THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. V. DR. BROWN TENNESSEE'S CHOICE FOR BISHOP Defeated at the General Conference. DRS JAMISON AND STEWART THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES —ELECTED BISHOP IN AUGUSTA—GENERAL OFFICERS ALL CHANGED SAVE ONE — DR. BULLOCK RETURNED TO THE PUBLISHING HOUSE — BISHOP C. H. PHILLIPS RETURNS HOME — CONFERENCE ASSIGNS HIM TO THE WORK IN TENNESSEE. Augusta, Ga., May 16—M. F. Jamison, of Texas, and G. W. Stewart, of Alabama, were the successful candidates in the election for Bishop at the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. The result of the balloting came after strenuous efforts on the part of those opposing the election of Dr. R. T. Brown. Dr. Brown made a good race, but the ticket placed in the field against him as the leading candidate was entirely too strong. Dr. M. F. Jamison and Dr. G. W. Stewart ran neck and neck all the time, on one or two occasions persons voting for Dr. Brown and for Dr. Jamison. It is apparent that the desire of the West for a Bishop and the combination they made with Dr. Stewart, who like Dr. Brown is from Alabama, was the result of the triumph of the anti-Brown forces. J. A. Hamlette, from Kansas, and T. J. Moppins, from Tennessee, were made tellers. The result of the voting was M. F. Jamison 130; G. W. Stewart 126; R. T. Brown 109; John W. McKinney 49; R. A. Carter 19; R. S. Stout 14; A. K. Hawkins 9. Bishop C. H. Phillips presided. The other officers elected were A. J. Cobb, Georgia, for Editor of the Christian Index; E. W. Mosley, Jackson, Tenn., Secretary Church Extensions; V. Washington, Alabama, Secretary of Missions; A. R. Calhoun, Arkansas, Secretary of Epworth League Department. Rev. I. H. Jones, of Nashville, Tenn., preached a most interesting sermon from the 24th chapter of Luke, using the 49th verse, "But tarry ye in the City of Jerusalem until ye be endured with power from on high." He chose as a subject, "The essential requisite of service." His beautiful illustrations and convincing epigramms made his a most interesting message and Bishop Turner, of the A. M. E. Church, paid high compliment to the sermon. "The Church of the indomitable and matchless Senior Bishop Turner sends words of God bless you and good cheer to the church of the eloquent and learned Senior Bishop Holsey, and on this auspicious occasion it affords me infinite pleasure to stand in this magnificent presence to bear fraternal greetings from the oldest daughter of Negro Methodism to the youngest daughter. The marching army of the sainted Allen and Payne hails with delight the marching army of the sainted Miles and Bebee." Thus spoke the Rev. Dr. William Alfred Fountain, of the Georgia Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in his fraternal message to the General Conference. Continuing, he said: "The more than eight hundred thousand loyal African Methodist Episcopal soldiers salute the more than three hundred thousand loyal Colored Methodist Episcopal soldiers, both regiments facing shot and shell daily on more than a thousand battlefields, with the glorious flag of God our Father, Christ our Redeemer, Man our Brother, Holy Ghost our Comforter, floating in the breezes over their heads—each soldier having taken the oath not to know anything save Jesus and Him crucified." Dr. W. B. West, of Dallas, Texas, General Secretary of Missions, made his quadriennial report, and showed a total collection for his department NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1910. during the quadrennium of $17,773.52. An increase was shown each year. A resolution embodying a constitution and by-laws creating a Financial Secretary has been favorably reported by the Committee on Finance, and is being considered by the house. In case the resolution goes through, and the indications are that it will, the office of Financial Secretary will be created and there is already speculation as to who will be elected to this position. Dr. H. S. Doyle, a very strong man from Louisiana, introduced the bill and is championing its cause, and it is said that his friends will push his claims for the position. Dr. L. E. B. Rosser, of Washington, D. C., Prof. G. S. Goodman, a strong layman from Holly Springs, Miss, and Rev. H. J. Johnson, Presiding E'lder of the Nashville District, all have been mentioned for the place. METHODIST CONFERENCE. Augusta, Ga., May 16—Resolutions requiring the Bishops to rotate in the supervision of districts and prohibiting their remaining in one district more than one quadrennium were adopted to-day by the General Conference of the Colored M. E. Church. The character of Bishops Holsey and Lane were passed. Rev. H. Bullock was re-elected manager of the publishing house in Jackson, Tenn., where he has served twelve years. He is now general church treasurer, having the charge of all the general funds. Bishop C. H. Phillips, the resident Bishop of that connection, was assigned to the fifth district, which comprises the states of Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and California. In speaking to a Globe representative, the Bishop expressed himself as highly pleased with his work as it will enable him to spend more time at home and have an opportunity to rest. Colored Methodists Adjourn Augusta, Ga., May 18. After appointing Dr. J. W. Gilbert, of Augusta, Ga., Supt. of the African Mission Field and assigning the Bishops to their respective districts for the next four years, the general conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church came to a close at noon today. Much business of importance was transacted, Memphis, Little Rock, St. Louis, Kansas City and Birmingham made bids for the next conference in 1914, but the matter was referred to the general conference commission. BISHOP SMITH Bishop C. S. Smith, who was for several years the Secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday-School Union, was in the city Wednesday. Bishop came to Nashville to preside over the annual Board meeting of the Sunday-School Union Printing House. He left Wednesday night for Atlanta, Ga., to be present at the commencement exercises of Morris Brown College, which is fostered by the African Methodist Church of the state of Georgia. The other members of the Board present were Rev. S. G. Roseborough, D. D.; Rev. W. H. Thomas, D. D.; Rev. J. M. Turner, D. D.; Mr. Richard Hill, Mr. T. J. Rhodes and Mr. Levi Adams. A PRESENT NEED—A FEW TRUST MAKERS IN JAIL, SAYS TAFT. (From an interview with the President in the June McClures's.) The serious difficulty in prosecuting men or corporations for creating monopolies comes as a matter of fact,—in criminal cases,—not from the lack of convincing evidence, but from the reluctance of parties to send the individual offender to prison for what he has done. His acts are newly created crimes; they are mala prohibita, not mala in se. It is easy for the average citizen to declaim about what should be done to the makers of trusts, but when he is actually in the jury-box, he finds it very difficult to send a man to jail for practices, that until within a comparatively short time, have been considered legitimate and clever. MEN ONLY. Rev. T. L. Jones, of Ennis, Texas, who is visiting in our city, will address men only at the First Baptist Church Sunday afternoon at three thirty o'clock. REV. W. S. ELLINGTON, Pastor. Drs. S. A. Oneal and Wm. Glover, of Henderson, Ky., spent Sunday in the city. The former preached an eloquent and able sermon in the evening at St. Paul A. M. E. Church. THE CLOSING THE CLOSING OF ROGER WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY Attended by Large Number of Citizens. BACCALAUREATE SERMON ON SUNDAY — COMMENCEMENT DAY WEDNESDAY — ALUMNI MEETING WELL ATTENDED— SEVERAL TRUSTEES PRESENT —HON. JOHN BELL KEEBLE DELIVERS ANNUAL ADDRESS— SPOKE IN HIGH TERMS OF THE WORK BEING DONE—HONORARY DEGREES CONFERRED— NEEDS OF THE UNIVERSITY. At 3 o'clock p. m. last Sunday afternoon, the Baccalaureate Sermon for the commencement week was preached in the chapel of the University. The sermon was delivered by Rev. E. M. Lawrence, B. Th., Superintendent of Missions for the Baptists of Tennessee. A splendid audience greeted the speaker. The exercises were strictly high-class, being opened with music, "Diadem," by the university chorus. This was followed by Scripture reading and invocation; then music, "No Shadows Yonder." It was at this juncture that Rev. Lawrence was introduced by President Johnson, delivering a masterly sermon on the occasion. The speaker is an alumnus of the university, for which he has been ardently at work, being responsible in a measure for its re-establishment. After the sermon, a quartet composed of Messrs. Holsey, Thornton, Burns and Prof. Jackson rendered "One Sweetly Solemn Thought." On Tuesday night, May 17, at 8 p.m., the alumni had their exercises. The program opened with the university chorus singing "Water Lillies." Invocation, and then a vocal solo by Miss Anna Rucker. The annual address to the alumni was delivered by Rev. J. C. Fields, A. B., Nashville. Rev. Fields is the pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church. He spoke on "Men of the Hour." His discourse was regarded as a splendid effort, touching upon the necessity of training men in every walk of life. He attached much importance to the educational advantages being offered to the race at this particular time, making a beautiful climax by the contribution Roger Williams had made in the past year by fitting men for duty. After the sermon, Mr. Samuel E. Herrod rendered a vocal solo, "The Earl King." The audience was appreciative, and unusually large for the inclementy of the weather. The forty-first commencement exercise of the university was held Wednesday, May 18, at 11 a. m., in the newly furnished chapel of Phillip's Hall. The program consisted of a processional march; then music, "Recessional" (Rudyard-Kipling) by the university chorus. Dr. Kumler, President of Walden University, offered prayer. A piano duo was rendered by Mrs. J. W. DeWees and S. E. Herrod. An oration, "The Passing of the Cloud," which had been assigned to William Robert Cantrell, was omitted by agreement. Miss Eddie Kelley Johnson read an essay on "Sunshine a Necessity." Miss Emma Golden Webb read an essay on "Making a Mark in Life." A chorus of mixed voices here gave an inspiring musical selection. Then Miss Virginia Lee Linder captured the audience with an essay on "The Teacher's Responsible Task." The Glee Club sang "Neath de Dear Ol' Southern Pines." President Johnson then introduced Hon. H. W. Buttorff, a trustee of the university, who in turn introduced Mr. Slaughter, an attorney-at-law, who is legal attorney for the board of trustees. Mr. Slaughter, after a few brief remarks, presented Hon. John Bell Keeble, who delivered the commencement address to the graduates. Mr. Keeble paid a very high compliment to the struggles, achievements and accomplishments that the management had been able to score with so little means, and under such adverse circumstances. He said that Roger Williams, under the new regime, could hardly have accomplished more with what means they had at their disposal, and that certainly the university could hardly have been more beautifully located. His statement that the institution had, was and is still a potent factor in the development of the race, was received with applause. He said that the class which he was addressing was going out to take hold of the realities of life; that they were going out to brave the failures and successes that would come to them after the school life had ended. He touched beautifully upon the divine plan of God that had put it into the heart of men and women who were struggling for recognition. "Every man and woman is clamoring for recognition," said the speaker. He declared that it was not those that fell in front of the breastworks or died in the trenches on the battlefield that received the major part of recognition, but it was to those who scaled the dismal heights, captured the fortresses that were really given the recognition that they were in search of. The pictures he drew of two contending forces were master-pieces. He declared that there were temporal and spiritual objects to be dealt with in the fight for recognition. He said that self-recognition was the essence of real life. Concluding he said that there could come recognition by honest work; recognition by honest thinking and recognition by feeling honestly. "No more practical address has ever been delivered to a commencement exercise," was the emphatic declaration of Prof. Johnson after the conclusion of the address. Two honorary degrees of A. B. were conferred during the day. One on Mrs. Mattie Roach Booth, of Normal, Ala.; the other on Rev. Edward Reeves Williams, of Hopkinsville, Ky. After this announcement, Rev. William Haynes, trustee of university board, made an appeal in behalf of the unfinished work on Phillips Hall, which was liberally responded to. The Ladies' Missionary Society, of Nashville, sent in $21.60, while $64.80 was raised in the collection in less than fifteen minutes. The benediction was pronounced by Rev. T. J. Townsend, D. D., pastor of Spruce Street Baptist Church. Lunch was served to the visitors on the grounds. --- COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES OF TENNESSEE SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND—COLORED DEPARTMENT. The commencement exercises of the Colored Department of the Tennessee School for the Blind are to be rendered in the chapel of the school on Friday, May 20, at 7:30 p. m., and continuing with the intervention of a few days, until June 1st. The first of the exercises is a Piano Forte Recital by Mirium Johnson, assisted by the Glee Club, Alton Algee and Miss Davis on Friday, May 20, at 7:30 p. m. The program numbers for this occasion are well selected and speak well for the thorough methods employed by this department of the school. On the following Thursday, May 26, at 7:30 p.m. the annual Exhibition of the Musical Department. This event has always proved a helpful as well as interesting occasion aside from the student standpoint or view. It acquaints one with the line of work undertaken and shows how finely these students measure up with others whom we hear from time to time and who are much more fortunate. The Rev. G. Lake Imes, of Howard Congregational Church, on Sunday, May 29, at 3 p.m., preaches the annual sermon. On Monday, May 30, at 7:30, a concert is to be given by the Primary Department. A good concert may be expected. On the afternoon of May 31, at 3:30 p.m., a concert will be given for Superintendent, Trustees, patrons and friends of the school. The final event of the commencement is the concert by the Grammar and High School Department. Wednesday, June 1st, at at 7:30 p.m. These exercises mark the close of another successful year.

FILLED MEMORIAL CHAPEL ON FRIDAY NIGHT, MAY 13—THIS CLUB RENDERS MANY CLASSICAL SELECTIONS—MANY INDIVIDUALS DESERVING OF SPECIAL MENTION—FAMOUS FISK QUARTETTE COMES IN FOR BIG SHARE OF APPLAUSE—MR. MYERS AT HIS BEST IN READING DUNBAR SELECTIONS — FOLK SONGS IMMENSELY ENJOYED. The annual concert of the Fisk Glee Club Friday, May 13, drew out the largest concert audience in the history of Fisk Memorial Chapel, and the verdict was that all who attended were well repaid for coming. The director, Prof. J. W. Work, has been absent on a tour with the Fisk Quartet, leaving his work to be done by Mr. H. S. Burnam, '10, who had charge until one week before the concert. Mr. Burnam's long connection with the club, together with his training and hearty co-operation of all the young men, stood him in good stead, and to these circumstances is due a very large part of the success of the ensemble work. Prof. Work expressed himself as highly pleased with the work done in his absence, and declared that he had hardly been missed. The concert opened with Dudley Buck's "Huntsman's Chorus," from Don Munio, rendered with an abandon and dash that set a fine pace for the following numbers. Of the Folk Songs rendered, possibly the most interesting and characteristic was "I know I have another building," which brought out the strange and weird ejaculations so natural to our people, and which were so aptly and fittingly supplied by Mr. Myers, who is about the best exponent of this kind of work of the present day. There was a variety in the program, more extended than ever before, and the fact that there were more encores than original numbers shows how completely the audience enjoyed the entertainment. Besides the regular ensemble numbers, two quartets, the regular Fisk Quartet which has been touring the East and Middle West since last September, and the second quartet, a very fine organization, gave selections. The former rendered the difficult composition. "The Bugle Song," by Gilchrist, and the latter "The Rosary," by North. Both had to respond to encores. As an encore to Coleridge-Taylor's "On away, awake, beloved." Prof. Work sang his "Lullaby," accompanied by the other members of his quartet. Mr. Chas. Wesley sang the solo, "The Red, Red Rose," by Cook, accompanied by the whole club, as arranged by Mr. L. J. Searcy. It had to be repeated. Mr. Roland Hayes was supported by the club while he sang "No one knows," also arranged by Mr. Searcy. Mr. Ryder sang to the accompaniment of the other voices of the quartet, "Old Black Joe." The arrangement, together with Mr. Ryder's superb bass voice and interpretation, make this song a most highly enjoyable number. This, too, was repeated. Mr. Myers in his Dunbar selections, was at his best, which means more than can be expressed. His first number, "Deacon Jones' Grievance," was followed by three encores; "When Malindy Sings," "The Party" and "Two L'l Boots," the last of which brought tears to many eyes. During an intermission President G. A. Gates made appropriate remarks before the "Anxetaphone" kindly furnished by Mr. Welburn, of the Houck Piano Co., played some of the records made for the Victor Company by the Fisk Quartet last winter in New York. All in all, the whole affair was most satisfactory, interesting and artistic, and the audience enjoyed it immensely. Miss E. J. Pinkard spent Sunday in Murfreesboro visiting her mother.

The regular monthly meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board was held in the office of the Secretary Tuesday. Chairman Clark, who usually presides at these meetings, knowing that he would not be present, had previously arranged with Chairman Robinson, of Little Rock, who came over to preside at this meeting. Important matters pertaining to the close of the year's work of the Publishing Board, are said to have been the main feature of the meeting, together with that of the Sunday-School Congress, which will have convened before the next regular monthly meeting. The out of town members were represented by proxy. The meeting lasted the better part of the forenoon and a part of the afternoon. Secretary Boyd reported having made trips through South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and a part of Louisiana in the interest of the work since the last meeting. It was also stated that the missionary matters in the several states had come up for consideration. The Missionary Committee reported that the matters pertaining to Tennessee had been amiably settled. The appointment of several missionaries was reported, confirmed, especially Rev. Dr. White, of South Carolina, and Dr. Bailey, of Texas, Report of the Printing Committee was also taken up and submitted for the third and fourth quarter 1910, showing the amount of printing contemplated for the remaining part of the year. OBITUARY. The subject of this sketch, Mrs. Daisy R. Arceneaux, (deceased) nee Miss Daisy R. Boyd, was born August 18, 1874, at San Antonio, Texas, and died May 8, 1910, at 11:45 a.m., at her residence, 1512 Eighteenth avenue, North. She received her early training in the public schools of San Antonio, receiving the finishing touches at Guadalupe College. Seguin, Texas, from whence she returned to San Antonio, Texas, where she met Mr. Buckner, to whom she was married in 1895. Not long after moving to San Francisco, Cal., a baby, the present Mercy Lea Buckner, was born unto the union; alas, however, time saw fit for them to separate afterwhich she returned to San Antonio, thence to Nashville, in 1902, and after a stay here of several months with her brother, Geo. O. Boyd, who was then single, she returned again to California, where she underwent a very serious operation. She remained here till the great earthquake, which occurred several years ago, forced her to leave those parts, whence she fled to New Orleans, the home of her present husband. From there she came again to visit her brother, several years ago and decided to take up permanent residence here. On September 22, 1908, she was married to Mr. C. C. Arceneaux, to whom she was devoted and attentive, and proved her self a most excellent helpmate until death, the value of which cannot be estimated in words. She received her early Christian training in Mt. Zion Baptist Church, San Antonio, Texas, professing a hope in Christ during the pastorate of Dr. R. H. Boyd, of this city, by whom she was baptized. "Twas in this Christian world that her life shined brightest, her daily effort being to do something for Christ and humanity. She spent the latter days of her life in trying to organize the Universal Co-operative League, a work of which she was the sole author. But God in his own way saw fit to intervene, and she was brought to her bed last Thursday, from which she never arose. She kept the faith to the last, and her latest remark to her brother Saturday night was, "I feel all right, but pray for me." Later on she said to her husband, "Brace me up high, for to-morrow I will be on my back." She was conscious till death, apparently smiling at her husband and baby as she passed into the sweet beyond. She leaves a husband, one little girl, several brothers and sisters, relatives and friends to mourn their loss. She goes to join the immediate family, her mother and father, who have gone on before. NEGRO DOLLS IN OHIO. That the Negro doll is winning its own battle for popularity wherever it goes, evidenced through the following letter which was recently received. "Hamilton, Ohio, April 29, 1910. "Dear Brother: "The young lady arrived on time and went immediately to hearts of all present at the wedding, and has been the cause of happy comment from all sides. "We had a deal of pleasure with her. Everybody admired her; not one of our Hamilton people had ever seen a real Negro doll. "She has a fine home and when you come to see us I shall take you to see her. All honor to the originator of the unique idea. "Your brother, "JAMES W. FORT, "337 Chestnut street, Hamilton, O." FAYETTEVILLE A PROGRESSIVE TOWN. Fayetteville, Jenn.—One of the oldest and possibly one of the best known towns in Tennessee is Fayetteville. It is situated on the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Roalroad, and is noted for the high-class citizenship to be found throughout the country. Some of the oldest and some of the most noted personages in public affairs point with pride to Fayetteville, as their home. The condition of affairs that exists here is not found in every section of the South. There is a friendship existing between the races, that is a helpful sign for the future progress and prosperity of all the people. There has not been a time in the recollection of the oldest residents of this town when the relation of the races was ever estranged. The leaders have been very careful to cement the feelings between the races in a way that it has never broken. There are men living in this city that have resided here since the county was first settled—they are contributing their influence to the coming proposed celebration, which is already under way, and which points to a splendid success. The religious atmosphere is possibly different in Fayetteville to that of other cities or communities, in that there is no rivalry between the churches nor denominations. They seem to help one another. While there are four distinct Negro churches in the city, each of them carries a splendid congregation. The African Methodist, Missionary Baptist, Cumberland Presbyterian and Colored Methodist Episcopal are the denominations represented; each has an intelligent, cultured man as a pastor. There are contractors, merchants and farmers in this county and city, who have built up an enviable reputation for honesty, frugality and loyalty. The thriftiness of the people marks them far different in every respect to those usually found in other communities, which argues much for them in the eyes of those who look to this section of Tennessee for results. METHODIST UNITE. The ministers of the M.E., C. M. E. and A. M. E. Churches assembled in the study at St. John A. M. E. Church, organized what is known as the Methodist Ministers' Union. Rev. W. Conway Smith, D. D., presiding elder of the C. M. E. Church was elected president. Rev. J. C. Means, of the M. E. Church, vice president; Rev. T. W. Haigler, presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church, secretary; Rev. A. Brooks, pastor of St. John, A. M. E. Church was elected treasurer; Rev. T. J. Moppins, pastor of Capers Chapel C. M. E. Church was elected critic; Rev. I. H. Jones, pastor of Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church, assistant secretary; Rev. Benjamin Anderson, pastor of Braden Chapel M. E. Church, chaplain; Rev. W. Gaines, reporter; Program Committee: Revs. D. A. Graham, chairman, T. J. Johnson, H. Johnson, Hawker Executive Committee: Revs. W. Conway Smith, T. W. Haigler, A. Brooks The union contemplates launching a paper of its own that shall be known as the Union Headlight. A committee looking to that end was appointed. The union will meet every Wednesday at St. John A. M. E. Church at 10:00 o'clock a. m. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. The month of May has brought renewed life to the association. The first meeting on Sunday, May 1st, was the most interesting meeting witnessed at the headquarters. The subject for discussion was "I've o'er-looked the past; what shall I do in the future?" The attendance was good and every one present spoke on the subject, making new resolutions, as this was the anniversary Sunday of the organization. All promised more support to the Y. M. C. A. movement. The Bible Study Class was slightly increased last Wednesday. We are praying that more may yet realize the opportunity as offered to learn more of the Bible. Come Wednesday from 6:30 to 7:30 p. m. The meeting Sunday, May 8th, was one long to be remembered. The subject for discussion, "The Power of Punctuality," was led by Prof. H. A. Cameron. Everybody was greatly interested in this all important subject. The attendance was quite large. On May 15, (Sunday), the program will be somewhat augmented. There will be a joint discussion of two subjects, "Self-Sontrol," by Messrs. H. G. Fite and W. H. Hollins, and "The Y. M. C. A. as a Banking Business," by Messrs. A. B. West and E. L. Klinzer. A crowded house is expected. Come at 3 p. m. and be one of the large number. The educational-classes continue. Let more join in and help each other. The Y. M. C. A. is intended as a helping hand, which is mutual—Why not you help and be helped? Attend the meetings; be come interested and "join." Wednesday night, May 4th, the members of the Y. M. C. A. met and elected officers for the ensuing year. This meeting showed the Y. M. C. A. to be in better condition now than formerly. It was quite encouraging to hear the annual reports of the officers and to see the actual work done. The selection of officers for the year is as follows: Directors, Rev. Preston Taylor, Rev. S. Jackson, Dr. S. S. Caruthers, Messrs. J. P. Porter, H. G. Fite, A. B. West, Profs. J. B. Batte, H. A. Cameron, S. P. Marris, E. W. Benton, F. N. Greene, Messrs. S. F. Williams, W. H. Hollins, E. L. Kinzer and R. L. Mayfield. J. P. Porter, President; H. G. Fite, Vice-President; E. L. Kinzer, Recording Secretary; S. S. Caruthers, General Secretary. These officers are very hopeful for a successful year's work. They have pledged themselves to do what ever they can for the association and are deeply interested in its success. We notice, to start with, that quite a number fail to attend any of the meetings and are somewhat in arrears financially. We are especially anxious to have everybody whose name is enrolled to straighten up their accounts. Those who cannot come to the headquarters may send the amount. Attend the meetings at the headquarters on Sunday afternoons. It will help you. The Board of Directors is called to meet Wednesday evening, May 18, at 7:30 p. m. at the Y. M. C. A. rooms. Y.M.L.C. The Young Men's Literary Club will meet with Mr. Mansfield Douglass, of 1805 1-2 State street, next Monday night. It is urgently requested that all members be present as there is some very important business to be transacted. Please respond promptly at eight o'clock. E. L. KINZER, President. H. J.

Mitchell, President of the University of South Carolina. The Trinity Church, (Boston,) Prize Contest will be held Tuesday, May 24th, at 7:30 o'clock p. m., in the Institute Chapel. This exercise has always been one of the most interesting events of Commencement Week, and promises to be even more interesting than usual this year. The Seventeenth Anniversary Exercises of the Phelps Hall Bible Training School will be held Monday, May 23rd, at 7:30 o'clock p. m., in the Institute Chapel, Rev. W. H. Logan, pastor Wesley M. E. Church, will deliver the address.

William H. Lewis, Assistant U. S. District Attorney, Boston, Mass. The different divisions of the school will be in operation during Commencement Week and on May 26th, so that visitors and friends will have ample opportunity to inspect the work of the students in the various divisions. All indications point to the largest attendance in the history of the institution, and special arrangements have been made for the accommodation of all visitors, a large number of whom will probably take advantage of this opportunity to visit the institution.

In their quadrennial addresses the Bsihops of the M. E. Church, South, said: "No church has better understood or been more successful in its work for the Negro than has ours, until now and more thoughtful men of the nation are turning to us for counsel, and the Negro himself for leadership. We have maintained the most cordial relations with our contingent of Negro Methodists so long organically connected with us, and who since their separation have grown from less than 20,000 in 1870 to 233,000 in 1910, with more than $3,000,000 in church property, aside from their schools and colleges. Their growth during the sixteen years covered by the last census was 33.7 per cent, while the growth of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, the largest body of Methodists, was 9.3 per cent. For twenty-five years their oldest colleges, which we helped to found and maintain, have done much toward recruiting their ministry with worthy leaders. They lack what is all-important to their best development as a church—the missionary passion. They are now being moved with a deepening desire to obey the great commission. How shall we, their spiritual fathers and trusted leaders, help them to find themselves in this new age? Under the leadership of men like Bishops Andrew and Capers and Paine, a single annual conference was known to raise each year as much as $25,000 for missionary work among the Negroes. Robert Paine, as early as in 1823, offered himself as a missionary to Africa, asking to be accompanied by selected companions from among the negro preachers of the South. That spirit gave us more than 200,000 converts among the Negroes in this country before the Civil War—the largest returns from missionary work among the heathen then known in history. Their songs and prayers safeguarded many a plantation home in the darkest days of fratricidal strife. We owe them no less a debt of gratitude than they owe us, for we were "companions in the sorrowful way." Methodism has never fairly faced Mohammedanism, the most formidable foe of Christianity. Africa is now becoming the great field of the propagandists of the religion of the false prophet. The battlefield of the twentieth century is the Dark continent. Shall Ethiopia in vain stretch out her hands unto God, and our great Methodism more in sympathy with the Negro than any other, and better capable of inspiring and directing his labors, have no part in the conquest of the Dark Continent for our Lord? Is not the force actually preparing for our leadership, as when young Paine longed to go out to battle? May we not hope and pray that the greatest chapter in the history of missions shall be this yet unwritten chapter which the hand of God shall write in Africa as He leads our awakened ministers and laymen to their gracious and glorious open door of opportunity? REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN TO BE LAUNCHED. The Executive Committee of Davidson County held a most interesting meeting last Saturday in the hall of the Twin Building on Cedar street. It is understood that the entire meeting was devoted to discussion and the laying of plans by which a Republican campaign could be launched that would result in the success of the various candidates who will, no doubt, be selected at an early date to carry off the Republican honors in the coming county and state election. The political condition seems to have been the all-absorbing topic, and yet some attention was given to several prominent federal positions that are to be handed out. The consideration and report of the party's endorsement of Hon. J. C. Napier for the Registry of the Treasury was not a secret. It had been expected, in fact, it was with difficulty that this important action could be delayed sufficiently long enough to come up in its regular order. The endorsement by the entire Executive Committee, as is reported to have been the case, is considered by the friends of Mr. Napier and by the strong adherents of the party to be much in his favor. That he is slated could hardly be denied, and yet no PENTECOSTAL CHURCHES. Holiness, 605 Twelfth Avenue, N.—Rev. James B. Crosby, pastor. Sunday services 11:30 a. m. and 7 p. m.

FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1910. HASTY FORGIVENESS. The Negroes of Nashville, and generally everywhere, are as a rule too hasty to forgive men and women of wrongs committed against the race. We understand that forgiveness comes after repentance, but sometimes the guilty party becomes defiant and demands of the public forgiveness before they have thought of repenting for the wrong done. Several cases of this kind have been witnessed in Nashville in recent years, and the people, out of mere sympathy, have decided that he or she was misled. In some instances the facts have been too clear to admit of any doubt of the guilt of the accused. For instance, a man who is under heavy bond for an offense that should put him in the penitentiary for life at hard labor, has the boldness to go before the people and ask them to listen to him lecture on moral issues—guilty of having debauched a home and lecturing on morals. The people, out of sympathy, accept that as repentance, when as a matter of fact it is audacity of the vilest type The Negroes of Nashville, who expect to be looked upon as worthy citizens, will have to exercise more courage in matters of this kind. They must have the courage to condemn wrong-doing in a way that will be understood by the world. They must learn that if they would have their children be moral men and women they must convince those children that they, as their parents, do not countenance the evil doings of anyone. Especially must the children be taught that those men and women who are entrusted with their care and training must live honest, moral lives, and when one betrays a trust that individual must be put aside to remain forever. FORTUNE'S TIRADE. The Richmond Planet in a recent issue referred to the tirade of T. Thomas Fortune on Bishop W. J. Gaines, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The Planet suggests to the New York Age that if Bishop Gaines can be induced to tell what he knows about Mr. Fortune through its columns that paper could sell thousands of copies at a fancy price. There is more truth than fiction in The Planet's suggestion. --- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1910. Bishop Gaines has lived a life of usefulness. He has given his best energies to the uplift of his people. He is now, though well advanced in years, still progressively fighting the battles of the race. On the other hand, the Hon. T. Thomas Fortune has been a hindrance to race uplift. He was at one time owner and publisher of the leading Negro journal in the world, and he himself was conceded to be one of the brainiest editors in this country, but to-day he is the tool of any who wish to use him to an end. Why is this so? Has any man or set of men taken advantage of Mr. Fortune and robbed him of his holdings and his honor? Why does the once-brilliant writer, T. Thomas Fortune, whose name was a cogency in every community, resort to methods almost desperate in attempts to discredit the efforts of one of the leading men in the country, a churchman of no ill repute. The answer is alleged that he looked on the wine too often when it gave its color to the cup. No one rejoices at the downfall of so able a man as Mr. Fortune. In fact, every Negro in this country is in need of the service such a man could render his race, but he who so forgets himself or who gives over to temptations and allows them to get the better of him cannot blame others for the consequences that are sure to follow. When a man is falling he naturally grabs at every body to check his decent. He cannot be blamed for that. When he is down, he feels that any one who is up, and who is looked upon by the people as a good and useful citizen would make him a boon companion. The thinking people, therefore, realizing the state of the man's mind who is down should not allow him to pull down others. They ought to sympathize with the unfortunate one, but not to the detriment of others. It is probable that Bishop Gaines could tell enough about Mr. Fortune to make an interesting story, but he is not that kind of a man. While the tirade doubtless pricked him to the core, we believe he is too courageous and too much imbued with the spirit of the Messiah to strike a man who is already down. STATE FAIR. The Colored State Fair Association at a meeting last Tuesday night decided to begin at once to make preparations for the fair this year. This is a wise move. To have a fair that will represent the progress of the Negroes of Tennessee requires that those who are to manage affairs get together at the earliest date possible and formulate plans. The C. M. E. General Conference adjourned last Wednesday at noon after having been in session two weeks. This conference will go on record for expediting business. Among the many things for which the delegates of that conference should be commended was the re-election of Dr. Bullock as manager of their publishing house. Bishop C, S. Smith was in the city this week for a few hours. We invite the distinguished prelate to come again when time is not pressing him so hard. Next week the Baptist Sundayschool workers will invade Georgia. The Cracker State is getting a lion's share of the Negro meetings this year. Halley's comet has swept the earth, and being a new broom, left the mortal beings to battle on in this world a while longer. SPECIAL CALL All the Lodges and Queen Esther Courts of the I. O.

Has any teacher in Fisk University the right to put their hand on any of the young men and ladies, to push and shove a young lady down the hall, force her in a chair and then lift her up and force her into a room? This has been done at Fisk University and the punishment has been applied, not to the one who has been the executor of such acts, but to the one upon whom such things have been practiced. Do the Negroes of Nashville or any where countenance such actions on the part of any teacher in Fisk University? AN ALUMNUS. Recognition in Full Not many moons ago a local paper in discussing "The Story of the Negro" by Dr. Booker T. Washington, repudiated the incident of the gate keepers' inability to discriminate "white Negroes" and "white folks" at a certain southern exposition, saying such a thing is impossible; adding, a "white Negro" is easily detected, etc. Since that time, right here in Nashville, this same paper has published in its marriage list, "whites," the names of several "Negroes" who made no attempt to "pass." Of course, this matter is taken from the records and the paper is not responsible for more than the statement it made. This is the judgment of the clerk—"white." When this paper made the remark it was a wonder how it could be done. Negroes have the same faculties for determining and they don't know who's who any more than the "blameless clerk." The Public School Teacher. The demand upon the public school teacher seems to be growing at an alarming rate. His responsibilities are constantly increasing. Perhaps there is no other class of professionals that accept the duties assigned with as little complaint. Who is as poorly paid as these toiling, overworked people? Can he properly care for himself; have the necessary literature, that his position requires; travel, that his views may be broadened and "lay up for the rainy day," at this rate? Would it not be better for all concerned if the principals of the schools were given an opportunity, (salary continued and expenses allowed) to visit various schools in this and other states, each year? Should not every teacher receive a salary commensurate with his qualifications, visit new points of interest, attend summer schools every vacation? At this rate are we not in danger of loosing some of our strong men and women from the ranks? It should re remembered that the teacher can pass examinations for other kinds of work that command a larger salary and continue twelve months in the year. What is our duty toward the teacher? Are the buildings, equipments, grounds and surroundings suitable for the highest developments of the children? MARIA C. KINNEY. FARMERS AND CITIZENS SAVINGS BANK.

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. SEND 25c. FOR SAMPLE COPY.

I actually thought our club would have to go sine nomine, After we had discussed and overhauled every name we had ever heard of and were, in fact, get- ting quite desperate, one of the girls jumped up and cried; “Girls, hear ye! I have an inspiration. Let’s call our club the ——.”. But 1 won't dare tell the name for I would never be for- given. We call ourselves the K. K. K,’s—each K being the first letter of a word of the name. The boys have tried so hard to guess it. They have called us the Ku Klux Klan, the Candy Kid Club, and Can't Cook Club, ‘the Can't Cook Cabbage Club, and in fact, every name imaginable beginning with C or K. 1 don't think we girls really thought that we would ever keep the name, for the girl who pro- posed the name did it for a joke. But it has “stuck,” and we would not change it now for any other name. We meet every two weeks, on Tues- day evening, at the nome of one of the members, chosen aiphabetically, and our purpose is for the social and mental improvement of our members. The first year I fear that our mental improvement was sadly neglected, forourclub meetings were merely ‘so- cial affairs with “eats” to top off with, but this winter we are trying to live up to our constitutionar requirements and have planned a program that will exercise our brains as well as our tongues. At the beginning of the year a program committee is elected to plan and make the year book. The above is a clipping from the ‘May number of the Circle.

When three or four hundred persons perish in some steamboat dis- aster or theatre fire, the world stands aghast at the calamity. Yet our rail- ways have brought about an average of 328 deaths each month, since 1903. Many a tidy little city has fewer adult male inhabitants than the 4,534 em- ployees whom our railroads killed in 1907. 6 EE OUT OF TOWN NOTES. MARTIN NOTES. Beautiful Junction Lodge G, U. 0. O.

On that night will occur the graduating exercises of those com- pleting the eighth grade. There will not be any graduates from the High School Department this year. In point of attendance and _ interest shown in the work, this has been the most successful year in’ the history of the school. Great efforts will be made to put the sehool on even high- er basis next year than it has ever been.

Any Person Who Wants to go to Atlanta on the Congress Rates, May 25-30, May Do So. In response to special questions about the Congress rates, it was definitely learned from the Secretary of the Congress, that while these excursion rates to Atlanta had been made especially on account of the meeting of the Sunday-School Congress in Atlanta that any person in Nashville, the state of Tennessee or the United States, could take advantage of the rates and go to the Congress on Atlanta. Several people had asked if they would be permitted to go, stating that they were not Baptists, but wanted to take advantage of this rate to visit the beautiful city of Atlanta, Many were born and reared in Georgia and want to go home. Any one, according to the Secretary's statement, can purchase these tickets from the railroad agents at the excursion rate. They will also be favored with sleeping car accommodation on the special Congress train, which will carry sleepers, chair cars and day coaches. Applications for berths in the sleeper should be made early, so that additional sleepers might be put on to accommodate the large crowd that will attend.

What unquestionably means the retention of American college football was the action of the intercollegiate football rules committee taken at its meeting in Philadelphia last month when it adopted changes in the rules, which will go a long way in eliminating the dangerous features of the great college game, at the same time simplifying the sport. Since 1905, when the rules were changed so radically because of the number of fatalities and serious injuries, there has been an annual howl from people opposed to the game who wanted the sport abolished. The heads of the various institutions were compelled to bring pressure to bear on the heads of the athletic departments and in the winter of 1905-06 the rules committee held a meeting in New York and it was at this session that the forward pass, one of the spectacular plays of modern football, was adopted for the express purpose of opening up the game in the hope of making it safer. After a long and stormy session, the committee finally agreed on two things, which are the best results which it possibly could have accomplished. It was agreed to confine the forward pass to the zone back of the line of scrimmage and reduced the number of yards to be gained in three downs from ten to eight yards. The adoption of the rule in regard to the forward pass means the inevitable abolition of the play, which has characterized football for the last four years. It is mighty hard to conceive of the play being of much value when confined back of the line of scrimmage. Instead of the long, accurate throw to a player on one side of the field, forward passing now undoubtedly will be confined back of the line between the tackles and the play will be used to the best advantage on fake bucks and split interference plays. Instead of the long throw, there now will be the short hand to hand pass with the quarter back whirling for deception, at the same time hiding the ball as much as possible. The reduction of the number of yards from ten to eight means a reversion to the game of football played before 1906. With the forward pass confined to certain limits, the secondary defense can now play up closer to the line of scrimmage to reinforce it at the points of attack. Instead of the flucky touchdowns which often have marred otherwise good football games when a forward pass went astray, the teams from now on will have to earn their five points through ability and not by luck. Before, when the forward pass could be thrown anywhere, the secondary offense was obliged to play back of the line of scrimmage at least ten yards to be alert for throws and never was in any position to reinforce the forwards. Consequently when an offensive team made a concentrated attack of three or more players aimed at one man, it was out of the question for the defensive player to check such an onslaught. Now the secondary defense can play much closer to the line and is in easy position to help out the forwards. Drives off the tackles and end runs with the tackles or ends shifted will be the plays used mostly to gain the necessary distances. The committee will meet again in New York the latter part of this month, when final action will be taken on all pionts, and if it adopts as good rules as it did at Philadelphia, a safe, sane, and simple game of football is assured. OPINIONS OF FIGHT DIFFER. Many thought the ex-cowboy was entitled to the verdict, while as many more were in favor of the black man from Boston. The majority of those who favored the former were inclined to credit Ketchel with a victory on his work in the sixth round, when he forced the fighting and apparently punished Langford severely. The Langford contingent favored the black man because the contest was a boxing bout and to their minds Langford showed himself to be the better boxer of the two. But while there was a great difference of opinion as to which had the better of the encounter, there seems to be a settled opinion that Langford did not extend himself and that he could have done much better had it been necessary. There was a feeling that Langford was saving Stanley for a longer bout in the west, but if he was then he seems to have ruined his chances, for it is doubtful if the men ever met under the same con- THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 20, 1910. ditions which they boxed here. Ketchel is quoted as saying: "I will never fight Langford again unless he weighs in at 154 pounds." The Big Fighters on the Coast. It is not an easy thing even for a man who knows all about conditioning a pugilist to know just exactly what condition his man is in. Consequently you may be pretty sure it is not likely that a man who has no special knowledge on the subject, can take one look at Jeffries and know whether he is just as he should be at this distance away from July 4. There is one great fact in Jeffries' favor that should be patent to every one, and that is the persistence with which he has gone to work and stuck to it. He is taking the best of care of himself and has for a year. During that time he has gradually increased the amount of exercise he takes daily until he has worked it up to enough to tire a horse. On paper, and without any information concerning a lot of minor details, I should say that the plan of getting back into shape mapped out by the Californian is admirable. I refuse to go intoysteries over a story that he has a boil, or that his blood is in terrible condition. I do not believe it is, and certainly he has no trouble now which he did not have before his last couple of battles. "Shellof a man" is a phrase which came into popular use in the late fighting days of Corbett. It was applied to him. Of late it has come to be applied to Jeffries by a number of alarmists who a few months ago thought Ketchel had a chance with Johnson. Jeffries is not a shell of a man." Far from it; he never will be, and the catch phrase will never fit him. If Jeffries is beaten he will go down to defeat because of his general inferiority. *** Johnson is out on the coast and has at last got down to hard work. He is as easy in his training work—or rather has been—as Jeffries is strenuous. This is but natural, as the Negro has not a long retirement from the ring to overcome. One thing certain is that in the work done so far by both men Johnson has had no advantage in the men who surrounded him. While it is true that he probably knows how to get himself in shape better than any trainer could tell him, there is always the chance that he may be carried away by admiration for his own judgment. NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH Mr. Reuben Moore, of 912 Blank street, had a narrow escape from death Tuesday morning at his work. He was caught between an elevator, causing a deep cut under his chin. Dr. Reed was immediately summoned and several stitches had to be taken. Had it not been for the promptness of himself his head would have been severed from his body. He is doing nicely at this writing. FOR SALE. 808 Georgia street, 4-room cottage, cistern water. 923 Jackson street, 4-room cottage, cistern water, cement walk.

Murrell, the directress of the musical department has set a high mark for the musical numbers and with untiring energy and patient instruction, she has shown the capability of Pearl High pupils to sing almost any piece of music.

We were glad to welcome as a visitor Miss Sadie Binford, of Birmingham, Ala., who for the past school session was instructor of Latin and Greek in Sedalia, Mo. We were honored this week by a visit of Father Coombs, of this city, and his guest, Hon. J. T. Settle, of Memphis. In introducing Hon. Settle Father Coombs said that Pearl High was considered by the good people of Nashville as a pearl of great price, the teachers also as pearls of perfect purity, who were attempting in turn to make pearls of all the pupils who should come within their reach. Hon. Settles said in part: "You are soon to take the places of our present leaders. Remember that education does not depend altogether on what we get out of text-books. Develop the mind as completely and as extensively as opportunity will permit, at the same time educate the hands. Mechanical and industrial education appeals to this age.

Character must be developed all the days of your school life. Do not understand me to underestimate higher education. Ours boys must be as completely educated as any other boy of our composite nationality. Not all schools can develop orators like Frederick Douglass, nor a soldier like Toussaint L'Overture, nor a singer like Patti; but each of us can improve over our present status by persistent effort." UNITED IN WEDLOCK. A marriage of interest to many friends was that of Miss Lucy Berry and Dr. J. Q. Adams Monday evening, at 8 o'clock at the home of her brother, Mr. A. B. Berry, 1913 Jefferson street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. H. Burns, in the presence of a small company of friends. The house was beautifully decorate with honey-suckle, white carnations and roses. The bride was very attractive in a white embroidered gown trimmed in Irish baby lace finished with touches of blue. She wore a beautiful veil caught up with a wreath of white forget-me-nots. Her flowers were white carnations and maidenhair ferns tied with white satin ribbon. After an elegant ice-course was served Dr. and Mrs. Adams returned to to their room, 1714 Patterson street, where they will receive their friends until May 25, when Mrs. Adams will pay her mother a month's visit in Birmingham, Ala. From there they will return to the groom's home in Rat eigh, N. C. --- --- $10 CHOSE Garnet, Navy. While they last Only 25c HOES Rus- un-Metals, widths ---- $2.50 BROS. RCH ST.
