VOL. V.
COUNTY GIVES $60,000 FOR ITS ESTABLISHMENT.
Court Members to a Man Favor It.
TUESDAY, APRIL 5TH, A GALA DAY AMONG NEGROES OF NASHVILLE AND DAVIDSON COUNTY—MAGISTRATES ONLY DIFFERED AS TO HOW APPROPRIATION SHOULD BE MADE—VOLUNTEER STATE TAKING HER PROPER RANK IN EDUCATIONAL MATTERS—MR. BEN CARR THE MOVING SPIRIT IN THE MATTER.
The Court of Davidson County has gone on record as favoring industrial education for the Negroes of this county. They have shown by their action Tuesday that they have a deep feeling for the struggling and ambitious ones of the race. They immortalized themselves to the 35,000 Negroes in the city, the 29,000 in the county, and the hundreds of thousands in the state of Tennessee by appropriating $60,000.00 in Davidson County Bonds as a bid for the location of the Normal, Agricultural and Industrial School which was authorized by the recent session of the legislature. This is regarded by all as the greatest piece of work ever done for the Negroes in the state. Indeed so far as records bear out, never before has any county in the state showed that amount of real interest in its Negro citizens. The matter has been under advisement by the county court for the past thirty days in the hands of a committee appointed by said court.
The favorable report of the committee Monday morning caused rejoicing throughout the city as it was predicted that the report would be adopted.
In the session of the court Tuesday, both morning and afternoon, it was evident that the entire membership including every magistrate in Davidson County, the presiding officer and the county attorney, were in favor of offering $60,000.00 as an inducement for the location of the school in Middle Tennessee. The results were never in doubt. Some members of the court opposed the bond issue preferring to have the county put up the cash. Others favored the matter but preferred allowing it to come before the people. These three differences of opinion could not be construed by any one as opposition to the appropriation. not one member of the entire court expressed antagonism in any form to the Normal School project. The last objection in any form was rescinded on the floor of the court by one of its venerable members, when according to his statement, he learned that the school would be a state institution directly under the management of the state and county and that it was for the benefit of the Negroes in Tennesse.
The concensus of opinion as expressed Tuesday in the court by more than a score of magistrates, tended to show the greatest interest in the colored brother, and was indeed gratifying for the splendid reputation he has maintained all of these years. It was plainly seen that the work of the special mass-meeting, through its promoters, was bearing fruit. The interest had been aroused. The time for action had come. Every citizen in the county was apparently ready to render the necessary services. There seems now to be no doubt but that the court has given the proper inducement for the location of the school in the county. The appropriating of the $60,000 marks a step forward in the history of the Volunteer State. In the session of the court there were but three representatives of the race who had been selected by the mass-meeting to properly advocate the claim of the Negroes at this crucial moment.
These speakers were given a splendid hearing and plead their cause nobly. They represented the different

vocations of the race as follows: The first speaker, Mr. J. C. Napier, represented the legal and financial side of the race, laying stress upon the fact that for half a century or more he had lived in Davidson County and counted himself happy that at a good, ripe age, he could watch the crystallizing sentiment in favor of the encouragement of long, true citizenship. He said he appreciated the friendship of the members of the court. "We are willing to help you in every way that will advance the citizenship of this country," he said. "We are always willing to help in the advancement of not only our own race, but the whites also, for only recently we helped vote $300,000 bonds for Nashville's new high school for white children," he continued. "We know it wasn't for our race, but we realized that every educated person was an added asset to any community, whether white or colored.

"We want to go out in Davidson county and build you a Tuskegee," he said. He pointed out the advantages to the colored people in the establishment of the school not only to the colored people, but to the county in the decrease of loafers and crap shooters and the increase in colored people learned in agriculture and mechanics and better citizens.
The next speaker was Mr. Ben Carr, the farmer-citizen. Mr. Carr is possibly the best known member of the race who can boast of being a practical farmer. He is president of the Farmers' Alliance. He spoke briefly upon the pressing need of well-trained labor to hold the Negro on the farm and attract the attention of those off the farm back to it. He declared that he was no city man and that his every interest was in the rural districts where his people would find the best returns for scientific agricultural pursuits. He said that he was no speaker, but a farmer. "I've been trying to get this thing on foot for years, for we have got workers in our race, but few farmers, and we want to get this school started so that we can get men who know how to farm and women who know how to cook and launder." He said he had a right smart speech prepared, but when he heard such men as Squire Cheek and Squire Cage get up and endorse the movement and praise his people, all his speech left him.
The last speaker was Mr. Henry A. Boyd, representing the commercial and business end of the Negro's life, who declared before the court that there were no schools of technology that were capable of furnishing skilled labor like mechanics, printers, bookbinders, pressmen and the like. He stated as evidence that the great National Baptist Publishing Board, which he represented, was constantly embarrassed for proficient help on this account. Squire Weakley said there never was a question before the court which he would take more pleasure in voting for. Squire Caldwell said he remem- (Continued on Page 2.)

COURT GIVES JUDGMENT AGAINST DRS. ISAAC, MORRIS AND FISHER TO THE AMOUNT OF $50.00.
The rendering of the judgment of $50.00 against Drs. E. W. D. Isaac, the Secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board, Editor of the National Baptist Union, E. C. Morris, of Helena, Ark., President of the National Baptist Convention, and E. J. Fisher, of Chicago, Ill., Chairman of the Investigating Committee appointed by the National Baptist Convention, which parties were being sued by Attorney
R. L. Mayfield, of this city, for his fee, created no surprise to the citizens of Nashville who had watched and many who had listened to the evidence in the case. It was regarded and evident that undue influence had been exercised over the committee—in fact, it was stated by well-informed laymen, not officially connected with the work of the Baptists, that this trial brought out the fact that the committee was led and directed by the secretary of one of the boards to be investigated and editor of the official organ of the convention. It is said that he admitted in the court that he called the attorney, conversed with him, promised to employ him, told him that he had the authority to do so, and in fact, it is said that he admitted to the judge of the court that he did employ him or promised to do so. Other rumors have it that the questions propounded to the secretary of the Publishing and Home Mission Boards, which boards, it appears, were the object of the whole plan or the bone of content, were prepared by the secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board.
The Baptists of Nashville have awaited this verdict in order to determine whether or not there was any undue activity on the part of the secretary of another board in this investigation. The verdict of the court confirms the statement that there was. Lawyer Mayfield considered himself employed and entered suit for his fee, contending that he had been employed by these three gentlemen. In pleading the case he stated that he had been closeted with the three gentlemen mentioned at the time the committee was supposed to be in session and that their attitude and apparent authority in outlining the investigation as well as the mode of operation against the Publishing Board confirmed this belief.
The judgment was given in the courts Tuesday, while the amount of the judgment, $50.00, not including the cost of the court, was not handed out until Friday, April 1st. The whole affair is regarded by most people to have dragged some of the prominent officials of the National Baptist Convention into what is considered by the business and professional element of Nashville, as a shady, muddy, and some have gone far enough to say a deep-laid conspiracy. Yet none are willing to venture the assertion openly because of the prominence of the divines connected therewith.
The contention of Lawyer Mayfield was that as he had been employed, he should have been paid. No mention was made in the court of the right, nor was it questioned, of the Investigating Committee properly to employ a white lawyer. In fact, very little was said about the investigating Committee. Instead it was closely drawn out that the three ministers and officials named had

SENATOR FORAKER NOT SURPRISED AT THE FINDINGS OF THE COURT—POINTS OUT THE INTENTION OF THE CONGRESS THAT ENACTED THE BILL—SHOWS THAT THE PRESENT SECRETARY OF WAR GAVE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COURT BASED ON DIFFERENT VIEWS FROM THOSE OF CONGRESS —COURT MEMBERS DISAGREE
Washington, April 6.—The celebrated Brownsville case is again in the limelight. The court of inquiry has decided to uphold the decision of the people of Brownsville, Tex., and to punish one hundred and sixty-five brave and courageous men against whom no proof of guilt has been found. It will be noticed also that the court did not attempt to put any responsibility upon the commission officers. Secretary Foraker, of Ohio, is not surprised at the findings under the conditions which pertained. He says:
"I am not surprised by the report the court of inquiry now makes, because I have anticipated such a result ever since the court assumed powers that it was not intended by those who enacted the statute under which they have acted to confer.
"It was thought by the Congress that enacted this legislation that after so many investigations, a total failure of proof to fasten guilt upon any individual soldier was a strong evidence that at most many innocent men had been made to suffer, and that all such should be made eligible for restoration to the army and that all should be allowed to re-enlist against whom no evidence could be produced showing guilt.
"Notwithstanding the present Secretary of War gave instructions to the court which were based on a different view of the matter from that which was entertained by he Congress which enacted this legislation, and as a result the court did not sit to hear charges and testimony for and against the individuals, as the act provides, but entered upon a wholesome investigation on its own account, with a view to establish the guilt of some of the soldiers.
"Such a report as the court has made, in view of this state of facts, and in view of the purposes for which it was created, is a greater disgrace to the American army than anything which has been charged against this battalion of the Twenty-fifth Infantry."
The decision of the court is as follows:
"1. The soldiers of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, stationed at Fort Brown, Texas, did on the night of August 13-14, 1906, shoot into houses of the town of Brownsville, Texas, occupied by men, women and children, killing Frank Natus, a citizen of that town, seriously wounding the Lieutenant of police, M. Y. Daminguez, causing the loss of an arm, and killing the horse under him. The court is unanimous in its opinion that the evidence sustains the charges.
OFFICERS DERELICT.
"2. As to the disciplinary aspect of their case, including the performance of duty by officers and enlisted men of the Twenty-fifth Infantry garrisoned at Fort Brown, Texas, on the night of August 13-14, 1906, as measured by the standard in the army, the court is of the opinion that if the non-commissioned officers and privates had performed their respective duties on the evening of August 13, immediately prior to the shooting affray could not have oce the obligations and responsibilities devolving upon them by the serious situation then confronting them, the shooting affray could not have occurred. Also, if immediately after the shooting, when the men had been (Continued on Page 8.)

LAUDABLE ENTERPRISE.
A plan has been created among the Nashville city teachers which shall have for its object the assistance in the higher education or some of the graduate of Pearl High School who wish a collegiate education but are prevented by lack of means.
Several months ago Dr. F. G. Smith brought the matter before the teachers in a meeting at Pearl High School and the teachers voted to have one representative from each school meet in conference with him and formulate plans for its execution. At Pearl High School, April 1st, the following schools were represented: Pearl, Dr. F. G. Smith; Belleview, Dr. R. S. White; Carter, Mrs. Jennie Honesty; Clifton, Miss Eva Greene; Hadley, Mrs. J. H. Lapsey; Knowles, Mrs. Eddie M. Dickerson; Lawrence, Miss S. A. Jackson; Meigs, Prof. T. B. Hardiman; Napier, Dr. J. I. Watson; Peebles, Miss N. O. Frazier. Dr. Smith was elected chairman and Mrs. Dickerson secretary of the meeting.
Quite a deal of business was transacted, and copy of the rules governing the fund will be sent by the secretary to each school to be submitted to the teachers, so that they may be prepared to vote at the next normal meeting.
We are glad to say that this enterprise has met the approval of every city teacher and they are willing to give a part of their means for its support.
Y. M. L. CLUB.
The greatest event that has ever occurred in the history of the Young Men's Literary Club was the celebration of its fourth anniversary on Monday night, April 4, at the First Baptist Church. A very nice program was arranged and carried out, with some exceptions, the main feature of which was an address by Prof. Richard Hill on "Reading." This was indeed a forceful address. The speaker made a most eloquent appeal for more reading on the part of individuals. The address, as delivered was stamped indelibly upon the heart and mind of each one present.
The High School Glee Club also did great credit to itself on this occasion, by rendering two very highly enjoyable selections. From their singing on this occasion it seems that a rare treat is in store for lovers of music on April 11, when they will give their concert at Mount Olive Church. From beginning to end all seemed enjoyable. Each member at roll call responded with quotations and the program was carried out as at ordinary meetings.
EXPRESSES THANKS.
The Y. M. L. C. wishes to use this as a means of thanking Prof. Hill for his very helpful address. The words were as good seed and, we trust sown in good soil and surely the harvest will abound in good fruit therefrom. Such persons as he cannot but reap a great reward for such instructions as he gave.
We also wish to thank the Glee Club and its management for the great service rendered. Long will its kindness be remembered.
The kindness of Dr. Ellington and the members of First Baptist Church will never be forgotten and we wish to return to them our sincere thanks.
In general we would say to the many friends who wished us well that we were highly gratified by their presence and to those who were not present but remembered the occasion we are grateful to you.
The main idea for the celebration was to increase our library so that we should not have to be hampered for the lack of material when we attempt to carry out our programs. We are earnestly hoping that every one will contribute at least one book to the library. We feel that you are interested in our success and believe that you will grant this favor. Mr. Mansfield Douglass is the librarian of the club and will gladly receive any literature that the public would care to contribute. There has also been appointed a committee consisting of Messrs. J. L. Leech, Epperson Bond and James Johnson who also will gladly receive any periodical. In fact any member of the club will receive same and place in proper place. Believing that you will contribute at least one book we thank you in ad vance.

REV. FIELDS RECEIVES A CALL.
Rev. J. C. Fields, pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, has been called to the pastorate of the Berean Baptist Church, Jackson, Tenn. He has not decided yet whether he will accept the call or not. Rev. Fields has done great and lasting work as pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, and is loved and honored by the church and community. He is often styled by the brethren as "Little David," for his sweet singing, his manly bearing and high conception of a true gospel minister. He has been associated with our associations and conventions so long that we shall keenly feel his removal if he accepts the call.

bered how the old slaves had cared for the folks at home when the old masters were out to war, and he was very glad to have the opportunity to vote for the issue.
Campbell Opposes.
Squire Campbell said he had never voted but for one bond issue since he had been a member of the court—the Peabody bonds—and he was sorry for that. He said he didn't want to take the responsibility of voting these bonds. He offered a resolution providing for the submission of the issuance of bonds to a vote of the people.
Squire Hasslock said the school would be a state and county institution, and while he thought the issuance of bonds on all matters should go to the people, he thought the court ought to vote these bonds, as an election would cost $3,000, when only $60,000 is involved.
[Name]
HENRY A. BOYD,
Member of the Citizen's Committee of Three who addressed the County Court Tuesday before it voted the bond issue.
Squire Jesse Cage, speaking to the question, said he had agreed with the committee as to the issuing bonds, but favored the submission of the question to the people. He said as the time was so short, however, and the cost of such an election would be approximately $2,500 and he had withdrawn his objection and would favor the issuance of bonds for $60,000 for the school.
Squire Lyle said he thought some strings ought to be tied to the resolution as to site. He said if it were going to be established on the old Peabody grounds he wanted to oppose it.
He was assured by Squire Nance that no such location was being considered and as a matter of fact, the school would be located outside of Nashville, but in Davidson County.
Squire Cheek said that the citizens of the county owed it to themselves as well as to the Negroes, to vote the bonds, for it meant that the Negroes would be educated along industrial and agricultural lines instead of for the penitentiary. He argued that the establishment of the school would be a good investment from a commercial standpoint, as the pupils would bring money to the county as they would come from all over the state to attend this school. He said the cities were after the location of the school and that Chattanooga had offered $50,000, but Davidson County was the logical place and expressed the hope that the court would vote unanimously to help the colored people in this matter.
Lusty applause was given each speaker. The impression made by the three representatives of the race was so convincing that the court saw the need more forcibly than ever before and was ready to vote; in fact, it did vote. The $60,000 bond issue became a law, and unless radical changes take place it looks as though the Negro Normal, Agricultural and Industrial School will have at least $110,000 to begin with. The appropriation of the state for the past two years aggregates $35,000. The minimum from one year in the celebrated Morrill Fund coming from the United States Government will be $15,000; the appropriation from the County Court Tuesday totals $60,000, hence $110,000 seems in all probability a splendid beginning.
The Negroes throughout the county will rally as they have never rallied before. The special canvassing committee will begin work Monday. Every home is to be visited and subscriptions from the smallest sum to the most philanthropic donation will be taken. The campaign will be hot, terminating with a mass-meeting in which the whole county will be asked to participate by sending representatives. Insofar as the Negro is con-
cerned, it looks as though the greatest educational campaign ever inaugurated is on. Nashville is not the only city working along this line. Chattanooga, located in Hamilton County, has already raised by subscriptions from the citizens $11,000, while the county has offered $50,000, making $61,000, a splendid offer from the Queen City of the Volunteer State. Memphis, Knoxville, Johnson City and Columbia are also in the race for its location.
ST. ANDREW'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church just recently completed will be consecrated Sunday afternoon, April 3rd, at 2:30 o'clock. Dr. W. M. Anderson of the First Presbyterian Church will preach the sermon. The church is built after Romanesque style of architecture and is quite complete in every detail. In the basement is the Sunday-school and lecture room. Another portion is to be fitted up and used for kitchen and other purposes. The stairway leading from the serect basement is made leading into the vestibule into the auditorium, which is beautiful and churchly. There are nine memorial windows made by a designers of Cincinnati, Ohio, at the Warren Bros. Co. establishment of this city. Three of the windows are in the chancel. The central chancel window is given by the Sunday-school with cross and crown emblem. The second is a beautiful scroll design given by Rev. and Mrs. S. Jackson in memory of their mothers. The third with cross and anchor design is given by Mr. I. H. and Dr. Hattie D. Mitchell for their daughter, Roberta. On the Eighth avenue side of the church four other windows, one in memory of Mrs. Maria Armstrong, given by Mr. Walter Keith, with Chi Rho design. One with no mention of name, Alpha design; one by Mr. Armstead Cheatham, Omega design; one by Miss Laura Flemming with chalice design and one by Mr. Richard Block, with scroll design; another by Mr. Moses McKissack, scroll design. The chancel is beautifully carpeted, but not yet furnished. A memorial organ is expected and also other church furnishings. The public is invited to be present at this service. Rev. S.

DUNBAR CLUB CELEBRATES.
A classical entertainment was given by the Paul Laurence Dunbar Club of Fisk University on last Wednesday night, March 30, when they held their tenth anniversary in the Memorial Chapel of Fisk. The principal speaker for the evening was Prof. Booker T. Washington, LL, D., of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Washington did not arrive until 7:40 p. m., and the program was begun at 8 p. m. A splendid audience was present to attest their interest in the club, which is named in honor of the leading poet of modern times. The program follows:

BISHOP PHILLIPS OFF FOR
TEXAS
On Monday of this week Bishop C. H. Phillips left for Tyler, Texas, where he will hold the annual board meeting of the trustees of Phillips University located at that place. This trip will necessarily be a short one, on account of his conference work, as well as the fact that Mrs. Phillips is still on the sick list.
EDITOR JONES OF THE SOUTH WESTERN.
The principal speaker this year at the Commencement of the Meharry Medical College will be Rev. Robert E. Jones D. D., the noted editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate. The fact that Meharry has secured the services of Dr. Jones adds another important chapter to the school record. Dr. Jones is filling a unique position, the position vacated by the Rev. Dr. I. B. Scott on being elevated to the bishopric. As editor of the Methodist Episcopal Church's organ, Dr. Jones is known throughout the United States as a brilliant writer and speaker. He will address Meharry's largest class, and the audience that will hear him in Nashville will no doubt add more inspiration to the occasion. It has been some time since Dr. Jones visited Nashville, but his host of acquaintances and many admirers are waiting patiently for the evening of April 14th, when he delivers the Commencement address.
ANTIOCH MISSION.
Last Wednesday and Thursday nights we held our second quarterly conference which was a success. Dr. T. G. Haigler, the Presiding Elder, preached a soul-stirring sermon on Thursday night, theme; "Fear not little lambs." Wednesday night little Ben Haigler, who is just eight years old preached, theme, "Hang out the light."
The church is doing nicely with a good Sunday-school and Christian Endeavor. The following program was rendered last Sunday: Recitation by Hattie May Douglass, Bessie Ray, Sarah Douglass and Beatrice Douglass; Scripture reading, Miss Katie Ray, John 11:17.

WEALTHY WHITE GENTLEMAN BUILDS CHURGH FOR NEGROES.
COL. B. F. COULTER, OF LOS ANGELES, CAL., A FORMER RESIDENT OF CLARKSVILLE, THE DONOR.
Clarksville, Tenn.—A more philanthropic effort has never been put forth or recorded in the State of Tennessee, and possibly not anywhere else in the South, than has just come to light in this city. It is an instance that shows the deep abiding faith of the Southern white man in the Negro, with whom he has lived side by side; whom he has learned to know from actual contact and not from observation; an example of the brotherly love sentiment which exists in many sections of this broad Southland of ours where the races dwell together separately, yet where their very interests affect one the other as would be natural from the conditions arising. This incident further shows the real bringing out of the true saying that there would come a time when right in the Southland all nations would sooner or later recognize the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. The story of the Coulter brothers and their deep interest in the hundreds of Negroes that are found in Montgomery County, or which Clarksville is the county seat, reads more like fiction than truth to those away and those who do not know, yet the older residents of this city will remember the Hon. M. B. F. Coulter, who is now residing in Los Angeles, Cal., a brother of Mr. W. F. Coulter, of this city. Years ago Mr. B. F. Coulter following out Horace Greeley's advice to "go west and grow up with the country," settled in the West, but not until he had grown up in this state and had learned something of the trustful, faithful and last but not least, the religious side of the Negro's nature.
The people of Clarksville have often connected the Coulter brothers with narratives showing their big-hearted, charitable disposition, and kindnesses to the Negro population. They are looked upon as the best of Christian white people. It is said they believe almost implicitly in the Negro's religion, at any rate, after being absent for some years the Hon. B. F. Coulter decided to be something for the Negroes of this city. Consulting his brother on what was best to do it appears both decided on helping the Negro in a religious way. Hence the magnificent Main Street Christian Church was planned, built, furnished and is soon to be dedicated to the colored Christian church membership in this city. This splendid structure is the direct gift of Mr. B. F. Coulter and is complete in every respect.
The dedicatory sermon will be preached by Rev. Preston Taylor, the pastor of Lea Avenue Christian Church, of Nashville, on Sunday, May 4. Much interest is awakened throughout this sect of the country in this charitable gift to the colored department of the Christian Church of Tennessee. Arrangements are being made for a special coach to come down from Nashville on Sunday morning, making this a memorable day in Clarksville, history.
CARD OF THANKS.
Through the medium of your valuable paper, we wish to thank our many friends for their loving acts of kindness and words of sympathy toward us during our recent bereavement caused by the loss of a sweet loving son and brother, William S. Greene, who was one of the unfortunate fire victims of the L. Fish furniture store, Chicago, Ill., March 25. These kind acts and loving words of sympathy helped us bear our terrible grief and gave to us during our darkest moments much comfort and hope. God is unerring in His divine wisdom and we bow in humble submission to Him who giveth and taketh.
Yours in sorrow,
MRS. D. J. GREENE.
MRS. R. L. WASHINGTON.
MISS MILLER ENTERTAINS.
Miss Emma Miller, of 219 Eleventh avenue, North, entertained on Monday night, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Majors. Music and games were the features of the evening. At a late hour the guests were ushered into the dining-room, which was beautifully decorated with hyacinths, ferns and other flowers. A delicious menu of six courses was served. Twelve couples partook of the repast and all left for their homes highly pleased with the occasion.
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 1910.
ALPHA KNIGHTS INSTALL OFFICERS.
The Alpha Knights, a most helpful organization of our people held its annual installation last Monday night, April 5, in Ebenezer Church. The meeting was opened in the usual way singing and prayer, after which A. J. Neal, president and one of the founders of the order, declared the house open for business by making some very instructive remarks. The roll was called, dues collected and the books opened for the reception of new members, several applications being received. One young man, who had previously applied for membership, was received as a full member. Mrs. Anna Walker read an interesting paper.
Business being over Mr. Neal introduced Hon. A. N. Johnson, who at once proceeded to install the officers. Each officer was plainly instructed and amusingly told the duties of his or her office and urged to be faithful. Mr. Johnson made a telling speech when addressing the treasurer in which he scored the society for their one fault, that of not patronizing their own banking institutions. He told of how each dollar deposited in a white bank went to swell the amount reported by white banks which received credit for the same never saying that one penny therein is Negro money. The following were installed: Mr. A. J. Neal, President; Rev. B. Manier, Vice President; Mr. Thos. Battle, Secretary; Miss Lillie Hall, Assistant Secretary; Mr. David Lyttle, Treasurer; Mr. Thos. Shute, Attorney; Mr. Beasley, Chief Marshal, Rev. Yancey, Chaplain; Mrs. Corne Battle and Mr. Steve Ewing Chairmen of Sick Committees, ladies and men's, respectively. The Secretary read the report of the previous meeting and resolutions in which was shown the Society had collected and paid out an enormous amount of money and still had left to its credit more than $1,300.
Mr. D. A. Hart was present and Rev. Reed, pastor of the church, kindly gave his time to him. He made an interesting talk and also recommended Negro banks, Negro papers and Negro everything for Negro people. At this point the program changed, all were marched into the Society's hall, led by the officers and visitors, where amid gorgeous decorations and brilliant lights all were given of an elaborate supply of toothsome dainties.
EBENEZER CHURCH.
The Sunday-school of Ebenezer Church, of which Rev. E. M. Reed is pastor, is in a most active working condition. On last Sunday morning, although the weather was inclement, there was a large number present. The school was opened by its energetic superintendent, Rev. William Lusk, the classes taught and a most interesting review of the day's lesson was given by the superintendent. After some remarks by the pastor, Rev. Reed, the school went into the election of officers for the ensuing quarter. Conspicuous among the teachers of this school is Miss Nellie May Buchanan, who though a mere child herself, is teacher of a class of little boys.
The church service was opened by the pastor and a most enthusiastic covenant meeting was held in which all present took part. The choir, under the direction of little Miss Nellie M. Buchanan, who is also organist, rendered excellent music for the services. The Sunday-school was glad to have with them on this occasion, Miss N. E. King, assistant teacher of the Philathea Class of Mt. Olive Baptist Church.
CITY FEDERATION OF CLUBS.
The City Federation of Clubs met Monday afternoon, March 28, at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church. Delegates representing about a dozen clubs were present. Two new clubs joined the Federation and never before has the sign of real life and permanency been more evident.
Definite plans were raid for the reception of the State Federation which will meet in our city June 9, 10 and 11, 1910. We are anxious to have every club in the city represented at the meeting of the State Federation and we again extend an invitation to any club which so desires to unite with us. We in no way hinder the progress of your present work. Clubs in all large cities are federated; you cannot afford to be an out-of-date club. The next meeting will be held at St. Andrew's, corner of Gay street and Eighth avenue, Monday afternoon. April 11, at 3 p. m.
Mrs. Booker T. Washington was present at our last meeting and gave an interesting talk, full of encouragement and inspiration for the work. She explained in a beautiful way what has been accomplished in other cities through individual and united effort. We invite every club in the city to come and pay us a visit; let us explain our plans and if you like them, why, unite with us.

STEWART-BOYD NUPTIALS.
STEWART-BOYD NUPTIALS.
A wedding of much social interest in society circles in this city was that of Dr. D. A. Stewart and Miss Emma L. Boyd. The wedding took place at the home of the bride, 316 Thirteenth avenue, North. This beautiful home was made more attractive by vases of cut flowers and palms. The guests were received by Misses L. A. Bright, Fannie Watkins, Alcien Rapier, Esther J. Pinkard and Belma Mahan, also Dr. Anderson and Walker. Punch was served throughout the evening. Miss Jennie Lind Brothers presided over the punchbowl.
At 8 o'clock the wedding party was formed; previous to their entry Dr. Gray, of Meharry, sang. Miss Martha Grisham then struck the chords of Mendelssohn's wedding march. A temporary altar banked with palms had been arranged in the parlor and Dr. Stewart, accompanied by Dr. Creigh, as best man, awaited there the coming of the bride.
The bride, accompanied by Miss J. E. Benson, as maid of honor, joined the groom at the altar, where Rev. W. Sampson Brooks performed the sacred ceremony, uniting these two hearts in the holy bonds of matrimony.
The bride wore a gown of ribbon and lace, her veil was caught up with lilies of the valley and she carried a bouquet of bride's roses. The maid wore a beautiful lingerie dress and carried white roses.
After the wedding ceremony the guests repaired to the dining-room, which was a vision of beauty. The bride's table was decorated with pink roses as a centerpiece, garlands of smilax were suspended from the ceiling and tapers with pink shades were placed at the corners. An ice-course was served.
Many useful as well as valuable gifts were received by the happy couple and attested the love and esteem in which they were held in this city. They will be at home in Norfolk, Va., after April 14.
STOOD BY IRELAND'S SIDE.
Special to The Globe
New York, April 2.—A powerful sermon without words was preached on the "race problem" in the Cathedral of St. Paul, Minn., on Good Friday last. It consisted of the unusual spectacle of a full-blooded Negro acting as deacon of the mass in which Archbishop Ireland was celebrant; standing at His Grace's right, and second only to him in the position of dignity.
His duties frequently made him the center of attraction throughout the ceremonies, especially while singing the gospel in a rich musical voice, again when presenting the figure of the Crucified Redeemer to the Archbishop for the "adoration of the cross," and once more when walking under a canopy supported by four white ecclesiastics, he assisted His Grace in carrying the consecrated host.
Surely the doctrine that "all men are created equal" finds its full realization in the Catholic Church, which is no respector of persons, even though it is not always and every-where it is not always and every-States.
NEGRO COMPOSER
Miss Ruth Pearl McKinney is the recipient of three beautiful songs by Thomas Buster Page, a Negro composer, of Hamilton, Ohio. The titles of the songs are "Naoma," "If all the queens were one" and "I'm going to live until I get even," respectively. The music contains much merit and shows marked musical ability. Mr. Page has composed several pieces, the above named being his very latest compositions. With the music he sends a personal letter to Miss McKinney saying that whenever he writes a new one he will forward the same to her.
Although the name "Thomas Buter Page" is a new one in the South, his music is being used extensively in Northern cities and is really worthy of consideration.
BABY BAND IN TENNESSEE.
Our Baby Band is growing slowly but surely. We are glad to report our March list and ask that our friends help us in the important work of soliciting the babies and training them in Christian giving and work in the cause of the Master. We have not time to say more at this writing. We are preparing to have our first meeting and social for the Baby Band and their parents on the 10th of May. We will give full notice of same in short.
Names enrolled since our last report in February: Denver Mayes, Allen and Sylvesta Johnson, Gates, Tenn.; Julia E. Jones, John T. Lewis, Katherine Jasper, James Lackey, Philander Mae Pitts, George Durohr Oldham, Ruth Abigail Mason, Alvergin Mary and Lottie Daniel, Rosa L. Johnson, Beulah Scott, Lucy May Pitts, Chattanooga, Tenn.; James Carter, Mary E. and Lovell Landers, Jr., Nashville.

STILL HAS HOPE
THAT REPUBLICAN PARTY CAN CARRY STATE.
HON. J. C. NAPIER, MEMBER OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, BELIEVES IF CAN BE DONE.
"Tennessee can yet boast of a strong Republican organization and party well able to cope with the situation, a party in which there is to be found some 'rock-ridden,' staunch, and uncompromising exponents of the principles laid down years ago when it tried men's faith to proclaim the doctrines of Republicanism as enunciated by old leaders. The grand old party will yet triumph even at the coming of the state election with the right kind of a leader as a standard bearer." This is the declaration of Hon. James Carroll Napier, the lone Negro member of the State Executive Committee which convened in this city several weeks ago. This distinguished attorney, financier and politician, whose reputation is nation-wide and who has never failed to represent the Volunteer State even at great sacrifice, would not discuss with the Globe reporter the much-talked of the Alliance with the Negroes that it is rumored has been made by another political organization, except to say it was his candid opinion that the Negroes of Tennessee were as safe in the Republican column for the next election as ever before He placed no bearing whatever on anything that has been said concerning the party failing to get the solid Negro vote last election. He did not discuss the oft-repeated assertion that many of the white Republicans were trying to rid the party of the Negro vote, which was said to be responsible for the indifference of the Negro apparent in some sections of the state toward the Republican party.
When pressed to say what he thought would be the course pursued by certain white Republicans in regard to the Negro in the future. Mr Napier thinks that should the party exhibit that once friendly attitude toward the brother in black, recognizing him as a voter and factor, not wholly ignoring him, endeavoring as was apparent during the last campaign to win their battle without his support, there would be a vast difference in the results two years hence; and, no doubt Tennessee would be found safely lodged in the Republican columns after the results of the next Presidential election are known. This argument is based on the fact that fifty per cent of the most densely populated sections of West Tennessee is Negroes, about twenty-five per cent of Middle Tennessee is Negroes, with East Tennessee solidly in the Republican column. There would hardly be any doubt that the state would go Republican were some of the white leaders kindly disposed to cooperate with the Negroes in making their plans, electing their delegates and selecting their candidates.
Much importane is attached to the view of Mr. Napier because of his known loyalty, regardless of the fact that he has not been given the recognition due him for his past forty years' service, to the party. His leadership in the state as a staunch Republican, irrespective of conditions, has not at any time been in dispute, and his remaining upon the State Executive Committee when it was reported that the Tennessee wing of the Republicans would rid the party of all its Negroes, is taken as further evidence of his strength and gives credence to his views and opinion on the attitude of the Negro vote in the coming elections. There seems to be a revival of interest among the Negroes and it is expected that this will be further shown at the county conventions to be held throughout the state at an early date.
SERVES BREAKFAST.
Miss Sadie May Elliott entertained Miss Lillie Walker at breakfast, Tuesday morning at nine o'clock. The guests were Mr. Smith, Misses Sadie May Elliott and Lillie A. Walker. The guests were served at their residence No. 323 Eighth avenue, North.

W. C. A. ASSOCIATION.
The W. C. A. Association met at the home of Mrs. M. Comer on Vernon street, April 4. The meeting was opened by singing "Rock of ages, cleft for me," and prayer, after which much business was carried on with the president, Mrs. A. J. Norman, presiding. Mrs. Charley Duff acted as secretary. There were seventeen members present. The next meeting will be held at 1220 Kayne avenue.

DOCTORS OF CITY HOLD BI-
MONTHLY MEETING
MONTHLY MEETING.
The Rock City Medical and Surgical Academy met in regular bimonthly session at its rooms in the Haddley-Reed office building April 4. The enthusiasm and interest which characterizes these meetings were in evidence, most of the physicians of the city were present. Much important business relating to the public in general and to the profession was transacted. It is interesting to note that this organization has changed its name twice but its purposes and plans, and in a large measure its personnel remain the same. Many of those who began with the life of the local organization sixteen years ago are now numbered as its most ardent and enthusiastic members. The officers of the Academy for this year are as follows: Dr. A. M. Townsend, President; W. E. Gray, Secretary; W. A Reed, Treasurer. The new constitution just published grants membership to all practicing physicians in the profession. We are pleased to announce that most of our physicians have joined forces with us in our effort to care for the health of the city, the dignity of the profession, the promotion of a better knowledge of the science and practice of medicine. The medical experts within our city this week who will demonstrate the results of their experiments on the hook-worm and pellagra will be heard by several members of the Academy. The applications of Drs. Fisher and J. Ira Watson were received for membership and these two gentlemen were elected active members. Dr. J. H. Hale, President of the Meharry Alumni Association, reported an interesting program for the annual meeting of the Association on the 13th inst. Dr. C. O. Hadley, President of the State Medical Association, reported that a very practical, interesting program has been arranged for the meeting in Knoxville, Tenn., next June. It is the plan of the Academy to secure the entire Hospital Fund, some of which was collected in the early days of the life of the organization, and place it in the hands of the Hospital Association of the George W. Hubbard Hospital. By invitation Dr. J. H. Holman gave a brief history of the origin and spread of the Bubonic Plague and illustrated by microscopic views and drawings the manner in which this deadly foe seizes and destroys its victims.
JOSEPH H. DOUGLASS AT HOW-
ARD.
The violin recital given at Howard Congregational Church Monday night proved to be a rare musical treat. The drawing card was Joseph H. Douglass, of Washington, D.C., whose reputation as a violinist stretches across two continents. Nashville has listened to three of the greatest violin players of the age within the past several years. Coming in their order: Miss Hester O. Brown, of Cleveland, O.; Clarence Campbell White of the District of Columbia, and Mr. Joseph H. Douglass.
Mr. Douglass in his appearance at Howard Congregational Church displayed remarkable musical technique rendering each number with grace and ease. Certainly no musician need be ashamed of the talent and ability to handle a violin as was displayed by Mr. Douglass at this recital. He was assisted by such talent as Mr. A. G. Price, basso, Mrs. S. H. Brown, contralto, soloists, and Mrs. Horn, elocutionists from Flsk. Possibly the three greatest numbers by Mr. Douglass were the productions of S. Coleridge-Taylor, "Comin' Thru the Rye," and Home, Sweet Home." Many classical pieces, no less than ntwelve in number, were rendered. Miss Scott as accompanist contributed much to the success of the program of the evening.
MERRYMAKERS' CLUB
The club held an interesting meeting at the residence of Miss Alexine Walker Thursday, March 31. The meeting was opened by roll-call, each member responding with a quotation from Longfellow. After a short business session a charming program was rendered by Miss Alexine Walker, pianist; Miss Cora B. Starnes, reading; Mr. John Caldwell, visitor, telling two enjoyable stories. One of the pleasures of the afternoon was the presence of several visitors. A tempting ice-course, in which the club's colors, green and white, were carried out, was served. Next meeting at the residence of Miss Cora B Starnes Thursday, April 14.
PLEASANT GREEN ELECTS DEL-
FGATE
The Pleasant Green Baptist Church of which Rev. J. C. Fields is pastor has shown its real interest in the coming session of the National Baptist Sunday-School Congress which is to meet in Atlanta, Ga., May 25-30. The Sunday-school with its wide awake officers and splendid membership has elected its superintendent Mr. S. H. Johnson to represent the school in this Congress which adds another to the long list of delegates who are planning to attend the meeting in the capital of Georgia.

STATE NORMAL BONDS.
In voting to issue bonds to the amount of $60,000 for the erection and equipage of the State Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, the members of the Davidson County Court took a step that will be received with satisfaction by every Negro in this county, and we venture to say by a large majority of the Negroes in the state. The action of the court is far-reaching in its significance. It shows to the world that our county and state authorities are becoming to realize the needs of all her citizens along educational lines and that they are acting in accordance with their convictions.
The Negroes in Tennessee are sorely in need of such an institution. It means more to them than it is possible to express in these columns. There are thousands of Negro homes in this state to-day that are unhappy because the two contracting parties who agreed to live together until death should take away one or the other, were not taught how to make a home happy. Every young man and every young woman who is trained in an industrial school knows how to make their own homes happy, and in so doing they make the homes of others happy. The Normal College, being a state institution, will serve to develop a special state pride in all of the pupils who attend it that can not come from any other source. There will grow in the hearts of the students of such an institution a love for their home that will never die. Contentment will develop with a rapidity that is beyond man's comprehension, thereby making citizens who will all ways be loyal to Tennessee. State normals, therefore, become a valuable asset in proportion as the state and county authorities take pride in developing them.
We would not convey the idea, however, that the normal school will certainly be located in Davidson County, for the citizens of Hamilton County are wide-awake to the worth of having in a community such an institution as this will be, and they are leaving no stone unturned to secure it; but we do not believe the citizens and merchants of Nashville and Davidson County will allow the progressive giants from the foot of the mountains to wrest from them what they are justly entitled to. But the fact remains that the school will be es

tablished, which is the main issue after all, the question of location comes in secondary. The Globe has just cause to rejoice to see this matter taking tangible form, for we count the results obtained and those about to be obtained to the credit of a ceaseless warfare waged for a period covering three or four years.
TAKING CENSUS
Before we will have an opportunity to speak to the people again the taking of the census will have begun. We wish to call attention of all Negroes to the importance attached to this matter. The census is for the good of all and to the harm of none. No man or woman will be inconvenienced in any way whatsoever by answering fully every question asked them by the census enumerators, but on the other hand, if you do not state the facts to the enumerators you are liable to do yourself an injustice and your neighbors as well. We invite you to read in another column what the President of the United States has to say on the subject, and advise that you act accordingly.
We urge that every minister, school teacher, heads of lodges and societies speak plainly to the people between now and the fifteenth of this month, and explain to them to the best of their ability why the census is taken. We believe that if accurate statistics can be gathered they will show that there are at least 15,000,000 Negroes in this country. We fought valiantly to have Negro enumerators, and you know what the result was. We now urge every one to answer freely every question pronounced to them.
DEBATING CLUBS
There is urgent need of debating clubs in the city of Nashville. No better proof of this need be sought than the fact that it in the debate at Fisk last week it was not possible to find colored men to act as judges, consequently white men had to be secured. The Negro men of the city, and the women as well, should bestir themselves and see to it that strong debating clubs are organized. There are subjects coming up every day that are debatable, and to understand them clearly it is necessary that they be discussed pro and con.
Saturday at nine o'clock the County G. O. P. moguls will assemble in the Twin Building to elect delegates to the State Convention. The assemblage will have a deal more of that objectionable coloring than was the case in the last meeting of the kind.

EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.
"Back to the farm" is a new watchword. We trust that many of our young men will catch it and hurry to its summons. There is a wealth of joy, health and gold out on the farm to that young man that goes out with pluck. Too many of us are afraid of hard toil, so much so that we would rather press brick all day than to follow a plow at nice salary. Young man, if you are not satisfied with your job, "back to the farm."—The Negro Fortune Teller, Huntsville, Ala.

The legislature of Maryland is in session in Annapolis, and has been since the first of January of this year. It has so few Republicans. In both
houses that they hardly amount to a row of pins as far as influencing legislation is concerned. Both the Senate and the lower branch is overwhelmingly Democratic. The last legislature was the same and also the one previous. Almost every official from the Governor down is a member of the Democratic party, both city and State. With the exception of a few counties the Democrats are in entire possession of the State, city and county governments, and yet with all this they are still harping on the poor Negro. Why is it they cannot let him alone? They could not have more power in the government of the State than they now possess if every Negro in Maryland would take up his bed and walk. It is a chronic disease with them and even the best of them seem to be tarred with the same stick—The Afro-American Ledger, Baltimore, Md.
No more important move for the immediate interests affecting the life and progress of the town of Mound Bayou has been recently made than that looking toward the incorporation of the town into a separate school district. This will have the effect to remove the local institution from under the general supervision of the county school board, place its administration in the hands of local authorities and make us entirely responsible for its progress. There certainly can be no objection against this increase of responsibility. On the other hand, it should be gladly welcomed. It opens for us one more opportunity to demonstrate our capacity for doing things creditably. If we can succeed in having the town incorporated into a separate school district we have every confidence in our ability to show that we are fully capable of successfully managing our school equally as well as our other affairs.—The Demonstrator, Mound Bayou, Miss.

Cheap Sports.
Race prejudice is a peculiar "critur" and is subject ta more varieties than an unbroken colt. There is in this city and a number of others throughout the state an agency for a tailoring establishment which caters to the masses, presumably, furnishing suits and overcoats at one price, but not to Negroes. Those of the race who wish to bedeck themselves with Easter finery at a small cost must confine themselves to dark colors, if they procure their suits from this firm, for their agents have been instructed to sell Negroes nothing in light colors. Why? Just because white wearers of $15.00 tailor-made suits object to seeing the patterns they have selected worn by Negro men.
Isn't it too laughable?—The Advocate, Charleston, W. Va.
Carrying the Gospel to Men.
The gospel meeting for men which was held at the Globe Theatre last Sunday afternoon was a distinct innovation in Norfolk and scored another point for the Young Men's Christian association, under whose auspices it was held. The spacious theatre was almost filled with men and we believe we are safe in saying that Dr. Withrow's eloquent and able gospel message fell upon the ears of many who would not have heard it, had it been delivered in a church or even in the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium.
There is a great field for gospel work in this city outside of the churches and it is significant that the Y. M. C. A. has taken the initiative in that respect. Some men who would never go to church to hear a sermon or to the Young Men's Christian Association Rooms to listen to a Bible lecture would stop on a street corner or go to a theatre to hear the word of God. The earnest attention that was given the speaker and the spirited and enthusiastic manner in which the men joined in the gospel songs was evident that last Sunday's meeting filled a long felt need. The Y. M. C. A. is filling most admirably its mission in this city.—The Journal and Guide, Norfolk, Va.
SPECIAL PARTY TO MOUND
BAYOU.
Information comes to Nashville that a special party of enterprising Chattanooga citizens is arranging an excursion trip during the latter part of this month to Mound Bayou, Miss., in order to give inspiration and impetus to some who are advocating the establishment of a Negro town near Chattanooga. This party of prospective investors will include Nashville in its itinerary according to information given out, and they are planning one day in the city, leaving at night over the N. C. & St. L. for Mound Bayou. If the report is confirmed it is probable that the Business and Professional Men's League, together with the two Business Leagues of the city will make an
effort to get together and entertain them while here, showing them what Nashville is able to do in the way of Negro business enterprises.
WOMAN'S SENTIMENT MOULDING CLUB
The Woman's Sentiment Moulding Club met at the residence of Mrs. S. E. Griggs, Monday night April 4th. A large number of the members were present, and much business transacted. It was decided that the Woman's Day will take place on the third Sunday of this month at the First Baptist Church, East Nashville with the same program as planned for the meeting in February. Mrs. M. E. Griggs, President. Mrs. J. L. Overton, Secretary.
THE COSMOPOLITAN CLUB
The Cosmopolitan Club, of Capers Chapel C. M. E., met with Mrs. Henry C. Lightfoot, of 508 Eighteenth avenue, North, Monday, April 4th, at 3 p. m. The meeting was opened by singing "My faith looks up to thee," Scripture reading, 43 Ps., Mrs. S. B. Webb; prayer by club, song "Blessed assurance." The members present responded to their names with quotations from different authors. The club had the delightful honor of having as guests Mrs. T. G. Moppins, Mrs. Foster Long, Mrs. Jno. Cunningham and Mr. and Mrs. Porter Carter. After business, the house was opened for social communication, after which a delightful two-course menu was served, the hostess being extended a rising vote of thanks for her hospitality. The meeting adjourned to meet at the home of Mrs. Edward Mason, 1719 Paterson street.

The Military Court of Inquiry.
Well, the puissant and mighty Military Court of Inquiry has given birth to a sickly, puny progeny in the lature of an opinion on the shooting-up of the town of Brownsville, Tex.
This Brownsville mess is the messiest mess that was ever messed over by men imputed to be sane, and this last crowd of high-titled ones, Capts. Gens., Brig. Gens., Maj. Gens. and Lieut. Gens., constituting the great court, has succeeded in turning the same famous trick that made the Senate Investigating Committee notorious, that of declaring that the Negro soldiers shot-up the Texas town without a scintilla of evidence against a single soldier.
Sane men throughout the civilized world will be constrained to point the finger of contempt at the finding of this last court. If soldiers shot-up the town, why in the name of justice and the minimum of common sense didn't the court point out the guilty ones and let them be punished. The evidence or testimony that proved that soldiers did the shooting will also prove who they were. This is the simplest reasoning to be applied to the whole thing.
The law says before the accused can be adjudged guilty of any crime with which he is charged, his guilt must be proved by competent evidence or testimony and by such that will not admit of any doubt. And here we have a court proclaiming the guilt of men whom it has not proven guilty, and this is perfectly plain from the fact it cannot fix the responsibility for the crime. If responsibility cannot be fixed for a crime, then how can any particular party or parties be held and adjudged guilty of that crime.
There is one satisfying consolation about this Brownsville "plunder," and that is the Negro soldiers didn't have anything to do with it, and every sane man in the world is cognizant of that if you could chase down his conscience and hear what it has to say. No set of men in the world could have kept such a secret in the face of all the hounding and sleuth work that has been done by the emissaries of the world's most powerful government that desired to fix the crime on the Negro soldiers. The whole world will view this whole business as the meanest thing in the category of mean things. And this Military Court of Inquiry and its ridiculous finding will even be now as in the years to come the laughing stock or stupendous joke of devils as well as of men.

Commenting upon the singing of the songs in our Folk Songs No.1. by a male quartette DR. HENRY E. KREBBIEL, "Dean of American Critics" says:-
"A concert-goer might live a lifetime and never hear such beautiful homogeneity of tone as that which they produce, nor such euphony, perfection of unance and precision. 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 suitable for the parlor, the school, the church.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 1910,
FISK LITERARY CLUB.
delightfully entertained on the after-
noon of Saturday, April 2, by Misses
Blizabeth B. Moore and Janie B. Ben-
son, at Miss Moore's residence, 926,
Seventeenth avenue, North. The reg-
ular meeting which was to have taken
place March 25th was postponed in
order that Mrs. EK. M. Cravath, Miss
Helen C. Morgan and others who had
formerly labored in Fisk might be
present at this—a “Reminiscent Meet-
ing.” Following closely President
Gates’ inauguration many of the for-
mer teachers and students who came
to witness the affair were pleased to
be honored guests at this meeting.
Misses E, J. Terry, M. C. Grisham, L.
A. Banks, @sther’ J, Pinkard, J. L.
Terry and Fannie Banks received the
guests, who were presented to the
strangers and made to feel at home.
After some time spent in a social
‘way the meeting was called to order
by the president, Mrs. P. R, Burrus,
and the following program was ren-
dered: Prayer, Dr. G. W. Moore; mu-
siv; roll call; reading of minutes;
Fisk Song; Old Fisk, Miss S. M.
Wells; Fisk’s First’ Choral Class,
Prof. John H. Burrus; What the Jub-
ilee Singers Did for Fisk, Mrs. G, W.
Moore; piano solo, Miss Flora F.
Wright; Beginning of Music Depart-
ment, Miss J. A. Robinson; Passing
of Old Faculty, Mrs, P, R. Burrus;
piano solo, Mr.’ W\ L. Imes; Modern
Fisk, Mrs, M. L. Crosthwait; vocal
solo, Prof, Fred J, Work; talks by vis-
itors.
These reminiscenses of by-gone
days awakened in the minds of the
old students many and varied
thoughts. When the names of Pres:
ident Cravath, Professors Bennett,
Chase, Spence and Morgan were men-
tioned many were the emotions that
stirred the minds of those who knew
them as they wrought—who revered
their memory for what their teaching
meant to them when character was
being formed and a word of advice
and comfort went far toward shaping
their lives for the future. Most help-
ful and inspiring talks were given by
Mrs. B. M. Cravath, the wife of Fisk’s
first president; Miss Helen C. Mor.
gan, who for more than thirty-five
years held the chair of Latin in Fisk;
Miss Mabel Chase, daughter of Prof.
Chase, the first teacher of Science in
this school and one wnose memory is
perpetuated by Chase Hall; Mrs. H.
A, Miller, daughter of Pres, Cravath
and Dean Wright, of Fisk. These
remarks were all filled with words of
cheer and inspiration and the alumni
of long ago who remembered what
Fisk then meant to both faculty and
students, felt their hearts burn with
in them as they listened. After the
program an elaborate — two-cours¢
menu was served. The followin:
members and guests were present:

On last Saturday Sanat ats clubs
of Roger Williams iversity and
Pearl High School met gn the campus
of the former club forj their second
game of the season. It} was a rejuv-
enated team which Eas met. Not
since the new Roger Williams was
established has a team from that
school shown the spirit and the abili-
ty to get together that 'this club dis-
played Saturday. The game was
noteworthy for good base running
and fast fielding and for a great por-
tion of the game the result was in
doubt. The score at the end of the
game was § to 6 in favor of the High
‘Schodl boys. The batteries were
for Roger Williams, |Haynes and
Pullen; Pearl, Waddy/ Buford and
Allison. After the game exercises
were held in the chapel in the offi-
cial presentation of the pennant for
1910 to the Pearl High School club.
President Kumler, of Walden, in a
very polished address, in which he
covered the whole field of athletics
and sport from the earliest times,
presented the pennant to the Pearl
boys. Prof. F. G, Smith accepted the
pennant for his school delivering a
neat address which was short but to
the point.
The object of the League was very
fully set forth in remarks by the
president of the League, Prof, Fal:
coner, There was some cheering by
the boys, singing by the Roger Wil
liam Glee Club and the meeting was
dismissed.
On Wednesday of last week, Wal
den and Pearl met at Walden in
their second baseball match. Walden
bunched her hits while Pearl was
bunching errors, and won the gam
very handily by the score of 14 to 5
Batteries: Walden, Wallace and Rog
| ers; Pearl, Buford, Hurt and Alli
son.
Pearl and Roger Williams wil
meet again Saturday of this weel
on the campus of Roger Williams.

POINTS REGARDING THE .CEN-
sus.
The census begins April 15 and
must be completed in two weeks in
cities and in thirty days in all other
areas,
‘The enumerators will wear a
badge inscribed “United States Cen-
sus, 1910.”
The law requires every adult per-
son to furnish the prescribed infor-
mation, but also provides that it
shall be treated confidentially, 80
that no injury can come to any per-
son from answering the questions.
The President has issued a proc-
lamation, calling on all citizens to
cooperate with the Census and assur-
ing them that it has nothing to do
with taxation , army or jury service,
compulsory school attendance, regu:
lation of immigration, or enforce-
ment of any law, and that no one
can be {njured by answering the in-
quiries.
It is of the utmost importance that
the census of population and agri-
culture in this state be complete and
correct.
| Therefore every person should
promptly, accurately, and completely
answer the Census questions asked
by the enumerators.

the few hours of his serious illness
Many letters of sympathy and also
telegrams from various places were
received asking about his condition
He has gone, and O how we will miss
him, Though it be our loss, it is
heaven's gain.

‘The senior banquet given by Dean
Hubbard will be av imposing feature
during the present week.
‘The last examinetion of the Junior
class was held last Friday by Dr.
A. M. Townsend, A. B., M. D.
The senior medical students will
have their last series of examinations
during the present week.
As there will not be another issue
of this valuable paper prior to the
commencement, which takes place on
Thursday of next week, the writer
deems this an opportune time to ex-
press his best wishes to the memb rs
of the graduating classes. Comments
are not necessary, as the diploma is
sufficient to demonstrate the arduous
toil and deep research of every one
whose distinguished honor it will be
to travel under their new titles. I
further desire to express an open de-
sire that every one shall be victorious
at the state examination boards. It
shall be my deligat, as an undergrad-
uate, to note from time to time the
progress of every member in the
inuch-read columns of the popular
Nashville Globe.

the committee.
The secretary of the B. Y. P. U.
Board was not in the city when the
judgment was rendered, but all the
evidence in the case had bee nheard
and an effort to further postpone was
not tolerated by the court.
In summing up the whole affair,
the opinion of the people, if one is
to judge by what the knowing ones
have said, seems to pe decidedly
against the attitude of those who led
the committee, or who dabbled in
the committee’s affairs in the re-
cent investigation and legally con-
yinces the Nashville citizens that
the secretary of the B. Y. P. U. Board,
who is editor of the National Baptist
Union, assisted in directing the af-
fairs of a committee that he was not
a member of, and it may develop
later more sensational and possibly
establish the real conspiracy as has
been intimated and partly brought
out in the recent trial when this
judgment was rendered against, him
and others.
