NASHVILLE GLOBE. Vol. VI. GRAND LODGE KNIGHTS PYTHIAS GRAND LODGE KNIGHTS PYTHIAS ASSEMBLE IN HISTORIC CHATTANOOGA Mayor Welcomes Delegates to City. GRAND CHANCELLOR'S ADDRESS ROUNDLY APPLAUDED—LOCAL COMMITTEE ENTERTAINS GUESTS ROYALLY—REPORTS OF GRAND OFFICERS HIGHLY COMMENDED BY DELEGATES CALANTHE COURT MEETING IN SAME CITY—ELECTION OF OFFICERS A QUIET AFFAIR—DR. CRAWFORD ELECTED THIRTEENTH TIME—NEXT MEETING IN MEMPHIS. The Thirteenth Annual Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias convened in the spacious auditorium which was profusely decorated with flags and bunting for the occasion by the local lodges of Chattanooga. Never before in the history of the grand lodge has the membership witnessed such artistic and becoming colors as were blended in the decorations of the building. Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor, rapped for order promptly at 10 o'clock. All officers were present. While awaiting the report of the Committee on Credentials addresses were made by Rev. J. A. Jones, of Shelbyville; Prof. J. A. Henry, of Chattanooga; Capt. J. J. Scott, of Memphis; Mr. Thos. Hayes, of Memphis; J. H. Slaton, of Columbia, and others. In the afternoon Hon. T. C. Thompson, Mayor of Chattanooga, welcomed the delegates on behalf of the city. Mayor Thompson said in part: "When my brief period of office is over, I only crave one enconium, and that is that I was the mayor of all the people. I know what "C" stands for in your motto. Let me ask you to let it stand for something else. Charity does not only mean giving to and helping somebody who belongs to the same order, but broadly speaking it means helping all with whom you come in contact. C should stand for something higher: it should stand for Christian citizenship. "The good Lord has seen fit to put two nations here in the south to live together. Whatever helps us, helps you; whatever hurts you, hurts us. Show me the man who is a good husband, a good father, a good professional man, a good business man and in the same degree I will show you a good citizen who is doing his duty by his country and state. I have a horror of the man who does not go into politics because it is dirty. Politics are dirty, perhaps, because good men do not take part. I would not ask any man to vote with me unless I was right on the question. You should urge your people to go to the polls and vote on all questions without anything but moral suasion." In responding to the mayor's address, B. F. Booth, grand attorney for the order in Tennessee, held up the principles and aims as practiced by the colored grand lodge and declared that they existed solely to do good for their people and make better citizens. He said in part: "There is nothing wrong in our association here. We are trying to do what we have been told to do many times—imitate that which is good in the white man." Other responses were made as follows: on behalf of the Calanthes, Miss Virginia Soward responded in behalf of the Calanthes. The parade, headed by a band playing patriotic airs, was a very pleasing affair. It was led by Gen. Frank C. Henderson, in command of the Uniform rank. Over five hundred men were in line. At night a boat excursion and other amusements were given the visiting Knights and Calanthes. Wednesday morning the Grand Lodge was opened in regular form. The following committees were announced: Committee on Finance—Dr. A. M. Townsend, C. W. Coleman, A. W. Hill, Luther Cummings, J. M. Anthony. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 14, 1911. Committee on Printing—Dr. R. W. Allen, R. E. Gee, J. H. Kelly, Jr., M. V. Buford, A. C. Bailey. Committee on State of Order—W. O. Smith, A. L. Haddox, Arthur Pope, J. P. Hale and T. H. Tarpley. Committee on Endowment—Prof. E. Alston, J. M. Herdon, E. C. Dangerfield, Dr. G. W. Bugg and Paul Saeed, Jr. On Grand Chancellor's Address—Dr. G. W. Whitfield, W. H. Allison, M. W. Wells, L. Duncan and H. Hamilton. Committee on Appeals and Grievances—R. C. Martin, Arthur Shane, Dr. J. B. Clay, L. C. Moore and J. W. Hines. Committee on Obituary—J. Thos. Turner, P. H. Ruffin, Gilbert White, George Williams and J. J. Scott. Committee on Law and Supervision—B. F. Booth, P. R. Burns, Dr. J. P. Frierson, F. Booker and Zack Adams. The Grand Chancellor made his annual address which was full of food for reflection. He reviewed the present legal status of the order to the evident satisfaction of the assembled delegates. B. F Booth, grand attorney, made a oriliant report. T. G. Robinson, Treasurer of the Endowment Board, made an exhaustive report, showing a cash balance of $18,625.87. Dr. A. M. Townsend, grand medical register, read his annual report, showing that nine new lodges had been set up, and a total of 1,583 new members added. He reported the same number of deaths this year as last year to have been 87, which with the increase in membership showed a remarkable decrease in the death rate. He urged the grand lodge and members to enter heartily into the crusade being waged against tuberculosis, and asked all physicians examining applicants to be careful in them. Telegrams of greeting and congratulations were received from the colored Pythians of Knoxville, and from S. W. Green, supreme chancellor, New Orleans, at Wednesday's session of the grand lodge. Henry Allen Boyd, assistant secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Co., was introduced to the order and made an effective address, dwelling upon the closely related work of the fraternal organizations and the churches. On behalf of the Baptist Publishing Board, located at Nashville, Rev. Boyd presented a suitable set of grand lodge furniture, which was accepted. Grand Chancellor Crawford thanked the publishing house for this offer. Dr. J. W. Whitfield, President, Murfreesboro; A. Thos, Hill, Secretary, Pulaski; T. G. Robinson, Treasurer, Dyersburg; U. W. Richardson, Chattanooga; W. S. Thompson, Nashville; Wayman Wilkerson, Memphis; B. F. Booth, Grand Attorney, Memphis; Dr. J. P. Crawford, G. C., Nashville. The above are the endowment Board who have been working with might and main to adjust all pendnig claims. The report submitted by the Secretary, A. Thos. Hill, was a masterpiece and calls for praise from all who heard it. Dr. Boyd reported a total of 143 courts and that the financial condition of the order was flattering. He reported large time deposits in two Negro banks, the People's Savings Bank and Trust Company, Nashville, and the Fraternal Savings Bank, Memphis. He stated that the failure of a Pulaski bank took from them over a thousand dollars, but the officials promise to pay dollar for dollar. This was not a Negro bank. He made several recommendations, among them a permanent home for the offices of the grand lodge and grand court; each court keeping blank books for rejected and suspended persons; each court banking its money through a banking committee and the establishment of a Calanthe paper. He paid a high tribute to the women making up the organization and women of the Negro race in general. GRAND LODGE ELECTS OFFICERS Chettanooga, Tenn., July 13. Dr. J.

CHAS. H. BURRILL Vice-President of the Nashville Globe Publishing Company Passes away at His Home in Brooklyn, N. Y. Mr. Chas. H. Burrill, vice-president of the Nashville Globe Publishing Company, and for many years a prominent character in the printing houses of the Negroes of Nashville, died at his home in Brooklyn, N. Y., Wednesday morning, July 12th, at 7:45. The funeral service was conducted Friday evening, July 14th. Mr. Burrill first came to Nashville in 1886 to take charge of a printing department of the A. M. E. Church Sunday-School Union, then under the management of Dr. C. S. Smith. He did not remain very long that time, being a stranger in this vicinity and far from home, and soon returned to the bedside of an invalid wife. In 1891 he was induced to return to the Sunday-School Union to resume his duty as superintendent of of their printing department. He remained there from 1891 to 1895, when he left again for his home in Philadelphia. In 1898, when the National Baptist Publishing House was just beginning to blessom into reality, Mr. Burrill was again persuaded to leave the comforts of his home and come to Nashville to take charge of the printing department of the Baptist Publishing House, where he remained until the spring of 1909, when his health broke down and he was compelled to return to his home. While in Nashville, Mr. Burrill made a host of friends and acquaintances who honored and respected him. Chas, H. Burrill was a thorough printer, having served his apprenticeship in one of the best printing offices in Providence, R. I., and for years worked in one of the largest and best printing offices in the East. He had a special adaptation to proofreading, and made quite a reputation wherever he worked for his accuracy and his ability to judge good printing from bad. He was educated in the old school of printing when the devil boy in the office had to learn how to do everything that was to be done in a printing office. So Mr. Burrill could sit down to a desk and prepare his copy, go to the case and set up a job in real artistic fashion, lock up the form, carry it to the press room, and whether it was on a job or cylinder press print the job in first-class stlye; then carry it to the bindery and finish it in first-class workmanlike manner. And he knew when it was right. It was not a matter of guess work with him. He knew printing in the truest sense of the word. The success of the Negro publishing houses in Nashville is due more largely to the painstaking ability of Mr. Chas, H. Burrill than to any oth- --- H. BURRILL the Nashville Globe any Passes away Brooklyn, N. Y. er one man in the world. When he came to the Sunday-School Union in 1891 he found Dr. Smith surrounded by a set of men who were there merely for the loaves and fishes, and who took no thought of the great struggle that Negroes would have to make to establish publishing houses. Mr. Burrill, when he took charge of things, at once set about to give to his employer honest service. He believed in doing the very best for the man he worked for that he could possibly do. He would not allow the men working under him to overcharge for their labor, and so under his administration the A. M. E. Sunday-School Union was put on a solid footing. While he was there the history of the African Methodist Church was published under his supervision. He read every line of the proof, and directed the mechanical construction of the book. The work was done by Foster and Webb, white printers, and any of the people of that firm will gladly admit that his proof-reading was the best that they had ever seen. The History of the A. M. E. Church will take first rank among the books of the country. In 1898 Mr. Burrill came to the National Baptist Publishing House at the earnest solicitation of a young man who had served his apprenticeship under him in the person of Mr. D. A. Hart. Mr. Hart's friends asked him why he was so anxious to have Mr. Burrill come to the Publishing House and take the position that he himself might have gotten had he not urged the management to employ Mr. Burrill. Mr. Hart's answer was that the National Baptist Publishing House was in need of a man who had had many years of experience in the printing business, and who was a thorough printer. The young man realized the great possibilities of the Baptist Publishing House, and saw the need of a man competent to launch the concern in the proper manner. So Mr. Burrill was employed. His work at the National Baptist Publishing House stands for itself. The young man who worked with and under Mr. Burrill during the eleven years he was here can testify as to his worth and ability. They can be found in all parts of the country who, during the period he was in Nashville, came to the Publishing House, and were benefited by coming in contact with this man of superior ability in the printing art. He was truly the father of printing among Negroes in the South, and the fact that the Negro publishing houses in Nashville are doing better work than any elsewhere, testifies to the faithfulness of the late Chas. H. Burrill. --- No.28 ASSEMBLYMEN GONE AT LAST ASSEMBLYMEN GONE AT LAST MOST NOTED IN HISTORY OF STATE Negroes are Disappointed on Last Day DEFEAT OF NORMAL SCHOOL APPROPRIATION BILLS A SEVERE BLOW—MORRELL FUND BY ALL RIGHTS IS THEIRS—A CAREFUL REVIEW OF THE CASE BEING MADE—POLITICS SEEMS TO HAVE CREPT IN THE FIGHT—GOV. HOOPER CHARGED WITH OPPOSING THE BILL—MEN OF THE REGULAR WING SHOW GREAT COURAGE IN FIGHT FOR BILL.. The Fifty-seventh General Assembly of the State of Tennessee is a matter of history. The record made by this body will live long in the minds of the people of this state, and the country as well. More nonsense and humbuggery was indulged in on Capital Hill this year than has ever been witnessed there before, and if the people of Tennessee were asked to express a hope, they would say that they hoped never to witness such a disgusting scene again. All sides and factions were playing the game of politics to the extreme. The Republicans were fighting to get a foot hold in the politics of the state, the Independents were fighting to get control of the Democratic party, the Regulars were struggling to regain what had been lost, and so for six months, the fight has gone on incessantly, and it is a great relief to Tennessee to know that the strife has come to an end, that for a time at least, the people can go about their business in peace. The Negroes of Tennessee have watched the proceedings of this assembly as they have never done before. This was due no doubt to the conditions that prevailed during the las ttwo campaigns in the state. Since the Negroes of Tennessee have assumed the attitude of independents there has not been that oneness of action in voting. As near as can be learned the vote of the black man in the Old Volunteer State is evenly divided. In the August election of 1910, and in the November election it was a toss up between the Regular Democrats and the Fusionist element as to who had the largest Negro vote. That being the case, the Negroes have watched the acts of the man they helped elect and who represents the people in the General Assembly. Many matters have been up for consideration, but the principle one that all the Negroes of the state centered on, and upon which they all they all agreed, was the Negro State Normal. The state of Tennessee is just beginning to make preparation for the educational and industrial training of the Negro youth of the state. They are many years behind most of the Southern states, and there has been shown a disposition on the part of many to do the very best that can be done in regard to the preparation of the Negro Normal school. In view of the fact that Tennessee was so late in starting in the latter days of the Assembly, that is, before the elopement, a bill was introduced to make a small appropriation to purchase additional land for the Normal School farm. In the confusion the bill was lost sight of at that time. After the re-assembling of the General Assembly this bill was revised, and also a new bill was introduced to give the Negro Normal that portion of the Morrell Fund that belongs to them. The Sentte voted almost unanimously for the bill, the voting being as follows: Adams, D; Albright, D; Bacon, D; Boyd, D; Brown, D; Butler, R; Cox, D; Davis, R; Draughon, D; Hale, R; Hicks, R; Houk, R; Jones, D; McAlister, D; Page, D; Parks, R; Rogers, D; Mr. Speaker Baxter, D; Bob Clay, Bristol, Tenn.; Dr. Woodard, Bristol, Tenn.; John Pace, Bristol, Tenn.; Bob Bradley, Rogersville, Tenn.; Hugh Fain, Rogersville.

FRIDAY, JULY 14, 1911. Chas. H. Burrill. On Wednesday morning when the news reached Nashville that Mr. Chas, H. Burrill had passed away those who understood his case best were not surprised. In fact his friends here had been expecting just such news for several months. But be that as it may, all who knew him had such high regard for him that many could not hide the evidences of emotion. Mr. Burrill was a remarkable man. He was intelligent and well informed, but there were no signs of selfishness in his makeup. He was a close student of events and was blessed with a memory that could well be envied by anyone. As a printer he had few equals. When we say printer we do not mean a mere knowledge of setting type, but the making of a book or a program or a letter-head, a calling card, etc., etc., etc., and the doing of that thing in a way that would please the master printer as well as the fastidious customer. He believed in thoroughness. No task was ever so hard as to tax his patience and he never was in too big a hurry to stop and make a correction. These principles he endeavored to instill into those with whom he came in contact. The young printer always found a friend in Chas. H. Burrill. He delighted to give the young men the benefit of his years of experience in the printing business. Every spare moment during the day he could be found going from room to room instructing the apprentices in some of the fundamental principles of the craft. Mr. Burrill made those around him feel that in him they had a friend and a safe counsellor. The young Negro printers of the south would show a just appreciation of a man who in truth gave the best of his life to their training if they would erect a monument to the memory of Charles H. Burrill. In years to come the question will be asked, Who first gave the Negroes in the South a knowledge of printing? and there might be some one who would delight to have such an honor conferred upon them, but the truth is what the world wants to know, and the only way for the truth to be known is for the generation of today to establish the facts in a way that will be enduring. A monument stands in Boston to the memory of Crispus Attucks because he gave his life for freedom's cause, as truly so can it be said that Chas. H. Burrill gave his life that the sons and daughters of a despised people might have a knowledge of the art that leads men into the light of the higher civilization Who Are Our Friends? With the adjournment of the Fifty-seventh General Assembly there passed into history an organization that was notable in more ways than one. In the first place it was composed of four factions, namely: democrats, disgruntled democrats, republicans and illly-white republicans. Nobody could tell just what move would be the next made, so to speak, on the checker board. The Negroes have had both factions on trial, and the jurors are getting their report ready. Before the verdict is rendered we desire to call attention to some few things. When the campaign howlers went out last fall to preach to the Negroes their text was, "We are Your Best Friends." That was a splendid text and we believe every one who made the statement did so in all sincerity, but the test had not been applied. Now the storm is over and the record is upon what judgment must be rendered. The rank and file of the Negroes in Tennessee have buried their desires for office holding and instead are centering their efforts upon material progress. First of all they want to educate their children and they want are essential in character building; they want to make of them loyal and industrious citizens, assets to the state rather than mere parasites. To do this, it is conceded that a first-class well-equipped industrial college is needed, where the young men and women can learn how to do things as well as teach them. A splendid beginning had been made in this direction and it was up to the recent General Assembly to push the work to a final conclusion or to at least do everything possible in that direction. But this was not done, and what the Negro voters want to know, is who is responsible for the failure of the bills that were introduced making a small appropriation for the Negro Normal and the bill to pay the same institution that portion of Morrell Fund which has been going to the University of Tennessee for 10 these many years. By a glance at the votes taken on these bills it can be clearly seen that the large majority of those who voted against them were republicans and independent democrats. It is also said that Gov. Hooper used his influence against the appropriations. There can be reasonable claims made for injecting politics into this measure. It was a case where all should have felt interested and duty bound to support the bills. The Negroes without exception are heartily in accord on this matter, and since about as many supported the fushionist element as did the regular democrats it was the merest folly to split partisan differences over the matter. It is claimed that the regular democrats were endeavoring to catch the Negro vote; this we do not believe to be true, for all politicians in Tennessee have learned ere this that the Negro in this state has learned to vote as his conscience leads. It can be said, however, that the regulars showed more courage in this case, and if the charge of vote fishing was indulged in at all it was on the other side. The Negro voters will not forget this transaction; they all wanted the appropriations made for the normal and cannot but look with disfavor on the acts of those men who voted against them. The Washington Bee is charging about an editorial association, and attempts to discredit the National Negro Press Association. What we need to do is to carry to a conclusion the start we have made. The quiet manner in which the Pythian Grand Lodge was conducted is to be commended. The meetings that are to follow should catch the spirit. Hoke Smith has been elected to the United States Senate. We hope lynchings will decrease in Georgia with his absence. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS SHALL WE CELEBRATE. In a little over two months communities of progressive Negroes throughout the Nation will celebrate the promulgation of the Emancipation Proclamation. Why not Charleston? Here there is the largest collection of Negroes to be found in any community in the State. There are more teachers, more professional men, more business men, more fraternal societies, more school houses and more churches than in any other city in West Virginia. With all this Charleston has not had an Emancipation celebration for years. --- peak, fac- gethe call There can be no doubt that these celebrations serve a useful purpose. They are a reminder of the depths from which the race came and em- phasize the height to which it has risen. They stimulate race pride and encourage to greater achievements along all material lines. pointed Chairman partment of the tion. Dr. Green executive ability cessfully putting attractive exhibit at any of the gr Mrs. M. E. Ha The Advocate proposed last year that the several fraternal societies get together through representatives and formulate plans for an Emancipation Celebration on a scale in keeping with the significance of the occasion and the ability of those who would celebrate. There might be the usual parade followed by an outing at the park where some distinguished member of the race would deliver an appropriate address. The expenses of such a celebration could be defrayed by charging a small admission to the park, and the surplus which would be considerable if the affair is properly managed, could be turned over to some charitable institution or otherwise disposed of as the committee might elect. All are agreed that an Emancipation Celebration should be held. It remains only for some person or organization to take the initiative. Whoever that person or organization may be, he may start out with the assurance of The Advocate's support. Our only condition is that the matter be undertaken in good faith by a responsible party. Shall we celebrate? —The Advocate (Charleston, W. V.). Judging from the noise over in Nashville, there is something doing at Fisk University. Six colored teachers have been let out and their places are to be filled by white teachers. The protest is on, and it will be hot for the white president if he does appoint white teachers to fill their places.—The (San Antonio, Tex). Weekly Hustler. DON'T GO OFF HALF-COCKED. It seems that the election of Drs. Bowen and Crogman to the presidency, respectively, of Gammon Seminary and Clark University, began a never-ending trouble and wrangle. It is considerably distressing to see in the daily newspapers that the Negro members of the Trustee Board of this great institution, are contemplating resigning for imaginary causes. This information must have been handed to the press by some Negro member of the Board. The school is entitled to the best services and the best men as teachers, trustees and overseers. The question of color ought not to cut any figure in the selection of the teachers. The money raised for the maintenance of the school comes most largely from white people, and if the white people are willing to counter the sentiment and engage in the uplift of the race, it little becomes the Negroes themselves to raise the color line. The Independent is not in possession of the real facts, and we are not attempting to fix the blame or responsibility, but as a factor in the community life, we feel called upon to warn the Trustees of color not to go off half-cocked, and to stay out of the press; settle their matters so far as possible, within the Trustee board. No good or benefit can come from airing their grievances or troubles in the newspapers. The Trustees want to be certain they are right then go ahead. If it is true that President Idleman wants to displace the Negro teachers with white teachers, as alleged, the Trustee Board ought to have sense enough to know that it cannot be done by the President alone, and that the election of the teachers or faculty is a function loured in the Trustee Board and that they will be present and participate in the displacement. Another thing they ought to take into consideration before they act is, if the President proposes to make this recommendation, whether the efficiency of the service will be improved by the displacement. If the school can secure a superior service by having white teachers, the school is entitled to it. The best interest of the school is to be taken care of, not the best interest of the teachers. Yet the Independent does not want to be understood as opposing colored capability, but we want to be understood as standing first for the highest efficiency or service at Gammon Seminary and Clark University. The Trustees' threat to resign wi. do the school more harm than good, and the public will accept their threats as a baff. The Negro has not yet reached that degree of intelligence and sensibility where he will resent an infringement of his rights with his resignation, that is, if his position brings to him emolument, either in the shape of money or honors. Let the Negro Trustees wait until the Board meets and present their grievances in the proper way, not in the columns of the newspaper.—The Atlanta Independent. NEGRO DEPARTMENT OF THE APPALACHIAN EXPOSITION IN GOOD HANDS. Dr. H. M. Green has again been ap- pointed Chairman of the Colored Department of the Appalachian Exposition. Dr. Green demonstrated his executive ability last year by successfully putting on one of the most attractive exhibitions of its kind seen at any of the great Expositions. Mrs. M. E. Hamilton has been appointed Chairman of the Colored Women's Department. Mrs. Hamilton's ability as a leader in women's movements is well known. With these two strong leaders, the colored men and women of the Appalachian region should rally to them and make this year's exhibit better than last year's, in every respect. With last year's experience, and with the advantage of a finished building, the task this year, while arduous, is not so herculean as last year. Lawyer D. W. Perkins, the assistant Chairman, also deserves the recognition received, because of the invaluable work done last year. He is the right man for the place. As only two months remain to have exhibits installed and ready for the opening, it is well for those interested to begin with it at once, that everything be complete on the opening day of the Exposition—East Tennessee News.

Mr. Worley, who has been a leader of the House for several years and who is a straight Democrat, took the lead in this fight for the cause of education for the Negro. He was attacked on all sides by the Republicans and Independents who opposed the bill, by a rapid fire of deflecting questions, but with his strong and eloquent power of debate he mowed them down right and left. Representative Thompson, of Rhea County, an Independent, made a vicious attack on the bill and on Mr. Worley for defending it, but the very ready member from Sullivan turned a volley of facts and oratory loose on him and he has not found his voice since. Among the many things Mr. Worley said were: "When the black man of Tennessee was trying hardest to help himself and educate his race, the party which pretended to be his friend (the Republican party) was pushing him backward and refusing him aid from sources which he had helped to create."

That the party which boasted of lifting from the Negro the yoke of slavery now pushed down upon their necks the yoke of illiteracy by refusing to help them educate. In conclusion he said that the black man was making rapid strides; that he loved the South because the South was his home and the southern man was his friend. He said that the South, instead of wanting to exile the Negro, wanted to educate him. He made an appeal to the Fusionists that in memory of the old black mammy and Uncle Tom, who stood guard over a million Southern homes, while the white men were shedding their blood on as many battle-fields, to not deny them such golden opportunities.

The biggest celebration that Nashville or the county of Davidson has ever experienced was the result of that day. Many people visited both parks. Special programs were pulled off at each place but the largest and most enthusiastic crowd was at Greenwood. The drawing card was nature's handicap work in the park itself. There was the Military Guard unattached of the Tennessee National Guard, under the command of Captain Henry Bowman and Lieutenants C. O. Hadley and Moses Collier. The Uniform Rank of the K. of P. under Sir Knight Capt. J. H. Kelly. The Uniform Rank gave a beautiful exhibition drill and the companies pulled off a sham battle in the afternoon. The crowd was so immense at this performance that it filled the grand stand and banked both sides of the baseball park one-half of its distance. A conservative estimate places the attendance at 10,000. They came in every kind of conveyance. Vehicles of every description, automobiles galore, pedestrians by the thousands, because the street car company was unable to accommodate the throng. The superintendent of the street car company, Mr. Davis, declares that every abailable car that could be run was in operation. It is claimed that 15,000 people rode on the Fairfield line on that day. From the entrance of the park back beyond the baseball ground was a great amphitheatre of a surging mass of pleasure-seekers. It was 10:30 o'clock at night when the street car company decided that the only way to get the people back to the city was to use the double-truck cars such as are used on Woodland, West Nashville, Cherry and College and Beuna Vista lines.
