Tulane, who is cashier of the Branch of the Penny Savings Bank at Montgomery, and Principal Washington and Treasurer Logan. All of these were present At the meeting in the Chapel Thursday night, February 22nd, at which the Trustees and other guests were present, it was announced that Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, had accepted the position of Trustee in the place of Mr. George Foster Peabody of New York City, who, at his own request, was relieved, because of not being able to give the time necessary to the school. It was also announced that Mr. Emmett J. Scott, who, as Secretary to Principal Washington, has for a number of years borne a large share of the burden of the work of the SUBSCRIPTION, $1.50 A YEAR. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS TRI-STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY TRI-STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY ORGANIZED AT JACKSONVILLE, FLA. Alabama, Georgia and Florida Concerned—Elect Officers—Dr. Roman Honorary Member—Atlanta Gets Next Meeting. Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 22, 1912—There was launched in this city yesterday a Tri-State Medical Society, an organization of physicians from the states of Florida, Georgia and Alabama. The Association will meet bi-annually, and is for the purpose of bringing in closer touch the Negro physicians of the three states named in matters pertaining to the medical profession. There were sixty doctors present, and the meeting has been harmonious so far. It is expected that adjournment will be taken tomorrow, as it seems to be the opinion of all present that the three day session should constitute a meeting. The next place of meeting has already been selected, Atlanta, Ga., being the lucky city. The officers of this Association are Dr. S. B. Palmer, Atlanta, Ga., president; Dr. J. A. Kenney, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., secretary. This society will not in any way consist with the National Medical Association, but is more of a supplementary organization to the national body. The only outside visitor to the meeting ws Dr. C. V. Roman, of Nashville, Tenn., who was made an honorary member. Dr. Roman is a prominent specialist and a man of rare literary attainments. He is prominently mentioned for editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, and every endication points to his election at the meeting of the General Conference of than Church, which will convene in Kansas City, Mo. in May. On his return home Dr. Roman will make stops at Cordelle, Forsyth, Ga., Macon, Ga., Atlanta, Ga., and Chattanooga. Tenn. He was a prominent figure at the meeting of the Tri-State Medical Society, and in his characteristic way delivered one of his foreful addresses to the physicians. The Tri-State Medical Society promises to become one of the leading professional organizations in the country, and it is expected that the membership will greatly increase before the next biennial meeting. Jacksonville is leaving no stone unturned to make the initial meeting a success as far as this city is concerned, and on every hand the highest praise is being expressed by the visitors. school, has been elected Secretary of the Institute. Mr. Scott will however continue to serve Principal Washington in the same capacity. One of the most interesting features of the school work which the Northern guests had an opportunity of observing was a novel kind of rhetorical exercise held in the Chapel Thursday evening. Instead of the traditional essays and recitations which the announcement of rhetorical exercises had led the guests to expect, they found the stage of the Chapel fitted up with steam and electrical machinery and various kinds of apparatus used by the students in the shop, in the dairy and in the cooking department. A portion of the stage had been fitted up as a dining-room and kitchen with a kerosene oil range, and in this setting a young woman demonstrated to the students and guests of the school how to set a table and how to cook and serve a meal. The whole operation had been cleverly dramatized and was carried out amidst the applause of audience. The performance was especially admired by the men of the party. Another interesting feature of the rhetorical exercises was a demonstration of the method in which, a letter written by a student is collected by the post office department, stamped, put in the mail bags, carried to its destination and delivered. This demonstration was given by one of the students who is employed in the Government Institute Post Office. What made this demonstration all the more interesting was that after the student had described in a very interesting manner and in the greatest detail how the letter had been written, collected, canceled, distributed, put in the mail packet, carried to the train and thence to its destination at Clark University, Atlanta, Georgia, the writer took the liberty of opening the letter and reading its contents. Friday afternoon the two parties of guests—one from Chicago and the other from New York—united and went by special train to Atlanta, where they were the guests at dinner, Friday night, February 23rd, of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce. At that point the two parties separated again, one going North to Chicago and the other North and East to New York City. The present meeting of the Board was voted one of the most successful ones in the history of the Institute. Mrs. W. S. Ellington was slightly indisposed this week. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY MARCH 1, 1912. THE CASE OF NEGRO PYTHIANS NOW UP BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT Many Southern Men On the Bench Most of them Appointed by President Taft — Widespread Interest in the Case-Victory for Grand Order Earnestly Washington, Feb. 28.—The legal fight of the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias of Georgia, to prevent Negroes from using the terms "Knight of Pythias" for lodges in that state opened today before the supreme court of the United States, when briefs of arguments for the Negro association were filed. The Negroes lost in the supreme court of Georgia. The above is the news flashed over the wires from the city of Washington. Ten million black citizens of this country are awaiting with much anxiety the outcome of this suit. It involves millions of dollars worth of property and the safety of thousands of people. Tennessee Negroes are among those specifically concerned, for only recently the supreme court of this state rendered a decision against the State Grand Lodge. Their case will doubtless be decided at the same time; the Georgia case is, and in fact one case will decide that pending from the various states in the South. The supreme court of the United States now contains many men from the South, and it is that fact that causes many to be apprehensive less prejudice will creep in. But no credence can be attached to this fear, as the supreme court justices are sworn to do their full duty toward every citizen of our country. JOHN PATTERSON LOCKED UP AT POLICE STATION ON CHARGE OF MURDER-- SAYS ITS WAY AN AC- CIDENT During a struggle for the possession of a pistol Harry Howell was shot and killed Wednesday afternoon about 2 o'clock by John Patterson in front of Will Kelly's saloon, corner Eleventh avenue and Cedar street. Patterson was arrested by Special Officers Dawson and McCarver shortly after the shooting took place. He was charged with murder. According to Will Kelly, Howell's employer, the fight occurred on the sidewalk in front of his saloon. He heard the shot fired, and when he ran to the door to see what the trouble was, Howell rushed into the bar. Seeing that he was shot, two men who were standing near took the wounded man out on the sidewalk, where he died in a few minutes. Patterson made no attempt to get away, but calmly waited until the officers arrived. H. E. SHELTON DEAD: Mr. H. E. Shelton, a dairman, who was well known in this city, died Thursday morning at Boyd's Infirmary. It will be remembered that Mr. Shelton was injured some time ago on a N. C. & St. L. Railway pass is said the Negro patients are kept senger train. It was considered miraculous that Mr. Shelton survived the shock for any length of time, and that his death is not a surprise to those in position to know. When first injured Mr. Shelton was taken to Eve's Infirmary, where it in a stable with a concrete floor. It was in this building that Mr. Shelton is believed to have contracted a deep cold that he could never be relieved of. Mr. Shelton was the brother of W. C. T. C. and N. C. Shelton, and one sister, Susie Shelton. The family is well known in this city. THE SMITH-BROOKS PLAYERS NEXT The Majestic will offer to Nashville next week the celebrated Smith-Brooks Players. This is a stock company and comes highly recommended. The show will be here all of next week, and it is the plan of the management it is learned to have two performances each evening. Houston College Defeats Houston High School. Special to the Globe Special to the vole Houston, Texas, Feb. 24—At 3:30 Thursday afternoon the High School team of this city played a fast but going game with the Industrial School. The college boys put up eight or ten panels of picket fence, planted a bushel or two of potatoes, fertilized garden spots, took down some wire fence, cooked a good dinner, and prepared wood for the dormitories by 12 o'clock. At 3 o'clock they took off their overalls, donned the base ball suits, and in a very short while put the High School out of business with a score of 17 to 10. Umpire, Charles Grigsby. CONVENTION AND NOT HIM SAYS DR. GRIGGS IN RECENT REPLY No Issue Between Dr. Griggs and Dr. Morehouse—Does Not Anticipate Being Recalled—Labors Increased—Interest Becoming Widespread—Dr. Gilbert Writes Letter. To the Editor of the Nashville Globe: In an article appearing in your journal of February 16th, under the caption "Negro Baptists Must Go It Alone," pertaining to the proposed National Baptist Theological Seminary, among other things you say: "The assertio n leaked out somehow that the present Secretary of the Educational Board, Rev. S. E. Griggs, was going around misleading facts and that the Home Mission Society had never promised the $15,000. * * * 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." I beg to inform you and your readers that there is not the slightest kind of an issue between Dr. Morehouse and myself, but the issue is wholly between him and the National Baptist Convention. The National Baptist Convention claims that Dr. Morehouse did offer the money in question, and the Convention, through its Education Board, instructed me to so inform the Baptists of the country. For two years I have been obeying the command of the Convention and have been making the assertion in season and out of season. It has been nothing like a secret. If the claim is a false one it is our National Convention's false, not mine. The entire Baptist brotherhood understands that. Instead of being recalled because of our having made the assertion, nothing bu praise has come on all sides because of our tireless efforts to have the Convention meet the conditions imposed. The denial that the pledge was ever made, instead of decreasing my labors as Educational Secretary, rather increases them. Our great National Baptist Convention, be assured, will take no backward step, and the only effect will be an enlargement and broadening of our plans. Though the issue as to whether the promise was ever made is not between Dr. Morehouse and myself (although in the current issue of our National paper I take up the matter with him) I append hereto portions of a letter bearing on the matter from the eminent Dr. M. W. Gilbert formerly a pastor in this city, now the President of Selma University Very respectfully, SUTTON E. GRIGGS. Dr. Gilbert's Letter. MY DEAR BROTHER GRIGGS. " " I was surprised to learn through your letter that Dr. Morehouse has denied that he ever submitted to us the propositions on which our Educational Board has DR. GRIGGS IN THE CITY. The Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, author of "Wisdom's Call" and other books, was in the city for a couple of days this week. Various cities are following the example of Nashville and are co-operating with him in arranging for the presentation to the national authorities copies of "Wisdom's Call." Little Rock is the latest city to thus entertain him. He leaves the city for Florida this week, where the people are preparing to give him a warm greeting. The presentation at Washington will follow these entertainments by the different cities. Every Wednesday night the members of the Nashville Choral Society assemble at their meeting place and take up the work preparatory to fitting themselves for the work they have set out to do. The persistency of the directors and members bespeaks a great future for the Society and commands the respect of the public. It was learned that an abundance of new music will be distributed at the next meeting. Special efforts are being put forth now for the next concert, which will be given at St. John A. M. E. Church some time during this spring. BRUTES PLEAD NOT GUILTY SLAYERS OF PETTEGREW AND CHILDREN On Trial—Grand Jury. Indicts for Murder in First Degree—Panel of 150 Men Ordered—History of Decaturville, Tenn., Feb. 27.—The grand jury yesterday returned indictments against George Shelton and John Bailey, white, for the murder of Ben Pettigrew and his two children, Fred and Pearl. There are three indictments against each, an dthe charge is murder in the first degree. The parties were brought out of jail and put in a plea of not guilty, and the court set the trial for Thursday of this week and ordered a panel of 150 men. The history of this case is fresh in the minds of the people throughout the state, as it was one of the most diabolical murders ever heard of. Public sentiment is strongly against Bailey and Shelton, and it is believed that the men will be punished to the full extent of the law. Mr. Pettigrew was a prominent man in this community. He had lived here all of his life and was highly respected by all. He was quiet, unassuming and industrious, and it was not thought that anyone in this country would do him an injury. The high standing of the old man is the strongest evidence that the murderous deed had been premeditated, and that they killed the old man and his children for the sole purpose of robbery. The story advanced by one of the defendants that Mr. Pettigrew had in years past mistreated his sister is not generally believed, for those who knew him best cannot be made to believe that he would mistreat anyone, and to say that he mistreated a child is considered to be maliciously false. This case is being watched closely as it is not believed that the best people of the country sanction such deeds. MR. WM. CHAPMAN ADDRESSES THE YOUNG MEN'S LYCEUM AT WALDEN Thompson's Chapel of Walden University was the center of much interest on Friday, evening, the 23rd inst., when the Young Men's Lyceum of that institution rendered its fourteenth annual program, Mr. Wm. A. Chapman, of Miami, Fla., and a member of the Junior Medical Class of Meharry, is known as an orator of rare eloquence, his persuasive speech having several times been heard at public exercises of the university. The musical part of the program was excellent, there being several selections by the young men and women's Glee Club, and an instrumental solo by Miss Mary Hall, of the college department. The subject of the lecture was "The Nobility of Duty." This Mr. Chapman treated in a most scholarly manner, and won the aplause of the audience. He has on several occasions been honored with the oratorial badge, and has always proved himself worthy of the distinction. His class chose him as its representative to the Emancipation anniversary held at Mehairy Auditorium on January 1, 1911, when, with marked conspicuousness and with dazzling splendor, he shone in the orb of speakers of that eventful day. GUS EVANS HANDED THE WHITE CAPPERS A GOOD DOSE. Special to the Globe Hopkinsville, Ky., Feb. 28.—Bad feeling that has prevailed between the whites and blacks in the extreme southern portion of this country since the killing recently of Lee Jenkins a white storekeeper at Egaton, by Tom Tom Slaughter, culminated last night when six whiteappers took Gus Evans and Will Davie from their homes at Kennedy at about midnight for the purpose of whipping them. Mr. Evans met the white capers with a volley of lead, and as a consequence he was not whipped. Davie was not quite so fortunate. County Judge Knight, Sheriff Johnson and Deputy Sheriff Smith visited Kennedy in person, returning this afternoon and bringing Davie with them. As soon as the outrage was reported Circuit Judge Hanbery called the grand jury that is now in session into court and gave them special instructions to investigate this fully and if possible to return indictments. Davie went before the grand jury this afternoon. Davie says that he was made to get up and in his bare feet and night clothes he was taken a distance of nearly two miles and tied up to a tree and whipped with something he thinks was a broad strap. He says they charged him with taking too much about the killing of Jenkins and ordered him to leave the country, which he agreed to do. After releasing him they told him to run, which he did. He said the men were masked, and he repulsed evasively when asked if he could identify any of them. He is being kept in the tail tonight. After returning this afternoon Judge Knight said he did not fear any further trouble. He made a full investigation while at Kennedy, but TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No.9 NEGRO BOYS' CORN CLUB MR. BEN CARR PROPOSES TO HAVE ONE To Be Headquartered at State Normal Every Boy in Davidson County Can Join—Must Own at Least One Acre of Land—Mr. Carr Preparing to Begin Farming—Five Pairs of Mules—All the Latest Farm Implements. The latest move to come to light in the march of progress among the Negroes of Davidson County is the proposal of Mr. Ben Carr. Superintendent of Industries at the State Normal to organize a "Boys Corn Club" of the Negro boys of Davidson County. Every boy who owns one acre of land can become a member of the Club when it is organized, and Mr. Carr asks that the boys write him a letter at the State Normal stating their views on the matter. A letter addressed Mr. Ben Carr, Negro Normal College, Nashville, Tenn., will go directly to Mr. Carr. The move is one of the wisest and best made to the Negro boys of this county in many years, and will doubtless meet the hearty approval of all progressive Negroes, whether they are farmers or not, and the prediction is made that the boys club will soon be among the leading organizations in the county. Mr. Carr is getting things in shape to begin preparing the soil on the school farm for planting. When seen by a Globe representative he said he had just purchased a pair of the finest mules in the state and many implements for farming. He said he had everything in readiness and is merely waiting for the ground to thaw to begin operations. CAPTAIN YOUNG NOW A MAJOR IN U. S. ARMY. The U. S. Army Establishment has a new major "of color"—the only one now in service. Capt. Charles Young, whose long and useful career as a West Point student military instructor at Wilberforce, military attache at Portau-Prince, Haiti, soldier in Cuba, the Phillippines, on the Mexican border and at various posts in this country, is well-known to every follower of current history, has successfully passed the examination required, and is now a full fledged Major in the regular army. The test was given at Fort Riley, Kansas, before a board composed of veteran military tacticians. Major Young came out with flying colors. He calls this week for Monrovia, Liberia, to assume the duties of Military Attachie at the American Legation. One of his primary responsibilities will be the organization of a Liberian Constabulary. Major Young will be accompanied by three bright young college men who will bear military titles conferred by the Libarian government, and will draw handsome salaries, paid out of the Libarian custom collections, over which an American receiver-general will have jurisdiction. Dr. Wilson Ballard, of Louisville, Ky., will be a Major at $2,000 per annum and quarters; Dr. Arthur Brown, of Chicago, and Mr. Richard Newton, of Washington, D. C., will be captains at $1,600 per annum and quarters. These young men have been working hard, and because of the inspiration their recognition will bring to others of the race now struggling for opportunities to rise. Major and Mrs. Young are the guests of the Dickerson family at 1711 Eleventh street. Mrs. Young, a Californian by birth, will remain in Washington for the present, as she desires to see something of Washington and the East before leaving for foreign shores. The Youngs have been the recipients of much social attention during their stay here. MISS WAYTES AT PLEASANT GREEN. Miss A. L. T. Waytes spoke at Pleasant Green Baptist Church Sunday and Sunday night. At both services a large audience was present despite the inclement weather. MEHARRY ONE OUT OF TWO RECOGNIZED. Chicago, Feb. 28—The American Medical Association today decided to establish a branch of the association for Negro colleges, to include Meharry Medical college at Nashville, Tenn., to meet the requirements of the association. The association branch will also take in the Howard University, Washington, the only other institution for Negro students that is a member of the association. Dr. G. W. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry Medical College, is attending the meetings of the association. found nothing to justify further fears and says the leading citizens there agree with him in this.

FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1912. The Majestic Theater. The Negroes of Nashville have had opportunity this week to prove to the world whether or not their clamor for all these years for first-class theatrical accommodations has been been true or merely a superficial fancy. The Smart Set which was at the Majestic Theater from Monday until Thursday should command the best patronage of any community. This show has traveled extensively. It has not been in Nashville before because the white theater managers will not give the colored people decent accommodations; but now since the completion of the New Majestic this company can come here regularly, and it will come if the people will support it. What is true of this first-class show is true of others. No one has been heard to say a single word disparagingly of the Smart Set Company. Instead, on every hand the highest praise is heard; but the patronage has not been what was expected of Nashville. It was thought that every performance would draw a full house and especially at night; but instead there has not been a single crowded house at either of the six performances. Some have said that the prices are too high, but this show charges much higher prices in other cities than was charged in Nashville. Negroes here have been complaining for years about places of amusement where they could go, sit down in any seat in the house and feel that they are absolutely free to enjoy the evening's pleasure; but when they refuse to patronize such shows as the Smart Set, given in a theater erected and owned by a Negro and where Negroes have access to every part of the house, it does not appear that this complaining has been sincere. Things that are worth having cannot be secured for a penny, and if the Negroes of Nashville want a theater where they can go and be treated as people an witness performances by members of their race of a high order, they must make up their minds to pay for the same. Negroes have been known to pay a dollar to go in a peanut gallery in Nashville, and they murmured not a word, and it is asking too much of any man to invest his money in a building and then furnish high-class amusements for the people for 25 cents admission. True Negroes can not support such a play every week neither can the white people of this city; but it is reasonable to expect that the Negroes of Nashville will give a liberal support to a few first class shows during a theatrical season. There is no excuse now for Negroes going in peanut galleries to see plays. For the Smart Set show is by far superior to any show that has been put on in this city this season. We make this statement on the assertions of the people who have frequently visited the other theaters and who have also seen the Smart Set. They say the show at the Majestic is the best they have seen. We admit we are not in a position to make a comparison, having only seen one side of it; but knowing the reputation of the Smart Set Company, we have no hesitancy in saying that it ranks among the best on the stage today. The Globe has the utmost confidence in the people of Nashville and believe they will finally awaken to the sense of their duty and give a free patronage to this magnificent playhouse erected at an enormous expense by one of Nashville's leading Negro men. The National Negro Press Association at its last meeting in Little Rock, Ark., raised a big racket and shelved several of its original organizers, and hung out songs telling that great things would be done between the adjournment or that session and the convening of the next. Maybe great things have been done; if so, the officers of the association are very selfish. "My Hat's in the Ring." When ex-President Theodore Roosemade this remark in Cleveland a few days ago it was taken by his friends to mean that he had finally decided to break the long silence that has been up at Sagamore Hill, and those opposed to him accepted it as a signal to battle. And when he announced in Boston that he would accept the nomination for president if tendered him no one was surprised. His announcement has stirred the American nation as it has never been stirred before. For, of all men who have been spoken of for the presidency Mr. Roosevelt is by far the most impressive. He is that type of man that the people of the United States admire. It must be acknowledged that he is a world power, if such may be said of an individual, and he can be depended upon to do things in a hurry. The fight is on between Mr. Roosevelt and President Taft, with the odds in favor of the "Rough Rider." The South is clamoring for Taft, but the East, North and West are clamoring for Roosevelt. It is also clear that the border states are strongly for him. He stands a good chance to control Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri in the Convention. This strength combined with the three general sections named above makes it appear that Mr. Roosevelt will be nominated by the Republican National Convention. The next question is: can he be elected? We consider this as easily answered as the question of nomination. He is the strongest man, politically, in this country. He is a natural born diplomat and a tireless campaigner, and is able from this standpoint to make a better race than Taft. He will command the support of the Negroes in all parts or our common country, which Mr. Taft could not do. It is true that the Brownsville affair will be brought up, but it does not seem reasonable that one sin can outweigh a multiplecty of sins, and this one act is the only instance in which it can be said that Theodore Roosevelt gave the Negro a raw deal. When he said his hat was in the ring it meant that things would be lively from now until June. Mr. Roosevelt knows that the people of this country like just such a spirit; but he is not only capable of making a strenuous campaign, but is sane and after all conservative. Second-Class Postage. President Taft recently sent a message to Congress recommending that the rate on second-class postage be increased one hundred per cent. That is, he recommended that whereas second-class matter is now carried at one cent per pound, it be increased to two cents. His recommendation is based on the findings of Post Master General Hitchcock, and it goes without saying that the subject will cause a lively debate when it comes up for consideration. Every newspaper and magazine in the country is opposed to this increase; and Negro newspapers will be the greatest sufferers if this recommendation is put into effect. The dawn of light is just beginning to appear to the most of the Negro newspapers, and if they are forced to pay two cents per pound for postage many of them will be forced to suspend. It behooves every Negro newspaper publisher to get busy, and if the senator or congressman in the state in which his paper is published is not of the faith and order of the publisher of the paper, this is the time an effort should be put forth to bring about a reconciliation. It goes without saying that if the case is properly laid before the senators of the different states it will have its weight, and may be the recommendation can at least be stayed off for a time. Crutcher's New Store. For the first time in the history on Nashville the Negro citizens will on the 14th of this month have an opportunity to visit a furnishing store operated by a Negro man. Mr. D. W. Crutcher, a young man born and reared in this city, will throw open to the public a store that from the pains being taken in its equipment indicates that it will equat any store of its kind in the city. Every Negro in Nashville, and for that matter in all parts of the country, will hail with delight this new innovation. It shows that the young men of the race are thinking and that they are determined to put forth efforts along commercial lines. It further shows that they realize the weakness of any race that confines itself to professional pursuits. The Globe congratulates Mr. Crutcher on the undertaking and hopes for him a liberal patronage which will insure success. The Business Men's League of Nashville is out-distancing the ground hog. For the weather rodent only promises to stay in his hole six weeks at a time; but our business league makes it about eleven months out of twelve. The Republican County Convention tried its best to make all the colored brethren feel good at the meeting held last Saturday, but to no avail. Some colored republicans will kick anyhow. EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS. WE MUST WIN The Pythians are now standing at the doors of the United States Supreme Court ready to plead their cause. Within a few months, now, probably less time, before the bar of that tribunal will stand the best legal talent obtainable pleading our cause. No other case before that tribunal will effect as many persons, win or lose. In either event, let not our joy or sorrow go beyond reasonable bounds. We shall always be one united fraternity, win or lose, continuing the work of relief to the afflicted—The Pythian Monitor. CLIFTON NOTES. There was preaching at both churches Sunday, M. E. and M. B.

Therefore be it, resolved that we, the pastor and members of St. James Methodist Episcopal Church, highly apreciate the hat rack and that we are in sympathy with him in his deprivation of liberty and free citizenship, and that through his prayers and those of his friends he may be liberated from the bondage of sin and the bondage of confinement.

The "Birthday Party" at the M. E. Church on the 21st was a success, although it was a very disagreeable evening. One of the most entertaining musical program of the season was given last Friday evening by the young men, Messrs. Cowan, Owen, and the Whiteside brothers. They were assisted by Prof. T. T. Ransom, who is one of the best singers in the town. Prof. Ransom's solos always make a hit. The concert was given at the A. M. E. Church. Probably the grandest public entertainment that has been witnessed by the Shelbyville people in many a day, produced by local talent, took place last Tuesday night at the city Auditorium, by Turner Normal students. It was the drama, "Queen Esther." More than fifty people constituted the company. Miss Cloe Luchann, the part of "Esther," quitted herself grandly. Mr. B. A. J. Jones, as King Ahasuerus, made some clever hits. The guests at Queen Vashti'i banquet was a display of rich costumes, and flashing jewelry of the ladies, as well as the gorgeous paraphernalia of the gentlemen constituting the noblemen, princes and guards, were a spectacle king to be remembered. Prince Human's downfall, and the elevation of Malecal, were cleverly enacted by Mr. Phillip W. Jordan, as Haman, and Mr. Emmett Campbell, as Mordecal. The Persian Dancers, who danced before the queen, was a most pleasing feature of the play. The students will produce the play of "Jepthahh's Daughter," again this spring, probably during Commencement week. This play was produced at one time by the students, and it has been called for a number of times since. Probably Misses Madge Boddle and Sallie Commons will have charge of the cantata. Miss Ruth B. Allison, who recently returned to Turner Normal, took the place of Miss Estella Batchelor in the play of Queen Esther, Tuesday night. Miss Allison played the part of Haman's wife. She had only a few days to commit her part, but she was one of the stars of the evening. She seemed to be more at home on the stage than any one who appeared. Mrs. Tennie Murray has been confined to her bed for several days. Mrs. Mary Buchanan, her daughter from Nashville, and is stopping with her mother. The very disagreecab weather on last Sunday, prevented the quarterly meeting at the A. M. E. Church from being a great success. Drs. Gray and Norman were visitors at Turner Normal last Monday. CLARKSVILLE NOTES CLARKSVILLE NOTES. The ladies of the Magnolia Winzula Club of A. M. E. Zion Church were entertained on Monday evening, February 19, 1912, at the residence of Mrs. Gus Brown.

Terrell, Mrs. Perille Foston, Secretary. Despite the fact of the cloudy day, there was a large gathering at the Fifth Ward Church Sunday. Rev. Gardner, who has not been present before this winter, dropped in, and by the request of the pastor, conducted the services. The pastor and members of the Fifth Ward Church have launched a $1,200 rally. The Crescent Circle will have their anniversary service the second Sunday in March. The pastor has been delivering blueboard addresses this winter in the B. Y. P. U., which addresses have had a telling effect with both the old and young. Last week was a high week in the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. The occasion was the celebration of the fourth anniversary of the pastorate of Rev. E. M. Seymour. These services began Tuesday night and ended Sunday night. The different ones who appeared on the program seemed to have been at their best. They reflected credit upon themselves and the occasion. The program consisted of music by the different choirs of the city, well prepared papers, and addresses. Rev. Geo L. Harris, pastor of the Fifth Ward Baptist Church, preached the anniversary sermon, to an appreciative audience. Despite the fact that the rain was falling in torrents, the people came just the same.

As a mirth tantalizer of the continuous performance variety, The "Smart Set," in its new musical comedy, "The Mayor of New Town," the play this week at the New Majestic, is hard to excel. Each night the theater was filled with audiences which began to laugh almost before the play began and kept it up to the end, save for the periods of rest. Elder Toots, who wants a new church, with his constant insistence that "it is more blessed to give than to receive," and his awkward and pro- 1817 Scovel street ..... 1288 Oarray street ..... 538 Samsey street ..... 67 Maple street ..... 707 Lee avenue ..... Meharry Medical College Seventh avenue, South ..... 124 Webster street ..... 214 Eighth street ..... 20 North Hill mischacious manner of soliciting donations, was a source of fun to the audience. Samatha Knowtall, the suffregette, made herself obnoxious to the constable, Elder Major and Shoemaker, by her voiceless declamations of women's rights and man's deficiencies. Major Jinks, whose war record was doubted, was always "on the spot" and ready for duv, but always too late. Salem Tust Whitney, the black face comedian, proved to be a laugh producer, and in the season's latest comedy kept the audience in continual uprair throughout the entire performance. The scene of the play was laid in the West, and the powerful story which has been constructed makes a strong impression. Pedro Manual, a Mexican of unquestionable character, who has made love to Pocahontas, an Indian Princess, renounces his love for her and declares that he loves Marie Vance, who ridicules him, and he decides to employ foul means. Pocahontas then resolves to kill him and thus avenge herself. In the meantime, Pedro, with the assistance of members of his tribe, carries out his feudish design by stealing Marie off in the stillness of the night. Sam Jackson, Marie's original lover, with a detachment of soldiers, makes a search and finds her place of concealment. A fight ensues, in which Pedro and his Indians are all put to death, and Marie is rescued and restored to her lover, Sam. Thus Pocahontas gets her revenge. Sunday was a rainy day and only a few people were out. Miss Vera Moss and Mr. Wiley Oliver were married Sunday, February 25th, at the home of her mother Mrs. Moss, Rev. Coleman officiating.

Absolutely nothing definite can be Stated with regard to the quantity of food a certain number of fowls should have. Different breeds and different feeds and different climates make a vast difference in the quantity of food that is necessary or desired. ‘There is such a thing as feedmg too much, and there {s also donger of feeding too little. ‘The difference between a fowl that is fed too much and a fowl that is fed too /little can only be Tearied from éxperience, ‘The ‘most effective and economical method of feeding for both eggs and meat pro- duction is to keep the fowls slightly hungry during the day, never allow: ing the crop to become completely filled until just about time for them to go to roost. Keeping them busy at all times, and sending them to bed With crops well led wih 8 large va riety of feeds is the keyhote to suc- cessful feeding. There are two sys- tems of feeding poultry, the dry and th ewet. The dry system {s most generally used in this country, be- cause it is a great saving of labor, and it is not so Hable to cause bowel disorders, which often result in feed- ing wet or sloppy mashes. On city lots, and in specialized poultry farm- ing, where fowls are kept closely con. fined, it is necessary to feed a. per. fectly balanced ration, but on large ranges, where fowls get plenty of ex- ercise, they may be kept’ in good con- dition with a reasonable distribution of foods. Fowls need a variety. No ‘one grain fed alone is good. When all grains are mixed in proper pro- portion it is good for the laying hens. Corn is too fattening when fed to poultry alone in close confinement, but where the fowls get plenty of ex- ercise and secure a variety of grains, animal matter and green stuff, corn can be fed to advantage. ‘Two parts cracked corn, three parts wheat and one part oats, rye or bar- Jey, makes a good feed given in the above proportions, In making up grain rations the properties of the other foods—animal and vegetable— should not be overlooked. Grain phould always be fed, and especially where fowls are kept in close con- fnement, in a litter of some kind, so that the birds will have to scratch and hunt to get at it. It is a good plan to Keep part of the floor at least, of the poultry house or scratching ‘pen, if you have provided one, covered to a depth of one foot or more with straw, hay, dry leaves, or some other loose material. Nothing is better for the fowls 1 n winter, or will keep them in better condition than plenty of good exercise, which they will get hunting for the grain in the straw. Most of the commercial feeds sold by the poultry supply houses are good and reliable. They are manufactured for any and every purpose, and for fowls of any and all ages. These feeds cost very little more than it does for une to buy his feedstuffs and to his own mixing, In feeding refuse from the table do not take pieces of stale bread. potato peelings, meat scraps, and mix them up with hot water and feed this wet, sloppy mess to the birds, as some peo- ple do. It is all right to feed the table scraps, but in so doing run them through a chopper, add a little corn meal, wheat bran, charcoal, pep- per and salt, pour a little warm wa- ter over it, then squeeze dry as posst- ble, and don't feed too heavy on It. Charcoal is splendid for the digestion and bowels. Tt can be purchased at any supply store in the ground form at a few cents per pound, and should ve kept before the birds at ail times, Grit should always be kept before the fowls, it ts very essential, while oyster shell, which is the chief com- ponent of the egg shell, should al- ways be before them also. A good dry mash for the leying stock can be made by using five parts corn meal, one part oat meal, ono part alfalfa meal, two parts of bran and five parts beef scraps. Be sure the beef scraps are fresh and sweet and not spoiled. This mash can be fed in a hopper. Always feed the heavy meal of grain mixture at night Just be fore the fowls go to roost. Keer fresh water constantly before the fowls, and be sure that it is always fresh and the vessels that contain the water are kept clean, This is a very important item. In summer you must watch the drinking vessels closely and in winter don't allow them to cake up witn ice, The birds must have ter. Aiivte raw chopped beet fed abou twice a week is good. Don't throw the milk away, curdle it and feed tc the birds. The kind of green or ves etable feeding for winter 1s probably immaterial, provided the fowls relish it, Cabbage, beets, turnips, apples, potatoes, pumpkins, ete,, ate all good for wiater feeding. Rye is a good crop the late fall, if you have a con venient place to plant it. Green feed given in winter {s a most economical method of feeding, because it aids digestion, reduces the cost of feeding, and keeps the hens healthy all win ter. Where fowls are kept in close confinement, sprouted oats will go a long way toward solving the green food problem, as the birds like the sprouts better than any other kind of green stuff that can be supplied ‘The ordinary feed bill can be consid erably reduced by the use of this method. In preparing the feed first soak the cats: for twenty-four hours in a pail or tub, then put in a box with holes bored in the bottom, whch will allow the water to drain off. If necessary, you can put the gran in different boxes, as it should not be more thar three or four inches deep for good re sults. Lay several thicknesses of cloth or burlap bags over the grain to keep it from drying out, sprinkle with warm water eac h morning and stir, in a few days the grain will com mence to germinate and will be ready to, feed. A cellar or comparatively warm room will answer n which to sprout tthe oats-Southern Poultry Magazine. FRESH EGGS. ‘The dest logislation against. stale eggs is for the individual to buy only fresh stock and return the old. It fs just a seasy to tell a fresh egg as @ sound apple or sweet milk, Leave an egg in a nest for twelve or twenty- four hours to be kept warm by some broody hen, and {t is no longer fresh, The process of incubation will tell the story, for it will have commenced. A fresh egg carries the unmistakable ‘evidence on the surface of the shell. ‘It tocks as though coated with some rough preparation, which exposed to ‘the air, rapidly disappears, Eggs may not be stale when the shell be- ‘comes emooth, but {f there is any ap- pearance of a glassy surface, or the thickness of the shell seems uneven, beware of the inward strength. The better way is to establish a market for absolutely fresh eggs and cul- tivate the customer to ann appreci- atio nof the same. There is as much atference between an egg one day and one week old as there is between a mealy and a soggy potato. Once fix in the mind of your customer the worth of fresh eggs and he wil! never be content with anything else more than this. His taste being aroused to something choice, he 1s willing to pay for same. ‘There are dimes and dollars for him who puts his eggs on the custome-’s table before the first blush has departed.—Exchange. ete GROWTH OF THE POULTRY INDUSTRY_ ‘There never was a better opportu- nity to engage in poultry keeping. Eggs and poultry never commanded better prices than now. Thousands NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1912. of eggs are being imported and the population is steadily increasing. Surely he who produces the egg: must receive the profits, for, “as ye sow so shall ye reap.” Land can be purchased reasonably, and there is no excuse, why @ person with limited means*cannot engage in the poultry business, and by careful application and study make a good living from the business, Many laboring men— carpenters, masons, engineers, clerks professional men—lawyers, minis- ters, doctors—are leaving the citios and going to the farms, Poultry keeping, which is both a pleasant and profitable occupation, is the cause of many giving up city life for the dbuntry, ‘The reason 1s that when over a person has a plot of ground. in the city or in the suburbs, he will be found. keeping a few chickens, study- ing their needs and trying to learn how to make the most profit out of them. If he solves the problem sat- Isfactory, he will commence to yearn fer larger opportunities in poul- try keeping, and naturally and logi- cally a farm presents itself as the means of satsfying that longng—Ex- change, gee TO THE FARMERS OF TENNES- SEE. By Capt. T. F. Peck, Commissioner of Anricufture. | T want to talk to the boys this week about their future work. I want to ask them if they have not already made up their minds and settled upon their life's work, to let me tell them of an opportunity open to them if they want to succeed and mean to suc- ceed and are willing to work for suc- cece and willing to put energy and intelligence in their work. I want to tell them that I am continually catled upon by successful business men who are weelthy who have bought fine farms end find it difficult to find com- petent farm managers to etake the farms and manage them successfully. ‘They (el! me their farms are fertile, they furnish good equipment, but ‘their managers get into a rut, they do not look after details, and they are getting no profit out of the farm, they cannot have the farms kept attract- ive, the leaks and mismanagement take all the profit. They tell me that they know of farmers whose land is not as fertile naturally as theirs, not So much spent for equipment, and yet those farms because of good manage- ment are profitable to thelr owners, They cay that they are willing t opay liberally for managers who make good. ‘There are thousands of such positions open today and would be more if there were assurance of com- petent men to fill them. Boys, do you seen anything in this for you? Do you want to engage in a work that is the foundation of all industries? Tn a work that is a creator of wealth where no one {s made poorer by your prosperity? An industry that is in onder countries considered the most honorable and will be so considered in this country when our brainy young men take hold of it? If you do, 1 would suggest that yo u make up your ‘minds to be farmers, Not the slipshed, happy-go-lucky farmers we see s0 much evidence of, not the kind of farmer who thinks that farming does not require intellgence, but farmers who know how to build up soll fertil- {ty, who know how to select crops for their markets, how to plant, how to cultivate and market thelr crops, how to economize time to do things at the right time, the value of live stock on the farm, Ho wto select and raise it in short, men who make the same thorough preparation for the fr work the expert machinist or electrician makes for his. Men who think about thelr work and profit by all that has been discovered concerning it, When young men fit themselves to make Sood, their services will be in demand & t prices that will allow them to save enough to become landowners them- selves, Young men, practically all other professions are overcrowded. ‘This is your opportunity to make good for yourself, to benefit your country and to place the farming industry on the plane it should occupy. Do not ‘think you are qualifying for a work that 1s unpopular. ‘The educational institutions of the country realize the importance of agricultural educa- tion, and are getting ready to meet the ‘demands of the country. If you want to take up a work that will prove remunerative in a financial way, I want to urge upon you to take advan- tage of the opportunity open to you. Do not expect to step into this work without preparation. You could not hope to get a position as manager of a railroad, a manufacturing plant or a big business house without special trainlag. Neither can you hope to take up this character of work without the same thorough training, [but wit bit you can command sal ary commensurate to your worth. The farmers who are succeeding today are the farmers who think about their work end learn all they can about it. If you are looking for an opportunity, I have pointed it out to you. Have you the capacity to grasp while it is open to you? ‘The spring season will goon be here and T would ask the farmers if they are taking advantage of the time they cannot plow to get their fences in or der, their manure spread, their repair. ing done, their fuel prepared so that when field work does open that you will not have to stop to do such work’ Are you tools all put in good condi. tion, is your harness in good repair’ |T know ‘any number of farmers wh¢ jnever think of such details until thei regular fleld season opens and they have to lose valuable time to de | things that could have ebeen done | better at another time, and for that |reagon they are always behind time | with their work. I hope, brother farmer this is not your case, Now, brother farmer, while you are |planning your crops for the coming year, don’t you think you can select a five or a ten-acre plot tha t you can |put in shape to be really profitable |to you? If you have such a field and lit is in wheat or rye, suppose you | agree when the crop gets to the point | where t will give you the most greet |manure you turn it under and pre |pare the ground for peas or soy beans, and when they are right fo turning under, do go, Jetting a sub- {Soil follow in the furrow of your turning plow. Give the land a top [dressing of barnyard manure and pulverized limestone, seed to rye, and [turn under noxt spring. ‘Then proper ly prepare and plant in corn, with good cultivation you will make a crop that will count, CENTERVILLE NOTES.

I suppose it is on account ‘of misuse, inordinate waste of ener- gies and strength, hence men must get together and consider some things which may be touching, but nevertheless they must come out. “The Prophet Hosea, has said, “My people are destroyed for the sack of knowledge,” and that applies to this age and to this people, If that is the cause, then young men get knowledge, and get understand- ing. Call a halt to your wild career, to the sowing of wild oats, and be- come strong and healthy like your fathers, giving to the world strong healthy children. ‘The future of the race is in your hands. What are you going to do with it?” At this point, Dr. Stewart turned attention to the things which repre- ented death. It was a heart to heart ‘alk to men, and they took it in.
