NASHVILLE GLOBE MR. S. P. HARRIS. Councilman from Third Ward. VOL. VI. THE HOWSE TICKET WINS GILLESPIE COMPLETE- LY SNOWED UNDER Schnell Defeated by Harris for Council NEGROES-STOOD TO THEIR GUNS LIKE VETERAN SOLDIERS— FIRST NEGRO COUNCILMAN NASHVILLE HAS HAD IN MANY YEARS—HIGH CLASS IN EVERY RESPECT—NEGROES WELL DIVIDED IN CONTEST. Democrats swept Nashville in Thursday's municipal election. Every man on the ticket, from Mayor to Marshal, was elected by majorities ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 votes. Indications were at midnight that Mayor Howse's majority may reach 2,500 Half the city wards had been heard from, and these returns indicate the re-election of the present Mayor by 2,000. The City Council is also Democratic. The nominees of the party have won the councilmanic races in nearly every ward. The total vote was 13,293. That is the biggest vote in the history of the city. Galns were made in all liberal wards. In the Third Ward the battle was fierce. This ward had a Negro registration of 477 against 261 whites. Mr. S. P. Harris, a lawyer of high standing and bookkeeper at the National Baptist Publishing House, was chosen by the colored voters to carry their banner. The result of the election shows that Mr. Harris has won by a good majority. The vote stands Harris 244. Schnell 194. This is the third attempt of the Negroes of that ward in the last fifteen years to elect a councilman, and though the ward has always had a majority of Negro voters, this is the first time they have succeeded in electing their man.

His father was a farmer, but not without self-denial did he educate Thomas, and to use Dr. Haigler's own words, "born in the hall of poverty and rocked in the cradle of obscurity." He received a common school education by working on the farm in the spring and summer and going to school in the fall and winter.

Those who speak thus do so without a careful consideration of all the facts. 1. The church is a very powerful influence in the progress of civilization and the evolution of a race. 1000 A patient who had several stitches taken in his heart by Dr. Wilson at Wilson's Infirmary. It may not be impossible for civilization to exist without religion, but there is no historic evidence that it ever has done so and there is nothing in the present status of things to indicate that it ever will do so. Then it follows that had we no churches we would have no religion, and without religion we would have no civilization; and without civilization what would stocks and bonds or factories, or commercial enterprises be worth? In fact, how could they exist? So, then, money invested in churches is not wasted. 2. There is something elevating and inspiring about fine buildings. Their educative value is almost beyond computation. A community of worshipers that builds a fine church is usually a well-behaved and refined community. Hence money put in fine churches is a good investment. wire globes over them where there is danger of anything inflammable being blown into the flame. (4) Keep your coal oil in closed metal cans.

Putting money in churches does not prevent the accumulation of money and property by thrift and honest energy, but encourages it. Communities that contribute liberally to churches are usually possessed in other directions.

Science and fitness, he contended, counted, and with those who possessed these two qualities nothing could hinder their progress.

Faithful church membership never hinders an individual's business success, and building good churches never im- overishes a race. What the Negro race needs to-day is more thrift and more religion.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1911. The Election. The election is over. Democracy has won a decisive victory. The odds were against them, but true to her history, the "City of Rocks" remains safely in the Democratic column. For the first time in many years a Negro was elected to the City Council. Mr. S. P. Harris, the successful colored candidate, is a high-class gentleman. He is a graduate of the law department of the University of Michigan and has for years been connected with the National Baptist Publishing House. Mr. Harris goes into office not as a politician but as a citizen competent to look after the interest of his ward. No one need entertain any uneasiness as to his being able to give a good account of himself, for he won his election because of his fitness rather than choice. The Negroes in this election were, as has been the case for several years, well divided, but a large majority were for the regular ticket. They differed on the issues of the day and they did so manly. They never forgot that all are citizens of the same city and the interest of one is the interest of all. Now the election is over. If there has arisen at any time a feeling of bitterness, let all forget the incident and join hands to make this city better for us all to live in. This is a Globe victory. We claim it because we won it. For two years the regular democrats in this city have been without a mouthpiece. Both daily papers were fighting them, but the Globe has stood as a flickering light and a beacon of hope. We have done so because we believed it was right and we believe so now. The Democrat came on the scene just in time to perform the burial ceremony, and she did the job to perfection. Mayor Howse owes it to the people of this city to do his very best to give them a clean city and prove to the world the absurdity of the alarming statements that have been sent out from time to time in the daily papers. We acknowledge a copy of the annual catalogue of the Hopkinsville M. and F. College, located at Hopkinsville, Ky. Dr. P. T. Frazier is to be commended for the work he is doing in that section of the "Blue Grass" state. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. It has always been a mystery why apparently intelligent people, when at a concert or an entertainment of any high order, will laugh and talk while some singer or reader is trying to be heard. It is very ill-mannered and shows a lack of good breeding. If the entertainment is not to your liking, get up and go out but do not disturb those who do enjoy it and have paid for just that privilege.—Chicago Defender. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1911. MONEYED NEGRO'S MURDERERS CAUGHT. About two months have now elapsed since J. H. Turner, the pros, automobile hackman, restaurant and barber shop owner of Savannah, Ga., was murdered near Monteith while driving two white men through the country. Turner was worth about $15,000 and was widely known in that section. The killing occurred on the night of July 31. Boggs and Worley, of Decatur, Ala., the white murderers, knew that Turner had cashed a check that day for $500. Thinking he still had the money on his person, they engaged him to take them across country that night. But before going he placed the money in his wife's keeping. This was the last seen of Turner. Next day bits of human flesh, together with a bloody hammer, a shoe, a hat and bits of blood-stained paper were picked up on the road fourteen miles from Savannah. These were the clews with which the detectives worked. After a long search Turner's body was found in an old well twenty miles from the place where he was killed. The automobile was found at a place called Oliver in the possession of Mills and Parnell who had bought it from two strange white men for $100. In the hat found on the road was the name of a clothing firm of Decatur, Ala., in which city Boggs was arrested. Worley was traced to Detroit, Mich., arrested and brought back. It is said the men have confessed to committing the crime.—Southern Life Magazine. There is no question about Dancy's fitness to hold the position of Negro "leader" in the coming campaign. The doubt is as to the followers. For there is not a Negro of voting age who does not think he is a natural born political leader. And the strangest part of it is that some of them claim the white people believe it.-The advocate. WILL THEY MAKE PROPER PROVISION. YES? We were asked a few days ago, would the white people make proper provision at the Jefferson Theater for the colored people? We answered this question by saying, in our opinion, they would, but not until the Negroes quit crowding there, as they are now, with no accommodation. The eyes of the very best white citizens are on us; our deportment must be above par if we hope to have their protection in our effort for civil and human rights. No family in any community who does not respect itself is respected by that community; no community in any city, district or country, who does not deport itself in a way to be respected by the city or district, will be respected. The same stands good with a race of people. We must have pride and integrity, so much so that we will disregard and look upon with disgust anything seeking to put us in a rude, unpolished and unhuman position. We submit that these back-alley conveniences to get to these playhouses are inhuman, with a price placed upon it. Now the real question comes to us, will we stop it? In our opinion it is a matter thoroughly in the hands of the colored people. We can have accommodations in the next sixty days if the proper steps are taken. First stop accepting the one that you now have. Have all whom you can to stop. During the theater season the Negroes put into the gallery of the Jefferson and other theaters more than $200,000, and this is, in our opinion, enough to give them a decent place to enter and a decent place to sit. —Birmingham Reporter. THE DANGER OF REFORM Within a week or so Rudolph Blankenburg and his followers will be making the air redolent with promises of reform. One knowing the true motives of such blatant fellows might well exclaim: "Oh, reform, what sins are committed in thy name!" Whenever the cry of reform is raised one finds a vast concourse of people who really think that it means something genuine. In point of fact it is a fake cry raised to deceive the people, thinking that in this way a lot of hungry fellows will get a political job and lots of other fellows will be brought into public notice, or else die to fame and fortune unknown. As another writer has said we all agree that there is too much law. True, as long as it is necessary to have rules for the conduct of the members of civilized society, we must have law, but we must have bread to live and too much bread will make one sick, and the country seems to be sick from too much law. The bulk of the laws are passed by reformers; we mean those who want to effect a reform, not particularly that class of reformers who is perpetually against the things that are and the powers that rule. In fact, there is very little new that has been learned in government. The introduction of the railroad steamship, telegraph, telephone and other methods by which distances have been cut down and the whole world brought into more intimate relationship, has, of course, brought about a new condition of things demanding some new legislation. Trusts would have been impossible without these methods of communication, and of course railroad monopoly and public service evils have all grown out of these comparatively new economic methods. But applied to the morality of mankind, in general, the older the law the more effective there were the common or unwritten laws handed down to us, created centuries ago, are our best and most effective laws today. Give a reformer a change and he would legislate himself into heaven and all other folks to Hades. To listen at them, there would be no necessity of the Church trying to save sinners, because none who wore their garb could save. There would be a law which would prevent it all. And the greatest mistakes that have ever been made in legislative enactments, mistakes which have caused untold suffering, were the passing of laws by so-called reform people. And yet they never tire. There seems to be reformers constantly coming to take the place of those who have learned better and are willing to accept the more practical things and depend upon that steady motive power for good, evolution, to more permanently better conditions.—Philadelphia Tribune. Nineteen nineteen will be the three hundredth anniversary of the Negro in America. He has had his ups and downs, but at that he's way ahead of the Negro of elsewhere. Barring some little civil irregularities and unequal opportunity he can make his existence just about what he chooses to make it. If he cannot take part in a white man's business he can build his own business. Nor is this a dream. The South teens with enterprises colored men, and because they were not expected in the business conducted by white men. Our condition could be better; it could be worse. It is worth a memorial in 1919.—Freeman. FISK OPENS SEASON SATURDAY FISK OPENS SEASON SATURDAY. Saturday, October 14th, opens properly the great game which causes the blood to fairly fly through the veins as you watch the husky warriors upon the gridiron battle with each other for supremacy. Fisk brings to Nashville Saturday a team heretofore unknown to the lovers of football, but which comes with a reputation which never quits but fights to the last second. Pearl High not having a team this year to open the season, Lebanon comes and gladly is she welcomed, for the sport lovers were becoming impatient for the game to begin. The season promises to be one of the best around Nashville. The teams this year will not be as heavy as previous years but probably faster and as the game is rapidly becoming one of brain rather than brawn the spectators may expect some fast foot ball. Fisk has lost most of her old stars and will be compelled to develop a new machine. She is fortunate in securing the services of Dr. L. E. Welker of Grinnell and Harvard fame. Coach Welker is a man of few words, but prefers to let his work talk. Watch Welker. Meharry has her old stand-by, Coach Ransom, whose equal is hard to find. Coach Ransom has always been a favorite with Nashville people and will receive a hearty welcome from all. Walden and Roger Williams are a little late in getting out on the gridiron, but may expect to give greater things than in previous years. Walden has a good bunch of husky fellows to form a team of, and will no doubt cause all the boys to sit up and take notice. The incomparable Canady, Meharry's giant tackle, claims to have the best bunch of material that have ever donned crimson and black uniforms. They are practising regularly and expect to develop another champion team. Several out-of-town teams will be seen in Nashville this fall, prominent among whom is Talladega, known over the Southland for her stocky, fighting men. Among her players have been numbered such as Terry, Johnson, etc. A big crowd will go out Saturday and give the season a grand send-off. The game is called promptly at 2:30 on Bennett Field. M. E.

Clark University, Atlanta, Ga.; theology at Gammon School of Theology, Atlanta, Ga.; philosophy at Chicago; pharmacy at the Northwestern University, Toledo, O. He matriculated in the Northwestern and Toledo Medical Colleges of Toledo, O., and Meharry Medical College, of Nashville, Tenn. Finally he matriculated and graduated with great honors as doctor of medicine and surgery. He married Miss Mary A Gantt, of Midway, S. C., November 10, 1878, and to this conjugal union there was born a son, the late James William Gamaliel Haigler. This only child is now resting in the cemetery at Chattanooga. Dr. Haigler began to practice medicine and surgery in Toledo, Ohio, and met with wonderful success; his parents were both white and colored. In the fall of 1888 he removed to Chattanooga, Tenn., where he practiced for several years, while engaged in religious work. He was a member of the Masonic Fraternity in which he gained great distinction. HIS RELIGIOUS WORK. He was reared in the Sunday-school at St. Peters A. M. E. Church at Cameron, Orangeburg county, S. C., and was converted and joined the St. Peters A. M. E. Church. In the Sunday-school he filled every office. February 7, 1877, at Columbia, S. C., he was admitted to the itinerancy and joined the regular ministry of the A. M. E. Church. He was ordained deacon in 1879 by the late Rt. Rev. John M. Brown, D. D. He was ordained elder December 12, 1880, at Sumter, S. C., by the late Rt. Rev. W. F. Dickerson, D. D. Dr. Haigler has been preaching many years and has filled some of the very most important charges in South Carolina, Georgia, Ohio and Tennessee. He is by nature and education an orator and the theologian, scholar, physician, surgeon, druggist, short-hand writer. As a preacher he filled many important appointments in the state, chiefly Chattanooga and Nashville. While pastor of St. John, of this city, he was much loved by the membership of that great church. His ministry was greatly enlarged year after year, as he gave up his life for his race and the glory of Christ's kingdom, and outstripped the hopes of his most sanguine friends. When he was appointed as presiding elder he carved the same visionary zeal into his work that he had manifested in the pastorate. He tried to help every brother aspiring to nobler things. This was his motto: "Let none hear you idly saying, There is nothing I can go: While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you." He died as he lived in the midst of a great work. God called him from the battlefield while he was working. The foretokens of an approaching end was near, and the sun- light of noon day kissed his brow, the angel of death smiled and he passed into that happy land. The last days on earth his wife drew nearer, and he said to ner, You are the best wife on earth. His actions and words from time to time told her that the end was not far off. While expressing his devotion to her as wife, he nevertheless said in his last moments, "I have put my hand to the gospel plow, and am going to plow to the end." And when death was untying his heart strings he said, "I am going over there," and took a last leap with all right on his tongue. Peace be unto his ashes. The funeral was conducted at St. Paul A. M. E. Church. Thursday evening at 2:30. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, pastor of the church acted as master of ceremonies. The services were very solemn and scarcely a person in the house could hold back the tears at some time during the services. The excellent life of the deceased was eulogized in an appropriate way befitting the character of the man. The emotions of the large crowd attested to the esteem in which Dr. Haigler was held by the people in this city. As pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church he made an enviable reputation. He came here when the church was at a very low ebb and by his painstaking efforts he put new life into and added many to the church. As a reward for his labors he was promoted to the presiding eldership by Bishop B. F. Lee, which position he filled with credit till death ended his career in this world. Dr. W. H. Young read the Scripture lesson, Dr. I. J. Edwards offered prayer, Dr. S. L. Howard preached the funeral sermon. Bishop Tyree, by request, made a few remarks. Resolutions were read by Rev. G. W. Gaines. The remains were taken to Chattanooga Thursday night and interred with Masonic Lodge honors. MEHARRY NOTES. Consequent upon announcement, the Meharry Field Day, having for its object the augmenting of the George W. Hubbard Hospital fund, was held at Greenwood Park on Saturday, the 7th inst., under the auspices of the Hubbard Hospital Committee, commencing at 10 o'clock a. m. The weather appearing unsettled during the early hours of the morning, great far was entertained as to whether or not the plans of the day would be marred, but despite this on the approach of the appointed hour the crowds were seen wending their way to the park, prepared to participate in the pleasures which had been so skillfully planned for them. They were not disappointed, for the weather proved to be of the desired kind, the attractions were uniquely grand and on the whole the result of the day was very successful. As the program extended to a late hour of the evening, a few persons, not knowing better, had begun to wonder how could it be possible to secure a timely meal, but it was not long ere they found that their appetites had not been forgotten, and that the caterers had provided for even the most fastidious. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon the crowd having perambulated the park and seen its various attractions, repaired to the athletic field and occupied the grand stand, ready to exult in the pleasures provided for this part of the day. The first event was a practice game of cricket which was played by foreign students of Meharry. This being quite a novelty in these parts, greatly aroused the interest of many. Following this, the crowd was treated to pleasure by the students in running high jump, pole vaulting, a one mile relay race, 100 yard dash, a Shetland race, shotputting, an automobile race and a game of football which was played between the students of Meharry Colleges and those of Roger Williams University, the former winning by a score of 12 to 0. At 6:45 in the amusement hall of the park there was an exhibition of moving pictures, which was of a very interesting character and greatly interested the large number that attended. After this there was a horse show, followed by the distribution of prizes. This being over the crowd dispersed and repaired to their respective homes delighted at having spent a day so pleasantly and in such a worthy cause. MEHARRY'S FIELD DAY. Nashville Treated to a Rare Event In Out Door Exercise. More interest is now centered in the efforts being put forth at the Meharry Medical College, which is a part of Walden University, where the addition to the Hubbard Hospital is being planned for completion, than ever before because of the splendid field day, which was pulled off at Greenwood Park last Saturday. The Nashville people took a holiday. The city folks in large numbers surpassed all expectations and turned out to enjoy a real field day where exercises, amusements and entertainments had being provided for them. The reports from the committee and the officials declare that the venture was a financial as well as a social success from beginning to end. Quite a number of visitors were in the city and took part in making this occasion a splendid testonial of the high esteem that this institution has held in Nashville. Almost the entire student body from the various departments was present. The exact number that entered the gate was not given out, but it was estimated that several thousand were on he ground during the day and evening. ww. B. KAUFMAN GENUINE.

Senos! Vinton oF tne. Fairneld Baptist Church on Last Sunday. Declaring that the empty benches in the Sunday-schools of Nashville and the lack of interest in the work of the Sunday-school was in part traceable to the parents and church members, and that this lethargy must not continue, the Sunday-School Union of the city of Nashville, rep- resenting the forty odd Baptist churches and Sunday-schools, went on record last Sunday evening as be- ing opposed to conditions as they now exist. Speeches were made by Revs, Ma: Jors, pastor of the church, T. J. Lewis, Superintendent of the Union; H. A. Boyd, Misses L. B. Bushnell and Grace Eaton. Plans were perfected by which the pastors of the churches are to be asked to co-operate with the parents, who are members of their churches, in the matter of either bringing their children to the Sun- day-school or sending them there on Sunday morning. One of the speak- ers declared that if children could at- tend day school through ~the rain and with the paraphernatia that they, had, the same was fit for the Sunday: school, a religious service. He said that the Lord would smile on and bless those parents and families who put forth an effort to fill the house of the Lord on Sunday morning, A large attendance, which was late in gathering was enthusiastic over the Plans and discussions submitted. It was further announced that the second Sunday in November the Sun- day-School Union would meet at Mt. Olive Baptist Church at 2:30 p. m. It was urged that every church and Sunday-school in the city put forth an effort to make this meeting the greatest success of the year. A re- port was made showing that the Sun-| day-School Union chorus, which is to, be composed of several hundred’ voices, that is being organized to give | a religious rhetorical, was progress: ing nicely, yet, there are some Sun-, day-schools that have not sent in a! list of names to take part in: this) chorus, | Mrs, E. Brown was appointed by’ Superintendent Lewis as correspond-| ing secretary of the Union. Consti-| tutions and by-laws were handed oe at this meeting. CULLEOKA NOTES, Mr. James A.

London, Oct. 4.—Jack Johnson struck a Tartar today in the person of George Robey, a comedian who challenged the Negro champion to bout at the Palladium. Robey led off with two swinging blows at Jack's jaw, flooring him before he could counter. Johnson, however, did not take the count, but jumped to his feet and smoothed the comedian with a volley of straight lefts and rights, knocking him into the arms of the timekeeper. He then picked up his vanquished adversary and carried him off the stage, to the great amusement of the spectators. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL FOOT BALL THIS YEAR. From the present status of things it appears that the public will not have an opportunity to enjoy the splendid exhibition of football the Pearl High School team has been furnishing for several years. F-offs Cameron and Washington, who have been the main stays in the High School Association, have given up the management of the team, and from what can be learned the Red and White will not be seen on the gridiron this fall. This announcement comes as a surprise to the people. Many have been heard to express their regrets and consider the abandonment of this form of athletics in the High School a step backward. Pearl High has made a reputation on the checkered field that is enviable. The preparatory schools had come to look upon the boys from the city schools as foemen worthy of their steel. In fact, the big teams had to hustle to subdue these High School boys. The people of the city were very proud of the High School boys as they were all from the families of the home folks. The games played by them were gaining in popularity, and in a few years promised to rival the Fisk-Meharry game. Prof. Henry A. Cameron is one of the best coaches in the business, and it is certain that his services will be eagerly sought by some other institution if it is finally decided that the game will be dropped from the High School. FAIR A SUCCESS. General Manager Preston Taylor States Largest Attendance in History_of Organization. Without any serious break in the weather to hinder a large attendance, the annual session of the Colored State Fair was successfully closed in the city. It was stated that the attendance this year, as well as the interest in the fair had surpassed all former efforts, although, no estimate has been given as to the total attendance for the week. Rev. Preston Taylor, General Manager, and Mr. W. T. Hightower, who had charge of the gates, report that each day the attendance was better than last year. The exhibits of live stock were not as numerous, yet the fair was more representative from a state viewpoint, as eight counties were said to have been represented in the exhibits. The President of the Fair Association, Hon. J. C. Napier, who is Register of the Treasury, and who was here and officiated at the opening; the Secretary, Dr. J. B. Singleton, the President of the Ladies' Auxiliary, Mrs. N. H. Pius; Secretary, Mrs. H. A. Boyd, and in fact, the entire auxiliary of women, who worked so faithfully, are encouraged over the outcome of the exhibits, which represented the state of Tennessee in its annual fair. The prizes, cash as well as in awards, go to many counties in the state. The horse show at night furnished the most enjoyable entertainment of the evening. Many thoroughbred animals were shown on the track under the glare of the brilliant lights on the race course. The judges, each night, made impartial distribution of the prizes. It is said that already 'plans are on foot whereby next year a Floral Hall, where the ladies can have a more elaborate exhibition of culinary FOOT BALL FISK vs LEBANON BENNETT FIELD SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14 Game called at 2:30 P.

They also plan more stables for the accommodation of live stock. A place will be built for breeders and stock raisers who desire to show the advancement of the Negro along these particular industrial lines. The meeting for the election of officers for the Fair Association proper will be called at the earliest convenience. LIFE AND CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY OF TENNESSEE The growing importance of Nashville as a financial as well as a commercial center is strikingly shown in the increasing volume of insurance business and the Life and Casualty Insurance of Tennessee, with home office in Nashville, as a local organization, backed by sound and reliable business men, which is doing a great deal to advance the prestige of Nashville, as well as for the benefit of the South, by keeping in the South the money paid out for premiums. Organized and incorporated in September, 1903, this company has operated from the start along sound and conservative methods, by which it has steadily gained in the favor of one of the strongest companies in the South. The premiums are low, and are collected in small amounts weekly, thus giving the policyholder every possible opportunity to be prepared for sickness, accident and death. The marvelous growth of the company shows that they have built on a firm foundation, that the policy contracts are liberal and attractive and that the public is appreciative of the advantages of this strong Southern company. A. M. Burton, President of the Company, is one of the best known industrial insurance men in Tennessee and is thoroughly conversant with every feature of this class of insurance. Aggressive and conservative, he had administered the duties of his office in an able, efficient and tactful manner. Miladi's Note Book. FLEUR-DE-LIS CLUB. The Fleur-de-Lis Art Club held its first meeting of the club year, with the newly elected president, Mrs. A. G. Price, Thursday afternoon, October 5th. Following a custom of several years, there is no regular program for the first meeting. The members who have spent their vacation away from home, tell of their pleasures and experiences while away. These talks are always helpful as well as entertaining. The plans for this year's work are in the hands of the program committee, composed of Mesdames S. P. Harris, J. W. Bostick, C. O. Hadley, and D. A. Hart. The officers for this year are: Mesdames A. G. Price, President; R. P. Moore, Vice-President; J. B. Singleton, Lecturer; W. R. Baker, Assistant Lecturer; A. N.

Adams, of Louisville, Bailey Hamilton, Watkins and Misses Rhoten, of Tullahoma, and Alberta Davis. The next meeting will be held with Mrs. J. W. Bostick, 805 Seventeenth avenue, South, October 19, 1911. BONDS-ARMSTRONG. Simple in arrangement but beautifully planned was the marriage of Miss Louise Armstrong and Mr. Perry Bonds, which took place Tuesday evening, September 26th, at 8:30 o'clock at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. Maggie Armstrong, of 1822 Scovel street. A few friends and relatives witnessed the ceremony by Rev. Spencer Jackson. To the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march played by Mrs. Jackson, the bride and groom entered the parlor. The bride was lovely in white messaline satin trimmed in Irish lace, and carried a bouquet of bride's roses. The house decorations were ferns and cut flowers. After the ceremony an ice-course was served. Miss Armstrong was a Columbia girl, but for the past few years has made Nashville her home. She was for quite a while bookkeeper for Mr. A. N. Johnson, the undertaker. She made quite a number of friends who wish her much success in her new life. Mr. Bonds, who is an industrial and intelligent young man, is a Nashville boy. He, too, was at one time connected with the Johnson undertaking establishment. Mr. and Mrs. Bonds will be at home to their friends at 2416 Wells street, West Nashville. UNIQUE SURPRISE A unique surprise came to Mrs. M. E. Bryant, 1205 South Market, on her birthday, in the form of a postal card shower, when she received over 200 in one mail, coming from friends all over the United States. Through the Globe Mrs. Bryant wishes to thank her many friends for this pleasant surprise. METOKAS AND GALEDAS. First City Meeting of Organized Sunday-School Classes A Success. Covenant and fellowship, which is the meaning of the Greek and Hebrew words, Metoka and Galeda, played a conspicuous part in the mammoth organized Sunday-school class movement, which was held at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church, Tuesday night, under the auspices of the Nashville Metokas and Galedas. Although the notice for the meeting was short, the local officers of these classes, the Superintendent of the Teacher-Training Course, Dr. N. H. Plus and the executive members of the National Organization, Rev. J. Davenport Bushell, Deacon Jas. Martin, Mrs. J. D. Bushell, Miss Nellie E. King and Mr. H. A. Boyd, assisted by Rev. T. J. Lewis and Rev. W. S. Ellington and the entire membership of these two conspicuous classes, made a vigorous campaign, the result of which was the most rousing meeting in the interest of the Sunday-school ever held in Nashville. A splendid program with five minute speeches on the development of the organized Sunday-school classes as a potent factor in church life was rendered. The addresses of the evening were made by Drs. Bushell and Ellington. The Superintendent of the Teacher-Training Course stated at the close of the meeting that assurance had reached headquarters of the organization of over five hundred classes, but that more charters than this had already been mailed out. The First Baptist Church of East Nashville will entertain the next meeting of the Metokas and the Galedas. Y.M.L.C. One of the most vital topics of the day was discussed with much antagonism in the club on the two meetings past. "Why the Young Man of Today is Only Fifty Per Cent. Efficient." This subject was ably discussed in full by Messrs. Marshall, Harwell, Upshaw and others. The next meeting will be at the home of Jordan Stockard. 1616 State street. DEATHS. Levi S.
