Special to the Globe. Lebanon, Tenn., August 15.—The Delegated Assembly of Benevolent Orders of the State of Tennessee assembled here this morning. Over a hundred delegates from over the state are in attendance. Mrs. A. P. Ward made the welcome address on behalf of the citizens of Lebanon. Rev. Robert Page responded to the welcome address. The Grand President, Mr. Wm. Copeland, of Nashville, delivered his annual address in the afternoon. He recommended many helpful things for the betterment of the benevolent cause in this state. The address of the Vice-President, G. W. Wilson, was also instructive and helpful. The Mayor of Lebanon, Hon. J. T. Odom, addressed the assembly at the morning session. He congratulated the officials and delegates on the success the assembly has attained, and assured them that the people of Lebanon welcomed them in their midst. He said he was somewhat familiar with the work of the organization, for some of the most substantial citizens of the town were connected with it. The Mayor's remarks were well received by the delegates who cheered him freely as he took his seat. Wednesday night's session was set as time for election. Wednesday morning the reports of the grand officers were continued. Each showed that the order was progressing. As the reports were read the hearty approval given them was evidence sufficient that few if any changes would be made. Lebanon, Tenn., August 16.—(Special.)—At a meeting of the delegated assembly of colored people of the state last night at Benevolent Hall, Grand Secretary R. H. Brown made his report, in which he stated the membership had increased over 500 since last year and the value of the property of the organization was about $4,600. Wednesday night's session brought out a full representation of delegates. The election was to be held which is always a lively time. President Copeland rapped for order promptly at eight o'clock. Devotions were conducted by the Grand Chaplain. The president then announced that the election of officers was the business set for that hour.

Donaghey LARGE NUMBER OF DELEGATES PRESENT—NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION AND OTHER AFFILIATED BODIES MEETING WITH THE LEAGUE—J. E. BUSH PRESIDES AT THE OPENING SESSION—DR. MORRIS WELCOMES FOR RELIGIOUS BODIES—PRESIDENT WASHINGTON'S ADDRESS—BUSINESS UNLIKE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS—NO SECRETS—GENERAL REVIEW OF THE RACE'S PROGRESS FOR FISCAL YEAR—ADDRESS WELL RECEIVED. Little Rock, Ark., August 16. The twelfth annual session of the National Negro Business League opened here this morning in the Kempner Theater. Hon. J. E. Bush, one of the leading Negro business men in this city presided at the opening session. After preliminary remarks Mr. Bush introduced Governor Donaghey, who was to deliver the address of welcome on behalf of the state. The Governor was received amid deafening applause. He said he was glad of the opportunity to welcome the Negro business men of the country to Arkansas. That such a gathering could not but bring good results to any people. "While you are said to be an imitative race, you never commit suicide or suffer from nervous troubles. Another distinguished feature of your race is your loyalty. Your record of faithfulness to your trust during the civil war is an imperishable asset to your race. Your victors returned to us our property and our families were protected from acts of dishonor. This is a monument more enduring than brass or marble." Dr. E. C. Morris, president of the National Baptist Convention, welcomed the delegates on behalf of the religious organizations of the state. When he arose to speak his reception was equal to that given the governor. Dr. Morris, in his characteristic manner, told what the churches had done and are doing for the Negroes, of Arkansas, and urged the business men not to forget the church in their desires to succeed in business. He welcomed the delegates to all the churches and to the hospitality of the religious people. In the afternoon Dr. Booker T. Washington delivered his annual address to perhaps the largest number of Negro business men ever assembled in this country. He said: "This session marks the twelfth year of the existence of the National Negro Business League. While it is among the youngest of our national organizations, I think we have just cause to feel proud of its growth, success and influence. Starting in a simple way, it has now grown to the point where it brings together at these annual meetings the strongest and best men and women of our race. In connection with the national organization, there are now in existence about 600 local leagues scattered throughout the United States. "The peculiar value of this league, however, is not in the size of the national organization nor in the number of local leagues, but in the work and influence of the league in turning the attention of members of our race to the rich opportunity that is right about them in their own communities for industrial and business growth. The value of the league consists mainly in the new spirit that it has put into the race—a spirit that turns the impossible to the possible, from that which is artificial and unstable to that which is natural and enduring. The National Negro Business League, too, is unlike many other organizations in the fact that it is not a secrete organization; it has no grips and passwords, and offers no sick and death benefits. Nor is this in any sense a political organization. Let me and, too, that the Business League is not in opposition to any other organiza- tion that is meant to help our race, but stands ready to help and co-operate with all other worthy organizations. "Taking the Southern States as a whole, I find that colored farmers last produced four and a half million bales of cotton valued at about $319,000,000. Colored farmers in the South produced last year 150,000,000 bushels of corn valued at about $95,000,000. How many of these millions of dollars to-day remain in our hands, and how much has parted from us? "The colored farmers of the South produced last year four and a half million bushels of oats valued at over two millions of dollars. They produced last year 850,000 bushels of wheat valued at nearly four million dollars, and 98,000,000 pounds of tobacco valued at about nine million dollars. "It is estimated that the total value of the farm products of colored farmers of the South last year amounted to five hundred million dollars. In addition to what was produced by the farmers, I am safe in saying that those engaged in other gainful occupations such as professional service, domestic and personal service, and trade manufacturing and mechanical pursuits earned last year at two hundred million dollars, making the total earnings of our race in the South alone something over seven hundred million dollars. "I repeat again and again that it is the duty of the Negro minister the Negro teacher, the Negro business man, of the leaders of our race everywhere to see to it that a larger proportion of the tremendous amount earned by our race is invested in lands, houses, banks, schools, industrial institutions, colleges, churches, so invested that it will remain for all time in the possession of this generation and succeeding generations. If ten per cent, only of our annual earnings were set aside for such investment as I have suggested, the the race would have every year seventy millions of dollars which would go into itspermanent enrichment and enlightenment. "Attention before it is too late to our economic and industrial growth will enable the ten million members of our race in the United States to escape many of the pitfalls into which our race has fallen in Liberia, Haiti and elsewhere. "Just in proposition as our race gives heed to the development of its economic and industrial opportunities will every school, college, university and church be strengthened. Just in proportion as we seize hold of and use the tremendous economic and material opportunities that are at our door will every journalist, teacher, minister, lawyer and doctor share in the benefit and be strengthened. "In all the respects to which I have referred and many others, a rich and bountiful harvest awaits us as a race. and in proportion as we enter it we shall find friends and supporters among white people and black people. Let us, then, as a race everywhere turn our faces away from the setting sun of gloom and despair toward the rising sun of hope and determination." NATIONAL PRESS ASSOCIATION HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING — SESSION BEGINS STORMY BUT ENDS IN A CALM. Little Rock, Ark., August 15, 1911. The National Negro Press Association held its annual meeting at the First Presbyterian Church, in this city, beginning Tuesday morning. There was a most splendid representation; the largest journal of the race, with their editors and managers were there to show to the journalistic world not only idea of business, but what the Negro stands for in the press and reading sphere. After two days of laborious work, all agreed to rub off the slate and start a new program for the association. This will be done by some of the new officers who were elected, and who are as follows: M. W. Lewey, of the Florida Sentinel, Pensacola, President, Florida; W. E. King, of the Dallas Express, Dallas, Texas; Corresponding Secretary, Henry A. Boyd, of the Nashville Globe, recording Secretary, Nashville, Tenn.; L. G. Jordan, of the Foreign Mtsston Herald, Treasurer, Louisville, Ky.; Fred R. Moore, of the New York Age, New York City, N. Y., chairman executive committee. The remaining officers will be given in the next issue. A vigorous campaign will outlined by the officers with the aim of a mid-winter meeting to be held at some central point. There will also be a campaign started to increase the membership of the association. No. 32 INTERCHURCH COLLEGE UP GENERAL SECRETARY MAKES STATEMENT Disgruntled Whites Seem Satisfied MR. MCCULLOCH'S EXPLANATION DOES NOT EXPLAIN—POINT OUT HOWEVER THE IN-TENDED SCOPE OF THE WORK—GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR NASHVILLE—FIRST CITY TO ATTEMPT SUCH A THING—SETTING EXAMPLE FOR THE COUNTRY—NEGRO DEPARTMENT VERY SMALL FEATURE—MIS-UNDERSTANDING WOULD BE VERY UNFORTUNATE AT THIS TIME. The disgruntled white people who raised such a howl about the location of the Negro department of the Interchurch College in their community seem to have received assurance from the general secretary that the institution would not be established on the proposed site. The Negroes are very much disturbed over the matter. They express themselves as appreciative of any aid they can get but they do not believe much good can be accomplished with such an institution unless the very best feeling exists unless all parties concerned. Dr. McCullough's letter reads as follows: "August 16, 1911. Nashville Industrial Bureau, Stahlman Building, City—Gentlemen: I have carefully read your courteous letter of the fifteenth, and also the accompanying resolutions regarding the location of the Negro department of the American Interchurch College. It is gratifying to me to observe the evident interest you have in this undertaking for the uplift of the colored race, and I appreciate especially the financial aid that has been given to this movement by some of your members, consequently I regret very much that you should be disturbed by conclusions which are not based on authentic information regarding the real intentions of the Board of Directors of the Interchurch College. No one has been to the office of the college, which is now in the Stahyman Building, to even try to get the facts. Many members of the College Board are among your most distinguished and loyal citizens. It is impossible for anyone who knows them to believe that they would for a moment undertake to do anything which in their judgment is not for the best interests of our good city. "Allow me to call your attention to a fact which is of infinitely greater importance to Nashville than any question of location. The American Interchurch College for Religious and Social Workers is attracting national attention. The colored department is a very small part of this movement. The outlook for the success of the whole plan is very encouraging. I am getting letters from all over America congratulating Nashville on being the first city to undertake the establishment of an Interchurch College of this character. It seems that we have the opportunity of actually leading the nation in building this pioneer institution with all its departments. What could be more unfortunate just now than for us to have a misunderstanding among ourselves? Will you not, therefore, urge all inquirers to come to my office and give me the opportunity and pleasure of stating our position? I am sure no one will leave the office with the slightest fear. I feel confident, too, that the college may count on your earnest co-operation in this educational enterprise which should be the pride of every citizen; for it will make the whole world debtor to our city and give Nashville a name that is above every name for social and religious service. Thanking you for your kindness in the matter, I am fraternally yours, NOMINATED BY A NASHVILLE WHITE MAN. At the recent international gathering of the Christian Endeavor Society in Atlantic City Booker T. Washington was unanimously elected to the position of a Trustee at large.

Jones preached quite an interesting sermon Sunday morning and Sunday night. His subject Sunday morning, "Give Something to This World," was a very appropriate one. The theme was, "Such as I Have Given Thee." The sermon was made very practical by the speaker, and the congregation which was very large, listened attentively. During the explanation of his sermon Sunday night one soul was made happy for Christ in the person of Miss Essie Atkins Evins, who is an orphan girl. Rev. H. L. P.

Uncle Nathan Brakens, one of the best known and most highly respected citizens of Grundy county and the only colored resident of Beersheba Springs, Tenn. departed from this life Tuesday, July 17, 1911, at a ripe old age of between 102 and 112 years. Uncle Nathan came to the mountain in the ante bellum days, when Beersheba Springs was in its infancy, as a slave of Mr. John Armfield. His early life was spent in the south, having been sold to different slave holders. Finally he was bought by Mr. Armfield, the founder of Beersheba Springs, who was very fond of him and whose last request was that Uncle Nathan should be buried near him. Uncle Nathan was the father of twelve children, of which number five survive him. Hp was a devoted husband and a loving father; he possessed one of those sterling characters of patience and endurance. Although he was passed a century in years, his health was splendid until the last year of his life; he was able to attend his own crop every year, except this one. He was always jolly and looked on the bright side of life. Uncle Nathan will be missed by all who knew him. In the last months of his life, he prayed and sang praises to God constantly and died with a prayer on his lips. Although he was not a Christian, we believe that the Holy Father heard his feeble prayers and saved him in his dying hour. His funeral was well attended by both black and white. LITERARY CLUB OF ST.

Fort has returned to the city after having spent the better part of the week attending the Grand Lodge at Chattanooga, Tenn. He was unanimously re-elected as the head of the Odd Fellows of the state of Tennessee, a position that he is deservedly filling with credit. Quite a number of Nashville people were present, and attended this Grand Lodge session. THE TRAINING OF MIDWIVES Not many weeks ago Dr. John Winters Brannan, president of the board of directors of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, announced to those interested that within a few months a school for the training of midwives, the first in this country, would be established in connection with Bellevue Hospital. The significance of this is considerable, for there is obviously the closest possible conNECTION between the midwife question and that of the prevention of blindness in babies. As the Survey has put it, about one-half the children born in large cities are delivered by midwives and about one-third the cases of preventable blindness are due to ophthalmia neonatorum. To recognize the dangerous condition of aaby's eyes, to apply the remedy without exceeding the proper quantity, and to report the whole matter to the Board of Health, is plainly too great a responsibility for an untrained and illiterate woman to discharge; particularly as competent investigation within the past few years has shown that many midwives in New York as well as in other large cities are not prepared for their work, are not conscientious, and are not even clean. The institution has been apparent for some time without provoking anything more useful than debate. At last the workers for the prevention of blindness began to urge that since the institution of the midwife was not in itself a curse, inasmuch as in foreign cities, with careful training and supervision; it worked out well; and since the families of the poor would be obliged to employ these women in any case, because of the lesser cost of their services.-the only course was to train them and raise their standard. And Dr. Brannan's plan is, as he himself concedes a direct result of the committee's persuasive advocacy. The idea is not to discourage applicants at first by presenting too long and elaborate a course of instruction, three months being suggested as the minimum and six months as the maximum. Only a nominal fee will be required. Women speaking any language will be admitted and will be taught in their own language. After completing the course, the graduates will be supervised at intervals, to see that they keep rigidly up to the standard that has been set them. This scheme in itself will involve an important social reformation, but the workers for the prevention of blindness insist that the matter should not stop here. They are therefore working actively to bring about legislation which shall gradually limit the practice of midwifery to regularly schooled and graduated women."From "Doing Away with Blindness," by Olivia Howard Dunbar, in the American Review of Reviews for August.

It is the plan of the Nash ville delegation to leave Nashville for Pittsburg at 8:35 Monday night, Sep- tember 11, arriving in Pittsburg at 5:40 Tuesday evening, September 12. It is understood that Rev. C. H. Clark has put in an order for the sleeper, and a committer was appointed by the Ministers’ Conference, two weeks ago, to select the road over which this sleeper would travel. PUBLISHING BOARD HOLDS MEETING. Because of the Stone River Asso- ciation and Sunday-School Conven- tion meeting at Smyrna, Tenn. on Tuesday of thi: week, Chairnian Clark of the Prblishing Board was compelled to csll a meeting of his Board on Monesy as nearly all of the members of the local boards were compelled to be out of the city Tues- day to attend this Association and Convention. The Publishing Board held its sessions at the Publishing House. Dr. Clark said that this was the meeting at which the report of the Board of the National Baptist Convention was avthorized made. He declared that the Secretary, Dr. Boyd, will be able when his report is com- piled, to show a gain of business over the previous years, notwith- standing the obstacles and barriers that the Board was compelled to overcome. Another meeting, said Dr. lark, is to be held just before going to the Convention, as it will be the close of the fiscal year. Other mem- bers of the Board Rev. G. B. Taylor, T. J. Townsend, John Slaughter ex- pressed themselves as being highly pleased with the splendid showing made hy the secretary's quarterly re- port, which points to a big annual re- port. NASHVILLE DELEGATES ATTEND BUSINESS LEAGUE. On Monday night at 11:30 o'clock, a special Pullman coach of Nashville delegates, joined by Chattanooga friends, left the city en route for Lit- tle Rock, Ark., going direct to Mem- phis, by way of McKenzie, Tenn., The Business League this year could hardly be more enthusiastically boost- ed than it was by the Nashville peo- ple. It was regretable however, that the two Local Leagues were not well represented. It was said that the President and Secretaries of both Leagues, would vie with each other to see who ‘would carry the largest delegation, but it is not necessary to record those who went, especially in a sectional way. It is equivalent to say, that Nashville had its quota of representatives. The Hon. J. C. Na- pier, who represents Nashville at all times, was loud in his praise of the class of delegates, and the kind of representatives that came to the League from his home town. He ex- pects to be in Nashville today and tomorrow. But the return of the dele- gates will tell the story as to whether Nashville played her part well, The Hon. Mr. Ben Carr, an enthusiastic Negro Business League admirer, could not attend the League, and was missed, wanted and needed. Let us hope that in 1912, and 1913, and in all subsequent years, Nashville will not go without a large delegation and an enthusiastic representation at every session of the Business League. ee oe ee | See nee Re owe The Stone River Association, which held its annual session at Smyrna, Tenn., was the most largely attended meeting in the history of that organiz- ation, Several meetings were held during the week, some of the most interesting being, the Women’s Auxil- jary to the Stone River Association, and the Stone River Sunday-School Convention. The Nashville delega- tion constituted about two coaches. ‘They went up every day in the week, beginning on Tuesday morning. which was by far the largest delega- tion that left the city. A special coach of about fifty enthusiastic Sun- day-school workers went to this meet- ing. Some of the prominent speak- ers who apeared on the program were Drs. ©. H. Clark, of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church; W. S. Ellington, of the First Baptist Church; R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday-School de- partment of the National Baptist Publishing Board; J. D. Crenshaw, Editor of the National Baptist Union- Review; G. B. Taylor; T. J. Town- send, and a host of others. The most encouraging features of the Associa- tion were the elegant way, and the splendid homes in which these peo- ple, It was regrettable, however, that wood and no one doubts that fact. Rev.

An instruct: ive program was carried out, and Mass-Meeting, to be held un the fourth Sunday in this month, were about consummated. Rev. T. J. Lewis, Chairman of the Sunday-School ‘Union, has asked that a chorus of one hundred voices selected from among all of the Baptist churches and Sunday-schools of the city, re- hearse and be prepared to furnish good singing for the occasion, the chorus was to be under the direction of the Rev. Dr, Pius, but his having to go to Pittsburg, will interfere con- siderably with this arrangement, But Nashville has such an abundance of talent that it will not be a hardship to get some one to take the place of Dr. Pius, who upon his return from the Pittsburg meeting, will no doubt take charge of the chorus. It was further intimated at this Suinday- school meeting that a great chorus of two or three hundred voices would be maintained permanently in Nash- ville for the benefit of such Sunday- school and religious meetings as the Sunday-School Union promises to hold. The program on Sunday even- ing was led by experienced Sunday- school workers, The plan of election for the next Sunday was more thoroughly outlined than it has been heretofore. The collection, while not large, showed the usual amount of in- terest. BAPTIST COMMISSION MEETS HERE. Tuesday of last week there was held in this city what the Baptists call a Commission Meeting. It is said that ‘this commission was authorized by the National Baptist Convention at its New Orleans session. The size of the commission could not be learn- ed, but some of the well informed Baptists said that it was between seven and nine persons. As_ the minutes of the last session of the National Baptist Convention, are not yet printed, no authentic statement was obtainable. A Globe reporter tried to interview President Morris, but failed. There were here Revs. A. D. Williams, Atlanta, Ga., E. C. Morris, Helena. Ark., and G. W. Sim- mons, Helena, Ark. It was learned that Rev. M. W. Gilbert, President of Selma University, Selma, Alabama, who happened to reach the city on the same day, was added to the num- ber, and that this commission held a meeting at the Baptist Publishing House, Tuesday afternoon, A careful inquiry was made and a persistent sige aces eae SEES WE BUY FOR CASH AND SELL FOR CASH—WHY SHOULD'NT WE SAVE YOU MONEY?

It was fur- ther learned that some of the person- nel of the commission that should have been present were Rev. L. L. Campbell, Austin, Texas, C. L. Fisher, Birmingham, Ala, Wm. Stewart, Louisville, Ky., and Rey. Dr. Johnson, Atlanta, Ga. Not even Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, who is editor of the official organ of the National Baptist Con- vention, could be induced to discuss the proceeding of this Commission, which, however, may not be shrouded in mystery, but the Baptist people simply take the attitude that their business is their business. The indi- cations are that a successful session on the commission was held. Chairman Clark of the Publishing Board was seen by a reporter, in his effort to get a news item of the meet- ing. He was on his way io the Stone River Association, and when asked about what was going on and if he knew anything about the commission, said that he was compelled to be out of the city but that the meeting if held would be a successful one, WILL VISIT KENTUCKY, Having accepted an invitation to be present at the General Association of the state of Kentucky, Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, spent the better part of the week in the Blue Grass State, his native clime. Dr. Clark could not be expected to stay away very long, as the church is about to put on the finishing touches, and whatever is to be done at Mt. Olive, he usually makes it convenient to be present. He was royally entertained in his native state, and was one of the prin- cipal speakers at the Association, WEDDING DAY PUBLICATIONS.

FRIDAY. AUGUST 18, 1911. Registration. The registration booths were thrown open last Monday morning and will be kept open until Thursday of next week. There are only five more days left. Those who do not register in that time will be left out. The Negro voters are not qualifying as rapidly as they should. If all wait until the last day somebody will be shut out; so it will be wise to go now and attend to this all-important matter. Every man should register. We have made this statement time and again and we wish we could repeat it until every man of voting age would be convinced of his duty in this respect. One evening in this week a young man was heard to remark, on being approached on this subject, that he took no part in such things. There are scores of young Negro men who feel that same way. They are not to be censured for their opinion, but it is the duty of those men who realize the mistake they are making to go to them in a brotherly way and endeavor to persuade them to change their opinion. Any man who is interested in the welfare of his home can be convinced that he should exercise those rights that are guaran teed to every citizen if he would protect that home. Scores of these young men who feel that voting does not concern them one way or the other are heads of families, and if properly approached can be shown that they too owe their family that same protection that other men owe theirs. We repeat again, every intelligent man should register, and the he should also pay his own poll tax and thereby be an independent voter. The man who registers and allows some one else to pay his poll tax is not a fit subject to exercise the franchise and cannot be depended on to do the things that go to the uplift of all the people. In reality, he is not a citizen, for no citizen will be bought as chattel. We call attention to this matter finally, elieving as we do it is very necessary that the Negroes prepare themselves to vote in the coming elections. A Like Condition. The Dallas Express, discussing in a current issue the prohibition election recently held in the Lone Star State, says the following: The colored preachers who turned their pulpits into politi- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 11911. cal hustings during the recent prohibition campaign received small thanks from Sir Thomas Ball, the reigning prince in the realm of cold water. As soon as all doubt as to the success or failure of prohibition was settled, the chieftain immediately proceeded to lay a large share of the blame at the door of the "man and brother," declaring that 80 per cent. of the Negroes voted the anti ticket, and of this number there were several school teachers and preachers. The Express evidently has been reading Tennessee papers and is well versed on conditions in this state; if such be true the fact is known that the Negroes in Tennessee can say amen to what the Express has said. The prohibition people do not convince the world that they are in reality sincere, for they are too often guilty of the charge as stated above. Man Can Appoint Only. We want to see Editor D. A. Hart of the clean-cut and progressive Nashville Globe at Little Rock. We know he has some good ideas to present to the Press Association.—Florida Sentinel. We fully intended to be present at the meeting of the National Negro Press Association in Little Rock, but when the session convened, we found ourselves at home, owing to circumstances over which we had no control. Consequently, if we had an idea that would have been worth anything to the members of the Association we will have to give it to them otherwise than in the annual meeting. We appreciate very much the high compliment paid us by the president of the Association, but we do not feel that we could have advanced any special idea that would have set the woods on fire, had we been at the Little Rock meeting. We were anxious to be present because we believe we would have been benefited by coming in personal contact with the Negro newspaper men of the country. We cannot see that our absence will materially lessen the good that will be accomplished. We believe that this meeting will take some steps towards effecting the organization that was begun in Louisville. We have expressed our views from time to time regarding this matter. There is a great field for the Negro press. We do not mean by this there is a mint of money to be made, but that there is a great service to be rendered and this service can only be rendered successfully through a permanent organization. Such an organization must be conducted in a businesslike way. We believe matters will take shape in this direction at the Little Rock meeting, and we shall expect great things from their operation. Too Loose Rein. Several incidents have happened recently that should cause parents of this city to begin to put a check on their children and to regulate their habits. Young people are given to a desire for pleasure. It is natural for them, in fact, the time never comes in life that any one loses their desire for pleasure. When we use this term we do so in the broader sense of the word. Of course, what grown people call pleasure young people do not, and what young men and young ladies get pleasure out of, children would not turn on their heels to notice. Nature has so constructed mankind that he is satisfied with one thing in childhood, with another in youthhood, and still another in manhood. The Bible writer, Paul of Tarsus, said when he was a child he thought as a child and spoke as a child, but when he became a man he put away childish things. This is as true of men to-day as it was in Paul's time. But it is the duty of parents to continuously shape the minds of their children toward the development of a strong character. To do this there are some things the child would like to indulge in that their parents must object to, and not only while they are children, but after they are grown men and women; for so long as they are under the roof of mother and father's house they are their guardians. Recently it has been a common thing to hear of hay-ride parties, and invariably it takes the young people THE ATLANTA MUSICAL until nine and ten o'clock to get the hay in the wagon and the horse hitched up, then they must joy ride until twelve, one, two, three and four o'clock. The parents suffer it to be so, and they are responsible. A reasonable hour should be set for these young people to return to the point where the party started from, and then from that point make their way home before the midnight hour arrives. Another practice that is being allowed to be carried too far by the young people is the habit of dancing all night. We do not condemn dancing, neither can we be made to see that it benefits anybody; but we do condemn the practice of dancing all night long. It is a foolish thing, to say the least, and it corrupts good morals without a doubt. It destorys the health and in every way unfits those people who indulge in it for manhood and womanhood. If the parents allow these practices to continue they may expect to reap what they sowing. The Fellowship Herald, of Chicago, came to our desk this week. This is a new star in the journalistic horizon and is edited by that talented daughter of Tennessee, Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett. The Demonstrator, of Mound Bayou, Miss., is to be congratulated on her new dress. Editor Hood belongs to the progressive class. Negro men of Nashville register and get ready to rally to Mayor Howse. The Colored Musical Association of Atlanta held its second Festival, August 8th and 9th. Tuesday evening, August 8th, Gaul's "Holy City" was rendered. An audience of about two thousand was present. Considering the nature or the composition, from every standpoint the entertainment was a credit. The "Holy City" is not very popular nor overly timeful, in fact, it is to a considerable degree, uninteresting to the large majority of the people, such as would naturally attend the festival. But on the whole it was rendered in such a manner as to reflect much credit to the association. The soloists, Mrs. Anita Patti Brown, soprano, Miss Evans, contralto, Frank B. Badger, tenor, and W. Granville Hurley, bass, did good work. The finest piece of individual work was the singing of "These are They" by Mrs. Brown, which completely captivated the audience. Miss Evans, who on the shortest kind of notice, took the contralto part instead of Miss Lula Vere Childers, who was disposed, deserves great thanks for she did it finely and highly pleased the audience with her splendid voice. Miss Childers, head of Musical Department of Howard University, directed the oratorio with precision, leading the chorus to deserved honor. Misses Irene T. Bowen, Nellie E. Graves and Mr. N. W. Ryder, pianists, performed artistically Wednesday 2:30 p. m. The Fisk Quartet, composed of Messrs. J. W. Work, F. J. Work A. G. Price and N. W. Ryder, rendered a program consisting of classical, semi-classical and folk song selections. Mr. J. W. Work sang "A May Morning" by Deeza. Mr. Ryder sang "Rolling in Foaming Billows" from Haydn's Creation. "Couldn' Hear Nobody Pray," "Swing Low Sweet Charlot" were among the folk songs sung. In the evening at 8 o'clock all the soloists and the chorus gave the program. Mr. Chas. J. Mahoney, tenor, of Philadelphia, sang "Heavenly Aids" by Verdi, and "My Hero" from Chocolate soldier. Mrs Brown, soprano, of Chicago, sang the "Shadow Song" by Meyerbeer. "Swanee River," "Coming Through the Rye" and "Three Little Chestnuts" by Page. Mr. W. G. Hurley, bass, of Philadelphia, sang Jude's "Deep in the Mine," Flegiar's "Horn" Vulcan's song by Gounod. Miss Katherine Skene Mitchell, soprano, of Cleveland, O., sang "Love's Rapture" by Williams, and "Aria" from La Troviata. The Fisk Quartet sang "Steal Away, "All Over this World," "Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray," "Swing Low," and "Last Night." "Lift Thine Eyes" was sung by Mesdames Mitchell, Brown and DEATH OF MRS. MARY WADE. DEATH OF MRS. MARY WADE In remembrance of our dear deceased sister, Mrs. Mary Wade, who departed this life August 3, 1911, at the Masonic Home, we write the following.

Main 901—Today. Nashville Ry. & Light Co. TEACHERS ELECTED FOR COL- ORED CITY SCHOOLS. Eight substitutes, ten for the probation list were elected Tuesday night by the city board of education. Of the probation teachers re-elected were eighteen. This was the occasion of the annual election of teachers. These and all other teachers whose names are on the permanent list will report for duty Monday, September 4, All members of the education board were Miss Childers. Sextette from Lucia was sung by Mrs. Brown, Miss Childers, Messrs. Olden, Badger, Smith and Hurley. The chorus sang "By the Water of Babylon," by Coleridge-Taylor, and "Sanctus" by Gounod, Mr. Olden taking the solo. The comments of the Atlanta papers were very interesting and gratifying. "Really Wonderful Music Heard at Negro Festival," was the heading the "Georgian" used. It stated, "There were several soloists on the program whose voices are of unusual quality and who betrayed training apparently as complete and certainly as productive of results as many of the leading opera singers can boast. The concerts were indications of what education and technical preparation can produce from the naturally excellent vocal organs of the Negro." Of the Fisk Quartet it stated that it was easily the most popular feature of the Festvial, and repeated calls forced them to sing again and again. The leading tenor, J. W. Work, is really remarkable in his range and in the sweetness and flexibility of his voice, and the others of the quartet are thorough masters of harmonious accompaniment. Work's solo part in a simple vocal setting of Schumann's Traumerei and the soft humming accompaniment of his fellows, was really wonderful in its sweetness, An evening with the Fisk singers would be a welcome surprise to all who love pure melody and sweetness in music. Of Mrs. Brown it stated, "The remarkable feature of the evening concert was the singing of Mrs. Anita Patti Brown, of Chicago. Her first number was Meyerbeer's "Shadow Song" brimming over with trills and cadenzas and giving her excellent opportunity of coloratura singing. She proved her versatility too, by singing "Swanee River" and 'Coming Through the Rye," and showed her remarkable distinctness of enunciation in Page's "Three Little Chestnuts," etc. The applause of her singing was as vociferous in the balcony set apart for white persons as from the body of the auditorium and was well deserved. The entire program was surprisingly excellent to those unfamiliar with the musical development of the Negro. Taken as a whole the Rev. H. H. Proctor*, of the Colored Congregational Church, and his associates, may well be proud of the success of this second festival. It was a revelation of the work which they are doing through the medium of the Institutional Church among the more ambitious and energetic people of their race. all. At the beginning of the organization she was Financial Secretary for a number of years. We realize that the Lord doeth all things well.

F. of Tennessee, has just returned from Chattanooga, where he was re-elected to begin another term in the high office which he holds. Prof. Turner will have served the Order in this position fifteen years should he live out this present term. Prof. Turner was directly opposed by Prof. J. A. Henry, of Chattanooga, who is Grand Master of Masons, besides the influence of several other prominent Odd Fellows, whose sympathies were with Prof. Henry. The Grand Secretary, Brother Turner, easily defeated Prof. Henry, with a plenty of votes to spare so powerful was the Turner influence. He did not only defeat Henry but every one that openly opposed the distinguished son of Giles. The population seemed to carry everything that got in its way. The most prominent of those that were caught in the revolution were Prof. Willie Sunshine Thompson, the Endowment Secretary, who would not have had an appointment had not the Turnerites believed he was lined up with the Henry forces. Every opponent of the distinguished Giles connection settled his own defeat when he tried to line up to defeat the Grand Secretary, who was more influential than his combined opposition. So powerful was the Turner influence among the brethren and together with their desire for right and position, they refused to adopt the auditing committee's report, which showed prejudice and biasness toward the Grand Secretary. The committee's report was rejected by a standing vote of 100 to 7. Even many friends of Prof. Henry refused to sanction that bias report. Mr. W. M. Burch and Sir N. N. Reynolds were prominent in the Grand Lodge at Chattanooga last week. N. N. Reynolds was the campaign manager for the Turner forces and he is all in smiles over his recent victory.

"Everything comes to them that wait, provided they hustle while they wait," for true formality and expressiveness of mental constituency is rapidly culminating in one club. For the love of real literary genius and the art of the combustion of the same, for the study of moral constituents, our thoughts are chastened with the momentum of moral intelligence. It is well to note here the eloquent way in which the club's critics and statistician were inaugurated by the President, and the inaugural address of the same. Very rare form was used by the President in conferring upon the officers their duty, yet more than that was the response from Messrs. Winston and Scruggs, the critic and statistician, respectively. The former in "Benefits vs. Hinderances," the latter, "How Can I Help the Club." The club is preparing a memorial of their late member, Mr. E. L. Berry, at an early date. 7 One-Cent Savings Bank Incorporated Under the Laws of Tennessee CAPITAL STOCK, $25,000.00. Does a regular banking business. Interest paid on all time deposits.

Phone Main 2942 SPORT. REFEREE SAVED O'BRIEN FROM BEING KNOCKED OUT. Sam Langford Too Clever for the Philadelphia. New York, Aug. 15.—Sam Langford, of Boston, fought "Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien to a standstill in four and one-half rounds to-night at the Twentieth Century Club. Referee Chas. White prevented a knockout when he stopped the bout in the middle of the fifth round. O'Brien practically was out from the effect of a hard left hook to the jaw and had to be helped to his corner. It was the old story of a clever, game boxer pitted against a hard-hitting fighter and from the start the Boston heavyweight had O'Brien's measure taken. Lanford's blows were on the sledgehammer order, while none of O'Brien's swings and hooks had sufficient strength to bother Langford. The fight was fast and O'Brien showed clever footwork, as well as scientific boxing. There was no question as to O'Brien's gameness, as he took a lot of punishment. --- Nashville base ball fans are rooting with all their might and main that the home team may land away up in the first division.

JACK JOHNSON SIGNS UP FOR $125,000 WORTH OF FIGHTS. Probably McIntosh is the only man alive who knows how much trouble he had in landing Johnson. He has been camping on the trail of the black ever since the latter landed in England. He has been with him at all hours of the day and most of the night. Johnson is naturally a suspicious man and McIntosh found it difficult to win his confidence. As matters stand at present the Australian is practically the black man's manager. He superintended the making of Johnson's agreement with the English syndicate that is bound to drop a pot of money on the coming Johnson-Wells fight. The champion actually received $10,000 down, will receive the same amount in a few weeks, and the remaining installment of his $30,000 before he enters the ring. If for any reason the syndicate is unable to go on with the fight Johnson keeps the money he has received. As Wells is to receive $10,000 for his end and the expenses will eat up at least the same amount, it is difficult to imagine the backers going through with it. The best opinion in this country is that the fight would not draw $1,5,000. Johnson has $125,000 in Sight. Under contracts already signed Johnson is assured of $125,000 from its ring engagements alone during the next year. With moving picture rights and theatrical engagements he should have no great difficulty in doubling that. Jack says he doesn't want to box in the United States yet awhile. Guess not, when he can do as well as that elsewhere. Some of the English papers, banking on Johnson's supposedly amiable disposition, are saying that the black will go easy with Bombadier Wells in their coming match. It wouldn't be wise for any one to bet much money on that. Johnson will put the Englishman away just as quickly as he possibly can. He won't play with him a minute and if Wells goes five rounds it will be because Johnson is unable to "catch him bending." VISITING CHATTANOOGA Mr. and Mrs. Pointer and two little sons, of Eighth street, East Nashville, spent five days last week in Chattanooga with Mrs. Foster. A jolly party spent one day on Lookout Mountain and visiting Chickamauga park. In this party were Mr. and Mrs Pointer, Masters Nathaniel and Garden Pointer, Miss Lula Shelby, Nashville.

BIG TRANSFER OF REALTY NEAR FISK UNIVERSITY Among the largest realty transfers noted in Davidson county in the last several months is that of property transferred to the Bransford Realty Company, consisting of two solid blocks fronting on Jefferson, Scovel and Heiman streets, between Sixteenth and Seventeen avenues, North. It is understood that this property is to be subdivided and placed on the market at once. In addition to the vacant property the transfer consisted of 11 houses, and it is understood that this company is planning to erect several new houses on Scovel and Heiman streets, for sale. Information was obtained from the office of the company this morning that four of the eleven houses were sold contingently before the property was transferred to the Company. This shows the demand for high-class Fisk University property. This company is to be congratulated for giving so many colored people opportunities to own homes in this favored section. NEGROES.
