BAPTIST STATE GONVENTION
IS HOLDING SWAY IN CLARKSVILLE.
Over 500 Delegates Present.
PRESIDENTS SEARCY AND HAMILTON READ ANNUAL ADDRESSES — ENROLLMENT COMMITTEE APPOINTED — INTRODUCTORY SERMON BY DR. ELDRIDGE, OF KNOXVILLE—IMPORTANT MATTERS TO COME BEFORE THIS BODY—TIME OF MEETING WILL BE CHANGED—AIM IS FOR CAUSE OF EDUCATION.
Special to the Globe:
Clarksville, Tenn., July 19—The twenty-fourth annual convention of Tennessee Colored Baptists is being held here in the Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist Church. There are more than 500 delegates present.
President T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, called the convention to order at 9 o'clock, and after delivering a short address appointed the following Enrollment Committee: Dr. A. M. Townsend, Prof. W. S. Thompson, Revs. J. C. Fields, H. M. Burns and G. W. Woodson.
Devotional exercises were conducted by Revs. J. Slaughter, of the Stone River Association, and Dr. D. L. Gains, of the Loudon District Association.
Short talks were made by a number of delegates, and the introductory sermon was preached by Rev. S. T. Eldridge, of Knoxville.
The feature of the afternoon session was the annual address of President Searcy and that of the President of the Woman's Auxiliary, Mrs. M. T. Hamilton. Dr. T. J. Townsend, pastor of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, Nashville, responded to the address of welcome made by Rev. E. M. Seymour, pastor of Mt. Olivet Missionary Baptist Church.
The conventional sermon at night was preached by Rev. H. G. Harris, of the Onion River Association.
The Convention this year promises to eclipse any that has been held in this state. The Baptists of Tennessee are awakening to the great responsibilities resting upon them as a denomination, and from Carter to Shelby, the watch-word is "Progress." Education will be one of the principal features to receive consideration at this meeting. The Baptists operate the three educational institutions in the state, one in West Tennessee, one in the central section and one in the East. The people of the West feel that they have a special duty to perform to the school in their section; the same is true of the people of the eastern part of the state; but be that as it may, special pressure is being brought to bear to interest all of the Baptists in centering their energies to make Roger Williams, at Nasville, a gigantic university that will compare favorably with other Baptist universities throughout the country. The denomination in Tennessee has a special pride in Roger Williams, and many of them have been heard, since this meeting convened, to express the hope that Roger Williams will some day occupy the place in the education of the Negro youth of the Baptist denomination that it did before the disastrous fire of a few years ago. It seems to be the concensus of opinion that all three of the institutions should be supported, but that Howe and Nelson Merry should be used as feeders for Roger Williams.
Among the new moves that will be inaugurated at this convention, is the change of the date of sitting. Instead of meeting in July, as has been the custom for years, the President recommended in his annual address that the date be changed to some time in September. This change is recommended in order that as many of the District Associations and Sunday-School Conventions as possible may be held before the sitting of the State Convention. The object of this plan is to interest all the Conventions and Associations more largely in educational work, and that the State Convention may be
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1911.
able to know at its sitting just how the educational feature of the denominational work is the state is progressing and what the outlook is for the incoming school term. Also it is stated that Tennessee will be in better position to represent herself creditably at the National Convention. It is said that all of the leading Baptists and laymen of the state favor this change, and it is expected that it will be made without opposition. The changing of the date from July to September will force the present State Secretary, Prof. W. S. Thompson, to resign his position, as his school work as principal of Meigs School, in Nashville, will require all of his time while the Convention will be in session.
Since it is the plan of the supporters of the change to hold the session of the Convention between the 1st and 15th of the month in order to get out of the way of the way of the National meeting. The public schools open the second Monday of September of each year. This means that the Convention and school opening will occur about the same time. The Baptists will reluctantly give up Prof. Thompson as Secretary, for it is known throughout the state that he is thoroughly competent, and he is also very popular with the ministry as well as with the laity. Just who will fill this place is not known, but some competent man will be found to carry on that feature of the work.
The meetings are being largely attended. Each incoming train brings a big bunch of delegates and visitors, and it is expected that Sunday will witness one of the largest gatherings ever seen in Clarksville. The entertainment committee has made ample provision for the comfort of the guests. Every train is met by a steering committee, who sees to it that the delegates are sent to their homes and comfortably situated. All denominations are working together for the entertainment of the Convention, and the white people as well show unusual cordiality toward the Negro Baptists of the state. Prominent among the visitors are Dr. Bell, of Chattanooga, one of the leading pastors in the state; Rev. Hall, of Memphis; Dr. W. S. Ellington, Editorial Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of Nashville; Dr. C. H. Clark, Chairman of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of Nashville; Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, of Nashville; Rev. David Howard, of Pulaski, and many visiting divines from other states. The Convention will continue its sessions day and night all of this week, closing out Monday. Sunday will be a big Educational Rally Day, to be held in the afternoon. In the morning the leading Baptist ministers will fill the pulpits of various churches. The meeting, from every point of view, has been a great success so far, and if the present interest and enthusiasm is kept up, it will surpass any meeting of its kind ever held in Clarksville, and will be of untold good to this community.
BUSSELL—TYREE.
A marriage, beautiful in its solemnization, lovely in its simplicity, and of much social interest, was that of Miss Carrie Belle Tyree, the youngest daughter of Bishop and Mrs. Evans Tyree, and Dr. Joseph W. Russell, of Jackson, Miss.
The impressive marriage ceremony of the A. M. E. Church was quietly solemnized at the Episcopal residence of Bishop Evans Tyree on North Hill street last Wednesday evening, July 19th, at 8 o'clock. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. Church, officiating.
Although no cards were issued, the beautiful and capacious residence of Bishop Tyree, which was tastefully decorated with ferns and palms, was well filled with many of the intimate friends of the family.
As a preliminary to the ceremony itself, Miss Alberta Davis sang "My Rosary," and Miss Amanda Belle Perkins sang "All That I Ask," Miss Lucille Gleanes at the piano.
Both young ladies were in good voice, and their singing was very pleasing to the guests.
To the ever welcome strain of Mendelssohn's Wedding March, the bridesmaid, Miss Alberta A. Tyree, sister of the bride, came in on the arm of Dr. Russell, the groom. They were preceded by winsome little Miss Annie D. Anderson, who as flower girl was one of the pretty sights of the occasion.
Then followed the bride on the arm of Mr. W. M. Jones, the groomsman.
The bride wore a lovely creation of cream silk crepe medior trimmed with pearl fringe and baby Irish lace. and a veil caught with orange blossoms. She carried a beautiful shower bou-
OPPORTUNITIES OF NASHVILLE
THE SLOGAN OF EVERY BODY YOU MEET
Signs of a Greater Nashville Visible.
BLACK AND WHITE, GREAT AND SMALL, OLD AND YOUNG, ALL HAVE THE PASSWORD—BUREAU OF PUBLICITY ISSUES STATEMENT—TELLS SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT NASHVILLE—COST OF LIVING IS LOW—RENTS ARE LOWER HERE THAN ELSEWHERE MEAT TRUSTS CANNOT DIC TATE PRICES—COAL FIELDS NEAR.
This statement upon the part of the Nashville Industrial Bureau, even when backed by the many incontrovertable facts that they can easily adduce in support of our "slogan," will not prove as effective upon strangers as an intimate knowledge of these opportunities upon the part of the people themselves.
Every Nashville man ought to at once familiarize himself thoroughly with Nashville's advantages and never lose a chance to exhibit this knowledge to any stranger. Every citizen ought to constitute himself a reservoir of Nashville facts and use them for Nashville's good whenever with Nashville's advantages and chance permits.
It is this home knowledge and appreciation that begets the spirit or atmosphere that results in having every shoulder to the wheel, and makes every man much more than a "boster" for it and makes him an authoritative encyclopedia that is wonderfully impressive.
The first of the advantages that the bureau points out to interested investigators is this: "The cost of livin is low in Nashville."
Do you know that this is a fact, a fact pregnant with enormous possibilities; and why it is a fact?
Do you know that rents are lower here for the same class of houses than in any other city approximating its size in the South?
Do you know that in spite of all the talk going the rounds of the country about the greed of the meat trust, that this same trust has never been able to dictate prices in Nashville because of the splendid cattle-raising country all about us and the abundance and fine quality of home-grown meats?
Do you know that we are surrounded by the finest truck gardening country in the world, where complete crop failures are unknown, and where everything is grown that can be grown anywhere else except in the tropics? There are twenty-five different vegetables found in our gardens.
Do you know that our nearness to the great coal fields of Western Kentucky and Tennessee give us a wonderful advantage over other cities in fuel matters?
All of these statements are facts easily demonstrated. Verify them, get them at your finger tips, talk them over with your friends, and when opportunity offers, pass them on to some stranger or truth-seeker looking for a place to locate.
We are fortunate possessors of many great advantages, but they will be worth vastly more to use when the world knows about them.
Other opportunities that Nashville offers will be mentioned in these columns from time to time. Watch for them.

PREJUDICE AT ANN ARBOR.
Lapsley Finally Placed on Track
Team of Famous Institution.
Ann Arbor, Mich.—Lapsley, a colored sprinter, will be given a place on the University of Michigan track team this year. He is given place on the track team not because of his ability as an all round athlete and his fitness for just the work, for the working of color prejudice came very nearly beating him out of it. He is given his place by reason of the fact that two colored law students, seniors, interested themselves in his behalf and in behalf of justice and saw to it that justice was done.
After repeated trials for place on the track team and Lapsley had outdistanced all his fellows he was compelled to run against the captain of the team, a record holder, who was likewise outdistanced. Fear of unpleasantness while the team is on the road, the inconvenience of having to provide separate hotel accommodations in some cities, was given as good reason why Lapsley should not be given place on the team.
Richard Hill, Jr., a senior law student from Nashville, Tenn., with another law student, approached President Hutchins, who with Dean Reed, discussed the matter freely with the aggressive champions of fair play. The faculty, President Hutchins declared, was powerless to act in the matter, since the division of athletics was under the direct control of the board of regents. The young men were referred to Mr. Bartleme, the head of the athletic department, who President Hutchins declared was a fair and square man.
When approached by the young men with reference to Lapsley's case Mr. Bartleme expressed his intention to deal fairly in the matter and expressed sympathy with the colored students of Ann Arbor, who often suffered from the narrow mindedness and prejudice of the other students. He stated that the reason Lapsley had not been placed on the team before was more because of the conditions they would meet elsewhere than at Ann Arbor.
Colored students at Ann Arbor are very much pleased with the result of the unsolicited action on the part of Mr. Hill and join more heartily in making him their racial hero. Mr. Hill was also elected recently treasurer of the Jeffersonian society.
Mr. Hill is the son of Prof. Richard Hill, of this city, and has gained distinction highly commendable since he entered the Michigan University. He was recently admitted to practice in all the courts of the state of Michigan, including the Supreme Court.

STRATTON NOW BOARD MEMBER
STRATTON NOW BOARD MEMBER
TAKES I. B. TIGRETT'S PLACE AS SEC'Y.
Memphis Man Seated by Commissioners
ALMOST ALL COUNTY BOARDS ARE CHOSEN AT LONG ROUTINE SESSION—BODY ADJOURNS TO COMPLETE WORK THIS MORNING—TIGRETT WAS WILLING TO RESIGN—ELECTION COMMISSIONERS FOR DAVIDSON COUNTY—THOMP-DAVIDSON COUNTY—THOMPSON, MARSHALL, LUCK—PROGRAM CARRIED OUT AS HAD BEEN OUTLINED.
The state board of election commissioners perfected reorganization and appointed county commissioners for all except a very few of the counties at the meeting of the body held in the supreme court chambers Wednesday afternoon. At 6 p. m. the body adjourned until 10 o'clock Thursday morning.
The program of the board was carried out as had been outlined, Leslie M. Stratton, the choice of the regular democrats to represent their faction, being elected to succeed I. B. Tigrett, of Jackson. Mr. Tigrett was in Nashville, but did not appear at the meeting. There was a large number of politicians and citizens interested in the meeting present from over the state.
A conference was held during the morning at the Hermitage hotel between S. M. Young, James Maynard and Mr. Tigrett, at which the last reiterated his willingness to resign from the board in favor of Mr. Stratton. Mr. Tigrett's position was that he was willing to serve if necessary, but preferred resigning. The election of Mr. Stratton by the two members of the board makes his place legal, as there had been some question as to the legality of his election by the general assembly after a quorum in the house had been broken.
Stratton is Elected.
Chairman Young called the board to order at 2:30 p. m., Mr. Stratton being present. Mr. Maynard read the minutes of the meetings held in Nashville on May 8 and 9, 24 and 25 and June 5 and 6. Mr. Maynard stated that Mr. Tigrett had expressed the wish that he be not asked to serve on the commission. He moved Mr. Tigrett's place on the board be declared vacant and his successor be elected. Carried. On his nomination Mr. Stratton was elected until the next meeting of the legislature. Mr. Stratton took the oath and qualified for the position.
On reorganization Mr. Young was elected chairman and Mr. Stratton secretary of the board. Immediately the body began the work of selecting the county boards.
Following is the list of those appointed in different counties (the few counties being passed over or not reached to be filled this morning:
In each instance the first person named is the nominee of Mr. Stratton, regular; the second, Mr. Young's, Independent democrat; the third, Mr. Maynard's, republican.

SIXTH ANNUAL PICNIC
The eighteenth day of July has become a memorable one in the history of the National Baptist Publishing House. For six consecutive years the employees of that institution have on the above date enjoyed their annual picnic. On Tuesday morning all was astir and the employees and the friends wended their way to the Publishing House, where special cars were waiting to carry the jolly crowd away from the cares and toils of the world for one day.
The weather was ideal, pleasant zephers were blowing as the cars pulled out early in the morning for beautiful Greenwood Park. Mirth and jollity reigned throughout the entire day, for there was nothing to mar the occasion or decrease the mirth of the picnickers. The park, which is continually being improved, has received so much added improvement until on Tuesday it was a veritable Eden. The entire park, which is one carpet of green, dotted with shrubbery and flowers throughout, presented a picture of loveliness that was a feast and treat to all present. The many fountains of sparkling water, conveniently located all over the grounds, were great solaces of comfort to those assembled. From early morning until late at night happy throngs of joyous children, beautiful maidens with their gallants, mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, came out in buggies, autos, on special and regular cars, and some even walked, to spend a care-free day.
As has been customary for several years, the First Baptist Church, of which Rev. W. S. Ellington is pastor, joined the publishing house force at the park and all blended into one harmonious whole and enjoyed an ideal day in historic Greenwood Park.
At 3 o'clock the program as scheduled was begun. The merchants and individuals throughout the city gave handsome prizes to be awarded to successful contestants in the various numbers programed. Fun galore was at its height. The program opened with a baseball game between the Yanagans and Colts. This proved a most interesting feature. The Yanagans, managed by Mr. John H. Kelly, Jr., were the winners. The Colts were managed by Mr. Archie Pointer. Both teams presented nice work, each team showing the work of their respective managers. Five innings were played and the game closed with a score of 17 to 12 in favor of the Yanagans. The other numbers on program were running, jumping and blindfolded races for ladies and gentlemen, and children's races of many kinds.
At twilight the joyous hundreds of merry pleasure-seekers started on the way to their various homes after spending a most delightful day at beautiful Greenwood Park.
DEPUTY SHERIFF HELD FOR MURDEK.
Arthur Fischer Shot at White Man,
But Struck Negro.
Arthur Fischer, aged 25 years, a deputy under Sheriff Borum, gave himself up to the police Friday night of last week and was locked up on the charge of murder, following the death of Oscar Schute, colored, whom Fischer accidently shot on the morning of the Fourth of July, while shooting at a white man on Third avenue, North. Fischer was on bond under two charges of assault with a pistol with attempt to commit murder, one sworn out by Schute, who died, and the other by Oscar Warren, the man at whom Fischer was shooting at the time he fatally wounded the colored man. Schute's brother, Jim Schute, appears as prosecutor on the murder charge.
Fischer, who is a telegraph operator, is the son of William B. Fischer. He lives with his family at 4035 Jefferson street. He has been a deputy sheriff for some time.
The prisoner is very willing to tell of the shooting which led to the death of Mr. Schute, and contends that he is entirely blameless in the matter. He states that he and some friends met Warren on the street, and that Warren, for some unknown reason, insulted him. Later, when he and his friends entered a near-beer saloon to get a drink Fischer states Warren followed him into the place and again insulted him, cursing him in the most foul language. When they walked out into the street, Fischer states Warren made at him with his hand in his pocket, and he then drew his pistol and fired to frighten him. Warren continued to advance, however, he states, and he

then fired at him. The bullet missed Warren, struck a post, and glancing off struck Schute in the body. Fischer was arrested and the wounded man taken to the city hospital, where it was at first thought he would get well, and he was discharged from the hospital: however, after being operated on for the extraction of the bullet he became rapidly worse and died Friday afternoon. Fischer states that the pistol which he was carrying did not belong to him, but he was merely carrying it for a friend, who wished him to give it to some one. He states that he had absolutely nothing against the man whom he killed, but in fact he had known him for some time and liked him well.

Nashville Streets.
A suggestion has been made that
$5,000,000 be spent in the improve-
ment of the streets of Nashville,
‘This suggestion was made by a man
who is in the position to know what
this city is able to do and also to
see her needs. It is an indisputa-
ble fact that Nashville is fast forging
ahead with the leading cities of the
South, and with her geographical
location and natural resources she is
in a position to command the atten-
tion of the business world. Other
cities of the South have grown in
leaps and bounds during the last
few years. Most conspicuous among
these are Birmingham and Atlanta.
Memphis has also grown rapidly, but
the last census showed that that city
had been greatly overrated. Birming-
ham and Atlanta held their own and,
in fact, went beyond the expectations
of most people. Nashville made a
heroic effort to boost her census fig-
ures and the showing is one that
every citizen of this city should be
proud of. But, be that as it may, the
fact remsins that the people of this
city have not exerted themselves to
the full extent of their abillty to
make Nashville the greatest city in
the South. It dawns upon the busi.
ness men now that if this city is to
hold the prestige she has already
gained and at the same time keep
pace with the progress.of the South,
many improvements must be made,
Notable among these improvements
needed is a good system of streets.
For years and years pedestrians
and people driving in various kinds
of vehicles have noticed the bad con:
dition of our streets and sidewalks
Thousands of horses have been
strained to death by the holes an¢
rough places over which the wagons
have been pulled, the old, worn-out
brick sidewalks have been the cause
of many an ankle sprain, and ther
are sections thickly populated wher¢
there are neither paved streets nor
sidewalks. This city cannot grow it
such a condition, consequently, th
men who have the welfare of the city
at heart are seeking a remedy, and i
must be admitted that when Mr
Joseph Frank, president of the Boar
of Trade, made the suggestion tha
the people of Nashville spend $5,000,
000 on her streets, he did not do si
without first giving the matter care
ful consideration.
Can the taxpayers of Nashville af
ford to invest that amount in stree
paving? We believe they can, bu
at the same time, another questio
suggests itself that is just as impor
tant to the welfare of the people a
good streets, and that is good sewer:
When we think of spending $5,000
000 for paving streets, we should als
take into consideration that where th
most of this money would be spen
sewers are needed now, and also i
many sections where we have exce
Tent streets and sidewalks we hav
no sewers. It may be in the min
of Mr. Frank to carry with the stre¢
building idea also the building of
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1911.
complete sewer system, or in other
words, extending and improving the
system we now have. If these two
things are to be worked together and
at the same time, we believe $5,000,-
000 invested in that way would be
wisely spent. Streets add to the
beauty and convenience of a city, and
they are needed, but at the same time
sewers add to the health of the peo-
ple and are just as important. While
we are making preparations té repair
and extend our streets we should also
look after our sewers. These ard
two questions that every citizen
should relaize that they are vitally
interested in, whether they are prop-
erty owners or not, they are citizens
of this city and it is their bounden
duty to take an active part in every-
thing that pertains to its betterment.
“Grave Injustice.
SS! SEN ere ee eer eee
was arrested on a Jefferson street car
by a policeman in citizen’s clothes.
In the city court the policeman
charged the boy with making re-
marks while on the street car about
some white people, It is said the boy
stated he would not give up, his seat
for any “white trash.” When the po-
liceman arrested the boy and while
waiting for the patrol he says the boy
sauced him. Upon this statement
of the policeman, Judge Baker fined
the boy $10. The boy in question
states that when he boarded the car
he took a seat in front of another
colored boy, by whom a white lady
was sitting. This boy was very
bright and doubtless was taken for
a white boy, but a white gentleman
came in who seems to have known that
the boy was colored, he took the va-
cant seat by the boy and asked him
to change seats with the lady, which
was done. Some one remarked that
they would not move for “white
trash,” but the boy arrested says he
did not say a word, While waiting
for the patrol the policeman cursed
himand said to him, “You are one
of those dam proper niggers,” to
which the boy said, “Yes, I am prop-
er.” He and the policeman talked
freely. The boy says he did not know
he was a policeman as he was in ci-
ee clothes, and admits that he
did talk right to his head. But if he
had been dressed in uniform this boy
knew that the policeman had no right
to curse him nor to abuse him, and
it was natural that he would resent
it. Any boy his age would have done
the same thing, and instead of the
boy being fined, the policeman should
have been dismissed from the force
for his treatment toward this child,
But instead the Judge of the Police
Court fined the boy $10.
This same judge is now asking the
people of Nashville to re-elect him
for another term. His record is well
known in this city and needs no dis.
cussion at this time. It would be
worth while for the Negroes of this
city to remember how they have been
treated in the police court and what
little consideration their rights have
been given, The place to correct
such evils is at the ballot box. There
are scores of men in Nashville whe
are courageous and fair, and we nee¢
as a judge of the city court just such
aman. The actions of the policemen
are based largely upon the attitude
of the city judge. If he is a man whe
will take their word for everything
without listening to the statement o!
the accused, it is to be expected tha'
the policemen will abuse and beat
up persons whom they have no righ
| to. We have had many cases lik
| this, and even worse to come befor
| this court, and if the Negroes o
Nashville sit idly by and allow thi
| man to ‘be re-elected as city judge
|they can blame nobody but them-
selves and will not deserve the pro
| tection that citizens should receiv
'| from the hands of the executors of th
i law.
Indiscretion.
In this southland of ours there
live side by side a black race and a
white race. They have lived together
here hundreds of years. Most of that
time the people of the white race were
the owners of the people of the black
race, As time rolled on, conditions
changed and through a providential
method the slaves were set free and
thrown out upon their own resources.
They were required to take their
places by the side of the race that
had had thousands of years of civill-
zation, The laws that governed one
governed all. The duties that rested
upon one rested upon the other, It
will not require a learned person to
‘decide which of these two races
should be the stronger, nor which of
‘the two should be the possessors of
‘the wealth of the country. Further-
more, it is easy to decide which of
these two races has the advantage
of dictating the policy of this coun-
try. Nevertheless, it is a fact that
the Negroes of the South and the
white people of the South do under-
stand each other thoroughly, and with
this understanding they have been
abie to get along with less friction
than any two peoples under similar
circumstances in the world, This be-
ing true, it does seem that some of
the Negro people at times are very
indiscreet..
One of the greatest faults we have
as a people is the habit of talking
about things that do not concern us
and which we cannot change, which,
if they were changed, would not bene-
fit us as a race, If the white peo-
ple choose to do a thing that is for
their convenience and are going to
pay for it with their own money, what
right have Negroes to object and
what does it profit them if they do?
‘It only makes enemies where they
“would have friends. It makes no dif-
ference however objectionable it may
be to the Negroes if {t is not trespass-
ing upon their rights as free citizens,
we fail to see where there is any
cause for complaint. It would be a
wiser, plan to let those things alone
‘that belong to other folks and con-
‘centrate our energies on those things
that belong to us, and strive to make
for ourselves those things that we
need and for which we are able to
pay. %
A man with a capital of $10,000 is
hardly able to own an automobile un-
less he has the same for business
purposes, neither is he able to invest
his money in air ships and yachts,
for these things are for the people
who have more money than they
have time. Jf we would invest our
money in the things in our reach
and in a way that would benefit the
individual and the race as well, it
would be more profitably spent than
[st is when we spend the same in
| useless lawsuits protesttng in_ the
|courts where the decision must be
jrendered by a man or the friends o}
jthe man against whom we are pro
| testing. This glibbiness on the part
jof the Negro race is doing more t¢
| weaken and hold us back than any
| thing we practice, and also ofter
| causes conflicts between members 0
the black race and the white race
If as a people we would learn to work
more and talk less, we would in a fev
years see a great change in our de
yelopment and we would have mor
friends among the white people o
the South and the North as well.
Nashville's opportunities are being]

were sold in New York today by slot
machines. The machines worked
splendidly on their first trial.
The latest vending machines for
newspapers is the invention of O. J.
Hotaling, a machinist. With his
brother, Arthur Hotaling, he expects
to revolutionize the newspaper selling
business through the use of slot ma-
chines which are simple to work, all
the mechanism being set in motion

NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. JULY 21. 1911.
St. Louis, Mo., July 17.—Extensive preparations are being made for the eighth annual session of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, which is to convene in St. Louis, Mo., July 26-30. The program which has been made out by President W. T. B. Williams and his officers has for its scope a work comprising every phase of education in any way concerning our people.
On Wednesday evening the welcome addresses and responses will be given, together with the address of President Williams. Thursday will be devoted largely to Elementary Education.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon at the great Coliseum on Washington avenue addresses will be given by Hon. William P. Evans, State Superintendent of Education, and Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of the Tuskegee Institute. Gov. Hadley has also been invited to speak at this meeting.
Since admission to the Coliseum is free, it is expected that the entire seating capacity of 10,000 will be taken. Already St. Louis and the whole State of Missouri are at white heat in preparation for this great St. Louis meeting.

DISTINGUISHED VISITOR COMING.
The ladies of the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs are arranging for the coming of the President of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, Miss Elizabeth C. Carter of New Bedford, Mass., who is on a lecturing tour of the South and West.
Miss Carter will reach the city August 2nd, remaining here until August 4th, thence to Memphis.
The ladies are preparing to entertain Miss Carter Wednesday evening, August 2nd. The lecture will be delivered on the evening of August 3rd. This promises to be a great treat to those interested in the work of women. The place for the lecture has not been named, but all will be duly notified. It is earnestly hoped that the public will turn out in large numbers. We emphasize the fact that every woman will do well to hear this great woman. No admission fee will be charged to hear the lecture.
STUDYING IN NORTHERN .HOSPITAL.
Mr. D. E. Blake has been in Columbus, Ohio, about two months, where he is taking some special work in
electro-therapy and X Ray treatment. He is also specializing in the Grant Hospital of that city in surgery. Mr. Blake is to be congratulated upon his splendid opportunity of being connected with this institution where he has the advantage of seeing on an average ten operations daily. In addition to this he comes under the direct influence of twenty-five competent specialists who are connected with the hospital.
A NEW BOOK BY SUTTON E.
GRIGGS.
Sutton E. Griggs, known to the public as the author of "Imperium In Imperio," "Overshadowed," "Unfettered," "The Hindered Hand," "Pointing the Way," and "The One Great Question," has just completed his eighth book, "Wisdom's Call," which is now ready for distribution. In view of Mr. Griggs' reputation as an entertaining writer and original thinker, his new book will be welcomed with keen interest.
Some of the ablest minds in America have asserted that Mr. Griggs was too profound a thinker to make himself thoroughly understood in fiction, and following their advice he has written in a straightforward way, no longer using the story to convey his thoughts. The result of the change is that a genuine sensation is in store for the American people, for Mr. Griggs has gone down into the heart of the race question as never before. White and colored, men and women, north and south, who have seen advance sheets of the work say that Mr. Griggs' presentation is so clear, so thorough, so absolutely profound that there is not a shade of doubt as to the tremendous influence the book is compelled to have on the thinking of the American people.
GOES TO LAST REWARD.
On Friday night, July 14th, inst., death claimed Mr. Wm. H. McCauley, of Huntsville, Ala. The deceased was one of the oldest citizens of this town, having attained the ripe age of seventy-five years, forty-three of which were spent in the service of Christ. He was a faithful member of the A. M. E. Church, from which his funeral was held. He was a loyal citizen, well-beloved by all who knew him as was attested by the large gathering that witnessed the funeral services and the many beautiful floral designs sent by friends.
The following sons and daughters were at the bedside when the final summons came: Rev. Wm. H. McCauley, of Chattanooga, Tenn.; Mr. Nelson McCauley, of St. Louis, Mo.; Mrs. Allen Flemmings, of St. Louis, Mrs. Mary Allen, of Memphis, Mrs. Taylor, of Huntsville, Mrs. Wm. Patterson, of Decatur, Ala., and J. C. McCauley, of Nashville, Tenn.
DR. G. HAMILTON FRANCIS
MAKES RECORD BEFORE
STATE MEDICAL BOARD.
At the recent meeting of the Virginia State Board of Medical Examiners, Dr. G. Hamilton Francis, a graduate of Meharry Medical College with the Class of 1911, was among the three applicants permitted an oral examination, the others being white representatives of great eastern schools. After having talked to certain members of the Board it was discovered that the young physician possessed more than ordinary ability and for this reason he was given an opportunity to demonstrate it before a sub-committee appointed by the Board in session at Richmond, Va., from June 21st to 23rd, inclusive. The doctor before this body acquitted himself so admirably that he was specially mentioned and recommended to the Board as being the best applicant examined.—Exchange.
MEETING OF THE CITY FEDERATION.
Notice is given of the coming visit of the National President of Women's Clubs, Miss Elizabeth Carter, to this city. This promises to be a rare treat to all who are interested in club work, especially, and to women particularly.
The Endowment Board met in Chattanooga immediately after the adjournment of the Grand Lodge. Prof. W. S. Thompson, of Nashville, was elected president and Prof. A. Thos. Hill re-elected secretary. The report made by Secretary Hill was a very exhaustive one, showing conclusively that he had given thought and attention to the affairs of his office. The financial statement shows that $36,045.78 has been received, and $15,989.91 disbursed during the past year; total amount on hand July 1, 1911, was $32,496.37.
The order has no cause to be ashamed of the record of its endowment secretary. He is ranked by those who know him as a shrewd man. The entire jurisdiction in Tennessee should take off their hats to Prof. A. Thos. Hill, who is a veritable watch dog of its treasury.

TO YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN
SEEKING AN EDUCATION.
A Word from President Walter S.
Buchanan, of the State Agricultural
and Mechanical College, Normal, Ala.
As I go about over the country, I
am impressed with the fact that there
are more good openings for young
Negroes of ability to-day than there
were ten years ago, when I began
making observation atong this line.
Rapid progress of the race along the
various industrial and commercial
iines has made openings for hundreds
jon hundreds of young men and
omen of ‘fitness and purpose, We
we a debt of gratitude to pioneer
uusiness men of the race who have
built up the many enterprises which
now offer employment to more young
people of ovr race than are proper-
ly prepared to fill them.
IT am constantly called upon to
name young men and women to go
out as clerks, stenographers, book-
Keepers, secretaries, printers, brick-
masons, tailors, blacksmiths, teach-
ers of music, seamstresses, milliners,
nurses, teachers of domestic science,
mechanics, electricians, —_ farmers,
dairymen and workers along other
lines, and I am constantly impressed
with the fact that the demand is far
greater than the supply.
Competent young men and women
are hard to find for these many po-
sitions. For instance, I can name
three places right now where teach-
ers of manual training are needed,
These places pay from sixty to sev-
enty dollars per month, yet I have
been unable to find young men to
fill them. There are at least two oth-
er places where machinists and elec-
tricians are required and where a
comfortable salary is offered, but it
is a difficult matter to find young peo-
ple sufficiently educated and skilled to
fill these positions.
We are never able to furnish as
many seamstresses and milliners as
we are called upon to furnish. Dur-
ing the last two weeks we have been
called upon to fill two large principal-
ships which require the services of
men acquainted with some line of in-
dustrial activity.
At Normal we are making a special
effort to prepare the kind of men and
women ‘that the world is constantly
calling for. We believe in combining
superior academic training with a
high grade of industrial efficiency.
We believe in giving as much as the
pupil is prepared to take in books and
at the same time start him towards
the mastery of a trade. We combine
theory with practice in such a way
that the student gets a splendid work-
ing knowledge of the reading and
drawing that he takes up in the class
room,
Young men and women of push and
purpose who want to get the right
kind of education in the shortest time
and at the least expense, will do well
to write to us for a catalogue, Every
student has to take a trade. As far
as possible we assign students to the
trades of their choice. A large num-
ber of students are given an oppor-
tunity to work out a part of their

CLEOMONT AMUSEMENT PARK IS MAKING GOOD.
Within two blocks of the end of North First street car line is situated the Cleomont Amusement Park—Liner Brothers, proprietors.
it is the coming colored park of the city, being well equipped with modern paraphernalia, and under the skillful management of the Liner Brothers, great things are to be expected.
Its Superior Advantages.
The park can be reached within twenty minutes from any convenient part of the city, and from the transfer station a car can be bead every ten minutes, and within ten minutes thereafter, anybody can be enjoying themselves in the most convenient and most accommodating park in Nashville. The beautiful pavilion has recently been fitted out and the famous dancing master, Mr. Doc Liner, will begin his dancing classes at once. Sunday afternoons you can find a place to cast off cares and enjoy a few hours in lighthearted galley. Last Sunday evening the park was largely attended by a select class of young people, notwithstanding the inclementy of the weather. East Nashville has long desired a place of recreation and the Liner Brothers have brought to pass what the people of East Nashville have so long desired. Let every one, then, show his appreciation to the proprietors, who are so zealous to requite the desires of the joy loving people.
The park is owned and manned by the Linner Brothers, and every Sun-
