of a conservative judge and mill owner, stood with his original claims until he was convinced of his wrong—a most thrilling featuire in the whole play. Mr.’ Bledso must be commended for his elastic mem- ory and power of delivery, Mr. Clifford Terry, who played the part of a villain all through the Dra- ma, did this in the spirit characteris- tie of high-class decetvers, Mr. T. 0, Sullivan, who unluckily became the victim of a cruel attack, became finally the man of choice. Mrs. A, M. Townsend in the part of Mrs. Hansell, the judge’s wife, nayed a remarkable part—her pa- ‘tience all through the scene wag a feature meriting due commendation, Mer clear, plain and distinct arttcu- lation made her popular with he au- dience, Miss Maude Moses, who ts ripe with experience on the stage, was able to adapt herself to every phase of the play. As Mrs. Hansell’s daugh- ‘ter she was content to put up with a'l the disadvantages in the absence of a father’s care, Messrs, Peters, Givens, Darden and Gilmore were indeed prominent fig- ures and executed their parts liber- ally. Mr. FD. Bradford, the Dutch cook of Judge Hansell, was as usual at his best. Mr, Bradford is espe- cially a favorite figure on the stage. The last u.ember deserving special mention is Miss Anita B. Scott, who acted the part of Miss Laura Bell, the judge's ward. In this romantic part Miss Scott showed due courage and steadfastness in her love for Henry Hansell and kept this up to the end. In no part of the play in which she was principal feature did she fail to demonstrate the love of a woman till finally the wrong was righted and she became the _legitl- mate member of the Hansell family. This beautiful drama was man- aged and actively carried out by the Misses Scott, to these ladies’ much credit is due for their untiring effort in bringing about so unique a play, the proceeds of which to be dedicated to a worthy cause, CHURCH: DIRECTORY. oe PENTECOSTAI, CHURCHES, Hourmtss, 60g Desifth Avenue, Ni—Rev.

FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1910. INDUSTRIAL TRAINING The American people in every section of our country are becoming to realize more and more how important it is to train children to work. The time was in the south when the rich people did not believe that it was necessary for their children to learn how to work with their hands. The high st literary and scientific education to be obtained was sought but little or no attention was given to the training of the hands. But that day has past, and now, if the father owns a mill he wants his son to know how to go into that mill and demonstrate to the employees how to get out of a machine its full capacity. The rich man sees to it that his boys know how to work. If the boy whose father is able to support him must learn to work with his hands, how much more necessary is it that the poor boy who must support himself know how; and especially is this true of the Negro. The boy who can take his diploma in one hand and his hammer and saw in the other, is ten to one better off than he who graduates without a knowledge of how to earn a living working at some trade. The introduction of manual training in the public schools is becoming more general every year, and in the county schools special attention is being given agricultural experiments. Tennessee is bending unusual energy along those lines at this time, and while the Negro schools have not as yet been as thoroughly equipped as is desired, we see tendency on the part of both state and city officials to spend more time and money in that direction. The Negro school children should be taught to work. No people can feel independent unless they know how to support themselves. A competent and reliable workman can always find a job; the demand to-day is greater than the supply. Prof. F. G. Smith, the principal of Pearl High School, this city, lays special stress, in his last annual report to the Board of Education, on the pressing need of appliances in the high school to show the pupils how to do with their hands what they read of in the text-books. That he is right in his cottentions goes without saying. Such appliances as he asks for would enable the teachers in the high school to send out from year to year graduates better prepared to be of service to the community. Knowing ```markdown ``` THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1910 how to work makes any one more inclined to be honest, sober and industrious. FELL SHORT OF AN ANSWER. In a recent issue we called attention to the fact that the committee appointed at the last session of the National Baptist Convention to investigate the holdings of its various boards was charged with having passed up all of the Negro lawyers in this city, while they were here, and to have employed a white man. We asked some one of the three Baptist papers published here to throw some light on the subject. We felt then that the people would like to know the facts in this case, and we are of the same opinion still. We are frank to admit that the GLOBE is very anxious to know. While the National Baptist Union, the official organ of the National Convention has so far been silent on the subject, The Clarion, an organ fostered by the Baptists of Tennessee and The National Baptist Review, an organ published by two of the Baptist boards operating here, both had a great deal to say on the subject in their last week's issues, but neither gave a satisfactory answer to our question. The Review was courteous enough to admit its inability to answer the question, and refers us to the members of the committee. The Clarion does not show the same willingness to surrender, but their statement is conflicting. The following is the tenor of The Clarion's explanation: "There is a time for race pride, but there is no time to sow seeds of race prejudice in a plain matter of business." In the same paragraph the following is said in way of conclusion: "The Globe cannot make us believe that the leading ministers from all sections of our country are guilty of having come in our midst and to have reflected upon the dignity of our legal profession in such a way as is charged." By reading the first quotation one would be led to believe that The Clarion was endeavoring to say, Yes, they employed a white man because there was not a Negro to be found who, in the judgment of the committee, was competent to serve them, but after reading the second quotation it seems that that paper is trying to say it was hardly possible for the gentlemen to have done such a thing. Our question was plain and could have been answered in a dozen words. As a servant of the people, we see it as our duty to look after their interests. If in our humble judgment a public official's actions are not in keeping with the will of the people, we believe that it is our duty to call attention to it. We are not seeking to be appointed referee nor to be delegated the power of attorney, but to learn whether or not the distinguished ministerial committee employed a white lawyer. If The Clarion cannot give that information the incident may be closed so far as they are concerned, if they desire that it be, and the Globe respectfully asks to be permitted to do its own closing. SIGN OF IDLENESS The axiom, "An idle brain is the devil's workshop," is as true to-day as when it was uttered. The predicament in which one of the teachers in our public schools finds himself is a fair example of what idleness will lead to. A man who keeps busy will not find time to engage in low practices. A teacher, to be successful, must be resourceful. Dr. C. V. Roman, editor of the Journal of the National Medical Association, writing on "Case-Reading," in the January-March issue, lays down a rule that would be a sure defense to any one who will follow his advice. The editorial reads as follows: CASE-READING. The physical wear and tare of the general practice of medicine tends to inhibit great mental effort. The irregularity tends to inure one to interruptions, promote routine and discourage progress. A doctor, especially if popular and successful, is apt to stand still professionally until the crust of conservatism renders him immune to the inoculation of new ideas. He seldom grows in intellectuality much above where he was graduated. This is the source of that chauvinism, which, when coupled with ignorance, narrow-mindedness, cupidity, or quackery produces dissension, disagreements, sects, pathies, etc.—the so-called different schools of medicine. The remedy for all this is reading and writing. "Reading maketh a full man and writing maketh an exact man." But how can a busy doctor find time to read and write? The answer is found in one little word of two syllables—method. Aimless reading is diverting and is, in a measure, profitable, intellectually, but methodical reading is necessary to make experience cumulative and bring wisdom with age. Every doctor carries a note book or prescription pad. He also has to deal with diseases periodically, or in schools, as it were. When dealing with certain diseases, just write that disease in your note book; typhoid fever, pneumonia, etc. When you get to your office tear out that leaf and stick it on a file. When your journals come in see if they have anything on the subject you have filed. In your leisure moments compare what you know on the filed subjects with what your text-books and journals say. Take brief bed-side notes of cases that interest or trouble you, and treat these notes the same way. One will thus in a few years become thoroughly cognizant of the different diseases that occur in his locality, the best method of treating them, etc., and at the same time cultivate a wider and wider acquaintance with medical literature. The Negroes of Denver, Colo., showed the true spirit in refusing to accept the back-door hospitality of the Laymen's Movement Committee who acquiesced in the action of the hotel keeper who had promised his waiters that they would not be required to wait on Negroes. It would have been better, however, had they informed the leading ones in the movement in the outset that they would not participate in their meeting. The day has not yet come when white men and black men can serve God under the same "vine and fig tree." The subject of dancing is receiving a great deal of attention nowadays. In a lecture last Sunday at one of the local churches Dr. A. M. Townsend convinced a large majority of an overflow meeting that the dance hall is not very far from predition. Politics are beginning to sprout in the Volunteer State, and will soon blossom in effulgence. The Negroes who have poll tax receipts will be good perfume to some body's rose. With a few days of sunshine the populace of this borough will forget old Mr. Groundhog. But it would be well to remember that March is capable of bringing him back to mind. The Tennessee Colored State Fair Association would do well to take note of the fact that time is passing steadily by. It behooves them to get busy, now. Senator Jeff Davis, of Arkansas, is in the middle of a bad fix. His feegrabbing fever has shown him to be a fit subject for the Ananias Club. Vardaman is down and out for a season at least. Let us hope that he will never get up again and be vigilant to keep him out. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS The honest, hard-working farmers of the country should have the sympathy of every other class. He is cursed and abused if he doesn't raise plenty of bread and other commodities and luxuries for our tables in the cities, but we are slow to praise him for an abundant crop, and again we curse him by paying the lowest price possible for it, yet patient and of long-suffering he plows deep while many of us in the cities sleep in order to have corn to sell and keep. Indeed he is the backbone of the whole.—The Reformer, Richmond, Va. * * * * The colored boys of McDowell don't need foreign political dignitaries or "moguls" to get us together. We are always together. We are the best and strongest organized set of felolws in the country. At any man wanting a position in the future that doubts this, all he has to do is to ask us for anything that conflicts with the best interests of our people and he will readily find out that we are truly together.—The McDowell Times, Keystone, W. Va. With no one to dun him each week or month for house rent; with no wood bills to meet, with corn, hay and cotton seed in his barn, with a sufficient number of milk cows to supply all the milk and butter necessary for family use and some to sell and occasionally for the pigs, with his barnyard full of laying hens, with a plenty of meat in his smokehouse and an abundance of potatoes in his kiln, who said that the farmer was worrying over the cost of living?—The Independent, Savanah, Ga. *** Politics The county and state politics is going to be warmer this year than in many years, since the disfranchisement of the Negro. An effort on the part of the colored people to qualify as electors will do no harm. The advantages to secure our franchise over the record of prejudice will be quite different this year. Our opinion is that the state will need all the votes possible this year to straighten out a bad condition that seems to be prevailing in Alabama. A serious and conservative consideration will be the very best for us during this turmoil of affairs. Men on all sides are looking for votes to put their ideas into effect and it is highly necessary that we assert every effort possible to be a part in helping to bring about whatever helpful change for the best government of our state.—Birmingham Reporter, Birmingham, Ala. --- The Negro race is on the verge of a great period of history making. Throughout the entire country the race is demonstrating a spirit to acquire property, get an education and give more attention to our friends, instead of our enemies. The numerous business projects, building of schools, erecting of church edifices, all indicate the spirit of unrest within. If the colored people would take the same interest in farming and business as they have in politics for the next twenty-five years, it is no telling as to what great things we could accomplish. The man who is intelligent, sober, industrious and refined will be respected by all people who possess good common sense. The progressive Negro is interesting the masses in becoming independent through industry and economy, knowing that these traits of character will bring all rights due at citizen in spite of racial prejudice.—The Informer, Urbana, Ohio. More business Establishments. There ought to be more business establishments in Memphis operated by our people. But, you say, there are too many now. No, you will not patronize them is the reason they are not a success. Throw your trade to them and let them widen out their place of business and all will be able to employ our boys and girls when they come out of school, but in case there be enough business places of our own we will be able to employ a number of them. So learn to support your own enterprises and institutions of all kinds and also your professional men. Stop saying you would not allow a Negro doctor in your house, or that a Negro lawyer cannot attend your case in court, or that you will not trade with So-and-So because he will not do this or that like white folks. Stop wanting something for nothing from your own business men. Stop all this stiffness and big-headedness and build each other up. The white people love to see you have race pride; that is, the better class of white people, and will credit you with having common sense.—The Bluff City News, Memphis, Tenn. * * * The Negro Banks. The article on the Negro banks of the country published on another page of this issue of the Journal and Guide will be a revelation to many. The Nashville Globe has done the race a great service by compiling and publishing statistics concerning the banks of the race. We note with a degree of pride that Virginia leads the country in number of banks, having thirteen listed in the Globe's report, Mississippi is second with eleven. North Carolina is third with six: Virginia has three banks capitalized at $100,000. Norfolk shows up well with two banks, capitalized at $50,000. The whole report is an encouraging evidence of progress. Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1. by a male quartette DR. HENRY E. KREBIELL, "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. Save for its vital human quality, which lifts it above all musical products, this harmony, sounds like that of a well-tuned organ." This recognition puts our Folk Songs side by side with the world's greatest musical achievements. This music is editable for the parlor, the school, the church. SEND 25c. FOR SAMPLE COPY. WRITE FOR INFORMATION TO Work Bros. & Hart Co., BOX 61. NASHVILLE. - TENN. COMMUNICATION Commends Bank Directory. Editor of Nashville Globe: Accept my congratulations on the article which appeared in your paper on February 18, containing a statistical report of the Negro banks. It is one of the most interesting summaries I have ever read. It shows somewhat the financial standing of the race. It has only been forty-five years since the Negro was a chattel, with nothing of the world's goods to his credit but health and a cheerful disposition; to-day he has wealth that puts him on a level with the men of the hour. The age in which we live is full of all that has come to man through past ages. We find that the progress of any nation or people, morally or intellectually, has been through the activity of the people of that nation. To-day we are living in what may be called the electrical age; everything is moving at a rapid rate; and men and women are mounting the chariot of progress, believing in their ability to succeed. But all along the byway we observe that every one who steps into the chariot does not succeed, hence the question arises: "What is the touchstone of success?" What is the key that will unlock the treasure of fortune? And in what magnitude of the financial zodiac of the world lies that star tha will guide the baffled wanderer, the ignorantly blind magi along the rugged pathway to the happiness of hopes achieved, and down through the spirit of the world's progress, from men and women of all trend of society, in all ages and from every clime comes the answer, education. INITIAL SERMON Thursday evening, February 24, Rev. W. H. Haddox, appeared in his initial sermon at the Spruce Street Baptist Church, Rev. T. J. Townsend, pastor. The young man spoke on the subject "A Select Stone" (Isa. 28:16). Those present enjoyed a spiritual feast as they listened to the well-prepared words of this youthful divine. The sermon was delivered with the earnestness and power of an experienced preacher. Rev. Haddox, al- [Name] REV. W. H. HADDOX. though a member of this church in which he appeared in his trial sermon, has been a watch-care member of the Zion Baptist Church, Rev. J. Kiel, pastor, for the past seven years. So much did he impress his hearers, he was successful in obtaining his license. His friends hope for him a long life in the Master's cause, wrought with bountiful blessings and rich harvests of many good deeds.

To The Nashville Globe: I want to thank the officers and members of the Railway Employees Protective Association for their prompt payment of the death claim of my brother, Alf Horton. He died Feb. 24th, 1910, at 4 o'clock a. m., and a check was handed me for $100.00 before 12 o'clock the same day. My brother was sick for twelve weeks, and he received a check for $3.00 every week during that time. I want to thank Mr. H. Bowling, the president, for his kindness to me in my trouble. I was a stranger in this city; he did all that could have been done to help me with the remains; he could not have done more for a sister than he did for me. If every railroad man's wife, mother, sister and daughter could have witnessed the kind treatment I received from this Association, they would not rest until their husband, fathers or brothers were members of this noble Association. I must say, it is the grandest Order I ever heard of. May God bless the Association, its officers and its members. Sister of Alf Horton, Rome, Georgia. HUGE MAGNET Is Being Used at New Orleans to Recover a Cargo of Nails. New Orleans, La., March 1.—An ingenious method has been adopted for the recovery of a cargo of nails which went down on a sinking steamboat here a few weeks ago. R. H. BOYD, Secretary, A huge electric magnet attached to hoisting gear is lowered in the water, the electric current is turned on and the kegs of nails are hoisted out one by one, clinging to the magnet. Fifteen thousand kegs of nails went down in the river, and 1,600 have been recovered thus far. ELECTED DELEGATE TO THE ECUMENICAL CONFERENCE. Dr. C. V. Roman, of this city, was elected by the Council of Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church at their recent session in Vicksburg, Miss., a delegate to the Ecumenical Conference that will convene in Toronto, Canada, in 1911. Two other lay delegates were elected, namely, W. O. Emery, Macon, Ga.; Dr. J. Jordan Kittrell, N. C. --- MADAME HACKLEY HONORED. Miss Byrd Holland was the hostess of the Wednesday Evening Musical, February 17, at the residence of Miss H. E. Caruthers. This meeting differed from the others in that the regular club work was dispensed with and a musical was given in honor of Madame Hackley, the celebrated vocalist of Philadelphia. On this occasion an Italian program was rendered as follows: Duct—Oupratet from Piglolette Duet—Quartet from Rigoleto ... Verdi Wissee, Wright and Caruthers Misses Wright and Caruthers. For All Eternity ..... Mascheroni Mrs. Cameron. Cache-Cache ..... Pierne Miss Anderson. Intermezzo ..... Mascagni Miss Holland. Miserere ..... Verdi Mr. Imes. Nita Gitana ..... De Koven Jean ..... H. T. Bulreigh Mr. I'ayes (by request). Miss Holland gave as souvenirs to her guests, heart-shaped cards framing a picture of Macaune Hackley. The hostess' guests for the meeting were Mesdames E. B. Jefferson, C. N. Langston, J. C. Napier, Miss Nettie Hancock, Mamie E. Braden, Willa Holland, Messrs. Chas. M. Ferguson, Roland Haves and Smith. After the serving of a dainty salad and ice course the club adjourned to meet with Miss Flora F. Wright March 30, at 4 o'clock. NASHVILLE. TENNESSEE. WESTERN TRIP. Mrs. Robert Rains, of 14 Cannon street, left the city February 21 for an extensive trip through the West. She will visit Denver, Colo.; San Francisco, Cal.; Seattle, Wash.; Salt Lake City, Utah; Old and New Mexico. She will return Sept. 30. SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER. Oliver Goldsmith's five-act comedy entitled, "She Stoops to Conquer," will be rendered to the public by the Junior College Class in the Fisk Memorial Chapel at 8 o'clock on the evening of March 11, and at 2:30 p. m. on the following day. The comedy is well adapted to entertain highly the friends and patrons of Fisk, for it was written by one of the most reputable writers of English. It has received the approval of literary critics, and while dignified enough to be rendered in some of the best schools in our country, it is a popular play, that is, it is capable of being much enjoyed and highly appreciated by the masses. It always pleases and never fails to 'tickle' the audiences. The custom of giving an entertainment of dramatic nature prevails in most colleges, especially in the North and East, and the day is at hand when Fisk disdains to be in the rear of those schools which are progressive in undertaking those things which make for intellectual training and character-building. A more immediate purpose than the establishment of a precedent, and perhaps a more plausible object than the display of good dramatic ability in rendering this comedy to present to the institution, from the proceeds, something tangible and highly useful, and something that will serve as a monument of the endeavor of Fisk students to show their love and loyalty to their Alma Mater and which may serve as an inspiration to future Fiskites to higher, greater and nobler efforts toward raising the standards of their school and toward the betterment of the conditions existing in their race. Though we set forth to the public these reasons, objects and conditions, we make no plga for charity; sufficient time and labor have been put into this dramatic effort to enable it to be received on its merits, and it is hoped and expected that our worthy patrons, after seeing the performance, shall feel that their purchasing a ticket was at least a fair exchange in which there was no robbery, if not a decided bargain.

Wright, Jr., recognizes the far-reaching influence of religious publishing houses of which the National Baptist Publishing House constitutes one, and the largest one of the four. Splendid results have been achieved by the National Baptist Publishing Board, at Nashville, Penn. It leads all the other Negro plants in the world for the kind and style of machinery, as well as the grade of work turned out. The National Baptist Publishing Board, under the management of R. H. Boyd, speaks volumes for the future as well as the present achievement of the Negro and the Baptist denomination. Few people can conceive the enormous circulation periodicals for 1909. They reached the stupendous figures of something over 12,000,000 copies, which, according to Secretary Boyd's report, do not include song books and pastoral helps. It was only last week that another expensive piece of machinery was added to the already unsurpassed and unequaled lot of printing paraphernalia that is in operation by these people, notwithstanding the Scott's All Size Rotary Press valued at $18,000, with the new Fuller Folder Machine with automatic feeder, large size, valued at $5,000, that have been installed and put in operation since the adjournment of the last National Baptist Convention which met in Columbus, O. The people who read of these rapid strides made by the Baptist Publishing Concern at Nashville will listen in amazement as you relate the story. Hundreds have already asked if such is possible. They have said: "How could Dr. Boyd within fourteen years, bring into existence a publishing plant for the denomination worth over $350,000 without the financial backing of the National Baptist Convention?" The face of stubborn opposition on the part of some of the strongest and most eloquent divines with the same convention—men who opposed the establishment and maintenance of a Negro Baptist Publishing Board from the very beginning, Dr Boyd has pushed right on, not stopping to answer criticisms, but working earnestly and faithfully to do what the National Baptist Convention or dered him to do, which was to edit print, publish, send out, distribute sell, give away and to circulate in every way deemed necessary books catechisms, magazines, newspapers and everything that would disseminate religious matter in prose or poetry. In writing about religious publishing houses Prof. Wright says: "Within the past year, there have been vast improvements in the publishing interests of the great denominations. Just a few months ago the M. E. Church installed the Southwestern Christian Advocate, which is the organ among the colored, in a new up-to-date building, known as the Southwestern Building, in New Orleans, La., giving every facility to the editorial staff to bring out the excellent paper which they now publish. "The latest instance of improvement is that the A. M. E. Zion Publishing House, at Charlotte, North Carolina. A few weeks ago, the old building in which they have been for some years, was disposed of at a price of more than eleven thousand dollars, and a new building, well equipped and more commodious, has been purchased. New machinery has been put in, including a linotype typesetting machine, and we are given to expect other vast improvements in the publishing interests of this church. A branch of the A. M. E. Zion Book Concern has also been established in Philadelphia at 420 South Eleventh street, and Bishop J. S. Caldwell is the custodian of the same. Thus slowly the Negro church is waking up to the fact of the great power of printing." When one studies the situation carefully, he is not at all surprised that our printing interests have been so sorely neglected. The great majority of members of our churches forty years ago were illiterate, and it showed remarkable faith in education and in their better trained leaders, that they accomplished so much as they did in establishing the Book Concern and in supporting the Christian Recorder But with the establishment of colleges and with the throwing open of the public schools to our people, an increasing education is demanding better material to read, and if we are to keep the young people whom we educate, we must furnish them with some wholesome and interesting reading material. It is folly to teach them to read and then leave them without proper reading material. It is hoped that the A. M. E. Church, which has been in the lead for one hundred years in all educational and intellectual en deavor, will not close its eyes to the real necessity. In proportion as it neglects its newspapers and periodicals, the publication and distribu THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 4, 1910. tion of its literature in that same proportion will it cease to hold the interest of the thinking people of the church. In the twentieth century, no propaganda, whether religious, social or political, will have its greatest success unless it makes liberal use of the printers' ink—Christian Recorder.

Thus far all the debates at Fisk have been very hopeful and indicative of our usual success. The selection of teams has been made within recent date. Messrs, J. E. Ellison, '10, J. E. Stamps, '11, C. H. Payne, '11, and R. N. Arthurton, '11, are our representatives chosen to go to Howard University, at Washington, D. C., while Messrs, J. Dawson, C. Wesley, C. W. Roman and W. L. Imes remain at Fisk to defend against Atlanta University, our ancient rival. It is not the purpose of the affair to form such evidence as comes from hard, persist ent study on the part of the boys We can say that any loss on our part will not be due to lack of preparedness. The selection of judges is not yet made for the Fisk-Atlanta debate, but within a week all arrangements will have been completed on that point. Owing to the extreme care that must be observed in doing this, we have of necessity had to delay. A. B. S. CLUB. On February 23rd the A. B. S.
