NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VII. CITY LEAGUE ORGANIZED Vol. VII. CITIZENS JOIN HANDS IN SOCIAL UPLIFT. Branch of National League. The Watchword of the Organization is "Get Together for Mutual Uplift"—Representatives of Many Organizations Join in. After several meetings of representatives of the teachers association, the doctors' academy, the ministers' alliances and the women's clubs, together with a number of other citizens interested, the Nashville League on Conditions Among Negroes completed its organization and laid out a plan of social work for Nashville at its meeting last Tuesday afternoon at St. John A. M. E. Church. The meaning of this new development for social uplift may be clearly drawn from the objects stated in its constitution as follows: (1) To protect and befriend Negroes who are strangers in Nashville; (2) to connect them with homes and homelife, with church and churchlife, and with wholesome recreation; (3) to promote facilities of employment and to encourage vocational training where needed; (4) to promote probationary and preventive care for men, women and children; (5) to improve housing, sanitary and neighborhood conditions; (6) to seek provision for any other needs of Negroes in Nashville; (7) to bring about union and co-operation among existing agencies for social betterment in Nashville; (8) to co-operate in every way with the National League On Urban Conditions Among Negroes in studying and working to improve social and shrdl eo eta ?h improve economic and social conditions among Negroes in Nashville and other cities, and in securing and training of Negro social workers. The central idea of the organization is co-operation for betterment of conditions among our people. It is expressed in the slogan "Get together for mutual uplift." But those who have taken part in starting the organization believe in putting their words into deeds. Already the Baptist, the A. M. E. and M. E. ministers 'alliances, the Rock City Medical Academy, the Principals' Association, the Phyllis Wheatley Club and the Arts and Crafts Association have signified their intention to co-operate by selecting delegate members for the Nashville League. Besides delegate members any person interested who wishes to do something to carry out the objects of the league may join the movement by application to the Membership Committee, of which committee Prof. C. T. Randalls is Chairman. The following officers and members of an executive committee have been elected for the first year: Prof. Geo. E. Haynes, President; Mrs. A. B. Carter, 1st Vice-President; Mr. J. E. Hurt, 2nd Vice-President; Prof. T. B. Hardman, Secretary; Dr. A. M. Townsend, Treasurer; Miss Fannie M. Banks, Assistant Treasurer. Other members of the Executive Committee are: Dr. C. H Clark, Rev. R. T. Weatherby, Mrs. G. L. Jackson, Miss E. J. Cockrill, Prof. J. B. Watson and Rev. S. L. Howard. At all of the meetings those attending as well as the officers have been one in the sentiment that what Nashville needs is for her colored people to unite for work, not talk, to save their own. Already committees for definite pieces of work have begun taking steps for three things immediately: to join in the effort to secure a Carnegie Library; to call together the men teachers in Sunday-schools and day schools as well as Sunday-school superintendents, pastors, physicians and others interested in our boys and to lay before them plans to help save our boys and to try to remedy the conditions among so many school children who are reported by the principals as coming to school hungry. The plans of the organization include further: 1. improvement of housing conditions in colored neighborhoods. 2. Development of playgrounds and recreation facilities. 3. Provisions for occupational training is night schools. The local organization has grown out of a national movement known as the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, with headquarters in New York City and branches in Philadelphia, Baltimore, St. Louis, and several other cities. The startling of the work in Nashville is in line with steps that have already been taken for similar organizations in Memphis, Atlanta, Ga, and Louisville, Ky. The object of the National Urban League is, first, to promote and do constructive and preventive social work for improving the social and economic conditions among Negroes in urban centers; second, to bring about co-ordination and co-operation among existing agencies in urban NASHVILLE GLOBE. SUPPLEMENTAL REGISTRATION FEBRUARY 19, 20 and 21. ```markdown ``` Telephone the office about any irregularities. FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE NASHVILLE CHORAL SOCIETY. The lecture room of the First Baptist Church was filled Wednesday and Thursday evening for the last two rehearsals of the Nashville Choral Society, before its concert in the auditorium on Tuesday. February 6th. As usual there was a good attendance of visitors and the work of the chorus was the best yet. The consuming interest and enthusiasm displayed by the members of the organization speak volumes for its success and the musical intelligence displayed is simply fine. The work of the conductor is far from laborious, as he has only to give direction regarding the special points which any chorus would overlook. Matters of tune, time, reading and modulations are all looked after by the chorus itself, while the conductor is free to give time to certain interpretations and technicalities regarding unances and the like. The accompaniment work is superbly executed by Mrs. J. D. Ballentyne and Miss H. E. Caruthers. This work requires two planes, both on account of the size of the chorus and the nature of the musical score. Two solos in connection with the chorus will be sung by Mr. A. G. Price, who will render "The Bedouin Love Song," words by Bayard Taylor, music by Pusuit, and Mr. J. W. Work, who will sing "Hear You Calling Me," by Marshall. The tickets are being sold rapidly and a big attendance is expected. NEGRO WANTS THE SEAT. Washington, Feb. 1.—A. P. Prilleau, a South Carolina Negro, appeared today before one of the house election committees to contest the seat of George S. Legare, democrat. The contestant contends that afdavids of voters show he was elected. NEGRO A CANDIDATE. Paducah, Ky., Feb. 1.—(Special.)—W. H. McRidley, of Cadiz, the well-known educator, is a candidate for delegate-at-large from Kentucky to the republican national convention. As Negroes figure prominently in Kentucky republicanism, local leaders say McRidley has a good chance of being elected. GOING TO PANAMA Dr. R. B. Boyd, of the National Baptist Publishing Board and Secretary of the Home Mission Board, is a very busy man these days. He only recently returned from Toronto, Canada, where he went to attend an important publishers' conference, and now, it is learned, he is soon to leave for the city of New Orleans, La., and from there he will go to Panama. The trip to the Canal Zone is for the purpose of looking after the missionary work there. The Baptist Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, under the able management of its Secretary, Dr. Boyd, has accomplished more in the Panama Zone in less than ten years than all the white missionary societies combined. Several churches have been built under the direction of Dr. Boyd, and a large membership has been built up by the missionary on the field. centers and to develop other agencies where necessary; and third, to secure and train Negro social workers. The officers of the National League are Professor E. R. A. Seligman, of Columbia University, Chairman; Dr. William L. Bilkley, Mrs. Wm H. Baldwin, Jr., and Jacob W. Mack, Vice-Chairman; E. E. Pratt, Secretary; A. T. Frissel, Treasurer, and L. Hollingsworth Wood, Assistant Treasurer. There are three field secretaries who give their entire time to the work, headed by Mr. Eugene K. Jones. Prof. George E. Haynes, of Nashville, is director of the National work. He has gone to New York this week to attend the meeting of the Executive Board. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY FEBRUARY 2, 1912 NEGRO PYTHIANS WILL NOT SURRENDER LAWYER MAYFIELD WANTS NE GROES TO VOTE IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. Honorable D. U. Burke. It has been my intention for some time to call to your attention one on the qualifications required for one to vote in the Democratic Primary. The Democratic Primary idea had its inception, when my people voted for one denominating himself. Republican, irrespective to the man, or his qualifications with that dogged tenacity, which made such a course urgent and necessary. Those days have long since passed and the Democratic party, when honest and upright men are placed for political preferment has nothing to fear from my people. It has been mine to carefully note the trend of affairs and the change of sentiment as manifested by us toward the Democratic Party. As a result of my investigation, I am safe in saying that two-thirds of the Negroes of Davidson County are Democrats, and will be ardent supporters of the Democratic nominees. The only slogan that is used against the party, is, it is said, "Negroes are not allowed to vote in their Primaries." These people can answer any requirements that are just and right, but they cannot erase the fact that they are Negroes any more than the Irishman, that he is Irish, or the Jew, that he is a Jew. I think the requirement should be that one should have supported the last Democratic Presidential nominee, or such other qualifications as are applied to other citizens. I think, if that slogan is removed, we shall have the way paved for the election of a Democratic Governor and shall make sure the election of Woodrow Wilson, or some other good Democrat to the Presidency. I see no reason why the holdings as espoused by the Democratic party as contra-distinguished from those of the Republican party should not prevail. The republican party is and has been the instrument of predatory wealth and the fooling of my people by that party has ceased. It be hooves us at this the beginning of a year of much political activity to remove seeming impediments, that we may enter the campaign with no him drances, which we ourselves can remove, that we may direct our entire strength and energy to the annihilation of the common enemy, the Republican party. I think the outlook forshadows a Democratic victory, from the Presidency down. Give this matter your consideration and the success of the party is assured. Yours for the good of the party, R. L. MAYFIELD. H. E. SHELTON NOT DEAD. H. E. SHELTON NOT DEAD. Mr. H. E. Shelton, the popular dairyman who was reported to have been killed last Tuesday morning by a N. C. & St. L. Railway train was still alive Thursday evening. The physicians have hope now of his recovery. He was pretty badly shaken and at the time it seemed impossible for him to survive, but with his strong vitality it now looks more favorable for the unfortunate man. Mr Shelton is well-known in this city, where he has a large run of customers whom he supplies with dairy products the year round. DECISION OF STATE SUPREME COURT A SURPRIZE. Appeal to be Taken to United States Supreme Court. Order in Prosperous Condition—Endowment Boards Met Here Saturday—Good Reports Made—Many Families Receive Relief. The Supreme Court of Tennessee at its session Wednesday refused to grant the Writ of certiorari prayed for by the colored Pythians. The latter are given six months to disband by the decree. The decree allows this time for the order to wind up its affairs, dispose of its regalia, etc. It will be remembered that the white Knights instituted suit against the colored fraternity some two years ago, which has been contested from the lowest to the highest court of the state. Able counsel was employed. Much money has been spent. During the litigation the Negro order grew and flourished. The leaders are men of good repute, men of probity and high standing, who had hoped for the best. They have built one of the most powerful Negro fraternities extant, and were doing an untold good to the widows and orphans of deceased members. The organization has property in nearly every city and crossroad in the state. The valuation of which is nearly a half million dollars. Each subordinate lodge has a reserve fund. Then, too, the Endowment and Grand Lodge have ample finances. The rank and file are of the very best Negro citizenship of the state. The farmer, lawyer, doctor, in fine, men from all respectable walks of Life. Mr. C. O. Booth, Grand Attorney of the order, is here preparing the papers in the case in order that an appeal may be made to the United States Supreme Court. It will be remembered that the Negro Pythians of Georgia have pending a similar case in that nigh tribunal Georgia's courts, like Tennessee's, decided adversely to the Negroes, but the Negro Pythians of that state kept up legal contest. It cannot be said when a decision will be had, but in the meantime the bodies will continue to meet, get new members and do good to all men. The Endowment Boards of the Knights of Pythias and Order of Calanthe were in session here Saturday. Much business was transacted. Both boards report the largest endowment collected in the history of the order. On account of not having received a much-looked-for communication from Secretary A. Thos. Hill we cannot give in detail the figures of the Pythians. Those present at the Calanthe meeting were Dr. R. F. Boyd, W. C.; Medames Mary Agnes Turner, Secretary Endowment, and Clemnie White, Treasurer. Those present at the k. of P. Endowment Board were Dr. J. P. Crawford, G. C.; Nashville; W. S. Thompson, President, Nashville; A. Thos. Hill, Secretary, Pulaski; T. G. Robinson, Treasurer, Dyersburg; Dr. J. W. Whitfield, Murfreesboro; U. W. Richardson, Chattanooga; Wayman W. Robinson, Memphis; C. O. Booth, Grand Attorney, Memphis; H. A. Cameron, Grand Auditor. The Board was tendered a splendid dinner at the Noon Lunch Cafe. The business was excellent. Hereunder follow the names and courts of deceased Calantheans: Mary Angle, Queen Elizabeth, Dayton. Millie Noe, Iron Clad, Morristown. Hannah Brown, Arrion, Jackson. Lizzie Johnston, Star of the West, Brownsville. Salle Bell, Q. Elmo, Chattanooga. Mary Torrence, Zion City, Russville. Addle Thompson, Hellotrope, Nashville. Anna Tarpley, Pillow, Macon.

The Tennessee delegates elected to represent the African Methodist Conference of this State at the General Conference that will be held in Kansas City, Mo, in May, will hold a meeting in this city Wednesday, February 7th. The sessions will be held at Bethel A. M. E. Church on Tenth avenue, South. Every Conference in the state will be represented by a full quota of delegates, which will bring together twenty odd ministers and laymen, and the visitors and friends, and those interested in some plan to present to the General Conference, will swell the number to fifty or more. It could not be learned from any of the delegates residing in this city just what specific action the delegates will take, but from the general trend of the conversation of all who were seen it seems safe to predict that the Tennessee delegation will go up solid for Dr. J. A. Jones for editor of the Southern Christian Recorder. Dr. Jones is a favorite son of Tennessee and the ministry and laity throughout the state are pulling hard for his election. Not only is this true of the members of his own church, but of all denominations. Another matter on which it is believed there will be a solid front is the Bryant proposition. It is not believed that the complaint of a few that a layman should not hold such a position will be given any credence whatever, the opinion seems to prevail that the man best qualified should have the position. The record made by Mr. Bryant speaks for itself, and with his practical knowledge of the printing business he will be able to do for his church more than any other Negro publisher has done. What is true of the sentiment toward the election of Dr. Jones and the endorsement of Mr. Bryant's proposition, seems also to be true in the case of Drs. Lewis, Caldwell and Roman. The meeting promises to be interesting in many ways, as this General Conference will have many questions of great importance to grapple with. NEGRO FIGHTS SIX MEN, ONE BOUND EACH. Philadelphia, Feb. 1.—Tommy Coleman was put through a severe test at the Broadway Club tonight, meeting six men one round each. Although Kid Tracy, of Shenandoah, succeeded in earning an even break during the three-minute session, the Negro won victories over the other five. They were: See-Saw Kelly, the Kensington middleweight; Beru Whirlwind, Old Steve Crosby, the former star lightweight boxer; Jack Fink, the fighting marine, and Barney Ford. GOLDEN WEDDING Chattanooga, Tenn., Jan. 26.—Last night Mr. Edward Gorman and Mrs. Sarah Gorman, for many years residents of this city, celebrated their fiftieth anniversary as man and wife. The affair was an elaborate one in every detail; and excited much interest because of its singularity in the history of wedding anniversaries in the city of Chattanooga. The altar of the First Baptist Church, where the wedding celebration was held, was decorated with ferns, palms and colors of gold. When the hour for the ceremony to begin arrived, the auditorium of the spacious building was taxed for available standing room with eager friends to witness the occasion. After the most excellent solo rendered by Mrs. C. Cowan, the organist played in a most pleasing manner, Mendelsohn's Wedding March. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Rice, who will soon celebrate their golden wedding, acted maid of honor and best man; and to the soft pealing tones of the big pipe organ, they stopped with the accuracy of the pendulum of a clock, as they marched to the altar. Next came dr. and Mrs. W. H. D. Valentine; Dr. Valentine bearing the ring, and Mrs. Valentine acting as flower girl. Following came the bride walking in a path of flowers, supported on the arm of Rev. J. E. Smith, into the Congregational Church. She was presented to the groom, Mr. Ed Gorman, who had entered from the vestry accompanied by his brother, Mr. G. Gorman, Rev. C. A. Bell, D. D. pastor, performed the ceremonies which were very impressive. He highly commended the couple for the many years lived in holy wedlock. He the close of the services, Mrs. Wilson continued the music, playing a march by which all repaired to the Sunday-school department where a large committee had arranged a grand reception for the guests, and ice cream and cake was served to about four hundred. Many valuable presents were given to the groom and bride, together with $200.00 in gold, as an expression of the wishes of their many friends, for their long and useful lives. The bride wore white Marquette over satin with gold trimmings. The mid of honor wore white silk, while the flower girl wore pink silk. Amanda Person, Stevens, Warren, Cora Warr, J. C. Price, Canadaville, Florence Guy, Morning View, Ellendale. Dovie Nevell, Ruffin, Collierville. Sarah Cannon, Calloway, Knoxville, Lethia Thomas, Nathaniel, Lebanon.

TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No. 5 MOUND BAYOU BANK MEETING No.5 STOCKHOLDERS WELL PLEASED. Able to Finance City Affairs. $100,000 Oil Mill—Ninety-five per cent of Stock Represented—Capital Stock Increased to $50,000 —Election of Officers. Mound Bayou, Miss., January 29—General satisfaction prevails over the showing made at the stockholders' meeting of the Bank of Mound Bayou, held here this week. The very fact that this is the only bank in this, one of the oldest distinctive Negro towns in the United States, together with the personnel of the stockholders, makes this meeting each year, one of much importance. The Bank has been able to financier most of the enterprises, started in the city since its organization. It can be truthfully stated, that the promoters and directors of the bank were instrumental, in the main, in launching the $100,000 Oil Mill Company, which received such a tremendous ovation at the important meeting held in this city a few weeks ago. Many things of importance were considered at the stockholders meeting. For the first time in the history of the institution, 95 per cent of the subscribed stock was represented at the meeting. The two magnificent reports made, one by Mr. John W. Francis, the President, and Mr. Charles Banks, the Cashier, were enthusiastically received by the stockholders. The Cashier of the Bank showed that its resources were $180,000. The directors had already declared a dividend of 10 per cent. The most important feature of the meeting was the vote to amend the charter, so that the capital stock could be increased to $50,000. This matter was unanimously passed and the Board of Directors were authorized to make the capital stock $50,000 or $100,000 to suit the demands made upon the institution. The following is the list of Directors who were elected: B. H. Creswell, John W. Francis, Charles Banks, R. M. McCarty, S. M. Morgan, T. S. Morris, T. S. Swanger, I. T. Montgomery, H. A. Goodgold, H. M. Williams, S. H. Parrish, J. S. Huddleson, Emmit J. Scott, of Tuskegee, Ala.; H. A. Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn; Fred D. Patterson, of Greenfield, Ohio. The Directors met directly after the adjournment of the stockholders meeting and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, John W. Francis; First Vice-President, D. H. Creswell; Second Vice-President, A. A. Cosey; Cashier, Charles Banks; Assistant Cashier, James B. Garrett. ARBOR DAY AT BROAD VIEW. Special to the Globe Pulaski, Tenn., Jan. 26.—This was a gala day for the patrons and friends of the District School taught by Professors Bridgeforth and Thompson—the occasion being Arbor Day. Some eighty-five trees of different species were planted. The exercises were he'd in open air on the campus of the new building and consisted of appropriate ceremonies and music composed expressly for the occasion by Prof. Bridgeforth, Prof. Thompson, assistant principal, acting master of ceremonies. The exercises were witnessed by quite a concourse of people. Prominent among those in attendance were Professors W.-T. Wynn, President of Martin Female College, Pulaski; A. M. Harris, Instructor of Public Speaking, Vanderbilt University, Nashville; F. M. Massey, President of the Boys' Training School, Pulaski; and Prof. B. H. Gaultney, County Superintendent. At the conclusion of the campus exercises, the vast throng then repaired to the assembly hall, where the audience was most ably addressed by the above gentlemen, indorsing the work done by the teachers and patrons in bringing about such glorious results for the betterment of the school and educational interests of the county. The addresses were happily received and roundly applauded, and were itterspersed with selections from Prof. F. J. Work's Folk Songs. A series of resolutions extending to the visitors the gratitude of the auditors and faculty were introduced by Prof. H. H. Thompson at the conclusion of his response, and the same was unanimously adopted. The plan of the work of the improvement (organization connected with the school, was explained by Prof. Bridgeforth, to the delight of the visitors. At night the school rendered an interesting program to a packed house, after which refreshments were dispensed, which netted a goodly sum to carry forward the work of beautifying the building and campus. This school now has an enrollment of one hundred and sixty-one pupils and an average daily attendance of one hundred and fifty. --- 2 Collection Plates for Church or Sunday School These collection plates are made of thoroughly seasoned selected, best grade stock.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1912. Dedicated to Our Faithful Agents Everywhere. "Lives of great men remind us, Honest men don't stand a chance; The more we work, there gets behind us Bigger patches on our pants. "On our pants, once new and glossy, Now are stripes of different hue, All because subscribers linger, And won't pay up what is due. "Then let us be up and doing, Send your mite, however small; Or, when the cold of winter strikes us, We shall have no pants at all." The Pythian Case. The Supreme Court of Tennessee decided Saturday, January 27th, that the Negroes have no right to call themselves Knights of Pythias, and that the white people have a monopoly on this mythological story. Tennessee is not the first Southern State to so decide; but as mean as the white people of Mississippi are said to be, a lower court of that state did not so decide. Strange things happen in our dear southland. No man can tell what the people of this or that state will do, and no man is able to find the reason why they do certain things. Tennessee's case cannot be a political move, for our Supreme Court Judges were elected by the people as free and untrammeled. Every man who identified himself with the straight democratic party in the last judicial election was defeated on the ground that an attempt had been made to coerce the judges and to tie them to the political machine the people set their feet down on such an attempt; they would not vote for men who had identified them selves with a faction that was charged with such an outrage. The case was not decided from a standpoint of law; because the lower court has never gone into the merits of the case and consequently, it did not go up to the Supreme Court based upon law. The fact remains, however, that the decision has been rendered by the highest tribunal of this state, and it is now left for the United States Supreme Court to decide. For the Negroes of Tennessee will not give up. They are as courageous as the Negroes in other states and will fight this case to the end. We have never approved of a practice of Negroes grabbing up every lodge started by white people; we have never seen the necessity for doing so; for it is the easiest thing in the world to establish a lodge and find a name for it, and reduced to its final analysis the principle is the same after all. The name, regalia, pass-word, grips and signs, mean little unless the members of that lodge are working for the good of humanity. But since the Negroes of Tennessee and the United States did decide to organize a lodge and call this lodge the Knights of Pythias what right has anyone to object? We did not believe that the Supreme Court of Tennessee would decide against the Negro citizens of this state in this case, but very much to our surprise they have done so. But we have no lost hope yet. We will not believe that the contention of the white Pythians is right until the Supreme Court of the United States so decides If a suggestion could be made by the Globe we would advise that more Negroes join the Pythian order now than ever before, for the case is not yet settled, statements to the contrary notwithstanding. It will not be wise to pay any attention to news paper articles but take advice from the officers of the Grand Lodge. It may be depended upon that they will give the right instruction. In this crisis there is need for united effort and the Negroes of Tennessee who are not Pythians should join now and take part in making the fight. Keep your coal bin full. Ground hogs don't know everything. Last week in the Criminal Court of Davidson County one Pat Malloy was sentenced to be hanged on the 26th of April, 1912. The charge against this man is the murder of one Herman Henning. At the time of the killing, the facts were shrouded in mystery. The officers were unable to get any clue as to who the guilty party or parties were. It did not look like a deed of a Negro. Mr. Henning was known to have some money. It was supposed that he kept this money in his house, and it was the opinion of all at that time that the murderer was after the money supposed to be hidden in a chest somewhere in the Henning store. For months and months no clue to the murder was found, and only recently Pat Malloy was arrested in East St. Louis, Ill., as a suspect. He was brought to Nashville and put on trial. He was represented by able counsel appointed by the State. Evidence was made from day to day in a way that was strange, and yet not uncommon. It was circumstantial evidence, and the witnesses were introduced as the trial progressed. The manner in which it was done made it very easy to convict the man. The people of Nashville do not yet believe that Malloy is the right party; and if he were connected with the crime at all, it is the opinion of many who have kept up with the case that others are implicated. It appears, however, that Malloy and his friends have waited very late to do anything in his behalf. The case must now be taken to the Supreme Court, which puts the condemned man to a great disadvantage, and more so since the lawyer who has the case in hand now was not associated with it while it was in the Criminal Court. Malloy is an admitted gambler who frequented the worst dive in the city, namely, Sol Cohen's on Fourth avenue, South, and Malloy makes no pretenes at being other than a bad character. He has served several minor sentences in the workhouse and on the County Farm. These facts naturally take from him the sympathy of those who would otherwise feel kindly disposed toward him. But, be that as it may, he is a human being and his life is sweet to him, and it does not speak well for the strong if they crush the life out of this man because of his bad reputation and because nobody seems to care whether he is dead or alive. The killing of the merchant Henning was a most brutal murder, but if Malloy is put to death for the crime, and the case is dropped there, which it will be, the people will not feel satisfied that justice has been done. It would be a charitable acu if someone would take an interest in this affair and see to it that Pat Malloy is given justice. It should be ascertained whether or not he is a sane man, for, be it remembered, he has not acted in a way to create the impression that his mind is in a very good condition; and if he is weak-minded and has been used as a tool in the hands of others, the truth ought to be known. And for humanity's sake this man, though a confessed gambler, ought to be given a fair chance to prove whether he is guilty or innocent. Senator Lorimer's sins are like an endless chain. The deeper the probing goes the greater the scandal. Miss Johnson's Recommendations Miss Johnson's Recommendations. Miss Mary Hannah Johnson, city librarian, in making her annual report, took note of the situation as it is in Nashville, and after discussing at length the good which has been accomplished by the establishment and maintenance of one library in our city, she takes up the matter of extending the work and proves beyond a doubt that Nashville needs more libraries and emphasizes the need of a library for the Negroes. Miss Johnson has the hearty approval of every Negro in Nashville for this utterance, and we feel sure that her opinion is concurred in by all of the fair-minded people of this city. The idea of a Negro library is not new. It will be remembered that Mayor Howse in his last campaign spoke of this institution, and steps have been taken in that direction, but nevertheless, the endorsement of the plan by Miss Johnson, who is engaged in the work, and who is in a position to know better than anyone else the good that libraries do, is worth more than that of anyone else at this particular time. That the Negroes should have a library needs no discussion, for, as was said by Miss Johnson, the library helps the people educationally, morally and socially, and with the number of colleges we have here and our splendid public school system the need for a library for Negroes becomes imperative. There is no opposition to this move, and we feel sure that in the near future the Negroes of Nashville can boast of a first-class library. NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 2. 1912. In another column will be found an article giving the dates when the supplemental registration will be held. We urge upon all Negroes in Davidson County, who have not registered and who have moved since the last election, to take advantage of this opportunity to qualify themselves to exercise the right of franchise in the next election. Every man of voting age ought to do two things: First, he should pay his poll taxes himself as soon as they are due, and then he should register and qualify himself to exercise the right guaranteed by a poll tax receipt. move will be made by this faction or that faction, or what step will be taken by this individual or that individual to carry a point in an election. The man who is aspiring to political honors does not always give due consideration to the welfare of all the people; it is the majority in many cases they seek to please. The refusal of a few voters in a community to quality can make a majority who may favor some scheme detrimental to a class. Negroes in Tennessee have been exercising a degree of independence for several years. They have ceased voting for a man because he is a republican, but because they believe him to be a man of courage and with a conviction to do right. The result of this has been that in this state there is a desire on the part of all political parties to treat the Negro with more fairness and to accord him justice. There is "no sympathy in politics. It is a matter of business. Men are not in the game for the fun of it. The party that is out always charges the party that is in with many things of which it is not guilty. And the party that is in invariably refers to the party that is out as "pie-hunters." Well, most men like some kind of pie, and to get this pie they are not always very particular as to whether someone suffers or not, but often lose sight of everything but the pie and make a straight dive for it. The independence of the Negro voters of Tennessee has caused all the aspirants for office to be a little careful when they are making these lunges for the pie counter. That is, they stop and count up the cost before making the move. The way to continue this attitude effectively is for Negroes to qualify as voters, and always vote if for no other purpose than to keep in the habit of it. If the case is one where a party holds a primary, nominates a ticket, and no other party puts out an opposition ticket, vote for the ticket that is out. Show to the world that you are interested to the extent that you vote whether or not the candidate needs your vote. The number of qualified voters in Davidson County is not nearly as large as it should be, and we are urging upon every man to qualify; for who can tell what will come up, or what man will decide to run for office? And the attitude of that man toward this or that class of citizens? If the Negroes are not qualified to cast their ballots they can have no say as to who shall hold the offices. President Taft is calling in the Negroes who are holding jobs given at his hands to counsel with them, it is said, as to the attitude of the black brethren in the coming fight for the presidential nomination. Well, there are two things they have not forgotten, namely, that Kansas speech in 1908 and the Brownsville case Roosevelt passed down to his administration, and how he (Taft) settled it. The Majestic Theatre is completed except a few finishing touches. It is a magnificent building, and with the up-to-date merchants occupying the store room present a wide-awake business appearance. Mr. Johnson is to be highly commended for the effort he is making to prepare a decent place of amusement for his people. --- The Legislature of South Carolina has shown unmistakably that it thinks for itself, and that it is looking out for the best interest of the State, but Governor Blease thinks the same thing when he makes his recommendation. Now let's settle it at the polls in November. The above from the Allen Student is very timely. Negroes everywhere should learn the lesson here taught. The Supreme Court of Louisiana has handed down a decision in the New Orleans street railway case that will go a long way in changing the attitude of the whites towards the blacks. It means that the law must be administered as if to human beings in all cases. To the Editor of the Globe: In the issue of the Democrat of the 31st of January, 1912, an article headed thus: "Shooting Up the Town." St. BERNARD and JELLIGO Main Office, Arcade. Main Station East Station Phone M. 43 Phone M. 42 Phone M. 42 and ascribing to one, Albert Watkins, and Joe Hurt disorderly conduct and carrying weapons. The only reason that I notice this is because a large number of my friends have seemed to be disturbed about it. I am asking your most excellent paper, to that the Albert Watkins who is connected with "The Manhattan" is not the party involved, and that I know nothing about that "Albert Watkins" mentioned in said article. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. A Few LIARS in BIRMINGHAM. There are a few very dangerous liars in and around Birmingham, in business, in society, and quite a multiplicity of them in secret organizations. There are some gossipers who have the practice down to a science, so thoroughly until they can tell a lie with more force and reasonable connection than an honest man or woman can tell the truth. Who are they? is the question that naturally arises in the thoughtful man's mind, and how can the community rid itself of them? They are the idle, hopeless, ill-willed, malicious characters who care not for themselves, man or God. They are not found among the lowly in circumstances; they are some of the people who are supposed to be something out of the ordinary. There were a few things came to cur notice in the past few weeks that were sufficient for comment with an open effort to have an end put to it. How to stop it: First—Pay no attention; cut them off your roll of associates; discount their position on matters of importance; don't disturb a good man by handling the sayings of these malicious scoundrels, and they will simply die for the want of attention. No man can truly respect a liar; he may sometimes use the dirty cur as a means to an end, but never to a successful degree, because the same dirty pup will return and rend him. In our opinion, a liar to any degree is human existence in the very cheapest form. Let the idle devils go to work. Put them on their own merit, and then the end will come.—Birmingham Reporter. PRESENT A. SOLID FRONT. PRESENT A SOLID FRONT. A house divided against itself must surely fall, therefore whenever and wherever we find a man of the race engaged in an honest contest which involves our political and civil rights, it is our imperative duty to sink personal differences, ignore that man's individuality, if need be, and to faithfully stand with closed ranks by the principles for which he contends until the victory is won. With unconquered prejudice and subtle malignity the wealth and brains of the late slaveholding class, their sympathizers and henchmen, have combined and are persistently exerting their all-powerful influence, in and out of Congress, through every avenue of the States' Government, through every remission of life, to retard the Negro's progress and perpetuate his poverty and degradation. Every scheme, device, fraud, violence and cool, calculating murder are being perpetrated to destroy the legitimate fruits of freedom; to deny, resist, nullify and cheat him of his constitutionally guaranteed rights and privileges as an American citizen. It is, therefore, absolutely necessary that we lay aside our internal dissentions and minor differences and present a solid front—Colorado Statesman. OUR SCHOOLS. The opposition to the passage of our school bill by the Democratic leader, Mr. Johnson, of Kentucky, must be of great consolation to the Negro Democrats of the country, and the Democratic league in this city. The colored and white children are in need of more school buildings. Will the members of the Negro Democratic League explain the attitude of the Democratic party in the House of Representatives towards the passage of a bill that will give white and colored children more school buildings? This must be encouraging legislation to Negro Democracy.—Washington Bee. We have organized the Negro Regiment. Shall it be made a part of the National Guard of the State? Col. William Wilson, president of the National Guard Association, says not. In his annual address to the association, at Albany, Wednesday of last week, Col. Wilson said: "I believe that we ought no longer, either individually or as a body, dodge this question, but squarely face the issue and place ourselves on record against that which will add only a burden of expense on the state and would fail to increase the efficiency of the organization of which we are all so proud."

JACK JOHNSON WORLD'S CHAMPION. Jack Johnson is having the time of his life trying to get a chance to fight somebody. He has been barred our of Australia, England, California and New York and every state except Nevada. Youngstown, Mo., came to the front last week and refused to let him give boxing exhibition. It really seems that if the entire white race throughout the civilized world has combined to prevent Johnson's enjoyment of his title. All of this, not so much because civilization is against pugilism, but because it is against giving the black man a chance to enjoy his well-won laurels in that respect. Mr. Johnson is to be commended for his effort to get his rights, but the Herald would like to commend to him while doing so, the example of unity which the white race displays in his case as in so many others. If our race would copy the example of the white race to the extent of sticking to his own, posterity would yet rise up and honor his name. Jack Johnson has plenty of money already, and if he would but use some of his money and prestige in establishing gymnastics for the benefit of Negro youths, and see that young Negro men have a chance to develop their physical powers, he would assist the race in building on its own good foundation and develop a lot of physical giants. Young Negro men are shut out of the gymnasiums which the white race has established for the development of its youth. Nobody knows this better than Jack Johnson himself, Spurred by these memories he is now in position to not only help his race develop their physical powers, but also to even up the score with the white race which has tried in every way to degrade and humiliate him and to tear from his brow the well-earned laurel wreath of championship. Every other champion we have had, used his money to establish saloons and thus contributed more and more to the degradation of their race and themselves. Mr. Johnson could do no better service for his day and generation than to establish his own gymnasium and make its specific purpose to give young Negro men a chance to develop their physical powers. In his own gymnasium he could arrange boxing bouts and give exhibitions with no one to say him nay. To a high-class gymnasium of his own all true lovers of the sport would flock, forgetting his color to these he could dictate his own terms, be his own master and at the same time be a real benefactor to the race of which he is a member.—The (Chicago) Fellowship Herald.

FRONT VIEW OF NEW STYLE NO. 2. The above cut is an exact photograph front view of our new style church seat, No. 2. The body of this church seat is about the same as our famous 401 pew body, has all of the comfort of the finest pew and highly finished in golden oak. These seats can be made in any length, but cannot be made in circular seating. FRONT VIEW OF NEW STYLE NO. 3. The above shows an exact photograph of our famous new style church pew No. 3. The body of this pew is made up the same as the pew in the church. It cannot be made in circular seating. The pew ends are 2-ply and built up from small strips the same as our No. 9 and No. 11 pew ends, except they have not the curving and ornamental lines of the pew end that we have upon the market. This pew is beautifully finished in golden oak, gloss finished and is an ornament to any church. It can be placed in the church, but it is the desire of the church. The back is high and comfortable. To this back can be placed if desired, book and envelope racks, the same as the finest pew. Prices are given from estimates made up from the length A FRONT VIEW OF A NEW STYLE NO. 4 CHURCH PEW BUILT UP OF OUR NO. 9 PEW END AND 402 BODY. The above cut shows a pew any length from 4 to 8 feet, made up from our No. 3 pew end and 402 pew body because in a pew of that length there is no need for seat supports or center divisions. These pews can be made in any length from 4 to 12 feet, but if the pew is over 12 feet long, it necessitates putting in a centre division, and all pews 8 feet or longer should have centre seat supports under the same. 2000 PAWNED OVERCOATS.

Miss Nellie Davies, of 1516 Fourteenth avenue, North, a student of Fisk University, was buried Monday, January 29th. The funeral services were held at the Lea Avenue Christian Church. Miss Davis would have finished next year. Funeral was preached by Prest. Revon Taylor, the pastor. President Gates and three of the teachers were present CLARKSVILLE NOTES. Death has invaded our midst of late, taking away two prominent citizens. Mr. Robert Wardell, after nearly a year of suffering passed away January 23rd. His funeral at St. Peter A. M. E. Church was under the auspices of Mt. Vernon Godge L. G. O. O. F., and was largely attended. On Wednesday, the 24th, ult., the funeral of Mr. George Chruch was held at St. John's Baptist Church, Revs. Metcalfe and Carney preaching, and many other ministers participating in the service. Mr. Chruch was the oldest deacon in St. John's Church and was for many years superintendent of the Sunday-school. Mr. Cube Steal and his wife, Mary Eliza Steal, of South Clarksville, have both been seriously ill of late, but at this writing seem on the way to recovery. Mr. Burt Ramey, father of Miss Lizzie Ramey, principal of our city school, is confined to his bed with a complication of diseases. A twenty-six pound fibrous tumor was recently removed from the body of Moses Hooser of Lovejoy, Ill., by Dr. Burt at his infirmary here. The patient has returned home and is doing well. This is but one of the many operations performed at the infirmary late', all with remarkable success. Madan Maladene Tartt closed a two weeks effort in our city on the 25th, uld, by giving a grand chorus concert at Wesley Chapel. The People's Choral Union, which she has formed, numbers fifty voices, and has been left in charge of Rev. Seymour pastor of M. Olive Baptist Church. The concert was a great success, having a crowded house. A great time is expected at St. Peter tomorrow, when two boards of stewardesses are to be consecrated. Madam Greenlaw will sing a solo, and the pastor will preach a special sermon on "A Notable Service." The stewardesses will all be in uniform, and the pastor will appear in robe for the first time. Leave orders for the Globe at 522 Franklin street, and you will be sure to get a paper. We did not have enough last week. DR. W. A. JONES, OF DENVER. There passed through the city Sunday Dr. W. A. Jones, of Denver, Colo. Dr. Jones spent the day here the guest of Rev. R. H. Boyd, of the National Baptist Publishing House. He was on his way to visit his old home in Alabama, as he had not been back for ten years. He is a graduate of Talladega College, at Talladega, Ala., and from the Denver Homeopathic College at Denver, Colorado. Dr. Jones conversed very interestingly with a Gobe representative about the condition of the Negroes in Denver. He declared that the opportunities in Colorado were about on par with in the other Western states, and that the whole problem is about dissolved into the survival of the fittest, who he said with an approximate estimate would place the Negro population of Denver at between five and six thousand, many of whom are prosecuting business and personal careers. Aside from being a practicing physician, Dr. Jones is president of the Colored American Loan & Realty Company, a concern that is doing splendid business in the West. He said there were six Negro physicians and two practicing regularly in Denver, and that the Meharry Medical College was responsible for the training of five of those, and they are Drs. I. H. P. Westbrooks, T. Ernest McClaim, J. A. Harper, E. Faulkner and C. D. DeFrantz. "The same amount of enthusiasm injected into the school life of our professional men is characterized in their practice," declared Dr. Jones, in discussing the success obtained in the West. DEATH OF DR. GEORGE SALES. Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 26—impressive were the two large services held today over the romans of the late Rev. George Sales, Dr. L, former President of the Atlanta Baptist College, and for the past seven years Superintendent of Education of the Baptist Home Mission Society of New York. The first service was held in Sales' Hall on the campus of the Atlanta Baptist College. Spelman Seminary joined Atlanta Baptist College and the four denominational schools of the city turned out in forces to pay their respect to the distinguished dead. Dr. Sales died in New York, Monday, January 22nd from an operation. The remains reached here Wednesday, over the Seaboard Air Line Railroad. At the college the funeral services were conducted by Rev. John E. White, D. D., who was master of ceremony. The funeral was preached by Rev. E. R. Carter, D. D., pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church. Among the speakers were Dr. C. T. Walker, Augusta, Ga., John F. Purser, B. D., Dr. Dray, of the Southern Baptist Home Mission Board and C. W. Daniels. The president and faculty of all the schools in Atlanta and in close proximity were present as was the President of Roger Williams University located at Nashville, Tennessee, Prof. J. W. Johnson, and the Financial Agent, Rev. Wm. Haynes. The deceased had made an enviable record since his sojourn in the South. He came South a number of years ago from Canada, since then, step by step he has made an indelible impression upon both races and served to unite the interest of every educational institution with that of religious work. Dr. Sales was also a member of the Liberia Commission. He distinguished himself with every member of the Commission by the splendid report made upon their return from Liberia to President Taft, and to the United States Congress. The last service held over the deceased was at the West End Baptist Church on Lee street, pastored by Rev. John E. White, D. D. Striking among the grief stricken friends who bears the loss is Prof. John E. Hope, who succeeded Dr. Sales as President of the Atlanta Baptist College who took part in both services. GLOBE AT LIBRARY OF CONGRESS. Tennessee, who are visiting the National capital at Washington, D.C., or those who reside in the District of Columbia, who from time to time desire o see and look over the columns o f the paper are respectfully instructed by the manager of the Gube that the paper in the Reading Room of the Congressional Library. It will also found in the Periodical Reading Room. Those who do not see it will please make inquiry for it. This notice is give a because several inquiries, have been made and complaint registered that the paper was not found, but a setter from the librarian states that it is in the Reading Room, and will be shown to those who desire to read or hear fro mhome. TO SPEND WEEK IN NASHVILLE. A confirmation of the rumor that Mr. Carey B. Lewis would visit Nashville at an early date was obtained this week from two authentic sources. One came from the Illinois Chronicle and one from a personal friend of Mr. Lewis. A part of his time will be spent at Meharry Medical College, where the celebrated surgeon, Dan Williams, will be conducting his annual clinics. He will be in the city Sunday and a part of the following week. It is stated that Mr. Lewis will be doing special educational work for some of the big newspapers and magazines. LIBRARY FOR NEGROS MISS JOHNSON RECOMMENDS ONE IN ANNUAL REPORT—SHOULD BE BRANCHES IN FOUR SECTIONS OF CITY ONE FOR NEGROES. The tenth annual report of the Librarian of the Carnegie Library of Nashville, Miss Mary Hannah Johnson, has been completed, showing the operations of the library for the year 1911. Miss Johnson prefaces her full and comprehensive statistical report with a statement of the library work and suggestions for its further advancement. Among other things Miss Johnson says: "It is the great democratic institution, 'University of the People,' and is the greatest resource for the 'education of the adult,' which is the crying need of today. "I hope that the library can progress each year along these lines until appropriations for this educational work will not have to be asked for, but will be gladly given." BRANCH LIBRARIES—ONE FOR NEIGHBORS. "To make the free public library of Nashville all it should be, and reach all of the people, both grown as well as children, and the Negroes also, there must be branches in the four sections of the city, and a special library for the Negroes. I would suggest that reading rooms be opened in North, South, East and West Nashville. These rooms could be equipped with daily newspapers, magazines and good wholesome books, and could be warm, bright, comfortable places for men, women and children to spend a few pleasant and profitable hours daily. There are few things that would give more real pleasure to the working man at all times of the year, winter and summer, and profit, too, than the, community reading rooms for all the people in the neighborhood. If there is not money from Mr. Carnegie to build branches then rent some store rooms, or houses which could be transformed into comfortable and pleasant reading rooms. I believe it possible to secure from Mr. Carnegie to build branches particularly a Negro one, and this should be done as soon as possible if the Mayor and City Council will appropriate funds to maintain them." TWENTY YEARS EACH—PRINCE AND WILL EWING CONVICTED OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER. After being out for three hours, the jury in the Prince and Will Ewing murder case returned a verdict Saturday afternoon of murder in the second degree against Will Ewing, the son, and a verdict of accessory, before the fact in the second degree against Prince Ewing, the father. Both defendants were sentenced to twenty years in the penitentiary under the verdict returned. The attorneys for the defense immediately moved for a new trial and this motion will come up for argument this week some time, probably Saturday. At the time of the tragedy, which resulted in the killing of Rufus Wilson, the defendant, Prince Ewing, and the deceased were owners of adjoining farms in the Hermitage district, and were well-to-do farmers. It appeared from the proof in the case that that two men had for three years preceding the killing, been engaged in hot litigation over a plot of ground bordering the two farms, and about a week previous to the tragedy, the suit had terminated in favor of Wilson, the plot of ground in question being awarded to him. The theory of the State was that Prince Ewing, angered at his defeat, had conspired with his son Will to take the life of the deceased, that the son following out the design of his father, came upon Rufus Wilson while he and his son and another Negro were re-establishing the boundary line of the farms as designated by chancery court, and shot him down in his tracks. The theory of the defense was self-defense. As both the families involved were well-known among the colored population of the county, the courthouse was packed with Negroes during the whole course of the trial. PARDON GRANTED WASHINGTON COUNTY WOMAN. Governor Hooper has granted a pardon to Mrs. Lilly Hill, who shot a white man and was convicted in Washington County last October, sentenced to eleven months and twenty-nine days in jail and fined $50 The Governor relieved her of her fine and the remainder of her jail sentence. The proof tends to show that the woman was married and bore a good character. The man she shot had accosted her several times, and being repulsed, he threw a handful of sand in her face. A fight ensued, and in the affray the woman shot her assailant. The pardon was recommended by the prosecuting attorney and the best people in the county sanction the action of the Governor, and censure the court for ever allowing the woman to be put in jail. LADIES' PROGRESSIVE CLUB LADIES PROGRESSIVE CLUB. The Ladies' Progressive Club met with Mrs. J. W. Work on Wednesday, January 24th. There was a large attendance of members, with only 3 absentees occurring at roll call. The business hour was expended in formulating plans preparatory to taking up a "Note" on the Phyllis Wheatley Home, after which an excellent program was rendered as follows: paper, Mrs. Robert Wingfield; solo, Mrs. Josie Henderson; reading "Opportunity" (Dunbar), Mrs. W. H. McGavock; eulogies on the life of the late Mrs. Rca Neal, Mesdames Roman, McGavock, Work and Ellington. A tempting two-course menu was served by the hostess. The club then adjourned to meet with Mrs. Josie E. Henderson, on Scovel street, February 14, 1912. Mr. Samuel L. Morton has returned to the city after a visit to Murfreesboro to parents. You are cordially invited to attend the Seventh Annual Session of the Sunday-School Congress which will meet at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., June 5th to 10th, 1912. This gathering of Sunday-school workers will represent every department of religious life of the people who make up the great National Baptist Convention. As the Sunday-School Congress has grown in age, it has also grown in importance. No one now doubts the fact, or denies the assertion that it is the most widely known, most influential and largest gathering of young people in the country engaged in the development of the Sundayschool life and work of the race. There are two essential things which will make the Seventh Annual Session of the Congress a jubilee in point of interest. First it is gathering together in one mammoth meeting under one banner, the old and the young of our religious Sunday-schools and life. Second, the meeting is to be held in Tuskegee Institute, by special invitation of Dr. Booker T. Washington. Every attendant will have access to the magnificent buildings and grounds of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, the largest school in the world operated by Negroes.

Poultry Department HAVE YOU PLANTED YOUR GARDEN? ‘This is the season for the amateur to start his study of garden manuals preparatory to the cultivation of the home garden. Before the frost is out of the ground the gardea plot may be raked and cleared of all rubbish and put in readiness for sp'dins or plowing as soon as the weather will permit. Perhaps. the land needs lime or other fertilizzer. If it is heavy and soggy and requires lime, this fact can be ascertained very easily. Buy a small piece of blue litmus paper at a drug store. Take a sample of your soll and mix it with water until it is the consistency of porridge. Dip the litmus paper into this, and let it stand for an hour. Then rinse the paper in clear water, and, if it is {ntensely redder xd, the ground ts in need of lime to neutralize the acid in it. Nearly all the prominent seed firms will supply garden manuals up- ‘on request, which afford some of the information an amateur gardener needs concerning soil preparation and the selection of plants, but it is generally wise to supplement this in: formation with advice from experi. enced gardeners in every neighbor hood. Men and women who have hendied a particular sort of soil un der the same climatic conditions for many years have an intimate know edge of local conditions which must necessarily be unknown to writers who treat gardening in a scientific rather than a practical way.

CROSSING BREEDS DOESN'T IM. PROVE THEM. ‘Today while admiring a very fine pair of White Opingtons which is on display in the show window of a drug store, corner Church street and Seventh avenue, many pedestrians stopped to gaze upon and admire the high quality cnd beauty of the birds, Complimentary remarks were upon the lips of ail, especially so of one gentleman who expressed the desire to be able to purchase the handsome cock bird in order that he might im prove his stock. On being asked what breed or strain of stock he kept —sald he didn't think they were of any one breed—ais wife had bought ‘a few from a peddler and some from her grocer, but was sure two of them were Plymouth Rocks. People everywhere over the South and perhaps el iwhere, have some strange ideas concerning crossing the different breeds of poultry to tm prove them. You. can hear persons who perhaps have been raising chick ens for a long time say: “I have a better breed of Tow's in my. yard than any I know of,” and then they will go into the details and tell you | Dow they crossed one breed with an- other and then deseribe the product of the cross. One who has a perfect ‘Knowledge of the breeds that he has put together sees in a moment that he Hhac fowls that are inferior to. elther ‘of the breeds that he has used. ‘These folks do not for a moment. consider ‘that it took years of careful and skill ful crossing, with a deiinite object in ‘view, that is, to produce a fowl that ‘could be depended upon to do certain things and to be superior to breeds on the same line, He does not stop to think that by crossing two of these ‘nearly perfect breeds he is very near where the originators commenced to ‘Improve them. In the product the re 'su't of his boasted cross is that he ‘has @ chicken that Is no better than ‘the original stock than the skillful and patient breeder commenced with, to produce a fowl that was better than any fowl in its class. In other words, they are not much better than the common barn-yard fowls that he could have bought for 50 cents, Again, | have stood by and have seen farm: ers and others pay good round round prices for large Rhode Island Red, or of some other breed male, weighing eight to ten pounds, to cross with his small, common hens, with the idea of breeding up to a lot of fowls that would equal in every re ‘spect thelr sire. ‘There is no question that he improves his his stock in the first generation, and if he uses a new male the next season he will continue to improve them. But what a slow and txlious process! About onethird of the result will be like their moth er and by & slow process he will have a fowl superior to the barn-yard fowl, but far inferior to the sire that he commenced with. Now, for a few dol- Jars more he could have purchased a pure breed, many times more than the price paid for the trio, It is wise, therefore, to pay a little extra tor the thoroughbred fowl, that the other fellow has the trouble and expense of producing —Exchange. SOME VALUABLE HINTS ON BROODERS AND INCUBA- ‘TORS. Carefully study the directions that come with incubators and brooders. ‘The manufacturer knows more about bis machine than any one else and nat- vrally his directions are given with the idea of securing the best results for the purchaser, It {s good plan to cool the eggs daily, just as the hen does; but take them out; do not cool the incubator. Do not “fool” with the regulator of yeur incubate, Too much adjusting tas ruined many a hatch. When eggs are replaced after cooling, remember that their temperature, lower than that of the Incubator interior, will naturally lower the general tempera- ‘ture for a short time. Do not change ‘the regulator—it will bring the tem- Terature up—Just give it timo. A little higher temperature at the NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1912. close of the hatch brings out more chicks, but the extra ones brought out by this forcing process are vers apt to be cripples or weaklings, ‘Therefore, keep as even temperature as possible. Keep th broder clean. ‘Too much importance cannot be attached to this point. Young chicks are very suscep ble to conditions, and much of the so-called cholera, dysentery and kin fired diseases may be attributed di ‘rectly to the presence of vermin and ‘nothing else, | ‘Transfer chicks from incubator to brooder as soon as the hatch is well completed. Give them water imme diately. After twenty-four hours. let their first food be dry oatmeal or cracked wheat, Vary this food with meat. seraps for three or four weeks, but give whole wheat for last feed at night after chicks are two weeks ‘old. Poultrymen difter on what. is best for the first few days’ feeding, but you cannot go wrong on oatmal or cracked wheat, A little cracked wheat and mitt ‘scattered in the litter of the broder encourages the chickens to take exer cise, Water should be placed in the brod. ‘er only in a fountain where it is ac cessible for drinising, but impossible ‘for th chicks to get into it and get themselves wet. Little chicks can't thrive in wet clothes any better than children. - THOROUCHBRED POULTRY. It is strange that rarmers and peo ple with only a small stock of pout try do not sce the advantage of hav. ing thoroughbred strains, even if they have only a half or a dozen chickens 44 one asks why they do not get blooded chickens, they say: “Oh, 1 do not want th.m to show. 1 only want a few chickons and eggs to eat.” ‘They do not seem to raliize that blooded chickens that have been bed up fur years la twice, if not three times, 8 many eggs asa common oF scrub’ chicken, or even a mixture of breeds. It is’ not uncommon to sec in t.e small farm yard or city lot a haltdozen or more difterent kinds o! chickons. It {s a motley crowd, with no attraction to the passerby. ' They forget that it takes about clghty eggs ‘to pay for tho feed of a chicken per year. If a hen lays leas than eighty eggs a year sne does not pay for her keep, Vry few of the common or ‘scrub stock will lay that many oggs @ year. ‘The average man or woman does not stop to think that a common chicken eats as much and is as hard to raise as a fine, blooded chicken, an! when it is grown it is not worth ‘over twenty to thirty cents, while a blooded bird is worth from one dol- lar up. Many breeders who have raised good poultry have received $5( to $100 for a single bird, whilo sales $5 to $10 are everyday occurrences. A Person right here in Nashville was Much surprised ono day when she was offered $., for a cockerel of ‘Pure blood that was runni:.g. around the yard. Tt 1s needless to say she soid the bird, end this ono instance has caused her to make many dollars out of pure-bred poultry, Grant that one never intends to seil a chicken or an egg. Why feed a few scrubs that will lay a few eggs each year, and those at a time when eggs are plenti- ful and cheap, when half that many thoroughbreds, or less, on a great deal less feed, will give more eggs, and all the year round, in winter as well as spring? Study the poultry business. Go to the shows. Learn the value of fine bred stock over common or mongrel stock. Nearly every one has a little time each day to spare, that if applied to pure bred poultry will result in quite a number of extra dol/ars in the pocketbook each year. ‘Try it and see, DIRTY BIRDS ON THE FARM. While there are a few egg _pro- ducers who take the best of care of their product, the average farmer considers the eggs produced on the farm a by-product and makes very little provision for their care, aside from gathering them. A large loss is caused by dirty eggs, the number being enormous, and according to the estimate of Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture, this money loss to the farmers in the United States amounts to about $5, 000,000 annually, ‘This loss is very largely brought about by not gathering the eggs oft en enough. In wet weather more dirty eggs are found than at any other time. ‘This 1s caused by the fact that the hen’s feet are often covered with mud or other filth, and in going on the nest to lay she soils the eggs al ready in the nest. An Insufficient number of nests {s often the cause of many of the dirty eges found. Eggs are laid on the ground and around the hay and straw stacks, and becoming stained, are classed as “dirtles.” Again, when too many eggs are allowed to remain in ‘4 nest some are broken and many of the others become smeared with bro- ken yolks, This condition is often brought about, by allowing the broody hens to use the same nests with the layers. On a farm where one nest to every four hens 1s provided and nests are kept clean and well beded, it Is found that very few dirty eggs are produced. After “gathering the eggs care should be taken not to put them where they will become heated, or near oll, onions, or ether vegetables, as they readily absorb odors. Although dirty eggs may be per fectly fresh, they invariably sell as “seconds,” and when but a few dirty eggs are mixed with an otherwise fresh, clean lot, they materia/ly de crease the price of the clean eggs.

Word was received in Nashville this week to the effect that Mr. ©. T. White, of 1050 Burnaby street, Van couver, B. C., had arranged to give to the Negroes of the United States their first opportunity to take in the entire Far West. He has planned a trip which starts at Chicago on July 14 with a special train of Pullman standard and tourist sleepers, to cover a distance of six thousand miles. The points of interest to vis it will be Puget Sound, Seattle, St. Paul, Minn., Oakland and San Fran cisco, Cal., Salt Lake City, Utah, and Denver, Colo.

THE RURAL SCHOOL THE SOCIAL CENTER OF COUNTRY LIFE. By Mrs. Green Williams. Madam Chairman, Ladies and Gen- tlemen: | E'len Key, the great Sweedish r- former and author, has just built a commodious, comfortable house by ‘the side of a lake in the great forest o fher native land. Te is filled with the magnificent ‘gifts of titled people, with the books and pictures of a life- |time selection, with the furniture and hangings that wealth can buy. At {her death all this passes ‘into’ the \hands of a Board of Trustees and her | will provides that every year from April to October, four working women at a time are te entertained for a month as her kuests in this lovely home. se Miss Key got the idea from the remark of a laundress. She had said “Rich poeple think that we poor’ peo ple envy them thelr wealth, It is not so, What we do envy is their culture and their opportunities for culture We, too, would like to have the oppor tunity and the leisure to see beautiful pictures and statues, to read books '|to travel, It is their culture we en We | “As a result of this talk, social even ings were started in Stockholm thai |have been kept up for 17 years anc have resulted in much good to th | wealthy women who have talked 0 their books and trave's as well as t ‘the working women who had no these things. | “The Rural Schoo! the Social Cen | ter of Country Lite,” is a broad sub ,/ ject, and includes every phase o |country activity. ‘The whole sthem: Davis’ Drug Stores 3 Nashville Drug Co.

She is accustomed to do, not talk. In a discussion she cannot hold her own, but no woman is more ready to listen and learn than the country woman. Many a mohter fongs to find some way to spare her daughter the tread. mill eistence she has known. The Nation and the State have been good to th farmer, but until very re cently his wife and children have shifted for themselves. The schools were of the poorest, due to young inexperienced teachers and dilaplds houses. The roads made travel im- possible, except in the early summer and the fall almost impossible. Wher the roads were good mother and the | children were too busy to go, or else teams could not be spared. In fact the average country home might a well be set in the midst of Sahara so far as social intercourse or know! | edge is coucerned. It is true that the | Rural Delivery and the Telephone are | making a few rifts in the black clouds but the sunshine is still very faint.

From the manner in which the states are barring Champion Jack Johnson from giving exhibitions with- in their borders ft would seem that before long the champion will hav. newhefe to fight and it be only a ques- tion-of time-before-he will have. to.do as the Arab did, fold his tont in the night and quietly steal away to dear Old France, the old field. To say that this action on the part of the authorities is just would be put- ting a small premium on truth, for it seems nothing more than a stob at ‘the champion because of his color. It does seem that the American sporting public should lay aside their preju- alee and look the facts squarely in the face. Jhnson is the champion. He has fought his way to the top upon ‘his merits. He has beaten the best that the world could send out, and above he is an American citizen, born and reared in the United States, and is proud of the fact. That Johnson has made a good champion foes with- out saying and the very fact that he stands at the head of his class shows that he has the brains, It is to be hoped that tho American public will some day aside all prejudice and give Johnson the square deal which he most assuredly deserves, and which all thinking people want to accord any man that has made his way to the top by honest and hard work. Manager Al Fremom, of the ter’ mitage Athletic Club, has given out information that he is endeavoring to arrange a bout between Kid Mitchell, the Nashville boy, and Young Jack Johnson, of Memphis. This bout is almost a certainty. The only ques- tion now unsettled is tho matter of making welghts. In talking over the matter with Kid Mitchell several days ago, it was learned that he was notyonly willing but very anxious to |meet Johnson, He stated that while [he was very sure that Johnson could |not win a decision over him in any number of rounds, he did not wish to |take any chances in al allowing him foo much weight. He said that if John- son would agree to make 158 pounds at § o'dock on the evening of the fight {he would be only too glad to comply | vith any requirements that the Men phis fighter might make. \" He further stated that while he did not wish to be placed upon record ‘as being technical, that Johnson is far too dangerous a man for’ anyone |(o take any unnecesary chances with Jand that he would have to ask him |to come within the limit so far as | weight. ts concerned, He is quoted further to say: “I am making Nashville my home, and |desire to ‘make good’ here with the ‘|shome folks’; and don't feel that 1 -|am doing the fight fans nor mysel || nny.eredit to give away a deal o ‘| weight to anyone; for the loss of on: -| ‘ight means so much to me just now.’ || Kid Mitchel! is a coming fighter, a ,Jhas been shown by his bouts here ‘| He 18 a fast, cloan mixer; can admin ister a good punch with either hand -Jand has a victory over Hock Bones rJonce the pride of Memphis, to hi || credit, and also one over Christy Wil .|linms, the New York middle weight t| Mitchell is very young, not bein y/over nineteen years ef age, If hi t{continues to take the same care o himself in the Intire as he now doe -|he will go. up in the pusitistie world -| It fs to be hoped ‘that the fight be {/iween Mitchell and Johnson can b >| catistactorily arranged, as it is sur to be @ good bout, and the fight tans are anxious to see Johnson In action against the Pride of Nashville, and will turn out en masse to sed the mill, Pa DR, N.

JUDGE NEIL SENTENCES PAT MALLOY TO BE EXECUTED APRIL 426, 1912. Pat Malloy, charged with the mur- der of Herman Henning on August 6, 1909, at 1 o'clock this afternoon was sentenced to death by hanging on April 26, 1912. He took the sentence calmly, stand- ing behind the defendant's table, and at. the conclusion of the solemn sen- tence said, “Thank you, sir,” to Judge Neil, who pronounced it, “Malloy.

Dews, who objected to ‘points in the former trial, and it was immediately overruled by’ Judge Neil. | The circumstances surrounding this case read like fiction, The connee- \tion of Malloy with the killing is en- |tirely circumstantial.
