THE NASHVILLE GLOBE. TENNESSEE COLORED STATE FAIR, GREENWOOD PARK. SEPTEMBER 27TH TO OCTOBER 1ST VOL. V. CITY COUNCIL PASSES TWO VERY IMPORTANT BILLS. Bond Isues for Park and Negro Normal. BLACK BOTTOM TO BE WIPED OUT AND A BEAUTIFUL COMMON CREATED—OLD EYE-SORE TO GIVE PLACE TO THE CALL OF NATURE—BEDS OF CRIME AND VICE WILL BE ELIMINATED —$50,000 FOR NEGRO NORMAL SCHOOL—BOTH PROPOSITIONS WILL BE VOTED ON IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. That the city fathers of Nashville have decided on several gigantic plans by which the city is to be benefited in many different ways and by which Nashville will deserve the name of Greater Nashville, because of the certainty of bringing to pass and putting into execution these proposed plans that mean for each individual citizen a great good, became more evident and sounded more real last week when the City Council unanimously decided to recommend to the voters of Nashville for their approval, among other propositions, two that the Negroes are especially deeply interested in. One of these is the issuing of $500,000 worth of bonds, the money from the sale of these bonds to be used in reclaiming Black Bottom. The entire district is to be wiped out, erased from the map and transformed into a magnificent city park with broad walks, splendid driveways, evergreens, grassy plots, sparkling fountains and possibly numerous small playgrounds. Black Bottom takes in quite a number of blocks of desirable property and is almost in the heart of Nashville. It practically begins on the south side of Broadway and extends as far south as Peabody and west as far as Sixth avenue, South. Every building, whether business or residence will be demolished and torn away; the already beautiful streets will be made more beautiful and the citizens of South, North, East and West Nashville, can easily have access to this park day and night where bands will play during the season. The $500,000 would help Nashville in a hundred ways, but that way most interesting, and hoped for by the Negroes of the city, would be the eliminating of the criminal element, hatched and kept alive by the dives run by members of other races, and thus rid the race of a stigma that has clung to it, notwithstanding the efforts made to uplift the fallen. The entire project is looked upon by the taxpaying citizens as a Godsend and the people of Nashville will no doubt ratify it. The other proposition is for a $50,000 bond issue to aid the Negro children in acquiring an industrial education. The bonds are to be offered to the state in case they locate the Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes anywhere in Davidson County, which was voted by the legislature some time ago. This act, should it be endorsed, and Nashville can be celled upon to endorse such a good move, would be the greatest help that the city of Nashville has ever offered in the way of encouraging the Negro to become a working, useful citizen. Every Negro in the city is, no doubt, in favor of both propositions because they are interested in helping to make themselves that desirable class of law-abiding, industrial people that their white neighbors say they want to make of them. These two propositions, as offered by the Council, are to be voted upon in the coming election next November. That the Negroes are studying these special propositions and that they will heartily support them, seems most likely. Several Negro churches are already located on the NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1910. edge of this district, and it would at least remove from their doors the grog-shops and dens of vice which they have labored to drive away by religious influences; but it could not be accomplished without the assistance of legislation that would remove them, forever from that community. The white people of this county are also said to favor both of these because of the moral helpfulness it will bring to the city and the increase to the value of the South Nashville property. Even now, it is claimed, that the advance in property farther out in South Nashville is noticeable. THE HUBBARD HOSPITAL CLUB. Sunday morning, August 28, the Geo. W. Hubbard Hospital Club worshipped at the Christian Church, with Rev. Preston Taylor and his congregation. The entire service was given to the club. Dr. Geo. W. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry, spoke on the object of the Hospital and Dr. Josie E. Wells spoke on the object of the hospital club. The Rev. Preston Taylor spoke on the need of the hospital. He said that often when he enters the homes of some of our unfortunate people, he finds no means of ventilation save one door, and often the rooms are so dark and dingy in the day, it is necessary to make artificial light to find the object sought. Every body should give, he said, and be happy in the giving, for though there will be those who will never need the hospital for his individual care, yet it will be a pleasant thought in the future to pass that magnificent structure and know that he is helping some unfortunate The Rev. Taylor is a man of the people and for the people, and his congregation gave the entire collection to the club, and promises to furnish a room. All the club need do is to purchase the furniture and send bill to the Lea Avenue Christian Church. Great gratitude to Rev. Taylor and his followers. Who will follow in this worthy cause. We note that Mesdames Hadley and Reed have returned from visiting different points in the South and East. We hope to see them at our next meeting. The evening musical given by Mrs. Alonzo Napier proved a success both as to attendance and finance. It is remarkable to see how heartily the people are entering into the hospital movement. The Program was excellent, the audience intelligent and the whole feature was a treat. Since there is such a spirit on the part of every one to help in the interest of the club, there is no doubt but that in the near future the Hospital Club will be able to rejoice that it has wrought well. HON, J. P. RHINES RETURNS TO THE CITY. Hon. J. P. Rhines has returned from his vacation in the East looking fine and vigorous. He attended the National Negro Business League in New York, visited friends in New Jersey, also in Philadelphia and returned to Washington City, where he has two brothers and a son and there attended the National Medical Association. He states that both these meetings are conceded to be the best in the history of each organization. While in the East Attorney Rhines also took the opportunity to visit Baltimore, Alexandria, Va. and Mt. Vernon, Va., the home of George Washington. At Baltimore he stopped at the noted Goldfield Hotel owned by the late Joe Gans, former lightweight champion pugilist of the world, for which Mr. Gans paid $75,000 and is said to be the best hotel for the accommodation of Negroes in America. MRS. BALLENTYNE IN THE CITY. Mrs. Jennie D. Ballentyne, who has been teaching vocal and instrumental music in the Central Mississippi. College, Kosciusko, Miss., has returned home after a successful year's work. On leaving Kosciusko she visited Mrs. A. D. Hurt, who now resides in Memphis, Tenn., with her husband, Rev. A. D. Hurt. Rev. Hurt is making an excellent mark. Mrs. Ballentyne was the guest of her sister, Mrs. Sango, while in Muskogee. After spending one week in Fort Smith, Ark., the guest of Mrs. Maynie Stewart-Joshenberger, she left for St. Louis for a short stay with relatives. She was the honored guest at a number of social entertainments. Miss Lula Northern has returned home after a visit or several weeks to her aunt, Mrs. Sim Lawrence, of St. Louis, Mo. NEW POSITION NEW POSITION A PROBABILITY IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS Prospects Bright for Large Enrollment. PRINCIPALS AND TEACHERS EXPECT A RUSH FOR SEATS ON OPENING DAY—TEACHERS RETURN FROM SUMMER VACATIONS—PLANS WELL UNDERWAY FOR TERM OF 1910-11—POSITION OF SUPERVISOR CAUSING A LIVELY STIR—INSTRUCTOR IN WRITING, DRAWING AND MUSIC MAY BE REVIVED—CALL OF SUPERINTENDENT. Vacation, vacation, temptation, temptation, Vacation, temptation. That's what vacation means. To do just what we choose. Our time for fun to use; To always be at play, The long, long summer day; To know not what to do, To mope the long day through, To wish the day were cool, And even wish for school— That's what vacation means. This is the song that teachers and pupils were singing last June in anticipation of the joyous summer holidays. After a year of hard work, they were looking forward to a well-earned and much-needed rest. Vacation has come and gone. Soon teachers and pupils will be seen making thier way to their respective schools. Lord Bacon, the English philosopher, once said, "Knowledge is power." The streets will soon be lined with happy, anxious boys and girls on their way to the fountains of knowledge in search of some of that power. Already many of the teachers have returned from distant places, where they spent the summer. Miss Lillie Bright from the mountains of Colorado; Miss Sophie Overstreet from the blue grass region of Kentucky and Dr. J. P. Crawford from Chicago by the lake. Not many of the native Nashville teachers were able to leave the city this vacation, but next summer, when the new salary schedule goes into effect and they secure pay on a twelve months' bas, a large number plan to go North to study in the great summer schools of that section. Prof. J. J. Keyes, Superintendent of the City Schools, has spent much time in getting all the schools, both white and black, in shape for the opening. In minor matters, such as blackboard and stove repairing, walk-ways, fences and broken desks, he has given the colored schools the same attention as the white. Belleview School has been made to look like a new school. The entire building has been painted and papered throughout at a cost of several hundred dollars. The interior woodwork of the Carter and Lawrence Schools has also been brightened with a fresh coat of paint. The greatest thing, one that will be of incalculable benefit to the colored schools, remains yet to be done—the appointment of a colored Supervisor of the grammar schools. Since the expansion of the Nashville school system by taking in the district schools, the Superintendent's work has been so increased, that he cannot visit the colored schools more than once each term or twice in a school year. The appointment of a supervisor has become a necessity. The writer in talking with the Superintendent on the subject was informed that he would recommend a colored man for the place. The position is one of honor and responsibility, and will pay a good salary. Thus far gossip has associated the names of four men with the position, but it is not yet definitely known who will secure it. Prof. W. S. Thompson, Dr. J. P. Crawford, Prof. E. W. Benton and Prof. G. E. Washington have been mentioned in that connection. It is believed that the colored people will appreciate this proposed new position to the extent that they will decline to let it be abolished without protest, as they supinely did about the Supervisorship of Writing and Drawing a few years ago. There was really no need for the abolishment of that position, and a whole race made to suffer, because of an error in the judgment of one man. Had the colored leaders shown any interest in the matter it is prob- (Continued on Page 2.) DR. F. G. SMITH, Principal of Pearl High School, Nash- ville, Tenn. DR. F. G. SMITH, Principal of Pearl High School, Nash- ville, Tenn. Mrs. Ferguson Leaves the City. Mrs. Clara D. Ferguson left the city on the 28th and is now the guest of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. White, of Murfreesboro. From there she will go to Wartrace, Tenn., and there be the guest of her sister-in-law, Mrs. Oneal. After a stay of about seven days she will go to Shelbyville to be the guest of her father and mother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Ferguson, and from there she will continue her trip to other points in the South, making her stay out of the city about eight weeks. Mrs. Ferguson came to the city about two years ago a stranger. SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ABRAHAM BANQUETED. The Fear Not Club, a social auxiliary of the Sons and Daughters of Abraham, banqueted their Grand Officers in Boyd's Hall Monday evening. Covers were laid for forty people. After the menu, which was an enabate one, was partaken of, J. Thomas Turner, the toastmaster, rapped for order. The following responses were made: "The Sisterhood," Mrs. May Bell, "Board of Directors," Jacob Bright, "Advisory Board," Lafayette Moore, "Our Grand Officers," B. F. Thompson. "Our Juveniles," Mrs. J. Bright. "Supreme Mistress," T. Keller. "Good of the Order," Sam Bell. "United," John.Taylor. "Future of the Order," Mr. Hale. "Royal Council," Grant DeGraffenried. Solo, Mrs. Anna Clark. "Grand Master," W. W. Williams. UNION OUTING. St. Eli, Mt. Bethel and Belle Meade U. P. B. Churches and Sunday-Schools gave their union picnic Monday on their beautiful lot in East Nashville, which has been purchased for the erection of an Old Folks' Home. There was plenty of shade and water and good order was preserved throughout the day. There was also a large crowd in attendance and amusements of all kinds for the smaller children, such as racing, swinging, etc. There were a goodly number of Big Harpeth pastors present, among whom were Revs. Green Thompson, R. Estleman, S. Bryant, Harvey Butler and others. We had a grand time and a perfect success in every way. No. 35. JOHN BROWN HONORED BY THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS Park Dedicated to His Memory. ON BATTLEFIELD WHERE HE WITHSTOOD A LARGE FORCE OF MISSOURI GUERRILLAS—SMALL TOWN OF OSAWATOMIE OVERRUN—MOVEMENT FOR A STATUE IN THE HALL OF FAME—THE CHOSEN INSTRUMENT TO RIGHT A WRONG—DIED A MARTYR TO ITS FULFILLMENT. Osawatomie, Kans., August 30.—Not since that time fifty-four years ago, when John Brown's men withstood a large force of Missouri guerrillas in the woods at the edge of the town, has Osawatomie so excited. To-day the celebration of that anniversary began. The town stretched itself, and is holding thousands of visitors from all parts of the state. Perhaps twice to-day's crowd, or at least 25,000 persons are expected here tomorrow at the second day of the celebration, when Theodore Roosevelt will make the address dedicating to the state as a park the wooded hillside where the battle was fought. Praise for Brown. The battlefield, for half a century a peaceful pasture where cattle grazed, to-day was inundated and its turf trampled to the hardness of pavement by loyal Kansans who filled the maze of new pipe branches under the trees and heard the speakers tell of the state's glory and praise its first hero. So much enthusiasm for John Brown has been awakened that a movement for a statue of the Western abolitionist in the Hall of Fame at Washington was started by resolution at the morning session. "From boulevards o'erlooking both Nyanzas The statued bronze shall glitter in the sun With rugged lettering, 'John Brown of Kansas: He dared begin; he lost, but, losing, won." This was the last stanza of a poem, "John Brown," by Eugene Ware, read this morning at the celebration. The prophetic inscription probably will be placed on the base of the statue which it is now proposed shall "glitter" in the Hall of Fame. Precipitated War. It was here at Osawatomie where the incident that precipitated the civil war began. Brown, who had come out from the East, settled and built his cabin, organized his forces and began his fight. Summing up the career of John Brown, H. G. Waters, of Topeka, the orator of the day, said: "Measured by the little standards of men, he may have been insane, but in the avenging purposes of heaven, he was the chosen instrument to right a wrong. With the torch of liberty held in his implacable and unrelenting hand, he was God's own incendiary to purge the land with fire. John Brown sleeps shadowed by a great rock, at North Elba. His grave is a shrine. Misunderstood, reviled and despised, he lived a life apart from man, beyond their touch, possessed of one purpose, and died a martyr for its fulfillment." Act as Escort. Col. Roosevelt's train arrived at Osawatomie on the morning of the 30th at 9:30 over the Missouri Pacific from Pueblo. At the station he was met by troops E and H, Fifteenth Calvary, which had marched eighty-seven miles from Fort Riley to act as his escort. (Continued on Page 3.)

The opinion is freely expressed that the music, writing and drawing in the colored schools is not up to the high standard it was a few years ago. But it is believed that a little well-directed effort on the part of a few interested men of the race might get this position re-established. One of the Work brothers would dignify the place and do the work with perfect satisfaction to all. In another column of this issue can be found all the official meetings ordered by the Superintendent for the opening week of school. Principals and teachers will meet in their old places Monday morning, September 5th at 9 o'clock. At 3 p. m. of the same day, the Principals will meet the Superintendent for opening instructions. Grammar school pupils entitled to examination will meet their teachers at 9 a. m. Tuesday. New pupils will be examined and classified Wednesday at 3 p. m. All grammar school children and the Pearl High School pupils will assemble at their old buildings at 9 o'clock Thursday morning for organization, assignment of lessons and book lists. Colored teachers will meet Saturday morning at the Pearl High School at 11 a. m. While it cannot be definitely known until Thursday morning just what the enrollment for the first day will be, indications point to a larger number than ever before. The school census shows a large increase in the scholastic population and no doubt all the schools will be crowded. Dr. F. G. Smith, who has been at the head of the High School for fourteen years, is full of new plans that he wants to see mature and bring forth good fruit. One is his proposition that the teachers take some graduate of the High School, endorsed by the High School faculty, and send him through college at any one of the three colleges. The High School Alumni will aid in this work. Another is to make arrangement to launch a High School Magazine or journal, edited and managed by the High School pupils under his direction. He is also trying to get a new and extra teacher in the High School, as the number of pupils is now large enough to justify this addition. He earnestly requests all parents to send their children back to Pearl on the first day and all old pupils who have been out of school for some time, he wants them to return and make the number still larger, and thus increase the urgency for a new teacher. As President of the Colored Principals' Association, Dr Smith, has laid large plans for this year's work. The first thing to be undertaken will be an educational rally or campaign among the colored people at the various schools and churches in the city. The city will be divided into sections and each primal will be assigned to a certain section, to visit the churches, meet the people and address the Sunday schools. Mass-meetings will be held in various parts of the city and lectures given on educational matters. THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1910. The Normal meetings of teachers which have been managed by Prof. Smith for several years under appointment of the Superintendent promises to be unusually interesting and profitable this year. A complete pedagogical program has been made out for teachers of every grade and they will have to study books on teaching and school management and recite lessons to their leaders just like pupils. A fine course has been arranged, as a perusal of the texts to be used will show. For High School teachers instructed by Prof. Smith Seeley's "History of Education, which is a study of the educational systems of the world. For Grammar grades 6B to 8A taught by Prof. Batte, "The Recitations," by Hamilton. For Intermediate grades. 3B to 5 A, "Hughes Mistakes in Teaching," under the direction of Dr. J. I. Watson. The Primary grades, 1B to 2A, will study Hewit's Pedagogy, led by Prof. W. L. C. Moseley. These are but a part of the plans of one principal, which is only an index of what the others are doing. They are all bpsy planning for the success of their schools, and if they realize their expectations Nashville will receive an educational uplift that will be felt throughout the entire city. THE NEGRO BUILDING NOW BEADY... Word has just been received from Dr. H. M. Green, the President of the Colored Department of the Appalachian Exposition which is to be held at Knoxville, Tenn., beginning September 12th and closing October 12th, to the effect that the colored building, which is a magnificent structure conviently located on the exposition grounds, has just been completed and is now ready for the placing of exhibits. Parties who contemplate sending exhibits from the state should write to Dr. H. M. Green, 108 East Vine Avenue, Knoxville, Tenn., and ask for Exposition Tags so that they may ship their exhibits at once. It is expressly urged by Dr. Green that all goods to be placed on exhibition be sent to Knoxville to arrive not later than September 10th, as none will be accepted after this date, except by special agreement. Several firms in Nashville, such as A. N. Johnson, Undertaker, on Cedar Street; H. H. Kelder, the Shoe Manufacturer; Mrs. T. G. Ewing, Shirtmaker; each of the three schools, and other firms, are preparing their exhibits to be sent between the first and fifth of September. The special excursion rate of one cent per mile has caused a number of people to declare that they will take in this exposition. MISS SHAW COMING BACK. Miss Lula Annie Shaw, who was visiting in the city last month and who was the guest of Mrs. H. T. Kealing, of Eighteenth avenue, North, is now in Austin, Tex., but is coming back to Nashville, not, however, to remain permanently, but is passing through and has been induced to spend several days before leaving for Philadelphia where she is to take up her school work in the city schools of that city early in September. GIRL HAMMERS TORPEDO WITH AN AXE. Thought It Was a Dime Bank—Police Patrol Makes Record Run. While hammering with an ax upon a railroad torpedo, loaded with dynamite, which she thought to be a dime bank, Daisy Puryear, a twelve-year-old girl living at 402 Fifth avenue, South, had her left hand badly lacerated. The torpedo was heavily charged and the explosion caused some excitement in the neighborhood for a short time. Someone sent in a report to the police station that shooting had taken place, and the patrol wagon, with Driver Rainey at the helm, made a record-breaking run to the scene. The little girl's hand was treated by Dr. H. T. Noel, and it is thought that she will lose one or two other fingers as a result of her misfortune. The torpedo might well be taken for a small bank, being about the same size. It is used as a signal by the railroads, one or two being placed on the track to signal the engineer in case of an emergency. It was found in a vacant room next door to the girl's home, having been left there by the former occupants. The girl had a narrow escape with her life. J. C. NAPIER, OF NASHVILLE OP TISTIC Tells of National Negro Work Done by Business League, of Hartford, Special to the Globe. Hartford, Conn., August 25.—J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., who, with his wife and daughter, has been visiting his nephew, R. A. Lawson, of this city, in an interview by "The Courant" for a few minutes yesterday afternoon said he had been attending the Eleventh Annual Session of the National Negro Business League that was recently held in New York, and he is filled with enthusiasm for the work that the league has already done and is doing for the colored people in the South. Mr. Napier is the cashier of the One-Cent Savings Bank, of Nashville, an institution that has resources of over $62,000. This is one of four colored banks in Tennessee, all of which, according to Mr. Napier, have resulted from the activities of the Colored Men's League. This league, he said, has weaned the colored man from his hunger for office, and has made him feel that his future salvation and prosperity lie along lines of commercial activity. When the league was founded there were scarcely any commercial institutions in the South that were conducted by colored men. Now there are fifty-seven Negro banks, 2,000 drug stores and 10,000 stores of various kinds such as grocery, boot and shoe stores. It would astonish the average Northerner, said Mr. Napier, to see the way in which the Negro of the South is changing. All the many discriminations that have been made against him during the past few years have helped rather than hindered his advance, for the spirit to create for himself the conditions which he desires, to make the right to enjoy advantages that are denied him, has filled him with a determination to succeed that makes him accomplish great things. In speaking of the bank of which he is cashier, Mr. Napier said that the daily deposits ranged from $500 to $7,000. The bank business of the bank is conducted on a thoroughly sound banking business lines. No money is loaned without the best of securities. Although the bank is a penny savings bank, he said, it has made more $1,000 loans than it has received 1-cent deposits. CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

The last session of the Middleton Presbytery, which took place at Murfreesboro, convening with the Murfreesboro Mission at 11 o'clock a. m. August 18, 1910, was a complete success. We had just immerged from a severe and critical illness, but we ventured to go and we thought best to take good time and we were on the ground one day prior to the time of meeting. We found Brother Malone, the slated clerk, ready to meet the Presbytery in due form. This mission was very recently organized, but her advancement is marvellous. She has one advantage, however, which she seems to appreciate, the slated clerk of the Presbytery lives right there, a constant minister to their necessities. They do not have to depend upon monthly meetings. The delegates to the Presbytery expresses their high appreciation of the manner in which they were cared for, and we can never forget the generous hospi --- --- tality which we enjoyed with Brother Malone and his blessed companion. No delegate will ever forget this meeting. The little city, especially the leading citizens, both white and colored, seemed to be friendly in earnest and several of the prominent ministers of the place were present and took part in our services. The spirit of the Lord was very manifest. Of course this is not a report; that will be made by the clerk further on, but this will indicate the work in some degree and perhaps be some encouragement to him who is engaged in the work of enhancing the light of holy truth. The next meeting of the Presbytery will be held at Lebanon. I promised to preach at Murfreesboro the fourth Sunday in September. S. FRISTER. Moderator. Railway Employees' Protective Association Auxiliary. The Ladies Auxiliary to the Railway Employees' Protective Association was organized Monday evening, August 28, 1910, at 8 o'clock. It is composed of the mothers, wives, daughters and sisters of railway employees. The following officers were elected: Mrs. Roxie L. Poach, president; Mrs. Emma M. Granberry, vice-president; Mrs. Mary Work-Long, secretary; Mrs. Rosie Ridley, recording secretary; Mrs. Martha Wells-Brown, treasurer. All ladies who have relatives working for the railroad are cordially invited to join the auxiliary, even if their relatives are not members of the Railway Employees' Protective Association. The next meeting will be held Wednesday afternoon, September 7, at 3 o'clock, at their headquarters, Tenth avenue and Cedar Street. LEAVES FOR HER HOME IN JEXAS. After spending more than six weeks in Nashville as the guest of her sister-in-law, Mrs. L. D. Bumbrey, of 1806 Jefferson street, Miss Frankla Bumbrey left the city Wednesday morning for her home in San Antonio, Texas. She went by way of New Orleans, La., and Houston, Texas, reaching home this afternoon at 6 o'clock p. m. While in the city Miss Bumbrey was the recipient of much social attention, there being many parties, teas, dinners, hay rides and socials given in her honor. AN EXQDUS OF HENDLEYS. This week saw an exodus of the Hendleys from the city. Miss Willa Augusta went to Tuskegee, Ala; Miss Willa May to Many, La. Mr. Arthur Hendley to Tuskegee to resume his studies and Miss Addie is said to have accepted a position down in Mississippi, where she will teach this hall. MARRIAGES Wm. F. G.

South Pittsburg is situated on the Sequachee Valley branch of the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad, 123 miles from Nashville and 33 miles from Chattanooga. It is the largest town in the valley. It has unrivalled transportation facilities as both the Southern and N. C. and St. L. railroad enter its border. The Tennessee River touches the corporate limits. The Cumberland Mountain is in close proximity to the town, affording beautiful mountain scenery. The mountains are covered with majestic oaks, slender pines and beautiful cedar trees. Here the wild grapes and succulent muscadines grow in euxuriant profusion. Battle Creek, one mile North of the place, affords excellent sport for the disciples of Isaac Walton, while the nearby forests are filled with game for the hunter. This is an industrial region, abounding in coal, iron and limestone, making it an ideal place for furnaces, foundries and pipe shops. The Tennessee Coal and Iron Company have three furnaces when in operation furnish employment to 1500 mostly colored. The H. Wetter Store Works is said to be the largest of its kind in the South. It employs many colored laborers as helpers and cupa men. Blacklock Foundry employs a host of Negro molders in making hollow ware brake shoes, shoe lasts, mantels and grates. Haskew Lumber Company is a plant that employs colored men. It is a very large industry. Mr. Wm. Douglas is the engineer of the mill. Eagle Pencil Mill is another institution that gives work to many men of color. The Dixie Portland Cement Company, easily the largest in the United States, numbers among its employees over 500 colored men in their mills and about 300 in their quarries. Besides the above there are many smaller industries giving work to hundreds of colored men and boys. South Pittsburg is no place for the drone and idler, but rather one of the magnificent activity in all lines of endeavor. If work is what you are looking for you will find it here. Mr. Luther Cummings is one of the town's foremost Negro citizens. He holds a contract with the city authorities for the building and repairing of its streets and bridges. He also contracts with the iron industries to furnish them with fluxing for their cupolas. He owns splendid teams and a beautiful home. J. D. Martin, everybody knows "Dennis." He has large draying interest. He can move anything from the humble household effects of the indigent to the luxurious furnishings of the aristocrat. He has several teams of high-spirited horses. Mr. Martin owns valuable real estate. His home, near the passenger depot, is fitted with all conveniences. J. J. McElroy is a hustling business man, knowing how to save a dollar. He has amassed quite a competence. He owns good property right in the heart of the business district and enjoys a thriving trade. Robt. Elliot, a whole-souled, jolly, good fellow, conducts a cleaning and pressing emporium. Mr. Elliott counts his friends by the thousand. "Rob" is a thorough going man of business Irvine Robinson conducts a drayage business. He owns a nice home surrounded with many comforts. H. W. Buchanan has opened up a fine line of staple and fancy groceries on Cedar avenue, next the Odd Fellow Hall. "Ed" has a good patronage and seems to be doing nicely. He owns the building in which the business is conducted. Robt. Currington operates a drycleaning establishment and seemingly gives satisfaction to his many cus- THREE BANKS IN BIRMINGHAM. If Birmingham continues to exercise that business activity that it has shown for the past three or four years, especially among the Negroes, it will move up into first place as a Negro banking center. Several splendid moves have been made by the Pittsburg of the South, as it is commonly called, within the past two months. The opening of another Negro bank in Birmingham, which took place the first of the month, under the wise management of some of the best known business connections puts Birmingham almost in a class with Richmond. It is now the only city except the one in the state of Virginia that has more than two banks in operation. The institution is in operation and has stock subscribed and paid by the leading men of the city. The three banks are making headway as successful institutions. REV. ROBT. MITCHELL, D. D., IN TOWN. On Wednesday morning Rev. Robert Mitchell, D. D., of Bowling Green, Ky., the Auditor of the National Ban- tomers. He has a flourishing patronage. A. H. Booker is the advertising man of the valley, controlling a line of bill boards from Whiteside to Pikeville. He does all of the circus and commercial posting for the Southeastern Bill Posters Association. He is ably assister in his work by his son, Miller. Circulars and samples are distributed for Northern and Eastern firms. His work requires a man of such sagacity and foresight. C. H. Lightfoot is the veteran attachee of the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad, having with the company for nearly thirty years. He is a man of sterling honesty, having the respect of everybody in Sequachie Valley. Mr. Lightfoot owns his home, which is well situated and nicely furnished. He is a firm believer in education, sending his children to universities in order that they may get all that is in it. Among the many home owners we mention Bill Robinson, Louis Currington, Ed Wood, Wm. Jackson, Carroll Hawkins, Henry Martin, S. H. Henry, Morris Waggoner, Anderson Buchanan, James Hancock, Henry Fulcer, Sallie Lane, James Polk, John Lane, John Kendrick, Wm. Gilliam, Wm Hight, Sam Pope, Cass Hight. These homes are well built and speak well for the race. Among those owning farms are Campbell Harris, Carroll Hawkins, George Gaines. These farms are equipped with all the latest machinery for their successful operation. The town has three schools in and near it. The city school is conducted by Rev. Wm. High, a graduate of Atlanta University. It has a large enrollment. Prof. H. B. Douglas is principal of the county school and has been for years. He gives eminent satisfaction to patrons and pupils. Prof. Douglas is actively identified with all educational movements. He is also one of the pillars of the A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Josie Mayes Hawkins has charge of the school just immediately north of town. The enrollment is excellent, the discipline fine. Mrs. Hawkins is an educated woman of no mean ability, knowing exactly what to do in the school room. She is also well known in fraternal circles. The churches are the Mt. Bethlehem Baptist, pastored by Rev. W. M. Simmons. Brother Simmons is a hard tist Convention, began his annual work of auditing the books of the National Baptist Home Mission and the the National Baptist Publishing Boards of this city. Dr. Mitchell has come each year for the past ten or twelve years to pursue this work. When seen by a Globe representative Wednesday, he said that the first work each year had been that of the two boards of which Dr. Boyd is Secretary, and that he had an order then from Dr. Boyd to the chief bookkeeper, Mr. S. P. Harris, to turn over all books, records, etc., for his auditing. After finishing with these two boards he will audit the B. Y. P. U. Board under the secretaryship of Dr. E. W. D. Isaac. This finished, his labors will be completed so far as auditing is concerned, although, logically speaking, the Educational Board is located here, but its secretary is not in the city. Dr. Mitchell was only recently elected moderator of the General Association of Kentucky which is the same as the Baptist State Convention in this state. He is also pastor of the State Street Baptist Church, of Bowling Green, which is regarder as one of the best THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1910. [Name not visible] REV. WM. SIMMONS, Pastor Mt. Bethel Baptist Ch urch, South Pittsburg, Tenn. and conscientious worker for the Master. He enjoys the esteem and respect of all denominations. It can be safely said of him that no finger of derision can be pointed at any of his acts, private or public. Rev. F. C. Cobb is pastor of the First Baptist Church just north of town. Brother Cobb's an old landmark, having built the first church ever erected in the town. He has a large following. Rev. W. M. Hight is pastor of the M. E. Church. He is a young man of much promisle, having a brilliant future before him. W. H. Boddie is the A. M. E. shepherd. He is a powerful man in the pulpit. His congregation seems to like him greatly. Brother Boddie originally hailed from Mt. Pleasant. The A. M. E. Zion Church has a most excellent pastor, Rev. E. O. Cowan, learned and scholarly. His people adore him, lending every effort at their command to assist in the work of Christ. All the above churches have nice buildings. The fraternal world here is the Knights of Pythias, who own a fine two-story building of pressed brick and steel right in the heart of town; the G. U. O. of O. F. own a valuable hall at the corner of Cedar avenue and second street. The Masons, Sons and Daughters of Africa, United Brothers of Friendship and many others of lesser note. Dr. W. J. Astropp, a native Mississippi, is the Negro physician and surgeon graduate from Meharry Medical College at Nashville. He has a large and lucrative practice. His office on Cedar avenue is fitted with the latest surgical appliances. His library of medical works is very extensive. Dr. Astrapp is a deep thinker, a sound reasoner and an erudite Christian gentleman, enjoying the respect of the entire Sequach Valley. A dental surgeon would do a good practice in this town, as there are lots for a good, faithful practitioner, who can deliver the goods. Alexander Staples is the owner of real estate in the "Hamburg" neighborhood of the town. Mr. Staples has some very advantageous contracts with one of the leading plants. He is a man of unquestioned honesty. Henderson Lamberson is another of "Hamburg's" worthy property owners, having valuable holdings. His residence is nicely furnished. Mr. Lamberson is a staid and sturdy Christian gentleman, standing high in the community. His character is above reproach. Mr. Walter Gaines has just completed a most cozy cottage which adds much to the beauty of the section in which he lives. churches in the state being a splendid brick building. It was only recently seated with up-to-date opera chairs. LUCK SAYS CENSUS WORK IS CORRECT. Supervisor of the Census for this district, Harry A. Luck, knows nothing of the rumored movement to have a recount for Nashville. "The Government would not pay for such a recount," said Mr. Luck, "and anyone undertaking it would have to bear the expense. I know what has been done in Nashville and know that the work has been correct. The figures will not be given out yet, however." The Board of Trade does not know of any move to take the Federal census of Nashville. It is known that such an undertaking would entail considerable expense. It is recalled that the last census was retaken with the result that very little change in the total resulted. The general impression seems to be that the figures will show Nashville with something like 110,000.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 2, 1910. BOND ISSUES. In the November election the voters of this city will have several important matters to consider when they go to cast their votes. It is generally conceded that the election of a governor will overshadow every other interest on that day, but there are two things which every intelligent voter in Nashville will do well to give serious consideration, namely: the issuance of $50,000 in bonds for the erection of a normal college for the Negro youth of Tennessee and $500,000 for the purpose of converting Black Bottom into a park. The educating of the youth of any state or country is absolutely necessary, if that state or country would hold a place in the front ranks of civilization. No sane person will contend for a moment that a people can prosper part educated and part uneducated. Every individual has a mind, and that mind is going to keep active. The educated and trained mind will work to make the community better, while the uneducated mind is liable to work to make the community worse. The normal school is to be established for the purpose of making better citizens of the Negro youth of Tennessee, and it is believed that every voter in the city of Nashville will approve of the issuance of these bonds for that purpose. Black Bottom has been an eyesore to this city for many years, and the only hope of redemption is to wipe it out, and build where now stand numerous old, delapidated buildings, occupied by people who have no regard for themselves or respect for other people, a beautiful park. No taxpayer should feel that it is a burden to increase taxes for so grand an undertaking and in November every Negro voter should vote for these two propositions and prove to the world that they stand for all things that are for the good of all the people. BUSINESS AND POLITICS. A common expression heard everywhere is that politics and business should be kept separate. The claim is made that politics polute business, and that no business man can afford to mix up in politics; but every time some measure is about to be enacted the business men can be seen putting their heads right along beside those of the politicians and they get so chummy that you really cannot tell which THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1910. is the politician and which is the business man. So the question is, can business and politics be separated? The farmer is interested in what laws are going to be passed, because they regulate his business. The merchant is interested because of the same, and the banker is interested because the farmers and merchants are both coming to him from time to time for loans to carry on their business. The politician, therefore, knows that these fellows are interested in what he is thinking about, and he knows just when to call on them, and talk matters over, and incidentally the farmer, the merchants and the banker will volunteer to contribute a little mite to help on the good cause, on the theory that the workman is worthy of his pay. If there were no business what need would there be for politicians, for there must be a need for laws before any one will take the time to think about them. The politician is the regulator of business, and is therefore as much a part of the business of any country or state as any other feature of civilization. CITY SCHOOLS. On the twelfth of this month the streets of dear old Nashville will again be thronged with the army of little soldiers, tramping their way in school. The ball and bat, and the doll and doll bed will be put aside for the book and slate. It is always a great time and a serious one as well. No one knows what the army has in store for the future, and no one stops to ask the question, but all right thinking parents, of one accord, join in the declaration that the children must be educated. There are some, however, who fail to see the need of an education. These parents are to be pitied rather than censured. They love their children, but simply do not know what is best for them. They do lot comprehend the gravity of the situation. They fail to see that the boy or girl who cannot read and write and count is handicapped at every turn. And since they do not see the mistake they are making in keeping their children out of school, it is the duty of those who do see their mistake, and who do realize just how hard it is for an unlettered man or woman to earn a living, to take the time to show these parents the great mistake they are making. It will require both patience and time, but the reward will be double pay for the sacrifice. The battle-cry from now on should be, send your children to school and keep them there every day you possibly can. The people of Kansas have shown to the people of this nation how much they appreciated John Brown, the abolitionist hero. The effort to place his statute in the Hall of Fame in Washington should receive the unstinted approval of the Negro press. The New York Evening Journal in a recent issue turns the light on Col. Roosevelt's record toward the Negro. The Journal is faulty in its memory, but the facts cited are significant. Major Wills has secured a new mail service for Nashville. Our postmaster should be commended for his untiring efforts to give this city the very best mail service possible. The price of cotton is moving up at a lively gate. It may become necessary for all to wear hobble skirts in the near future. Next Monday is Labor Day. We will all, no doubt, be tired if we take in all of the amusements advertised. Lodge meetings being about all over, we will now turn our attention to pumpkins and 'possums. CHATTANOOGA NOTES. Rev. Collins of this city had charge of the services Sunday in the absence of the pastor, Rev. M. W. Moore. Little Miss Jennie J. Johnson, of Nashville, Tenn. is visiting her aunt and cousins on Carter street. The Saint James Baptist Church will give a picnic at Citico Grove, Monday, September 5. Mrs. M. Frierson and daughter, of 101 Carter street have returned from Nashville. EDITORIAL CDIPPINGS Colonel Roosevelt and the Colored Citizen. Colonel Roosevelt made his first formal political speech in the United States—on his return from Africa—before the "National Negro Business League" at Palm Garden, in New York City. Booker T. Washington told a thousand colored citizens, gathered in Palm Garden, that they should be proud that Colonel Roosevelt chose first to speak to the Negroes on his return, rather than to white men. The colored citizens who listened to Mr. Roosevelt applauded him politely and generously. Some enthusiasts suggested that he be nominated for a third Presidential term at once—without waiting. But these "nominators" were not a majority, and they did not appear to be among the most intelligent of the members of the Negro Business League." There were many colored men in the audience, men that have fought their way up against every conceivable form of handicap—beginning in childhood and continuing throughout life. Some of the colored business men listened to Mr. Roosevelt in silence—it is likely that they were men with fairly good memories. They remembered probably, and intelligent colored men generally should remember: First, that Mr. Roosevelt is the man who talks very often about deeds alone being important and words without deeds being unimportant. Second, colored citizens when they listen to Mr. Roosevelt, should bear in mind some of Mr. Roosevelt's deeds and some of his lack of deeds. For instance, it was Mr. Roosevelt who discharged and disgraced an entire regiment when a few men in the regiment were accused of crime. This regiment which Mr. Roosevelt discharged and disgraced—something that he did not do and would not have done to any regiment of white men—was a regiment made up entirely of Negro soldiers. In this regiment of Negro soldiers the great majority were men who had served their country honorably, risking their lives and doing their duty thoroughly. If these men had been white men, they would not have been disgraced, deprived of a living, and deprived of an honorable standing, more important than a living, because there were some unworthy men among them. But, because they were Negroes, and not for any other reason, one of Mr. Roosevelt's deeds was the petulant, angry and unjustifiable dismissal of this entire regiment. To make the really intelligent colored citizen forget this particular deed Mr. Roosevelt ought to need a good many words. Another of Mr. Roosevelt's deeds is his most unfriendly criticism of Negro soldiers in his public writings—a criticism indicative of a prejudice against the Negroes, which was undoubtedly reflected in his unjust and unprecedented treatment of an entire regiment, because they happened to be Negroes. One of the deeds which Mr. Roosevelt neglected conspicuously had to do with Negroes. Mr. Roosevelt neglected to mention the fact that it was a Negro regiment in Cuba that saved him and his men from destruction. It was a Negro regiment that really did the fighting down there, when the ornamental young gentlemen recruited by Colonel Roosevelt among the cotillion leaders, and other hunters of glory were asking to be sent home or wandering around aimlessly with good intentions—but getting nowhere. The men that saved the day there, the men that really did go up San Juan Hill, the men to whom Colonel Roosevelt owes the fact that he came back from San Juan as a hero, were Negro soldiers. Mr. Roosevelt wrote a great deal about Cuba, but he omitted a deed which would have reflected credit upon him, he omitted the giving of credit to the Negro soldiers for what they did there. But a good memory is better for the owner than good words. What the colored citizen has to fear most is strong prejudice against his color and unjust action based upon that prejudice. A man who, like Colonel Roosevelt, belittles the Negro in his public writings and dismisses an entire regiment because it happens to be made up entirely of Negroes, has in his record deeds that no collection of fine words will persuade the intelligent colored citizens to forget.—The New York Evening Journal, August 28, 1910. In visiting a number of our people and coming in contact with business men in various lines of work, the statement can often be heard, "I like to patronize enterprises of color," or "I will patronize it because it is col ored." The Negro has got to lay that argument aside in order to make his brother give him value received for his money. Fakes in all lines go through the country beating people out of their money in various ways, and these people are simply patronizing them because they are colored; and when some one calls on them that really mean to give them in return for what they pay, they score them with the argument that they have been burnt several times. Investigate thoroughly all enterprises before you invest and that will help to crush out some of the fakes through the country.—East Tennessee News. GRANT A SLEDGE-HAMMER, NOT A STRATEGIST. Goldwin Smith in his reminiscences in the September McClure's gives the following sketch of General Grant: "Grant was a silent, somewhat saturine man, very simple in his demeanor and habits. His quarters were a common tent, in which was a chest with his kit marked 'U. S. G., U. S. A.' He was said to dislike military, parade and even military music. He seems to have been less of a strategist than of a sledge-hammer of war, pounding his enemy by his blows, with little regard for the expenditure of life. He may be almost said to have professed the strategy of attrition. Of this the bloody battle of Cold Harbour, fought in a blind country, was a signal instance. Why the battles of the Wilderness were fought at all, when the plan apparently was to hold Lee in the North while Sherman pierced the Confederacy to the heart, was a question to which I never could get a clear answer from a soldier. But there can be no doubt as to the inestimable service which Grant by his iron resolution and inflexible tenacity did the cause. His great victory at Fort Donelson was the first light of hope in a darkness which seemed almost that of despair. He also rendered a great service by firmly taking the whole war into his own hands and out of those of the politicians whose meddling had done much mischief. A remark to the contrary in an article of the New York Sun on 'The Political Element in War-Power' was from the pen of the editor, not that of the writer His generosity, Grant showed by handing back to Sherman, when the attack on Vicksburg had succeeded, the protest which at the Council-of-War Sherman had put in against the attack. His chivalry was shown by his demeanor to Lee after the surrender at Appomattox, when he treated Lee at once as a friend and refused to receive his sword. His good feeling and his good sense together he showed by at once parolling the beat en army, providing for their wants and giving them back their horses' for the fall ploughing.' He nobly defined to enter Richmond as a conqueror." COMMUNICATION Musical Organization. Editor of the Nashville Globe: There has been a matter upon my mind for a long time and I have to get it off. Doing so through your paper is about the best way I know. So if you will indulge me for a short duration of time and allow me a small space I shall relieve myself of my burden. It has been a source of regret to me that we have no large or prominent educational organization in our city. Other cities have splendid literary societies connected with the churches which are well attended and supported, serving as a means of culture to any who may desire to avail themselves of the opportunities offered. But here in Nashville, the Athens of the South, we have nothing of the sort. In other cities also, there are large musical organizations, offering from time to time fine entertainments which are helpful to the people. Many people gain a good musical education by joining such societies and the public in general is much benefited by the attendance upon this concert where standard musical compositions are rendered. In Nashville, however, there is no such organization. It is true that the colleges among us are doing a grand work alng this line but their work is too limited. It cannot reach the many and neither can it be said to be a possession of our city. There are 40,000 Negroes and a very, very small part ever feel the influence of this phase of the college work. An organization, the possession of the city of Nashville is a real need. I have visited several churches recently hearing the choirs sing, and while I cannot conscientiously risk many praiseworthy words about the work of these choirs, I can unreservedly state that there are fine voices in every one I have heard, and if some more really hard and earnest work were done, almost any church in Nashville could possess a fine choir. I can state further, that it is my conviction that, after hearing about 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:¹ "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.

NASHVILLE. - TENN. the finest and best choruses in this country, both white and black, here in our city, we have the material for a choral society of about 200 members, which would equal, if not surpass any organization of its kind in the United States. It would doubtless be popular and a source of pride to all the people in Nashville, but Nashville is a musical city and a very large part of its population would certainly support it. I truly believe that we are not living up to our opportunities along this line, and I think it is time to start such a musical. Would like to hear from others upon the subject. I-N-TEREST. J. W. WORK THE INSURGENT ELEMENT OF TO-DAY. Amos Pinchot in his article on "Two Revolts Against Oligarchy" in the September McClure's says of the present administration: "No party ever began an administration with clearer principles and a greater public service to perform than the party of Taft. The whole country, Democrats and Republicans alike, were impatient to help some one to drive the trusts out of politics. No party since 1860 has had such an opportunity to combine service to the party with service to the country. No party in our political history has so completely failed to justify the home of the people. "Restoration of government by the majority, reduction of tariff, and a vigorous prosecution of the conservation program of the last administration were three things demanded by the country. If after the election, the Regular party leaders had kept faith, if they had shown that they considered driving the trusts out of politics, tariff reduction, and conservation something more than mere catchwords of campaign oratory, there would have been no divided party today. If they had evinced a real purpose to reduce the tariff in spite of the special interests in the East and to save the people's domain in spite of the special interests in the West, and if they had made a real effort to drive the trusts and railroads out of politics both in the East and the West, there never would have arisen an insurgent element to vex the Republican reactionaries, just as the insurgent element fifty years ago vexed the reactionary Whigs." THE DOUBLE MEANING OF HIGH PRICES. In his article in the September McClure's on "The Increasing Cost of Living," Henry Smith Williams says of the present high prices: "As a purchaser you will be irritated—perhaps out-and-out angered—when you find that your gold piece is so little thought of that it will buy only three pecks of wheat, or four pounds of steak, or three pounds of butter, or three dozen eggs. But if, on the other hand, you chance to be a producer of wheat and meat and butter and eggs, you will view the matter more complacently, so far, at least, as these commodities are concerned. And, extending the application, whatever the thing you have to sell, be it commodity or skill or knowledge, you will probably not be displeased to reflect that it now represents the equivalent of more money than it did a few years ago. In other words, the high prices that seem so annoying when you wish to buy something from your neighbor are far from annoying when applied to the thing you have to sell. You dislike exceedingly to pay 25 cents a pound for meat; but you are not displeased at being expected to charge $3, let us say, as your professional fee for a service to the butcher that you formerly rendered for $2. "It certainly does make a difference whose ox is gored!" MILADI'S HOTE BOOK, W. E. P. Outing. The W. E, P.

CLARK PREACHES TO THE FAMILIES OF NASHVILLE. Last Sunday at St. Paul A, M. EB Church a very large proportion of the families of the city was assemblec to hear a family sermon which wa: preached by Rev. Dr. ©. H. Clark pastor of Mount Olive Baptist Church. The service was conducted under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Association, ‘The young men plan these public meetings from time to time to show to the public what the aim of the Association is and the help it will afford to the young men of the present generation ‘as well as generations unborn. | ‘The people began to arrive before the hour of opening and when the Program was begun the spacious au- ditorium was almost filled. ~The choir was joined by the congre gation in the singing, Mr. S. F. Williams, chairman of the meeting, was introduced by Dr Brooks and made some very inspiring remarks concerning the Y. M. C. A movement in Nashville. Mr. Wil liams spoke of the value of work for God which was done at a sacrifice ant also spoke of the many favors and valuable services rendered the Association by the leading men of the city, and how that they never re fused, After musical selection, Dr. Brooks introduced the speaker of the occa: sion in very glowing terms, pointing out the things that made him promi nent and calling attention to the fact that Dr. Clark was recognized as a leader throughout the state and coun: try. Dr. Clark spoke one nour, and dur ing this time his audience enjoyed his wholesome sermon, He said: “The influence of Christianity on fam ily life should ‘be exerted to destroy false pride. Christ admires any young man that wants to see Jesus ‘and show him to some one else.” Dr. Clark called attention to the false notion of Christianity. Some parents hold their children from hearing religious worship because they have not as nice clothing as the other child. “God ordered that the children should bring the wood, the father make fire and mother knead the dough, but the thing is changed now, the husband lies in bed until the wife does all, and then arises fretted if the meal is late. The mother of Jesus exemplified family circles, Je- sus dignified family life, when dying on ithe cross he called his disciple's ‘attention to his mother, saying, ‘Be- hold the woman,’ and left her in charge of his brother.” . eau MRS. ANN LOFTON. Mrs, Ann Lofton died August 21st at her residence, 914 Shankland Street, after an illness of a few Months. She became stricken with paralysis, an affliction trom which one can be but mildly relieved, yet every- thing that could be done was done; for at ail times she was lifted, turned and soothed with the tenderest care by her loved ones. At no time could she be found that either Georgia or Lessie were not at her side, She was quiet and unassuming in her manner, ye a devout adherent to the teachings she thought to be right to the faith ‘once delivered. She held on till the angels came to bear her to her rest- ing place. All during her illness she told her friends of her nome beyond “not made with hands,” where they would find her when she left this world, Singing clearly, one afternoon, “T ‘know T have another building, | know not made with hands,” she said, “Now if I should go without saying a word, you children will know where to find me.” She leaves to mourn her absence, John, her soul’s heaviness, Houston, Jack, Lessie and Georgia, as sons and daughters, besides grand’ children and a host of friends, FRANKLIN NOTES.

The stars go down To rise upon some fairer shore; And bright in heaven's jeweled crown They shine for evermore. "There is no death. The leaves may fall, The flowers may fade and pass away; They only wait through wintry hours The coming of the May." In accordance with the divine plan, the blessed spirit of Miss Kate Lyon 1910, broke loose from its earthly at 8:30 o'clock p. m., August 20th moorings and took its flight to the God who gave it. A long and useful life was given to her and she used it in the service of the Master. Scarcely had the smoke of battle cleared from the hilltops and valleys of our fair Southland when Miss Lyon joined that noble band of volunteers who left their home, their relatives and friends and came into this section, among strangers to serve a helpless, ignorant and despised people. In the spirit of her Master, she gave her life unreservedly in interest of those who most neede it. She realized and practiced that it is more blessed to give than to receive. The public schools of this city, Central Tennessee College, and especially Meharry Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Colleges, have all felt the purity and inspiration of her beautiful and consecrated life. Many of the homes of this and other cities have been and are being blessed by her examples of patience, forbearance and love which she instilled into the hearts and lives of the hundreds of young men and women who came under her benign influence. The toil, the pains, the sufferings and dis appointments of this life to her are in the past. She was truly a soldier for Christ who was called to do service in the thickest of the conflict. Her battles are fought and victories won Resolved, That we, the Alumni of Walden University and friends, think of her to-day as rejoicing with the redeemed who have fought a good fight, kept the faith, and are now in bright mansions above at home for rest. Resolved, That the cause of education has lost a worthy exponent, the public schools of Nashville a consecrated pioneer Christian teacher, Walden University former pupils, especially Meharry, a potent, quiet, earnest, devoted worker who in the spirit of her Savion freely gave her life in service for others. Resolved, That we strive to emulate her beautiful Christian life so that when our summons shall come we like her shall be ready to enter into that rest which remains for those who serve their creator by serving those about us. Resolved, That we here express our sympathy with the family and commend them to the care of Him who alope can save. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of the Association and a copy sent the family. J. A. LESTER. J. B. SINGLETON. P. R. BURRUS. G. H. BANDY. LENA T. JACKSON.
