NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. NEW REGISTER OF THE TREASURY ROYALLY BANQUETTED BY HIS FRIENDS. Odd Fellows Auditorium a Scene of Brilliary. HON. AND MRS. NAPIER SUMPTUOUSLY ENTERTAINED LAST FRIDAY NIGHT—EVERY DETAIL WORKED OUT TO PERFECTION—FLOWERS AND GREENERY ENWRAP THE GUESTS WHILE SEATED AT TABLES—EFFORT NEVER BEFORE EQUALED IN NASHVILLE. The banquet tendered Hon. and Mrs. J. C. Napier Friday evening, March 10, on the eve of his departure to enter upon his new duty as Register of the United States Treasury was a fitting tribute to one of Tennessee's noblest sons. The concourse of citizens who entered so heartily into the spirit of the occasion attested to the high esteem in which the honored guests are held. The spacious Odd Fellows Auditorium was decked in brilliant array, the national colors, red, white and blue, predominating. From the ceiling were suspended massive folds of bunting interwoven with flags, from the walls the same arrangement blended into a magnificent scene of beauty. The festal boards were decorated with plants and cut flowers presenting an appearance of nature's sweetest gift. Sparkling cut glass, gleaming silver, together with the immaculate white REV.

In spite of the fact that the decorations just described leave nothing to be desired, the climax in art and beauty were reached in the superb arrangement, of the special table prepared for the honored guests and party, which was placed on an elevation in the west end of the hall. The background of flowers and palms forming a niche of exquisite beauty served to lighten the hearts and inspire the hopes of all who witnessed it. Promptly at 9 o'clock the guests, led by Mr. and Mrs. Napier, entered the banquet hall to the strains of harmonious music played by the accomplished Prof. N W. Ryder. The guests were received by the honoree and the reception committee. Immediately after the grand march, Bishop Evans Tyree invoked divine blessings upon the occasion, after which the evening's program was begun, interspersed with music by the celebrated Fisk Quartet composed of Messrs. Work, Ryder, Olden and O'Hara. Especially attractive and artistically arranged were the souvenirs for the NASHVILLE, TENN. FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1911 occasion. They were printed on the finest coffee-colored Aeolian paper in brown ink. On the front cover framed with national colors was an excellent likeness of the honoree. The souvenir contained the program, the menu and the names of the committees. The elaborate menu, including many entrees, was accentuated by the polished way in which it was served by competent caterers. Places were found at the table by attractive place cards elaborately embossed with the date of the occasion and a miniature of the honoree. The menu was served in six courses, each of which was complete in itself. The ices constituted a charming feature, being molded in the form of a rose and served with individual cakes bearing the monogram of Mr. Napier. The souvenirs were artificial roses, facsimiles of real flowers. The banquet was an honor never before bestowed upon a fellow-townsman, but a justly merited one. The first speaker of the evening was Hon. J. T. Settles, of Memphis, Tenn., a life time friend of Mr. Napier, in choice words, attested the many beautiful traits of the guest "As a Politician." Dr. C. V. Roman, who always seems at home when making a speech, in a most eloquent manner spoke to the toast "As a City Councilman." "As a Lawyer," was the toast of a brother lawyer and fellowtownsman, in the person of Hon. J. W. Grant. Hon. H. V. Cashin, of Decatur, Ala., vividly and in convincing language (Continued on Page 8.)

T. Terry Slays Lawson Buford March 10th. TRAGEDY HAPPENED IN ARISTOCRATIC SECTION OF CITY—NO PROVOCATION FOR DEED—LAWSON PLEADED WITH TERRY NOT TO SHOOT HIM—EXPLAINED THAT HE WAS NOT A BURGLAR—BORE EXCELLENT REPUTATION — TERRY EX-POLICEMAN. The most brutal and cowardly murder that has ever happened in this city was when Z. T. Terry, employed as night watchman to look after the property of several West End citizens, last Friday night shot and killed Lawson Burford, chauffeur for Mr. W. R. Cole. The shooting occurred in the basement of the Cole residence, 2122 West End avenue, three shots being fired. Terry was bound over to the Criminal Court Saturday morning by Judge Baker on a charge of murder. Through his attorney, Mr. E. A. Price, Terry states that what he did was in the protection of Mr. Cole's property and self-defense. Miss Frances Moore, a housemaid at the Cole residence, stated that she heard Burford tell Terry several times that he was not a robber and that he drove the car for Mr. Cole. From the girl's statement Terry wanted Burford to open several doors and also the garage to prove that he had access to the house. During the argument the girl says Terry kept saying that he would shoot Burford in a minute if he didn't do what he said. She said one shot was fired at Burford as the men were in the basement with the lights on and two others were fired as the chauffeur ran up the stairs. Mrs. Cole when seen stated that Burford had been working for them for a month and that he came with HON. J. C. NAPIE DUTIES O HON. J. C. NAPIER ENTERS UPON DUTIES OF OFFICE. Washington, D.

She said she and the governess and little boy were in the upper room and that Dr. Owen Wilson was called, Burford being dead when the doctor arrived. Terry is 54 years of age. He was arrested shortly after the killing by Patrolmen Bryant, Heekin, Kiger and Friel, who were sent out after Terry had telephoned to the station of the occurrence. There seems to have been no provocation at all for the shooting, but simply an act of a blood-thirsty man, intent on doing murder. Terry had no right to shoot Burford. His duty was to watch and not to kill, and this young man certainly did not act as a burglar would act. It is said that Terry knew Burford well and had every reason in the world to know that he worked for Mr. Cole. The fact that he had been there a month and that Terry was watchman should have brought the two men in contact with each other at some time. Young Burford was an excellent young man, having been reared at the home of the late Col. Matt. Gardner, where Burford's father worked for many years. Lawson was a graduate of the Commercial Department of Walden University and was preparing to enter Howard University to complete his education. His father was for several years superintendent of the large estate of Col. Gardner and was a trustworthy servant. Young Burford bore the best reputation, and his friends, white as well as black, are determined that Terry shall be punished to the full extent of the law.

No.11 GREAT SAGRIFICES OF HUMAN LIVES GREAT SAGRIFICES OF HUMAN LIVES FALLING WALLS GOVER UP SGORES OF MEN Fall & Franklin Building Scene Of Catastrophe. WITHOUT A MOMENT'S WARNING THE WORKMEN ARE PINNED UNDER TONS OF BRICK AND TIMBERS—MANY MIRACULOUS ESCAPES—THE GROANS OF SUFFERING MEN HEARTRENDING—MAYOR HOWSE LEADS THE VOLUNTEER RESCUERS— BRAVE MEN RUSH TO ASSIST. A catastrophe, the most appalling in the annals of Nashville, so far as sudden death is concerned, fell upon the city Wednesday shortly before the noon hour, when over forty men were caught beneath a falling wall in the ruins of the fire of March 6, and the lives of one white man and seventeen black men were snuffed out and a dozen injured more or less seriously. The dead and injured were employed in salvage work inside the J. H. Fall and Sol Frankland buildings, on Third avenue, North, near the Public Square. Suddenly, without warning, and while the men were going about their work without a thought of the fate which was soon to overtake them, the division wall began to sway under the force of a strong wind, and in a moment the bricks began to topple from the wall, the first bricks falling in one direction and the bulge turning a part of the wall into the other open space, with a mighty sound the mass of brick was dumped upon the heads of the unsuspecting workmen. No time was there given to get to the entrances a half-hundred feet away. All attempted this, but were caught and buried before they had covered but a fraction of the distance. That all did not meet sudden death beneath the tons and tons of brick and mortar was due to a kindly interposition of Providence in behalf of some of the men. Only by the merest chance were the men so spared placed in such a position that either chance timbers left lying in disorder were so arranged that they protected the men beneath from the weight above, or in a few cases the bricks themselves, in falling, so fashioned themselves as to make a "pocket" which served to break the force of the weight above, and gave a small breathing space to the imprisoned men. Hardly had the bricks settled and the cloud of dust arisen before strong hands of brave men were at work to save the lives of the men known to be inside. The color of the skin of the unfortunate men made no difference to the rescue party. It was enough to know that human beings were probably in a living grave. Willing hands did all possible, and saved a number of lives which otherwise must have been sacrificed. In the ears of those who were inside the buildings the cries of the imprisoned men were falling, coming from under heaps of brick and wreckage beneath their feet. The pitiful calls for help were sufficient to move strong men to tears or incite them to more feverish haste in the work of rescue. For four hours these cries could be heard, and then they died away, as the unfortunate men succumbed to the impossible conditions which surrounded them. Many of the dead men sent their last message to the outside world from beneath tons of brick and mortar, and waited in vain for the help that could not be brought to them in time. NEWS QUIBKLY SPREADS. News of the tragedy flew swiftly, and a crowd collected almost before the sound of the falling walls had died away. Relatives and friends of the men inside the building hurried to the scene to get information as to the fate of the men. Only two white men were known to be inside, though a countryman who was making an in- 10 Have You Bought One?

The various undertakers who have ambulances were as prompt to respond as the city. Mr. W. H. McGavock, Mr. A. N. Johnson and Mr. Preston Taylor were all on the scene doing everything in their power to relieve the suffering. The searching continued all night Wednesday and through Thursday. It could not be ascertained Thursday morning just when the search would be ended. The scene around the undertakers was most pathetic Thursday morning. The bodies of the dead men were being dressed and the throng of curious people kept a constant stream going to and fro. There were eight bodies at A. N. Johnson's and two at Preston Taylor's. RUMOR GROUNDLESS. A Globe reporter called on Mr. Preston Taylor and asked him about the report in the Banner about, a difference between him and Mr. A. N. Johnson over a dead body. Mr. Taylor said he had not seen Mr. Johnson since the catastrophe happened. MR. JOHNSON ON THE SCENE. Mr. A. N. Johnson was one of the first to reach the scene after the walls fell. He was on his way from East Nashville and was crossing the square when the walls fell. He at once ordered his ambulance and crew out and jumped right into the thickest of danger. He labored all day and night with his crew, bought gloves and furnished lunches for the rescuers. Mr. Taylor Hurries in from the Country Mr. Preston Taylor was out at Greenwood Park when the walls fell. As soon as the news reached him he hurried to the city and joined the rescuing party. His crew of men, with the ambulance and wagons had been on the scene from the first and the entire crew remained all the day and some of them all night. MR. MCGAYOCK BROKE DOWN. Mr. W. H. McGavock was among the first to reach the scene after the walls gave way. Though hardly able to be out of bed, he could not stay in his office when he learned of the accident. He staggered through the crowd but was overcome by the excitement and was compelled to abandon the field. PRESIDENT TAFT PUTS LEWIS IN Washington, March 15.—W. H.

Following the usual course, the Colored Teachers of Alabama are planning this year one of the largest meetings held by colored teachers anywhere in the South. The meeting is to be held at Huntsville, Ala., one of the oldest and most aristocratic towns in the state. The date of the meeting is April 12, 13 and 14th. Every colored teacher in the state of Alabama is expected to be present. The programme for this year is already nearly completed. On Wednesday evening the usual welcome exercises will be held. Thursday morning will be given up to the general topic. "The Preparation of the Teacher." This will include the discussions of the literary and industrial qualifications of the teacher. The teacher's duty to study after he or she has begun to teach. The attendance of teachers at Summer schools, County Institutes, etc. The afternoon will be given up to sectional meetings as in past years. The Chairman of these sectional meetings who had charge last year will continue this service this year. Thursday evening will be given up to addresses by distinguished speakers. The morning session of Friday will be devoted to the general topic, "The teacher and his or her relation to the various community enterprises," such as the building of homes, business enterprises, farming and other industries of community interest. On Friday afternoon the sectional meetings will report to the general meeting and close with the business session. Friday evening will also be given up to addresses from distinguished speakers. As has been true in past years, we will have with us several distinguished persons who not only will give talks during the various exercises each day, but will make addresses on Thursday and Friday evenings. Among those who will be present are Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, Tenn.; Dr. W. P. Thirkeld, President of Howard University, Washington, D.C. It is our hope that the closing address on Friday evening will be given by Dr. Booker T. Washington. Besides addresses of distinguished persons named above, there will be special visits to the Oakwood Industrial School, to the A. and M. College, at Normal, Ala., of which Prof. Buchanan is President. To the Mammoth Springs, in the immediate vicinity of Huntsville. A visit may also be made to Monte Sano and the Extensive Nurseries. Prof. Buchanan is making special arrangements with the railroads to have pleasant and quick conveyances to the A. and M. College and return. Entertainments to teachers will be free, provided each teacher writes in advance, to Miss B. L. Martin, Secretary of Local Committee, 217 Brown street, Huntsville, Ala., stating definitely that he or she plans to be present The same as in past years, breakfast and dinner will be served at the place where each person is stopping. Noon-luncheon will be served free at the place of meeting. The complete programme will be sent out the first of March, or earlier. Correspondence is solicited. All persons should leave home in time to reach Huntsville by Wednesday afternoon, so as to be ready for the opening meeting Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. Huntsville may be reached from the south by way of the L. & N. Railway to Decatur, from thence on the Southern to Huntsville. Delegates from places southeast will very likely go by way of the N. C. and St. L. Railway. From the west they will go over the Southern Railroad. A very low round trip rate has been granted on all railroads leading into Huntsville. Tickets will be on sale April 11, 12, 13th, good to return up to and including April 18th. This is a round trip ticket, not on the certificate plan.

This train will go through to Huntsville without change. All delegates who are in the vicinity of Birmingham or who must pass through Birmingham, are asked to reach Birmingham by early Wednesday morning so as to join the special train. We must make certain guarantees in order to have this train, and we urge every teacher to join us so as to meet the guarantee of the Company. The Corresponding Secretary will be glad to answer any communications with regard to the special train arrangements or rates. The following is a letter which Mr. Willingham has sent out to the colored teachers of Alabama Department of Education. Department of Education Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 19, 1911. To the Colored Teachers of Alabama: To the Colored Teachers of Alabama: The colored teachers of the State are earnestly urged to attend the annual meeting of the Alabama State Teachers' Association, which is held this year in Huntsville, on the 12, 13 and 14th of April. The county boards of education will be urged by this department, to allow as time taught, the days spent by teachers in attending this association, held for the improvement of the colored teachers. The County and City Superintendent will, no doubt, co-operate with us this year as in past years. Our enrollment this year should run above the thousand mark. We lacked a few of reaching the thousand mark last year, but with the already activity of officers and various persons, who are interested in our school work, we should run far above last year in the number who will attend. It is interesting to note that during the above mentioned meeting all graduates and ex-students of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal will be entertained at Normal. Special arrangements have been made to have trains run back and forth on the N, C, & St. L. to accommodate these teachers. All teachers except those who are graduates or ex-students of Normal should write Prof. H. C. Binford, Jr., of Huntsville, for accommodations. All normalites should write President Buchanan as soon as they make up their minds to be present. Huntsville is making elaborate preparations for the entertainment of the teachers and Normal is doing likewise, and the prospects are bright for one of the largest and most helpful meetings the association has ever held. MAYOR HOWSE RESCUES FIRST VICTIM. His Work Was Commended by Those Who Watched Him. Mayor Howse was much commended yesterday for the brave manner in which he aided in rescuing the dead and injured.

After six dead and many injured had been carried from the ruins, Mayor Howse directed his attention to the loose bricks and timbers hanging from the front and division wall. The first man rescued was brought by Mayor Howse. His Honor was seen to dive into the basement as if guided by the groans of some unfortunate man who was near at hand. It soon proved that he was correct, for in a few minutes Mayor Howse came out with one of the Negro workmen in his arms. DICKSON NOTES.

D. professor of pathology and materia medica, on his famous trio, Women, Wine and Whist at the auditorium. In his masterful manner he pointed out the indifferences of women which act dangerously against the development of proper womanhood. On the other hand he staged facts in favor of them. He paid special tribute to mothers, whose duties are not at the polls and public places, but in the home, where, by her tender voice, sweet smile and soft touch, she may shape the life of her son and beautify her surroundings. He said, in the beginning it was intended that there should be three in everything. In the spiritual sense there are Father, Son and Holy Ghost; in the higher developments we have the intellectual, moral and physical; in the universe we have the sun, moon and stars, and in a typical home are seen father, mother and child. Hence my threefold subject, "Women, Wine and Whist." The doctor said wine is the greatest antagonist that has entered the spiritual, moral and physical care of man, thus causing it to be a menace to society. He said whist is playing practically the same part, not that the innocent beginner intends to be harmful in his first attempt, but out of the well-meaning start results the dangerous end. The Y. M. C. A. has been doubly blessed in securing such strong and great thinkers—men with large conceptions, whose intentions are directed toward the eradication of some of the well-meant social evils that surround us. The university sermon by Bishop Tyree was a vigorous attempt to overthrow deception and develop true spirits and clean bodies. His text was taken from Eph. 6:7. "Be not deceived; God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap." The Bishop urged upon the necessity of being honest in all their dealings, and especially he said, "To you men who are soon to leave this institution, be honest in your dealings with your brother in ignorance, and as you depart into the various parts of the country, may you take the name of Jesus with you." Dr. Daniel H. Williams is with us with his usual storehouse of knowledge. He brings also several new thoughts that have not yet been entered into the texts but are in practical use in the advancement of the surgical science. We are delighted to have this distinguished authority with us. The hospital is now filled with patients from this and other states brought to the great clinic. The physicians present at the clinic are Drs. O. D. Porter, Bowling Green, Ky., 1894; E. W. Irving, Memphis, Tenn., 1897; S. R. Gholston, Richmond, Ky., 1903; S. H. George, Paducah, Ky., '07; U. S. Porter, Russellville, Ky., '07; J. R. Hickman, Murfreesboro, Tenn., '08; B. F. Fulton, Greenville, Miss., '01. Dr. Williams is assisted by Drs. Boyd, Stewart, Wilson, Hale, Noel, McMillan and George, Mr. J. Q. Taylor, of the senior class, anesthetist DAVIDSON COUNTY TEACHERS The Davidson county colored teachers he'd their regular monthly meeting at the courthouse. The president opened the meeting on time. The feature of the meeting was the singing of the Mt. Zion Quartett, under the leadership of Prof. W. R. Davis. They rendered several beautiful selections which completely captivated the institute. Rev. W. T. Johnson, of Clark Memorial Chapel was present and gave an interesting talk. Among the many good thoughts he endeavored to impress upon the minds of the teachers was the necessity of unity between teacher and preacher. He asked, "Do we realize the world in which we live?" He emphasized the fact that the teacher should recognize the importance of the work to which he has been called. The matter of having a state institute was then discussed, and by motion of Prof. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1911. W. P. Rose, it was decided to have a committee wait on the State Superintendent and ask him for a state institute in Nashville. The County Superintendent was present for a few minutes and enlivened the teachers very much along the line of their work. ARLINGTON NOTES. Rev. Ledford, pastor of the A. M. E.

Ladies' Aid Society First Baptist Church. The Ladies' Aid Society of the First Baptist Church met at the church Monday. March 13, with Mrs. A. B. Berry, acting president. After devotion and a short business session, we adjourned to meet at the residence of Mrs. Cora Hall, on Jefferson street, Monday night, March 20. We present to our readers to-day the likeness of Dr. W. J. ASTRAPP, of South Pittsburg, Tenn., who is a native of Mississippi. The doctor after graduating from the public school entered the Oakwood Industrial Academy of Huntsville, Ala.; finishing there, he went to Battle Creek College, at Battle Creek, Mich., where he graduated with the degree [Name] DR. W. J. ATRAPP. of Bachelor of Pedagogics. While at Battle Creek he entered the famous Sanitarium of that place, working his way through as a student of Hydropathy. Leaving here, he turned his attention to medicine, entering Meharry Medical College at Nashville, graduating with honors in 1908. Locating in South Pittsburg, he at once took a front rank in his profession. He is now devising a series of plain and concave mirrors with which to experiment with radium energy. This he says will be an advance in therapeutics for obstinate skin diseases. A large and up-to-now drug store will --- soon be in evidence through his efforts. The doctor is a race man, doing all he can for their moral betterment. He is a busy man, but always takes time to do a charitable deed. He delights in church and Sunday school work, often being in demand for lectures and addresses at home and abroad. He is Grand Trustee of the Brothers and Sisters of Honor; Master of Exchequer Eureka Lodge No. 14, K. of P., and Assistant Secretary of the State Medical Association. Dr. Astrapp is universally esteemed by both black and white. A CARD OF THANKS.

FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1911. The Petition Not Ours. A petition is befng circulated through the city asking Negro voters to sign it as a memorial to the Legislature to rostrain them from voting for the passage of the Nashville Charter bill over the Governor's veto. The Negroes of Nashville are not a part of the factional fight among the Democrats. The opposition to the bill is an echo from that fight. It is unfair to ask Negroes to join in the fight. We need peace and resent from wrangling, and it is better to have some voters out of the realm of bickerings. We advise the Negro voters of this city to have nothing to do with the Charter Bili, one way or the other. Napier Banquet. On Friday night, the tenth of this month, the citizens of Nashville, the State of Tennessee and from other states assembled in Odd Fellows Auditorium to do honor to a fellow-citizen. It is acknowledged by all who were present to have been a grand affair. It truly was a grand occasion. The beauty of the flowers and decorations were to be admired, and the social mingling to be enjoyed, but above all was the man to whom honor was being done. The character of the man stands out in bold relief above every bouquet that can be thrown at him or compliments paid to him. Hon. James Carroll Napier was born in Davidson County, Tennessee. He spent his boyhood days here; after reaching the years of his majority he has been content to remain among the people where he grow up; and after a life of toil and suffering, the head of the Nation decided to honor him for his faithfulness. When he is about to leave, his friends assemble to express to the world their appreciation of the man the nation has honored. The mere fact of meeting with a number of friends to partake of a sumptuous repast is a matter of little moment, but on Friday night last the guests around the festal board in Odd Fellow Auditorium were there for a higher and nobler purpose; every flower's beauty and fragrance that appealed to the human heart; every piece of linen that immaculated the tables; every piece of china and silver that responded to the touch of human hands; every light that shed forth its sun-like rays; every flag and piece of bunting that inspired the assemblage with patriotism and every heart that throbbed with happy expectations—each and every one attested to the noble character of the man who has lived the life among his fellowmen that is worthy of emulation. Nashville, Tennessee, and the country at large wish Register Napier well, and hope for him many years of usefulness to his people and his country. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1911. The Burford Killing. When Z. T. Terry shot down Lawson Burford on the tenth of this month he committed a crime as brutal and as cowardly as any man has ever committed. It does not seem reasonable that two men could be employed at the same residence a whole month and engaged in employment that threw them both into positions to come in contact with each other could possibly be strangers. If Terry were a real watchman he was compelled to see Burford, who was a chauffeur, which necessitated his going and coming at all hours of the night. From the information in hand it looks to be a case of premeditated murder. Young Burford was a man of excellent qualities. His employer's wife, Mrs. Cole, speaks in the highest terms of him. Terry shot down an honest, hard-working young man in the prime of life, without provocation, and deserves to be punished to the full extent of the law. Relief Fund. The catastrophe that happened Wednesday in the ruins of the J. H. Fall building is a deplorable occurrence. Men who left their families and friends well and hearty in the morning were, when the noon hour came, covered under tons of brick and timbers, many of them mangled beyond recognition. At one morgue there were eight bodies at one time, at another two, and they presented a ghastly sight. The undertakers were dressing them as best they could, but to little effect. It does seem that the frequency with which these calamities occur would serve as a precaution, but men become careless and forgetful of the past, and at an unexpected moment scores of human beings are hurled into eternity. The Building Inspector should have insisted that those walls be dynamited. But he, too, grew careless and was slack in his duty. He could have demanded that nobody be allowed in the ruins until he was absolutely certain that it was safe to work there. But no amount of fault-finding will restore these men to life and the duty of all is now to do whatever can be done for the relief of the suffering. The Globe suggests that a fund be taken up, and will start such a fund with a subscription of $25.00. We will be glad to receive any amount that may be given and will publish a full list of all donors in our next issue. We would further suggest that all money coming to our office be turned over to the committee for distribution. Mayor Howse has challenged Major Stahlman to a race for the office of Mayor of this city. The Major has tried for the office before and will never try again. The meeting held at St. Paul A. M. E. Church last Tuesday night bids fair to result in much good. The redemption of the young people should appeal to all. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. NEW REGISTER OF THE TREASURY. Some weeks ago President Taft nominated J. C. Napier, a colored lawyer of Nashville, as Register of the Treasury. At the time we commented on the nomination favorably, and now the Senate has confirmed the nomination, every Southern member voting for it. Napier is almost white; in fact he would be taken for a white man by anyone who did not know of his racial taint. But he never attempted to deceive anyone, and always freely acknowledged the fact that he had Negro blood in his veins. He is a fine looking man; a splendid specimen of manhood; a good lawyer and respected by all classes of citizens. The News Banner most heartily approves of his appointment and commends the Southern senators for their action in voting for his confirmation. We believe in encouraging any and all good citizens, regardless of "race color or previous condition of servitude."—Mustreesboro News Banner WELL?

The Globe is decidedly one [Name] REV. HENRY A. BOYD, Secretary Napier Banquet Committees. of the most interesting exchanges that we receive. If every colored voter in the state would subscribe to it no doubt the race would be advanced more rapidly in point of morality and education than any amount of demagogic ranting could ever do for them. —Murfreesboro News-Banner.

As I am expected to speak of Mr. Napier as a politician it may be well for us to have some definite idea of the meaning of politics. A distinguished scholar once defined politics as present history and history as past politics. The vitreolic John J. Ingalls describes politics as the metaphysics of force, in which none but the strenuous may hope to play a part. Webster, however, says politics is that part of ethics which has to do with the regulation and government of a nation or state. The defense of its existence and rights against foreign control and conquest, the augmentation of its strength and resources, and the protection of its citizens in their rights, with the preservation and improvement of their morals. From this conception it will be seen that politics is the chief concern of man in his associate relation and conditions, and in all the other modes of activity whether economic, industrial, educational or social. There is another derivative, secondary meaning of the word politics, which is the management of a political party and the advancement of its candidates to office. One is the science of government, while the other is the art of partisan policy and manipulation. In a country like ours where the functions of the government are conducted through partisan organizations, the secondary meaning obscures the other in the popular estimation. The vast majority have no conception of the word aside from party contentions and the procurement of office, and many public men do not like to be called a politician. In no sense of the secondary meaning of the word was Mr. Napier a politician. His conception of the essential functions and purposes of government has ever been broad and liberal. His political efforts were ever to help regulate governmental affairs upon the principles or right and justice, and to secure to all citizens protection in all of their rights and the preservation and improvement of their morals. His leadership was won and held by his merit. His services as a member of the State Republican Executive Committee all these years were rendered for the promotion of his party upon the principles of justice and right. I have been with him in nearly every State Convention of his party for the last twenty years, and though sometimes factional passion almost detroned judgment and threatened disruption, I never knew him to seek an unfair advantage of a fee. He never shunned or avoided a political fight, but his were always fair, open and honorable battles. He never stooped to take an unfair advantage, and would never tolerate a trick or subterfuge to carry his point. He was less active always in the interest of himself than in that of his party on his friends. He is probably the only man of our-race who has represented the state-at-large in a Republican National Convention. His consistent, manly and honorable course has always stamped him as the statesman rather than the politician. His services to his party and people have been long and faithful, and should have long ago been recognized in a more substantial way. He has won many political honors, and has worn every one with honor and credit to himself and the entire race. His battles for his party and his people have been many and severe. He has sometimes wielded the club of Hercules wreathed in roses, and used the iron hand mailed in silk. He has never sacrificed principle for policy. His unquestioned integrity, his loyalty and devotion to duty have won for him the confidence, respect and esteem of political friends and foes alike. His leadership has never been eratic or revolutionary, but always safe and sane. Where Napier leads it NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1911. is always safe to follow. I have known him to successfully manage political questions out of which race friction would grow with the diplomacy of a Tallyrand and bring them to a happy end. He was ever tolerant of those who differed from him, and respected their views. Always considerate of others it was but natural for him with his fitness and ability to become a leader in politics as he has always been in other spheres. In politics he soon grew beyond the limits of his home city, and became the leader of his people in the State, and during the years he has held such leadership, it was a pleasure to recognize it, for none could have won it more worthily. But his growth is not to be confined to his own state. Long ago his influence for good, both politically and otherwise, has been exected and felt all over our country. His strong forceful character has logically placed him among the national leaders of our race, and his latest appointment stamping him as such is a recognition of a public sentiment dominating the entire race. J. C. NAPIER AS COUNCILMAN. A Toast by Dr. C. V. Roman. "A simple rose to the living Is more than sumptuous wreaths to the dead." To estimate correctly a man's conduct in a given crisis we must know the man—his character, capabilities and opportunities. We reason mostly by relativity; and comparison is our highway to conclusion. We commend or condemn by comparison. This is an open sesame to injustice unless we are careful, for characters are like fractions: they must be reduced to a common denominator before accurate comparison can be made. Duty Faithfully Done is the common denominator of character. By this alone can men be justly compared. The man with one talent that A. B. DR. C. V. ROMAN, Who Responded to the Toast "As a City Councilman." doubles it has done as well as the man with ten when he doubles. Nature is impartial in her require- ments but partial in her gifts. She ex- acts compliance with her laws regard- less of conditions or consequences, and will burn the chubby hand of the innocent babe with the same severity that she will harden the liver of a drunkard; punishing alike the innocent absence of knowledge and the guilty abuse of its teachings. We are the children of Nature and have learned injustice from our mother. Cultivation cures or intensifies this hereditary tendency according as we follow the tutelage of our Father, God, or our step-father, the devil. Even-handed justice is the finest and rarest product of civilization. Character is the resultant from the interaction of the forces of heredity and environment. Ignorance or disregard of these fundamental principles has frequently disappointed the multitudes and wrecked many a promising career. Herein lies the explanation of the usual failure of class or race representatives to meet the expectations of their constituents, or realize their own ambitions. If they obey these laws, they become as other men; and their special mission is merged into the general welfare. If they disregard [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. Who responded to the Toast "As a Lawyer." these laws, they simply make themselves ridiculous, or fail, or maybe both. Current history teams with illustrations. The wave of populism some years ago threw many special representatives into state and national legislative balls. They came as the special emissaries of Justice to right the People's wrongs. But they became as other men or dropped out of sight. In Kansas, Simpson's sockless feet and Pfeffer's veneral beard sought in vain to circumvent these laws. The erratic learning of Donnelly in Minnesota, and the voluminous eloquence of Watson in Georgia were likewise unavailing. The one is scarcely a memory now, and the other is simply "a voice crying in the wilderness" of popular neglect. African slavery disappeared in this country when the general good demanded its abolition; and not in response to the special pleading of the anti-slavery representatives; though for self-abandonment, purity of motives and personal courage no band of special pleaders has ever surpassed, if indeed equaled, the anti-bellum abolitionists. Ireland's special representatives in the British Parliament were unable to obtain remedial legislation; notwithstanding the masterful eloquence of O'Connel and the unsurpassed leadership of Parnell. It finally comes, even midst Irish bickerings, when the general welfare demands it. So it will be with our citizen's rights. When we can convince the majority of the people that the general welfare will be conserved by our complete enfranchisement as citizens—then, and not till then, will it come. To measure justly a man's career, either in city council or as register of the United States treasury, or as anything else, we must answer two questions: 1. What did heredity and environment do for him? 2. How did he use his powers and opportunities for the general welfare? opportunities for the general welfare: Our guest, like most of the older people of our race in this country, was born in that subcellar of human society—Slavery. Slavery, however, is an apparently necessary stage in the evolution of civilization. Our guest was destined to sound every note in the scale of human experience—from the sub-do of slavery to the high G of wealth and official position. Heredity made him a slave, but environment modified its rigors. That a slave should reach honorable old age and distinguished official position while maintaining his residence, not only in the same state, but in the very county where he and his parents were born and reared, shows an hereditary solidity of character as well as an adaptability to a favorable environment. The tide of heredity and the wind of environment conjoined their efforts to waft the argosy of our friend into the haven of prosperity. As a city councilman, how did he use his powers and opportunities for the public weal? His usefulness to his race must be measured by his contributions to the general welfare. We serve our race best when we serve our country best. It is to Mr. Napier's credit that in the city council he was a citizen as well as a Negro. The measures with which he was connected were for the good of Nshillva, as well as for the benezt of the Negro race. The building of Pearl in School in South Nashville, and Meigs school in East Nashville, the establishment of a high school department for colored people, the placing of colored teachers in charge of colored children and the creation of colored fire companies are measures of public good that reflect credit upon Mr. Napier as councilman for Nashville, as well as the special representative of his own people. I vote J. C. Napier, Councilman, a success; and what J. C. Napier, Councilman, was, J. C. Napfer, Registrar of the United States Treasury, will be. APPOINTMENT FROM AN ALABAMA STANDPOINT. Toast of Hon. H. V. Cashin, of Decatur, Ala. Mr. Toastmaster: Twenty-five years ago I was happy to be present at the Maxwell House in this city when the distinguished gentleman you are honoring this evening was introducing a number of colored citizens of Nashville, including his father, to Charles Dudley Warner, the famous American editor and author. As he presented the members of the party Mr. Napier would refer, respectively, to the value of the property acquired or to some creditable act performed by each. Introducing his father, however, Mr. Napier re marked that he did not consider it becoming in himself to allude to what his father may have accomplished or to the wealth he may have amassed; Mr. Warner immediately responded: "Your father is rich in having a son as you"—a most graceful compliment—and I tender the same to you, that Tennessee is rich in the possession of such a son, and Alabama shares a just pride and pleasure with you that President Taft has recognized the eminent abilities, high character and general acceptability of this most worthy Tennessee. In his hitherto limited sphere James C. Napier has been of wondrous usefulness and encouragement of the youth of his race in state and nation; his examples, as we have found them recorded in the Nashville press and we have come under their influence, have been whole some; as a husband he has been a model; as a citizen he has proved ideal; as a friend he has been true constant and full of faith; he is never absent from any movement looking to the amelioration of the mental, moral or material condition of his race; he M. PROF. W. S. THOMPSON, Who Responded to the Toast "As President of the Tennessee Colored Fair Association." has given his race a wise, lofty and noble interpretation of the politician; with quiet dignity and unwavering firmness he has ever advocated the cultivation of friendly relations between the races but never upon terms or conditions dishonoring to either. Distance may lend "enchantment to the view, And clothe the mountains in its azure hue." and great men not infrequently grow small as we approach them, but with James C. Napier proximity has never diminished the grandeur of his proportions, on the contrary, he grows upon us and we constantly find in him new and nobler qualities. Alabamians, in common with all parts of the nation, regard him as a superior man, a character prophetic of the possibilities of his race; they regard the appointment as the most popular of its kind made by any administration during the past quarter-century and as one of the most valuable assets of the Republican party in its relation to the colored voter. 5 As the obligations of an individual lifted into power enhance with the increased strength and capacity for good so will James C. Napler set new standards of excellence in his new relation. And just as an individual, who acknowledges his duty to his fellows, listens to the call of Christian charity and strives to shape his deeds for the good of the many as well as himself, so must a nation live its relative life that all the world beside, and especially its own people, are happier and better conditioned for its being. And after all that may be said a nation is but a composite of its people; most especially must it be true of a nation like ours where the people make their laws, engraft their sympathies and purposes on the public acts; where their opinion is the supremaex. No man in public life seems to me to have more thoroughly and accurately interpreted the spirit of the American public than James C. Napler; he has unremittingly indicated DDD Who Responded to the Toast "As a Financier." Who Responded to the Toast "As a Financier." his confidence in a transcendent spirit of right and justice as deeply resident in the people of this nation, and that sporadic cruelties and gross injustice do not have their basis in the grand national sense of right which permeates the masses all over the land. Such a broad, humane and lofty character cannot be honored by an appointment to office; it sheds lustre on the office. But Alabamaians who for thirty years have sent their children to the various educational institutions of learning in your city are especially grateful for the uniform kindness, courtesy and generous consideration their children have received at the hands of this courteous gentleman and his estimable wife.

Napier fer about fit teen years. Seven years of this time I saw him as a financier ai iong range, but for the past eight years I have had an opportunity to investigate his abi- lity and his integrity personally at close range. The best lexicographer, Burke, defines a financier as follows: “One charged with the administration of finance; an officer who administers the public revenue; one skilled in finan- cial operations; one acquainted with money matters,” Wih these defi- tions before me, I beg to give it as my opinion that the present adminis- tration of the United States Govern- ment has made no mistake in its se- Jection of our distinguished townsman, J, C. Napier, as its financier, He has demonstrated his ability as 2 financier in many ways: First, he has demonstrated it in the adminis- trailon of his own financial affairs.

He has upheld that honest integrity of purpose, using his keen financial foresight in such a way that all of bis accumulations are considered hon- estly and hard earned by careful fru- gality in life's journey. Secondly, he has demonstrated he- yond a question of doubt not only his ability of financiering for personal agerandizement, but has extended his financiering ability to the aid and com- fort of his neighbors and fellow citi- zens.

The records of our proud city will show many wise finan- cial resolutions promulgated from the fertile, financial brafn of this, our fel- low townsman, Time has proven a fortune-teller, and to-day many of our beautiful academized strects, paved side walks, towering school edifices, ample fize protection and accomoda- tive market facilities bespeak the fi- nancial wisdom and foresight of this born financier. Yes, scores of ably equipped Negro school teachers and thousands of happy school children tramp to and frodaily to these magnif- Teont school batldings and sing pratses to his memory. Might I say tifat even the State of Tennessee has felt the need of his financial advice, and for years the Republican Party of the State of Tennessee has found it need- ful to keep him in thei Executive Council to council with and advise for both the political and financial management of the State Gcvernment. The Negro citizens of the State of Tennessee in general, of Davidson County and the City of Nashville in farticular, might well attribute to him the pious homage Daniel Webster paid to Alexander Hamilton in the metaphor of ‘God appearing to Moses, or of Jesus raising Lazarus: “He smote the rock of the Negzo resources | ond abundant streams of revenue gushed forth, He touched the dead corpse of their public credit and four Negro banks sprang upon their feet and walked to success. Yes, the fabled birth of Minerva from the brain of Jove was hardly more sudden or more perfect than the financial system of the OneCent Savings Bank as it bursteq forth from the conception of J. C. Napier.” Bight years ago when to talk of a Negro banking institution anywhere in the State of Tennessee, and espe- cially in the city of Nashville, was to meet the scornful, snarling reply, “Remember the Freedman’s Savings Bank and the thousands of dollars maliciously squandered by bad finan- ciers.” But, this natural born finan- cial genius, undaunted in his courage, unfaltering in his faith, unwavering in his determination for the uplift of the financial reputation of his race, gathered with a bake-’s dozen of his Negro fellow citizens who organized a banking institution and he became the custodian of their widows’ mites and has skillfully yet earnestly managed it as the custodian and cashier. The institution has proyen a helper and blessing not only to the Negroes of the city of Nashville, but the entire state of Tennessee. So successful has been its operation that within the last eight years something over four mil- lion dollars have passed through and have been trusted into the custody of this bank without the loss, misappro- priation or mismanagement of a sin- gle dollar, causing three other banks to be organized in this state, and to-night, as he departs from rome hae’ 5 ee | oi cp — ; | we mh | wer 4 Be a: | fee Sait | MR.

But I come simply to tell you of this model philanthropic lady as I know her, During the past eight years I have been intimately as- sociated with Mrs. Napier. [ can say and say truly, she is to my mind, a model woman and a true philanthro- pist. During these years in which | have been associated with Mrs. Napier 1 have never known her to turn aside from helping the poorest individual, who needed material help; or to with- hold anything she could do of service to others, Each day between the door bell and the phone, it is no incessant interruption, and many of these calls are for help. Sometimes it is a call for her time to listen to the reading of an article by an author, or a young woman’s essay, or a friend claims the time to tell her woes or joys. She gives he: time—her precious time— like the merciful Father gives the rain. And the real beauty of her work is, she is entirely unconscious of the good she accomplishes at these inter- ruptions As a club weman, for real work, she stands second to none. She is president of the Day Home Club, and through her leadership that club has accomplished more genuine, material work among the poor people than any other club in the city, Incident after incident crowds upon my mind, of the many individual acts of the true philanthropist; among them, one that few people (know is, Story of the girl who married. Then to my mind I see her little adopted daughter, into whose life sne has infuseq so much brightness and happiness; and whom she has made know that the mind is the real thing that counts in life; and a more intel- lectual—I might say a more brilliant and beautiful character you cannot find, than in the person of this youag girl. Mrs. Napier’s list of friends are found in all walks of life, and many hearts will be sad at her going. Among them, I add my personal tes- timony as to what her friendship has meant to me. If I have accomplished anything in my efforts here; if I have had any success in my work (and I have had a little), I owe a large share of it to my good friend, Mrs. Napier. Many times I have been discouraged and tired out; I have gone and poured out my grievance to her and have al- ways left her betier for the going. And now my good friend, Mrs. Napier, if I have seemed to weigh with a light weight all your friendship has meant ta me, let me amend for it now by de- claring here before our friends, you have been my greatest inspiration. I have never started anything where the cause was a worthy one but that you have stretched forth your hand, your influence to help me. Only a few days ago when | told her I could not get any one to furnish the Mater- nity Ward at the new Hubbard Hospi- tal, even though her family had made a generous donation, she gave fifty dollars of her own money to furnish this ward, and in a hundred otier ways she has helped me in this club. Have no fear that time will cause ihe gratitude I bear you to lessen, Perhaps there was no, place where Mrs, Napier appeared to better advan- tage than in her home. As a model woman, an idea! housekeeper, she. is excelled by none. System and order in her home is the first law. As a model wife, I know no woman her equal—and, if any one here felt in- clined to dispute me, I have a few real facts to offer in rebuttal. first, she stops everything, regardless how full the day may be, and listens to her good husband read the newspaper through—matters not how dry or long the political speech is, she discusses this with her hushand and when every fota of the paper has been peruse! she sends him off to the office happy for the day.

Aimi Martin says, “If we wish to know the political and moral condi- tion of a state, we must ask what rank women hold in it.” This is true nov only of a state, but of a race, It is with peculiar pleasure that T drink a toast tonight to a woman who 80 thoroughly represents all the good qualities and the possibilities of the race to which she belongs. We wish for a little while to talk of her as “A Model Woman.” Now, our dic- tionaries tell us that a model is a pat- tern, an example, something to be [gonleds So a model woman must be one who is a pattern or an example for other women; one whose utter- ances and actions are worthy to be co- pied by her observing sisters, There are two classes of people who continually judge us; the inmates of our home and those with whom we come in contact in public life. With- cut doubt, according to God’s sacred law as well as the surroundings of man, the sphere of woman lies in the home. It is there that the daily inter- course with the members of her fam- ily brings out the strength and sweet- ness of her character. It is there that the husband, tried by contact with the selfish spirit, often manifests in his daily routine, seeks the coun- sel of his wife and is helped and strengthened thereby. It is there that the youth and maiden are taught habits of obedience that last not only through childhood, but during their entire lives. She ministers to the wants of her family, cares for them, in sickness, soothes them in sorrow, encourages them when downcast, for- tifies them for the battle of life There are some women who consider their home life not only a duty, but a pleasure, and find within its walls love and protection. All those who have at any time enjoyed the hospi- tality of Mrs. Nettie Langston Napier know that she is a woman of this kind. Indeed, her home has not only been a blessing to her family, but it has been a refuge for the distressed. The sick, the afflicted, either in body or mind, if he had any claims upon this woman, was sure to find solace within this home. Society is so con- ‘stituted, however, that woman’s influ- ence cannot be confined to her home life. In the social circle, in the church, in business, and at the present time, even in politics, we find woman almost an indispensable element. With grace and dignity our friend, Mrs. Napiez, has been a lexder in the social circle of Nashville since her advent here as a bride. The culture and refinement of her home have left their impress upon all who have been within its walls. In the entertain- ment of the “stranger within our gates,” she ‘has always been among the first. As a factor in the life of the young people, she has always been prominent. Almost immediately after Mrs. Napier became a citizen of our beloved city, she united with Howard Chapel. I remember well at that time, that the congregation was very small and that public sentiment was not at all favorable to the building up of that church. With unwavering faith and with dauntless courage the subject of this toast laboved for the upbuilding of work so dear to her heart. In every way within her power she sought to interest the public, and with the faithful few who then com- Fa ae 4 Doe ee eau) ye Se BN Asa nck) Seer At A ot a Ray gee Mahe PROF. S. P.

W. H. McGAVOCK, Member of Printing Committee. posed the membership, she has lived to enjoy the fruition of her labors. Whenever one speaks of J. C. Napier as a successful business man, there is always before the mind the picture of a smiling woman at his side. Who does not remember with pleasure the sight of our friend sitting at the close of banking hours in the Penny Savings Bank, assisting in any possible way to successfully close the business of the day? Although Mrs. Napier has not joined the ranks of the suffragettes, she has efficiently molded political sentiment through her husband. To many of us, this is the truly womanly way. Right royally has she walked therein. So, tonight, I propose a toast to this woman, a toast couched in the words of another: I propose this toast "in the life giving water—pure as her chastity, clear as her institutions, bright as her smiles, sparkling as the laughter on her eyes, cheering as her consolation, strong and sustaining as her love—in the crystal water I would drink to her that she would remain queen regent to the empire she has already won, grounded deep as the universe in love; built upon and exercised in the home and hearts of the world; I would drink to her, the full blown flower of creation's morning of which man was but the bud and blossom; to her who in childhood clasps our hands, and teaches us to lisp the first sweet prayer to the Great-All-Father; who comes to us in youth with good counsel and advice, who in manhood meets heart yearnings with the faithfulness of conjugal love, and whose hand, when our feet go down in the shadow, will gently smooth the rough pillow of death as only she can; to her who is the flower of flowers, the pearl of pearls; God's latest, best and brightest gift to man—The Model Woman, Mrs. J.

It would give me great pleasure indeed if I could arrange to be present and testify my high appreciation of the distinguished honor which has come to Mr. Napier. I think colored people will rejoice generally that so worthy a representative of the race has been thus honored.

I sincerely thank you many times for the high mark of courtesy you have shown us. It will not be soon forgotten. In receiving this compliment from one who has been called to such a high position in life, I consider that it adds fifty per cent to my appreciation of the success which has come to you. Even though I am so far away under different flags, I feel that you are the sponsor for fourteen millions of interested spectators. I further praise you for serving your people in the prime of your life, since what concerns you there concerns us here. It is the call of the blood, and when your useful days are ended, may the blessings of St. Matthew, who toiled in the vineyard to serve his people, rest upon you.

We would be delighted to be present and tender our congratulations and well wishes in person, but as we cannot, you must accept this silent method of expressions.

Both of us are most grateful to the citizens of Nashville for arranging to honor Mr. and Mrs. Napier. Yours very truly, BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. Frankfort, Ky., Mar. 9, 1911. Napier Banquet Committee, Nashville, Tenn.: For nearly a generation in the earlier history of our country, Kentucky and Tennessee were happily united in the control of the destines of this Republic. From that time to the present these states have been regarded as closely related in sentiment, in interests and in destiny. Kentucky, accordingly, offers no objections whatever to the good fortune that has recently come to one of the latter's honorable scens. We believe President Taft could not have found a safer man for the responsible position of Register of the Treasury than he will find in the person of the Honorable J. C. Napier. Indeed it seems to us in Kentucky that the President and the country are to be congratulated, rather than Mr. Napier. We are satisfied that his incumbency guarantees a wise and popular administration of the important functions of the office; a discharge of duty that will be at once a distinction to Mr. Napier himself, a credit to the race and gqod fortune to the nation. Thanking you for your courteous call to be present at banquet board, and regretting that I cannot attend, I am with good wishes and sincere regard. Yours very truly, J. T. HATHAWAY.

I regret much that it will be impossible for me to attend the banquet to be given in your honor at Odd Fellows Hall in Nashville on the 10th inst. To participate in paying you this richly deserved tribute with many who have known you all your life would be a rare privilege. To us who hold you dear, your advancement to office and honors is the least evidence of a true gentleman found so perfectly in you. That your years may be many and your star always bright is the wish of your brother, Treasury Department, Washington March 7, 1911. Chairman Napier Banquet Committee Nashville, Tenn.. Sir. I regret sincerely that official business prevents my being present at the banquet to be tendered Hon. J. C. Napier by his fellow townsmens. However, I am with you in spirit, as are all Negroes who admire the upright and capable men of the race, among whom your townsman, whom you are honoring, is one of the first. Mr. Napier's reputation is not merely a credit to the people of Nashville, it is country-wide, and a credit to all men, no matter what may be their race or color. His selection for the high office of Register of the Treasury is particularly a matter of gratification to Tennessee, but not more particularly to you than it is to the race everywhere. A man of high purpose, of splendid qualities and ripe experience and ability, he will enter upon the duties of his office with assurance to his race that the right man has been selected Nashville, Tenn., March 6, 1911. Rev. Preston Taylor, Nashville, Tenn.: Dear Brother Taylor:— I shall not be able to attend the banquet in honor of Hon. J. C. Napier, but I shall be glad to contribute $1 to help make it a success. If the $1 will be accepted, your collector may call for it. Nothing of a public nature has happened lately that has given me more real pleasure than this much deserved honor which has come to this friend of my family for many years past. Mr. Napier has been my personal friend and helper in times of need. I am certainly glad to see you at the head of this movement to honor Mr. Napier. That in itself is a guardee of its complete success. For whatever you put your hands to succeeds. Very truly, E. W. BENTON. [Name] DR. J. H. HALE, Supporter and Participant in the Napier Banquet. Boston, Mass., March 6, 1911. Mr. Dear Mr. Napier: I write to congratulate you upon your appointment as Register of the Treasury. The honor is well deserved by you and I know that you will fit into the place perfectly.

Please extend best wishes to the madam. With wishes for great success, I am, Sincerely yours, CHARLES ALEXANDER. Washington, D. C., March 8, 1911. To the Chairman of Banquet Commit- tee: Mrs. Terrell joins me in expressing regret that we cannot be present at the banquet in honor of Hon. James Carroll Napier, Register of the United States Treasury. We cannot do too much to show our appreciation of the action of the President in appointing a man of the ability and character of Mr. Napier to a lofty position in the service of the government. I am sure that the members of our race in all parts of the country feel that the distinguished office of Register of the Treasury will be filled by one of the ablest and best men, in the person of Mr. J. C. Napier, that our race has produced in all the days of its opportunity. Very truly yours, ROBERT H. TERRELL [Name] MR. R. L. MAYFIELD. Member of Reception Committee. New York, March 6, 1911. To the Committee on Banquet to the Hon. James Carroll Napier: Sirs.— It is with regre that I cannot attend the banquet to my esteemed friend, the Hon. James Carroll Napier.

Banquet Committee, Nashville, Tenn.: Gentlemen:— I join with you in spirit in sincere congratulations on the appointment of our friend, the Honorable James C. Napier, to the post of Register of the Treasury of the United States. I wish I could be present. The whole race is to be congratulated on the selection, and the President will never have cause to feel ashamed at having appointed him. What is more, Mr. Napier is always proud to have it known that he belongs to the Negro race. He draws no lines, except as to character, and is every inch a man. May all present enjoy a most pleasant evening. Sincerely yours, FRED R. MOORE Macon, Ga., March 9, 1911. Dr. E. B. Jefferson, Nashville, Tenn.: My Very Dear Sir: The invitation to attend the banquet in honor of the Hon. James C. Napier, on the 10th inst., received. We assure you, but for our inability on account of being indisposed from lagripe we would be delighted to accept with our presence and join you and the good people of Tennessee in honoring one of their worthy sons—one who is not only the just pride of his own city and state, but, on account of his ability and high moral character, his race and this country. In this appointment, the President honored the race and did well for his administration by bringing to its service this good man. Kindly tender him our congratulations and best wishes for his success. Pensacola, Fla., March 7, 1911. Hon. J. C.

(Continued from Page 1.) told of Alabama’s view of the appoint- ment. Dr. R. H. Boyd, President ot the One-Cent Savings Bank and an ardent race man, told in staunch words of Mr. Napier’s success “As a Finan- cier.” Hon, A, N. Johnson, who is al- ways a pleasing speaker, extolled the merits of Mr. Napier “As a Republi- can.” “As President of the Tennes- see Colored Fair Association,” he was spoken of by Prof. W. S, Thompson, who is principal of one of the Nash- ville city schools and a well known lodge man. An original poem by Mr. i, Thomas Turner was read at this ae Dr, R. F. Boyd told of Mr, Na- pier’s worth “As a Citizen.” Dr, F. ‘A. Stewart amused the assemblage in prophesying Mr. Napier’s future, When Mr. Napier rose to respond, 80 tcuched was he that for several, min- utes he was unable to express his deop feeling. However, in words of sincer- est appreciation of the token of re- spect accorded him, Mr. Napier made one of the most pointed responses ever listened to Mr. Napier said he had always felt that he had friends in the South. He went into a few reminis- ences. He told of an incident that happened during the war that illus- trates the friendship that has always existed between the plack and white people of the South One instance re- lated that was very pathetic and also convincing was when the Confederates were looking around for a youth to go a3 a servant in army. Young Napier had been selected for the place very much to the grief of his father. The Mayor, who at that time lived in the building now owned by the Oda Fel- lows, and right in front of where the ‘speaker Was standing, was appealed to, and he sympathized with the father of young Napier, and went with father and son to the train and told the con- ductor that J. C. Napier, then a mere ‘Loy, was entitled to go on that train. ‘Mr. Napier touched a sympathetic cord in the heart of every one preseni, and it was evident that many were con- ‘verted to the belief that it is the better part of wisdom to live in peace’ with ‘the people among whom you live. _ He complimented the committees on uniting and having one.banquet, and urged that those participating in the same would go out from that place with the determination to work for the uniting of all the people in our common cause. He said if he could have the assurance that he had con- tributed to such a union he would feel amply paid for his efforts in life, Mrs. Napier, who in this, as in all things during their happy married life, shared jointly the honors of her husband, was also toasted as a philan- thropist in a captivating speech by Dr. Josie E. Wells, In her response, Mrs. Napier dwelt fondly upon past associ- ations which haye endeared the ladies of Nashville to her, and in leaving them she carries with her the best wishes of a host of loyal friends who will hear with gladness tidings of her welfare in her childhood home. ‘At the conclusion of Mrs. Napler's remarks the quartett sang the finale and the curtain went down on the most brilliant banquet ever held in this city, Seated around the festal board were Hon, and Mrs. J.T.

B. Scott, Four- teenth avenue, North. The beauty and culture of Nashville were never more magnificently -epresented than on this occasion, The weather was ideal, and from four to nine the grand reception hall and spacious _ parlors, which were profusely decorated with palms, ferns and pink carnations, pre- sented a most lovely scene to which the elegant costumes of the ladies lent rare splendor. After the guests were presented to the honoree, they were conducted to the frappe room which opened from the reception hall and df{ning-room and was completely enclosed with red, { Y Undertaker and Embalmer 3 . ° a Courteous attention to |= am | all calls — day or night.

The decorations were in red and white, with ferns, palms and red carnations.
