BIG SHAKE-UP AT FISK
COLOR LINE DRAWN ON
COMMENCEMENT DAY
Wholesale Discharge of Negro Teachers
NEGROES INDIGNANT OVER ACTION OF PRESIDENT—HAVE ALWAYS LOOKED UPON FISK UNIVERSITY AS THEIR OWN PROPERTY—WHITE PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS VISITED—SIX NEGRO TEACHERS LET OUT — ONE PLACE ALREADY FILLED BY WHITE PERSON — ACTION A GREAT SURPRISE.
With the close of the fiscal year at Fisk University comes a storm of surprises to the Negroes of Nashville. The first great surprise and one that caused general indignation was the attempt of the President to draw a color line on commencement day. An article appeared in the daily papers that said Dr. Gates had assured the white people of the city that if they would come out to hear the address of Dr. Stowe on commencement day, he would provide separate seats for them. When this became known the Negroes of Nashville were indignant beyond expression, and had it not been that they were so anxious to hear the discussion of the civil war by so distinguished a man as Dr. Stowe, it is very likely that the attendance at this year's commencement would have been less than it has in many years. As it was the Negroes consoloed themselves as best they could with the probability that the president had been misquoted. Many of them were heard to say that they know the abrupt manner in which Dr. Gates goes at things and how the daily papers misconstrue the meaning of statements, but with all of that they are still complaining with a deep feeling of regret that any thing might be said by the president that could be construed in such a way.
The Negroes always looked upon Fisk University as theirs, in fact, they know that Negroes made it possible for the institution to be what it is, and while it is under the Board of the American Missionary Society, it is a fact nevertheless that the famous Jubilee Singers, through their songs raised the money to build Jubilee Hall and a great portion of that to erect some of the other buildings, so in truth the Negroes of this country can say that Fisk University is theirs. Were it not so, they would not feel that there is any justification whatever for any president drawing the color line at commencement to get a certain class of white people to visit the institution to hear an address on the civil war. They know that the best white people of this city have always visited the university on any occasion when they desired to, and they believe that those who are interested in the institution will continue to do so. The matter was passed off as lightly as possible, but is not forgotten by the people.
The fact is also becoming known that five of the Negro teachers have been let out and one of the vacancies has already been filled by a white person. In the case of some of these, the people know full well that they were competent and their integrity is above question. Some of them are Fisk graduates and have taken special post-course studies in their special line of work, but nevertheless they have been turned away from their own school and it is the general opinion that the vacancies will be filled by white teachers. This matter has aroused the Negroes not only of Nashville, but of the whole country. In the case of one lady, who was serving in the capacity of nurse, it is said that she was surprised to know that her services were no longer needed, and the only objection to her was that the girls confided too much in her; that they told her things that should have been told to the matron and white teachers. Another lady who was a stenog
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JUNE 23, 1911
rapher, it is said, was very much surprised when she was told that her services would not be needed another year. The head of the department in which she was stationed, it seems, had outlined the work for another year, he was so well pleased with the work of this young lady that he had practically given her promotion in that her work had been lightened for the next term, and just when she felt secure, she was informed that sad news awaited her, and that sad news was her dismissal.
There were twelve Negro teachers in all at Fisk University when this fiscal year closed, and half of them were let out, leaving only six on the faculty. It is not known whether more will be dismissed or not. This number is sufficient to arouse the Negroes of the country. They argue that it is useless to educate the Negroes to do professional work if the door of hope in their own institution is to be closed in their faces. They say that if Negroes are not competent to teach in colleges and universities, that the time will never come when they will be.
It is stated that on one occasion a young lady was slapped by the matron and when this matter was laid before the president he informed all the young ladies that unless they were satisfied with the way things were run at the school they could pack their trunks and leave. Another case that was brushed by at the time was an instance in which, it is said, Dr. Gates called a very aged lady who has lived in the community for years, a liar to her face. The matter was passed over at the time because it was feared that the reputation to the University would be injured, but the people have never been satisfied and there is an under current of general complaint as to the president of Fisk University, who is considered by many who are competent judges to be unfit for such an important position. It is the opinion that he means well and that he is sincere in his way, but his way of doing things and his abrupt manner are very displeasing to the people as well as the students in the University. The Negroes are much aggrieved at the wholesale dismissal of Negro teachers and the apparent attempt on the part of the president to draw the color line in the university chapel.
STATE MEETING OF WOMEN'S CLUBS AT JACKSON.
The annual state meeting of Women's Clubs will be held in Jackson, Tenn., from July 6th to 8th. From every indication this meeting will surpass any that has ever been held in this state. Information given out by the secretary is such as to warrant the statement that a large number will be present. Several of the larger cities will be represented by sleeping car delegations. The outlook for the meeting is promising in every way.
REV, GRAHAM GOING, TO CLARKS VILLE.
Rev. D. A. Graham, D. D., pastor of Salem A. M. E. Church, has left for Clarksville, where he will take charge of St. Peters A. M. E. Church. Rev. C. H. Boone, the former pastor, has been transferred to Colorado Springs, Col., and Rev. W. H. Young will take charge of Salem.
The members and friends of the church, headed by Mrs. Turner and Anderson, gave Dr. Graham a farewell supper.
KILLED BY LIGHTNING.
Franklin, Tenn.—(Special.) A severe electrical storm visited this section Monday afternoon, June 19, about 5 o'clock. In a wheat field close in the suburbs of Franklin four or five men were at work, who sought refuge from the rain in a dwelling belonging to Mr. Newell. The lightning struck the building, damaging it badly; killing Kinnard Smith, and shocking his companions more or less severely. The house was much torn up, the roof, chimney, and even pillars to the front porch being damaged.
LYNCH NEBRASKA STOCKMAN.
Mob of Ranchmen and Employees Take Charles Selters and Hann Him.
Omaha, Nob—A special from Cody, Neb., says that Charles Sellers, a stockman, was taken from his home Monday afternoon, June 19th, by a mob composed of neighboring ranchmen and their employees and lynched. The lynching is said to have resulted from a family brawl, during which Sellers is alleged to have committed an offense which caused indignation in the neighborhood. Telephone offices were closed tonight and little could be learned of the affair.
NEGRO DOCTORS IN CHATTANOOGA
OPEN ANNUAL SESSION TUESDAY MORNING
Welcome Address by Hon. H. C. Evans
THE MEETINGS BEING HELD IN
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH—
PRESIDENT'S ANNUAL ADDRESS WELL RECEIVED—DUTY OF PHYSICIAN CLEARLY SET FORTH — MANY INTERESTING PAPERS READ BEFORE THE ASSOCIATION — NASHVILLE WELL REPRESENTED—TROLLEY RIDE TO IMPORTANT POINTS.
Special to Nashville Globe.
Chattanooga, Tenn., June 21.—Hon. H. Clay Evans, representing Mayor Thompson, delivered the welcome address on behalf of the city to the delegates of the State Association of Colored Physicians, Surgeons, Dentists and Pharmacists of Tennessee last night in the auditorium of the First Baptist Church, where the Association is holding its eighth annual convention. The exercises last night were of a public nature, and a large audience was present to witness the program, which consisted, besides the address of Mr. Evans, of a number of other addresses and a musical program that was enjoyed by those present.
Dr. L. E. Walker, of this city, who was master of ceremonies, introduced Mr. Evans as a "man who has proven his worth by deeds and not by words only." To the members of the association Mr. Evans bade a hearty welcome to Chattanooga, nearly every foot of which, he stated, had been drenched with the blood of American citizenship. He pictured the many historic spots around the city, and told the visiting members of the association that they offered a valuable study in history. The speaker complimented the colored citizens of Chattanooga, and said that the Negroes of this city stood for law and order, for progress and development. He expressed the hope that the meeting which was being held here would result in great profit to the professions represented and to the Negro race.
Dr. C. R. Woods, of Knoxville, responded to Mr. Evans in a short, but appropriate speech. Dr. W. A. Thompson, the well-known local physician, spoke in behalf of Mountain City Academy of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy, which was responded to by Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville. Dr. C. A. Bell, pastor of the First Baptist Church, spoke on behalf of the ministry. Dr. G. H. Moores, Chattanooga, president, of the Mountain City Academy of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy, also spoke.
The meeting was opened by invocation by Dr. Booth, who is a visitor from Birmingham, and jubilee songs by the First Baptist choir, and a violin solo by M. L. Pope and Prof. E. B. Bailey, respectively, which were very pleasing to the large audience.
The meeting opened Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock, when Dr. G. H. Moore, called the delegates to order, and led in singing "All Hall the Power of Jesus' Name." Invocation was offered by Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, after which Dr. Moores introduced Dr. J. A. Lester, of Nashville, who has the distinction of being the first president of the association. Dr. Lester presented Dr. H. M. Green, of Knoxville, the present president. Upon assuming charge of the meeting, Dr. Green was presented in an appropriate speech with a gavel for the association, which was the donation of the Knox County Industrial School. The gavel was presented to Dr. Green in a short address by W. L. Porter, a young newspaper man of Knoxville.
A number of short addresses were made by members of the association incident to the organization of the body. Among those speaking were Drs. G. H. Bandy, Nashville; Dr. C. O. Hunter, Columbia; J. A. Thompson, Chattanooga, and Drs. Reed, Hadley.
Caruthers, Voorhies and Wilson, of Nashville. Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, editor of the National Medical Journal, introduced Dr. J. A. Kenny, resident physicia not the Tuskegee Institute, also secretary of the National Medical Association. Dr. Kenny spoke in the interest of the National Medical Journal and also urged that all members should be closely identified with the work of the state associations.
Dr. W. A. Thompson, of Chattanooga, read a message bearing the intelligence of the death of a son of Dr. Wood, Knoxville, one of the speakers at the welcome exercises last night, which delayed Dr. Wood's coming to the meeting. A resolution was passed extending sympathy and regret for tl. Knoxville physician.
Following the appointment of committees, President Green delivered his annual address in which he urged that more interest be taken in the state association. He also dealt at length with the dreaded disease tuberculosis and other diseases which are so prevalent among his people. He spoke in favor of the promotion of friendly intercourse among physicians, raising the standard of medical education, and the guarding and fostering of sentiment in regard to the problems of public health, with the end in view that the physician shall become more useful to the public in the prevention and cure of disease. He commended the work of Dr. A. M. Townsend, of Nashville, who has done creditable work in connection with the National Pellagra commission, and predicted that a few years would see pellagra robbed of its reputation as certain death and numbered among the curable diseases. The message closed with a recommendation that a state commission be appointed consisting of one member from each grand division of the state, to make a careful study of tuberculosis among Negroes, this same commission to have charge of a campaign of education, with a view of teaching the Negro public through lectures, etc., enlightening them as to the danger, modes of prevention and such of the disease.
A twenty-minute Intermission followed the address of the president, and when the afternoon session was resumed, a number of interesting papers were read and discussed. Among these was one by r. J. D. Fowler, Nashville, on the "bookworm" disease. This paper was the subject of much discussion out of which the members of the association seemed to get much knowledge.
Other papers read and discussed at the afternoon session were "Erysipelas": Etiology and Treatment," by Dr. W. A. Reed, Nashville, and "Puerperal Eclampsia," by Dr. T. H. Price, Covington.
The association members were taken on an excursion in the late afternoon by local members to the historic pieces in and around the city, a special car having ben chartered for this purpose.
JEWS BANISHED FROM KIEV.
Over Thousand Families Subject to Expulsion from Russian Town.
Kiev, Russia, June 19.—The provincial authorities to-day published a list of Jews who, it is alleged, are now practicing the profession of pharmaceutical assistants, on the strength of which they have obtained the right of residence here.
Accordingly the police informed those enlisted that they must leave the city within eight days. It is estimated that one thousand families are thus made subject to expulsion.
Houston, Tex., June 19.—On August 1, 1861, the great order U. B. F., and S. M. T. saw the light of day in the city of Louisville, Ky., and ever since it has forged to the front ranks. It will be fifty years since its organization on Tuesday morning, August 1, 1911, and the heart of every lover of the Order now swells with pride in anticipation of the delightful time in store for its friends and members. This will be a great day with the members. They are beginning now to make preparation to make it the greatest day in the history of the Order by celebrating it in a most appropriate way. Five thousand men will be in line that day in Texas and many thousand will be in waiting at some point of vantage watching and cheering on the men who have borne the heat in the middle of the day. Sermons, parades, speeches, feasts, barbecues, picnics and many other functions will be carried out on this occasion to let the world know that the Order still lives.

NEGROES IN TEXAS HAVE BIG TIME
46th Anniversary of Liberation of Slaves
IN EVERY CROSS ROAD THE JOLLIFICATION DAY WAS .OBSERVED—FAMOUS NINTH CAVALRY BAND IN PARADE—COMMITTEE HAD EVERYTHING WELL IN HAND—PROGRAM CARRIED OUT WITHOUT A HITCH — PATRIOTIC SCENES WITNESSED — NATIONAL COLORS ENWRAP THE CITY.
San Antonio, Tex., June 19.—With every condition favoring it and with an enthusiastic populist to encourage it, the Negroes of this city celebrated their forty-sixth anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation. The celebration was held at the grounds of the San Antonio and the International Fair Association in close proximity to the famous Hot Sulphur Wells, one of the best known resorts in Texas. The 19th of June in Texas is equal to a national holiday. It was on this day forty-six years ago that General Granger landed at Galveston, Texas, to enforce the proclamation that had been issued by Abraham Lincoln, freeing all the slaves. Ever since that time, Texans at every cross road, in every hamlet, village, town and city, within the confines of the Lone Star State, have celebrated this day. This city has had the distinction of carrying out the most stupendous of all the celebrations in the state, and this year is not an exception.
One of the most patriotic scenes ever witnessed took place to-day, when the famous Knight U. S. Calvary Band led the parade that started at the corner of North Center street, under the head of Grand Marshal James H. Holt and his ales, with police escorts, proceeding down East Crockett to Alamo Plaza, where stands the cradle of Texas liberty. Decorations in national colors were in evidence throughout the line of march which move dfrom Alamo Plaza to Houston street, west on Houston to Santa Rosa avenue, thence West Commerce street east to Navarro, south on Navarro street to Bowens Island, one of the most beautiful spots in San Antonio, where the parade disbanded to take special cars for the fair grounds.
When the park was reached, and while enthusiasm was still at its height, the master of ceremonies, Mr. Jesse Milton Bumbrey, in an eloquent way, gave a short sketch of what the several emancipation committees had been able to do year after year. He told of the loyalty of the citizens in keeping up these celebrations and of the national interest in the celebration of the 19th of June as the Texans view it. He then introduced Mr. Joe Wimberly, who read the Emancipation Proclamation as issued by President Lincoln. Rev. J. H. Kelley, of the Second Baptist Church, offered prayer. Addresses on "The Progress of the Negro" by J. T. Walton, M. D., Prof. L. C. Grant, Revs G. F. C. Curry and D. S. Lacey. The queen of the day was Miss Vernell Richards, who was accompanied by four maids. The general committee consisted of about one hundred.
The officers of the celebration are Frank H. Tucker, President; Gus Johnson, Jr., First Vice-President; Richard D. Madison, Second Vice-President; Alvin K. Leonard, Secretary; W. C. Walton, Assistant Secretary; Robert E. Bumbrey, Treasurer; Wm. O. Myers, Auditor; John H. Holt, Grand Marshal; A. D. Hayes and J. E. Scott, Assistant Marshals. The celebration will be continued throughout to-morrow; excursions will run every day from all of the nearby towns, adding to the already large attendance.
SUCCESSFUL CONCERT.
The concert given at the Gay Street Christian Church by the Sundayschool June 19, 1911, was indeed a grand success. One of the largest audiences that has been seen at the church for some time was cut.

WE MAKE A SPECIALTY OF HIGH GRADE WORK
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COL- ORED TEACHERS.
Special to the Globe.
St. Louis, Mo., June 19, 1911. The meeting of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, July 26-30, is the topic of discussion in every quarter of the city at the present time. The Executive Committee with Prof. R. H. Cole at its head and Prof. C. H. Turner, Secretary, is making ample preparation both for the session of the association and for the entertainment of the delegates. Mr. J. R. E. Lee, of Tuskegee, the Corresponding Secretary, has been in the city a part of the week in conference with the Executive Committee and the various local committees concerning matters bearing upon the coming session. From a review of the program, it is evident that from the very start and at every session, some of the most vital topics are to be handled by the very best educators of the race.
The closing meeting is to be held in the Coliseum. This is the place where the most noted men of the country have spoken, among them Hon. W. J. Bryan, President Taft, Ex-President Roosevelt and Explorer E. Perry. Ten thousand people are expected to attend this closing session. The speakers are State Superintendent of Education, Hon. M. P. Evans, and Dr. Booker T. Washington. Gov. Hadley has also been invited
Mr. Lee, the Corresponding Secretary, was greatly pleased with the outlook of the meeting. He was unstinted in his praise of the equipment of the public schools. Although the schools will not be in session, Mr. Lee says it is worth a trip to St. Louis to see the magnificent and splendidly equipped Sumner High School, costing nearly $500,000, having every possible accommodation for the education of colored young men and women of St. Louis. The eyes of the whole country, educationally, are turned toward St. Louis.
DR. CHAS. STOWE SPEAKS TO
Y. M. C. A.
Dr. Chas. E. Stowe, of New York City, addressed the Young Men's Christian Association Sunday afternoon at the Clark Memorial Church. The announcement that Dr. Stowe would speak was the instigation of a large gathering of men at Clark Memorial Sunday afternoon. Dr. Stowe was introduced by Dr. George A. Gates, President of Fisk University. He spoke in chief of the work of the Y. M. C. A. He urged

the colored people of Nashville to lay plans for a complete organization here. He said he saw no reason why Nashville should not have a building for the colored organization to cost not less than $100,000. He took as his theme St. Paul's interpretation of debt. He stated that if a person possessed anything he was more or less a debtor, and that it was his duty to aid others. The meeting was full of enthusiasm and many of those present went away with a different idea about the Y. M. C. A.
GEORGE WILLIS BURRILL IN
TRAIN WRECK.
Special to the Globe.
Brooklyn, N. Y., June 19.—George Willis Burrill was one of those in the wreck that occurred on Long Island Sunday morning, of which the Brooklyn Eagle give the following account:
"The Wading River Express, rushing along at top speed to make up lost time, smashed into an automobile at a crossing not far from Westbury station, yesterday afternoon, and blotted out the lives of two well-known New Yorkers, who were on their way to the last of the international polo contests at Meadowbrook.
"After killing the two men the train collided at Wading River with an empty train which had been laid up there for the night on a siding, and ten persons were injured in this smashup. Both locomotives were reduced to scrap iron.
SWITCH LEFT OPEN BY SOMEONE UNNERVED.
"After the delay at Westbury, due to the deaths of Jay and Ross, the train went on to Wading River, which is the terminus of a division, and was put away on the siding to be laid up for the night. Some one left the switch open, some one who may have been unnerved by the accident at Westbury. There were no lights there.
Number 649 came on toward the Wading River station at a rate of about thirty miles an hour. It had discharged all its passengers save twelve or fifteen at the stations along the route. Seven cars were attached to the heavy locomotive. The first of these was a Pullman, and those following were passenger coaches and a smoker. There was no baggage car.
Too late for him to stop the dark shadow of the stalled locomotive fell across the vision of Engineer Noyes of the incoming train. He put on
brakes, reversed, and then jumped as the contact occurred.
The force of the collision was so great that the two locomotives reared like rampant steeds. Next moment the air was full of flying iron and the sound of splintering woodwork. Six cars of No. 648 were derailed and went bumping and tearing over the ties. The three forward cars were very badly damaged. In the first of these was a porter, G. W. Burrill, sitting alone in one of the forward seats. The shock was such that he was thrown head first through the panels of the oak door at the front of the car, and badly injured about the head and shoulders.
Mr. G. W. Burrill is the son of Mr. Chas. H. Burrill, who is well known in this city, having for several years been connected with the National Baptist Publishing Board as proof-reader. Mr. Burrill is also vice-president of the Nashville Globe Publishing Co. His son, who was injured in the wreck as stated above, will be more readily remembered by the people of this city who knew his father as "Will" Burrill. The accident to the son on top of the continued illness of his father makes the burden of Mrs. Burrill the greater. Her only child in a hospital where she cannot see him owing to the critical condition of her husband is sufficient to try the soul of any one.

Industrial School Graduates.
More and more the people of this country are turning their attention to the training of the youth. The wage earner is desirous that his children be educated, and at the same time trained to do some kind of work that will enable them to be independent when they reach maturity; the man of wealth has learned that it is impossible for a young man to control his passions unless he understands the industries from which his income is to be derived, and the rich mother has learned that her daughter must be trained in the home industries to be able to control her house. But the great question that is causing much worry now is how to train the youth industrially to prepare them to compete with those who have been brought up in the shop or mill; who have learned a trade in a concern where goods are manufactured for the market.
As a rule the boy who learns a trade in a school cannot compete with the boy who learns his trade in the shop. In the first place the facilities are in most cases limited; secondly, speed is not acquired because all the stress has been put on accuracy. It cannot be denied that thoroughness is a great requisite in everything, but it is equally true that speed must be attained if the trade school student would make good. It is, therefore, essential that special care be exercised in selecting instructors for the industrial department in our schools. Especially is this true of the Negro. For his opportunities are meager in the mill and shop and the Negro manufacturer must depend largely upon the trade for skilled laborers.
Is Peace Desirable?
The Tennessee and American, in the issue of the 22nd., has an editorial headed "Let Us Have Peace," to which every lover of law and order in the state would say amen if they could be convinced that there was a semblance of sincerity in the appeal; but in the same issue in which the editorial appears there is also a "Special" from Memphis, hounding Ex-Governor M. R. Patterson and intimating that he is preparing his road to the senate two years hence. Such tactics as these will never bring peace in this state.
The people of Tennessee understand the situation too well to be led to concede that all of our political turmoil has come about on account of the prohibition and election laws. Four years ago the people of this state were in a fair way to put liquor out of its domain, but a few men who had a greed for office set up a howl about corruption and did succeed in their purpose, but they were preaching a false doctrine and the people were not long finding it out. Since that hour this commonwealth has been in a turmoil and will be until the enemies of peace and progress make up their minds to be fair and

The Richmond Planet did finish that long journey in time to join in the crusade against the True Reformers. We do not believe any bank's interest can be successfully fostered by tearing down another.
So President Taft has decided not to accept Minister Furniss' resignation. We wonder how mad Mr. Furniss was when he learned he still had his $10,000 job?

EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.
The Baptist Sunday-School Congress held in the city of Meridian, Miss., last week, according to press dispatches, was a pronounced success. It is estimated that probably five thousand delegates and visitors were in attendance. Rev. Henry A. Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn., one of the leading spirits in the movement for the Congress, is one of the greatest Sunday-school workers in the entire country. Rev. Mr. Boyd is also a newspaper man of experience, being one of the proprietors of the Nashville Globe, one of the brightest and best edited Negro newspapers in the South.—The Demonstrator (Mound Bayou, Miss.)
PASSWORD OF THE NEGROES OF MISSOURI "SHALL WE RE-
If the Republicans of St. Louis and the state, headed by Kreismann and Hadley, respectively, think the Negroes are going to drink the Jim Crow salve and the disfranchisement wine, and they ride into office on the same, they are badly mistaken. The biggest upheaval that was ever rendered to a political party of "soft-soapers" is going to happen in the fall of 1913, and in August when the bonds come up for final passage.
The old-timer who fought from 1861 until 1865 has already made up his mind to vote to uphold his boy whom he has labored so hard to send to school in order that he may educate himself that his opportunity in life would be far greater, and that he might be able to fill a clerkship and be able to fill the bill, but Hadley says it is too soon for Negroes to hold public office in Missouri, and Kreismann says if I could only get a place for you where you would be together and not elbowing white Republicans, I might do something for the "black boys," but John C. McKinley says, give every one an even break and the best fellow shall make the touchdown. David A. Ball says the same; so, Negro men, take your pick, for you want to be like President Taft, Governor Hadley and Mayor Kreismann; they say a Democrat is just as good as a Republican and more often better, as we all have seen by their appointments. Hadley's last appointment was a Democrat on Police Board, and Kreismann's, a Democrat as Street Commissioner. So then, why can't the Negroes select one for governor? He has nothing to lose, because he has not received anything anyway.—Central Afro-American, St. Louis, Mo.

This is a likeness of Mr. 1. A. Henderson, one of Robertson county's most successful citizens. This cut shows him as he was twenty-one years ago, and may not be recognized by many who know him now, as a clean-shaved man. He is public-spirited, taking great interest in the moral and educational uplift of the people.
He came here twenty-five years ago, penniless, but by devotion to business and strict economy has accumulated considerable property and is proprietor of one of the finest barber shops in the town. The Henderson insists

that a barber is truly an artist and that there is no reason why he should not be a man of ability and usefulness. He conducts his business on a high plane and steers clear of the sentiment that is presented in the poem that says,
"Here stands a shrewd barber,
His life has been mast useful
His life has been mast useful, ing his time, talent and money to all worthy causes.
Without regard for friend or foe, he has wielded a relentless hand against deceivers who would creep into his community to prey upon the ignorant and unsuspecting. Through his untiring efforts he has secured from the white Board of Education the privilege to establish a colored Board of Education with absolute power to elect teachers and furnish the white board with all necessary information concerning the colored school. He is president of the Board and through their efforts, under his leadership, the colored people are blessed with a splendid school building surrounded by a goodly number of shade trees, which were put there at Mr. Henderson's expense. He also personally assisted in their planting.
Mr. Henderson is president of the Lend-a-Hand Cemetery and is secretary and largest stockholder in the Robertson County Fair Association. He is also an earnest, efficient Sunday-school worker. His education was received at Fisk University, but the prolonged sickness and ultimate death of his mother, Lourinda Henderson, of Murfreesboro, Tenn., caused him to abandon his studies at that institution in 1889. He is the possessor of an excellent library which shows him to be not a mere guesser of past events. He has the best periodicals to come to his desk, which enable him to keep informed on all important events. His frankness, firmness, fairness, scrupulous honesty and ability to judge men and their affairs cause him to be regarded as a safe leader. We wish him unbounded success in the years to come.

Fox-Moore.
The marriage of Miss Frances Moore and William Fox was beautifully solemnized last Wednesday evening at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Moore, Rev. T. J. Townsend, of Spruce Street Baptist Church, officiated, using the ring ceremony, in the presence of a few friends and relatives. The rooms were effectively decorated with Jackson vines, carnations, palms and ferns. The bridal party was unattended. The bride wore a beautiful white lingerie gown with satin sash.

WILLIAM H. LEWIS CONFIRMED.
Special to the Globe.
Washington, D. C., June 20.
To President Taft belongs the credit of having given an Afro-American the highest Federal appointment ever bestowed upon one of the race. The nomination of Wm. H. Lewis, of Boston, to be Assistant Attorney General of the United States was sent to the Senate in April, but Southern Democratic Senators employed all sorts of tactics to prevent confirmation and were able to hold it up until the Massachusetts Senators and other friends of Mr. Lewis got busy, secured the necessary votes and forced the matter to an issue. Mr. Lewis is not the only Afro-American who has run up against the color line when nominated for Federal office. There was a bitter fight made against Frederick Douglass when he was nominated for Marshal of the District for the District of Columbia. C. H. J. Taylor, James M. Trotter and James C. Matthews, nominated for Recorder of Deeds, in different years, encountered the color line in the Senate, and in each case the nomination was held up for several weeks.
William H. Lewis, the new Assistant Attorney General, was born in Berkeley, Va., November 28, 1868. He attended the Portsmouth, Va., public schools and the Petersburg, Va., high school. He is a graduate of both Amherst and Harvard colleges. At Amherst he was captain of the foot ball team and at Harvard he was the most noted center rush that institution ever knew. Mr. Lewis was assistant district attorney at Boston for eight years, and has an admirable record as a legal representative of the government. When given the recess appointment by President Taft in April, Mr. Lewis was assigned to Indian Depredations Claims and he is now engaged in that work.
NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE.
Twelfth Annual Meeting to Be Held In Little Rock, Ark., Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 18, 17 and 18, 1911.
For the meetings of the National Educational Association to be held in San Francisco in July, information has been furnished as to how arrangements should be made for Pullman or Tourist Car parties. The same information, with variations, may be of interest and value to the members of the National Negro Business League.
Experience has shown that attendance at meetings may be largely increased by organizing Pullman or Tourist Car parties or special trains. Already a number of special Pullman

or Tourist Car parties for the National Negro Business League meeting to be held at Little Rock, Ark., August 16th, 17th and 18th, are being organized throughout the country. All that is needed is for some one to take the initiative. The following suggestions are offered for the consideration of memoirs of State and Local Negro Business Leagues and others interested: 1. Carefully canvass the matter in your own city or state. Formulate your plan of action, then select active workers in each important center to carry out the plan. In all cases make the special Pullman or Tourist Car party a personally conducted affair.
2. Select the most attractive route for the going trip to Little Rock to arouse interest among the delegates. Start early enough to permit stopovers at points of interest en route. The one in charge of the party should make a careful study of points of interest, etc., that he may in his correspondence, advertising and on the trip speak with authority.
3. Get the active co-operation of all the railroads and especially of the initial line in your state. When you have decided upon the route you favor, write (or better see personally) the General Passenger Agent of that particular railway. Tell him you will undertake the work of securing a special car party to the Little Rock meeting, if you have positive assurance of his active co-operation on the following lines:
(a) The railroad to furnish full information to all prospective members of the parties, giving data covering itinerary and points of interest en Route to Little Rock.
(b) The railroad to circulate this information and itinerary with your co-operation among the members of your Local or State League.
(c) The railroad to advertise the special Pullman or Tourist Car party in all the Negro newspapers of the state.
(d) The railroad to send instructions to its agents throughout your state to carry out the active canvass for members for the party, with your co-operation.
4. Secure headquarters for your party in Little Rock, through W. M. Alexander, Chairman Committee on Homes, 504 1-2 W. Ninth street, Little Rock, Ark.
Persons intending to organize such Tourist Car parties are urged to keep the Corresponding Secretary, Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee, Ala., in close touch with their plans, so that he may bring parties in the same territory together. Attention to this request will be cordially appreciated. It will facilitate the whole movement. Yours very truly.

CRUSHING SKULL WITH A ROCK
—DEATH RESULTS ALMOST
INSTANTLY.
Sam Matthews was killed Monday morning about 11 o'clock, when, after an argument lasting for some time, during which spectators state Matthews acted the part of a bully, Joe Mayes picked up a rock and threw it at Matthews, killing him almost instantly. The trouble is said to have started at 504 Seventh avenue, North.
Matthews is said to have repeatedly slapped and drawn a knife on Mayes. The latter then ran down the steps of the house leading into the back yard, and snatching up a heavy rock, threw at his opponent. Although the police are investigating the matter, they have so far been unable to locate Mayes, who left immediately after the trouble.

PULASKI NOTES,
The State Normal Institute is yet
in session and is, being largely at
tended, Teachers are here from the
three divisions of the state. The
eastern section seems to outrival the
western, owing to the fact that Prof.
W. J. Hale, the conductor is from one
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JUNE 23, 1911.
of the historic cities of the eastern
‘section of the state. The instructors
are making themselves felt among
the teachers who are attending the
normal by the skillful and energetic
way in which they present their sub-
jects. Each instructor presents his
Subject in a most forceful manner.
‘A model recitation is conducted, thus
showing, especially the younger
teachers, the best way to conduct re-
citations, The model recitation is
presented by Mrs. Allen and assisted
by Miss E, M. Bramlette. Prof.
Batte, the instructor of geography,
grammar, health and physics, is an
instructor of many years’ experience.
He is taking nothing for granted, but
js presenting each subject with full
force and effect, Prof. Bridgeforth is
the instructor of algebra and history.
The manner in which Prof, Bridge-
forth presents the subject of history
shows a deal of forethought. Some
have called history a subject, but
| the interest which is being mani-
texted in conducting these recitations
will soon have us to forget that his-
tory was ever considered a dry sub-
ject. Prof, Hale, the conductor of
the institnte, is the instructor in the
district schoo! physical culture and
mathematics; besides a general over-
sight of the entire work. We are
foreed to say that his manner of pre-
senting the Mifferent subjects and al-
lowing each teacher who so deserves
to express him or herself fully on
each subject, and at the same time
having perfect discipline is wonder-
ful. He seems to be a natural lead-
er of men, not by force, but by so
presenting his ideas in such a plain
and reasonable way that the most, in-
attentive will heed to his reasoning
‘The citizens of Giles County feel in-
deed very grateful to the State Super-
intendent of Education for sending
the first president of the State Nor-
mal of Tennessee for colored youths
to conduct a normal institute in. our
town and thereby cause us to be more
intimately acquainted with him and
his work. We believe that the state
has selected the right man in the
right place. The teachers here from
Chattanooga don’t hesttate to express
themselves freely that they are re-
gretting to lose Prof, Hale as a citi-
zen of Chattanooga, and especitlly as
a teacher and leader of his people
in ‘that section, The following are a
few of the teachers from Chattanooga
who crossed the section boundary of
the eastern division of the state and
| followed their leader, Prof, Hale:
Prof. A. J, Tabb, Mrs. W. P, London,
Mrs, A. HB, Henderson, Mrs. T. A.
Rhue, Mrs, B, Grant, Mrs, B, M. Bil-
lingsly, Miss B, B. Barnett, Miss R.
L. Ernest, Miss K. Grant. The west-
ern section of the state has four:
Misses Harris, Horton, Messrs. Led-
ford and Ransom. Mrs, Mollie Tears
entertained at dinner last. Wednesday
in honor of Mrs, Carrie Morrell, of
Columbia, Those present were Misses
Mary Inez Upshaw, Mrs. Della Wil-
jiserson, Mr. and Mrs, B. H, Morrell.
Miss Inez E. Upshaw, who has been
connected with the Tuggle Institute
of Birmingham, Ala., has returned
home, and her many friends are de-
lighted to see her at home again.

Lynnville with Prof, Hale. Rev. D.
Howard was all smiles Sunday to see
so many of the visitors of the State
Institute at his services. Rev.
George W. Dickerson preached a won-
derful sermon at Beulah Baptist
Church Sunday, and afterward took
the evening train for his home in
Nashville. Prof. Batte spent Satur-
day with Mr. McBuford in the coun-
try, Prof. Davis, of the class of

INDIGNANT OVER ARRESTS.
Huntsville, Ala., June 19.—(Special.)—Fifteen of the Negro farm hands who were arrested Saturday evening on charges of vagrancy for loafing around Negro poolrooms in the city were arraigned before Mayor Smith this morning and all proved that they had been at work on the farm until noon, after which they came to the city to enjoy a half holiday. Every man was discharged. Employers of the Negroes, among them being several of the most prominent farmers in the county, are indignant over what they term a feegrabbing outrage, and they have engaged an attorney to proceed against the deputy sheriff who made the arrest.
SHELBYVILLE NOTES.
The only topic of discussion for the last two weeks in Shelbyville has been the "moving of Turner Normal College" from Shelbyville to Nashville. Mass-meetings have been held almost daily by both colored and white citizens. The object has been to in some way head off the movement and induce the Trustees to rescind their actions, and allow the school to remain at this place. About two thousand dollars have been subscribed to the building fund by the citizens. Besides this Shelbyville has promised to stand by the trustees till the building is completed, in case they agree to stay in Shelbyville. Dr. J. A. Jones returned Saturday from his trip to Wilberforce, Ohio, where he went to attend the commencement and the meeting of the Trustee Board of that institution, of which he is a member. Dr. Jones left again for Nashville this week to meet the committee on purchase of the Turner Normal. Dr. W. A. Lewis, of Nashville, was in town this week. His trip was purely of a business nature. He was a guest of Dr. Jones at Turner Normal. The new pews have been installed at the A. M. E. Church, and the members are to be congratulated. It is said that there is to be no public school this year in Shelbyville, on account of the public school building having to be moved from its present location. There is some talk about the next session being taught in connection with the Turner Normal College, in case that institution remains at Shelbyville. The Masons will give a big picnic next Saturday on Turner Normal campus, and will hold St. John's Day celebration Sunday. Dr. J. A. Jones is to be the principle speaker. Mr

PLEASANT GREEN BAPTIST SUNDAY-SCHOOL ENTERTAINS HER CONGRESS DELEGATES.
Quite a number of teachers and scholars of Pleasant Green Sunday-School assembled at the residence of Mrs. Ethel Perkins, 1030 Fourteenth avenue, North, Friday night to hear "ehoes" from the Sunday-School Congress from the delegates, Superintendent S. H. Johnson and Mr. Felix Harding. After quite an entertaining talk by each delegate ices were served, and those who braved the storm left for their homes with a promise from the superintendent that they should hear more from the Congress Sunday morning in Sunday school.
TO KEEP THE BABY WELL.
(To be Continued Next Week.)
A.baby's bed should be flat, firm, clean and dry. Feather pillows are bad things for babies to lie'on, especially in the summer.
Every mother should nurse her baby if she can possibly do so. No other food is so good for baby as mother's milk.
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JUNE 23, 1911.
R. A. MAYBERRY.
MILLA MAYBERRY.
MOLLIE MAYBERRY.
G. W. MAYBERRY.
Feeding
Of the babies that die before they get to be a year old, nine out of every ten are bottle-fed.
Wash the nipple with cold water before and after each nursing.
The mother should eat plain, well-cooked food and should see to it that her bowels move at least once each day. Constipation in the mother is bad for both mother and child.
She should be careful as to diet and habits of life. Beer and tea are harmful and in large quantities (two pints or more daily) may be very injurious.
Regular, Feeding.
Regularity in feeding is one of the most important things in the care of a baby. Irregularity in feeding leads to over-feeding in most cases and often causes sickness, diarrhoea and death.
Feed the child at regular intervals
Do not nurse it, every time it cries.
A child is not always hungry when it cries, but it will eat at almost any time that food is offered. If it eats before its stomach is ready for a fresh supply of food, it may become sick.
The baby's stomach should be given a certain length of time to digest the food that is put into it. It should then have a little rest before it is called on to digest more food. If it is not allowed to rest, but kept at work constantly it will become exhausted and that means that the baby will be sick. If a baby cries between feedings give it a drink of water that has been boiled and then cooled, with nothing in it.
Even very young nursing babies should have water in hot weather between feedings. This can be given out of a spoon or a perfectly clean nursing bottle.
Breast Feeding
From the third day to the sixth week.
The baby should be nursed every two hours during the day, 6, 8, 10, 12., 2, 4, 6, 8, and should be nursed only twice between 10 p. m. and 6 a. m., not more than ten feedings during the 24 hours.
The baby should not be allowed to nurse more than twenty minutes at a time. Nursing longer than this may give the stomach more than it can properly digest before the time for the next nursing.
From sixth week to third month.—During the day, 6 nursings 2 1-2 hours apart, at 6, 8:30, 11, 1:30, 4 and 6:30. From that time on until morning only two nursings should be allowed.
From the third to the sixth month.—The nursings should be three hours apart during the day, at 6, 9, 12, 3, 6, 10, with one only between that hour and 6 o'clock the next morning.
From the sixth to ninth month.—The times of feeding remain the same, but the night feeding should be discontinued. The child may wake up in the night, but should be given a drink of cooled boiled water. After a short time, if it is well it will sleep through the night. From ninth to twelfth month.—Nursing three and one-half hours apart. Five in number. None at night.
Bottle Feeding.
If it is absolutely impossible for a mother to nurse her baby, it may be possible to find a wet nurse. If this cannot be done, it will be necessary to put the baby on the milk of some animal. Cow's milk should not be given to young babies much under a year old, unless it is diluted with certain amounts of clean water or barley water.* The best milk you can get is not too good for the baby.
DISTRICT CONFERENCE IN SESSION.
Special to the Globe.
Franklin, Tenn., June 21.—The annual session of the District Conference of the South Nashville District of the Tennessee Annual Conference convened in Shorter Chapel this morning Dr. T. W. Haigler presiding. TTh meeting was opened with devotion. After the election of officers the delegates settled down to business.
The president in his opening address urged the delegates and visitors to beseech themselves in the interest of the education and training of the youth.
Special stress is being put on education by all speakers at the meeting. The fact is often referred to that Turner Normal is now located in Nashville and so situated to impel all members of the denomination to bend every effort for its support.
Dr. W. B. Denny, the pastor, is receiving the praise of all for the excellent mainner in which he is entertaining the guests. The session will adjourn Sunday night.
FIFTH TRIAL OF NEGRO.
Jasper, Ala., June 19.—(Special).
—Henry Walker, a Negro, will go on trial here to-morrow for the fifth time on a charge of murder and criminal assault on Mrs. J. C. Dickinson at Cordova, Ala., eight years ago. He has been sentenced to hang four times and each time the case has been reversed by the supreme court.
The husband of Mrs. Dickinson, who was struck on the head with an axe at the time of the assault had practically lost his reason and died only a few weeks ago in Cordova as a result of his wound.
EBENEZER NOTES.
The stewardess board of No. 1 met at the home of Mrs. Mary Kideout Friday evening. The meeting was very interesting. Rev. Reed made an interesting address. A two-course menu was served. Little Hazez Neal is quite ill. Miss Addie Sledge will leave next week to attend the conference at Franklin. Mr. and Mrs. Neal spent Sunday in the country.
FAYETTEVILLE NOTES.
Institute of last week was extremely fine. Each instructor conducted his part well. We were favored with a great many visitors. Some of them lectured splendidly. The County Superintendent and Prof. Williams came over Friday and gave to us some endurable points and a splendid lecture also Dr. Hampton lectured splendidly. Dr. M. A. Clark was called to Dixon again to practice medicine. Miss Bessie Morton, of Huntsville, is here visiting her sister, Mrs. J. W. Bright. We trust the young people will give her an enjoyable time. Miss Tennie L. Suggs just arrived from Nashville as a student of Fisk Monday. The faculty of the institute is preparing to have an enjoyable menu Friday night, June 30, 1911. A four-course menu will be served. All teachers are requested to be present. There will be a musical program rendered at the A. M. E. Church Tuesday night. Mrs. Lizzie Jamplin wishes to announce that her daughter, Myrtle, will be united in matrimony to Mr. J. W. Suggs Thursday night. Misses Myrtle Williams and Bettle Wilson are visiting friends at Lewisburg. Mr. Roscoe Bryson was in Mulberry Monday in the interest of Cumberland Telephone and Telegraph Co.
Y. M. L. C. Notes.
When great moguls clash there is discontent, ill feeling and the question of the hour, "Who is great?" When Christian moralists meet the "purpose is peace on earth and good will to mandkind;" but when an assemblage of young men as well-known as the Y. M. L. C. meets their too long established quality, "genius of literary personality and perpetuity fraternal motive is exalted. Seldom, very seldom has there been recorded in the history of our club or, even any other organization such a successful election as was conducted at our last meeting. The vice-president had absolute charge of the same and the following quarterly reports from officers showed a vast increase numerically as well as financially. The election pursued resulted as follows: President, E. L. Kinzer; Vice-President, J. L. Leach; Secretary, H. Jordan Stockard; Assistant Secretary, B. S. Scruggs; Treasurer, E. P. Bond; Librarian, S. H. Rhodes; Critic, the new office created, E. D. Houston. Our friends are especially invited to the home of B. S. Scruggs to the Dunbar celebration, 1723 Paterson street, June 27, at 8 p. m.
