NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. LITTLE BREEZE IN CO. COURT G. B. TAYLOR AND R. F. BOYD IN CLASH. Contending for Control of School. GRAVE CHARGES MADE AGAINST REV. TAYLOR-COURT VOTES IN HIS FAVOR, HOWEVER—DR. BOYD MENTIONED TO SUCCEED MR. NAPIER AS TREASURER OF THE COUNTRY APPROPRIATION—WOULD BE REQUIRED TO MAKE ITEMIZED REPORT—REV. TAYLO.. AND DR. BOYD MAKE STATEMENTS. In the Davidson County Court last Monday quite a little breeze was created over the matter of electing a treasurer of the fund appropriated by the County Court for the maintenance of the reform school for the Negro youth of the county. It seems that matters took quite a change when the Committee rendered a report. The Committee on the Colored Reform Industrial School appropriation, through Squire Cheek, recommended that the court continue the appropriation to the school as heretofore made, and also that Dr. R. F. Boyd be named as Secretary and Treasurer to succeed J. C. Napier, who has gone to Washington to take up his duties as Register of the Treasury. The report showed 14 girls and 22 boys in the colored school. The report also provides that Dr. Boyd shall make an itemized report of the expenditure of the appropriation. Squire Campbell raised the point that the court had no authority to make an appropriation to any school or other organization unless such school or other organization has a regular Board of Directors. Judge Pollard said he understood that when G. B. Taylor made application for an appropriation he had been told by Mr. Taylor that the school had been regularly organized. Dr. R. F. Boyd said he understood the school was legally organized, and while he had never served in an official capacity, incidentally he referred to the fact that he had probably given more to the institution than the court. He said he was deeply interested in making good citizens of his people. He said that he owned the farm—the old Bill Singer place—on which the school was located, and while he hadn't received any rent for the past three years, he hadn't complained much, as he knew the need of such a school for his people. He thanked the court for past appropriations and hoped the court would continue so to do. Squire Harwood said he visited the school on one occasion and the meat that was fed the children he wouldn't want a dog of his to eat. He said Taylor was not the proper person to be in charge. Squire Cage said he had visited the school and that conditions were not sanitary by any means, but that the place has since been cleaned up. Squire Hasslock said the appropriation was not for Taylor, but for this school, and if Taylor was not the proper man then he should be discharged. He said he had confidence in Dr. Boyd and believed, that if the appropriation was made the wrongs would be righted, and he favored its continuance. Squire Cochran said the reason conditions were so objectionable at New Providence was due to the fact that there was no adequate appropriation for its maintenance. Dr. B. G. Tucker, County Health Officer, said he had visited the institution at the request of Squire Cage and had found in a clean condition and the food wholesome and sufficient, the inmates with new clothes and shoes and the bedding new and clean. Rev. Taylor when seen by a Globe representative talked freely about the matter. He stated that he objected to the turn matters took in the County Court, because it was his understanding that just the reverse was to have been the case. He said Dr. Boyd had not kept faith with him which caused him to feel very aggrieved against Dr. Boyd. The statement of Rev. Taylor is not borne out by Dr. Boyd. He said in substance that members of the County Court had requested him to accept the position, and that he talked it over with Rev. Taylor and assured him that if he could do him any good he would be glad to do so and he expressed surprise that Rev. Taylor should oppose him for treasurer. The report of the committee was received and filed and the appropriation of $75 per quarter, as formerly, was made. The roll call showed 33 for and 7 against. A resolution was adopted providing for the issuance of $60,000 bonds authorized in January, and $20,00 authorized in January, and $20,000 authorized at the special session in February for the Colored State Normal School as one series. JOHN S. TROWER DEAD. Germantown, Philadelphia, Pa.—After an illness which covered a period of about two years, during which time he was not altogether disabled, but complaining mostly, John S. Trower, the wealthiest Negro in Pennsylvania and probably one of the wealthiest in the United States, passed away at his home, 5607 Main street this morning. The most notable thing in his life was his great devotion to his church and Sunday-school. He was regarded as the backbone of the Cherry JOHN S. TROWER. Street Memorial Baptist Church, Church, which is said to be the oldest free Baptist congregation in the United States. As a caterer he has served more notable dinners and parties than any other man in the United States. He prepared and served luncheons for more than fifty United States war vessels. It is said that one occasion he received $10,000 for a luncheon served. It is reported that he is worth over $1,500,000. He leaves a wife and five children. It was not known to-day just what arrangements would be made for his funeral, or when it would take place. BISHOP TYREE PRESENTED A NEW SADDLE BY TEXAS FRIENDS Bishop Tyre was the recipient of a Texas saddle from his admirers in the Lone Star State. The saddle is now on exhibition in Mr. Richard Hill's office and is being exhibited to all who call. It is of rare excellency in design and workmanship. The Bishop is now in Texas planning for the educational rally in the interest of Paul Quinn College at Waco, Texas. This will be his last spring rally before the General Conference in 1912, and he goes to make a heroic struggle to clear the school of debt. NEGRO RECRUITS. Wanted by Government to Fill Regiment To Full War Strength. Atlanta, Ga., April 4. The Twenty-fourth Infantry Regiment, Negroes, is to be recruited to full war strength before sailing for the Philippines some time next month. Instructions were received at the local recruiting station to-day from the War Department to make every effort to obtain recruits for this regiment. AD IMPRESSION FISK PRESIDENT COL. MIDNIGHT NOT TO GO THERE AGAIN PRESIDENT GATES NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE GENIAL COLONEL—BIDS HIM STEP AROUND AND HE THINKS IT BEST TO DO SO—AN INVITATIN THAT DID NOT MEAN ANYTHING—GOES TO SEE OTHER SCHOOLS AND MEETS WITH DIFFERENT TREATMENT—CANNOT UNDERSTAND. (Afro-American Ledger, April 1, '11.) Nashville, Tenn.—"Well, what do you want? What can I do for you?" These were the words of President Gates, of Fisk University, when I entered his office Friday about noon to visit the university and they almost took my breath, and when I had gotten to myself I replied: "I just want to see the school." "What is your name? Do you live here" After assuring him that I was a visitor from afar and telling him my name, then he said: "I have no time to talk to you. Sit down and go into the chapel. Take the things out of your pocket and leave them in my office, because you will have to return here for your hat." I had in my pocket Henry Allen Boyd's driving gloves and a copy of the Afro-American Ledger, and as the command came from a white man I had only to obey and put them out, and went into chapel and took my seat until it was all over, and then when I went to the office for my hat and pocket things he invited me to have dinner and called Miss Walker, a large white woman, the teacher of domestic science, and requested her to escort me over to the dining hall and tell them that I was his special guest for dinner. Although I had declined the invitation, he told her to do this and I had nothing to do but to go over. In my lifetime I have visited many schools with white presidents, yellow presidents, brown presidents, black presidents, but I have never been thus treated by one of them. I am not up on college etiquette and do not know whether or not this was the proper thing to do, but I do know I obeyed his command because he was a white man, and my duty is to obey them wherever I see them; but if it had been a colored president of a college who had thus addressed me I would have said that he was uncoath, impolite and I hardly know what else I should have said, but since it was a white man I can only say he was right. If it had been a colored president, I would have said that every man was entitled to a respectable hearing and even though busy, he could have time enough to say to a visitor be seated and ask to be excused because of the rush of business. But he could not do this because he was president of a big college, and could see only the little lump of smoke come More Contributions to the R lief Fund. More Contributions to the R lief Fund.

You are cordially invited. into his office and thought—what he thought—and, as I could not read minds, he could keep his thoughts to himself and I could only get what he expressed in words and had to take it. Well, I was an idle somebody, had nothing to do but to visit Fisk and could not expect a big, educated man to take up time with me. I tell you when I get to be an educated man I am going to make things go myself, and until then I have made up my mind to go to but few schools with white presidents. I shall not go to Fisk University again soon, and I am sure that you will not blame me. This is one of the great schools in the country for the training of our people, and I am glad indeed to say that I know many people who have graduated from the school and they love it dearly, and I am not going to hold the school responsible for the president not having time to give to an old hayseed. He is but a man and a big man at that. At New York, when I met him last summer, he invited me to visit the institution and (Continued on Page 4.) AUSTIN W. WILLIAMS DIES IN MEMPHIS Sir Austin W. Williams, 33rd degree, Deputy Inspector General of the Valley of Tennessee, Scottish Rite Masons, died in Memphis, Tennessee, his home on Sunday morning, April 2, 1911. His death was not utterly unexpected, as he has been confined since December 12, 1910, suffering with an uncontrollable complaint. A third operation was performed with the hope of saving his life, and all of these within the time of his confinement in December and the time of his final summons. He leaves a most patient wife, who was Miss Julia A. Jones, of this city, daughter of the late Lyt. Jones, Mrs. Julia Williams, with a daughter by his first wife. Miss Austinia Williams, were faithful attendants at his bedside until death: Sir Williams was fully the most prominent secret society man in Tennessee. In Masonry he had held the highest office for twenty years, being at the time of death Supreme Minister of the State, of the Supreme AUSTIN W. WILLIAMS. Council of the jurisdiction of the United States and Canada; this office is the second place of the 33rd and last degree and is only outranked by the Sovereign Commander, Milton F. Fields, of St. Louis, Mo. Sir Williams served in Tennessee, as Grand Commander of Knight Templars for five terms. He served as Grand High Priest of Royal Arch Masons three terms, was Deputy Grand Master two terms, Grand Secretary four terms and at his death Chairman of Foreign Correspondence, the most important standing committee, having to deal with all the forty-two jurisdictions outside of Tennessee. In Odd Fellowship he has served in the Grand Lodge of Tennessee about nine years, being a grand officer four years of that time. He has been active in the Past Grand Masters' Council and Patriarchie. ELECTED PRESIDENT THE NINTH SUCCESSIVE TIME. On Monday Benevolent Society No. 81 held their annual installation. The hall was crowded with members and friends to witness the ceremony. The unique feature of the installation was that for the ninth successive time M. A. W., W. Williams, was honored by the members of his order. SHOT BY DEP- UTY SHRIFF MARSHALL FRIERSON LOSES HIS LIFE Only Offense was of Crap Shooting. C. E. AUSTIN GETS HANDY WITH HIS PISTOL—TAKES LAW IN HIS OWN TANDS—KILLS MAN WHO HAD DONE NOTHING TO WARRANT IT—ALLEGATION OF SELF-DEFENS GROUNDLESS—SHOT MAN IN BACK—BALL ENTERS AT WAIST AND COMES OU UNDER COLLAR BONE—NO PROSECUTION SO FAR. Marshal Frierson was shot and killed Sunday afternoon by Deputy Sheriff C. E. Austin. It is alleged that Frierson together with others, was engaged in a game of craps when surprised by the officers. Marshal it appears broke for liberty, but did not succeed in getting out of reach of the officers handy revolver and received a bullet in his back, which went clear through his body and came out at the right clavicle. In a report in one of the daily papers, it was said that Frierson threw bucks at the officers. This is denied by those in position to know who says that Frierson was shot, while running. An autopsy was held and it was conclusively shown that Frierson was shot beehind. All who know the dead man assert that he was a peaceable, quiet and hardworking man, having been employed by the Federal Phosphate Company for the past nine years. So far the Globe has been advised no steps have been taken for the arrest of the offending sheriff. When the dead body of Frierson was examined no weapon of any kind was found. The rumor that Frierson resisted arrest is not borne out by the examination of the body of the dead man. The ball entered the back just above the waist and passed through the liver and the lungs and came out just below the collar bone, which will show that the man must have been running at great speed, and in a stooped position. He had committed no crime, the only offense against him being crap shooting. He bares the reputation of being inoffensive. His mother and wife testified to a Globe representative that he was never known to fight anybody, and the nature of the wound that proved fatal bares out their statement, for the only way the ball could have entered where it did and come out where it did would be at angle and another that set at naught entirely the charge that Frierson was resisting is the fact that he was shot in back. No steps have as yet been taken toward the prosecution of Austin and it could not be learned what the rebu BENEFIT CONCERT A SUCCESS. The benefit concert given by the Girls' Glee Club of Pearl High School, at the First Baptist Church, Wednesday evening, April 5, was a success from every standpoint. The auditorium of the church was filled to its utmost capacity with friends interested in the worthy cause for which the concert was given. This was the first effort on the part of these young ladies in an endeavor to do something towards sending one of their number to college after the High School course will have been finished, and the signal success of their first appearance before the public is encouraging to them and furnishes an incentive for greater efforts in the future. To Principal F. G. Smith and Miss Eva N. Murrell, the instructor, is due much credit for the success of the evening's entertainment, as they have given timely suggestions and helped in a material way to bring about the desired end.

Huntsville, Ala., Apr. 1. 3.-The enrollment at the Birmingham meeting of the Alabama State Teachers Association reached nearly 800. This was due in a considerable measure to the fact that Birmingham is a large center of industrial and educational activities and does within its neighborhood upwards of 200 teachers. Although Huntsville is in the northeastern corner of the state and is not nearly so easy of access as Birmingham, the outlook is bright or one of the largest Associations this year that we have yet had. Several hundred teachers have already asked for entertainment, and Huntsville has prepared to accommodate 600 outside of the 100 graduates and ex-students who will make their homes in Normal, and if a thousand come the people of Huntsville will throw wide their doors and make them welcome. The State Superintendent of Education has added his usual endorsement, and has stated that the County Board will be urged to allow as time taught the days spent by the teachers in attending this Association. Railroad Facilities. 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. & St. L. Railway. From the west they will go over the Southern Railway. Railway Rates and Arrangements. Tickets are on sale at all other points. The rate can be ascertained by inquiring of the ticket agent. Inquiry should be made early, before April first. Arrangements are being made for special coaches to leave Montgomery on Wednesday morning, April 19, attached to the L. & N. No. 2, at 9:00 o'clock. All delegates who must pass through Montgomery are urged to reach Montgomery Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning, so as to join these special car parties leaving Montgomery at 9:00 o'clock. At Birmingham these special cars together with cars made up there will form a special train leaving Birmingham at 12:30. This will be a special train, engine baggage car and coaches made up especially for the teachers, and running through via Decatur over the Southern Railway, reaching Huntsville in the afternoon. 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 this 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, Mr. J. R. E. Lee, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., will be glad to answer any communications with regard to the special train arrangements or rates. The meeting of the State Teachers' Association in Huntsville, Ala., April 12-14, will afford an excellent opportunity for the many friends and patrons of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal to visit that excellent institution. President Buchanan has arranged to have special trains run over the N., C. & St. L., so as to accommodate all who desire to see Normal. It is interesting to note that the convening of the Association in Huntsville will be the occasion for the coming together of a large number of graduates and ex-students of the Agricultural and Mechanical College for the purpose of considering the plans for the monument which they are to build above the remains of the late President William H. Councill and wife. Already pledge cards are out and upwards of $200 subscribed. This work is being pushed by Mr. Horace D. Slatter, class of 1898, and any one wishing further information regardi- ing same should address Mr. Slatter, care of A. & M. College, Normal, Ala. President Buchanan wishes the many graduates and ex-students throughout the state of Alabama and adjoining states to know that he is going to take care of all of them at Normal during the Association. Graduates and ex-students of Normal who write Prof. H. C. Binford, of Huntsville, for accommodations will be assigned to Normal, if it is known that they are from Normal. The President invites correspondence with all those who are planning to attend in order that he might know as soon as possible how many he will have to accommodate. Nearly fifty graduates have already been assigned quarters at Normal. President Buchanan says that he can accommodate upwards of 100, but the likelihood is that 200 graduates and ex-students will be on the grounds during the Association. This will be indeed a splendid re-union. There will be another large meeting of the Alumni Association Thursday, May 25, which will be the Commencement Day this year. Persons who are planning to attend should write Prof. H. C. Binford, Principal of the City Public School, Huntsville, Ala., for entertainment. All graduates and ex-students of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Normal who are planning to attend should write President Walter S. Buchanan. SOUTH PITTSBURG NOTES. The incessant downpour of rain Tuesday afternoon of this week that fell for about 24 hours since caused our town to be flooded. Cedar avenue was navigable from City High School building(white) on the south to Buchanah & Co.'s grocery on the north, considerable losses have been caused by the flood. Rev.

ANOTHER MEETING FOR ME- RIDIAN. ‘The Executive Goard of the National _ Baptist Convention Has Been Called to Meet on June 8, 1911, Selma, Ata—According to an offei- vial statement sent out to-day by Prof. R. B, Hudson, Secretary of the Na- tional Baptist Convention, who re- sides in this city, the President has issued an official call for a meeting of the program committee, commonly known as the Executive Board of the National Baptist Convention, to be held June 8, 1911, in Meridian, Miss. ‘This call, ays Prof, Hudson, is usual- ly sent out in the early part of the year at which time a program is ar- ranged for the ensuing session of their Convention, which usually meets in September. ‘The important part of the call this year appears to be that it. wiil meet at the same place and during the same time of the Sunday-School Congress of their Convention, It is presumed that this call to meet in Meridian, was issted by President Morris so that the members of the Board could take advantage of the very low round trip rate: authorized ‘on account of the Sunday-Schoool Congress. By this one call the at- tendance of the Congress will be largely augmented, as the mem- bership of this program committee lconsists of the nine officials of the National Baptist Convention and the chairmen and secretaries of the sevon bodrds operated under the Conven- tion, together with the vice-presi- dents; they have a Vice President for cach state and territorial convention in the United States Prof. Hudson figures that there are about sixty-three or four different state and territorial conventions. Some erates have as many as four dit. ferent conventions. According — to this, the official family of the Nation. al Baptist Convention, which has been called to meet in Meridian, will bring about eighty-six general officers altogether, prominent among whom from this state will be the Secretary Prof. R. B. Hudson and the Treas urer, Rev. A. J. Stokes, D. 'D., of Mont gomery, Ala. The next annual ses sion is to be held in Pittsburg, Pa. from September 13th to 19th. GIRL BABBY KIDNAPED. Saturday a three-weeks’ “old gir! tay was stolen from {ts mother, Evelina Williams, of 12 Lafay- ette street. It appears that a very tall woman of light complexion gart- ed in black and a light rain coat with cape and heavily ‘veiled called at the Williams home, and while the inmates were busily engaged with their household duties left taking the baby with her. The child was soon missed and a general search institut- ed, but without avail, At this writ- ing no trace has been found of the kidnapper and her prey. The mother of the little one ts al- most distracted. The grandfather, Rey. §. M. Williams, is ustng every effort at his command to gain some clue as to their whereabouts. The sheriff and police officers nave been notified, but as yet have reached no results, The motive of the kidnap per cannot be fathomed. It is {dle to say that the child will be held for ransom, when it {s known that ite people are not able to pay. By some it is thought that the yeiled woman was an agent cf wan dering gypsy tribes, white others hold that she had a yearning for babe of her own to cheer ker desoiate household and chose this method o| securing one. ‘A gentleman giving his name as J.P. Johnson claims to have seen thé woman and child shortly after thes left the Willams home. He sai there was nothing unusual abou them, except that the woman was ca ressing the infant very tenderly an‘ in a way which showed that she wa: yery much attached to it. The las he saw of them, he said, they crosse the Broad street bridge. Rev. 8. M Williams, the grandfather of th jchild, 1s very much agitated and de \serves the sympathy of all.

Saturday afternoon, April 1, Roger Williams baseball team administered to the Pearl High boys one of the most inglorious defeats that has been her share to experience in many a moon to the tune of 17 to 4. Long before the game started, there was seen among the Roger Williams sympathizers that old spirit of loyalty that characterized the old school many years ago on the other side. That spirit yet lives in the new school, and as the game progressed, there was a re-kindling of the ancient fires in the embers of the nucleus that yet remains. The purple and white pennants and ribbons were afloat, and the rooters were well organized and pulled off some clever stunts when the Roger boys would make a sensational play, or give the sphere a terrific swat to some remote corner of the field. The name, Pearl High, indicates that it is neither a college or a university, yet she is a serious quantity in matters of base ball if record means anything. So that to defeat her is a feat performed by but few. Buford, her premier pitcher, pitched a great game, but his support was bad and he was unsteady at times. Bill Andrews, of Roger Williams, pitched a steady game, and at the same time he received almost perfect support from his teammates. The game was interesting to the third inning, but after that it seemed rather a joke than a game of ball. Allison, catcher, Hurt, shortstop, and Buford, pitcher, deserve special mention, because they put up a game fight throughout. The features of the game were the elimination of confabs between the umpire and players, the terrific swat of George Branham in the eighth for a home-run, and the steady pitching of Bill Andrews. Score. Pearl High, 4; Roger Williams, 17; batteries, Beuford and Allison, Andrews and Pullen. The Memphis Tigers are very strong this season and are playing a good strong game. Memphis has beaten everybody so far this season. Come down some evening and watch the boys work out. They are some fast I thank you. It makes you feel good to see them at work. Mr. John White, of the Standard Giants is working hard this season to get his boys in shape for the season. They are doing pretty well so far and only want a little time to get in first class condition. Nashville this season is going to have some baseball team. Lineup of the Greenwood Giants Base Ball Team: Catchers: Haywood Rose, James Watkins; Pitchers: William Martin, Nashville, Calhoun Jennings, East Nashville, Wilburn Sublett, Nashville, Thomas Means and Ira Buford. Infield: Dady Hurt. Nashville, William Sluter, East Nashville, James Crutchfied, Lebanon, Tenn., William Kindle, Fisk. Outfield.

Come out and look them over. * * * Ira Buford, the young player from Pearl High School is young to be given a trial by Greenwood Giants. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1911 He seems to have the goods and has impressed the manager at being the find of this season. * * * * The Memphis Tigers and St. Louis Giants played a 14 inning game Sunday, 1-0 that's going some for so early in the season. * * * * This boy Crutchfield from Lebanon Tenn. seems to have 'em. Just keep your eye skinned on him. * * * * Kid Mack, the Cedar Street wonder, is willing to meet all comers at 127 pounds ringside. He has beaten all who have faced him. He is waiting for the next man. Rube Foster's Champion Lehand Giants have changed their name. They will be known this season as the American Giants and will play in the Chicago League. They are the same players and manager, but under a new name. GRADUATING EXERCISES Hendersonville, Tenn., Mar. 24. This was a noteworthy day at the Hendersonville public school closing.

The procession of students presented a brilliant scene to the audience from Nashville, Gallatin, Portland, Saundersville, Edenwold and other points. The salutatory address was delivered by Miss Willie M. Reed; the valedictory address was delivered by Henry Douglass. The subjects and the masterly way in which they were delivered showed how thoroughly the seniors had been drilled for the occasion. The applause was deafening. Miss Jones was in charge of the music which was well renedered. Rev. J. C. Fields, B. A., B. D., of Nashville, delivered the graduating address. His discourse on the Need of Competent Men for the World's Work, was eloquent and philosophical. The appreciative audience listened with attention. The music and the address with other features of the program are still the comment of the hour among many who were present. Mr. W. Fite, in the closing remarks, amused the audience in avoiding a formal address. All said it was instructive as well as entertaining. NOTABLE CHARACTERS INDULGE IN FESTIVITIES.
