NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. NEGROPYTHIANS ENJOINED BY JUDGE OF CHANGERY COURT Use Of Name Forbidden I This State. ALSO ORDERED NOT TO USE BADGES, BUTTONS, INSIGNIA, COSTUMES OR OTHER FEATURES—CASE AS REPORTED IN NASHVILLE BANNER—NEGROES NOT DAUNTED—WILL APPEAL CASE TO STATE SUPREME COURT—ORDER HAS ALWAYS BEEN CONDUCTED ON HIGH PLANE. If the Supreme Court affirm the decision of Chancellor Allison, as announced this morning, there will be no such thing in Tennessee as the Knights of Pythias for colored people, or as they have termed themselves, Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. The brief, yet comprehensive, decision of the Chancellor handed down this morning is as follows: "Supreme Lodge Knights of Pythias et al. vs. Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias et al.—On merits. "Under the Acts of Congress, the charters, the pleadings—and all of the facts—involved, and the authorities bearing upon the subject matter of the controversy here, the court holds that defendant organization is not entitled to use the name, 'Knights of Pythias', and that it is not entitled to use 'regalia' badges, etc., which are 'identical' or very similar to those used by complainant's organization. "On the whole record, and the authorities bearing upon the question involved, the court holds that complainants are entitled to the injunction prayed for—not alone because of the race and color of the members of defendant organization, but on other grounds also appearing to the court in the record. "Decree accordingly. "ALLISON, Chancellor." BILL FILLED IN 1909. The bill in this case was filed on July 15, 1909, on behalf of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias of Tennessee, the Grand Lodge of the State, and the various subordinate lodges and individuals composing the order. It was set forth in the original bill that the Knights of Pythias had limited their membership to white persons; that the organization had been founded in 1864 and had developed into an order with a membership of more than 700,000, with lodges in the United States, Canada and many foreign countries. It was shown that the defendants (the colored Pythians) were claiming to have been organized at the same time as complaints and that they gave as the founder of their order Justus H. Rathbone, the same man man who founded the order of complainants. The bill sought to enjoin the defendants from carrying on or prosecuting any work under any name or title embracing the word "Pythias" in conjunction with or a colorable imitation of complainant's order. The bill praved that the defendant be enjoined from establishing or maintaining subordinate society under the name of Knights of Pythias or from using or wearing any of the emblems badges, insignia, regalia, uniforms, arms, designs, pins, rings, buttons, etc., of the order. OCCASION FOR RESOLUTION. The suit was authorized by the Grand Lodge of Tennessee at the annual meeting in Nashville in May, 1909. The immediate occasion for the resolution directed the institution of the suit was a disclosure contained in a communication from Maj. W. H. Sloan of Nashville, Grand Lodge Messenger, to the Grand Chancellor, and which was laid before the Grand Lodge for action. The following appeared in this communication from Maj. Sloan: "About the last of December a letter was delivered to me, addressed to Trellian Lodge No. 11. Not knowing of any such lodge, I opened the letter and found the following startling information. This letter was from Fred NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY FFBRUARY 3, 1911 Douglas Lodge No. 50, Spartanburg, S. C. (Negro, of course), informing Trellian Lodge that Brother James Appling had killed a white cracker (as they were pleased to call him), and that Douglas Lodge had him in hiding. With the consent of the G. C. and G. K. R. S., they appealed to the Trellian Lodge to assist them in getting him out of the country. This letter, with the consent of Maj. Wills, our postmaster, was referred through G. C. and G. K. R. S. to the Sheriff of Spartaburg county." The argument of he suit was heard last week by the Chancellor. John Aust and E. L. McNeilly presented the side of the complainants, the white K. of P. and original order. The defendants, the colored order, were represented by M. T. Bryan. It is understood that the defendant, the colored order, will take an appeal to the Supreme Court. The above appeared in the Nasnville Banner, Friday, Jan 27, as the decision of Chancellor Allison in the suit that was entered by the white Knights of Pythias of Tennessee against the Grand Lodge of the Negro Pythians. The chancellor holds that the Negroes have no legal right to call themselves Knights of Pythias, nor to use any of the paraphanalia of the order. The decision was very disappointing to the Negro fraternity, and steps have been taken for an immediate appeal to the Supreme Court of the State. The Negro Pythians are loath to surrender all they have gained by years of toil; and privation without a legal struggle. Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor of the order in this state says that the membership composes some of the best colored citizens of the state, and a large number of them are tax payers. He said respect for law and order has always been taught by the leaders of the Negro Pythians of Tennessee, and they feel that a grave injustice has been done them by the publication in the daily papers of an a legal letter purported to have been written by a South Carolina lodge to 'Trellish Lodge No. 11, of this city. It develops that no such lodge has ever existed in this state. There has never been any such letter received by any Negro Pythian lodge so far as the officials have been advised. The Negro Pythians have never been known to harbor any man who has willfully and knowingly violated the laws of the land. Respect for the courts and the powers that be is always the ruling passion of Negro fraternal orders. Pending an appeal to the Supreme Court the Negroes will continue to call themselves Pythians and wear the emblems of the order. It may be recalled that Mississippi has just decided a similar case in favor of the Negro Pythians of the state, while the state of Georgia has a suit of similar nature before the United States Supreme Court, which it is believed will be settled satisfactorily to all concerned. The Negro does not desire nor has he tried to force himself upon the white Pythian in any fraternal way whatever. He simply wishes to have the undisturbed right to care for his sick and afflicted, to contribute to the widows and orphans, and lastly to bury his dead without asking for outside aid. NEW MILITIA. The movement on the part of the enterprising citizens of Nashville was started this week in the form of a petition to the Adjutant-General of the state of Tennessee for permission or for his consent for the organization of an additional company of state militia. The petition is signed by practically all of the business men in the city, as well as the professional men, setting forth the fact that Luke Nick is the one to do this organization work. There is already one company, known as "Company G, Unattached," which is thoroughly drilled and is a credit to the state. Each year encampments are held at Greenwood Park, but those who are promoting the new organization are said to be doing it in the interest of the advancement of military discipline that is so needed and that will help the state greatly. RECEIVES A PRIZE AT THE APPALACHIAN EXPOSITION Mrs. Mary Gray, of the Woman's Exchange, 430 Fifteenth avenue, North, is the proud recipient of a premium of three dollars, which was awarded as a prize for the most artistic turban shown at the Appalachian Exposition. Through the kindness of Mrs. Flowers, of the Sunshine Home, the exhibit was cared for and safely returned. Mrs. Gray also received first prize at the State Fair, at Nashville on one of her hats. SLAP AT NEGRO ELECTION OF UNITED STATES SENATORS BY THE PEOPLE TO BE THE VEIL—AMENDMENT TO RESOLUTION REJECTED— SOUTHERN SENATORS WARNED AGAINST SUCH A METHOD— DANGER IN TAMPERING WITH THE FEDERAL DOCUMENT— BITTER FIGHT ANTICIPATED— NEGROES PUT ON GUARD. The Negroes of this country have been put on guard by the editor of the New York Age as to the real meaning of the proposed amendment to the Constitution to legalize the election of United States Senators by the people. The Age says in substance: The resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution was last week reported from the Judiciary Committee to the Senate after a long debate and discussion, and after an amendment offered by Senator Depew of New York had repeatedly been voted down. This amendment, we are happy to note, has been revived by the New York Senator, and was a few days ago the subject of interesting speeches, addresses and observations, chief among which were the remarks of Senator Carter, who pointed out the danger involved to a certain class of our electorate in the proposed amendment, unless certain specific provisions respecting the mode of electing Senators were made. Senator Depew's amendment provides that in the election of Senators, all citizens have equal right of suffrage. The immediate and violent opposition of Southern and Democratic Senators to this proposition, it will readily be seen and even as the Southern Senators themselves admitted, was due to the fact that under it the Southern colored men, now disfranchised by the spirit and operation, if not the letter of State laws, would have the right of franchise in the election of Federal Senators. "I would rather have no change," Clarke of Arkansas, is reported to have said, "than to accept such an amendment." Another mandatory suggestion which has become the subject of a wrangle is that which provides for Federal control of the election of Senators, the advocates of this provision ably contending that, since the Senators are Senators of the "United States" representing the commonwealth as a whole in contradiction to representatives, who represent a given number of people, the government ought rightly to supervise, superintend, direct and control the election. This seems to be not only good constitutional law, but also the very essence of expediency. As we understand it, those desiring the change in the manner of electing Senators seek not to change the spirit of the present law, but to really protect the spirit by safeguarding the dignity of the senatorship. How in the end the spirit of the law will be protected by changing the very fundamental principal of it, is beyond us, and, we imagine, is beyond most laymen, and perhaps, excepting Borah, of Idaho, most lawyers in the Senate who are given to reasoning from cause to effect, and who are not devoted beneficiaries of the operation of legal subterfuges. Of course Senator Carter bravely warned the Senators of the dangers of the proposed amendment. He said in unpolished speech, too seldom used and so often needed, that he perceived in the measure universal disfranchisement of the Negro. He saw also a repetition of fifty years ago, when schoolhouses were turned into forums and pulpits into platforms, and men grew bitter one toward the other. May we not then appeal, not to England, but to our own countrymen for justice to the Senator for reason, and to the leaders of colored Americans to lay aside, for a season, personal ambitions, and bestir themselves like ancient men for the protection of our rights and the rights of our children. The Age would entreat every man and woman who can write to send your Senator a letter, not filled with arrows of venom and hatred, though we are condemned and persecuted, but a letter asking for that justice to which we, and all American citizens, are entitled. The right of petition is ours.

Davis, of Pulaski. Long before the hour announced for the ceremony, the church was crowded to its capacity with the friends and well-wishers of the popular young people. The altar was very beautifully decorated with palms and cut flowers. A large white bell formed the central decoration. Before the entry of the bridal party Mrs. Wilia Zachary sang a beautiful solo. The bridal march was played by Miss Brucie Mal Ewing.

Caldwell, Secretary of the Allen Christian Endeavor League of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, met the bridal party at the altar and there, in a deep and soronous voice, read the impressive and familiar wedding service which completed a beautiful romance and under the laws of the church pronounced them "man and wife." The bride wore a white duchess satin with crystal trimmings, her veil was studded with seed pearls and caught up with maiden hair fern. The maid-of-honor wore a delicate light green crepe meteor with Persian bands. Miss Nina E. Murrell wore a pink chiffon over deep pink messaline satin. Miss Graves, of Columbia, wore light blue satin with crystal bands. Miss Bender wore blue silk poplin, azure tinted with Persian bands. Miss Rnodes wore a French embroidered white lingerie.

Howard, wore soft white lingerie dresses and carried each a basket of white and pink roses. Messrs. Meredith Ferguson and Wm. P. Rose, Jr., were the ushers. A large delegation of friends from Columbia, a former charge of Rev. Howard, were present to witness the nuptials. The wedding collation was served at the bride's home on Phillips street.

STATE SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONVENTION. Among the important meetings to be held in Nashville during the month of June will be the Baptist State Sunday-School Convention and the B. Y. P. U State Convention, both meetings are attracting attention from every part of the state. Information comes from Mr. L. C. Moore, of Memphis, President of the State Convention that West Tennessee, which has heretofore been the life of both state organizations because of its large delegations, purposes to send two special coaches. It will be remembered that these delegations passed through Nashville en route from Chattanooga last year. The State Convention will be held either at the First Baptist Church, Spruce street, or at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Cedar street. The matter is being discussed by the city ministers and it will be definitely stated later on which church will entertain them. The plan, according to the West Tennessee people's version, is to have more life injected into the state young people's meetings by convening last year in the eastern portion of the state and this year in the central. A careful poll made by the Baptist churches shows that from Nashville to Bristol there is quite a Baptist following, which could be easily brought to the Capital City for this state meeting. Up to last year Nashville enjoyed the distinction of having the president of the Sunday-school department, but owing to his illness and inability to attend the meeting, some slight changes were made, but the city Sunday-schools, about forty-five in number, are a unit in their purpose and plan for entertaining the coming state convention. NASHVILLE A STOP-OVER FOR CONGRESS VISITORS. The secretary of the Sunday-School Congress gives out a statement to the effect that scores of letters are pouring into the office from leaders in many states in the Union pledging their support to the sixth annual meeting of the Sunday-School Congress which will be held in Meridian, Miss. Particularly is this true of the east. Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and as far as Pennsylvania, Maryland, the Virginias and the Carolinas. "This," says the secretary, "is encouraging from the fact that the interest has been somewhat lukewarm." Now that the enthusiasm is at high pitch, he predicts the largest and most successful gathering of Sunday-school workers ever held. The railroads are planning to give a very low round trip rate. Transportation for most of the delegations from the north and east will be ar- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1911. ranged so as to pass through Nashville, as Nashville is being pushed as the stop-over point for delegates going to and from the Congress. It is expected that delegates from Illinois, Ohio and Indiana, will stop over as they did last year—in fact, some of the delegates came all the way from Texas through Nashville, and spent several days. All delegates west of the Mississippi can not enjoy the pleasure of stopping over in Nashville. EXERCISES OF THE SENIOR CLASSES OF MEHARRY Mendelssohn—O. R. Bushe, (Medical), Class Historian; L. M.

Morris (Medical) Music.....Walden Orchestra In securing Dr. J. W. E. Bowen to address the Y. M. C. A. we were fortunate. The doctor was on a brief visit to the city and readily consented to address the students before leaving for his home. He made a soul-stirring address, taking as his subject "The Aristocracy of Character." Dr. Bowen said in part: "The aristocracy of you ladies and gentlemen is demonstrated in your vigor, courage and pride. The thought I want to convey is that the man wanted must be one who in the truest sense has reached the required standard, one possessing the ability to love, think and grasp things noble." He further said the race that does not produce men of large girth is destined to take the place of the mediocrity. You men who sit before me must possess master minds, remembering that there are worlds of knowledge that have not been touched. Much of the things which must be accomplished must be done by the medical men, whom I regard at this time as scientists of the greatest order. Let money be secondary and the making of men fundamental. I am compelled to pay tribute to the sainted Dr. Braden, who now is in heaven, and to that distinguished character 'who now sits under the sound of my voice.' Dr. G. W. Hubbard, for their sacrifices in making this institution possible. The doctor turned to the walls and read the following Latin motto: "Vincit qui se vincit," and said, "Gentlemen, there is something larger than repairing human ills; there is a personality which must be built up and this can only be done by first conquering self." We are sorry to announce that on account of illness Dr. Dan Williams was unable to arrive this week. Due notice will be given as to the date of his arrival. The north front room of the basement of the new Hospital will be used as a reception room for patients. This room is now being fitted up for that purpose. Lectures on Dental Pathology and Medicine will be delivered by Dr. M. W. Moores, beginning with February 1st. Dr. A. C. Brady has been engaged to deliver lectures on oral surgery, vice Dr. D. S. Owen, who has left the city. This lecture will also begin with February 1st. Dr. J. T. Wilson left the city during the past week to consult with Dr. Peters, of Atlanta, Ga., concerning some cases of Thyroidism, at the same time he was called to Athens to do some work with Dr. Thompson. The doctor also operated while there for Drs. Brooks and Madison on Tuesday. An informal reception was given in his honor on Tuesday evening, where the physicians of the city showed up in large numbers. At Chattanooga the physicians entertained the doctor at the spacious office of Drs. Caldwell and Clemons, of the class of 1909. Dr. Wilson was accompanied to Nashville by Dr. Thompson, of Marietta, Ga., who had his start in medicine at Meharry and finished his course at Howard University. Washington D. C. On arrival last Friday, Dr. Wilson was summoned to the bedside of Dr. W. T. Bryan*, of Somerville, Tenn., who was afterwards brought to Nashville for treatment at Dr. Wilson's infirmary. Dr. Bryant is a graduate of Meharry, class of 1908, and up to the time of his illness was a successful practitioner. He was accompanied by his wife and her mother, who was called to his bedside from Virginia. Several new students have been added to the nurse training department since the opening of Hubbard Hospital. SUNDAY-SCHOOL COUNCIL OF EVANGELICAL DENOMINATIONS MEETS. The first annual meeting of the Sunday-School Council of Evangelical denominations was held in this city Wednesday and Thursday, January 25 and 26, in the Assembly Room, ninth floor, new Hermitage Hotel There were present fifty-eight editors, publishers and Sunday-school secretaries, representing nineteen evangelical denominations. Strong papers and addresses were presented, emphasizing the vital importance of religious training and the relation of such training to the larger interests and welfare of the nation. The Rev. Alexander Henry, D. D., Secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Publication and SabbathSchool Work, Philadelphia, in an able and illuminating paper, presented the relation of Sunday-school work to the foreign and immigrant population of America, pointing out the exceptional opportunity which this field affords to Sunday-school workers. The Rev. J. M. Duncan, D. D. of, the Presbyterian Church of Canada, spoke on the "Sunday-School in Its Relation to Citizenship." The new evangelism of religious education was outlined by the Rev. Dav'd G. Downey, D. D., of Chicago, Corresponding Secretary of the Board of Sunday-Schools for the Methodist Episcopal Church, his topic being "The Sunday-School as an Evangelistic Force." This new interpretation of evangelism according to which the church is to more carefully guard and protect the child against the influences which tend to stifle and thwart his normal religious development, was received with enthusiasm. THE LORD'S SUPPER THE RIGHT VESSELS USED TO COMMEMORATE IT ANY Congregation can have its wants supplied by securing one of our Guardruple-Plated Table Silver ware Communion Sets at a moderate price and on reasonable terms. A set consists of one flagon, two goblets and two bread plates. If the church wants more goblets or plates, they can be furnished at an additional cost. The commemoration of the Lord's Supper is a very sacred ordinance. The custom for centuries has been to have special vessels for this occasion. Thus a communion set becomes an important part of this service. Many churches have used the old style communion set while others use an individual set. Both are appropriate and well-recommended. One is no reflection upon the other. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING PRICES AND TERMS. WRITE TO THE NATIONAL BAPTIST CHURCH SUPPLY Co., R. H. BOYD, Secretary, 523 Second Avenue, Nort NASHVILLE, TENN. Another topic which proved of absorbing interest to the Council was that of the "Correlation of the Home and the Sunday-School," as presented by Professor Edward P. St. John, of the Hartford School of Religious Pedagogy Prof. St. John is one of the contributing editors of the Congregational Sunday-School and Publishing Society, and a man profoundly interested in the subject of religious training in the home. His paper, together with excerpts from the other papers presented, will be published in the various monthly magazines for Sunday-school teachers, thus bringing the messages of the addresses to practically the entire Sunday-school constituency of the Protestant churches of America. The "Relation of the Denominational Colleges and Seminaries to Teacher Training Needs" was presented by the Rev. H. T. Musselman, D. D., of the Baptist Publication Society, Philadelphia, and R. P. Shepherd, of St. Louis, representing the Sunday-school work of the Disciples of Christ. The topic was taken under further consideration by the educational Section of the Council, and strong resolutions were adopted urging the establishment of lecture courses and professorships in religious education in denominational and other higher institutions of learning. The resolutions further recommended the establishment of courses of instruction for Sunday-school superintendents and teachers in theological seminaries. The various Sunday-School Boards represented in the Council pledged their hearty and active co-operation in the work of the establishment of such courses and professorships. Committees were appointed to confer with the representatives of the International Sunday-School Association touching the matter of Sunday-school nomenclature and the plans being made for the Sunday-school exhibit in connection with the International Sunday-School Convention at San Francisco in June. Sectional Meetings. During the Council there were various sectional meetings. The Publishers' Section was attended by Dr. R. H. Boyd, of the National Baptist Publishing Board, who spoke on "The Needs of Syndicating a Sunday-School Library Among the Various Denominational Publishers," while at the Editorial Section Rev. W. S. Ellington, the Editorial Secretary of the Baptists, spoke on "The Needs of a Parents' Magazine for Parents' Bible Study." At the same time the Educators' Council was being held. Rev. N. H. Pius, Superintendent of National Baptist Teacher-Training Service, spoke at length on the needs of such and on the Advanced Bible Class Readers' Course, which has just been inaugurated by the Publishing Board. Other members of the Council were Revs. C. H. Clark, D. D., and Henry A. Boyd. 1 175 VACANT LOTS situated in the different sections of the City, which we will sell on EASY PAYMENTS.

The Extension Section of the Council presented a report giving valuable statistical data on Sunday-school enrollment and attendance in the United States. The Editorial and Publication Sections of the Council took steps toward closer affiliation and cooperation in their work. Among the other items of important business transacted were the preparation of a reading course for adult Bible classes and the adoption of standards of excellence for Sunday-school work in the local church and a standard of service for organized adult classes. The Sunday-School Council of Evangelical Denominations met for preliminary organization in Philadelphia, June 30 to July 1, 1910. The organization was completed in Philadelphia October 27, 28, 1910. The officers of the Council for the ensuing year are: President, A. J. Rowland, D. D., 1701 Chestnut street, Philadelphia; Vice-President, J. M. Duncan, D. D., 60 Bond street, Toronto; Secretary, Henry H. Meyer, D. D., 150 Fifth avenue, New York; Treasurer, Mr. D. M. Smith, Nashville, Tenn. The next annual meeting will be held in Toronto, Canada, January 24, 25, 1912. --- NEELYVILLE (MO) NOTES. Mr. Ernest Bell who has been visiting his relatives in Mississippi returned last week.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1911. Negro Knights of Pythias. The decision of Chancellor John Allison granting the injunction prayed for by the white Pythians of this state against the Negro Pythians came as a great surprise to the members and friends of the order; not that it was the first instance in which a like decision has been rendered, for be it remembered the Supreme Court of Georgia has ruled against the Negroes in that state; but on the other hand the Supreme Court of Mississippi has decided in favor of the Negroes; neither of the cases cited has been taken as a criterion for Tennessee, however, but it was the general opinion that the court would not grant an injunction to restrain the operating of an organization that has done as much for the uplift of the Negroes as the order of Knights of Pythias has done. The decision of the court is very brief, but it is evident that a prejudiced influence was brought to bear. The report published in the daily press discloses official acts of men who would not be suspected of such, and if the matter is probed to the bottom and if the allegations are found to be true the official in question will be subject to severe criticism. The Negro Pythians of Tennessee have done a great work for the betterment of the race. No better proof of this fact need be cited than the last report of the Endowment Secretary which shows that $4,675 was paid out in three months to the relations of deceased members. This money was collected through the subordinate lodges in a way that it would have been impossible for any other except a like institution to do. The beneficiaries of this fund in all likelihood would have been the wards of charity if their deceased had not been members of the order of Knights of Pythias. In truth the order has done noble work, and it has not been proven that any member or official has ever been known to use the secrets of the order to harbor a criminal. The case will be appealed to the Supreme Court of the State and we do not believe it will be necessary to carry it further. We believe the highest court in Tennessee will give justice to the humblest citizen in the com- NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 3. 1911 monwealth, and it is beyond doubt unjust to hold that one set of men have the exclusive right to the name of a myth. Governor Hooper's Message. In his first message to the State Assembly Governor B. W. Hooper shows signs of true statesmanship. Concerning some things on which all right thinking men agree, he was broad enough to admit that his predecessor had advised that they be given consideration. His stand for a general compulsory educational law is courageous and the law makers will act wisely to put it in force. It was preconceived what his views would be on the liquor question, and he would have stamped himself a traitor had he taken a stand other than he did. As a whole the message is an excellent maiden effort. Abusing Opportunities. At the meeting of the Sundayschool publishers held in this city last week only one of the Negro houses was represented, namely, the National Baptist Publishing Board. This is to be regretted, and, too, when it is remembered that one other Negro publishing house of that class is located in this city. These meetings are very significant, and the managers of the Negro publishing houses make a serious blunder when they pass them by unnoticed. In another column will be found mention of a petition for a new company of Negro militia in this state. The petition should receive the approval of the authorities. If this country ever becomes involved in a war with a foreign nation the Negro soldier will be needed, and it is much easier to utilize the militia men than it is to make soldiers of raw recruits. At the marriage at St. John A. M. E. Church last Tuesday night some mischevious boys filled the house with "sneezing pepper" and the large audience was considerably discomforted. It was a mean thing for the boys to do, but the party who sold the stuff is little less than a criminal, and is deserving of punishment by law. We notice that our contemporary, the "Odd Fellows Journal," has moved from the Quaker City to Washington, D. C. May greater success be attained by this splendid journal. Old Mr. Ground Hog was looking at us on the second. How is the coal bin? EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. THE SOIL OUR MOTHER. When a man has amassed a big fortune in the acquisition of railroads, or the cornering of wheat or cotton, or has through the operations of an iron-clad trust acquired many millions, he turns to the soil for his pleasure as instinctively as a duck seeks the water. The complex problems of business no longer appeal to him. He loses zest in the game of millions, and he no longer takes gladiatorial delight in getting the better of other millionaires and annexing their fortunes to his own. Travel palls upon him; fashion and its close companion, folly, do not attract him, and he turns for real enjoyment to rural scenes. His pride is transferred from railway lines and factories to his cows in the pasture, to his growing crops, and he takes a greater pleasure in watering his horses than he ever had in watering stocks. At bottom we are pastoral in spite of centuries of urban existence. We have not traveled in sentiment and yearning far from the thought that moved Abraham as he stood in the door of his tent. The soil is our mother and we seek our nourishment in her bosom. What a privilege, then, to have been born on the farm and to have spent our lives in its tillage. Every man so fortunately situated has at first hand what every millionaire is determined to secure, and of what every man toiling in the town dreams as he pursues his daily grind. A little greater profit a more satisfactory solution of the labor problem, and a readjustment of laws that bear too heavily upon agriculture, would make farm life so ideal and so attractive, that there would be an end of the movement cityward. Let us all strive for these ends.—Farm Journal. After the Lorimer case is over something else is to attract our attention. The Lorimerites will be so busy shaking the timbs of the family tree that the new, young tender buds may not be able to blossom, the Progressive will weaken the hostiles of Taft, which works in two directions, will be stretched and so badly ruptured that the Republican party will find a tomb in the center of its own graveyard.—Chicago Defender. There is a set of Negroes who live in Oklahoma, whom we have known for some time but whose politics we do not thoroughly understand. This class of Negroes who are would-be-leaders, are trying to show the democrats that they have been in sympathy with the democratic party for years and that they long for party success and that they should be taken care of by the democratic party for services rendered. This same class of Negroes have all along played the Republican party for what they could get for themselves individually at the expense of their people. It is quite laughable to hear each one of these new democrac recruits laud himself and his chances for the appointment of President of Langston University and the Taft Deaf and Dumb Academy. Among this number there are about ten applicants who want to be regents of these schools.—The American. Tennessee has elected a prohibitionist to the United States Senate. He will be very lonesome in that august body.—The Journal and Guide. CONGRESSMAN TAYLOR'S WORK. The colored people of the District are under lasting debt of gratitude to Congressman Taylor, the race's friend from Ohio, for his stand in the matter of appropriation for the colored schools. Due to his watchfulness and untiring efforts the colored schools this year will get $152,000 more than had been estimated for them, for building, sites, etc. The colored people will be especially pleased over the fact that the bill carried $60,000 for a new site for M Street High School. Heretofore M street has always had to come in second best to Armstrong, or get no mention whatever. Congressman Taylor saw to it that M street got recognition, and too, without curtailing the appropriation for Armstrong. In the news columns of The Bee this week is published the items in the bill for the colored schools, and what per cent the appropriation amounts to. The Bee thanks and honors Congressman Taylor for his assistance, and knows that the colored men and the women also thank him, and that the pupils in school bestow upon him their thanks. The Bee wishes there were more men in Congress who could be depended upon to always stand by the interests of the colored race. Congressman Taylor is no recent friend. He was our friend last year, he has always been our friend. He is a friend, and a true one too, 365 days in a year. He proved his friendship before he came to Congress, and he is sustaining that friendship now. Had it not been for Congressman Taylor M street would not get a new site, and the colored schools would have got but 15 per cent of the appropriation or less than half to what they are entitled by population and school enrollment. Congressman Taylor deserves our thanks and support.—The Washington Bee. DO ALL NEGROES LOOK ALIKE IN THE DARK? Attorney John Snigg, well known in the courts here for his "impetuosity" and fighting proclivities, says after nine o'clock at night you can't differentiate between one Negro and another. Mr. Snigg, of course, made this absurd and erroneous declaration for the sake of argument, legal argument at that, and does not believe it himself. You can come as nearly identifying a colored man in the dark as you can a white, yellow or copper colored person. This harangue about all Negroes looking alike is bosh and illogical. The very fact that nearly every Negro is different in some way makes this charge the more absurd. To illustrate: The Negro race is made up of every shade, from white down to the ace of shades in color. If all Negroes look alike because they are Negroes, then it is but logical sequence to say that all Chinese look alike; all white men or Causasions look alike, etc., for the same reason. It is time for us (Americans) to quit this bosh and act like people who are well bred. —The Forum. POLICE BRUTALITY If the sworn statement of Geo. Gill can be believed, the police are indictable for brutal and even inhuman treatment to helpless prisoners, who are put under the "third degree" system in order to force confession on which the prisoner is to be convicted for crime. A sensation was sprung Tuesday morning in Division 2 of the Criminal Court during the hearing of the case of Geo. Gill Vs. State. The State, who was charged with breaking car seals and theft of goods from a railway company, Gill, in his own way on the witness stand, told of the brutal treatment accorded him while confined at the police station. He pointed out Detective Covey as one of the men who landed heavy blows upon his body, breaking two of his ribs and bumping him down the stairway, subjecting him to torture in many other ways to force a confession. His statement was corroborated by County Physician N. F. Raines, who examined Gill at the jail and found him suffering great pain from his injuries. Detective Covey admitted to the court that he struck the Negro, knocking him down because Gill insulted him. Judge Palmer then made a statement as to the evidence which had been adduced and instructed both Attorney General Estes and Police Commissioner Relechman to probe the matter to the bottom. "An officer should remember that a prisoner in his hands is a trust," said Judge Palmer. "He must also remember that the prisoner is helpless, and the use of violence should be deplored. There have been many instances where the accusation has been made against the city police of the use of third degree methods. Such a practice by officers of the law is condemned by The Bluff City News, and all right thinking people as a relic of barbarism, and is responsible for the large number of prisoners on the farm and in the pen which has resulted in depleting the colored population of the city."—Bluff City News. NEGRO LABOR The report of the department of labor and printing for 1910 has just been published and contains many facts concerning the labor of the state. Commissioner Sh pman has doubtless exercised most considerate judgment, both in the plan and the engrossment of the material. There is however one fact brought out in the tabulation of the efficiency of Negro labor which if true, is a severe indictment of the Negro race in the state. The report shows that Negro labor is reported unreliable in ninety-five out of ninety-eight counties, one of which has no Negro labor. In other words only two counties in the state, Davie and Forsyth, report that Negro labor is reliable. As an expression of opinion of the parties canvassed we of course, are forced to rest the case, but as an expression of an established fact, it does seem that collateral facts cannot be interpreted as at one with such opinion. The Negroes have multiplied their property holdings in the state by two in the last ten years and those of Durham County by five. This certainly does not seem to indicate unreliability but a large amount of industry and frugality. It is possible we shall have to find out just what is meant by "unreliable." Does it mean that a Negro can not be relied upon to look after a white man's farm, market his produce and attend to stock as he, the white man does? If such is meant, then the question naturally comes; who can be relied on? The report does not answer this question. CLARKSVILLE MINISTERS The Baptist Ministers' Conference, of Clarksville, Tenn., was called to order Tuesday morning, January 31, by the president, E. M. Seymour, at the Mt. Olive Church. Mt.

It is well enough to make the hen scratch for a living, but we must be careful to provide her with a place where she can get it by scratching. To set her at work in the middle of a bare barn floor, and expect her to find her living there, would be like giving a man a well-boiled bone and expect him to provide himself with nutritious soup. To be sure, it is exasperating to see the hens standing idly around when eggs are being eagerly snapped up at fifty cents a dozen; but let us remember that a man changes his clothes every day, and the hen ought to have time to do so once a year, and if she is rather long in the operation, she is ready for eight months of work when it is done. Let us, therefore, be patient, and give the hen time to change her clothes. If she is compelled, as she too often is, to roost on the bare branches of a tree, she will need every feather she can pile on. Since we are specializing in dairying and other things, it should be our aim to breed hens that will lay in every month of the year, by regulating the time of hatching. We have done wonders in that direction, but we have not yet reached the top notch. The hen of the next decade will be a wonderful improvement upon the hen of to-day, energetic as she is. We may even be able to set her cheerful cackle to music. CALENDAR FOR FEBRUARY. The month of bad weather is here. While it is discouraging in that respect, as a month for egg production it is certainly the delight of the poultryman. The chicks hatched out this month are born a little too early to be practical for breeding purposes. There is more profit in them if marketed later on as broilers, or kept until they reach the soft-roaster stage. Of course, it goes without saying that the hen must be kept comfortable to lay well, even in February. Cold hens will not lay. The old hens, having fully recovered from their molt, are now prepared to show what good is still in them. Incubators started about the middle of February will bring out hatches in early March that are desirable to keep for stock birds. It is not unusual to have a few broody hens this month; but unless good, warm and dry quarters are provided for the youngsters when hatched it is not advisable to set the hens. There is considerable bad weather in March that will greatly affect the young chicks. Market the capons. The prices for broilers this month are a little higher than they were last month, and the demand is better. Good prices are paid at present for soft-toasting chickens. The general duck-laying season begins at the end of this month, but a number of large duck farms secured quite a lot of eggs during January. In fact, the duckmen are annually so breeding their stock that year-round egg production is becoming more common. Continue to keep the fowls indoors so long as snow is on the ground. Eating snow causes diarrhea. NOTES AND QUERIES. When you begin to doubt whether it pays to keep live stock on the farm, take an inventory of the young animals that are growing to maturity. Often you will be agreeably surprised at the magnitude of the footing. It will be almost like finding money. The farmer who has not time to fuss with a young colt had better go into some other business. To cleanse a clogged wire milk strainer, brush it over with damp soda. It works like a charm.—D. E. M. Make friends with your horses. They will enjoy your sociability as well as you will. Sensible horses like to be talked to by sensible people. Kicking is very frequently caused by sore teats, inflamedudders, long finger-nails and possibly sometimes by the general arkwardness of the milker. To prevent a cow sucking herself, sew a tow sack around her neck and stitch into it on each side three stiff wooden rods so she cannot reach back to her flanks. The horse sweats less during the winter months than in the warm weather, and consequently he requires more carrying to keep his coat free from dust and the pores of the skin open. A cheap, successful balanced ration for the hogs may be formed by mixing together one-third soaked oats, one-third bran and one-third chop or whole corn, using either sweet or sour milk to form the slop. Never attempt to clean or otherwise disturb your horse while he is eating his meals, unless you want him to bite and kick. Better take him out of the stall and make a business of. Tie your horse in the center of the stall, unless you want him to do as most horses, drive more on one rein than the other. SOME SEASONABLE ADVICE. Wake up, good folks! Don't while away these short winter days just doing chores. See that something is accomplished every single day indoors and out, besides the regular work. The successful people are those who get things done. A lot of time may be profitably spent looking after the poultry. Winter is a good opportunity to do repair work on narness, machinery and buildings, as well as for pleasant and profitable reading and neighborhood visiting. It is a good plan to look over every rod of fence and, while walking over the farm, make up your mind just where to put the different crops this coming season. Get a pencil and paper and block out a map of your farm and lay out your work. Having your plans all made ahead, and getting ready for a good start, greatly helps when the hurry of spring work comes on. Be sure to get off the order for all seeds, fertilizers and spraying materials so they will be on hand; then no time need be lost on a busy day going to town for supplies. Miladi's Note Book.

The first to speak was Dr. Nobel, of India. She told, of her work in that far away land in a most touching manner. Mrs. Peabody, one of the most enthusiastic workers, told of her present work and of her past as a worker on the foreign field. Mrs. W. A. Montgomery, author of "Western Women in Eastern Lands," made a beautiful and touching talk—She was heartily received by the audience. Miss Hughes, from China and Mrs. Miller also made impressive talks. Those women, who availed themselves of the opportunity to hear these noted women can never forget the inspiration these talks were to them and no doubt have resolved in their hearts to know more about foreign work and to give liberally of their means to propagate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. --- LAWYERS' EXAMINATION HELD. ON MONDAY and TUESDAY of this week in the Criminal Court Room of the ederal Building, an examination for applicants to be admitted to the bar in the state of Tennessee was held. It is said that over fifty persons were present to take this examination and that it was a noticeable fact that out of this number only one was colored. This one is said to have made a creditable showing. He is a graduate of the Law Department of Howard University, and is at present a clerk in the Navy Department at Washington, a position he has held for the past seven years. The friends of Mr. Adams say that it is more than likely that he will locate in Nashville. He has gone home, however, to await the results of the examination. It is not stated just when the papers will be examined, but preparations are already under way, say the friends of Mr. Adams, arranging for his location. CONFERENCE AT ST. PAUL.

Campbell is superintendent, Rev. I. H. Lawrence, pastor. Y. M. L. C. At the home of the president the club entertained a good meeting. "Garfield as a Steamboat Captain" was very successfully treated by Mr Rhodes, who monopolized the meeting by his electrical persuasion. The calendar for this month is a rare treat, for in connection with the Washington birthday occasion and speaker, the club will be favored on Lincoln's birthday, which will be celebrated on the 13th by an address from Prof. Keith, of the High School Manual Training Department. We all know him as a gifted man. The next meeting will be with Mr. J. L. Leach, 130 Lafayette street, also the acceptance of new members. BEULAH TEMPLE Beulah Temple No. 14 met in their hall Wednesday night, January 25. The attendance was not what it should have been on account of rain, but several members were given second degree, after which the charter was explained, the members all seeming to have been greatly benefited by the same. Miss Martha Falkner was then empowered to get up Juvenile for said temple, all members pledging their support. The W. P., Mrs. Maria Block, then surprised those present by serving a very dainty lunch, which was very much enjoyed by all. Mrs. Maria Block, W. P.; Annie Young, W. See. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. The Y. M. C. A. has been having some very interesting and helpful meetings during the last few weeks. On Sunday, January 15, Mr. J. H.

Kelly will lead the prayer meeting. Young men, come, let's sing and pray together. Meeting from 3 to 4 p. m. DR. E. M. STEVENS. Dr. Matthew E. Stevens died at Texarkana, Texas, Saturday, January 28, and was buried there last Monday. Dr. Stevens was a graduate of Fisk University and of the Medical College of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago. At the close of his college course he taught at Fisk University. He located at Texarkana, Tex., where he had a large practice. He also conducted a well-equipped drug store and accumulated valuable property both in Tennessee and Texas. He brought his family to Nashville for the education of his children. He took an active interest in the life of the community and in the uplift of the people. His family has the sympathy of a wide circle of friends. A short but impressive memorial service was held at Fisk University, Tuesday, January 31. Rev. Geo. W. Moore made the address. MR.

He came South a year or more ago and spent a month in Nashville on his way to Florida for the benefit of his health. He afterwards went to Canada and later to Phoenix, Arizona. He was a man of genial personality and had a wide circle of friends who will be surprised and pained to hear of his death. MISSIONARY MEETING AT THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH a meeting of vital importance to foreign mission work is that being prosecuted by all the denominations known as the Missionary Jubilee, or in other words, a Jubilee Mass-Meeting, to be held at the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, Tuesday afternoon, January 31, at 6:30. This is the colored women's department meeting. They will be addressed by three leading mis- sionaries, one a medical missionary, who has spent much time abroad. Two weeks ago plans for holding this meeting were perfected and a special call meeting held at the residence of Mrs. F. A. Stewart, Eighth avenue, North, at which a full representation of all the denominations in the city were present. SUPERINTENDENT OF AGRICUL TURE Recognition for untiring efforts and for labors rendered in behalf of the location of the Normal School has come to Mr. Ben Carr, a citizen of Nashville, and one of the most prosperous farmers in this section of the state. He was elected this week Superintendent of Agriculture of the State Normal, Agricultural and Mechanical College. The fact that Mr. Carr has under cultivation a farm of over five hundred acres, which he purchased, paid for and has managed successfully for a number of years, is evidence conclusive that the Board of Education made no mistake in this selection. One other member of the faculty in the person of Prof. White, Principal of Burrell Academy, Florence, Ala., was also elected at this meeting, which was held in the State Capitol Tuesday. LITTLE LOUISE MOORE BURNED LITTLE LOUISE MOORE BURNED. Little Louise Moore, two years of age, was taken to the City Hospital Wednesday morning suffering from severe burns about her body which the attendants say, will probably result in death.

The wedding bells have not ceased to ring. The cards are out announcing the marriage of Mr. B. Garrett and Miss Sallie Dinwiddle next Wednesday evening. THE RECKLESS REPORTER AND THE CARLEFF PUBLIC In his article on "The Case of the Reporter," in the February McClure's, Professor Hugo Munsterberg, the noted psychologists, gives instances of the faked interviews and the sensational distortions which the newspapers have printed about his own work. In speaking of the general carelessness of the American press, Professor Munsterberg points to the deteriorating effect that this is bound to have nupon the public morals. "And with this goes an indifference to accuracy and correctness. If the average man is constantly reading pages and pages with the feeling that the writer does not care whether it was so or not, if he finds daily that the events of to-day prove that the reports of yesterday must have been incorrect and confused, his whole mental life loses the instinct for exact distinctions. If we always moved in the illumination of late twilight, the lenses of our eyes would lose their power of accommodation to sharp outlines. There can be no doubt that the lack of accuracy is one of the most serious faults of our social mind. Our entire educational system suffers from its looseness. Children leave school without ability to be careful in their spelling and mental arithmetic. Instead of thoroughness, we have only dash, and all practical life is harmed by this carelessness. Can there be anything more dangerous than this systematic education for inaccuracy by the reading of misreporting newspapers?" Character does not ultimately consist of being good but rather character consists of being effective. If one is good so much the better, but if good and non-effective his goodness is not of value to him. Be effective, do something better than any one else can. This is character.—The Durham Reformer.

Sporting News. 00 Ricks Morris, the well-known sporting editor, says: The time is now drawing near when Jack Johnson will be compelled to defend the heavyweight championship title. I don't take much stock in the recent rumor, however, regarding an engagement between him and Kaufman in England. Johnson has small cause for worry, however, so far as Kaufman and Langford are concerned, and they are the only possible opponents for him at the present time. It is my opinion that Langford might give the champion a much harder battle than Kaufman could. The latter must have improved a lot to have even a chance with Jack. He always was a good, steady, plugging sort of battler, but up to the present time he has showed no brilliance in his work that would lead one to suppose he could furnish more than a good workout for Johnson. The N gro has come to be regarded, and probably correctly, as one of the fastest men and best boxers that ever stepped into the ring. His speed would be likely to tie Kaufman up in knots and the length of a fight between the two would seem to depend, on paper at least—on Kaufman's ability to absorb punishment and Johnson's patience. In other words, Kaufman's ability as a fighter is well established and he is too old in the game to inspire any one with the belief that he will show a sudden improvement that will lift him to the plane of the champion.

Taylor, of the Colored Reformatory School, is pushing things in the interest of this new movement. Several audiences were given him and his trustees by the Senate Committee this week. It is said that a bill has been recommended for passage authorizing the appropriation of $15,000 to continue the work entered into and fostered by Davidson County. Another conference was held at the Sate Capitol Wednesday, but the results are not known. CARD OF THANKS. We, the sorrowing family, wish to thank the many frends and neighbors for their care and friendship, many deeds of kindness, that cheered the heart of our little darling and sufferer, Lillian, who for eighteen months lay on her bed of affliction, in this the hour of our bereavement, she having been taken from us. We NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1911 on the other hand, is that although he is old in the game no one knows just how good he is. Like Johnson himself, he has never been pushed to his limit in the last few years of his career at least. But I do not believe that either Langford or Kaufman is the man who will rouse the enthusiasm of those who hope and expect to see Johnson fall to defeat in the ring. The conqueror will be a new man in the game some young, strong fighter who wins his way to the top in a comparatively short time. That such a man is already in sight is the belief of many followers of the game. The man is Carl Morris, the Sapulpa engineer, who is built like a giant and is said to hit as hard as a mule kicks. He is heralded as a natural fighter, one of those men who takes to the game as a duck takes to water. Of course, at the present time, one can hardly believe it possible that Morris is master of much of the finer part of pugilism, but one may well suppose from what he has done that he has the ability to learn. In Oklahoma the populace apparently is wild with enthusiasm over him and already looks upon him as the man who will certainly beat Johnson and restore the heavyweight title to the white race. All this enthusiasm may be premature, but it is pleasant to behold it just the same, and it is by no means out of the question that Morris will develop into the next champion as his fellow citizens hope and believe. again thank each and all of you for sympathy.

IN the shadowy ranks of those who marched to defeat or death or victory fifty years ago in the mighty conflict that convulsed this great nation, is there father or grandfather or uncle of yours? Would you like to see a photograph of him in that long ago day of his youth—a photograph that he never knew was taken? Perhaps we can show you one; and in any case, we can tell you a story, stranger than any detective fiction, of 3,500 priceless photographs that were lost and are found again. 3,500 Long Buried Photographs of the Civil War THEY were taken by the greatest photographer in the United states of that day; they were bought by the United states Government for $30,000; they were buried in the War Department for 50 years—they are buried there still. But a duplicate set was kept by the photographer—who died poor and broken down; that duplicate set was knocked from pillar to post for nearly 80 years, until it was discovered by a New England collector. J. Pierfort Morgan tried to secure the collection—Ex-President Carfield and General Benjamin F. Butler said it was worth $150,000—with the help of the REVIEW of REVIEWS, the entire collection has been gathered into 10 great volumes and is placed within your reach at less than the value of one of the photographs. It is the one accurate, impartial history of the Civil War—for the camera cannot lie. It tells the story of the War you never heard before. Taken under protection of the Secret Service, these photographs bring to light thousands of little-known phases of the war; they penetrate to strange places and record strange things.
