NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. VI. BIG GATHERING Tillers of the Soil Hold Two Days Meeting. EXPERTS OF GOVERNMENT MAKE INTERESTING DEMONSTRATIONS—FARMERS FROM ALL SECTIONS OF WEST TENNESSEE ON HAND—CONFERENCE INTERESTING AND PROFITABLE—DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES SENT OUT TO THE WORLD—GATHERING BELIEVED TO BE FIXTURE Special to the Globe: Jackson, Tenn., Feb. 25.—"The importance of owning land," "Seed selection," "Cultivation of Corn and Cotton," "How the Soil May be Improved," "The Educational and Religious Needs of Our People," "Benefits of a Fair," "Necessity of Growing Food-stuff," "Evlils of the system of Furnishing Hands," "Stock-Raising," "Why we Should Patronize Our Business Enterprises," "How Can the Death Rate Among Negroes be Lowered," and "What Have I Done To Improve My Own Condition and That of My Community During the Past Year" are the principle topics that engaged the attention of the two hundred farmers during the two days' session of the Farmers' Conference held Thursday and Friday of last week at Lane College of this city. In addition to those who came by rail all the way from five to one hundred miles, here were farmers, preachers and teachers who came in wagons, on horse-back and buggies of various kinds. Great crowds followed up the sessions of the conference from the very opening on Thursday morning to the time when Dr. W. H. Daniel pronounced the benediction Friday night. The college band furnished splendid music which added no little to the enjoyment of the hundreds who spent the entire day on the school grounds. The following counties in Tennessee were represented: Shelby Fayette, Madison, Henderson, Chester, Gibson, McNairy, Haywood, Tipton, Lauderdale, Oblon and Henry. These farmers came for a purpose and remained until the end of the session. The good women of Jackson served a big dinner at the College to all of the farmers and their wives, and a more enjoyable time has never been had among the colored people of Jackson. Mr. H. D Tate, one of the agents of the staff of Dr. S. A. Knapp, of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, was present and gave very interesting and instructive addresses from time to time. The Declaration of Principles which the Conference sent out to the country at large are in substance as follows. "We, your Committee, beg leave to set forth the following declaration as the principles for which this Conference stands. "We note with much satisfaction the continued progress and rapid strides which so many of our people are making along all lines of human endeavor, and can see the hand of Providence as his purpose unfolds itself in the development of a race of people long oppressed and despised. "In our eighth annual session we can but feel thankful and rejoice in the many signal victories which we as freemen have won in the past forty-seven years of our history. Along with this progress, we want to call attention to the fact that there is such a thing as a people, like an individual, becoming drunk over its progress and satisfied with its condition. This is a danger that must be studiously avoided by our people everywhere. While we have many good reasons to be encouraged, it is highly necessary for us to see that our people do not become so satisfied with their present condition that they will cease in their efforts to do their very best. "We unhesitatingly go on record as favoring the following movements: Since agriculture is and always must be the most important of human occupations, and the one that must so largely determine the prosperity of the nation, we approve most heartily the work of Departments of Agriculture of the national government as well of the various states in fostering agriculture and mechanical NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1911 schools, maintaining experimental stations, holding farmers' institutes and otherwise encouraging farmers in becoming more efficient in cultivating the soil and conserving the natural resources of our great country. We deeply deplore the discrimination so often made on account of race in this work. "We repeat our disapproval of the old methods and practices so long followed by a great many of our farmers. "We sorely deprecate the continued existence of lawlessness in so many parts of our country, and urge upon our people everywhere to hold in check the rougher element and thus, as far as we are able, suppress lawlessness and crime among us. "On the other hand, we call attention of our white friends to the fact that prejudice and race hatred and a long article in the newspaper justify white-capism and mob-violence on the grounds that the victim was an 'insolent, burly coon,' or an undesirable member of the community reflect very seriously on the white man's ability to govern himself and enforce the laws which he alone makes. The assertion that the best white people of the community participated in the affray and that the murders proceeded in an orderly way to break the law are the severest indictment that could be brought against our neighbors." A state fair will be held during the summer and fall of 1913 celebrating the fiftieth anniversary was endorsed. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL PEARL HIGH SCHOOL. The success of a graduate of Pearl High School is always a source of gratification to its faculty and should serve as an incentive to the undergraduates. Information has just reached us of the appointment of Miss Edwina M. Smith, P. H. '09, to the position of Head of the Domestic Science Department of the Middle Tennessee Normal School, which is to be opened near our city. Miss Smith is at present completing a special course in the Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, N. Y. It is an honor to her, that she should have been chosen to fill such a responsible position. We feel that before the opening of the school, she will be in every way qualified to carry out every duty which the position may demand. Miss Smith has a genial disposition, and if she has inherited any of the tact and executive ability which characterizes her father, Prof. F. G. Smith, principal of our High School, we see no reason why her work in the new school should meet other than success. Pearl School feels proud to be able to furnish her share of material for the making up of the first faculty of a Tennessee State Normal Among our visitors we are delighted to make mention of Prof. F. M. Russell, principal of Douglass School, Cincinnati, O., and Prof. A. T. Hill, of the High School of Pulaski, Tenn. Prof. Russell is accredited with having made the most interesting and practical speech that has been delivered at Pearl School Auditorium. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE OF BRISTOL Bristol, Tenn., Feb. 21.—One of the most progressive and wide-awake Local Negro Business Leagues in the country is the one in Bristol, Tenn.Va., of which Robert E. Clay is president. This league is one of the few that has kept in view the object for which it came into being, viz.: the financial and material advancement of the people in the community where such a league is formed. Since its origin, the Bristol League has very largely stimulated the Negro people to build homes, establish business enterprises of various kinds, and accumulate property of whatever description. Every year the Local League has a celebration, which tends to increase its influence and usefulness. At these anniversary several of the white as well as colored men of prominence are invited to be present and speak. Among the principal speakers at the celebration last month were the Rev. C. H. Johnson, pastor Lee Street Baptist Church, and Major A. D. Reynolds and Secretary F. M. Runnels of the Board of Trade. The latter congratulated the League upon the material evidences of industrial and commercial thrift and assured its members of the moral and active support of the Bristol Board of Trade in all its good works. Why cannot more of the Local Leagues emulate this kind of progressive spirit? CITY FEDERATION IS CALLED TO MEET The City Federation is called to meet at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church corner Gay street and Eighth avenue, Friday p. m. 3 o'clock, March 10th, 1911. 'A full attendance is desired. PEOPLE AMAZED Do Not Consider Him the Man for Teacher. UNWILLING TO TRUST THEIR CHILDREN IN HIS CHARGE— SCHOOL TEACHERS SHOULD BE CHASTE THEMSELVES — CONSIDER THAT THE BOARD HAS COMMITTED A GRAVE ERROR— STRONGLY PROTEST HIS RETENTION — COMMITTEE CALLS ON SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION. Parents who send their children to Knowles School are up in arms over the appointment of George Waters back to the position as teacher. To say they are indignant would be putting it mildly. The citizens who are entering complaint against the above-named party are principally property owners and taxpayers. They are striving hard to build up a respectable community around Knowles School and do not feel that they have been treated justly. They believe that the teachers of the public schools should live above suspicion. They think that in making the appointment of men or women to teach that none but the moral and upright should be given consideration. The schools of Nashville are not the place for the immoral. The patrons can not conceive what "pull" this man can possess that compelled the board of education to look upon him with favor. A committee of prominent colored citizens waited upon Superintendent Keys Friday morning to ask that none but moral men and women be put on guard in the city schools. It is said that too much laxity of morals are allowed to prevail already, but the recent action of the authorities was the straw that broke the camel's back. A number of citizens of the city have been interviewed and what they say concerning the case would not look well in print. One gentleman said that restitution of a convicted criminal to his former position in the public school smells to Heaven and that he was willing to let the powers that be know that a grevious error had been committed. DR. BOYD DEFENDS MR. NAPIER. Mr. Editor: I have read with profound astonishment the unfair, unjust and un-Christian attack made upon our friend and most distinguished citizen, Hon. J. C. Napier, by the Atlanta Independent. How such a falsehood could have reached the Independent, I can't see. I have known Mr. James C. Napier for more than thirty (30) years, as the political, social and financial leader in this State amongst the Negro race. He represented the race on our State Central Committee thirty (30) years. He was educated in Willberforce University, a Negro school, fostered by the A. M. E. Church and completed his law course in Howard University, a Negro school. For a great number of years he has been one of the strongest supporters of Booker Washington and is looked upon as Mr. Washington's special friend. During all of his religious life he has been a member of a distinguished Negro church and the leading light and strongest supporter of that church. Mr. Napier's family, parents, brothers and sisters have always been in our social circle as Negroes, and on many occasions when his color would have passed him, I have known him to make it known that he was a Negro and proved of his identification with that race. No person who knows Mr. Napier has ever thought of him other than a Negro. The Independent was only joking. Nobody told him that Mr. Napier ever tried to have the country declare him white. Mr. Napier is my personal friend and has been my lawyer during all my business and professional life. He is a Negro of whom the whole race is proud. Very truly, R. F. BOYD. Putnam-Warner. The marriage of Miss Pearl Warner and Mrs. Robt. L. Putnam was beautifully solemnized at 8:30 o'clock Wednesday evening, February 15, at the home of the bride, 813 Overton street, in the presence of a large number of relatives and friends. Dr. W. B. Denny officiated. Miss Maggie Hargrave presided at the piano and rendered the artistic wedding march as the bridal party entered the room. The house was decorated with ferns and cut flowers. The attendants were Miss Helen Johnson, bridesmaid; Mrs. Fannie Warner Washington, a sister of the bride was matron of honor and Mr. William Tinnion was best man. The bride wore an attractive gown of white satin trimmed with real white spangled beading. She carried a shower bouquet of bride's roses and ferns. She also wore pearls in her hair. The bride's maid wore a gown of pink satin with an elaborate bow of ribbon in the back to match. She carried a bouquet of American Beauties and ferns. Mrs. Washington, matron of honor, wore a gown of white silk trimmed with spangled beadings. The bridesmaid entered the room alone, then the groom and best man. The bride came in with her sister, who then gave her away in marriage. After the ceremony a solo was sung, "Because I love you, dear," by Miss Anna Rucker, of Walden University. A course of ice and cake was served. The out-of-town guests were Miss Mary Bowers, of Ridgetop, Tenn., and Mrs. E. E. Juler, of Cincinnati, Ohio. WHITEVILLE NEWS Mrs. Laura J. Beard is in Nashville at Wilson's Infirmary to be treated. We trust that Mrs. Beard will be much benefited. Mrs. A. K. White left last Saturday night for St. Louis, where she intends to work. Mrs. Temple Coleman is much better at this writing. Little Gradie Green is convalescent. Dr. G. A. Shelton is spending some time in Nashville this week with Dr. Wilson at the Infirmary. Mr. J. A. Motley's family, Mrs. Tatum and her family left early Monday morning for their new home, five or six miles northeast of Brownsville, ville. Miss Mattie Tatum will be much missed among the young ladies of Whiteville. Mr. Junior Price, who has been in St. Louis these last few months, is at home. He plans to be here a while. Miss Hill is up and out on the streets again. Mr. Willie Dotson's $400 nag does not look so pretty, but she can travel so fast. ERIN NOTES. On last Thursday Mrs. Hannah Yarber, of Barnsly, Ky., departed this life and was brought to her former home, Erin, Tenn., to be buried. The S. M. T. of this town, of which she was a member, had quite a nice funeral. Rev. Hampton, of Sadlersville, Ky., preached her funeral. His text was "Blessed are ye that are mine when I come to gather up my jewels." Rev. Love, pastor of St. Luke, Erin, is conducting quite an interesting teachers' meeting for the Sunday-school each Thursday night. Sautter Club: Mrs. Daisy B. Love, Mr. Pierce Newell, leader. Tyree Club: Mrs. Alysa Johnson, Mr. E. D. Hughs, leader, will give a joint entertainment at St. Luke A. M. E. Church on the 4th of March. Every one is invited to attend. Miss Lena Dortch, of Ellis Mills, is in the town to spend a few days with Mrs. Latham, who has been ill for several weeks. Miss Leona Johnson has been on the sick list but she is up now. Mrs. M. J. Jackson is yet on the sick list. Every one present at the U. P Hall last Saturday night seemed to have enjoyed quite a nice time. The entertainment was given by one young lady of each church, namely: Miss Eddie F. Dobbins, St. Luke A. M. E. Church; Miss Estella Daniel, of the C. M. E. Church; Miss Cally Woldridge, of the Baptist Church. Mr. Willie Parchman has returned home from West Tennessee, and visited his Sunday-school meeting. Mrs. Willie Brown is delighted to have with her her mother and aunt from Huntingdon, Tenn., this week. Mrs. Eva Dudley, of Mississippi, has opened a class for small children at her home and the children are jolly and glad. Rev. B. Dobbins is holding his second quarterly conference. No. 9 HON. J. C. NAPIER To Report for Duty March the Sixth. NO FURTHER HITCH ANTICIPATED IN THE APPOINTMENT—FRIENDS OF MR. NAPIER SHOWER HIM WITH CONGRATULATIONS—WILL NOT LEAVE BEFORE FIFTEENTH OF MONTH—WELL KNOWN IN NASHVILLE—PROMINENT IN PUBLIC AF-AFIAIRS—CITIZENS PREPARING A BANQUET. What appears to be the news that the Negroes of Nashville and Tennessee have longed and desired to welcome has come. Hon. J. C. Napier, the well-known lawyer of this city, has received notification from Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh to report in Washington to assume the duties of register of the United States treasury on March 6 or at his earliest convenience. For the past year it has been generally understood that Mr. Napier would be appointed by President Taft for this important position, but for the reason that provision for the care of Hon. W. T. Vernon, of Kansas, the retiring register of the treasury, has not been made, the appointment was delayed. Twelve years ago Attorney Napier became ambitious to become register of the United States treasury. Since that time he has been offered many high honors at the hands of several presidents of the United States. All of these he refused. He made formal application for the appointment of register of the treasury under President McKinley. This was his last effort, the appointment now coming to him unsolicited. It is his present intention to report in Washington about March 15. However, he has not definitely decided this point. At least it will not be later than the fifteenth of the month. For many years Mr. Napier has been one of the South's most prominent exponents of his race and his appointment to this high office is no surprise to those familiar with national political affairs. It was by his own efforts that he acquired the prominent station in life he enjoys. Although the possessor of much talent, he has always been extremely modest and unassuming. Gratification at the appointment will be general in Nashville. Some twenty-five years ago Mr. Napier was elected a member of the city council of Nashville. By application he gained a thorough knowledge of the municipal government and introduced several measures before the city council that were of benefit to the city. From city politics he drifted into state politics, becoming a factor in the republican party in his state. Some years ago he entered the banking business as cashier of the One Cent Savings Bank of Nashville. The confidence in which he was held placed the banking institution on a firm foundation from the very start. At all times he devoted considerable time to the practice of his profession—that of a lawyer. He is well known throughout the country. The citizens are preparing to give Register Napier a banquet prior to his departure that will be commensurate with the position to which he has been honored. IMPERIAL CLUB Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Erwin entertained very charmingly Wednesday evening at their home on Jackson street the members and friends of the Imperial Club. The house was beautifully decorated in roses, carnations and ferns. Games were enjoyed until a late hour, when the guests were invited into a beautifully decorated dining-room, where a four-course menu was served, carrying out the colors red and white. The guests were as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Milton Darden, Mr. and Mrs. Orlando Voorhies, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Nicholson, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Erwin, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Voorhies, Mr. and Mrs. William Smithson, Mrs. Berry. 2 BILL TO ABOLISH NEGRO SECRET ORDERS. Commenting upon the bill introduced in the West Virginia Legislature to abolish Negro societies, The Mountain Leader of the 16th, says: It is to be regretted that such a law has ever been introduced in the legislature of this State. We believe that the white Elders are responsible for this attempt as the father of this bit, Mr. Carr, is one of the leading Elders of this State. This is the same Mr. Carr, whom Messrs. Allen Denney, Robert Hammin and Walter Harris yelled themselves noose for in the last election. You could see this same gentleman with his arms about the necks of these three distinguished colored Democrats during the recent campaign, pouring his siren tails into their ears. At every meeting of the Liberty Club on Morris Street, this same Mr. Carr was present, speaking to the colored voters, telling them what the Democrats were going to do for them. He became the champion of the liberties of the black boys of Kanaawa County. And what has become of an of his profession to our good Democratic friends who helped to place him in office? His first enchant is a drastic blow at every black man in the state. We are not surprised at it. It is just what we predicted. when we implored our people not to take a leap in the dark, when we warned them what they might expect if the Democrats were elected, we were accused or using those things to frighten the colored voters. But all we have said has come true, and something we did not say—the effort to destroy every colored order in the state. CAPERS CHAPEL PUTS FORWARD HER YOUNG MEN AS OF FICERS. The reorganization of the Board of Stewards of Capers Chapel, C. M. E. Church, this city, gives a majority of the membership of the Board to young men of the church. Mr. E. Metlow retains the chairmanship of the Board, Prof. Jasper T. Phillips, Vice-Chairman; Leon Polk, Secretary; Prather Walker, Treasurer.

Phillips administered the holy sacrament to the congregation. A spiritual wave swept the congregation as the Bishop in a most impressive manner read the beautiful Methodist consecration service. The Nashville Globe was selected by the Board through which to make public its official announcements. The officers are planning a general improvement on the interior of the church this spring, as well as rebuilding the platform to the main entrance. Annual Spring Rally April 9.

(From "The Standard Oil Company—Bankers," by George Kibbe Turner and John Moody, in McClure's Magazine for March.) Nearly a billion dollars of cash has come to them, and with it they had received a training and experience that had never been exactly duplicated in the world. They were trained in the exact uses of great bodies of cash capital. Ready money was their chief tool; it soon became to them a real thing—almost tangible to the hand; and they learned to gauge its powers as no one else had done. They were trained, these men, in the most savage speculative game in the world. They had learned how readily a huge financial power could master it. They possessed, in their experience in investing their tens of millions of dollars of cash, an insight into the value of collateral and of the properties it represented; they saw the inevitable consolidation of the railroads and the industries of America in the past twenty years; they saw the ebb and flow of bad and good times in this young country "where we go so rapidly," and they knew the power of capital. They possessed a power never held before, and they used it, as individuals, in exactly the way they had used it for their corporation to absorb the unearned increment of a young and growing continent. And so, about the time of the panic of 1893, these men began to appear in NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. MARCH 3. 1911. the great finances of the United States—employing their old formula. They were bankers in every essential sense; loaners of moneyys, sellers of tens of millions of foreign exchange; experts in collateral. They were men of different minds and temperaments varying from the most conservative to the most daring. They made use of their ready masses of capital in many and ingenious ways. But nothing was more notable than the extension and multiplication of the power of their ready resources, through the natural instrument of money—the bank; and especially in the great movement of banking consolidation, which they helped to inaugurate. And now in fifteen years the command of ready resources, which they and others through this means developed, has grown and centralized, until the fear of it is frightening a continent and menacing, in many minds, the whole present organization of society. ELECTION OF OFFICERS AT SUNSHINE HOME. Mrs. E. E. Peterson, the Superintendent of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, spent Saturday night, the 18th inst., with us. Workers' Conference held their monthly meeting Monday, the 13th inst. Quite a number of ladies were present. It was quite an enthusiastic meeting.

Ridgley, Assistant Secretary; Mrs. H. B. P. Alston, Organist. The Sunday-school was renewed last Sunday, the 19th inst. Quite a number of children were present. The Wednesday afternoon prayer service was well attended. Mr. and Mrs. Capp, of the Pentecostal Mission, were present and rendered valuable assistance in the service. All present were benefited. The Christian Workers' Foreign Mission Society will hold its monthly meeting next Monday night, the 27th inst. All are cordially invited to be present. News came to us near two weeks ago of the serious illness of Sister Moore, and we feared she would not be well again, but we are hearing from her daily and find she is much improved. We hope she may be spared yet many years to us. CHINAMAN WEDS AMERICAN, THE CEREMONY BEING PER- Seattle, Wash., February 23.—Harry Toy, aged 24, a Chinese merchant of this city and Mrs. Daisy Davis, aged 21, formerly a worker in the Methodist. Episcopal Chinese mission in Portland, were married here yesterday by Rev. W. T. Osborne, pastor of the African Methodist Church of this city.

Convention, it has been announced that the State Convention will, according to invitation extended it, meet with the Kayne Avenue Baptist Church and Sunday-School on Kayne Avenue, this city. The President of the B. Y. P. U. Convention, Mr. L. C. Moore, of Memphis, is preparing now to send out letters notifying the Sunday-schools throughout the state of Tennessee of the acceptance of the cordial invitation by Rev. Mr. Lawrence and his members. The forty oid Sunday-schools of Nashville, together with the Sunday-School Union, the pastors and churches, are said to be making preparations for the largest State Sunday-School and B. Y. P. U. Convention that has been held in Tennessee for a number of years. Of course, Memphis and West Tennessee are expected to send in the largest delegations, as they usually travel in special coaches. The programme will be announced later, but the City Ministers' Conference has plans under advisement from which they expect great results. ALABAMA STATE BUSINESS LEAGUE ADJOURNS.

He is planning to tour this state and other Southern states with his bright thoughts. Rev. Richardson's subject was "The Opponent Forces." Mr. Richardson made a grand impression and is very popular among our people. Mr. Booker T. Washington, Jr., was in Franklin last week buying some real estate. Mr. J. E. Ewing and his little granddaughter, Nora Jane, were in Nashville last Sunday visiting relatives and friends. Prof. J. K. Hughes made a trip to Nashville last Saturday. Mr. F. D.

D., SECRETARY. ningham is a graduate of the Nurse Training Department of Freedman's Hospital, of Washington, D.C. Mrs. Samuel Furgeson, formerly of this city but now of Nashville, was in the city last week. The Directors' meeting of the Mutual Trust and Loan Company was enthusiastic and successful in every particular. The following directors were present: Rev. G. W. Porter, Dr. S. Jefferson, Chairman Dabney, Wm. Keesee, N. R. Kimbrough and J. H. Thompkins. Chairman Dabney, after the regular routine of business, called for the reports of the president, Dr. R. T. Burt, who in the most cheerful way outlined what had been done during the last quarter, showing how rapidly the company had grown; the confidence and interest of men of means from a distance had imposed in the company by buying the stock. He emphasized the fact that our people had succeeded individually in business, but had done little collectively in business until very recently. The Secretary and Treasurer, Prof. H. R. Merry, then made his report, showing that $866.44 had been turned over during the quarter with with a clear profit of $45; as well as many other strong points to show the financial condition of the Company. The other directors, Messrs. S. A. Dabney, J. W. Page, E. Williams and Dr. E. S. Randals were not present due to some being ill, while others were absent from the city. Dr. Burt has bought another young, spirited steed after having the misfortune to let one of the ones he prized so highly, "Jack Johnson," slip upon the ice during the cold December weather and so badly laming himself he has never recovered from it. The doctor now keeps three horses. On last Monday night, February 27, one of the grandest entertainments of the season was given by the Supreme Council of the I. K. of G.'s at the Masonic Auditorium on Franklin street. They were assisted by the Supreme Temple No. 1 and the Supreme Fountain No. 1. No pains were spared in making it pleasant for all who attended. Plenty of good music and best of order prevailed. The members of the Supreme Council are Messrs. J. M. Trice, J. P. Steele, N. R. Kimbrough, S. A. Dabney, E. D. Carr, N. Dixon, C. F. Cob, P. T. Lilog, C. A. Kelly and G. Moss. Sunday, February 26th, was a great day in Mt. Olive Baptist Church, on Main street. The members and friends celebrated the third anniver- sary of their pastor. Rev. E. M. Seymour. A very interesting programme was carried out in the morning session, including an excellent sermon on "Essential of Church Strength." In the afternoon a program was rendered by some of the best speakers and soloists of the city. Rev. G. L. Harris, of Fifth Ward Baptist Church, delivered the anniversary address, which was elegant in every detail. Fifth Ward choir furnished excellent music for the occasion. A large number was present at the night session, and all were highly pleased with the day's work. Mr. U. M. Riley, of Indiana, and Miss Lillian Johnson, formerly one of the city school teachers, were quietly married in Indianapolis, Ind., on December 26, 1910. Mr. Riley arrived in the city last week and will soon take his wife, who has resigned her position with the city schools, to their future home in Liberty, Ind. Dr. R. T. Burt, physician-in-charge of the Home Infirmary, was called to Ashlund City last Thursday to do a very tedious operation upon Rev. E. W. Washington, who has been ill for about two months and could not be brought to the Infirmary. Dr. Burt was assisted by Dr. S. J. Smith, a prominent white physician, who is in charge of Rev. Washington's case, and one of the Infirmary nurses whom he carried with him. The patient is doing well. The members and friends of Mt. Olive Baptist Church were given a rare treat in the form of a grand musical concert on last Wednesday night, February 22nd. by the Willing Workers' Club, who has for its president, Miss Belle Garnett. After an interesting program, consisting of solos, duets, recitals and papers, had been rendered, refreshments of all kinds were served. The program was highly enjoyed by all who attended. Prof. H. R. Merry and Mr. Edward Overton spent Saturday and Sunday in Nashville. On February 20th Dr. M. E. Coleman, of this city, delivered an address to the graduating class of Elkton High School, Elkton, Ky. Miss Annie Howard, of Gallatin, is in the city the guest of her sister, Mrs. M. E.

FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1911. An Outraged Public. When the Supreme Court of the State reversed the lower court and set at liberty George Waters, formerly a teacher in our public schools, the people, who have generally sympathized with his family, were glad that he could once more, in some way, provide for them, but they did not dream that the Board of Education would put this man back in the schools to teach their children. The Supreme Court gave Waters his liberty on the ground that he had not done an injury to the party who was prosecuting. The fact is brought out in the decision "that the relation between the female and Waters "occurred in a populous part of the city of Nashville;" further that the female made no outcry and no resistance;" "that she had been guilty of the offense of having sexual intercourse with another man other than this defendant prior to the time of her charge against him." The court clearly establishes the fact that the female complaining was a prostitute; but no attempt was made to show how she came to be. Slight reference is made to an experience in Sunday-school and also to the poor condition of the family to which the female belonged, all to prove that the female was not a chaste person and not entitled to the protection of the law. We agree with the decision of the court, and congratulate the defendant on being able to prove that he had not done the female in question any wrong, but let us consider the other side of the question. This female has been proven to be so lewd that she is not entitled to protection under the statute that guards the chastity of women, let us ask the question. How low did Waters stoop to get on a level with her? He has not attempted to prove that he has never at any time had carnal knowledge of the female. The complaint the people are making to the Board of Education is that the stigma has not been removed and the man is not of the character that should be intrusted with the training of their children. The parents are right in their contention and we believe the Board will correct this error. It is not just to pollute the minds of hundreds of children because we sympathize with a man who has a moral weakness. Mr. Napier Notified at Last. A telegram came this week to Mr. J. C. Napier, who was several months ago appointed by President Taft Register of the Treasury, notifying him to report for duty by the sixth of the month. The information came direct from the Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. MacVeagh, and is accepted as final. This news will set at rest the rumors that have worried the appointee and his friends so long, for it is not believed that the Secretary of the Treasury would send such a message unless he was absolutely certain that NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 3, 1911. the appointment would be confirmed by the Senate. Mr. Napier is deserving of this honor and we have no doubt that he will wear the same with dignity. Our neighbors in the western part of the state are wide-awake to the farming industry. Middle and East Tennessee should take note of the fact. The Legislative Committee visited the Normal School site this week. There is plenty of good farming land near by, gentlemen. If your coal bin is empty, better see the coal man. Two sun spots have been, discovered and may put old Sol out of business for a season. Governor Hooper says he is a better friend to the Negroes than Governor Patterson was. We are all Missourians. March greets us with her bristles up. We were reminded of the prophecy of the groundhog. Lorimer retains his seat in the Senate. He would be more comfortable, though, out of it. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. AN OUTRAGE. The reported "race riot" at Fort Worth, Texas, seems to have been a disgraceful attacks by hoodlums on the Negroes of the town without any sort of provocation. "The trouble started," so a dispatch from Fort Worth says, "when a picture show for Negroes exclusively opened its doors at 8 o'clock. Almost immediately after the mob began to gather. Then a volley of rocks and bricks was hurled into the building, wrecking the place and scattering its occupants. Finishing here, the mob began a sys-间 interfered with." tematic hunt for Negroes. Sweeping through Main, Houston and Commerce streets the principle business thoroughfares of the city, the rioters invaded every place where a Negro was seen, and if the unlucky darky was not fortunate enough to outrun his persecutors he was set upon and beaten. In one or two instances proprietors of the places stormed held the mob at bay, but it generally was This was an outrage pure and simple. It was without excuse and can have no possible palliation. It is incumbent on the white population of Fort Worth where, as in all Southern communities, the Caucasian claims the right to rule because of superior fitness, to give protection to be Negro population and to insure them against violence or any form of unjust treatment. The Negroes are held more strictly amenable to the law than any other class and they are entitled to its full protection. The participants in the Fort Worth mob are of a class that constitute a blot on Southern manhood. They are a class that should not be tolerated in their lawlessness and the strong arm of the law that they violate and contemn should be vigorously exercised for their punishment. AIN'T IT HELL? Just think of it! Oklahoma, a Republican (?) State, in the hands of Democrats, who have disfranchised the Negro, and when the Federal government interferes on behalf of its citizens, the State appropriates money to fight the Federal government, thus compelling the disfranchised Negroes to pay attorney fees to sustain the grandpa clause. Aln't it hell, fellows? Surely, justice sleepeth.—Muskogee DEAD IN LOUISVILLE. Thursday night, March 2, 1911, Miss Blanche Franklin died in Louisville, Ky.

POPULAR LECTURE.—"The Function of Christianity in the Solution of The Race Problem," by Rev. M. W. Gilbert, D. D., late of New York City, Monday night, March 13, 1811, Roscoe Conkling Simmons. "Mr Toastmaster: "No word from you is needed to warn me that I am not expected to instruct this distinguished company upon the achievements of matchless Lincoln. Such a lesson you would seek from one more deeply learned than I ever hope to be. Nor do I come to lay the final wreath from his children upon the memory of Father Abraham. Lincoln's chief handiwork our own, our matchless Washington, himself a prince of peace, laid before the nations the tribute of my race that was redeemed by Lincoln's mightiest act, and by his precious blood baptized into the brotherhood of man. "I am here simply to report to you sons of those that went to war to loose the chain that held men bound, what is the record of the freedmen making their way with great difficulty towards God's hills of liberty, what be the triumphs of democracy, in her own country, and to learn from you if faint you are under the burdens Lincoln bequeathed to all to test whether liberty is a dream, equality a mockery and the brotherhood of man a scholar's creed, of whether God fixed these ancient hills as citadels of peace and righteousness and coursed out streams to sing freedom's song. "Let me turn aside to the soldiers of the Union, if there be any here—or to their sons—to thank you for what you did on the battlefield, not for a people, but for the grandest land surveyed on Time's giant map, and for freedom the world over. Let a nation's heart hold you its cherished flower, or the nation's treasury be emptied at your feet, still the debt we owe you were not half paid. Or let ungrateful youth of latter years withhold from you the tribute so richly deserved, and the cynic with the pen seek to rob you of a fame claimed only by the brave—still down the years you will remain the best and bravest soldiers that ever went to war. "The talk of the streets to-day is the verdict of Truth tomorrow. Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipator of my race—himself a slave chained by poverty and ignorance—born in a Kentucky hut carpeted with boards and finished in logs, who had no teacher but nature, and who knew no religion but right—the world has picked him as the only uncontested contribution of this continent to the roll reserved for those born not to die. And yet he was but a simple man, who knew God made all men, and who thought he alone was noble who loved all men alike. "If Lincoln could come among us tonight, if he could come and speak he would say, tear up your books, silence your orators, destroy your poetry of praise and hush the song upon your lips and write this as the record of my life. "Abraham Lincoln—he made men free." "I count Lincoln the star witness against the spirit of power and blood and money that has made of us a nation of dollar-chasers and money changers, gluttonous of pomp and ragged titles. If our hero had sent in his card to a mansion of the wealthy one year before he came out of the west sealed to do freedom's work, he would have been denied admission. "I am in Newburgh, ancient citadel of freedom. I come here each year where great Washington made his home when the humble colonists defied old King George, who got vexed when he heard that Boston Bay was black with unexpected tea. I go each year to Vicksburg, where Grant tarried a season when the cotton growers attempted to raid constitutional government. I was there recently. I leaned against the canon that masks the spot where the rebels, under Pemberton, surrendered to the patriots under Grant. At my left the Mississippi sang a soldier's requiem; before me stretched stately monuments erected by loyal commonwealths to cherish the memory of loyal sons; at my feet were the unknown and unmarked graves of 200,000 soldiers who there gave their lives that the nation might live, that all men might be free, and that the Constitu- at the First Baptist Church, Eighth avenue, North.

Looking up I saw a vision. It was Lincoln. I heard a voice saying, Be of good cheer. All this was not in vain. Unless God's throne can be overturned time will make all things right. "You ask me what of that liberty that Lincoln, an instrument of God, placed in the hands of the American Negro. I could assemble for you tonight men living and dead whose record of achievements ought to wring praise even from the thoughtless men, and whose accomplishments in any land save their own would engage the pen of the chiefest of unbiased historians. And I would exclude four men whom no race or language can claim; Douglass, the orator; Dunbar, the poet; Langston, the statesman, and the Virginian slave, now one of earth's great—Washington—not George. My race came out of slavery with my race. It had no past with which it had a definite acquaintance and no future to which it could in confidence look or move. You told us to get edu- ducation. We hand in the records showing that, without one dollar's aid from Washington, we have reduced our illiteracy by 58 per cent. You told us to embrace the Christian religion. One-third of my race are on the rolls of the Christian church and from our meagre purse we have in- vested $35,000,000 in church property. "You told us to get wealth and we report to you that we are paying taxes on $600,000,000 in property. You told us to try the fields of trade and commerce. We have 58 banks, five insurance companies and 10,000 merchants. You told us to try the professions. We hand you a list of doctors and lawyers and editors larger than our country could claim when Crispus Attucks was first to take the orders of old Sam Adams and defy the British intruder. You told us to pursue the ways of peace; we say to you that in the South black and white are learning to live side by side in peace as God planned. We present a manhood self-discovered and a noble womanhood rising from the ashes of woe. "Wherever you have sent us we have gone, whether to the fields of cotton and corn, to the forge, or to the battlefield to fight for the only flag we have ever known. Whatever you have told us to do we have done, with simple and child-like faith. "Recently I stood on the base of Grant's tomb, the waters of the Hudson below. Contemplating the wondrous sword of the world's greatest soldier, I heard the prophesy: An hundred years hence all men upon this continent shall be free; Truth shall again be naked and liberty go unguarded.' I heard the hymn of Longfellow set to the music of broken tears: "We have not wings, we cannot soar. But we have feet to scale and climb. By slow degrees, by more and more, The cloudy summits of our time." "I saw a picture, I saw the throne of Liberty; on one side I saw Frederick Douglass; on the other; John Brown, with his finger on Harper's Ferry. In the midst, I saw the prince and king of peace forever, holding love for a sceptre and the Emancipation Proclamation for a chart—Abraham Lincoln, the world's crownless king." Turning aside Mr. Simmons then proposed this toast, which was given with cheers: "Here's to Lincoln's soldiers, who fought to crush slavery and save the Union. Here's to Sheridan in the Shenandoah; here's to Sherman marching from Atlanta to the sea and matchless Grant at Vicksburg and Appomattox. Here's to Harriet Beecher Stowe and Julia Ward Howe; here's to Joe Dickey, our friend and comrade, and here's to the North and the South and the Union forever; here's to the only flag that never touched the ground, and to our country under one flag, one destiny and one God forever."--Newberg Evening Union. as to her and set for hearing ex parte.

While hunting an accidental discharge of a gun in the hands of Mr. Royal Jones sent the entire load through the flesh part of Mr. Sam Hayes' arm, but not a single shot entered the body. He was taken to Mr. Ned Jones' the father of Mr. Royal Jones, and two physicians were summoned at once; but after all he died about 3 o'clock Friday morning.

On Friday evening last the spacious auditorium of Meharry Medical College was filled to overflowing with students and representatives from the various institutions together with a popular representation from the city at large, to hear Dr. M. C. B. Mason's masterpiece, "Sour Grapes." Promptly at 8:15 the orchestra sounded its stored up thrilling note, a signal to start, followed by the invocation by Bishop Evans Tyre, of the A. M. E. Church. Then followed a solo, and the remarks of the able president of the Hospital Association, Dr. J. E. Wells. She in brief outlined the work of the club, and its aim, also the amount raised since the organization of the same in July, 1910. After this beautiful review, the popular club woman and organizer in a fitting way presented Mrs. A. M. Townsend, who in turn introduced Dr. Mason. In a beautiful array and with a voice clear and sweet, Mrs. Townsend told the audience of the early life of Dr. Mason, of his triumph over difficulties until now. He occupies an office of honor and responsibility with one of the noblest organizations in the Church he represents. As the result of this magnanimous introduction the speaker arose and in the usual choice style he addressed the audience on "Sour Grapes." Dr. Mason laid aside all authority and placed himself on record for his able definition of "Heredity." He in turn paid particular tribute to the Heroes of Emancipation and other prominent men who, in spite of their herited influence, became glowing factors, setting a pace for their fellow men. May this silver-tongued orator always come to us, bringing his storehouse of unusual facts and to call the roll of doers who have sprung from the fog of life, and inspire us to throw off the yoke of heredity and wash off the stains of "Sour Grapes," neutralizing them to the development of our welfare. At the close of this beautiful lecture, the speaker was presented with a handsome bouquet of American Beauties. On making the presentation, Miss Sophia Jackson as representative of the club, paid high tribute to Dr. Mason, outlining his achievements and his usefulness in awakening the sleepy souls of his race. Dr. Mason in his usual cordial manner fittingly thanked the club through its representative. The singing was a never-to-be-forgotten feature of the program. The solo by Miss Bright was one filled with volume and led the way for the bright and powerful discourse. The program was completed by a solo by Miss Maude J. Roberts. She is rightfully styled the prima donna of the University, and we would not be on trend of exaggeration were we to conclude that, naturally gifted with a musical voice, she masters the field of vocal expression in a manner of merit to her instructor as well as the school. Her return to the stage as a result of the unanimous applause from the hands of a satisfied audience, gave expressio not their pleasure in listening to culture and refinement in the musical role. As all the ladies who appeared on the program are members of the club, the organization is to be congratulated upon having such an array of talented members. OPPORTUNITY FOR ABUSE. Judge Buchanan of Supreme Court Hands Down Able Opinion. In reversing the verdict of the lower court in convicting George Waters, of violating the age of consent law, Judge Buchanan, of the supreme court, took occasion to make some pertinent remarks regarding the law invoked and its chances for abuse for the purpose of blackmail. The defendant was formerly a teacher in the Nashville city schools. The court ordered him discharged from custody. The opinion was reported in full by John J. Norton, court reporter, as follows: "The plaintiff in error was indicted and convicted in the criminal court of Davidson county under the act of 1910, chapter 19, and has appealed to this court and assigned errors. "We think substantial error was committed under the charge of the court. Under this statute, we think, the defendant was entitled to have the principle charged direct by the court that if the jury had a reasonable doubt as to the chastity, or as to the character, of the female in question being that of a lewd or hawd person that they should have found the defendant not guilty. That was not done in the charge of the court. The defendant was also entitled to have the specific principle charged to the jury that the jury should not convict the defendant upon the unsupported testimony of the female in question. That was not done. An effort, perhaps, was made by the court to supply those two defects in the charge by reading the statute to the jury as a part of the charge of the court. The statute announces both of those principles, but that practice has been condemned by this court in a former decision, and we think that there is substantial error upon the part of the court not to have given the defendant the benefit of these two important legal principles which were vital, each of them, to this defendant. We think that should have been done and that there was substantial error in the charge of the court on account of his failure to do that. "But aside from this error of the charge of the court we think that upon the whole evidence the female in question's testimony was not supported. We think there was no support, and we think there was no such inherent force and convincing power in the testimony of this female in question as warranted the jury in finding this, defendant guilty. The defendant was a man of about 38 years of age; he was married and had two children; had accumulated some property; he lived in Nashville many years; was a teacher in the public schools and had been for many years. His good character was established by about ten witnesses, five of whom were men of official life in Nashville's prominent men. They gave him an excellent reputation; his general character was good. His good character was also established by about five prominent colored men in the city of Nashville. His good character, to be sure, was assailed by the state, but by a character of testimony not near so credible, we think, as that by which his character was sustained. "Now, the inherent weakness of the testimony of this female in question is perfectly manifest on this record. In the first place it is shown that she had ill-will toward this defendant. It seems that he was a Sunday-school teacher, and that when this young woman was a small girl he stopped her from Sunday-school on account of her fighting with other pupils in the Sunday-school, and that was the cause of the prosecution. The family seems to have been unavrurable toward him, this we gather from the record. We further gather from the record that his family in- tended to make gain out of this defendant; they intended to bring this charge against him and force him to make a money settlement in order to hush this matter up, and it is admitted that efforts of that kind were made by different members of the family. A brother-in-law of the female in question, the sister of the female in question, and the mother of the female in question all talked to him about a money settlement, and the intimation was if that could be made the matter would be adjusted all around. "The female in question and her family were very poor people, in very reduced circumstances, twelve in number. They slept in two rooms; she had a brother-in-law there who had a son about her age, and about the time of this conception on her part this boy ran away. It was shown that there were numerous opportunities for other men and boys of the same race as that of the female in question, and this defendant, to have committed this offense, and the improbabilities that the plaintiff in error committed this offense, we think, on the face of the testimony very great. No charge was made against this man until six months after pregnancy, a circumstance, we think, entitled to considerable weight. The testimony of the female in question as to the facts constituting the first carnal knowledge of her by this defendant is very unsatisfactory. She relates these facts and it develops that it occurred in a populous part of the city of Nashville, and that she made no outcry and no resistance, that might be called resistance, no effort to escape, and it does not appear at all that she was in any fear of personal violence, or that she desisted from so doing on this account. It further appears in the evidence that she had been guilty of the offense of having sexual intercourse with another man other than this defendant prior to the time of her charge against him. That appears by the testimony of a witness somewhat malodorous, but still it appears in the evidence, and other facts and circumstances which we gather, and which appear in this record, lead us to the conclusion that she was in all probability an unchaste person before the date when she alleges this defendant had carnal knowledge of her. "Now upon all these facts we think that this jury should have found this defendant not guilty, and we feel that this statute, while its policy is good, is one which is susceptible of being made an instrument of great injustice by a conspiracy on the part of the girl and her family. And we feel that the courts ought not to lend themselves to that kind of effect or operation of the statute. The statute is intended to protect chastity, but it is not intended that it should be made an instrument in the hands of unchaste females or other designing members of the family to oppress innocent men, and we believe that this man is innocent, and therefore the judgment of the court below will be reversed and this defendant discharged." BEULAH TEMPLE MEETS. Beulah Temple No. 14 met in regular meeting Wednesday night, February 22, 1911. Regular routine of business was transacted. Six new members were added to the roll. The Grand Master was presented and Princess, Mrs. Maria Block turned the meeting over to him, his object being to pay his annual visit and inspect Temple. Secretary, Mrs. Annie C. Young, made her report for the year after which the Grand Master gave a brief sketch of Beulah Temple for the benefit of its new members and spoke in the highest terms of the present Princess and urged all members to be loyal to her and she would lead them to victory. Several visitors were present among whom were Endowment Clerk, Mrs. Mollie Thomas, Mr. Berry, Secretary of Centennial Lodge and Mrs. Perkins, Secretary Rose Bud Temple. All spoke in glowing terms of the order. A lunch was then served by the members of Beulah Temple and all partook of same and expressed themselves as having enjoyed the affair. PASSED INTO THE BEYOND.
