NASHVILLE GLOBE. VOL. VI. PROF. WATERS IS DISMISSED BOARD TOOK ACTION MONDAY NIGHT MEETING OF BOARD VERY BUSY ONE—NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING ENGAGES MUCH OF TIME — BOARD DETERMINED THAT JOB SHALL BE DONE RIGHT — PAYROLL AND ACCOUNT ORDERED PAID—REPORT OF SUPT. KEYES READ—NIGHT SCHOOL CLOSES. Until midnight Monday night the city Board of Education remained in session, threshing out, among other things, the high school building question in several of its details. It developed that the local blue stone ordered to be used for the foundation work makes an unsatisfactory appearance to the board since the construction is begun and the board ordered the use of local white stone instead. Messrs Ittnor and Sharpe, Jr., were present, the former stating that portions of the work were so far not according to specifications and changes would be made. It will necessitate the tearing down and reconstruction of that portion of the stonework already placed above the ground line, which, however, is not much. The contractors were asked also to report as 'o the cost of using the white stone throughout the building, instead of the local blue stone. Should the change be decided upon, quite a saving will doubtless be made in the cost of the structure. Mr. Simon Lieberman asked that an agent or supervisor be employed to remain on the grounds, representing the board in the carrying out of the building specifications. Maj. E. B. Stahlman strongly objected, stating that the architects were employed for just that work, and that if a middle man were to be employed, such would Have to be done at the expense of the architects, according to the contract. Upon this phase of the subject the discussion was prolonged, lasting until the meeting was finally adjourned for another session next Monday night. When a motion prevailed to increase the building committee from four to five members, Maj. E. B. Stahlman resigned from this committee as a token of his disapproval of the change. WATERS DISMISSED. Another feature of the session was the disposition of the case of George Waters, colored teacher at Knowles school, against whom a petition had been presented to the board that Waters be dismissed. Upon a report read by Mr. E. J. Smith of the investigation committee action was taken dismissing Waters, after thirty days, he being suspended in the meantime. A pay roll of $28,684.00 and accounts aggregating $5,771.50 were ordered paid. Mr. L. Lieberman, of the Executive Committee, recommended the construction of a portable building at Cockrill school. The matter was referred to the Executive Committee with power to act. The report of Supt. J. J. Keyes was read, recommending, among other things, that a committee be appointed to have charge of the commencement exercises of the Fogg and Pearl schools to take place June 14, 15. The matter was referred to the instruction committee. SUPT. KEYES' REPORT. Supt. Keyes' report was in part as follows: Board of Education, Gentlemen: The progress of the schools for the past month has been good. The average daily attendance has improved due to the fact that many of the children who were out last month with the measles have returned to their work. The night schools closed a successful term on the evening of March 30. The progress of these schools upon the whole was fairly satisfactory. The attendance was equal to what it has NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1911 been in other years, but there has been no decided growth. I suggest that the instruction committee take up the matter of enlarging the scope of these schools, so that they may become more popular and more nearly reach the needs of the communities in which they are placed. A report amending the rules of the board was read by Mr. Smith, but action was deferred. At this juncture the case of Geo. Waters, the colored school teacher, was brought up in executive session and disposed of, according to the recommendations of a report read by Mr. Smith as stated above. GREAT EASTER EGG HUNT. Two thousand happy-hearted children in the morning of their beautiful lives, spent a day at Greenwood Park last Saturday that will be green in their memory if they live a century. Five hundred eggs had been carefully hidden on the hills, in the crevices and throughout the park, that the hunt might prove, all the more enjoyable. Children began coming to the park before noon, and by one o'clock a careful estimate placed the number at two thousand, not including the parents and many of the grownups, who came to enjoy the feast that had been prepared for the little ones who, with their laughter and glee, hunted through this beautiful park for the eggs. Greenwood has never looked so beautiful as on this occasion, the new grand stand with a seating capacity of five thousand; the fountain, which sends up its crystal spray of white, and hundreds of other amusements have added much to the park. Office men and merchants of the city were liberal in giving prizes to the management who in turn was as liberal in awarding them to the children, as will be shown from the vast number given out. The street car service was perfect and enabled many to go out who otherwise would have been compelled to remain away. List of prizes and names of prize winners will appear next week. CINCINNATI FIRM GETS BOND CONTRACT. Colored Normal Bonds Go to Seasongood and Mayer—Bid was $80,835.25 for $80,000 Twenty-five-Year 4 1-2s—Several Bldders. Upon a bid of $80,835.25 for the $80,000 of 25-year 4 1-2 per cent colored normal bonds authorized by the county court, the bonding firm of Seasongood and Mayer, of Cincinnati, was awarded the bond contract Saturday, when the bond commission of the county court opened bids it was found that ten firms were after the contract. Bids had been offered on both the 4 1-2 per cent and the 5 per cent basis. The competitor closest to the winning bidder was the firm of the Provident Savings Bank and Trust Company, of Cincinnati, which offered $80,864. This, as will be seen, is a few dollars more than the price offered by Seasongood & Mayer, but the personal representative of the latter company offered to furnish free the blank lithographed bonds in the event their bid was accepted. When this offer was made, Judge Pollard wired the other company asking if it would do the same, and the answer came in the affirmative, but a couple of hours too late. The other bids received were as follows; On a 4 1-2 per cent basis—Wm. R. Compton Co., St. Louis, $80,824; Harris Trust and Savings Bank, Chicago, $81,113; Otis and Hough, Cleveland, $80,610; Well, Roth & Co., Cincinnati, $80,080; Woodin, McNeare & Moore, Chicago, $80,480; Western German Bank, Cincinnati, $79,120, or $989 on the $1,000. On a 5 per cent basis—Wm. R. Compton Co., St. Louis, $84,070.40; Western German Bank, Cincinnati! $82,448; A. J. Hood & Co., Detroit, $81,617; John Nuveen, Chicago, $82, 608. GOOD RALLY AT MT.

ONE HUNDRED SIX GRADUATES IN CLASS FROM MEHARRY THIS YEAR Given Diplomas Last Tuesday Night. LARGE AUDIENCE WITNESSES THE EXERCISES IN RYMAN AUDITORIUM - IMPRESSIVE PROCESSIONAL MARCH—DR. C. T. WALKER DELIVERS THE ADDRESS—THE "BLACK SPURGEON" COVERS HIMSELF WITH HONOR — GIVES WHOLESOME ADVICE TO YOUNG DOCTORS. The closing exercises of Meharry Medical College at Ryman Auditorium Tuesday night were witnessed by about 6,000 people, and every one present could not but have gone away feeling inspired for having been present. Promptly at half past seven o'clock the class of one hundred and six young men and women marched down the aisle to the strains of the Processional March played by Miss Maymie E. Braden, Dean of the Musical Department of Walden University. There were graduates in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and nurse-training. After the class was seated the audience sang "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," led by the Walden Glee Club. Divine blessings were invoked, after which the young men's Glee Club sang Faust's "Soldier's Chorus." At the conclusion of the song by the Glee Club complete silence came over the vast assemblage only to break forth in deafening applause when the familiar figure of Dr. R. H. Boyd was recognized and with him a man who was recognized by some as Dr. C. T. Walker, of Augusta, Ga., who was to deliver the principal address. Dr. Hubbard presented Dr. Walker amid cheers and waving of handkerchiefs. In beginning his address, Dr. Walker first paid tribute to both the work of the school and to Dr. Hubbard, dean of the institution. "I am highly and inexpressibly gratified to be present at the commencement exercises of this grand institution, a school that has made a magnificent contribution to the elevation of my race in sending forth a noble army of men and women to relieve distress, heal miseries and to dry up tears." A tribute to Dr. Hubbard paid by the speaker was the occasion of long continued applause by the colored people. His subject was "The Physician and the People." "I have felt for many years that the entire race, of which I am a member, ought, in some tangible way, express gratitude to Dr. Hubbard for faithful service rendered our people for more than a quarter of a century. He has done service and honor, the magnitude of which eternity alone will reveal," he declared. "He is indeed a philanthropist. The greatest philanthropy is not in the large sums of money given out of his princely munificence, but the most liberal contribution an individual can give to a worthy cause is to give himself. It is the sincere prayer of my people that the great old gentleman may yet be spared many years to serve as Dean of Mehairy Medical College, and when he comes to the close of his long, useful life, like a shock of corn, fully ripe in its season, there receive from the judge of all the earth an imperishable crown of unfading luster upon his deathless brow." He referred to the true physician as a humanitarian and said that he was a great factor in God's great plan for humanity. Medical science has done much, he stated, in combatting diseases and increasing the longevity of mankind. He thought it a wonderful privilege to live in the twentieth century, as it is the century of thought, of constructive effort, commercial expansion and intelligent progress. "It is a great privilege to be identified with a race, as is ours," he declared. "We proved our loyalty during the trying days of the sixties. We have accumulated 375,000 homes, have invested $40,000,000 dollars in church property, own 200 high schools and colleges, 50 banks, 90,000 farms. There 100 HUBBARD HOSPITAL, MEHARRY MEDICAL COLLEGE. are 29,000 learning trades, more than 2,000,000 children in schools, 500 newspaper editors, 32,000 teachers, $80,000,000 in groceries and general merchandise, 3,000 contractors, 5,500 stenographers, own $500,000 worth of books in private libraries and there are nearly 2,000 physicians and surgeons and an army of preachers that no man can number." Dr. Walker said that the South was the only section of the country where barriers had not been set up to prevent a man from earning a living on account of the color of his skin, and he also stated that the colored man had more opportunities to serve his race in the period of adjustment by teaching that their future success did not depend upon conflict, but on concord and co-operation with the best white people of America. "We must become producers as well as consumers, benefactors as well as beneficiaries," he urged, "the opportunity to co-operate with the white people in the South in developing the wonderful resources in this Southland must be seized and utilized by our people. We are American citizens and we must decide to remain here, build homes, build characters, solve our problems, shape our destinies, make history and rise by our own efforts and exertions. We should maintain our racial identity and many of our racial peculiarities. Let our friends commit suicide, make assignments, take bankruptcy laws and such." Dr. R. F. Boyd introduced Gov. B. W. Hooper, who made an excellent talk. Gov. Hooper spoke encouragingly of the future of the Negroes, and offered them much advice which was appreciated by the large audience present. Referring to the last time that he had spoken in the Auditorium, he said that it was for the benefit of the members of the colored race, the victims of the recent fire, a different class from those before him, but in a true sense just as good. This time he was speaking to an educated and more cultured set of men and women, who had enjoyed privileges and opportunities that should make true leaders of them and he urged them to be loyal to their race, not to feel proud and arrogant because of their superior advantages, but to attempt to lift the weaker to a higher plane. By doing that, the Governor told them that in their hearts they would receive great reward. His remarks were received with much enthusiasm by the people, who applauded him throughout his brief address. Degrees were conferred by President J. A. Kumler, who presented the diplomas as the names were called by Dean Hubbard. (Continued on Page 3.) SLAYS HIS FATHER. Tuscumbia, Ala., April 20.—(Special)—Richard Ragland was killed yesterday on his farm three miles west of Tuscumbia and his son, Luster Ragland, aged 30, is in jail here charged with the murder.

The trouble arose over stock belonging to the young man trespassing on the land of the old man. No.17 WASHINGTON PLEADS FOR FISK ON COLLEGE DAY AT BOSTON FAIR Jubilee Club from the University Sings. DR. GEO. W. GATES SPOKE ON FISK IDEALS—MANY FRIENDS OF THE INSTITUTION PRESENT—RROMINENT EDUCATORS FROM LEADING UNIVERSITIES —BANQUET HELD AT NIGHT— MANY DISTINGUISHED PERSONS PRESENT, INCLUDING LIEUT.GOV. OF STATE. Boston, April 26.—Fisk University day at the Boston exposition was observed to-day with song and speech by representatives of the Nashville institution for colored students. The celebration was in recognition of the forty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the university. At a platform meeting this afternoon Elwin D. Mead, of Boston, presided, and President W. H. P. Faunce, of Brown University, delivered an address of welcome. President George Augustus Gates, of Fisk University, spoke on "Fisk University Ideals," while Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee Institute, gave an address on the "Great Need for Negro Leaders." There was singing by the Fisk Jubilee Club. This evening representatives and friends of Fisk University 'held a banquet, at which the speakers included President Gates, Dr. Washington and Lieut-Gov. Louis A. Frothingham. In urging support for the Negro college at Nashville, Tenn., Booker Washington said: "Forty-five years of Fisk University means forty-five years of progress for the Negro race. Perhaps it is true that the life of few institutions in the south is more closely linked with the progress of the black people than is Fisk University. It was among the pioneer institutions planted in the south for the benefit of our people. During forty-five years it has done its work wisely and successfully through the graduates and ex-students who are now at work for the uplifting of humanity in every part of the south. Fisk University not only presents an object lesson in the matter of college education but in the direction of securing the sympathy, the confidence and the co-operation of both races and both sections of our country this institution stands as a model.

Selma, Ala., April 20—At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of Selma University held here yesterday, Rev. M. W. Gilbert, D.D., pastor of the First Baptist Church, Knoxville, Teen., was elected President of Selma University to succeed Rev. R. T. Poliard, D.D., whose resignation was handed in some time ago. It is said that several names were considered for this distinguished place, but the reputation of Dr. Gilbert as a scholar, as well as a minister, gave him the advantage, hence he was elected Word was at once sent to Dr. Gilbert but it was not stated whether he would accept the position, as it is known that he had just recently accepted the pastorate of the church at Knoxville, going there from Olivet Baptist Church, of New York City. Dr. Gilbert has been in the educational work before and some years ago was connected with Benedict College at Columbia, S. C. If he accepts the position, he will no doubt report during commencement exercise sin order to become thoroughly acquainted with the conditions. BRAVE MEN FALL ON THE BATTLE-FIELD. Thrilling and heartrending are the scenes of a battle-field. No pen can picture nor tongue can express the feeling that creeps over one when gazing into the mouth of cannon and amid the whiz of shot and shell. It has always been the custom for men to go to war, but in modern times the women, too, are risking their lives in one way or another in these great conflicts. On the 30th of April the women of Trinity A. M. E. Church will engage in war. It will be the Spanish-American War, too, between Mrs. Fanny Hamilton and Mrs. Ora Boyd.

FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1911. Dove of Peace. The Negroes of Nashville, from all appearances, are coming to the conclusion that it is to their best interest to lay aside bickerings and get together that they may do effective work for the uplift of the people. There are signs of this spirit everywhere. Men and women who have for months and even years felt that they have had grievances against their neighbors have come to submit that in reality it is nothing more than an idle imagination. It is common in conversation with our leading men and women to have them tell you they have no grievances against this or that party, and that they are anxious to see all of the leaders get together and make a strong pull for Nashville and the people. If this spirit is kept up it will only be a short time before the conditions in this city will undergo a great change, and the people will see what they have been losing all this time, due, principally, to a misunderstanding. It would be a grand thing for the dove of peace to linger over this vicinity, for a season, until the eyes of the leaders are opened to the sense of their duty one toward the other, and the people are set aright in their efforts to build up the city and make the community better where they live. Justice Prevails. The citizens of North Nashville, especially the patrons of Knowles School, have cause to feel very grateful to the Board of Education for the action taken in their session last Monday night. We refer to the disposition of the Waters case. This case has attracted wide-spread attention. Many unpleasant things have been said, and some have felt that the people who were opposing Prof. Waters were doing so out of malice. But if they will take the time to look into the matter carefully and to judge the case unbiasedly, it will be seen that there is no semblance of malice on the part of those people who have opposed this man being in the school. It was a case of scores of children of tender years on one side and a single man on the other. The children are helpless. They are compelled to accept what is given them. The man in question is grown and strong. He had been honored with a position of great trust, but he had conducted himself in such a way that the parents of these little ones did not feel safe in permitting him to instruct them, therefore they respectfully placed their grievance before the Board of Education. It required a strenuous fight to rid the school of this character, but the case has been settled and the people are relieved. They are not rejoicing but feel that they should give thanks to their Creator that justice has prevailed. They bear no ill-will toward the man. No one has ever been heard to express such a feeling; it is the hope that he will be able to pro- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1911 vide for his wife and children in some way, and the kindest feeling prevails toward him and the deepest sympathy is expressed. But the parents did not fel that they would be doing justice to their children if they had allowed this man to teach them who so far forgot himself that he was dragged into a case that required the highest court in the state to settle The incident, however, is closed now, and it should be considered by every one. Dr. Walker to the Graduates. Nashville has from time to time been favored and blessed with the presence of the great men of the race such as Booker T. Washington, W. T. Vernon, Robert Jones and others, who have filled the people with inspiration; but no words have been more beneficial or helpful than those that fell from the lips of Dr. C. T. Walker, of Augusta, Georgia, at the Ryman Auditorium Tuesday night, in his address to the graduating classes of Meharry Medical College. Before an audience of five thousand or more, Dr. Walker spoke for nearly an hour upon the subject, "The Physician and the People." He was master of his own language, and his mind was full of ideas. He drove directly to the hearts of his hearers the thought that he meant to convey. He first paid respects to Dr. Hubbard for his interest in the race and said that something in a tangible way should be done for him to show our exact appreciation of him. Dr. Walker then turned to the vast audience and spoke words of encouragement to them in a most convincing manner. To those young men and women who were so soon to be commissioned to a high calling in professional service the speaker gave a prescription that if faithfully followed will lead to permanent success. Dr. Walker is an orator, a lecturer, and a speaker. He has at his command all the weapons of invective. He can entreat, he can sympathize, he can encourage, he can amuse and he can denounce. He uses his speech only to clothe his thought, and his thought only to promote truth and virtue. He is a man that has made success, and success has won for him the confidence of his fellowmen. He has won it, not by one of those means called "lucky hits," but by travelling along the path of common sense. He is a man that has sought right and high ends, and has never forgotten to do his duty in whatever station in life circumstances have called him. We acknowledge an invitation to be present at a banquet to be tendered Hon. J. C. Napier in Washington, D. C., Monday evening, May the first, by Tennessee residing in the District. We wish our distinguished citizen and his friends a most enjoyable evening. Jack Johnson is out of jail and by this time out of California. But there are jails in other states. A change however, does good sometimes. The lawmakers will soon be gone as a whole. How pleasant to think about it. --- THE RELIEF FUND COMMITTEE. A committee has been appointed to seek out the needy of the victims of the recent disaster in which several men lost their lives in this city. The members of that committee are Rev. T. J. Townsend, chairman; Prof. W. S. Thompson, Rev. Wm. Gaines, D. A. Hart, Rev. Wm. Haynes and Prof. W. M. Allon. This committee will meet soon and decide on a plan of operation. --- WASH:NGTN PLEADS FOR FISK. (Continued from Page 1.) of Nashville, Fisk has the good wishes and the active help of the black people, of white people from the north, and white people at the south. It will require the combined effort of these three groups to bring about the satisfactory solution of the problem in which we are so vitally interested. "Few people realize to what an extent the nation is indebted to the educated colored man for the maintenance of peace between the races. Our Flag Is Still There WHY NOT BE A Knight of Pythias? Address DR. J. P. CRAWFORD, Grand Chancellor. While many race wars have been predicted, no serious and prolonged racial conflict has taken place in recent years in the south. It has been in a very large degree the influence of the educated Negro who has counseled patience, forbearance and sympathetic cooperation between the two races that has prevented disgraceful outbreaks and has resulted in securing and maintaining a large degree of peace and harmony between the races. "The people of this nation should remember that the Negro is not a beggar so far as his personal needs are concerned He supports himself in clothes and in shelter, and has done so for forty-five years. The only call that he has made upon the public has been for aid in the direction of education, moral and religious training; that call I believe we have the right to make through Fisk University and such a call will be answered." Gossip is Vehicle of Envy. The meanest thing that disturbs the human soul is Envy. It is an adder that stings to acts out of proportion to all that is sane or reasonable the person in whose heart it coils or ranks. It is a scorpion that creeps its slimy way through the envious thoughts of those who feel their inferiority in some respect to some other fellow human being. Anything that is mean and low, anything that grovels and crawls in the muck and mire of hatred, that thing is Envy. There are those who, with an air of holy disgust or righteous indignation born of envy against some fellow-being because he or she is the recipient of the praises and manifest favors of appreciation of many of his or her fellows, jump with feverish and fienlish delight at an opportunity to smirch and blacken the name or reputation of such a person who occupies a favorable place in the public eye. The man or woman in whom gropes the spirit of meanness to go back into the dead past and drag from out of some of its forgotten closets some hideous skeleton of some past mistake regarding some person in public favor and about whom the public knows naught, is a man or woman, were the blessed Lord here and he or she would spew out their poison. He would most likely treat him or her as He did the self-righteous gang that brought the poor woman for His condemnation. He would most probably say, as He would stoop down to write the same marvelous thing that he wrote in the sands on that day. "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." To skulk in ambush and stab a person fatally in the back is a crime usually adjudged murder in the first degree, but the wretch, be it a man or woman, who willfully and deliberately and maliciously and enviously stabs the reputation of another in his or her absence is a murderer whose degree of crime can be estimated by neither man nor angel. God alone can deal justly with the wretch who, without doing aught of good, enviously butchers the name of another. JADECEE. DOMINGO REVOLT IS NIPPED.

JULIA SCRIGGS Manager MRS. JULIA SCROUGGS, Manager Rev. S. L. HOWARD, Pastor FIVE THOUSAND MEN Sunday-School Campaign to be inaugurated in the Near Future Effort to be Made to Reach the Men. The pastors of the churches of the city, the superintendents of the Sunday-schools and other Christian workers are organizing for a Sunday-school campaign. Some of the Preachers' Alliances have already set days for a special meeting of pastors, superintendents and Sunday-school workers, and it is the aim of the churches of all denominations in the city to unite on one Sunday and make a special effort to get the men into the Sunday-school. The plan is to extend a special invitation to every man to visit some Sunday-school on the set Sunday. At the meeting, of the Ministers' Alliances the following week every pastor is to bring a report from his church of the number of men who attended Sunday-school on that day. They hope to have five thousand grown men attend Sunday-school on the given Sunday. In speaking of this plan a prominent worker in the Sunday-school said to the Globe representative that men's attendance at Sunday-school was a problem throughout the country. He said that most men looked upon the Sunday-school as a child's institution and that they order their children to go, but they themselves while away their time on the street corners discussing every subject except Christian training. He said they fail to realize that it is absolutely impossible to keep children in Sunday-school, and especially the boys, unless the fathers attend. So this campaign is to get the men into the Sunday-school, and then endeavor to A visiting minister to the city, in addressing a Sunday-school board of one of the churches recently, said that he did not approve of the habit of sending children to Sunday-school, but that he believed, and experience verified his belief, that the only way to maintain a strong, active Sunday-school was for the parents to carry the children and remain there with them. It is this spirit that the attempt will be made to instill into the men of the city of Nashville on this special Sunday that will be announced as soon as all the denominations agree on a day. ANNUAL K. P. SERMON AT ST. PAUL A. M. E. CHURCH. On Sunday, April 23rd, the Knights of Pythias of the city had their annual Thanksgiving celebration. It is the opinion of all who were present that the exercises from all points of view were the best held in years. About 12:30 o'clock the Knights began to gather at the Pythian Temple on Summer street, and the beautiful day allowed hundreds of loyal Pythians and Calanthes to turn out. Exactly at 1:45 the Chancellor Commander for the occasion, Sir Knight J. H. Kelly, called the lodges together and after a few words had the Master-at-Arms for the occasion to form the different lodges by numbers in front of Castle Hall in preparation for the march to the church of worship. This was done in a very short while, and exactly at 2:00 o'clock a more beautiful sight could not have been witnessed than to have seen the Uniform Rank in all its glory pass in review of the Lodge. In less than half an hour all were seated in the church, ready for the exercises. After the opening exercises conducted by the Chancellor Commander, Rev. W. Sampson Brooks preached one of the most touching and spirited sermons ever preached to Pythians and Calanthes of Nashville. After the sermon, the M. of C., Knight Allison, called on Knight Harris, of Knoxville, to speak. Knight J. Thos. Turner read a poem and Dr. R. F. Boyd delivered an address representing the Court of Calanthes, which ended the program. A liberal offering was taken for the general expenses, $17.50; for the Uniform Rank, $1.15. The $17.50 was priated as follows: For printing, to Dr. Crawford, 500 programs, $7.50; Clarion notice, 50 cents; printing notice, $1.20; flowers, $3; pastor, $5; sexton, 50 cents. Total expenses, $17.70. Miladi's Note Book. The Social Art Embroidery Club was charmingly entertained on last Wednesday evening by Mrs. Willie B. Thompson of 1812 Gay street.

Church—Laymen Will Assemble in Electoral College. The Electoral College, which was announced in last week's Globe for a meeting Thursday, May 18th, in Murfreesboro, will meet on Wednesday, May 17th, at the same place. Dr. T. W. Haig'er, the presiding elder of the district in which the Electoral College will be held, asked that this correction be made. This meeting is attracting wide-spread attention throughout the state, and particularly in that portion that constitutes the Tennessee Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The purpose of the meeting is to elect two delegates to the next session of the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church, which convenes in Kansas City in 1912. It is predicted that those in position to know that the laws of the A. M. E. Church will undergo radical changes at the next General Conference, and for this reason the delegates to the Electoral College in this Conference and in the Conferences throughout the connection are seeing to it that able men are elected. The Tennessee Annual Conference is determined that their representatives will not be lacking. There is a host of able men in the church in this Conference, and the churches, as far as can be learned, have taken special pains to elect good men. The meeting in May promises to be an interesting one. Aside from the election of delegates, the great questions that are being discussed throughout the connection will be ably discussed at this meeting. It is composed exclusively of lay members, but that fact does not argue that there will be no one present competent to handle the questions at issue, for there are laymen in the Tennessee Annual Conference with ability to discuss, and in an intelligent and convincing way, any questions affecting the church. So the meeting promises to be interesting from more points than one. TWO MINISTERS' AND DEACONS' CONFERENCES A Ministers and Deacons' Conference will be held on May 12, 13 and 14 at Woodbury, Tenn., by the Stone River Missionary Baptist Association. Rev. C. H.

THE LORD'S SUPPER THE RIGHT VESSELS USED TO COMMEMORATE IT ANY Congregation can have its wants supplied by securing one of our Quardruple-Plated Table Silverware Communion Sets at moderate prices and on reasonable terms. A set consists of one flagon, two goblets and two bread plates. If the church wants more goblets or plates, they can be furnished at an additional cost. The commemoration of the Lord's Supper is a very sacred ordinance. The custom for centuries has been to have special vessels for this occasion. Thus a communion set becomes an important part of this service. Many churches have used the old style communion set while others use an individual set. Both are appropriate and well-recommended. One is no reflection upon the other. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONCERNING PRICES AND TERMS. WRITE TO THE NATIONAL BAPTIST CHURCH SUPPLY Co., R. H.

Robinson. It is just two blocks from the passenger station; its location is an ideal one, being a new subdivision of Dyersburg owned and controlled solely by Mr. Robinson. The park is beautifully arranged for pleasure, there being a theatre in which high-class vaudeville will be a feature. The proprietor wishes to hear from all good colored actors. The intention is to have the park open day and night during the entire season. Every detail by, the management has been carefully worked out. Mr. Robinson assures his friends over the state that royal entertainment awaits their coming to Dyersburg. There are only two colored parks in West Tennessee—one in Memphis and one at this place. All assurance is given that a clean, moral and up-to-date entertainment will be provided for frequenters of the attraction. Amusements of all sorts will be the leading features. Catering only to moral and well-behaved element, there remains no reason why success is not a certainty. Oakland park is verily a thing of joy and beauty forever. Too much praise cannot be given to its promoter for the energetic manner in which he "does things." 7 One-Cent Savings Bank Incorporated Under the Laws of Tennessee. CAPITAL STOCK, $25,000.00.

NEGRO ATHLETE HARVARD'S HOPE. never to have another Matthews affair at Harvard, and Cable and his Theodore Cable Will Throw the Ham mer, Broad Jump and Run 100-Yard Dash. New York, April 22.—This year it is to be the survival of the fittest at Harvard as never before. Espey is this to be true in athletics. Scarcely a year ago the heads of this great university sent forth the Macedonian cry that caste and favorism must cease to play a part in college campus affairs if Harvard hoped to achieve the prominence to which student population entitled her. Now a definite step has been taken in the great democracy for which the faculty heads have asked. Theodore Cable, colored, is cut for the track team and seems certain to represent Harvard in the hammer throw. Harvard had one colored athlete who will never be forgotten—William C. Matthews, who graduated in 1904. He was a star on the baseball team, but there was a general feeling that he was discriminated against on the football team, and that had he been given a fair chance he would have perhaps pulled the team to victory in 1903. The men in charge of athletics at Harvard now are determined --- 8 MONDAY TUESDAY MAY 1 & 2 5th & Broadway Famous SHOWS G CIRCUS MENAGERIE e Monday 10 A. M. g News. never to have another Matthews afi fair at Harvard, and Cable and his roommate, Alexander Jackson, will be given a fair chance on the track team to make good. WALDEN LAID LOW BY ROGER WU LIAMS Friday afternoon, April 21, the husky bunch of ball tossers of Walden University slowly and hesitatingly trudged the White Creek pike to Roger Williams, where the bitter pill of defeat was awaiting to be administered unto them by the Roger boys. This was an experience much dreaded by the Walden boys, because they are hard loosers. Wednesday afternoon, April 26th, Bill Haynes pitched a shut-out game against Pearl High by a score of 14 to 0. This was a great and interesting event in athletic annals at Roger Williams, with "Bill" Haynes and Andrews Pullen, the battery for Roger Williams, getting away with the horrors. Only three times did a man ever get to third base. Haynes yielded but three hits, and on the other hand showed all the qualities of a veteran on the slab. The greatest of the greatest man came after him, but after all, he has the honor of being the first pitcher to shut out a team for Roger Williams in the history of the school. SCHOOL NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1911. 98c SOCIAL REFORM SOCIAL REFORM Earning Question in the Minds of the People—Plans on Foot for United Effort. There is a new awakening among the Negroes of Nashville of all classes. The preachers, the teachers, business men and rank and file of the best people of the city realize that there is great need of social reform. To this end there are several movements under way now that are indicative of a campaign being inaugurated that will greatly benefit this city. The desire to train up the young people in the proper way is seizing all classes and they are making strenuous efforts to organize in the churches, among the professional classes, in the lodges and among the business men, and to blend all of the organizations into one central body for the purpose of making a campaign against vice and immorality. Several meetings have been held already by the Ministers' Alliances of the different denominations, also by the professional classes and the business men as well. Recently the doctors held a rousing meeting at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church at which a special war was waged against the dreaded plague, tuberculosis. The doctors have their organization known as "Rock City Academy of Medicine." The Methodist Episcopal, the African Methodist and the Baptist preachers all have their ministers' alliances, and from each body the information is gleaned that they are taking steps to organize for a campaign of reform. The business men are not in the least negligent of their duty along this line, and while they are not active in their business leagues, they have expressed themselves as heartily in favor of the campaign and will promptly fall in line with some of the above organizations. Prof. Haynes, of Fisk University, is interesting himself in this work and it is understood that the faculty of Fisk University is also interested with him. Another movement that must not be lost sight of is that put forth by Prof. F. G. Smith, principal of Pearl High School, to aid one of the graduates in their efforts to better their condition. The teachers as a whole are manifesting an interest in the social reform movement. The information comes from all of these organizations that they are each anxious for this general meeting and the united campaign. Nashville is greatly in need of such an effort. There are evidences of it on every hand. There is scarcely a block in the city where the teachers be found a pool room and a soft drink stand. The young people congregate in these places in large numbers and dance and carouse day and night. Homes are being broken up and boys and girls of tender years are going to destruction through these agencies. Mothers and fathers seem helpless to check the tirade. They hold their children under subjection until they reach a certain age and then influences are so strong and the places of vice are so numerous and of such variety that before they realize it their children are in these dens of vice. They are appealing to the leaders, to the churches, the schools and people in all lines to aid them in the crusade against vice, and a great meeting is anticipated in the near future which will culminate in a strong organization that will organize the people in one strong body that will wage a continuous war against vice and immorality until every hullaboo and sluch pool is stamped out of the city. ODD FELLOWS' Great and elaborate preparations are being made for the celebration by Tennessee Odd Fellows of their annual Thanksgiving Sunday, May 14. Subordinate lodges, Grand Masters' Councils and Patriarchies are drilling almost weekly that the best showing possible may be made and the organization be given an upward lift in the minds of its adherents and friends. From official sources it has been learned that Odd Fellows in the Volunteer State have much of which to boast and are preparing to give these facts to the world. Under the leadership of Grand Master Fort an aggressive campaign has been waged for new material as a result of which new members are being made, new lodges organized and hundreds who have been content heretofore to lag by the wayside, are being filled with enthusiasm to such an extent that halls are being filled nightly with those who are determined to force their noble order to the front rank. It was also learned that the Endowment Bureau is in a healthy condition, each quarter now showing a handsome net balance with claims been paid as rapidly as possible proof reaches the Bureau. The Globe man had the pleasure of seeing the eighteenth quarterly report which shows an allowance of $3,500 for eighteen death claims, one of which claims was in favor of the beneficiaries of the late A. B. Carte, of this city. In the matter of endowment for the ladies' branch the Odd Fellows have passed other organizations in the state in that they have placed women on equal footing with the men without the expense of an extra bureau. Each lady member can, and it was learned that many are now carrying policies calling for a death allowance of two hundred dollars. Because of this exceptional advantage applications are poulting in, more than two hundred having been received in the last six months. The nineteenth quarter's report will be in the hands of the lodges by May 14, also other information of interest to the general public. The place of the annual Thanksgiving has not been announced, but it is believed that when the rank and file of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows march through the streets of this classic city to the strains of inspiring music a deep and lasting impression will be made. WHY PEOPLE NEVER TIRE OF THE CIRCUS Do you remember your first circus? Of course you do. Do you recall the ecstatic thrill you experienced when father said you could go? Do you recall the glorious street pageant; the blare of the brass bands, the lovely mounted ladies and sir knights; the parade of carefully groomed horses; the wall of the calico, the display of open dens of wild beasts; the tableau wagons; cages, floats, and last but not least the coming of the grotesquely laughable clown. But of course you do, and the memory of it still sends a thrill through you. And this is why one never tires of the circus. Of course it's the same old thing. It was the same old thing when you were a boy, but it's not "the same old thing" to your boy. One sees in the circus things one cannot see in the theatre or the county fair. The circus is at once entertainment and a lesson in natural history. When asked what it was that made the Dan Robinson's Famous Shows so immeasurably popular than all other shows, Mr. Dan Robinson replied: "The best of everything: There is nothing too great or expensive." The grand free street parade will leave the show grounds at 10 a. m. and travel over the main streets of the city, returning to the show grounds, where immediately following will be given in the open air and absolutely free to all, an exhibition far better than the performance of many similar travelling amusement organizations. The big shows open their season at Nashville Monday and Tuesday, May 1 and 2, at Twenty-fifth and Broadway. DEATHS James Posey, 29 years, 512 Sixth avenue, South.
