NASHVILLE GLOBE. GOV. GEO. W. DONAGHEY USE PLAIN WORDS IN WELCOME ADDRESS. To Business League Pres. Re-elected ARKANSAS CHIEF EXECUTIVE GIVES BLACK MAN CREDIT— POINTS TO HIS PRESENT PROGRESS AND PAST RECORD—HIS HAPPY DISPOSITION A GREAT ASSET—STRONG RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY LEAGUE—ASKS PRESIDENT TO AGAIN PETITION CONGRESS FOR FREEDMEN BANK DEPOSITORS—NEXT MEETING WILL BE HELD IN CHICAGO. On the opening day of the recent session of the National Negro Business League at Little Rock, Ark., Governor Donaghey delivered an address brim full of truth and common sense. In delivering the welcome address on behalf of the state, he said: "On behalf of the State I am pleased to welcome the representatives of a remarkable race—remarkable for more things than color or plantation melodies. Such an occasion as this would have been thought thirty years ago an impossibility. What a marked contrast! Fifty years ago your distinguished chairman was a slave; to-day he is the foremost representative of a free people who are making rapid strides in civilization. He is a cultured man, presiding with dignity over a/commercial congress composed of sons of former slaves. Indeed this occasion augurs a brighter day, not only for your race, but for our common country, for the interests of the white race and of the black race are so blended and interwoven that what affects one here in our Southland, affects the other. "This congress stands for progress, for the material betterment of your race. What are some of the essential things—the basic elements upon which the permanent progress of the colored man rests? First, let us note a few prominent race traits and perhaps they may suggest lessons for our instruction. "What people in all the world have shown themselves possessed of unfailling good humor in such a high degree as has the colored man? My own people, the Irish, have that quality, but doubtless in a less degree. Indeed, it is a great quality and an invaluable asset of your race. It has carried you smiling through so many hardships; it has lightened your burdens; it has enabled you to laugh in the midst of tribulations; it has wreathed your face with smiles instead of furrowing it with cares. It keeps the irrepressible smile about you and preserves a happy, cheerful disposition. It saves you from worry and anxiety. "While you are said to be an imitative race, you never suicide or suffer from nervous troubles. I believe it was your chairman who tells us or the young Negro in Harvard University who specialized on nervous diseases with a view of practicing medicine in the Mississippi bottoms. He, of course, would never have had a patient. "Another distinguishing characteristic of your people is loyalty. Your record of faithfulness to your trust during the Civil War is an imperishable monument to your race. During those times that tried men's souls, few colored men betrayed their trust. Upon our return as soldiers from that war your fathers returned to us our property and our families protected from any act of dishonor—a monument more enduring than brass or marble. "Moreover, your people are blessed by nature with a good, active body, capacitated for physical endurance. Of course, another important element in the situation is that your race is in its infancy, that it has been under the influence of a high civilization for only a short time. "What lessons do these facts suggest? In the first place, they suggest that you have something to be proud of. Your unfailing good humor is a NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1911. great racial asset; perhaps no race can boast of so high a spirit of loyalty and devotion as can yours. Then you should be proud of your strong bodies. For sustained progress, people must have a good physical basis as well as moral qualities. A rational pride is an essential element in the success of any people. If you do not believe in yourself, no one else will have faith in you. Respect yourself, and sooner or later the world will respect you. Do not run around begging social recognition or social equality. Be contented with the progress you are making. "Another lesson drawn from the characteristics of your race is that you should train the body for useful pursuits. Your body is active and strong and is capable of skill in all lines of manual labor. The fields of agriculture, of the mechanic arts and of domestic etonomy offer rich reward for skilled hands; they also offer far more openings for your race than the learned professions. Others will tell you how important it is for you to educate along purely intellectual lines; but a basic fact for you to remember is that your race is young and that the first problem is physical, that is, the solution of the meat and bread question. "Your race must emancipate itself from grinding poverty and accumulate wealth before you can have a secure foundation for the higher intellectual and cultural elements of our civilization. You must own your land, shops, stores, banks; you must build and keep comfortable homes. Your women must become neat, efficient and thrifty housewives and your men must have a regular occupation and stick to it. You should follow the lead of your distinguished chairman in this respect. "The board of trustees of the University of Arkansas, which administers the Branch Normal for colored people, has under advisement a plan to organize that institution along the lines here indicated. We hope to be able to make of that institution a practical agriculture, mechanical, domestic science and normal school for the colored people of this State.

Ninety-nine applicants for medical licenses in Indiana successfully passed the July examinations of the state board of medical registration and examination. L. Aldridge Lewis, a colored interne at the city hospital, making the highest grade. He received 947 out of a possible 1,000 points. Three other applicants are in the honor list of those receiving a grade of 900 or better. These were J. W. A. Emhart, M. A. Armstrong and J. S. Holloway, all of Indianapolis. A. L. LEWIS. Lewis is the first colored applicant who has ever won first place in the medical examinations in Indiana. He was an honor man in the 1911 graduating class of the Indiana university school of medicine. The above taken from the Indianapolis News, of Indianapolis, Ind., is a second recognition of the ability of this young man. Mr. Lewis is well known in this city. His many friends will rejoice with his parents over the record he has made. Many of the best medical colleges in the country were represented in this examination, among them were Howard, Pennsylvania, John Hopkins, Rush, Northwestern, Michigan, Illinois and Ohio. Dr. Lewis Is the son of Mr. L. H. Lewis, mall carrier No. 43, of this city. CONVENES IN 16th BIENNIAL SESSION. FORMAL OPENING OF CAMP SUNDAY—MAMMOTH STREET PARADE—OVER FIFTY THOUSAND VISITORS IN THE CITY—BOOKER T. WASHINGTON ON THE SCENE—APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEES—SUPREME CHANCELLOR READS ANNUAL ADDRESS—OTHER SUPREME OFFICERS MAKE REPORTS — SUPREME COUNSELLOR JONES OPENS COURT—ADJOURN SATURDAY. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 23.—The sixteenth bi-ennial session of the Supreme Lodge and Supreme Court of Calanthe, and the sixth National Encampment of the Military Department of the order of Knights of Pythias was begun here Monday morning. The formal opening of Camp Strauther at the State Fair Grounds took place Sunday in order to be able to accommodate the early arrivals. The Pythian army is reported to be coming to the number of over twenty-five thousand and the visitors who have taken advantage of the cheap rates to visit this beautiful city will augment the number to over fifty thousand. The entertainment committee has acquitted themselves nobly, and no complaint is heard anywhere. Monday at 8:00 p. m. the opening ceremonies were held, and were carried out in grand style. Tuesday the first business session of the Supreme Lodge was held in the new Pythian Temple, corner Senate avenue and Walnut street, Supreme Chancellor Green, presiding. In the afternoon a very impressive memorial service was held. A special program had been prepared for the occasion and was carried out to the letter. Tuesday night Dr. Booker T. Washington spoke to a packed house of delegates and citizens at Coliseum. Dr. Washington was introduced by E. G. Tidrington, grand chancellor of the Indiana Pythians. He spoke of Mr. Washington as the greatest man of the race and the acknowledged leader of the Negroes in America. The American Negro, Dr. Washington said, should be proud of his race, and should decide that there is as much chance for him in this country as there is for the poor foreigners who come here from the old world. The fraternal organizations, he declared, are great agencies in bringing about the necessary conditions for the uplift of the race. He said further: Among the organizations which have for their object the betterment of the condition of the masses of colored people is the Knights of Pythias. This organization and its leaders have the confidence and good will of our race to a remarkable degree. I count myself fortunate in being invited to be your guest and to say a word to you. I wish in the first place to congratulate you, not only upon the present prosperous and hopeful condition of this organization, but to congratulate you also upon the fact that in the past harmony and peace have prevailed within your borders. You who are living and working in the present owe much to yourselves and owe much to that great leader and head of the organization, Samuel Starks, of West Virginia. Largely it was through his work, his loyalty to the race and to this organization, that it was placed upon such a firm foundation, and it is largely through the work and influence of Samuel Starks that this organization enjoys it present prosperity. I not only congratulate you upon the high character and worth of your departed leader, but equally so upon the high type and character of the work of your present chief and leader, S. W. Green, of New Orleans. This organization will continue to prosper in proportion as it has such unselfish leaders at its head. The supreme chancellor delivered his biennial message today and C. K. Robinson, supreme keeper of Records and seals, and John H. Young, master of the exchequer, made their reports. The Supreme Court of Calanthe opened its sessions with Joseph Jones of Cincinnati, O., presiding. The committee on credentials was 'apopinted and Mr. Jones delivered a short address. All the committees were appointed today and both lodges will be in session until the latter part of the week. Maj. R. R. Jackson had more men in the camp than ever before, and the parade was the largest in the history of the order. COMMITTEE FROM KNOWLES SCHOOL ALLIANCE MAKES APPEAL TO PARENTS. The attendance last year at Knowles School was greatly increased by the hard work of the Alliance. We are hoping that there will be a greater improvement this year. Let every child enter the first day and continue. The dilapidated building, old and unsightly furniture, and poor water supply must not discourage any one, for we are working and praying for better conditions. Several children were supplied with shoes, clothing, etc., families were aided in various ways. We hope to better the condition of the entire community, which is taking on new life. Last winter a house to house canvass was made which brought a large number of women to the meetings. Papers on "Tardiness," "Proper food for children," "More boys must be graduated from the high school," etc., were read and discussed. Dr. S'ewart helped us so much through his lecture on "Contagious Diseases Among Children." A large number of little ones have been led to Sunday-school and church. The work must be more than doubled this year. Mesdames S. P. Harris, Carrie Lewis and Maria C. Kenney. CAMPAIGN IS ON. The campaign for ten thousand Odd Fellows in Tennessee was inaugurated Wednesday night, the 23rd, inst., at which time a large and enthusiastic meeting was held by the employees of the A. M. E. SundaySchool Union and their friends for the purpose of organizing a new lodge. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Ira T. Bryant, who, after stating the object of the call, introduced Grand Director Patterson, who explained minutely the manner of procedure. Each one present placed his name to the roll and the first move was ended. MR. A. L. WHITTAKER. The above is a likeness of Mr. A. L. Whittaker, one of Nashville's most brilliant young men, who is making good in Mississippi. The many friends of Mr. Whittaker will be glad to learn that he has been appointed superintendent for one of the largest insurance companies of the Delta State. He graduated with the class of 1910 from Pearl High School and attended Fisk University one year. During the years of school life, especially the last seven years, Mr. Whittaker has worked at night in the foundry of Nashville. He was also prominent in the Y. M. C. A. work, as well as in the social circles. It remains to be said that he was one of our greatest athletes. Mr. Whittaker is now located at Greenwood, Miss., as superintendent of a district of a thirty mile radius. No. 33 KNIGHTS OF WISE MEN MEET IN SUPREME SESSION HERE Session Held in Boyd Building. LARGE DELEGATION PRESENT— SEVERAL STATES REPRESENTED—WELCOME MEETING A LIVELY TIME—REPORTS OF SUPREME OFFICERS SHOW PROGRESS ALONG ALL LINES—UNLIKE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS—EVERY FEATURE OF THE WORK ORIGINAL—NO ELECTION OF OFFICERS THIS YEAR—SESSION WILL BE BRIEF ONE—DELEGATES BEING ENTERTAINED The Supreme Lodge of Knights of Wise Men and Ladies Pleades Chamber began a very busy and profitable session at Boyd's hall Tuesday morning. Quite a large delegation is here from Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and other states. The first day's meeting was devoted largely to listening and responding to addresses of welcome which were delivered by prominent Nashvillians. The appointment of committees of Credentials, Mileage, Law and Supervision were made by the Supreme Archon. These appointments gave general satisfaction. The session has all the elements of good feeling; 'not a discordant note has been sounded. All the delegates seem to have in view not only the good of their immediate fraternity, but the welfare of the entire Negro race. The reports of the officials were very gratifying. The Supreme Archon's annual address was redolent with good things, showing that the order was out of debt and on the road to prosperity. No lawsuits are feared from the resgnant race, as the Knight's copy none of the white man's names, insignia nor rituals. All of their books, secret works, etc., are the product of Negro brain. The financial report was all that could be desired. The state of the order was shown to be excellent, there being a steady addition of members throughout the supreme jurisdiction. The Supreme Archon advised his hearers to trust God and obey the laws of the land. Supreme Deputy Archon, H. J. Richardson, of Huntsville, in his report spoke of a need of a better understanding of the races. He argued for the maintenance of virtue and righteousness. He was roundly applauded. The report of E. H. Gilliand, Supreme Scribe, was a forceful one. The books and papers of his office were found to be in splendid shape. Supreme Treasurer I. G. Iverson was next to report. He showed that there was a good surplus on hand, all claims having been paid. Owing to the fact that the election of officers occurs only every two years, and this not being an election year, the session will be very brief. The citizens of Nashville are giving the delegates a royal good time. KNOWLES SCHOOL ALLIANCE HONORS ONE OF ITS MEMBERS Wednesday evening, August 16th, forty or more members and friends of the Knowles School Alliance spent a delightful evening at the residence of Mrs. W. A. Lewis, on Jefferson street, in honor of Mrs. Lottie Kelley, who with her family left the next day for Chicago, where she goes to be with her husband, who has been there for some time. The Alliance regrets to lose so ardent and faithful a member as Mrs. Kelley. On behalf of the club, Mrs. Lewis, in a neat speech, presented Mrs. Kelley a very pretty cut glass mint receptacle. Mrs. Kelley responded very feelingly, after which Mrs. Harris, the president, made some well chosen remarks. Mrs. T. Clay Moore served frapo in front hall and an ice course was served. Before leaving all endeavored to assure Mrs. Kelley that she carried with her to the Windy City their love and best wishes.

The welcome address to the pastor was delivered by Mrs. Lena D.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1911. Pay Your Poll Tax Now. The registration period has closed and it is needless to waste words about those men who neglected this all-important duty. We turn our attention now to the men who have taken the first step toward preparing themselves to exercise the franchise privilege. If you have not paid your poll tax, you are in a worse fix than before you registered, for every man who registers shows his desire to vote in the elections and to do his part in the selection of men who are to administer the laws. It is gratifying to note that in some of the wards there has been a large registration of Negro voters. This is due to the fact that in these wards there are vast communities of Negro citizens, and in some cases the majority of them are home owners, so it is conceded these men can be depended upon to vote. Voting is a high privilege and is granted alike to the poor as well as the rich in this country, if they qualify themselves to exercise the right. The requirements it. Tennessee are only two, namely, every man must register and pay his poll tax. Of course he must be intelligent enough to mark the ballot that is presented to him on election day, and we do not believe any man who cannot do these things has any right to vote, for he is not well enough informed to be able to judge for him self between candidates. It is often said that Negroes will not pay their poll taxes, but instead expect one to pay it for them. This, if it ever were true, is less so now, for the Negro men who vote are those men who are working to lift themselves and their people to a higher citizenship. The man who will not pay his poll tax should not be allowed to vote, and a heavy penalty should be imposed for any attempt to get a poll tax paid. We do not believe there are many Negroes who have registered that will allow another man to pay their poll tax for them. They are courageous men and they are above such tactics. They pay their own poll tax, and we are merely calling their attention to it now for fear they may have overlooked it. We urge them to go at once if they have not done so, and pay their poll tax and thereby get ready for the contest that is coming. The Press Association. The National Negro Press Association, in its last session in Little Rock, was from all accounts a stormy one. This is to be expected when men of so many ideas get together. However, we fail to see that there was any cause for so much wrangling. There has not been a meeting of the association since its organization, at which there were not some changes made in the official roster. The first change we have always thought to have been a wise one. We believe that Mr. Thompson had the ability to make a number one secretary for the Press Association, and the only charge, we NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. AUGUST 25. 1911. think, that might have seemed a cause for lodging complaint against him was, he did not do what he should have. We feel, however, that he should have been given a chance, or at least an opportunity to promise to do his full duty. Another phase of the question is, had the association outlined any work for the secretary to do? If they had not, he was not wholly the blame for not having done anything, for the secretary is the servant of all, and his special duty is to carry out the orders of the body that created him. This organization is in its infancy and too great results should not be expected in too short a period. However, the thing is done now, and it is useless to spend any time in wherefores about it. The thought that should receive the consideration of everyone interested in this project is what method can be adopted that will best serve the interest of the association? That such an association is a necessity goes without saying, for if the Negro press is ever to be a force in this country, they must understand each other and the only way they can do so is to be in an organization through which they can be reached. It often happens that agitations are started in this country by the daily press that are very unjust to Negroes. Charges are also made that are untrue. To give the truth to the world when these crises arise it is necessary that the Negro newspapers speak as one. There is one case on record that stands out prominently in substantiation of the claim for united action by Negro newspapers. We refer to the systematic and persistent fight of the Negro papers against the attempted discrimination in the appointment of enumerators to take the last census. It appeared from every movement made by the authorities at that time that it was their intention to appoint no Negro enumerators. But when it was shown beyond doubt that unless the Negroes were given recognition the country would suffer, the authorities hastened to change their tactics and give just recognition of Negroes. What was done in that instance can be done in others, and we are hoping that the time will soon come when the National Press Association will be recognized all over this country as a controlling factor. We congratulate the new officials and assure them that they shall have our most hearty co-operation. We hope they will be able to make a good report twelve months hence, but it must be remembered by them that it will take twelve full months to get that report ready. Mob Doctrine. A few days ago two little white boys in a town in the state of Kentucky were out in a barn and the older one, at the age of about fourteen, decided to show the younger brother, who was about nine years old, how to conduct a lynching. The older boy proceeded to tie the rope around his own neck, climbed upon the rafters in the barn and tied the rope around one of the rafters. Just about that time he slipped and wenf headlong down to the end of the rope, and in reality demonstrated to his brother how a lynching could be conducted in his father's barn. The screams of the younger boy attracted the mother, only to find her older son dead. This is not the first instance in which white boys have come to their death in this manner, and it shows how thoroughly the white people of America are instilling into their children the mob doctrine. Instead of decreasing it seems to be increasing, for the actions of these children is proof sufficient that the mob doctrine is taught around the fireside and that it is considered by the white people of this country to be a sacred duty they owe their children. And what is the result? From Maine to California, and from the Lakes to the Gulf there is not a community in which this doctrine is not taught and believed by a large number of people. Consequently the American nation is drifting into a state of barbarism, for no civilized nation would tolerate a mob, and it is a fact beyond contradiction that the American nation more generally tolerates mobs to-day than it did fifty years ago. than it did fifty years ago. This agitation was started primarily against the Negro. The Southern white man conceived the idea that if he could contaminate Northern communities with his mob doctrine, he would, to a great extent, be consolled in his hellish acts against a helpless people. To that extent he has succeeded, for the North no longer can point to the South as the section of the country only in which this helnous crime is committed. Only recently the state of Pennsylvania was subjected to a most diabolical illustration of this mob law. The New York Age discussing this affair in the current issue, states some very significant facts. The Age says, "The barbarians burned Walker, but they burned at Walker's race. Walker's race feels the sting, feels the degrading whip of scorn cracked on this awful occasion by the hungry beasts in the wilds of southern Europe. Walker's race has borne in patience the persecution of fifty bitter years. But Walker's race begins to weary under the burden of lynch law." In concluding, the Age says, "The United States may go on in its drunkenness; it may debauch itself on the wine of self-glory; it may oppress the Negro race; it may run wild over airships and close its eyes to wicked sights and its ears to the cries of justice; but soon or late there will be hell to tell the captain." This is very strong language, but it is nevertheless true. Mobs are in no sense synonymous of law. No country can exist that tolerates lawlessness; that allows a portion of its citizens to take human life at will, and unless this nation can put a stop to the mob doctrine before it is universally inculcated into the minds of the rising generation, this country will see a condition worse than is found in any of the countries of the Old World. As the Age says, the Negro has borne the persecution patiently, hoping that a better day would come, and he is still hoping that Providence will in some way change the American sentiment and that we all may live in peace and harmony in this great country. School Days. In a few days the doors of the city schools will be thrown open for the reception of the army of young people who are to make up our citizenship in the years to come. Many happy hours have been spent by the boys and girls during vacation and they are ready now to resume their studies in the school room. We wish to call the attention of parents to the importance of getting the children in school at the beginning of the term. In the first place it is necessary to be there on the first day in order to get a seat. In the second place, one day behind means more than is apparent at first thought. The child should be started at the very beginning and then the parents should see to it that they go to school every day in the year if it is possible for them to get there. Prepare them for the cold weather that is sure to come. Lay aside enough money to buy all the books they need and then strive to keep them well, comfortably clothed that they may have no cause for being absent. Every parent who will do these things will realize in the years to come that the energy and money required to do this was well spent. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS Mr. Charles H. Burrill, the first foreman and proof-reader of our Publishing Board at Nashville, passed to his eternal home from his home in Brooklyn, N. Y., July 12, 1911.

(Continued from Page 1) We are certain that in this effort we will have your hearty co-operation. "In closing, let me assure you of the good will and sympathy of our people. While here and there a white man may wrong the colored man, yet you may be assured that all honest and meritorious movements by the colored man are greatly appreciated by the people of Arkansas." The closing scenes of the National Negro Business League were crowded with interesting events. Dr. Booker T. Washington was re-elected, as a matter of course, and, in fact, all of the old officers with few exceptions were re-elected. The following resolutions were adopted: "The National Negro Business League, in twelfth annual session assembled, finds many things for which the race and the country may well rejoice. The movement among the Negroes of this country to buy land, establish commercial institutions, schools and other organizations, which are growing stronger each year. The race has recognized the truth that the standard by which it is to be measured in its permanent place is that which has been applied to all other elements which enter into our common citizenship. "Having by reason of past conditions been deprived of capital training and opportunity to enter the field of manufacture, transportation and commerce, we necessarily turn our attention almost exclusively to agriculture. But now under the stimulus of this organization we are starting upon the more expanded economic stage so necessary to our full development. "We find that since our last session more banks have been started, more commercial enterprises and stores opened, and more manufactories begun than in any other single year of our history. We believe that the ownership of land, the acquisition of an education, particularly the common school and vocational education, the improvement of the home, both as to its appearance and the inner life and loyalty to the teachings of Christ are the foundations upon which civilization is to be built. "We urge with all the emphasis at our command that our people buy land. Buy it now, get ready for even sooner than we may expect this door of opportunity may be closed. "On every moral issue we urge our race at the ballot box to allign itself with the forces of law and order and civic righteousness. No man can be permanently kept out of the place which belongs to him by reason of his usefulness as a factor in the industrial life of the community. His character as a man and his ability to look upon matters of general public and general concern, with a vision wide enough to protect the interests of all. "We are profoundly grateful for the interest shown in our progress by the best element of the white people, both North and South. Their spoken words of cheer and their deeds on kindness speak in louder tones than words and have done much to inspire us. "In all the history of this movement nowhere has this feeling of sympathy, friendship and real Christian helpfulness found a more pronounced expression than here in Little Rock—the city where any Negro should be glad to be counted a citizen. We can hardly find words strong enough to express our gratitude to Governor Donaghey for his masterly address to us, which not only evinces the type of Christian sympathy, but to our minds the highest type of statesmanship. "We feel it due to the colored citizens of Little Rock concerning our entertainment to say in the language of the Bible, 'Thou excelest them all.' "We congratulate our race upon the remarkable showing made by those communities composed entirely of members of our race. Their record for ability to initiate and maintain enterprises, to establish and enforce law and order and to win the respect and even the admiration of the people of their State and the country is not only a source of encouragement to our own race, but is the finest possible concrete argument that the Negro is worthy of citizenship. "We hope that the great faternal "We hope that the great fraternal organizations among our race will either establish financial institutions of their own or let the millions that they own be used to strengthen our financial institutions already established. We reaffirm our faith in wisdom, judgment and purity of purpose of our leader, Booker T. Washington, and believe that under his safe and sane leadership the race will climb step by step into full and complete citizenship." A petition to Congress was read by the same committee which read: "The National Negro Business League in twelfth annual session do renew our petition to the President of the United Statts favoring the bill to pay the balance due the depositors in the Freedman Savings and Trust Company, and to establish a National Memorial Home for aged and infirm colored people and working girls out of the money due the estates of the deceased colored soldiers, sailors and marines of the Civil War that cannot be paid to the individuals as a matter of justice." The resolution asked that the mater be referred to the President of the United States and ask him to renew his recommendation to the Sixty-second Congress that was made to the Sixty-first and also a copy be sent to the chairmen of the committees having charge of these measures. After considerable minor business and several addresses by individual members of the organization, the league adjourned to meet in Chicago in 1912. BANKERS ELECT OFFICERS. W. R.

EMBALMING COLLEGE FOR NASHVILLE, TENN. Special to the Globe The Cincinnati College of Embalming has decided to open in the city of Nashville, Tenn., an Embalming College for the benefit of the men or the South. And as a result Mr. J. L. Leach has been appointed to take charge of this new department as demonstrator and lecturer. This school will be operated on the same basis as the original school in Cincinnati, Ohio, with the same requirements, and carrying the same curriculum and tuition and being able to award the same diploma. Mr. Leach is a product of the Cincinnati School of Embalming, having graduated with high honors at the head of his class, being the only colored student in his class. This school will be located near the Meharry Medical College, thereby enabling Mr. Leach to resume his studies in medicine. In addition to all this the next best thing to be said is the proposition Mr. Leach takes it up thoroughly equipped in every way, capable in handling of the same. He is thorough and conscientious in his work and has earned for himself an enviable reputation as a funeral director and a scientific and artistic embalmer. Mr. Leach, at present, is connected with the Sinkford and Warren firm at Bluefield, W. Va., where he is doing splendid work. This appointment, however, will cause him to sever his connection with this firm. This is to be regretted, but in the light of the fact that he enters a larger and more useful field of labor to the Negro race. Louisville & Nashville R. R. New Union Station.
