SERMON SUNDAY MORNING.
The largest class of Negro doctors, dentists, pharmacists and trained nurses ever graduated from any medical college operated for Negroes received their diplomas last night at the Meharry Commencement exercises which were held at the Ryman Auditorium. The reputation that Meharry has enjoyed for turning out large classes was fully sustained, the class of 1910 surpassing that of 1909 by a large number. No school has been able to send forth a larger number of competent men and women than Meharry. The exercises on last night were the most impressive yet held, notwithstanding they differed somewhat from those of former years. They were begun promptly on the hour with the processional march. The class wound its way around the auditorium to the stage, and each member wore that look of determination.
After this, invocation was offered. Then came music specially prepared and beautifully rendered. The exercises were wholly given over to the principal speaker of the evening, Rev. R. E. Jones, D. D., editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, who addressed the graduating class.
Throughout the evening the various selections were charming. The students of Walden University, and especially the ladies' Glee Club, rendered selections. The conferring of degrees was performed by Dr. Kumler, assisted by Dean Hubbard. The following is the list of graduates:

Meharry Banquet.
The annual banquet to the graduating classes of the Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical College was held last week. These annual banquets are tendered by Dean Hubbard as a token of his interest in the students who are going out to work in the various sections of the United States As usual, it was a brilliant affair, adding another to the long list of events that have been stamped so indelibly upon the students of Meharry. The young ladies appeared to be more in evidence than on former occasions, due to the increased number of the class of 1910 over its predecessors.
Baccalaureate Sermon
The spacious Meharry auditorium was inadequate to accommodate the tremendous crowd that thronged around it to listen to the baccalaureate sermon which was delivered by Rev. Walter R. Lambuth, M. D., D. D., the Secretary of the Board of Missions of the M. E. Church, South. It can be stated that Dr. Lambuth has never delivered a better sermon, notwithstanding his long service in the ministry and his prominence in church affairs. Indeed, he was greeted by a magnificent audience, consisting of people from every walk of life. The day was an ideal one and it appeared that the entire city was making one united effort to add to the importance of the occasion. Dr. Lambuth spoke with (Continued on Page 5.)
C. M. E. CHURCH
GENERAL CONFERENCE WILL MEET IN MAY.
Session Will be Held in Augusta, Ga.
DEEP INTEREST MANIFESTED BY ALL THE PEOPLE—DR. C. H. PHILLIPS, JR., WILL LEAD TENNESSEE DELEGATION.
The near approach of the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, which is to be held in May, revives the interest in the campaign for the bishopric. A prominent young Tennesseean, who has made some advancement both in the medical profession and in the affairs of the church, will reach this city within the next fortnight, his mission here being to lead the Tennessee delegation to the General Conference. It will be recalled that at the recent Tennessee Conference, held at Capers Chapel, two bishops' sons were elected as lay delegates. One of these Dr. Charles H. Phillips, Jr., M. D., who is located at Tyler, Texas, will lead this delegation and take some part in helping to select the two bishops that it seems probable will be elected at this conference.
The very mention of the conference recalls much discussion that has been carried on as to who the successful candidates would be. It will be remembered further that some misstatements as to the attitude of some of the clergy, especially some of the bishops, have been indulged in through the press.
A quiet but thorough canvas by a Globe reporter reveals the fact that nothing whatever has entered into the campaign of he C. M. E. Church that would lead one to believe that any inference with regard to color has ever been made. The rumor that this or that candidate was favored by this or that bishop because he was of a certain color is branded as the most preposterous misrepresentation by the leaders in the church. It develops further, after an investigation, that the best of harmony prevails in so far as it comes to the brotherly love and the racial feeling.
The fight was very warm as to who would control certain state delegations and how they would be landed for certain candidates, but the admission now is freely made that the probable successful candidates are the Rev. R. S. Stout, D. D., of Little Rock, Ark., Secretary of the Church Extension Fund, and Rev. Johnson, of Jackson, Tenn., Editor of the Christian Index, the official organ of the C. M. E. Church. In all probability, it seems as though Dr.
---
Stout is the choice for first place. If two bishops are elected Johnson will be second choice. If three bishops, then the scramble will be on fierce for the third place. No one is prepared to predict the results, but it seems that every one is conceding Stout's election even at this early date. Such venerable prelates as Bishop Lane, of Jackson; Bishop Cottrell, of Mississippi, will not deny that Dr. Stout is the strongest candidate in the connection, and such well-known bishops as Phillips, of this city, and others are admitting that the candidacy of Dr. Stout shows the most encouraging results.
TRIBUTE TO MRS. LOVIE WEN-
DELL. DECEASED.
By M. A. Blackman.
In a brief sketch like this, there is so little we can say of the lives of the workers in our Master's vineyard. Their cheering rays and hallowed influence live on for ages to lift upward those who come after. This we have had exemplified in the beautiful and modest life of Lovie Wendell, who entered into rest March 15, 1910, after service to her church, to her Sunday-school, to her community, to the needy in every place where she could promote her Master's cause. For a number of years she taught school in and around Smyrna. She will be long remembered as an educator, but she will be longer remembered as a Christian worker. Many have been influenced by her Godly life. She has left us for which we grieve and sorrow, yet her examples and precepts will live after her. And while we feel our loss, our hearts are full of gratitude to the Giver of all good gifts for permitting us to have the influence of this noble woman for many years.
Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord; from henceforth yea saith the spirit that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them.

TOUR--REV. PRESTON TAYLOR COVERING THE STATE.
Working in Interest of Warner Institute.
SCHOOL LOCATED IN JONESBORO, AMID THE MOUNTAIN SCENERY OF EAST TENNESSEE—TOUR BEGAN AT COLLEGE MARCH 31—MANY PROMINENT POINTS TOUCHED—THE NEEDS OF THE INSTITUTION PUT BEFORE THE PEOPLE IN PLAIN BUSINESS WAY — DR. TAYLOR AN INTERESTING TALKER—TOUR WILL CLOSE HERE SUNDAY.
Dr. Preston Taylor, of Nashville, arrived in Jonesboro, March 31 to begin the "Taylor Tour" in interest of Warner Institute, the Christian industrial school located at this place, and which was recently purchased of the American Missionary Association by the colored disciples of East Tennessee. The second term of this school ended April 1, on which date the commencement exercises were held in the Court House. There was a large and representative audience present, who listened patiently to a most practical talk from Dr. Taylor. The speaker was in fine spirit and voice, and for an hour his witticism and good common sense and apt illustrations flowed freely. After the address, Prof. Jas. N. Ervine, in a few well chosen remarks awarded diplomas to the class of three young men and one young lady. The rendering of the program showed very much painstaking on the part of the faculty, composed of Principal James E. Baker, Mrs. James E. Baker, Prof. C. A. Loller, Misses Mary E. Thomas, and Kathleen Dickson. The literary work of the institution is divided into an English and Academic course of study. The English course begins with the primary grades and continues through seven grades. The higher course continues through four grades of higher work.
For more than thirty years, this school has borne the name, "Warner Institute." It is beautifully located on a fine crest in the hill country of East Tennessee, and occupies a little more than an acre of ground with plenty of shade trees. Under the lead of Yardley Warner, for whom the school was named, some Quakers first established this work, which was originally a college for white ladies. After running it for several years, Mr. Warner transferred it to the American Missionary Association, under whose auspices a colored school was begun in the fall of 1883.
Dr. Taylor's interest in this work began when the work of selecting the principal was begun. By his advice and commendation, Dr. C. C. Smith, Secretary of the C. W. B. M., colored department, and W. P. Martin, acting for the local Trustee Board, employed the present incumbent. And now, after two successful terms which have shown the great need of and the desire for such an institution in this section, Mr. Taylor offers his services in a month's tour to raise enough money to pay off all debts, make some needed repairs, and equip the institution with modern facilities. Those who know of his large business interests in the city of Nashville are able to appreciate this sacrifice."
Dr. Taylor is one of the race's strongest leaders and has amassed a large fortune, and is sole proprietor of one of the largest businesses in the Southland. Though more than sixty years of age, he is as active as a boy of sixteen. He has neither frowns nor gray hairs. Indeed, his is a happy, trustful nature seeing always the bright side of everything. His business success has in no way hindered his ministerial activities, as he has been preaching the gospel for forty years and is now the present pastor of the beautiful Lea-Avenue Christian Church. His sermons abound in simple elegance, originality, sympathy and ability to get into the hearts of the people. In this capac- (Continued on Page 5.)

GROUND BREAKING FOR MEHAR:
RY MEDICAL COLLEGE.
Hubbard Hospital to Be Erected—
Funds Practically Raised.
Ceremonies incident to the break
ing ground for the George W. Hub-
bard Hospital were held Wednesday
afternoon in the Meharry Audito-
rium. The audience then proceeded
to the ground upon which the hos:
pital will be located, where the con-
cluding exercises were held.
Dr. G. W, Hubbard, who was mas:
ter of ceremonies, told of the clinical
work and jospital privileges this de-
partment ‘would afford to the Me-
harry colleges,
Up to the present time Mercy Hos-
pital, of which Dr. R. F. Boyd is su-
perintendent and surgeon-in-chief,
has been utilized by the faculty of
Meharry, and the senior students
have served as internes. In connec
tion with the hospital is the nurse
training school of Meharry, where a
limited number of applicants for the
nurse training course are admitted.
Dr. Daniel H. Williams, one of the
leading surgeons of Chicago, who
founded the Provident Hospital, and
who is a member of the medical staff
of Cook County Hospital, also spends
about ten days each year holding spe-
cial clinies at the Mercy Hospital for
the benefit of the Meharry students.
The present advance, however, ac-
cording to Dr. Hubbard, in the medi-
cal profession, calls for a college hos-
pital, owned, manned and controlled
by the Meharry colleges for better
established clinics, more skillful, if
possible.
Fiveminute addresses were made
by Dr. J. A. Kumler, President of
Walden; Bishop C. H. Phillips, of
the C. M. E. Church, who is a medi
cal graduate of Meharry; Dr. J, H.
Hale, President of the Aumni Asso
ciation of the university; Dr. C. V.
Roman, Prof. H. H. Wright, dean of
Fisk University, and J. C. Napier
President of the George W. Hub
bard Hospital Association.
As President of the Association
which was organized about a yea
ago for the purpose of raising thé
funds to erect the building that wa:
commenced yesterday, the speake
stated that at the time the organiza
tion was formed the outlook for suc
cess Was not Very bright. Hope wa
entertained to secure substantial ai
from wealthy philanthropists, anc
failing in this, it was up to those in
terested to build the hospital them
selves, and with the assistance c
faculty, students, alumni and friend
of Nashville enough of the necessar
amount to complete one wing of th
building had been rassed.
The exercises at the ground-breal
ing were participated in by Presider
Kumler, members of the faculty
members of the George W. Hubbar
Hospital Association and the Alun
ni Association.

represented by a number of th
nurses of Merey Hospital, and th

much and be lights in their com-
munities. He paid tribute to Doan
Hubbard, referring especially to the
untiring energy with which the Dean
labored while they studied together
for the upbuilding of a fallen race.
He said: “Meharry Medical College
is the result of a great thought.
You are the beneficiaries of this
mighty call which was answered by
your dean.”
The serting capacity of the build-
ing was fully tested on Sunday. Such
a discourse shall aways be remem-
bered by the members and friends of
the class of 1910.
‘The solo by Mr. W. B. Gray, entitled
“Be merciful to me” was a remark-
able addition to the services. Miss
Braden deserves special mention for
her ability in training such noble
voices as constituted the choir,
‘The offertory was taken up nnder
the strains of music by the quartet,
composed of Misses Maude Roberts
nad Sue Ella-Brown and Messrs. Bass
and West.
One of the features of the com-
‘mencement season at Meharry was
the Senior banquet given by Dean
Hubbard, to the graduating classes,
on Thursday evening of last week,
The spacious auditorium was the
scene of about 250 persons, whose
privilege it was to enjoy this hounti-
ful repast. At 9 o'clock p. m. the
guests repaired to the banquet hall,
which was laden with good things,
The decorations were conspicuous
and reflected credit to its promoters.
‘The speaker of the evening was
Mr. E. D. McLaurin, A. B.. a member
of the Senior Medical Class, who was
called upon by Dean Hubbard. Mr.
McLaurin is a student of no mean
ability, having had the honor of grad-
uating from the classical department
of Bennett College,of North Carolina,
where he was known as the “per-
fect student.” He matriculated at
Meharry in the fall of 1906, and from
that time has made a record which
cannot be excelled. His deportment
throughout, has been one filled with
sunshine, In selecting such a man
a very wise step was taken. Mir, Mc-
Laurin paid tribute to the Dean and
|his learned faculty and won the ap-
plause of all, when he thundered out
the resolution of the Class of 1910 as
follows: “As a faint expression of
our appreciation of what this school
has been to us, each member, for the
next five years shall send’ to the
treasurer of the college the sum of
$10 to be used as a nucleus for an en
dowment fund, or for building pur
poses or ag those in authority maj
deem best; and as a further prece
dent, we should have a class reuniot
in the year 1915, and thus establist
| what we trust will be imitated by oth
er classes to follow.”
| The other speakers were Dea

sor John Burrus, Dr. A. M. Townsend

PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Many of the graduates of Pearl
High are teaching in Davidson Coun-
ty or surrounding counties. The evi-
dent success of their work forms
more convincing proof of the value
of service, which is being rendered
by Pearl High School. Among this
number we find Misses Velma Mos-
ley, 09 and Miss Amanda Perkins,
‘09. These young women are back
in the city, having completed the
work of their winter term.
The teachers who were present at
Pearl High and heard Prof. Winship
read so touchingly the little poem,
entitled, “Robin Adair,” expressed a
desire to possess the same. He kind-
ly sent us a copy which I shall give
below. The poem was written by
Dr. Ruth Frances Robinson, of Bos-
ton, Mass.
Robin Adair,
The very oddest boy I know
Is Robin Adair with his head of tow,
And his big bright eyes where the
questions grow.
For this very same boy is asking
“Why?”
ce the time the morning paints the
sky
Till the sleepless stars come out on
high,—
Why is oatmeal healthy and candy
good?
Is it always naughty to do as you
would ?-
And would you be an angel if you
could?
Why does the sun sleep back of the
trees
At home when in summer he takes
his ease
All night in the rocking bed of the
seas?
‘Why is it bad for boys to fight
And for soldiermen so brave and
wight?
Why do I love you best at night?
Why do the oaks and elms stand tall,
And the apple trees do the work for
all,
With their gnarled old branches
ready to fall?
Why does a great, strong gentlemar
ride
In a carrige handsome, and soft, ant
wide
And a tired o!d woman walk by it
side?
| Ah! Robin, I'll neither laugh nor ery
| But I'll teach you a secret deep ant
: high,—
.| The grown-up children keep askin:
“Why?”
‘| and. the answers re somewhere
|| safe and fair,
,| Beyond the stars and the starlit air,
.| For men and women and Robin Adait

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE AT ST.
JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH.
The second quarterly conference of St. John African Methodist Church was concluded on Monday night. The conference opened Friday night, April 8th, with a love-feast service, which was largely attended. Bright and early Sunday morning the little folks gathered at Sunday-school, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the presiding elder, Dr. T. W. Haigler, who is a special favorite of the children everywhere he is known. The exercises were well under way when he arrived, but the regular order was suspended and the Doctor made an inspiring talk to the Sunday-school
The church services during the day were largely attended. The presiding elder preached at eleven o'clock in the morning. In the afternoon a union meeting of several of the Methodist churches was held. Dr. Sampson W. Brooks, of St. Paul, preached an able sermon. The services were largely attended at this hour and the spirit of unity pervaded the house.
The presiding elder preached at night to an overflowing house.
The conference session concluded on Monday night with the business meeting. All of the reports showed an increase over the first quarter. A goodly number had been added to the church and the presiding elder expressed himself as highly pleased with the work of the church in all departments.
Rev. J. L. Smith, of East Tennessee Conference, was presented and brought greetings from his conference. He reported the church work in the eastern section of the state to be in excellent condition. Mr. D. A. Hart and Rev. A. Brooks responded. Dr. Brooks, who was formerly a minister of the East Tennessee Conference, assured the visiting presiding elder that the church he is pastoring here would make a good showing at the annual conference in every department.
After adjournment Presiding Elders Smith and Halgler left for Memphis, Tenn., to attend a council of the presiding elders of the state.
Hamilton Street A. M. E. Church
Holds Quarterly
The second quarterly Conference was held last week, Dr. T. W. Haigler, presiding elder, in charge. The reports showed the work of the church to be in splendid shape in every department. The membership is increasing rapidly and indications point to the development of a strong church in that community.
GORDON CHAPEL
Never in the history of the Gordon Chapel M. E. Church have its members turned out in great masses as on last Sunday. In the first place, it was conference day with the church, and in the next, it was the day on which the entire afternoon was given to the Sunday-school work. The central feature on program was discussion of the subject, "The duty of a Sunday-school Teacher." The discussion was led by Mr. B. H. January, who was followed by Messrs. J. W. Childress and S. F. Williams, and Prof. F. N. Green. The chapel was practically full, in fact, a large and appreciative audience did honor to the young people of their church.
Rev. Meanes, who is the newly-appointed pastor of the church, is making many efforts to win the young people of his congregation and community.
SOCIAL HOUR
The beautiful and hospitable little home of Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Boyd was open Tuesday evening with Mr. H. E. Perry as honored guest, of Atlanta, Ga., representing the Standard Life Insurance Company.
The young ladies and young gentlemen who had the pleasure of meeting the distinguished guest were charmed with his congenial personality and shall remember him with pleasure. He, in turn, expressed himself as being delighted to have had such good fortune as to take a peep into Nashville society. He declares on his return when business is more systematized, that he shall not be satisfied till he has met all the Nashville girls. Punch was served in the hall by little Miss Katie Boyd. After the social hour the guests repaired to the dining-room, where they were served a two-course menu.
The guests of the evening were Misses Lady E. Phillips, Bessie E. Martin, Blanche Stevens, Elnora E. Berry, Esther J. Pinkard, Messrs. Ray, G. Hamilton Francis, Samuel Carter, Dr. Robt. Green, Mr. H. E. Perry and Mrs. R. H. Boyd.
HOLY TRINITY MUSICALE.
Under the auspices of the choir of Holy Trinity Church, a most delightful musical program was given at that church last Sunday evening. Those who assisted were eminent local artists, with Mr. Edward Welters as violinist. For more than an hour, beginning with Mr. Imes' prelude, "Serenade," being expressingly played on the pipe organ, a large and apprecia-

tive audience thoroughly enjoyed one of the best musical entertainments of the season. It would be difficult to say which of the singers delighted most, so beautiful in expression and technique was everything sung. The Glee Club of Walden University deserves the highest commendation; Mrs. Robt. S. White, the organist of Trinity Church, is to be congratulated for the pleasure of the evening. The Nashville Globe, is much praised in helping the church so very often through its widely circulated pages.
FATE OF A DISOBEDIENT SON.
The above drama, by George L. Harris, will be rendered at Spruce Street Church, Monday night, April 25, 1910. The drama is based upon some experiences of the writer, which happened more than ten years ago. His attention was called to a boy whose conduct was grieving his mother, father and sister, causing them many anxious hours and sleepless nights. From these scenes he began the work on this drama and has spent much time and energy on it, trying to bring from it the lesson to treat father and mother right. After earnest entreaties by friends, young and old, the writer has decided to make the first appearance at the above-named church of which Rev. T. J. Townsend is pastor.
The Program Committee has made special arrangements to render the drama to the faculties and students of the city at 3 o'clock p. m., April 25. The practical lesson which the play contains, is well worth while for every institution of learning to spend the afternoon with the drama. At 8 o'clock p. m., the drama will be rendered to all. Tickets are on sale at the Palms.

being pursued by the Mayor, and be-
lieve that it will be wisdom upon the
part of every voter to see to it that
he cast his vote for the proposition.
We feel that every one living in Dav-
idson County should be interested in
the development of this community
first of all in the world.
The annual meeting of a state fair
means much to any county or city.
Thousands come each day to visit
such an exhibition, and are brought
in touch with the most progressive
people of the commonwealth, and
those from other states. These vié-
itors bring thousands of dollars to
a city, and being out to mingle pleas
ure with business, they are not sting;
with their means; and too, the mer
chants of the city where these visi
tors congregate have a spleridid oppor
tunity to show their wares to good
advantage more so than can be don
by drummers,
‘The working man thrives in a com
munity in proportion as the busines:
man prospers; therefore, the perma
nent location of the State Fat
grounds in Davidson County mean:
as much to one class of citizens a
another. Mayor Howse is to be com
mended for the progressive spirit h
exhibits on behalf of the elty of Nash
ville and the welfare of all her cit
zens, and we believe his course wi
be blierally approved in this matter
MEHARRY COMMENCEMENT.
Last night, before an audience that
represented the culture and refine-
ment of the Negroes of this city, an-
cther year’s work of the Meharry Med-
ical College was brought to a close.
‘The class was unusually large, and if
the testimony of members of the fac-
ulty is to be accepted as authentic,
the work of the graduates has been
thoroughly done.
THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 15, 1910.
This college was established as
early as 1866 and has been in con-
tinuous operation ever since, and un-
der the same dean, the venerable Dr
Hubbard. Hundreds of men and
women have gone out from this insti-
tution to battle with the diseases of
mankind, and with few exceptions,
they have “made good.” The class that
has just graduated should not allow the
record made by former graduates to
be marred. Each one should resolve
to see to it that one member of the
class will strive to maintain the
honor of Dean Hubbard and the
members of the faculty who have la-
bored to the end that the class of
1910 should be as well prepared to
perform their duties in the medical
profession as those of any preceding
year.
INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES.
Some of our friends are surprised
when we tell them that we would con-
sider it a great favor if they would
not ask us to accept articles treating
on subjects of a purely personal na-
ture. Our policy has been to labor
for peace and harmony, for we be-
lieve that if we can make the people
see the wisdom in being at peace one
with the other, it will be an easy
matter to get them to unite on all
things that affect the whole people.
It is emminently essential that har-
mony prevail among the people.
Bickerings and finding fault with one
another only tend to weaken the
whole race.
The clean-up period is on now.
Every citizen owes it to himself to
join in the procession and stay in
line until they maren from curbing
to alley. The city officials cannot
keep the city clean unless the people
co-operate with them.
It is rumored that we are to have
another undertaking firm in this city.
‘The gentleman is weleome to come
here, but we can assure him that no
one desires to give him any business.

but their coming together failed to
hasten on the visitation of Ha‘ley's

Military Court's Unjust Findings.
‘The Military Court of Inquiry has
given out its findings in that Browns-
ville, Texas, affair which has been
‘such a nightmare to some people in
authority in this country who have!
devoutly tried to saddle it on the Ne-
gro soldiers. Yes, they have labored’
assiduously and insidiously and con-
tinuously, in season and out, day and
night, to make the responsibility for
that episode stick to the great Negro
fighters, but all efforts, and they have
been many and strenuous in that
direction, have been utterly futile.
‘The dogged persistency with which
this last court, composed of high- ti-
tled military dignitaries from cap-
tain to lentenant-general, has
sought to build up a case just any-
how out of one that frustrated and
staggered into silence the great Roose:
velt regime, was worthy of a better
and juster cause. ‘This puissant mil-
itary court forgot or ignored the fact
that the white commissioned officers
who had command of the troops of
the Twenty-fifth had been absolved
from all blame touching that affair.
To give their findings in the case
some air of justification or tolerance
the court proceeds to abuse the non-
commissioned officers and the men of
the line.
Sacred history furnishes another
example of the crying need of testi:
mony to insure conviction, When the
Great Nazarene was shifted from
court to court until he was adjudged
| finally by Pilate, it was for no other
reason than to give the Jews a chance
to hatch up some sort of evidences
that would partially stand the test
before the bias Sanhedrin, The out
come of Jesus’ many trials was thal
he was found guilty, But guilty o}
what? Not one of the courts befor
|which he appeared was able to find
jin Him any guilt. The deep-preju
Jdiced Jews yell out their answer a:
.| to the Lord’s crime or guilt by shout
ing, Away with him! crucify him!
|| Devilish Pilate, the synonym of cow
‘| ardice, sentenced the Son of Man a
-|being guilty of the crime with whict
,|he had been charged by the Jews
‘|though the charge had been unsup
ported by an iota of reasonable tes
timony. He, then, a carping craver
and an uncompromising hypocrite,
called for a basin of water to impress
upon the Jews that he was washing
away the stain of the part he had
played in condemning an innocent
man Without proof and that on them
would fall the responsibility for the
act. But Pilate had played falsely
with justice, and the day of retribu-
‘tion Was reserved for him, and he
‘got. it.
The Military Court of Inquiry has
played in this Brownsville affair a
role similar in its general aspects to
‘that of Pilate. Pilate played to the
prejudice of the power of the Jews,
‘whom he thought might work his
undoing politically. He pandered to
prejudice at the expense of justice,
and the world now execrates his
“weakness and will ever do so. \
The Military Court’s findings were
‘to be the last word in the matter,
and it threw away its one great
chance, Before. Roosevelt's ghost or
shadow, which is looming upon the
political horizon of the affairs of this
country again, that court fell down,
ingloriously fell down, The court
was unable to fix the responsibility
on any soldier, yet it proclaims to
the world that Negro soldiers shot
‘up the Texas town. It either over-
looked or was insensible of the ridic-
| ulous position it placed itself in to de-
clare that the evidence before it
| showed that the soldiers were guilty
,and yet could not show which sol-
|diers were guilty, How in the name
| of the least common sense can a court
| say that a certain man committed a
|certain crime unless it proves that
|he did commit it? This court of in
quiry has been caught squarely as
| Selag incompetent to weigh unpre
| judicially the stuff it had before it
| and render its findings in accordance
thereto.—J. D. Orenshaw, in Nationa’

NOTICE.
‘The management of the Nashville
Globe destres that every society, club
and all promoters of these entertain-
ments observe that on account of
matter coming in to the paper each
week for publication that somme re:
strictions must be made with regard
to the space and the writeups. The
management has tried for more than
two years to secure the services of
some competent young lady as socle-
ty editor, one who would have charge
‘of weddings, parties and club events
It desires to state that it has se-
cured the services of one of the most
talented young ladies of the city of
Nashyille to look after this special
feature of the Globe from time to
time. The lady is Miss Pink Blos
som, non de plume, who will edit
the ‘society columns of the Globe, be
ginning with the issue of April 22nd.
All matter pertaining to weddings
parties and club notes will be sent te
the Society Editor, Nashville Globe
Nashville, Tenn. This society editor
will edit all of the copy. She will
be as liberal as the occasion: demands
in giving space. No favors will b
shown. The same broad policy of tht
Globe for these years will be pursued
Tt is hoped, however, that for th
benefit of the various clubs, they will
see to it that more of their individual
members are subscribers to the paper.
It Is a fact that most of the clubs
who get the largest amount of space
and send in the most matter have
fewer readers and subscribers to the
paper. There are no charges for
news items and the company is very
desirous of having the space taken up
with reliable reading matter, But
the company wishes to say that these
clubs should insist upon thelr indi-
vidual members being paid up sub-
scribers to the Globe. Miss Pink
Blossom will begin her work next
week. All matter must be in the
Globe office by Wednesday noon.

MAYOR HOWSE ISSUES PROCLA-
MATION FAVORING PUR-
CHASE OF STATE
FAIR.
Voters of City Are Urged to Go to
Polle.
Mayor Hilary Howse Wednesday
issued a proclamation urging the
voters of Davidson County to go to
the polls and vote for the purchase of
the property of the Tennessee State
Fair Association, which will be de-
cided by an expression of the people
April “21.
‘The County Court some time ago
agreed by the introduction of a reso-
lution, to submit the proposition to
the people. The price asked is
$150,000. The issue April 21 is
whether or not bonds will be voted
to purchase the property.
If the property is purchased it will
‘be bought with the sole purpose of
holding: an annual State Fair in Ten-
‘nessee. It means not only a per-
manent State Fair, but vast en-
largement nd amuch improvement
over all former annual occasions.
| For that reason Mayor Howse be-
lieves it to be an excellent invest-
ment for the people of Davidson
County. He urges that al lvoters go
to the polls, that the business men,
manufacturers and merchants allow
‘their employees to turn out and ex-
| press ‘their wishes on the proposi-
tion that means so much not only to
Davidson County, but to the entire
State,
Mayor Howse’s proclamation is as
follows:
“On Thursday, April 21, 1910, the
people of Davidson County will vote
upon the question whether or not Da-
vidson County will issue bonds for
the purchase of the property of the
Tennessee State Fair Association,
with the object in view that said
property shall be used for the State
of Tennessee for the purpose of hold-
ing thereon annual State fairs.
“This proposition, if carried, will
insure the permanency as well as
the enlargement of the State Fair
at Nashville, and the permanent
malintenance of the State Faim at
| Nashville will advance the material
interest and promote the general wel-
| tare of the citizens of Nashville and
Davidson County, exciting industry,
thrift, development and worthy emu-
lation in different avenues of com
merce, agriculture, manufactures and
education within the county, and in-
sure increased intelligence, welfare
and happiness for our people.
“As the Mayor of the city of Nash-
ville and with the best interest of
the city and county uppermost in my
mind, I hereby earnestly request that
the heads of all city departments as
well as the business men, manufac
turers, merchants and all employers
of labor give their employees an op
portunity to go to the polls on Thurs:
‘day, April 21, 1919, and vote for this
highly meritorious proposition.

WILL ERECT NEW PARK FOR COLORED PEOPLE.
Norfolk, Va.—(Special)—M. Wm. H. Thorogood, one of Norfolk's (Va.) progressive colored men, has purchased a plat of land at Ocean View, and will erect thereon in the near future a pavilion and other amusements for colored people. The site is an ideal one and will make a splendid amusement park. It is reached by the Bay Shore Terminal line. The property is on the east side of York street and has a depth of 245 feet.
GEORGIA PYTHIANS HOPEFUL.
Atlanta, Ga.—The condition of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias of the state of Georgia is about as satisfactory as could be expected since the recent decision of the Supreme Court declaring that as a Knight of Pythias organization it had no right to exist. When this decision was flashed over the United States it brought to Atlanta some of the most noted secret order workers in the United States. They were here in the interest of this celebrated case. It was to be expected that the Supreme Court of Georgia would decide against the Grand Lodge, especially since such damaging testimony had been given, even by members of the Order, who were supposed to know, but in fact who knew nothing of the early history and organization of Pythianism among the Negroes. It could hardly be said, however, that the testimony was intended to damage the future of the Order in Georgia, which if so would affect Pythianism throughout the United States. The Supreme Chancellor, Sir S. W. Green, of New Orleans, La., in speaking to your correspondent who was in this city and who left the city in company with him, said that the entire matter had been appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States and that matters were in status quo until the Supreme Court could render a decision. This practically puts the matter in abeyance, or where it was at first.
The Pythians of Georgia will go right along enjoying the same amount of liberty, writing the same amount of policies, organizing the usual number of subordinate lodges, paying
their death claims and, in fact, maintaining every feature or phase of the Grand Lodge of the State of Georgia as heretofore. The Supreme Chancellor had with him in this city the Supreme Attorney, the legal advisor of the Supreme Lodge, the Supreme Keeper of Records and Seal and the Supreme Master of Exchequer. This array of national representatives was enforced by the grand officers of the state of Georgia who came from the various sections of the state.
A general consultation was held and plans fully outlined for a stubborn resistance of this seeming outrage begun in this state upon Negro Pythians. The Supreme Chancellor, although small of stature, demonstrated his ability to outline such a vigorous campaign as to keep the opposing forces guessing. His plan of campaign from now until the case reaches the Supreme Court for decision will be strenuous. He has given orders all down the line, even over into Tennessee, where the trouble seems to be brewing as in Georgia not to let up, to resist every attempt to infringe upon their rights to exist as a Pythian organization. There will be no effort on his part to attempt to fight without sufficient legal talent, i. e., men of such ability as will be able to represent them in the highest court at Washington. This state has already convinced other Pythians that unless stubborn resistance is given to these attempted outrages on the secret orders not one will be allowed to exist, notwithstanding their constitutional right to do so in face of the fact that they have enjoyed the right of a charter granted by the state for a number of years.
CENSUS ENUMERATORS BEGIN
WORK.
On Friday morning there will be about 1,500 Negro census enumerators to begin work in the United States, with an additional army of whites workers for the government. It is shown that Nashville and Davidson County make no mean showing. There are twenty-three competent Negro workers who will find the information for the government which will, it is said, show a Negro population much greater than has been estimated and that the population of the entire United States will be about 95,000,000 or 100,000,000. The special lecture for all the enumerators, clerks and special agents was given this week by Mr. Luck. In addition to these, notices to the general public were given out so as to have them co-operate with all the enumerators and thereby assist in gathering such vital information. The work is to be completed by the enumerators in about fifteen or twenty days.
MRS. NEAL RETURNS.
Mrs. Anna Banks-Neal and little daughter, Marthalma, of Ebenezer, have returned from Birmingham, Ala. It will be remembered that Mrs. Neal went to Birmingham to be with her sister, Mrs. Eva Hanna, who underwent a very serious operation. The operation was performed by Drs. Curtis, of Chicago, R. F. Boyd, of this city and, Brown, of Birmingham, at the Home Infirmary, and so far is most successful. Mrs. Hanna is the wife of Mr. M. Z. Hanna, a well-known barber shop proprietor of Birmingham, and at one time an instructor at Normal School, Normal, Ala.

NASHVILLE'S POPULATION 1910.
The Board of Trade, in order to assist in securing a correct census of the City of Nashville, earnestly calls your attention to the following proclamation of the President of the United States.
We appeal to your civic pride to carefully read and be governed by its advice and urge your neighbor to do likewise. If you are overlooked by the enumerator telephone the Board of Trade, Main 422.
The Proclamation.
Whereas by the Act of Congress approved July 2, 1909, the Thirteenth Decennial Census of the United States is to be taken, beginning on the fifteenth day of April, nineteen hundred and ten; and
Whereas a correct enumeration of the population every ten years is required by the Constitution of the United States for the purpose of determining the representation of the several States in the House of Representatives; and
Whereas it is of the utmost importance to the intestists of all the people of the United States that this census should be a complete and accurate report of the population and resources of the country;
Now, therefore, I, William Howard Taft, President of the United States of America, do hereby declare and make known that, under the act aforesaid, it is the duty of every person to answer all questions on the census schedules applying to him and the family to which he belongs, and to the farm occupied by him or his family, and that any adult refusing to do so is subject to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is to secure general statistical information regarding the population and resources of the country, and replies are required from individuals only in order to permit the compilation of such general statistics. The census has nothing to do with taxation, with army or jury service, with the compulsion of school attendance, with the regulation of immigration, or with the enforcement of any national state, or local law or ordinance, nor can any person be harmed in any way by furnishing information required. There need be no fear that any disclosure will be made regarding any individual person or his affairs. For the due protection of the rights and interests of the persons furnishing information every employee of the Census Bureau is prohibited, under heavy penalty, from disclosing any information which may thus come to his knowledge.
I therefore earnestly urge upon all persons to answer promptly, completely, and accurately all inquiries addressed to them by the enumerators or other employees of the Census Bureau, and thereby to contribute their share toward making this great and necessary public undertaking a success.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this fifteenth day of March, A. D. one thousand nine hundred and ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and thirty-fourth. (SEAL)

MURFREESBORO NOTES
Efforts are being made to enlarge the circulation of the "Globe" and "The National Baptist Review" in this city, both of which are strong Negro papers. The former is an undenominational paper, being ably supported by members of all Negro churches, and it is very essential that we take more note or interest; it is an organ to, for and by the Negroes. Through its columns we are able to read the thoughts, doings and sayings of Negroes who are "worth the while."
The Review is a denominational organ supported by Baptists; by reading its columns Baptists may become more acquainted with the work of Baptists throughout this state and nationally. Rev. W. T. Green is agent for each of these papers and would be glad to secure your subscriptions monthly, semi-annually or annually.
The fifth rehearsal for the big spring concert for the benefit of the First Baptist Church was held at the residence of the pianist, Miss Fanny Alexander, Wednesday evening, April 13.

153 FOURTH AVENUE, NORTH.
It appears that the action of the County Court in the appropriation of bonds has enlivened the interest among all classes of citizens, and especially the land owners.
On Wednesday of this week, a committee consisting of Chairman Ben Carr, J. C. Napier, R. H. Boyd and others appeared before the Finance Committee of the City Council. An interesting session was held, there being present some very prominent white attorneys and citizens who showed their interest in the development of the industrial education of the Negroes in the entire state. A report of the meeting of this committee was not given out, but is regarded as very favorable to the interest of the school. Chairman Carr is the most hopeful of all. When seen by a Globe reporter he declared his unwavered confidence that Davidson County would win and that the school would be established. But he would not say that there was any assurance of its location in the county unless the county showed superior advancements as outlined by the Board of Education in its plan of selecting the site and location.
No definite arrangements were made at this meeting regarding the proposed educational mass-meeting at the Ryman Auditorium. This will be determined on the return of Rev. Preston Taylor, who is on the committee to look after these conventions and special mass-meetings.
Last Sunday at the headquarters, in Odd Fellows' Building the Y. M. C. A. enjoyed a very helpful address on "The Lame Man." The speaker did great credit to himself as well as highly benefiting the hearers. The attendance was fairly good, but there are so many young men who are members of the Association and who fail to attend the meetings. Let us attend better each meeting and know what is going on.
Next Sunday meeting at rooms from 3 to 4 p. m.
The Bible Study Class has been in progress for some time under the instruction of Dr. W. S. Ellington. Those who miss these classes suffer a great loss. Wednesday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30 is the time for this class. Let every one come on time.
On Monday night, April 11, the Y. M. C. A. night school was opened. This will continue for some time. The tuition is free to all. Classes will be arranged to suit those desiring to study.

...ERESTING MEETING OF NORMAL COMMITTEE.
A most interesting meeting of the committee appointed by the general mass-meeting to look after favorable sites to recommend to the State Board of Education for a proper location of the Normal, Agricultural and industrial School for the Negroes of Tennessee, was held last Monday night in the office of the Board of Directors of the One-Cent Savings Bank. Rev. William Haynes, Chairman of this special committee that has been at work for the past sixty days, called the meeting to order. He stated the object of the meeting, which showed that this committee was only pursuing the plans outlined by the mass-meeting. A temporary secretary was selected and about twenty-five different communications, oral and written, were handed in to the committee covering equally as many farms in various parts of Davidson County which had been offered for the State Normal School. A splendid representative body of the committee, together with the Chairman, Ben Carr, was present and helped to discuss other plans for raising subscriptions, adding to the amount necessary to reach possibly one hundred thousand dollars. Chairman Haynes seemed interested in the splendid array of offers for beautiful and well-tilled farms, consisting of the very best agricultural soil that could be found in the county, which were at the disposal of the state for the school.
Among those who spoke at the meeting during the evening in the interest of the future of the school, and pledging the individual support of the citizens of various sections of the country were Mr. J. C. Napier, Prof. J. H. Burrus, Squire Compton, Mr. T. G. Ewing and Chairman Haynes. A general report is to be made by this committee of all of the property offered for the school.

JOHNSON GETS PHYSICIAN.
Dr. Caffey, Montgomery, Ala., Man to Be Medical Expert to Champion.
Special to the Globe.
Montgomery, April 7.—Dr. Frank C. Caffey, a well-known Negro physician of this city and one of the best known athletes in the South, scientifically trained, has signed a contract to act as medical expert in Jack Johnson's camp. Johnson is to go in training on May 14, the physician's services being required until the last of June. The contract price is $150 per week—transportation both ways to and from Oakland, Cal., where the camp is located.
Dr. Caffey is said to be one of the best known boxing experts in the country, and is looked upon as an authority with regard to the amount of training one should undergo.
WHEN JOHNSON MADE HIS START.
And now comes the story of the discovery of Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight pugilist, daredevil chauffeur, and pet mark for the police of many cities in their war against speeding autoist. We all know there have been enough stories of the discovery of Johnson to make the history of perpetual motion seem devoid of discoverers but Leo Posner is the man who really got him his first fight.
This all happened about ten years ago in sunny Galveston, Tex. Mr. Posner was seated in his office one day when a Negro named Charley Brooks entered and announced that he had a large consignment of human tar outside which he would like to have Mr. Posner inspect.
Brooks was a masseur and trial horse in the boxing academy of Herman Bernau. To his income as such he added a few dollars now and then by fighting some other Negro in a preliminary before the Galveston Athletic club.
"I've got an easy mark, Mr. Posner," said Brooks. "His name is Jack Johnson."
Posner stepped outside and beheld seated upon a potato barrel the hero of the championship battle with Tommy Burns. But how different his appearance from the Jack Johnson of the present day. The Johnson that Posner beheld was a tall, ragged Negro, the toes of his big feet prodding through his worn out shoes a rickety derby perched on his head.
Johnson informed Posner that he understood that if he would fight Brooks a purse would be offered for the contest. He was informed in turn that his understanding was correct, and there and then the pair were matched.
Johnson appeared at the club early on the night set for the fight. He had never been in the ring before, but he showed no sign of nervousness nor fear. Brooks, full of confidence, looked for an easy victory. He tried to play with Johnson at first, but he was unable to fool the future champion. When the men finally came together hard Johnson landed on Brooks' jaw and the latter slipped into slumberland, a look of pained surprise upon his face. He did not come to for ten minutes, and when he did his first act was to forswear boxing for the future.
Johnson at once stepped into Brooks' shoes as the champion trial horse of the club. He fought man after man and beat them all; most of them were easy for him, too.
Meanwhile Johnson's fame was spreading through the Texas black belt. It was no longer easy to find local men who would go against him, and it was necessary for the club to import some talent. Posner thereupon secured Klondike, a Negro fighter known in Philadelphia and Chicago, to come to Galveston for a bout with Johnson.
Klondike arrived and was greeted as a hero. He was ready to carry out the program mapped out for him. In fact, he did his best to carry it out. His only difficulty was that he couldn't. Otherwise he was all right. The fight went twenty rounds and was declared a draw.
Next Johnson was matched against George Lawler, the Irish giant, who fought under the name of Jack McCormick. It was thought the latter would win. But he did not. In fact, he took such a beating that he was laid up a week. Johnson was also hurt in the fight, but not badly. Johnson now became extremely chesty. Dangerously so, in fact, when one recalls what the good book says about pride. He had met only dubs up to this time, but he did not know; he thought he could whip anybody in the world and eagerly snapped at the chance of a match with Joe Choynski.
What Choynski did to him was a plenty. He simply toyed with Johnson, finally knocking him out in the

Mr. Liner's band furnished music for the occasion.
third round. This all happened in 1901, and this fight, the only one which he had lost did Johnson more good than all the rest of them. It led to his arrest—for the first time presumably—and offered him a chance to learn a lot about boxing from Choynski, who was also arrested because of the fight.
Sheriff Henry Thomas, a friend of Posner, was a good fellow, and he consented to allow Johnson and Choynski to box while in jail. Boxing gloves were sent over from the club, and every day for weeks Choynski gave Johnson practica lessons while the sheriff, prisoners and invited guests looked on. The grand jury failed to indict the fighters and they were released, but the trouble over the bout resulted in putting the boxing club out of business and Johnson was forced to go elsewhere to find matches.
Posner believes that Johnson will defeat Jeffries. He expects to be at the ringside and to have a modest bet down on the black man.
BOBBY DOBBS IS 51 YEARS OLD.
And Still Fighting—John L. Could Not Stay Two Rounds with Him.
Black fighters last a long time in the boxing game. At least there are several examples of their ability to stay good and long after their allotted time.
The case of Bobby Dobbs, the colored fighter, who is now battling in Ireland, is prominent in this respect. When Eddie McGoorty, the Oshkosh, middleweight, started training over there for the battles he secured he was amazed to learn that Bobby was still good and at the grand old age—for a fighter—of 51 years.
Bobby was born in Knoxville, Tenn., in 1859, and though his eyes have been failing him for a long time he is still able to do nicely in the rather mediocre class he is called upon to meet on the other side. Only three weeks ago he made a young boxer named Hickman quit in five rounds, of what was to have been a twenty round go.
Dobbs never had a path of roses when he was fighting in this country, for he tackled such tough ones, as Kid Lavigne, Joe Gans, Walcott, Young Peter Jackson, the Black Pearl and others of that caliber.

We meet to-day to commemorate the opening of Coney Island Park to our people. Lives in cities devoid of pure water, pure air and pure sunshine are forerunners of disease, but lives amid pure water and pure air presage health and happiness. These grounds have been opened to us with their many advantages, and the manner in which we lend our aid to the undertaking, whether we are able to enjoy greater advantages. It behooves each one of us to lend our aid and assistance to the management that ours may be the greatest park in the city. The water, alone, of which I have known all my life, is a sufficient inducement to commend the grounds to our people. No park in the city has more natural advantages than are afforded by this one. The organization of the club house and the improvements which are now being made bespeak much happiness and enjoyment in store for us. The success of this park is assured in that the class of men and women I see here bespeak success. To visit Coney Island Park once makes it doubly sure that you will call again. Let us leave here this evening working to have our friends to enjoy that which we now enjoy, then, and only then, will we have that happiness which is justly ours.

He has been in England for the past ten years and is reported as doing very well. He laughs at the idea that he, too, is too old to fight.
The reason black fighters last is they don't as a rule, dissipate and indulge in liquors as most of the white fighters, and they are continually at the game, and therefore never get stale. You will see on July 4 that Jeffries will never be able to reach the twenty-eighth round of his battle. He is stale, and his early training will make him much worse. Two months would be just enough for him; over that will cause him to use too much energy which could be used to advantage at the ringside.
