NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16. 1910 REV. E. C. MORRIS, D. D., President of the National Baptist Convention of America. RUTHERFORD COUNTY COLORED FAIR. Special to the Globe. Murfreesboro, Tenn., Sept. 14—The seventh annual exhibition of the Rutherford County Colored Fair will be celebrated on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of this month. The fair will be held on the beautiful fair grounds near the city, which are considered among the best in the state. Many attractions have been secured by the management for the entertainment of the guests and those who attend are assured that they will enjoy themselves as never before. Rutherford County boasts of her Negro citizens. They own and operate splendid farms, and in the town of Murfreesboro they conduct many of the leading stores in which can be purchased everything needed in the home. Only recently Dr. J. W. Whitfield, who had for many years conducted the leading store in M. Pleasant, Tenn made a visit to Murfreesboro and he was so well pleased with the conditions and thrift and fidelity of the Negroes that he lost no time, deciding that he would close out his big store in M. Pleasant and move to Murfreesboro. The people of this thriving town threw open their doors to Dr. Whitfield and gave him a warm welcome to their midst. With this spirit existing, it is safe to say that the people will have a fair that will be a credit to the county and the state. The officers of the Association are Alf. Ramsey, President; Will Henderson, Vice President; J. C. Blake Secretary; R. T. Butler, Assistant Secretary; Dr. J. P. Hickman, Treasurer; Hv. Vaughan, John Bright, Superintendents; M. P. Scales, Wm.

BOYD MAKES HIS PEPORT—VOLUME OF BUSINESS OVER $177,000— HANDSOME INCREASE IN BUSINESS FOR FISCAL YEAR. Special to The Globe: New Orleans, La., September 14. After being absent from this city for more than a quarter of a century, during which time it has been held in various parts of the United States the National Baptist Convention comes to the Pelican state again. It will be remembered by the older ones that it has not met in New Orleans since 1885. This was a profitable session as it was almost at the beginning of the consolidation of the three different Baptist Conventions which were claiming National recognition, this consolidation made really the first national body of Negro Bapists in the United States. Some few of the men who met the convention here in this city then are in attendance at this session and can testify to MORRIS, D. D., Baptist Convention of America. At 9:30 this morning the official program for the opening of the thirtieth annual session of the National Baptist Convention of America and the eleventh annual session of the Woman's Auxiliary of the same body began. The devotion preceding the opening of the session was conducted by Revs. J. Milton Waldron, Washington, D. C., and R. H. Pittman, D. D., of Arcadia, Fla. The convention was called to order promptly by Rev. E. C. Morris, D. D., Helena, Ark., who has been its president for sixteen out of its thirty years existence. REV. R. H. BOYD, D.

STATE FAIR STATE FAIR WILL BE A BIG AFFAIR THIS YEAR. Negroes of Tennessee Are Awakened. INTEREST MANIFESTED IN EVERY PART OF THE STATE FARMERS WILL LEAD IN THE WAY OF EXHIBITS FINE STOCK WILL BE HERE IN ABUNDANCE MERCHANTS COMING IN GREAT NUMBERS-POULTRY TO PLAY IMPORTANT PART—SOME FINE BIRDS WILL BE SEEN—GOOD MUSIC—NEW GRAND STAND—CARS RUN TO PARK GATE. The third annual exhibit of the Tennessee Colored State Fair promises to eclipse everything yet undertaken by the Negroes of Tennessee, both in magnitude and beauty. The people from Bristol to Memphis are stirred as they have never been before and the interest manifested in the coming fair is almost beyond human conception. The farmer, the merchant, the banker, the artist, the professional man, the scientist, in fact men and women in all walks of life are determined that the world shall know what the old Volunteer State has done and is doing toward contributing her part to the progress of the world and the uplift of humanity. The farmers, despite the unfavorable weather that made it so difficult for them to attend to their crops in the spring and early summer, have many fine exhibits to bring to the State Fair this year. The variety consists of everything raised on the farm, vegetation, live stock, poultry, hay, corn and other products. The forest and the mine have not been neglected and specimens of what has been produced along that line will also be exhibited. The Negroes of Tennessee own some of the finest live stock in the country, and it is surprising that of the many fine mules, horses, cows, hogs, sheep and goats they can trot out and say. "This is my own." They can tell all about each one's pedigree and just how the finest specimen was produced. The Negro is a natural farmer and always delights to excel in that line. The fair this year will be freely patronized by the farmers. The Negro merchants, like the farmers, are making great preparations and will take advantage of this year's opportunity to show what he has accomplished. They are engaged in every line of business known to commerce and are surprised themselves when they bring the results of their labors together and begin to compare them with those of others. The largest stone quarrying company in the state belongs to a Negro, and he furnishes the finest stones to be had. He employs both white and black artists to fill his orders. Another feature that promises to be of special interest will be the poultry exhibit. Negroes have awakened to the profits in poultry and are making great strides to improve the output from their pens. They have learned that it does not cost any more to raise a thoroughbred than it does a common chicken. The poultry exhibit will be worth going miles to see. Good music will be a great attraction. The famous Magnolia Band has been secured and will give a concert every night. A matter that has given all a great deal of concern is the loss of the grand stand by fire, but this need no longer give any concern. The fair management has been on the alert, and has succeeded in securing the seats of a big show that will winter here, and will have seating capacity for several thousand; so the people can rest assured that they will be ac (Continued on Page 2.)

On September 4th a jolly set of girls surprised Miss Roberta Walker at her home on Jo Johnson avenue. It was a complete surprise to her and it was enjoyed by all. The progressive whist party afforded a great deal of pleasure to all who participated. Miss Maggie Erwin won the first prize, which was a beautiful book of Shapespeare's works, while Miss Elma DuPont won the other prize. Ices and cakes were passed around while the girls chatted together, all anxious to be near the Maid of Honor, since she was to depart soon for Virginia, where she is to attend school this winter with Miss Catherine Allen.

BOOKER WASHINGTON ARTICLES TO APPEAR SOON. The publishers of The World's Work, New York City, announce the beginning of a series of articles to begin in the October number of that magazine, entitled "My Experiences with Men and Things," by Booker T. Washington, of the Tuskegee Institute. The articles will extend through eight to twelve issues of that valued publication. Dr. Washington is also to prepare a series of articles for The Outlook, of New York City, to begin soon after his return from Europe. These articles are to be entitled "The Man Farthest down," and will be read, of course, by an unusually large circle of readers. Dr. Washington's article in The American Magazine relating some of Bert William's experiences has been very widely read. MAKE GOOD Mr. J. L. Leach has just passed the Tennessee State Board of Embalming. Mr. Leach finished his course of embalming at the Clark's College with the highest mark of the class. Y. M. L. C. NOTES The club met at the residence of Mr. Jordan Stockard which was the reconvening of its session. All members returned, after having spent a delightful vacation, with bright hopes that seem to illumine our future that bids well for a successful club year. Among our visitors was Mr. Ira B. Scott, an ex-member of this club, and proud he ought to be. Mr. Scott has spent about a couple of years in Ohio, where he has connected himself with a like club and has won many friends and great distinction. Among the many greetings from our members was the one that came from Mr. Scott, his subject being, "Be a Man and Have Friends." This will long be remembered. Then we had our election of president, vice-president, secretary, assistant secretary, treasurer and librarian, respectively. It has been an idea of ours that we have an uninterested person to preside over our election, and upon an invitation from the president Mr. Scott kindly consented to officiate, which was successfully done. The officers elected for the ensuing year are as follows: president. E. Lee Kinzer; vice-president. J. L. Leach; secretary. H. Jordan Stockard; assistant secretary. Mansfield Douglass; treasurer. E. P. Bord: librarian. J. E. Johnson. The club will entertain next Friday night, September 16, at the home of Mr. Galloway, 1610 State street, in honor of Mr. Scott. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. Kinzer, 29 North Hill street. An enjoyable menu was served by Mrs. Stockard. G. W. HUBBARD HOSPITAL CLUB AN APPEAL The Tuesday afternoon meeting was unusually interesting. Mrs. J. H. Hale was present to resume her duties as secretary of the club, and as usual was enthusiastic with plans for the hospital. Mrs. T. H. Elliott has done the work as secretary most accently while Mrs. Hale was out of the city. The club members learned with regret that Mrs. W. F. Waters contem- plates leaving for another city. Mrs Waters is one of the most efficient members of the club. Most of the members have returned from their summer trips and now the club is well enthused for the work of furnishing the hospital. One wing of the hospital will be completed October, and the George W. Hubbard Hospital Club which is an auxiliary to the Geo. W. Hubbard Hospital Association, has pledged itself to furnish the wing. The club asks the assistance of everyone. Anything given will be gladly received, such as sheets, pillow cases, towels, wash rags, blankets, spreads, beds, washstands, chairs, etc. The ladies will call on you and it is expected that they will be gladly received. The first linen shower for the club will be given Friday evening. September 23, at the Burrus Hall, 315 Cedar street, Mrs. P. R. Burrus, manager. All are invited to come and bring any article mentioned above. Due credit will be given to everyone. If at any time one chooses to make a donation to the hospital through this club by phone, call Main 1384, Mrs. F. A. Stewart. She will be pleased to give you any information and receive your gift in the name of the club. This hospital will be a great blessing to the entire community, and especially the colored people of Nashville. The recent report of the health officer of the city shows the death rate of the colored people to be notably high. The unfortunate poverty of a large part of our race, coupled with improper sanitary conditions, and a lack of knowledge of the laws of health, greatly influence the health and progress of the city as a whole. Such a hospital as this one will be a great helper in ridding our beautiful city of deadly diseases. By caring for its afflicted and disseminating healthful knowledge, the mortality of our city will be greatly reduced, the lives of both races prolonged, their health and happiness augmented, and business enterprises and useful citizens of other sections attracted to Nashville. The work of the hospital has been going on all the summer, and up to this time they have not asked anything from the citizens of Nashville. They need $5,000 to complete and furnish this building. They are starting a campaign in the city to raise this amount. A representative will call on you in a few days, or if you prefer telephone Main 1384 and make a donation, or send check to the treasurer. Mrs. F. A. Stewart. MAKES REPORT STATE FAIR. (Continued from Page 1.) commodated to seats as good as could be desired. This will enable all to get a clear view of all the maneuvers at the special exhibitions. The much-mooted question of transportation is another feature that has been taken care of. It is well known to the people of Nashville and vicinity that the contract had been let for the extension of the car line to Greenwood Park gate, but it is not generally known that long before the fair opens the cars will be running up to the park gate. This will be good news to all, for the changing from car to wagons and from wagons to cars made it very unpleasant to go to the park at any time, but this will be a thing of the past when the fair opens. The cry everywhere now is a bigger and better fair for 1910. NON-RESIDENT NOTICE November 1910. Mary Brown vs. Jas. Adolph Brown.

Tuesday of this week Dr. J. W. Whitfield, formerly of Mt. Pleasant, Tenn., but now of Murfreesboro, came into the Globe office and at first glance was noticed the absence of that pleasant countenance which the doctor asually carries with him. After a formal greeting Dr. Whit- field made it known why he could not feel and look as pleasant as is his custom. He stated that a former correspondent of the Globe had told him that the editor had refused to publish a news item sent in with the Murfreesboro news which told of ‘Dr. Whitfield’s change of residence. To say we were surprised to learn that such a statement had been made about the Globe by any one would be putting it in its mildest form. Dr, Whitfield’s citizenship would be a credit to any community, and how any one could conceive that we would refuse to publish an article about him is beyond our comprehension, ‘The mission of the Globe is to pub- lish the heWs, and our policy has been to magnify the good we are ac- complishing as a race. To this end we have striven nearly five years, and this is the first time we have been accused of being so narrow an¢ so niggardly as to publish part of the news from a town and cut out a personal mention of a respectable and prosperous business man in that com munity, We endeavored to make it plain to Dr. Whitfield that it was impossible for such a thing to have occurred, and while we do not believe the correspondent meant to do eithe a wrong to us or the gentleman in question, yet in justice to ourselves. we must say that the conclusion wag absolutely false. Be Not Dismayed. When the daily press heralded tc the country on fast Sunday morning that Governor Malcolm R. Patterson had withdrawn from the race to suc- ceed himself the Negroes of the state were dumb, and when approached or the subject they discussed it with be- wilderment. True, sensations have come thick and fast in the political storm that bas hovered over Tennes- see for the last few months and the retirement from the firing line of Gov- ernor Patterson was the last thing to be anticipated, but as the hours and days have passed events have tended to reconcile us to the situation.

President B.C, Morris, in his an- nual address sys: “It is not an easy matter for the Negro of to-day to un- derstand why he should be abused, derided and in many instances mal- treated, and taking a view from the outside of his own case, he is forced to ask like Pilate, ‘What evil has he done?’” and after citing how the Ne- gro has struggled to build up this community; and how he has been sat- isfied with meagre pay for his labor; and how out of his pittance he has managed to spare enough to build churhces, school houses and other re ligious institutions; and at the same time buy homes and feed his fam- liy, he asks, “How could the Negrc aelp crying out, ‘Why crucify thou me?" President Morris strikes a chord that millions of Negroes can sing, and they are silently asking that ‘one question from. ocean to ocean. ‘The men and women who are gath- ered in the great city by the gulf are representatives of the people, and they should keep themselves in an attitude to feel the weight of the re sponsibility resting upon them. They will have questions to settle that af fect millions of people. We hope they may let the Spirit of Justice and Truth guide them in every act.

Soberness has been relegated in everything. The man who can stir the. people to a frenzy every day in the week is the man who will grow in the popular favor. It is 80 in politics, and it is so in business, No one in our country understands the American people better than Mr. Roosevelt, and as much as the ma- Jority of the sober-minded men would prefer some other man for president, Teddy stands there like Banquo's ghost and says, “You must elect me next time, I am the man of the hour.’ And it is up to the Supreme Court of the United States to decide what makes a Negro, But the Court's de- cision will not help the street car conductors in Nashville, they have to decide on sight, The Dallas Express thinks all Ne- gro meetings, religious and otherwise, are conducted in a nonsensical way.

The time is ripe for a change of heart in this matter. Let the Ne- groes get together on lines of social, economic and political importance and much of oppesition now sta’king abroad will vanish—The Savannah Outlook, Savannah, Ga. eee Roscoe Simnmions at the Helm. Those who read the editorials in the National Review before its un- timely end, and, at earlier period, editorials and special articles, signed Roscoe C. Simmons, in The Advocate will notice such a close similarity in style and diction between these and the editorial writings now appearing in New York Age as to be justified in the belief that Simmons, if not editor in name, is editor in fact of the race’s leading newspaper. The evidence is all internal, to be found within the writings them- selves, but it is there in large quan- tities that a new pilot is guiding the destiny of The Age, a pilot who has a better knowledge of the rocks and shoal of southern politics than his predecessor, a knowledge po-sessed only by those who have studied the subject on the grounds. And this knowledge is expressed in words and phrases peculiar to but one man in the Negro newspaper fraternity, Ros- coe Conkling Murray Simmons. Mr. Simmons, we are so sure of the correctness of our discovery that we state it as a fact—has entered into his work with the thoroughness of the veteran that ne Is, and those who have been longing for the day when The Age would return to the fearless tone of its palmy days under Tom Fortune may now rest assured that the fur will fly whenever the necessity requires—The Advocate, Charleston, W.

THE NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1910 Telephone Connections. NEGRO DESERTERS IN ROLE OF SAFE BLOWERS. Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. 15.—Privates John Lumpkin and L. Bates, Negro deserters from Troop M, Ninth Calvary, were arrested here to-day, charged with having robbed the army safe at Pole Mountain maneuvers' camp, August 9. of $6,500. All but a few dollars were recovered. The two men were seen last night by E. M. Sandy, a Dale Creek storekeeper, to go in an autofobile to a place where the safe was hidden in the ground, and he followed them to the city and then notified officers. When Lumpkin was arrested $2,500 was found in his satchel. Chief of Police Smallley later found $3,600 in a sack in the rear of Bate's room. James Molle, a ranch hand, says the two Negroes forced him to drive them to a railroad station with the money, paving him $250 to keep silent. NASHVILLE CENSUS. Washington, Sept. 15.—Congressman Joseph S. Byrns was in Washington for a few hours to-day on a flying trip to see about the Nashville enumération. He obtained from Director Durand an assurance that Nashville's request for more area to be included in the count would be branted. Mr. Byrns left this evening for home, intending to stop a short while in Cincinnati to visit his brothers there. NEGRO BAPTISTS. (Continued from Page 1.) The address of President E. C. Morris, D. D., was a special feature of the evening. A packed house listened attentively to every word he said and from time to time broke forth with great applause. President Morris said in part: I wish to assure you that I am not asleep to these very great honors which you have repeatedly permitted me to wear as from time to time you have chosen me to fill the exalted position of president of this great convention composed, as it is, largely of the ablest and best men of our advancing race. We are particularly glad to be in this beautiful Crescent City, which has in and around it seventy Negro Baptist churches, with almost as many more distributed among the other denominations. We are glad also to be for a few days in the midst of such warm-hearted southern white people as we have been told live in this great city. Negro people are peculiarly proud of this city and state for the prominent part the latter played in forming the history of the race from the opening of the Civil War down to the present time. In that mighty struggle for the restoration of the Union, New Orleans and the state of Louisiana furnished twenty-nine infantry, one heavy artillery and one calvary regiment out of about one hundred and sixty-five regiments in all. Besides this most enviable record made during the Civil War, Louisiana is the only state in the Union that has ever had a man of cur race as its governor—even though he was only governor for a few hours. I beg to reevaluate what I have said on many occasions, that this question of the universal brotherhood of man does not in any way effect the social distinctions among the people, which distinctions will always be governed by the individual choice. But on this matter I am glad to say that my experience among my own people has taught me that the Negroes as much as any other people, are opposed to the social intermingling of the races. and would, if in their power, preserve the peculiar race identity bestowed by the All-Wise Creator. It is not an easy matter for the Negro of to-day to understand why he should be abused, derided and in many instances maltreated; and, taking a view from the outside of his own case, he is forced to ask like Pilate, "What evil has he done?" He has struggled along side by side with the white man of the South in the rehabilitation of this beautiful section of our great country which was laid waste by the Civil War. He has been perfectly satisfied with the little share that he has received of the marvelous prosperity that has come to this section of the country since the close of that War, and has gone forth and built up out of his scant earnings many churches and schools, together with other religious institutions. He is content to have his own people preach to him and teach in h's schools. He works willingly and uncommittingly for whatever wages his white brother may choose to pay him. He pays a fair proportion of the taxes for the support of the government. He is as loyal to the South and her varied interests as any people who dwell with in her sunny domains, and how could he help asking, "why crucify thou me?" The address was well received by the delegates and visitors, and many comments were heard on all sides. WOMEN HOLD SEPERATE MEETING. Special to the Globe; New Orleans, La., Sept. 14.—The Woman's Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention opened their eleventh annual session in the Austerlitz Baptist Church this evening, as the foreonum session of the convention proper was graced with their presence. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. S. Willie Layton, of Philadelphia. Pa., who called the session to order at 7:50 p. m. The devotion was conducted by Mesdames Mattie D. Griggsby, of Indiana, and M. A. Sharkle, of Texas. At eight o'clock the corresponding secretary, Miss N. H. Burroughs, presented the program for adoption. The following addresses of welcome were delivered: On behalf of Austerlitz Baptist Church, Mrs. Viola M. Gray; on behalf of local churches, Mrs. Susie O. Love; on behalf of industrial schools, Mrs. Frances Joseph Gaudett; on behalf of Woman's State Convention, Miss Philenee Joseph, Bell Alliance, La. Response to welcome address, Mrs. A. A. Bowie, Alabama. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. A. S. Jackson, D. D., Texas. The women's meeting is well attended, representatives from nearly every state in the Union being present. DR. BOYD'S REPORT New Orleans, La.—For more than two hours Rev. R. H. Boyd, the Secretary of two of the largest working boards of the National Baptist Convention, which is holding its thirtieth annual session here, stood before that magnificent assembly of distinguished divines and laymen and made his fourteenth annual Publishing Board report and fifteenth annual Home Mission Board report. These were listened to with utmost attention. The Home Mission Board report was the first to be made, and according to custom, Rev. J. P. Robinson, D. D., of Little Rock, Ark., who has served as chairman of that Board since Dr. Boyd has been its secretary, made the opening remarks. He was listened to attentively as he dealt with the fundamental principles of (Opp. Vanderbilt Building.) A TENT COLONY FOR COLORED PEOPLE OWNED and controlled by Colored People, for the benefit of colored people suffering from any form of TUBERCULOSIS, diseases of the Nose, Throat and Lungs.

COMMERCE STREET. all Communications to SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. home mission work, or "Work on Home Fields." Dr. Robinson, by his astute and natural bearing, is regarded as a powerful minister. He handled the subject "Work on Home Fields," with ease and precision. He has had the entire support of the individual members of the Board, and the plan of co-operation as has been in effect between the southern white Baptists and the Negro Baptists, showed that the religious work had spread and that the money given by the southern white Baptists had helped the Negroes as never before in the spread of the gospel. Dr. Boyd did not attempt to read all of his report when he came to the platform. He said the time had come when Negroes could read for themselves. "The best way," said he, "to show you have an up-to-date printing plant is to print your report and distribute it on the grounds so the thousands of delegates who attend might be able to read for themselves." The report snows an increase over the amount of money handled last year by about $15,000.00, which would have been more, said Dr. Boyd, but for the lack of medium through which to stimulate the holiday trade last fall. It shows a handling of $177,507.91. It also shows the installation of about $40,000 worth of new machinery which the times now demand for well regulated printing plans that would turn out good religious books. "The Board," says Dr. Boyd, plans greater extention, more work and expects to have greater returns in the ensuing fiscal year." Plans are already laid to that effect and will no doubt be carried out with all pos sible haste The circulation of the literature and periodicals for the aeyr ending August 31st showed an increase of nearly one million, while the letters received and answered for the year aggregate two hundred and seventy-two thousand, five hundred four. Secretary Boyd said that the expenses of the plant had also increased on account of the increase in the cost of material, cost of living and cost of labor. At the close he paid a splendid tribute to the individual work of the members of these two Boards who had worked interestingly with him for all of these years. Each state, and Territorial convention furnishes a member to these Boards. Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., of Nashville, Tenn., pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Chairman of the Publishing Board, one of the tallest and most commanding figures in all the body, who has served as chairman of the Publishing Board since its location in Nashville, opened the discussion for the Publishing Board. The wonderful control of his voice, the Saul-like height, made him easily an attractive figure while delivering his remarks on the difficulties that his Board has had to overcome to attain the success made in establishing its credit, or the confidence it enjoys in the commercial world as a religious business concern. The Field Secretary, Dr. Wm. Beckham, was called to the platform to make a few statements regarding the work on the field. He is regarded as the Talking Machine of the Convention, and has worn the name of Globetrotter, as most of his time is spent on the road.
