Special to the Globe.
Special to New Orleans, La., Feb. 10.-Dr. R. H. Boyd, the Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, located at Nashville, Tenn., sailed for Panama today about noon. He left amid the waving of hanukkah is from a great crowd of admiring followers of his denomination that stood on the banks of the Father of Waters to bid him God speed on his important mission to the one spot where the eyes of the world seem to be focused. He sailed on the steamship Cartago, owned by the United States Fruit Company. His boat drew out from the wharf and steamed down the great Mississippi River carrying its distinguished passenger, whose mission must mean so much to the Baptists of the country, whose foresight has been extremely good in establishing themselves in the Panama Canal Zone, the strategic point where the nations of the world must come to take advantage of the important change made in navigation. The Rev. D. Boyd was here for three days as the only Negro member of the executive committee of the International Sunday-School Association, which held its session from the 79th, inclusive. The very fact that he represents the largest constituent of any Protestant body in the United States made him an important

NEGRO SWUNG FROM A BRIDGE
(By Associated Press.)
Memphis, Tenn., February 15—A
mob early lynched an unidentified
Negro accused of grooming a sixteen-year-old white girl yesterday.
that white said the Negro confessed in part. A rope was tied about his neck, he was dragged to a bridge a branch of Wolf River, hanged from the bridge and his body later ridden with bullets.
The attack on the young white girl occurred near Raleigh Springs, a Memphis suburb. Possess scoured the countryside all day, and early last night near the National Cemetery captured the Negro, who was later lynched. He was identified after being kept in hiding several hours in order to avoid delivery to the authorities. After he had been hanged and his body pierced by fifty or more shots, it was cut down and taken into the bushes, where it was discovered this morning. It is believed that the mob was composed of about forty persons, no clews to whose identity were left.

SEARCH FOR BODY OF NEGRO LYNCHED VAIN—REPORT THAT ASSAILANT OF WHITE GIRL NEAR MEMPHIS WAS HANGED AND SHOT UNCONFIRMED.
(By Associated Press.)
Memphis, Tenn., February 15.—Although it was currently reported early today in the vicinity of Raleigh Springs, a Memphis suburb, that a young Negro accused of having attacked a young white woman near there yesterday had been lynched, the most persistent search of the section by the authorities failed to discover the body of the Negro supposed to have been hanged and shot sometime during last night. The sheriff's today arrested another suspect and will attempt to determine whether he made the attack.
One report concerning the alleged lynching is that the body was thrown into a branch of Wolf River. Late today the authorities were unable to say definitely whether there really was a lynching near Memphis last night.

CABLE OFFICE.
Dr. Boyd stated that his mission to Panama was to get first hand knowledge of the conditions affecting his people and denomination. He said that his Board and Convention had urged him to make the trip last year, but that not until this week had he been able to make the necessary arrangements. He stated that the work of his connection on the Canal Zone was in charge of the Rev. Mr. Thourbourne, who is a graduate of one of the leading Baptist schools in the United States, and that his helpmate was a native Tennessee. These two people, said Dr. Boyd, have wrought well.
Some of those responsible for his great reception and successful stay in the city were Revs. Piercy, Brown, Burritt, Hubbs, Acock, Simms, Antone, Porter, and others who feel that they are rendering service as well respect by supporting the Secretary of two of the leading Boards of their convention. The steamship Cartago which takes Dr. Boyd to Panama will visit the cities of Panama, Empire, Pedro Miguel, and Ancon. The probabilities are that he will also visit Jamaica for a conference with the Rev. Mr. Stewart, president of the Jamaica Baptist Convention before returning to the United States.
NEGRO BAPTISTS MUST GO IT
SINGLE-HANDED.
That the Negro Baptists of the United States must go single-handed and alone in the establishment of their long-cherished National Baptist Seminary, if they are to have one at a l', is the opinion that seems now to prevail among the Baptists of this city, especially since there appeared in the National Baptist Union-Review of last week an editorial under the caption "President Morris' Communication." It appears that a promise or a pledge of $15,000 was made to the Negro Baptists a number of years ago by an agent of one of the big Northern Educational Societies known as the American Baptist Home Mission Society, but that this pledge was conditioned upon the raising of a certain amount by the Baptists. At any rate, at their National Convention held in Memphis, Tenn., some years ago, they voted unanimously to act the proposition and to begin the work of raising the necessary funds. They even went so far as to select Nashville as the place to locate this Theological Seminary. The Secretary of the Educational Board at that time was Rev. Dr. Klugh, of New Jersey.
The Convention, however, continued to agitate the Theological Seminary idea, but from reports made from year to year, they were never able to raise the $10,000. Recently, or at least, since the Pittsburg meeting, the educational fever raised itself to an unusual height, so much so that the President of the National Baptist Convention opened correspondence with the Corresponding Secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, and it seems that this Corresponding Secretary in stating the position of the Board, holds out but little hope for he $15. proposition.
The assertion leaked out somehow that the present Secretary of Educational Board, Rev. S. E. Griggs, was going around misleading facts and that the Home Mission Society had never promised the $15,000. Such a rumor reached Nashville from the East, where Rev. Mr. Griggs is now on a speaking tour, in fact, several weeks ago a message reached here to the effect that Dr. Morehouse, of New York, was asking that these statements be discontinued. Immediately following this there came a letter appearing in the Union-Review from Dr. Morehouse, denying emphatically that a $15,000 offer is held to encourage the establishment of this notable Theological Seminary. In the letter from Dr. Morehouse to Dr. Morris, which appeared in the Union-Review of February 10, he declares that it has never been the intention of his Society to centralize a Theological Seminary in any one portion of the South; they had rather, so the letter states, encourage Theological training in every higher institution of learning. However this may be, the people of Nashville view the situation this way: That if the Negroes

Jackson, Tein., Feb. 14.—There is no meeting held in Tennessee more important and more far-reaching in its influence to the Negro people of the state than the Farmers' Conference and Negro Business Men's League that is held each year at Lane College, Jackson, Tennessee.
The next annual session of this organization will be held Thursday and Friday, February 29th and March 1st, 1912. During the past nine years of its history this conference has accomplished much good in correcting false ideas of life, stimulating a deeper interest in things essential to our progress and well-being in exposing wrong practices and bad methods of farming and encouraging our people in making strides along safe and sane lines of progress.
Last year, there were more than two hundred and fifty farmers, mechanics, doctors, teachers, and workers in attendance upon the work of the conference, and much real good was accomplished. The approaching session promises even greater results than that attained at any of the previous meetings. Already an unusually large number of workers have signified their intention of being present, and ample preparation is being made for their entertainment and comfort. Such questions as, what I have done during the past year to help along the general progress of the race, how can the death rate among our people be lowered, the Negro and crime, how can the social and religious life of the Negroes be improved, the need of an educational awakening among the people, and how farm life can be made more attractive for young people, are among the many live topics that will be brought prominently before the Conference.
Agricultural experts from the State and National Governments have promised to be present to discuss the many phases of scientific farming in a most interesting and helpful manner. Aside from these speakers, prominent members of the race have accepted places on the program, and a great time is anticipated.
It is through just such meetings as this one that Negroes can gather encouragement and inspiration such as will lead them on to a higher and better sphere of life and living.
The program is as follows;
Thursday Morning, February 29th, at 10 o'clock.
General Topic—"What Have I Done During the Past Year to Help Along the General Progress of the Race?"
Thursday Night, at 7:30 o'clock.
General Topic—"Bustness and Economic Life of the Negro."
want anything at all in the way of a Baptist Seminary, they must go at it single-handed and alone, as no hope seems to be held out in the way of financial encouragement.
Dr. Morris, in writing to the Unionview, advocates a speedy call of the Educational Board to readjust it: self to the conditions, and it is surmised by some that they may take their Educational Secretary off the field and begin the campaign in another way. Dr. T. J. Searcy, of Memphis, Tenn., is the Chairman of the Educational Board and the majority of the Board is located in Nashville.
It seems that in the death of Dr. Sales, which occurred several weeks ago in New York, there is no living evidence of this promise, as it is known that Dr. Sales had from time to time and on several occasions made such a statement. It seems, however, that nothing in writing to this effect was ever given, with the death of Dr. Sales the last vestige of hope, insofar as the National Negro Baptist Theological Seminary and the $15,000 are concerned, is swept away, and the utterance of the Educational Secretary, Dr. Griggs, is regarded by Dr. Morehouse as false and misleading. Just what will be done when the Educational Board meets, or whether Dr. Griggs will be recalled, is not known in Nashville, as few, if any, of the Baptists in authority will comment, even the editor of their national organ is unwilling to make any statement for publication.
HISTORIC FRANKLIN TAKING ON NEW
When speaking of the different cities and towns of Tennessee that have first-class records as important towns where the people are doing things, one must not overlook Franklin, the county seat of Williamson. No more wide-awake seat, of its size, can be found in the old Volunteer State. Franklin is the local center of the State of Tennessee, being as near Shelby as it is to Carter. While it is true it cannot be of being a metropolis but the encouraging feature of Williamson County's largest city is, that out of about three thousand inhabitants, one thousand are Negroes. These thrifty, industrious, wide-awake one thousand Negroes stand on par with those of any other city. Indeed the homes of some of the most noted men and women in the United States can be traced to this quiet, unassuming spot on Tennessee's map. In order that one might get a pictorial glance of what is transpiring in Williamson County, whose record in ante-bellum days stands unparalleled in the state and whose citizenship, present and past, has afforded great men and women, a review of the personnel as well as the avocations of, bustness among the Negroes might not be of place.
The Negroes are conducting the following businesses: grocery stores, butcher shops, shoe shops, tailoring establishments, undertaking establishments, hotels and other enterprises that, not only furnish their children employment, but that give them a rating in the business world. All of this has not induced them to overlook their religious duties. There are eight organized, well-attended churches whose tower points skyward at Franklin. The peaceful relation which exists between the races has always been a matter of much favorable comment.
Franklin and Williamson County furnished more free Negroes during the period of slavery than any other section of the state. This is actually proven by the records. There were Negroes in Williamson County during the darkest days of slavery who were pursuing first-class trades and whose children still live to testify to these facts. At present there are some successful business men and farmers in the county: Mr. A. N. C. Williams, proprietor of a grocery store; Mr. G. W. Patton & Company, grocery merchants; Mr. T. A. Williams, proprietor of a grocery store; Mr. J. T. Patton, undertaker; Mr. H. G. Ewing, undertaker; Mr. John Lawrence, merchant tailor; Mr. Andrew Merritt, blacksmith; Mr. Will Redmond, proprietor of a hotel; Mr. John Carter, president of the Thrashing Machine Company; Mr. Andrew Ewing, Mr. Henry Ferguson and Mr. Harry Ewing are contractors, and there is a contracting firm in the city known as Ewing and Wilson.
The proprietors of barbershops are Messrs. Fount Brown, Jackson McEwen and John Hughes. While the butcher shop there is owned by Mr. Charley Conn, who has been in business over a quarter of a century, Mr. Jack Shelburn is one of the leading upholsterers in the city, while Mr. Gus Foster occupies an enviable position as a machine man. Prominent among the farmers in close proximity to Franklin, who own splendid farms of their own, are Messrs. Jack Daws, Tom Mason, Wiley Scruggs, John Gentry and M Hatcher. The homes of Franklin compare on the whole favorably with those of any other city in the state.
MR. GRIFFIN KILLED
Richmond, Va.—Members of the Grand United Order of True Reformers in various parts of the country were shocked to hear of the death in Petersburg, Va., Monday night of Walter R. Griffin, grand master of the order. Mr. Griffin was returning on the Norfolk and Western Railroad from a trip to West Virginia when a wreck occurred about 20 miles from Petersburg. His head was spit from ear to ear. He was taken to a hospital at Petersburg, where he died. He was scheduled to speak that night in Wilmington, Del., and when he did not arrive in Richmond in time to make train connections for the North, officials of the order made the wires hot with inquiries only to learn that he was dead.
The Rosebud members of the North were in annual session at Philadelphia Tuesday and when time arrived for Mr. Griffin to address them, a telegram announcing his sudden end reached them. They adjourned immediately out of respect to him.
PUBLISHING BOARD MEETING.
A regular monthly meeting of the National Baptist Publishing Board was held Tuesday morning in the secretary's office. The meeting was presided over by Chairman Clark, who stated to the Board that the secretary was at that time on his way to Panama Zone. Missionary matters came up for consideration, as were other important items concerning the continued success of the Publishing Board.

Talk of Lynching Met with Firm Condemnation of Citizens—Officials Take Positive Stand— Quiet Restored at Once— Bedford County Ideal
Special to the Globe:
Shelbyville, February 13.
The people in the towns and vicinities of Bellbuckle, Wartrace and Shelbyville were greatly shocked and consequently thrown into a state of wild excitement last Saturday and Sunday, when the news had spread abroad that two colored men, Dave Nell and Watt Greer, both of Shelbyville, had been lodged in jail for the alleged crime of killing and throwing off the train, a white man, who was said to be a railroad detective. An alleged third party to the tragedy has not been apprehended. The trouble seems to have been brought about by the white man, Mr. S. W. Everson, by name, attempting to quiet a disturbance between the colored men, all of whom, it is said, were drinking and otherwise behaving roughly.
Talk of lynching was freely induged in by not a few. For a time there was considerable excitement for fear that such an outbreak would take place, but be it said to the credit of the sheriff of Bedford County, firmly sustained by the citizens of Shelbyville, who have ever stood for law and order, it was soon understood that an attempt at a lynching would have met with the most stubborn resistance. All talk of mob violence was soon quieted, and there is no doubt but that the prisoners will meet with the penalty that their crime deserves after a trial according to law. From what it could be learned, both of these young men bear a bad reputation, and if they are guilty of the crime charged against them, they deserve to be punished to the full extent of the law, as no doubt they will be. People are so accustomed to looking for a lynching when similar occurrences take place between a white man and Negroes, that they were hardly prepared to believe the story true whenever they hear that a white community allows cases of this kind to pass by without taking the law into their own hands.
It was only a few weeks ago when the town of Shelbyville was shocked by the double murder of two men in the streets at the hands of one Anderson, a white man. There was considerable talk at that time of lynching Anderson should he have been caught while the excitement ran high. But after the lapse of two or three weeks Anderson returned, and gave himself up, and is now lodged in the Bedford County jail, awaiting his trial.
In the light of these facts is brought to mind what has so often been said by leading colored citizens of Shelbyville and Bedford County; that the white citizens of that community are probably the exceptions in the state of Tennessee when it comes to standing for law and order, and the friendly relations which exist there between the Negroes and the whites.
This does not mean that there is an iota of difference between Shelbyville and other towns, so far as social relations are concerned. But it does mean that the best citizens there mould sentiment, and that that sentiment is always in favor of law and order and good government. They seem to know that crime can not be stopped by committing a crime, nor should be punished by criminals.
It is remembered very distinctly that when an attempt was made a few months ago to move the Turner Normal College from Shelbyville to another town, Dr. J. A. Jones, the president, who was the foremostposer to the movement, urged as one of his strongest points, that fact that there was no community in the state so well fitted for the location of the school, on account of the friendlyrelations of the races in that town. Dave Niel and Watt Greer will be dealt with as individuals, the leadingcitizens of Bedford County not being of that class that blame a wholecommunity of Negroes for the acts of one.
MR. SMITH RESIGNS FROM BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Mr. Edward J. Smith, who was probably the youngest member on theBoard of Education in point of years,has been forced to resign on account of his health.
Mr. Smith will be missed by his colleagues, as he was a persistent,conscientious worker. He alwaysstood for what he believed to beright and for the best interest of allthe people. Mr. Smith is one of theleading attorneys in this city, butwas never too busy to lay aside his business to perform a duty for the publicgood.

ST. LUKE PENNY SAVINGS BANK.
One of Richmond's Oldest Banking Concerns Holds Annual Stockholders' Meeting and Estate Discounts
Richmond, Va., Feb. 6.—As has been the custom since the organization of this bank, which grew out of the rapid improvements made among the St. Lukes, throughout the United States, the annual stockholders' meeting of the St. Luke Penny Savings Bank was held in the office of the directors last week. The meeting was harmonious and the business transacted was of great importance. The reports showed that the institution was on the most sound basis, and that the net earnings for the past year justified the claim made by the president, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, the cashier, Mr. Emmett C. Burke when they announced that the past year had been one of the most successful in the history of the bank. The stockholders at their meeting elected as directors for the ensuing year the following: H. L. Harris, M. B. Jones, E. D. Lewis, Maggie L. Walker, D. Webster Davis, P. H. Ford, W. I. Johnson, W. Miller, Grief Houston, W. W. Fields, A. F. Angel', A. S. West, A. L. Calhoun, H. H. Cooley, R. E. Watson, H. M. Smith, L. H. Payne and E. C. Burke After the stockholders had finished their work they adjourned.
The Board of Directors met and elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker; vice president, E. D. Lewis; cashier, Emmett C. Burke; assistant cashier, Mary H. Dawson. This bank has put itself on record as being one of the most notable in the country because Mrs. Maggie L. Walker is the only woman in the United States at the head of a bank. The assistant cashier is also a woman in the person of Mrs. Mary H. Dawson. The bank not long since moved into its splendid palatial quarters. No account was taken with regard to the declaring of the dividend. This matter was left in the hands of the Board of Directors.

All are invited to hear Miss Waytes, who is a forceful speaker and will evidently say many things which will be of direct interest to women.
Mrs. J. C. Caldwell, President of the Missionary Society of Scovel Street Church, will preside.
A BRILLIANT EXAMPLE OF THRIFT AND INDUSTRY.
speak to the town.
La Grange, Tenn., Feb. 16.—The subject of this sketch was born and reared in Fayette County, Tennessee. For many years he suffered hardships as a farmer, share cropping, renting and moving from place to place with not more than a wagon full of this world's goods. He finally became disgusted with such pearl to post living and decided to realize the benefits of his labor by endeavoring to become a real estate owner and thereby becoming a real
factor of the Negro race. Five years ago Mr. Pruitt had only five head of stock, one wagon and a large family to support. Today he owns 196 1-2 acres, which cost $10 per acre, located 3 1-2 miles from Somerville Railroad. He has just completed a beautiful live-room cottage at a cost of $1,250, that would be an ornament to any city. The farm was almost a wilderness when Mr. Pruitt took charge of it, but he has conquered the giant oaks, cleared the forest and transformed the wilderness into fortile soil that yields wealth in abundance. The farm with its modern improvements is worth $5,000.
Mr. Pruitt is a deacon of New Zion Baptist Church, and an energetic Sunday-school worker. He is proud of his racial identity.
NATIONAL TUBERCULOSIS DAY
ON APRIL 28TH.
Over 50,000 Sermons Preached in 1911—Tuberculosis Death Rate High Among Church Members.
Sermons on the prevention of consumption will be preached in thousands of churches on April 28th, which the National Association for the Study had Prevention of Tuberculosis, according to an announcement made today, has set aside a Tuberculosis Day.
Last year out of 200,000 churches in the United States, over 50,000 observed Tuberculosis Day, and millions of churchgoers were told about this disease from the pulpit. This year will be the third observation of Tuberculosis Day. Plans rae being made to have the Gospel of Health preached more widely than ever before.
The movement will 'eb pushed through the 600 anti-tuberculosis associations allied with the National Association and through the boards of health, women's clubs, and other organizations in hundreds of cities and towns throughout the country. Through these various bodies the churches will be reached and interested in the tuberculosis campaign. According to reports gathered by the National Association in 1911, practically 10 per cent. of all deaths in church congregations are caused by tuberculosis. In a study of 312,000 communicants of 725 churches, in which there were 7,000 deaths in 1910, the death rate among these church-members was found to be 2.24 for every thousand communicants. This is higher than the rate for the registration Area of the United States which was 1.60 in 1910.
"While these statistics," says the National Association, "are not comparable from the point of view of accuracy with those of the Bureau of the Census, sufficient credence may be given to them to indicate that one of the most serious problems the ordinary church has to consider is that of the devastation of its membership by tuberculosis. Every minister in the United States should give this subject some attention during the week preceding or that following April 30th."
CARD OF THANKS
I, Alvin W. Ray, and mother, Mrs. James Ray, wish to thank our many friends for the kindness shown us during my illness.
A SHORT HISTORY OF MY BUSINESS.
To the Friends of Franklin, Williamson, Counties, Teen.
Eight years ago I was endowed with the thought of establishing in our midst a colored Undertaker's Establishment, being quite young and without means, I sought to get aid by naming the proposition to a few whom I thought were able to invest. My proposition was turned down. My second effort was to form a club, which was done. Each invested about $3.50, made an order to a Southern State for Burial Cases. The order was accepted, goods shipped, laid in store for twelve months without a burial of even a pauper. The property owner consumed the stock for rent. I was again at a loss. My third and last effort was doubtful though successful. We were able to give a decent burial, without skill, were criticised by a few, but can say at this writing. I am better situated to render to the public a first-class service in undertaking than ever before. I have up-to-date paraphernalia and do scientific embalming and give courteous treatment in managing to the bereaved and their many friends, giving this a special study to suit the public patrons. I am located at the I. O. I Hall, where we will equip the showroom with first-class goods to select from. I want to thank the people at large for their patronage and solicit your future work.
Good and honest service is my motto.

and Help. Mrs. H. A. Cameron read
an article, “A New Conscience and
an .Anclent Evil,” by Jane Addams,
from McClure’s ‘Magazine, that was
interesting and full of practical sug-
gestions, This was followed by “Pass
It On” helps and suggestions from
the other members present, and
proved one of the most interesting
features of the program, in that every
suggestion offered by the members
had been tried and found worth
‘while passing on.
A social hour ‘followed the _ pro:
gram, during which a delightful sa-
lad course was served by the hostess.

FOUR DAYS OF INSTITUTE WORK.
Sunday-School Union Adopts Big Plans for Boosting Religious Training in Nashville.
Four days are to be spent in the conducting of a Sunday-School Institute, in the city of Nashville, participated in by 42 Baptist Sunday-schools. At the conclusion of the Institute, which is to open on Tuesday, April 16 and close April 19th, there is to be a mammoth parade. Three thousand active Sunday-school workers will be in this parade. The line of march is to be through the down town district, en route of the big auditorium, where an overflow Sunday-school afternoon meeting, on the order of a sacred rhetorical, is to be given for the benefit of the city of Nashville.
There are to be 200 well trained voices in the chorus, and special sacred solos are to be rendered. The Sunday afternoon meeting is to take place Sunday, April 21st.
When the details of the meeting, which were unanimously adopted the Sunday-School Union, which met with the Second Baptist Church, on Stevens and Deluge streets, last Sunday, were made public, Superintendent T. J. Lewis, said that no stone would be left unturned to make

this a record breaker, in so-far as religious demonstration in the city of Nashville was concerned.
The special committee to make the plans and arrangements for these four days' institute work, with the demonstration on Sunday afternoon, consists of Revs. Henry Allen Boyd, N. H. Plus, and J. Davenport Bushell. The Union, Sunday added the officers to this committee.
The plans as reported by the committee were, that the forty-two Baptist Sunday-schools of Nashville were to co-operate to the following extent:
First: One Superintendent from each of the 42 Sunday-schools is to influence at least four of his teachers to attend the Institute.
Second: Each teacher is to influence at least five pupils to attend while each church is to furnish an average of 50 members.
The committee shows by these calculations that it is reasonable to expect a minimum attendance of 3,130, at the four days' institute, and 5,000 at the afternoon meeting.
Much enthusiasm was shown, when the report was read and expained by Henry Allen Boyd, who reported for the committee, and who stated that it was leading up to Nashville's preparations for the coming Sunday-

SOMETHING NEW FOR NASHVILLE.
D. W. Crutcher's New Store.
Men's Furnishing and Tailoring. Never before has there been such an awakening among the Negroes of Nashville, especially among the business men. The time is opportune and there is a demand for our people to enter all lines of business. We must have substantial business men conducting businesses in all the mercantile lines, creating and giving employment to our men and women, boys and girls. We feel certain that the Negroes of Nashville would much prefer buying their merchandise from a Negro merchant, when they are assured of courteous treatment, correct values, and at as reasonable prices as obtained elsewhere.
Mr. D. W. Crutcher, known to all the citizens of Nashville for his sterling worth, will open at an early date, in the New Majestic Building, 424 Cedar street, a first-class Men's Furnishing and Tailoring Store. Mr. Crutcher started at the bottom and his success is no secret. He has been the arbiter of fashions for the young men of the city and the schools for several years. We predict for him a large measure of success, as we feel certain that he will conduct a first-class, establishment, and can be depended upon to meet every requirement necessary to his business. He has had many years of experience in some of the leading white stores of the city, both in the Men's Furnishing an Tailoring business. Speaking of his plans, Mr. Crutcher has this to say:
pains, Mr. Crutcher has this to say,
"It has long been my ambition to conduct a first-class Men's Furnishing and Tailoring Store. It has been an abiding dream day and night, and to realize my dream I am giving the best of my thoughts and efforts, and I am very proud to announce to the Nashville public that I will add to "Tailoring" a "Mon's Furnishing Department." I am planning a grand spring opening about March 14th and have spared no pain, expense, time or energy to open up for our people a store the equal of any place of its kind in the city. I will carry in stock a complete line of collars, shirts, neckwear, socks, underwear, suspenders, garters, handkerchiefs, belts, umbrellas and jewelry for men. I have already made my purchases from the most reputable manufacturers and jobbers of the East, and within a few days will receive goods in large quantities. I ordered direct from the manufacturers in most cases, enabling me to buy at the lowest possible cost and assuring me a stock of fresh new goods. My location is ideal—right in the center of the city and in the heart of the Negro business center. I am occupying the "East Store" in the in the Majestic New and the store is fresh, new and well lighted. In the tailoring department I have added facilities and have selected my woolen and a deal of care, and have for inspection the choicest location in the looms of Europe and America to be found anywhere in the city. Place your "Tailoring Wants" with me and I will guarantee you a suit of clothes with the proper style to suit your taste and figure; the latest weaves in woolen, patterns and shades that are strictly this season's creations. Satisfaction in fit and workmanship. I want to make every Negro in Nashville proud of "This Store." And to accomplish that end I am giving my best efforts. I invite every one to pay my store a visit, inspect my goods, get my prices, compare them with the goods and prices elsewhere. Should you not be in need anything in my line, come in any way; sit for a while; help yourself to stationery; meet your friends and enjoy a privilege Negroes of Nashville do not feel free to exercise at stores where they have been buying their furnishing goods and tailoring. My store will always be clean and inviting, stock fresh and new and every thing tastefully arranged. Your wants will be courteously and quickly served, and you can be sure that you will not purchase inferior goods or pay more for an article than you would at other stores.
"telephone orders will receive prompt attention and the goods send to your address. Suggestions from any one will be gladly received. M' greatest aim is to serve and please the public. I will be glad to receive the patronage and approval of the public."

NASHVILLE TO HAVE NEW PUBLICATION.
The Negro Merchant and Mechanic,
A Monthly Magazine Devoted to
The Industrial, Financial and General
Business Interests of the Race,
...to Be Published in This City.
It has been rumored for several days that a business journal managed by Negroes would be published in Nashville in the near future, but not until recently could the rumor be verified.
For several years the people of this country have felt the need of a medium of this kind, by which they might be able to keep in close touch with the industrial, financial and general business interest of the colored people of this country, and it is anticipated that this magazine will bring about great results in this respect. The name of the magazine will be the Negro Merchant and Mechank, and the following course has been outlined: First, to show to the outside world the progress that has already been made by our people; second, to stimulate more interest in and to encourage and promote all worthy business enterprises; third, to show the possibilities of a people if properly trained.
The progress made by the race in the past few years has been wonderful, yet there is an ever-increasing demand for better trained business men and more skilled mechanics, which this paper will endeavor to point out. From the personnel of the men behind the project and from the course as outlined, success will inevitably follow. It was learned by a Globe reporter that offices for the management have already been secured and are now being equipped with the most modern office conveniences, and that the initial edition will appear on or about the first of March.
P. S. S.
CALVIN L. MCKISSACK.
It is understood that the aactive management will be in the hands of Mr. Calvin L. McKissack, who was a student at Fisk University for several terms.

HAMPTON NEGRO FARMERS
CONFERENCE.
Hampton, Va—The Hampton Institute annual meeting of the Negro Farmers' Conference brought together several hundred entristing and prosperous farmers of Virginia, who are eager to improve their farm practice and secure increased yields per acre. Year by year the Farmers' Conference has brought to Hampton a large number of visitors from other states. This year the visitors came from twelve states and Canada, and included a number of Government workers from Washington, D. C. This 'Conference is managed by the Agricultural Department, of which Mr. Charles K. Graham is the director.

MCKENZIE NOTES.
Dr. Rainey is kept very busy as quite a number are sick. Mrs. Hurie Nolen is quite sick. Miss Maud Barker is convalescent. We are glad to see Mrs. Charity Rogers and her son, Robert, up again. Mrs. Susan Bunton is indisposed this week. Mr. Oscar Vincent, of St. Louis, was called to see his sister, Mrs. Emma Coady, who has been quite sick. Mrs. Lucy Manley is visiting her father this week at Huntingdon. Mrs. Ann Bibbs has pneumonia. We were entertained very highly Monday and Tuesday nights at the colored hall by "The Anderson Theatre Family." They were given a full house both nights. Messrs. Williams and McCorcle are having great success in their Bible class among the colored people. Their teachings have been wholesome, interesting and strictly Biblical. Those who attend the class are delighted and highly appreciate the effort that these white gentlemen are making to help lift us, and by so doing enable us to live better Christians and better citizens. We get from them what we have not been able to get from our pastors, as these gentlemen are profound men and well able to instruct. Sorry they were made to feel unpleasant in the Baptist church by the pastor and his chancies and a few members. We extend to the pastor and his officers a special invitation to be with us in our class and we assure them that they will be better men and will know how to treat their Christian brethren, whether white or black, Methodist or Baptist. It is not the office we hold in this world that makes us great, but it's the man or woman who has the pure heart. The Methodists opened their doors and have given us a hearty welcome. We had a glorious meeting Sunday evening and much good was done. Rev. Partee, the pastor of the C. M. E. Church, will preach at 11 a.m. Sunday. He wants every member to be present. Members of other churches are always welcome.
CLIFTON NOTES.
We are still having some winter. A heavy snow fell last Friday. The "Tacky Contest" last Saturday night was an enjoyable feature, under the auspices of the A. M. E. Church Mrs. A. T. Cooper and Miss M. L. Jones were the contestants. There was preaching at the M. E. and A. M. E. churches Sunday. Mrs. I. L. Jones was not at church Sunday on account of illness. Mr. Charlie Churchwell is still sick. The members and friends of St. James M. E. Church donated him a handsome sum of money Sunday night, as he has been sick for some time. Mr. Grant Bumpas and son were in town Monday mingling with friends. Miss Gulla Robinson, of Paducah, Ky., is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Gip Robinson, on Church street. The Sunday-school of Mt. Tabor Baptist Church is taking on new life. St James M. E.

THER BEST PAPER PUBLISHED.
The Nashville Globe is one of the best papers published in America." This is the remark made by Mr. Thos. G. Walker, of Neeleyville, Mo. Mr Walker has been a constant reader of the Globe from the beginning. He has watched it grow and has noted its steady march of progress, and does not hesitate to make the plain declaration just quoted. While he is living in the state of Missouri, he is a reader of many strong journals, but of all of them, he prefers the Nashville Globe, and is recommending it constantly to his friends.
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 Sunday-school 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.

Will You Have an Easter Exercise at Your Sunday-School?
Our Easter Greeting's FOR THE OBSERVANCE OF EASTER 1912 ARE NOW READY
ALL OF our former efforts in preparing Easter Greetings in which there would appear appropriate exercises for those schools and the congregations, that desire to carry out this celebration, have been eclipsed this year in the production of our Easter Greetings, which is being published in colors. The demand for Easter Greetings last year was so great that we were compelled to print three editions. That is to say, we had to put the form on the press three times so that all the orders could be filled. One good brother has just sent in an order for five hundred. He is ordering his in time. If you will send in your order for Easter Greetings at once we can ship them out by mail. This will give you an opportunity to have your rehearsals so that the children will be thoroughly drilled in the mode of exercise.
The recitations are appropriate, the music cheerful, while the order of exercise is entertaining in every respect.
The Price of Easter Greetings is 35c per doz. $3 per 100

POULTRY TALKS FOR GLOBE READERS HINTS FOR THE MONTH
February to Mid-March.
Busy season begins now, and usually we get the worst of the winter weather of the north at this time. Look out for frosted combs and wattles. A hen with a frosted comb is apt to quit laying, and a male in the same fix is not of much use as a breeder until he is comfortable again. Rub frost bites well with cold water, snow or grease and rub until parts are soft and of normal color. Then rub in lard or vaseline. Keep the bird in cold, open-air quarters.
****
Use plenty of soft hay or chaff in the nests and gather eggs often. Don't let the eggs freeze.
****
Get busy hatching chicks for early pullets. You want a nice bunch next fall to make good in the season of high prices. Early pullets for fall and winter eggs.
If litter is damp or dirty remove it and replace with new material. If it gets damp quickly, either air out house more or use less litter. If litter is always damp, try and dry sanded floor and a very little planer shavings. Don't permit dampness in your poultry house.
Make up your mind this year that you cannot afford to hatch eggs and rear chicks from debilitated stock, birds lacking in constitutional vigor. It is a waste of time and money. No matter what your neighbor does, make up your mind to breed for health, vigor and vitality.
On the first warm day this month sweeten up the poultry house. Clean off the droppings boards, or remove the manure from the floor if you don't use them. Use a good disinfectant and lice killer about the roosts and droppings boards.
Set that broody hen, don't break her up. Start her with a nest full of fertile eggs that you have run in an idle incubator for a week or long enough to test them. We like hen-hatched chicks early, late and most all the time.
* * *
Don't be in a hurry to let hens, which have been housed all winter, run out of doors now. Long exposure to cold, bleak winds while squatting on cold, wet ground won't do them any good.
* * *
Before you set that hen be sure the nest is properly prepared and that the eggs won't roll from under her out onto the floor or into the corners of the nest. Don't make the nest too deep or too soft or she may crush the eggs. Don't make it too shallow or she will find it hard work to keep the eggs under her. Use a little earth under the hay or straw to keep the nest from being too dry. Dust the hen, when you set her, thoroughly all over with pure, fresh
Send Five Cents For a Sample Copy
Persian pyrethrum powder and give her another dusting about three days before the eggs are due to hatch. Don't forget or put off the dusting if you want good chicks and freedom from big, fat lice. It don't pay to grow chicks to feed lice.
Hen-hatched, hen-brooded chicks can be successfully reared in small, outdoor coops in cold weather. A small coop about 2-12 feet cube, with "A" roof and a sliding window sash for south front and door, will make comfortable quarters. Confine the hen in a slatted-front cracker box placed in the rear half of such a coop and let the chicks have the run of the balance of the floor space, with plenty of haymow chaff to scratch in. It makes a good natural brooder and when the chicks need more range than the coop floor they will be ready for an outdoor run. Run the coop out of door.
February and March incubator chicks, if well hatched, will do remarkably well in individual brooders operated in an open shed or an openfront poultry house. Usually our early hatches give us the best chicks and the quickest growth. If you provide a place where the chicks and warm up quickly and start them right, you will find cold weather chicks easier to raise and less trouble than those hatched in the warm season.
BIG SUNDAY-SCHOOL UNION MEETING
The relation of the church to the Sunday-chool was the theme under discussion at the regular monthly meeting of the Sunday-School Union of Baptist Sunday-schools held at the Second Baptist Church, pastored by Rev. G. B. Taylor, corner Stevens and Deluge streets, last Sunday. This was easily the largest meeting in point of attendance as well as enthusiasm ever held by the Union. The church was full, every Sunday-school in the city was represented. The speaker who opened the discussion, Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, who is editor of the Union-Review, in discussing the relation of the church and Sunday-school, scored telling points in his argument which was very instructive. After his discussion, three minutes were allowed which were taken advantage of by quite a number of the pastors as well as superintendents. Two papers by little girls on Sunday-school subjects were read to the delight of the audience. This being the annual meeting, the election of officers took place. The entire list of old officers was re-elected for the ensuing year: Rev. T. J. Lewis, president; Mr. A. J. Hubbard, vice president; Mrs. Jesse Brown, corresponding secretary; Miss Florence Burnett, recording secretary and Mr. Bryant, treasurer.

DELTA PENNY SAVINGS BANK.
Indianola, Miss.—Geater preparations for the future success of the Delta Penny Savings Bank, of this city, has been made, as a result of the annual meeting of the stockholders, which was held at the bank recently. If was commendable to note in the stockholders meeting such a large attendance. The reports made by the cashier and the president argued much for the future of the institution which has helped to furnish a substantial financial rating of the Negroes of this section of the state. The stockholders re-elected the entire old board of directors and declared a dividend of 6 per cent, which was paid at the meeting to those present. Checks were mailed to the absentees. After the directors held their annual meeting, the following officers were re-elected: President, W. A. Attaway; vice president, W. S. Stevens; cashier, W. W. Cox; assistant cashier, M. B. Burnett. It was announced at the directors' meeting that the stock had been sold at a most satisfactory rate during the past year.
DR. WILLIAMS' ANNUAL VISIT TO MEHARRY.
The Department of Surgery at the Meharry Medical College is attaining considerable dimensions in its scope and in its facilities and methods. The most modern facilities and up-to-date methods are employed in the practical work in Surgery and a competent corps of instructors in this branch is maintained.
At the had of the department is Dr. F. A. Stewart, a surgeon of distinction and rare ability and one who is strenuously laboring to advance this most important branch of study at Meharry.
During the past week Dr. Daniel H. Wlliams, of Chicago, held surgical clinics at Hubbard Hospital for the instruction of the students, and performed a large number of operations, which were of a very varied character. The patients were brought to the hospital by physicians of several outlying states, and they are all steadily improving.
In all these operations, Dr. Williams was very ably assisted by Dr. F. A. Stewart, Professor of Surgery; Dr. R. F. Bovd, Professor of Gynecology, and Dr. J. A. McMillan, Physician to the Hubbard Hospital. The Senior and Junior classes were in regular attendance at the operations, and were very efficiently instructed by Dr. Williams and his assistants. It is hardly necessary to discuss at length at this juncture the professional merits of Dr. Daniel H. Williams, so very well known is he, but it must be stated that his reputation as a surgeon extends throughout all America. At the close of the clinics, on Saturday afternoon, Dr. Williams left for his home, at Chicago. The senior and junior classes have contributed to forward him a tangible token of appreciation for the instruction received at his hands.
The department of Clinical Microscopy, under Dr. J. H. Holman, was kept very busy during the week, in determining diagnoses and tests on the cases intended for operation.
A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT.
When a Negro wakes up and finds himself at the head of institutions that have handled a million dollars annually, he must be aware of the fact that he occupies an enviable position and is in a class by himself, especially in the commercial world. There seems to be only one Negro in the United States who, through his own tact and resourcefulness, has gained this distinction unaided by philanthropic efforts. Nashville enjoys the distinction of having in her midst a man who is at the head of institutions whose business last year went something over a million dollars. Richard Henry Boyd, President of the One Cent Savings Bank, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing and Home Mission Boards, President of the Nashville Globe Publishing Company, President of the National Negro Doll Company, and President of the National Baptist Church Supply Company, is the man. These concerns, through their reports, which have just been compiled, prove conclusively that within the city of Nashville, living an unassuming life and spending his days advantageously to all concerned or to those who come in touch with him, is this one Negro, who, although born a slave, has on more than one occasion demonstrated what few men ever live to demonstrate. No one who has lived in Nashville and watched the success attained on every occasion and with every institution with which Dr. Boyd is connected will doubt that this splendid specimen of race leadership has fore sight, tact and ability not usually found in everyday life.
The Rev. Mr. Boyd left the city last week for a trip to Central America. Just before leaving, when told of the stupendous figures of one million dolars' worth of business that had been reaped by the institutions with which he is allied, there was not a variation of expression on his face; he would sot even discuss the matter, but changed the conversation to one which, to his way of thinking, was of more interest to the masses. He is the father of the slogan, "Negro dolls for Negro children," and originator of that unborn determination which has shown itself time and again and which was summed up in one utterance of his, that "Negroes could best write for Negroes," hence the birth of the National Baptist Publishing House.
The Doctor is the prime mover and sole instigator of the constructive ideas that have been brought to play, through which Negro churches can have every article of movable furniture within their edifices manufactured out and out by Negroes. In their Church Supply plant they make anything from a collection plate to the finest grade of church pews, so step by step he has stamped himself

indelibly upon the minds of the people of Nashville, and it appears that this impression is growing nationwide.
The Baptist denomination has looked to him to lead them out of many embarrassing positions when it comes to advocating their rights among printers and publishers of religious literature, and on each occasion, with undaunted courage, in an unassuming way he has led them safely. He is regarded by them as one of their safest and most beloved leaders. No one has to look beyond the gigantic plant operated at the corner of Locust and Market streets for a confirmation of the fact that he lives for his people, furnishing employment by which more than 200 are benefited each week.
BISHOP PHILLIPS AT WALDEN—
Y. M. C. A. MEETING.
There was a large attendance at the University service held at the Auditorium on Sunday morning, the 1st inst., when Bishop C. H. Phillips, of the C. M. E. Church, preached a very eloquent and most instructive sermon on "The Necessity and Efficacy of Ceaseless Prayer." The University choir, under Prof. I. Berry, was in attendance and sang some delightful pieces. A solo was also sung by Mr. H. Harvey Walker, a member of the Meharry Quartette.
At 3:30 p. m. on Sunday, the 11th inst., the Y. M. C. A. was addressed by Rev. J. H. Ellis, of Seay's M. E. Church. His subject was "A Manly Leader," from which he imparted to his auditors many a practical and useful lesson.
The Y. M. C. A. rendered its annual concert at Meharry Auditorium on Friday afternoon, the 9th inst., before a very large and representative audience. The program, which was very splendidly rendered, was an elaborate one—its various features being recitations, vocal solos, instrumental solos and selections by the Meharry Quartette and the Young Women's Glee Club of Walden University. The piano solo by Miss Hazel Lyman, of Walden University, drew forth applause, and Miss Alberta Tyree's recitation threw the audience into cheers that were both vociferous and protracted.
The Geo. W. Hubbard Hospital Association begs to tender through this medium their thanks to Messrs. F. D. Bradford, C. A. Hancock, G. A. Banks, J. S. Scott and the members of the Meharry Brass Band and of the Orchestra, for the very satisfactory manner in which they performed their respective parts in "The Adjuster", which was rendered at the Majestic Theater on the evening of February 2nd.

On to her husband's arm and told him that Kenon, the printer, had moved from East Nashville to 422 Codar street, in A. N. Johnson's Building, next to the New Majestic Theatre. I have added another press and am better prepared than ever to print anything from a visiting card to a large poster. I guarantee satisfaction, full count and to de-deliver work the minute that it is promised.
Thanking my friends for past favors and hoping a continuance in the future, I am
Your servant,
J. RALSTON KENAN.
