NASHVILLE GLOBE.
OUTLOOK BRIGHT IN NASHVILLE
NEW BUSINESS ENTERPRISES STARTED.
General Feeling of Mutual Interest.
JOHNSON'S THEATRE NEARING COMPLETION — WILL HAVE LARGE SEATING CAPACITY— WILL BE OPERATED AS WELL AS OWNED BY NEGROES— EMBALMING SCHOOL ON FOURTH AVENUE— BRANCH OF CINCINNATI INSTITUTION — OTHER EVIDENCE OF MUCH PROGRESS.
The business outlook in Nashville among Negroes is very promising at this season. Many improvements are being made and permanent growth is visible in many ways. Several enterprises have started recently with such promise and it is rumored that others will be opened up within the near future. Nashville Negroes are soon to have what they have desired, namely, a first-class theatre owned and operated by members of the race. Mr. A. N. Johnson is erecting a commodious and magnificent brick building on Cedar street, which will have offices and store rooms in front and a theatre in the rear. The approach to the theatre will be through a wide, commodious hall or walk-way to a flight of stairs, which will lead to the theatre from the hallway. The seating capacity will be sufficient to accommodate the citizens of Nashville, and the plays selected, or rather the companies that will be engaged for this theatre will all be of the highest character. It is the manager's intention to make it a first-class amusement hall where all of the people can go and enjoy themselves.
Another business enterprise just started is the new embalming company started by Mr. Leach and others. The concern is under the direction of the Embalming College of Cincinnati. This branch is for the specific benefit of the Negroes who are in the undertaking business.
An enterprise of which not much is heard, but is destined to do a great good to the needy people is the old folks' home being erected by Dr. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. This institution will fill a long-felt need to the old people in the church that is supporting it and shows that the leading Negro pastors in the city are waking to the needs of the people Dr. Clark has done a great deal of work for the uplift of the people in Nashville, and never tires, but is always discussing and devising plans whereby the dependent of the race can be taken care of. Aside from these individual institutions the city is becoming aroused and concerned as to the welfare of its Negro citizens. They recognize the need of a library for Negroes that they may read and keep posted on the progress of the times. They also recognize the need of parks and playgrounds that the Negro children may be kept in a healthy condition. Every indication points to times of peace and happiness in this city. The slogan adopted by the Board of Trade, "Nashville Ofers Opportunity," is taken to mean that every citizen must be made to feel that he is a part of this munich pality. The opinion is expressed that the hearty co-operation of every Negro will be had, which co-operation serves as a great lever in the efforts being put forth to place Nashville in the proper sphere.
The Y. M. C. A. work among Negroes in receiving attention. It is pointed out that when the white people made their canvass for funds to erect their Y. M. C. A. building, that those Negroes who were able to do so contributed freely to that cause. It is also remembered that the Negro voters of the city came to the rescue when the high school proposition was before the people. The Nashville Negroes have convinced the world that they are interested in everything that pertains to the upbuilding of their home city and to keep this spirit alive it is argued
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 191
that it will be necessary for encouragement to be given to every citizen in the bounds of this corporation. The best of feeling prevails among the white and black people here and every one is showing the disposition to do unto his brother as he would be done by. It is believed that within the next few years Nashville will outrank any city in the South, for with the spirit of brotherly interest existing everywhere it is absolutely impossible to thwart that growth that comes to any community where all the citizens are pulling in the same direction.
BISHOP TYREE RETURNS TO
TEXAS.
Bishop Evans Tyree left the city Monday night for his field of labor in Texas to complete his quadrennial work. On the eve of his departure he expressed himself to a Globe representative as hopeful of a good year's work. He cited that the churches in the Lone Star State that are of the African Methodist connection had raised ten thousand and some odd dollars and cents for education. This money goes to Paul Quinn College at Waco, Texas, which is rapidly forging to the front among the schools of the African Methodist church. It is very probable that the next General Conference, which convenes in Kansas City in May, will transfer Bishop Tyree to some other district as he has spent eight years already in Texas. The people there, however, will be glad to have him return. It is not known just where he will be sent. However, the people of Texas are very proud of their leader and gladly receive him for the third guardrenial if the General Conference should see fit to send him back.
WASHINGTON PROSECUTES ULRICH.
The Educator's Assailant Again Pleads for Delay—Case Set November 6.
New York City, Oct. 17.—Harry A. Ulrich, the drunken thug who so brutally attacked Dr. Booker T. Washington, the Tuskegee educator, on a public street in this city last March, was "brought to book" in the Court of Special Session, Part V, today, Judges Zeller, Mayo and Ryan presiding. Dr. Washington was in court to prosecute Ulrich; present also were his secretary, Emmett J. Scott; Hon. Chas. W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District of New York; Fred R. Moore, writer and publisher of The New York Age; Hon. Ralph V. Tyler, auditor for the Navy Department, Washington. D. C.; George W. Harris, of the Amsterdam News, and other of Dr. Washington's friends. The people of the State of New York were represented by Assistant Attorney James E. Smith. Dr. Washington's personal attorney, Willard H. Smith, was present as consulting attorney.
Ulrich has continued to have this case continued each time it has been called for trial, hoping that Dr. Washington would drop the prosecution; to-day, through his counsel, he again pleaded for delay, claiming that he had not been able to get his witnesses into court—this despite the fact that he has had seven months to do so.
District Attorney Smith opposed the motion, claiming that Ulrich had no witnesses, and that his plea for delay was simply an effort to avoid the consequences of his brutal and uncalled for assault. The judges decided they would give him one more chance, and have set the case down for trial Monday, November 6. Dr. Washington has notified the District Attorney's office that he will cancel all the engagements he has for Wisconsin and the West, made long since, so as to be in court and prosecute Ulrich.
The assault occurred several months ago, and Ulrich at the time told contradictory stories of what led to it. To the police he said that he had taken Dr. Washington for a burglar, but to the reporters he said that Dr. Washington had insulted Mrs. Ulrich, his wife. Ulrich, however, was never married to the woman he claimed as his wife, and the real wife of Ulrich, who lives in New Jersey and was deserted by him several years ago, confronted him in court when he was today arraigned for trial.
NEGRO SEGREGATION NOT
CONSTITUTIONAL
Norfolk, Va., October 26.—The new segregation ordinance restricting the residence of Negroes to certain streets and localities was declared unconstitutional by Justice Duncan yesterday. The court held the question was one of taste rather than law. The case was appealed and will go to the Supreme Court.
A. M. E. CONFERENCE MEETS
Delegates to the General Conference.
ASSEMBLY BEING HELD IN ST.
JOHN—LARGE CROWDS IN ATTENDANCE — REPORTS ARE
VERY GOOD — GENERAL INCRESE IN FINANCES AND MEMBERSHIP—REV. S. L. HOWARD
LEADS—DINNER SERVED AT
CHURCH EACH DAY — NEXT
MEETING AT MT. PLEASANT—
APPOINTMENTS MONDAY.
The meeting of the Tennessee Conference of the African Metnodist Episcopal Church has attracted much attention during the week. From the time the conference opened Wednesday morning in St. John A. M. E. Church, up to this time the church has been crowded and the sessions interesting.
This year closes the administration of Bishop H. Blanton Parkes, is the general conference which meets in Kansas City, Mo., next May will doubtless assign him to another district, and several have been mentioned as his successor. It may be that one of the new bishops will come to Tennessee.
The conference is composed of a fine body of men from all parts of the state, and many visitors from ctser parts of the country are here, either general officers or aspirants for honors in the general church. They were to see and know the delegates who are to go to the general conference.
Rev. J. Q. Johnson lined the opening hymn Wednesday morning, and the opening prayer was made by Bishop Parks introduced Rev. F. W. Rev. A. P. Gray. Following this Bishop Parks introduced Rev. F. W. Gardner, presiding elder of the Shelbyville district, who preached the opening sermon. It was scholarly and well delivered. Then followed Holy Compunion administered by Bishop Parks, who was assisted by the presiding elders of the conference. "Before we go further let us sing the song that means so much to us as ministers of the gospel," said Bishop Parks, and lined "And are we yet alive?" The ministers joined in the singing with much fervor and shook hands.
The roll was called by Rev. J. A. Jones, D. D., of Shelbyville, President of Turner Normal and Industrial College. The following officers were elected: J. A. Jones, D. D., secretary; G. W. Hodge, assistant secretary; S. W. West, statistical secretary; L. Buford, C. L. Smith, J. W. Thompson, C. A. Jordan, S. L. Majors, marshals; J. T. Gilmore, correspondent to the Christ.an Recorder, Philadelphia; J. Q. Johnson, to the Southern Christian Recorder, Columbus, Ga.; T. W. Stephens, M. D., to the Western Christian Recorder, Kansas City, Mo.; J. A. Crump, to the Voice of Missions, New York City; Charles Stewart, official press representative to the daily press and secular papers.
At this point the Bishop announced that the conference was duly organized and officially announced the death of Rev. T. W. Haigler, presiding elder of the South Nashville district, and out of respect the conference adjourned five minutes. Then followed the introduction of visitors. Among those introduced were Revs. John Hurst, D. D., of Washington, D. C., financial secretary; Julian C. Caldwell, D. D., Nashville secretary Allen Christian Endeavor; Mr. Ira T. Bryant, Nashville, secretary of A. M. E. Sunday School Union; Revs. J. R. Ransom, D. D., Topeka, Kans.; M. H. Leath, Florence, Ala.; G. J. Robinson, Belle Fountain, Ohio; J. W. Richmond and W. L. Denton, of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The committees were announced and the conference spent the rest of the day hearing reports of pastors. Most of the reports were in advance of the previous year.
During the noon hour dinner was served in the lecture room of the church by a committee from Payne
Chapel A. M. E. Church, East Nashville.
"Self-help" was the keynote of the several addresses delivered at the reception given the bishops and members of the Tennessee conference at the African Methodist Episcopal Church Wednesday night at St. John's A. M. E. Church. A large crowd was present, many being unable to get standing room.
Rev. S. L. Howard, pastor of the church, presided. He said in the outset that the people were proud to have in the city some of the most men and women of the race, and that it was a pleasure to him to turn over to the conference headed by one of the most noted men of the Negro race of America, Bishop Parks, the keys of the church.
The first address of welcome was delivered by Dr. W. S. Ellington, editorial secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board. D. A. Hart, secretary of St. John's Church, delivered an address, after which Rev. J. A. Jones, president of Turner College, spoke.
Bishop Parks then made an able address in which he spoke of the Negro and his achievements during the past forty years, showing that he had not been asleep but was up and doing.
Before taking up the reports Bishop Parks introduced Rev. I. H. Jones, of the C. M. E. Church; W. G. Porter, D. D., and H. F. Smith, presiding elders of the Central Tennessee Conference; T. H. Blackman, H.P. Becher, of the Methodist Episcopal Church; J. F. Dean, Dixon, Tenn., and W. A. Lewis, D. D., secretary and treasurer of the Connectional Preachers' Aid Association of the A. M. E. Church, with headquarters in Nashville.
Dr. Lewis stated that he was putting forth an effort to establish a fund for the aged ministers who had given their life in the service. He wanted that there should be a place where they could go for food and shelter when unable to preach.
Report of Pastors.
The report of pastors who were not present at the opening of the conference claimed attention. Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, pastor or St. Paul A. M. E. Church, reported that the church had sent to the conference $310 for the dollar money fund, which was over last year, and the church had collected for its running expenses $5,000 since the last session of the conference. He was given an ovation.
The Committee on First Year's Studies reported that Rev. Jesse J. Parker, who was a student in Turner College, had passed the required examination and passed him to the second year
Class Failed.
The entire class of the third year failed and will have to remain in the class another year. Bishop Parks said that the man who wanted to keep up in the ministry would have to study.
The questions in the discipline were asked and answered. Question 13, "Who have died this year?"
At this point the death of Bishops Abram Grant and James A Handy was announced, also Rev. T. W. Halgler, presiding elder of the Nashville District, and Watson Johns, local deacon of St. Paul.
Mt. Pleasant Selected.
"Where shall our next conference be held?" To this question, Mt. Pleasant was selected.
The Bishop announced that it had been the custom of the church since its organization to hold a General Conference, and to such a conference delegates were elected. "We have now reached that place in our conference. You will not have any objection to electing. How many delegates is this conference entitled to, Brother Secretary?" "Six." came the prompt response from Secretary Jones. Revs. J. C. Caldwell and G. W. Porter were electer tellers; J. G. Robinson and D. A. Graham, clerks.
The following delegates were elected on the first ballot: Revs. A. P. Gray, W. Sampson Brooks, S. L. Howard, W. B. Denny and G. L. Jackson. This narrowed the race down to Revs. H. L. P. Jones and G. R. Norman. The first ballot showed Rev. Jones to be in the lead and all of the strong aspirants withdrew and gave him the field. He was elected by a big vote.
Dinner was served by St. Paul Church members. Every member of the conference and many others were dined sumptuously in the large Sun-day-school dining-room.
Friday morning, October 26th, the conference opened with devotion. After a few preliminaries the report of St. John A. M. E. Church was called for. Rev. Howard had a splendid report. Over $6,000 had been raised for all purposes and the church (Continued on Page 4.)

LARGE DELEGATION REPRESENTING MANY PARTS OF COUNTRY REV. C. B. DUSENBERRY MODERATOR — IMPORTANT SUBJECTS DISCUSSED—THE HOME TRAINING OF THE CHILD FOR CHURCH — NEGRO COMPARED TO PIPPIN BY ONE SPEAKER—A MIGHTY FACTOR IN HIS COUNRY.
Special to the Globe:
The East Tennessee Synod of the Presbyterian Church convened here at Mt. Tabor Church Oct. 19th, and continued until Sunday night, 22nd. There was quite a large delegation, with many sections of the country represented. At 7:30 p. m. Thursday the Synod was called to order by the moderator, Rev. C. B. Dusenberry, of Asheville, N. C., who preached the introductory sermon. Rev. D. S. Collier, pastor of the local church, read the report of the committee on arrangements. At 11:30 a. m. Friday there was a sermon by Rev. H. L. Peterson, A. M., of Memphis, Tenn. At 7:30 p. m. Rev. J. W. Malloy (white) of the First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, Tenn., by invitation or Rev. Collier made an address on the "Importance of Home Training of the Child for the Church." His remarks along this line were very appropriate
Mr. Craig, who has traveled around the world in the interest of the church, made a very interesting talk on the progress that is being made in the foreign fields by the missionaries, both intellectually and spiritually. At 9 p. m. Rev. G. T. Dillard, D. D. superintendent of the Sunday-school work for the cofeded people in the South, spoke very ably and interestingly on the "Condition of the Negro, His Position, His Progress, His Opportunities and How to Better These Conditions." In part, Dr. Dillard said that "the Negro was a great factor, for he is the only race that can stand up and look 'he white man in the face';" in his comparison he describe the Negro as pippin by the side of a crabapple tree," and says, "because of the sourness of the crabapple no one ever trouples them; but the pippin being sweet, everybody wants them and it is with the Negro today because of his importance as a mighty factor in this country everybody is after him, and with all of the figuring and figuring after him, regardless of what the result may be, the Negro still continues to progress." With reference to the estimation of the Negro's standing, he said, "the white man too often judges the Negro at a long distance, and generally passed judgment on him before any evidence was reached." Dr. Dillard is quite a speaker, and the freedom with which he uses his words and the manner of his delivery are evidence that he is quite a profound thinker.
BISHOP C. S. SMITH AS A PRES
SUDING OFFICER.
Of the forty-five delegates who presided over the various sessions of the Fourth Ecumenical Conference, Toronto, Canada, October 4-11, 1911, Bishop C. S. Smith, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, alone received special mention by the press. The Christian Guardian, of Toronto, Canada, which was the official organ of the Conference, made this observation:
"Bishop C. S. Smith made a good chairman. With the urbanity of his race, he gave some liberty where other presiding officers rigidly forbade. Perhaps that lent itself to a freedom of discussion which is one of the best features of the conference."
The Christian Advocate, Nashville, Tenn., the official organ of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, gave expression as follows:
"One of the best presiding officers of the conference is a colored man—Bishop Smith, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. He is ready and appears equal to all demands."
MUTUALISM IN THE ASCENDENCY.
On September 12, 13, 1911, the Mutual Aid Association of the U. S. A. held its seventh annual session at Hampshire, Tenn. At 9 a. m. Tuesday nearly every delegate was in his seat awaiting the sound of the gavel of the M. W. G. Com. The M. W. G. Com., T. T. Ransom, called the house to order and after devotional exercises proceeded to the regular routine of business. It was clearly indicated by the large delegation and the interest manifested that it would be

the grandest session of its history and Mutualism in Tennessee was a fixture. The reports of the delegates, both numerically and financially, showed conclusively that the organization is steadily on the ascendency. Throughout the entire state comes the joyful tidings of harmony and prosperity. The great principles of the order in rescuing the perishing and lifting up the fallen is weilding a telling influence in building up the association and bids fair to become the leading institution in the state. Notwithstanding the death rate had more than threbled any previous year the establishment of new lodges and the economical management of the affairs of the association placed it in better condition than ever. To indicate the approval and services of the M. W. G. Com. and Grand Secretary and Treasurer, the rules were suspended and they were elected by acclamation without opposition for a term of two years. In fact the entire official staff was re-elected for the next two years are persons of experienced ability and under whose supervision the success of the association is assured.

The Negro occupies a rather unique place in the history, of the American nation, because of his past and present standing. For a number of years he was considered incapable of self-government. He was considered nothing but a beast of burden. There were times when he groaned beneath the burden of affliction. Manhood was crushed and his eyes were closed to the true sense of his condition, but as time rolled on the handwriting on the wall was vividly displayed

and he henceforth took hold, and many and varied achievements have been accomplished. He has successfully run farms; operated saw and grist mills; has made successful mechanics; has taken the lead in masonry; some of the structures erected by him stand equal to any in the world; churches, schools and colleges speak for themselves. In the commercial world he is not at sea. Publishing and manufacturing merchandising and manufacturing merchandising and banking houses are being manipulated by him. Associations, lodges and orders stand chief among his works. He is the Alpha of Mutualism, the greatest association in the United States originated by Negroes, and having no borrowed emblems or

signs, consequently no fear of being sued for a name. It is ours. It is the Product of Negro Brain, the builder of the Negro race, and the handiwork of the Great Jehovah.
Mutualism in Tennessee has a peculiar and interesting history. It was born in a sister state originally, with no thought of ever leaving its borders. Based as it was on the strong ties of Equality, Mutuality, Fellowship and Liberality it knew no bounds. It spread with wonderful rapidity. The founders of it advocated its great principles and so fervently presented and perpetuated its views that it leased out of the mother state and found a hearty reception in 1903 in old Tennessee. Being planted in Tennessee soil, guided by the Omnipotent hand, its success is assured. Adversities in its incipiency temporarily impeded its success. Finally the cloud of despondency was dispelled.

The impediment was detected. The defaulters were discovered and overshadowed and banished forever. The light is on. We cannot exist without it. It was ordered by our Creator in the creation of the world. It is the life of all vegetation. A dark room is unfit for human habitation, no organization can thrive without it. It is the light that wields a telling influence over mankind. There is a beautiful custom among the natives of Madura. At the evening-tide the mother trims and polishes her lamp and sets it on the table in the center of the room. As the members of the family gather in, each one pays homage to the light before proceeding with the social joys of the evening. This custom is of course connected with some of their superstitious beliefs, but a lesson may be borne to us from it. How are we to obtain the light? Every member should have a consti-

tution and by-laws of this association and comprehend it. Officers should have a thorough comprehension of the rituals to diffuse this light of mutualism in his or her lodge. Many of the troubles and disputes which arise for the want of understanding would thus be avoided. We are informed that some of the presiding officers of some of the subordinate lodges have said to their members only the officers are allowed a constitution. No stream can ever rise higher than its source. By diffusing this light you raise the whole lodge on a plain primarily intended by the founders of this association. We have had printed an order and receipt book for subordinate

lodges which, if properly used, will greatly aid the secretary and treasurer in keeping a check on its funds and promoting the success of the lodge. Some of the lodges put them in practice as soon as they were issued. On assuming the Commandership of this grand order I wrote an advisory and friendly epistle to all the lodges under my supervision, soliciting also an opportunity to visit their lodge, that I might acquaint myself with the members of this jurisdiction and augment the membership. Every lodge visited has largely increased its membership. The closer the fulcrum the greater the amount of weight that may be moved. So it is with this association. The law should give the commander the right to visit subordinate lodges as his discretion. Our headquarters are located adjacent to the hall in which eight different lodges meet, which gives it a prestige invaluable to the success of the organization. My association with the officers of our order has indeed been most pleasant. Vying to build up an institution second to none.

Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 18, 1911.—More honor has just come to Prof. Jos. A. Booker, A. M., of this city, president of the Arkansas Baptist College. He was chosen by the Mayor of Little Rock as a member of a commission of "Social Uplift" which commission will look or inquire into condition of the city of Little Rock with a view to correcting evils, taking in bad children and looking toward the reform of the so called bad places. Prof. Booker is the only Negro on the commission which is said to consist of nine members. His record of twenty-five years as president of the college here where he is still laboring is supposed to have been instrumental in causing his selection.

OAKLAND NOTES.
The people in and around this place are very busy these days. The farmers are busy gathering in their crops. One passing along the highways looking at the white fields of cotton, is very much reminded of the snow-capped mountains. There is an immense amount of cotton and corn raised in this vicinity. We note a wonderful progress among our people financially. Much building is being carried on. It seems that enough mechanics cannot be found to do the work. Mr. Ed. Williams is having a new residence built which will soon be completed. It is being constructed by Mr. Emery McCulley. It will be very beautiful when complete. The public school has closed until January 1st. Mrs Flippin has gone to her country home to spend her vocation. Mrs Ethel B. Howell closed her school last Friday evening with a grand concert. All who were present report having a good time. It is said to have been on a high-class order. Mr. and Mrs. Mose Person were down from Warren visiting Sunday, and also Dr. Isaac Person.

Church Business.
Dr. John Hurst, Financial Secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in speaking to the members of the Tennessee A. M. E. Conference last Wednesday morning, took higher ground in discussing the business affairs of his church. He showed that there is a deal of slackness and indifference on the part of some of the leaders in his Connection, and pointed out some of the dangers that are likely to overtake them unless these defects are remedied. Dr. Hurst is a thorough student of church matters. He is a close observer and his judgment goes a long way with the men of his Connection. He never talks for show, neither does he speak boastfully but always with that earnestness that compels men to think. What Dr. Hurst has discovered in the African Methodist Connection is true with other denominations. There is not enough business tact applied to the management of churches.
It has been the opinion of the people in days past that the minister should do everything about the church—preach, lift the collection, make all announcements, settle all disputes and shake hands with everybody on meeting day. The officers will stand around and see the pastor succeed or fail; with such a strain the man who attempts to do so much work, they wait until he fails, if failure is his doom, then they criticise and abuse him. The church is an institution that appeals to the people in a peculiar way; as they gave to the erection of temples and cities in the early centuries, so will they now give to the erection and maintenance of churches. if the leaders will only conduct the business on a basis that the people can understand. Negroes delight in beautiful church edifices. They desire that their preachers be educated, manly men. They will push the interest of the church as far into their commercial and civil affairs as they possibly can, but they want to know what they are doing, which is perfectly natural. The old custom of pastors looking after everything and reporting to the people what he has done is past. It is also true that pastors cannot be dictatorial to their people now, for this age of progress has opened the eyes of the people and they understand some things, too. The church is a business institution and should be so conducted. It must be conducted so or else the people will gradually drift away from it and its influence will not be what it should in the community.
The Opportune Time.
The time to strike the iron is when it is hot. This is an old saying, but is as true today as it was when first uttered, and is well applied in many instances. Our city has very recently held an election to select officials whose duty it will be to conduct the affairs of the city for two years. Before the election it was a common
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1911.
thing to hear Negroes complain against the administration. One thing they complained of was that the policemen allowed Negro women to flock around saloons but would at the same time arrest women of other races if they were caught hanging around such places. There was a strong feeling on that point and it is one of the things that cut the Negroes of Nashville to the quick. They discuss it daily now, but right there they stop.
Another complaint is that in distributing the playgrounds in the city all of them have been located in white communities, and while there is no law against black people going into them, they do not go because they do not feel welcome. Again they desire to avoid any friction between the races, consequently they stay away. They argue that they are entitled to these privileges and that it is a duty of the Council to see that equitable distribution is made in such matters.
Another complaint that is heard from time to time is the unequal distribution of corporation work. The black laboring men feel that they should have a proportionate part of such jobs and not be entirely ignored in the matter of earning bread.
Now it is time the Negroes of Nashville should get together with representatives from every ward in the city and discuss these problems. They should appoint a committee, not too large to be cumbersome, but a small committee of able men who have the welfare of all the people at heart. This committee should be sent to the city authorities with the grievances of the colored people, setting out everything and giving the officials the privilege to turn them down. With the good feeling that exists in this city between the white and black people, we do not believe that such requests would be refused. We believe it is the desire of the white people that the colored people have everything that is due them. They know that by treating people fair, you make them contented and that a contented man stays where he is. But the time to do these things is now and not two years hence. Get in on the ground floor, ask the mayor and councilmen for what you want, and we believe they will do everything in their power to give the colored people just what they deserve.
Madame Tartt's recent auditorium concert is highly spoken of by the people, which is the best possible evidence of its quality.
Ben Davis is to be elected Grand Master of Odd Fellows in 1912 if Hoke Smith has to vote for him. Georgia teams certainly pull together.
The world series are over; the next spasm—football—and then get ready for Santa Claus, and the end is not yet.
IN MEMORY
On Tuesday morning, Oct. 17, at 11:30 o'clock the angel of death crept into he home of Mr. and Mrs. Giles Thornton and claimed the faithful and beloved daughter, Lydia, wife of Jas. H. Sumner. Mrs. Lydia Sumner had been in ill health several months, and the angel of death had hovered at her bedside for some time, until at last she gave up the brave and noble fight she had so long and patiently made, and her soul was wafted on the gentle morning breeze to the great beyond, where the cares and pains or life are no more, and where the darkness never comes. Although this faithful and patient woman had suffered for months, it was scarcely noticeable to those who came in contact with her, so hard did she strive to control her feelings and not worry her family with her troubles. She had become reconciled to the fact that she could not last much longer, and so like those that have placed their faith in His hands, submitted without resistance, and stepped out of this world into the beautiful home which has been prepared for her and others of like character. She was a devous Christian, having been a member of the church a number of years. She was a true type of Christianity and in her last moments gave words of cheer and comfort to the sorrowing family and friends as they knelt at her bedside watching the beautiful life transferred from a world of sorrow and tears to the golden streets of Paradise.
Mrs. Sumner will be keenly missed.
not only by her family, but by all who knew her; and while her being taken off was a hard blow to all, they can rest assured that life among the anglers will be much brighter and happier than the one lived among the trials and tribulations of this world. To the broken-hearted members of the family that were left behind, I would say that though she's gone and there is a vacant place in the household that can never be filled, her good deeds will ever live in the minds of her friends, and we should all find consolation in the fact that what we consider a great loss to us and this world is a gain to heaven and the angels.

MADAM HACKLEY RETIRES
MADAM HACKLEY RETIRES.
Chicago, Ill., October 25. (Special.)
Madam E. Azelia Hackley was greeted by a packed house of music lovers on last Thursday night at Orchestra Hall, Michigan avenue, and Jackson Boulevard. The occasion was the retiring recital of this noted singer, and proved to be the greatest event in the history of the Chicago people. It was a success from every angle, notably in point of art, attendance and appreciation.
It was largely through the efforts of Mr. Cary B. Lewis, editor of the Illinois Chronicle, who was manager and press agent, that the Orchestra Hall was packed from pit to dome. Visitors were here from several states and the society people were out in great style, leaders occupying the twenty-three boxes.
It is safe to state that it was the grandest and most brilliant musical and social affair that has ever taken place in this city. It was the first time the colored people had Orchestra Hall and they turned out in taxi's and autos, the ladies wearing beautiful Paris creations and the men in full dress.
Madam Hackley rendered her program in a most pleasing manner. In every number she showed the highest training, most wonderful range of voice and gave a series of vocal demonstrations that carried the house by storm. Her songs were sung with all artistry of the finished singer. The rectal was highly entertaining and was of great value to all who heard her. The Tribune and Record-Herald critics spoke of her work in a most complimentary manner. Telegrams were read from all parts of the country by Mr. Cary B. Lewis, and she received many handsome bouquets. Madam Hackley is being urged to return next spring and train a big chorus for a public musical.
GODWIN NOTES

DRAMA AT MEHARRY.
As had been previously announced the beautiful four-act drama entitled "A Woman's Honor," was rendered at Meharry Auditorium on Friday evening, the 20th inst., by the East Nashville Dramatic Club, under the management of Mrs. Townsend, the wife of Dr. A. M. Townsend, of this city. The attendance was a large and representative one. The several acts were performed in the most brilliant style and called forth loud and hearty cheers from the audience. The Walden University Orchestra, under the directorship of Miss Mamie Braden, was in attendance and rendered some very rare selections which contributed very largely to the grandeur of the entertainment. On the whole the entertainment was a success.
The matinee which was to have been held on Saturday, the 21st inst., was unavoidably postponed until Wednesday, the 25th. The proceeds will go to the benefit of the George W. Hubbard Hospital. Mr. L. H. Thompson, of Ocala, Fla., and a member of the senior dental class, has gone home on account of the death of his mother. Dr. Gordon M. Chambers, of Barbados, B. W. I., and a graduate of the medical class of '09, has returned to his Alma Mater for the purpose of pursuing a course in dentistry. An Acme "Sphygmomanometer," an instrument for determining the blood-pressure in the arteries, was purchased last week, and will be used in experimental physiology and for diagnosis. The Bacteriological Laboratory has been removed to a room on the upper floor of the Mehhary Audieiorium, and five new bacteriological michoscopes (Bausch and Lomb's) have been purchased. Dr. G. W. P. Johnson, of the class of 1911, is assisting Dr. J. H. Holman in his bacteriological work. The Mehhary Y. M. C. A. held its weekly meeting at the Auditorium Sunday,

A short business session was held, following which the regular program for the day was obs rived. A paper on "The Evils or Food Adulteration," written by Mrs. J. C.

THE YOUNG MEN'S LITERARY CLUB.
To destine the culmination of the club as to its pre-eminence, culture and sociality would indeed be quite an arduous task, for one might rate it tyrannical or distinctly a failure, while on the other hand pompous splendor might be added, of which all be due to spirit manifested.
The real truth of the whole affair is that the stuff of which the Y. M. L. C. is wrought is stern and that which every father admires in his son and mothers crave their own to be like enough for the true morality. The literary function needs no comment, for all who have visited are well informed, and the subjects thus handled are of the day, such as the young Negro in politics as discussed by Mr. Leach. The next meeting will be with Mansfield Douglass, 1805 1-2 State street.

AN EMBALMING COLLEGE FOR NASHVILLE NOW A CERTAINTY.
The Faculty and Advisory Board consists of physicians and members of the faculty of the Meharry Medical College and leading undertakers of the state. Sometimes ago there appeared in the columns of this paper an article concerning the establishment of an embalming college for the colored men of the South. This institution was to be operated as a branch of the Cincinnati College of

Embalming. This thing is now a certainty, as suitable quarters have been secured at 447 Fourth avenue, North, adjoining the apartments of Taylor & Co., Undertakers and Embalmers. Everything has been put in readiness for the opening of the first session, which will take place on Wednesday, November 1st. This college will be operated on the same basis as the Cincinnati College of Embalming, giving the same courses as the parent institution.
The Nashville branch will be in charge of Prof. J. L. Leach, who will be assisted by an able faculty, consisting of physicians and members of the Meharry faculty as follows: J.

SUNSHINE HOME.
The Christian Workers' Conference met at the home on Monday morning, October 23, and studied the conditions of success in doing personal work. It is hoped that many will avail themselves of this chance to get a practical knowledge of the Word.
On Monday evening at eight o'clock the Christian Workers' Foreign Missionary Society held its regular meeting. Those present voted to change the time of meeting from the fourth to the first Monday of each month. Miss L. E. Bushnell gave an interesting sketch of the life of Wm. Carey, the pioneer missionary to India.
Mrs. M. H. Flowers has left the city for a two weeks visit and rest with her brother in Little Rock, Ark.
THE BROTHERHOOD OF MAN.
In an address delivered by Bishop C. S. Smith at the Fourth Ecumenical Methodist Conference, Toronto, Canada. October 6, 1911, is found in the following:
I wish to speak of the spirit that should possess the propagandist of the Christian religion as he goes out among the non-Christian races. What is the Christ spirit? What is the Christ idea of the brotherhood of man, his idea as it relates to the commonwealth of mankind? If the proprogandist of the Christian religion goes out among the non-Christian races asserting the spirit of race superiority, he finds himself at once handicapped. And from my observation in foreign fields I am frank to confess, though I do it regretfully, that, at least in many instances, there is too much exaltation of race superiority and too little exaltation of the life and spirit and purpose of the Lord Jesus Christ. Point to a single utterance of the Master wherein He boasted of His racial lineage, wherein he emphasized or laid stress upon the mere incident of race superiority. I say "the mere incident" because there are four things for which no man is responsible—of whom he was born, when he was born, where he was born, and how he was born. I know that there is no lack of stressing the idea of the fatherhood of God and the sonship of Christ, but there is a woeful lacking of stressing the brotherhood of man—not as white men, not as black men, not as yellow men, not as red men, not as brown men, but as men.
Now, I postulate that if the brotherhood of man is not one of the cardinal and foundamental teachings of the New Testament, then the whole scheme of the Christian religion is but a cunningly devised fable, the

Dhonau, president of the Cincinnati College of Embalming, will also deliver a series of courses and, Prof. J. H. Clarke, the first teacher of embalming and the founder of the Cincinnati institution, will also be on the program. It is the intention of the Cincinnati institution to enlarge the Nashville college as soon as the enrollment justifies the change, but at present

every feature of the course will be well taken care of. Prof. J. L. Leach,
the vice-president and executive officer, obtained one of the highest general averages in his work at Cincinnati, and holds Tennessee and West Virginia licenses after a magnificent showing before the examining Boards of those states.
Prof. Chas. O. Dhonau, president of the Cincinnati College of Embalming, will be in Nashville to deliver lectures to the opening class. After
agony of Calvary, the echo of a deceiving dream, and the reputed vicious death of Christ a mere figment of the imagination. Jesus said, "If I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me;" "All ye are brethren;" "Love one another, even as I have loved you;" "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature;" and unless the brotherhood of man is brought into realization here the apocalyptic vision never can become a reality—the vision wherein John saw a number that no man could number, gathered together out of every tribe and tongue under heaven; and when the inquiry was made, "Who are these?" the answer was not white men, not black men, not yellow men, not red men, not brown men. No! but "these are they who have come up through great tribulation and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." This address was well received by the conference and elicited much praise and favorable comment.
NOTES ON RACIAL PROGRESS AS REPORTED BY THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE.
The appointment of Mr. John W. Wright to the position of city treasurer of Topeka, Kansas, is highly gratifying to those who know him. There is not a better qualified man for the position in Shawnee County, having served twenty years as deputy county treasurer. Furthermore, Mr. Wright is congenial and approachable and enjoys the distinction of having as many good and substantial friends of both races as any other man in the state of Kansas.
Perhaps there is no other man contributing more toward racial development and opportunity along industrial lines than Mr. R. S. Holloway, the general contractor and builder, 583 Harrison street, Kansas City Mo. Mr. Holloway has been a contractor and a very successful one for many years. As monument to his ability and skill, he can point to the handsome new Grisham flats at 1724 Highland avenue, the splendid flats he built for one Mr. Frank Johnson, at Tenth and Woodland; the Wheeler flats, Sixth and Bales Avenue, an elegant residence on 3825 Main and many other smaller buildings elsewhere in the city.
Mr. Holloway emptys a force of about twenty men, consisting of bricklayers, stone masons, carpenters, hod-carriers and common laborers, making his weekly pay roll average $350.
Wichita, Kansas, has a large colored population, who are seemingly in a well-to-do condition. Many are en-
November 1st, Nashville can boast of the first embalming college for Negroes in the United States. It seems only fitting that the first of all embalming colleges should provide something of this kind for the people of the South and be the first to do it. The following men will all lend their aid so that the institution will be a credit to the city. The Nashville College of Embalming, branch of the Cincinnati College of Embalming,

gaged in the different kinds of business pursuits and a very large number own their own homes, which in many instances are quite beautiful.
Some of the prosperous members of the race here are Mr. Thomas Glover, Seventh and Market streets, who is estimated to be worth over $8,000. Besides his home place, he owns three other valuable residences and a $1,500 automobile. His son is head bookkeeper in the National Bank; the Rev. J. H. Vanburen, who not only has some valuable city property, but also owns two or three farms worth about $30,000; Mr. L. France, who is said to own some of the finest farm land in Sedgewick County, about 600 acres valued at $150 per acre. Then there is Mr. W H. Jones, whose holdings in city realty amount to at least $12,000 while Capt. N. Clark Smith owns a business block and residence combined, located corner Main and Eleventh streets, nearly opposite the county Courthouse, easily worth over $10,000.
Captain Smith is the efficient bandmaster of the celebrated Tuskegee Institute Band.

Morris Brown College the First Victim of the Tigers at Atlanta.
Special to the lobe.
The Baptist Tigers lined up against Morris Brown College for the first game of the season and administered to her a defeat to the tune of 50 to 0
Morris Brown is to be encouraged from the fact that this was her first attempt at the game. The Tigers lost many of her old players last year, but the spirit that was left in the rest of the men was in evidence Saturday when the mighty backs were hurled through their opponents' line at will.
Coaches Bullock, of Dartmouth fame, and Archer, of Colgate, stood in the side line and saw their boys work. The spectacular plays that had been taught them by hard training. The game was characterized by fumbling, as the opening games usually are. Morris Brown was game to the last and contended for every inch gained. This was the Tigers' first victim of the season and a watchword to the others that they may expect the same.
STEVENSON (ALA) NOTES
The revival that has been going on at the Morning Star M. B. Church closed last Sunday with two converts. Mr. Abron Josephjs has built a nice little house for his family. He is a reader of the Globe. The rally at the C. P. Church Sunday was quite a success. Mr. Wm. Young and Mr. Willie Tally took a pleasant drive to Cedar Grove last Sunday. One of the brick masons that are engaged in work in our town met with a very serious accident Tuesday last. Miss Mattie H. Scruggs, our school teacher, is a reader of the Globe. Miss Scruggs says that the Nashville Globe is a fine paper and every Negro should have it in their home; she says also the race will never be what it should and ought to be unless we put our forces together and build up our own enterprises.
PARIS NOTES
Mr. Wm. Waddy is out again after a few days' illness. The revival is in progress at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church, conducted by Rev. Bernette. Master Cornell Atkins has returned from Memphis after a two week's visit. The Old Maids' Association was rendered at Quinn Chapel A. M. E. Church last Tuesday night. It was very amusing. Mr. Henry Loving left for Memphis this week. Mrs. Mattie Brown and son left for East St. Louis last Sunday. Mrs. Minnell L. Sparks, who has been sick for many days, is reported up again, also Mrs. Lona Mai Golden, who has been sick, is reported much better.

Church Sunday, the 29th inst. All the city pastors with congregations have been cordially invited. On Monday night, the 30th, the "Tom Thumb Wedding" at Quinn Chapel promises to be of much interest.

ROGER WILLIAMS NOTES.
Conveniences for day students have improved no little. There will be transportation to and from the car line mornings and afternoons for the benefit of the young people who are disposed to attend school out at the school this year. There shall be no more dread of the mud and slush so many have experienced during the very unpleasant wintry months along the White's Creek pike. Parents who have had such a horror to the exposure along the pike can forcefully say, "never more."
The Executive Board of the State Baptist Convention convened in the city last week and all the members visited Roger Williams last Friday, the 20th, and having looked through the plant, spoke encouragingly before the student body. Some said that the progress had been a little short of miraculous. All were pleasantly surprised at the permanency of the school; each went away enthused and encouraged to do greater things for the school. The Religious and Literary societies of the school are in full blast now so that every phase of student life for good is in operation.
Prof. A. M. Jackson still has charge of athletics, and is faithfully welding into form the material he has on band as prospectives for places on the football team. Prospects are brighter this year than that of last year, with McConico back in the game things should go well with the boys at Roger Williams. The team will play Meharry and Fisk and probably Walden and then take a trip out of the city to take on at least one heavy team before the close of the season. Six members of last year's team have returned: Allen, G. Andrews, Joe Jeffries, F. Jeffries, Pullen, Mitchell and McConico. The new aspirants are: Alsup, Jones, Dozier, Nofleet, Sirse, Cantrell, Ellis and Powell and many others who do not show to be first-class material.
WINCHESTER NOTES

Norris, who has been visiting friends and relatives in Atlanta, Ga., and Chattanooga, Tenn., is now visiting Mrs. Charlie Prothro, of this city. Miss Norris will leave in a few days for Nashville. Miss Alberta Cunningham will leave in a few days to attend Fisk University at Nashville Mr. Oscar Childress delivered an ad dress at the Mt. Zion Church Wednes day night.
