NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VII. CONDITIONS IN PANAMA Vol. VII. ATTRACTING ATTENTION OF LEADERS Report of Dr. Boyd Stirs Hornets Nest Strong Protest Will be Made to State Department Discriminations Suen as Never Seen in This Country—Outrageous Practices Must Stop. The serial story being run in the Globe treating of the trip of Dr. R. H. Boyd to Panama and Costa Rica is attracting wide-spread attention. Some conditions that continue in the Canal Zone as witnessed by Dr. Boyd are worse than any to be found in any of the States. It was not generally known by Negroes in this country that such discrimination was in any possession of the United States, but the integrity of Dr. Boyd is not questioned. People of the country accept his version of the situation readily. Leading men throughout the country are much surprised at what they have learned, as steps are being taken to present the case before the administration in a strong protest against the outrageous discriminations that are being perpetrated against the Negroes in Panama. By reading the story as told by Dr. Boyd it will be seen that these conditions obtain only on the territory owned by the United States, and that the black people there are discriminated against in every way. This matter will be taken up at once with the State Department. It is known that at the same time Dr. Boyd was on the Zone, Secretary Knox was visiting countries in Central America and is compelled to know the situation as complained of by Dr. Boyd. He will be in a position to know first-handed himself and it is believed that great changes will be made in way the affairs are conducted in Panama. The most startling discrimination is the manner in which the post office is conducted, in that separate rooms are had where the white and blacks get their malls. This is the only place under the flag of the United States where such a thing is done and it is believed that the protest that will be made to the State Department will effect the renovation of this evil on the Canal Zone. SUMMER SCHOOL FOR TENNESSEE. No announcement has as yet been made about the location of the Summer Normal School for Negroes in the state of Tennessee. Last year there was one in each grand division of the state. In fact for the past few years it has been the custom of the state education board to so arrange these schools that the three divisions would be equally benefited getting their instructors from all over the state. However, some anticipation of a general summer school has been indulged in, especially since the announcement was made that the State Agricultural and Mechanical Normal College, located in Centennial Avenue, would be sufficiently ready to entertain such a gathering. When Prof. Hale was in the city some time ago, he expressed an opinion to a Globe representative that a summer school would in all probability be held, and from what has been picked up here and there, it has been taken to mean that the state proposes to inaugurate the State Normal School work by holding a general summer school in this city for the entire Negro population of Tennessee. Especially is this idea gaining ground since it was announced from educational headquarters that the summer Normal would be unusually light this year. So on this account, and on account of the central location of Nashville with the excellent improvements, accommodations and facilities that will be offered at the State Normal, it was definitely thought and is still hoped that if but one Normal or Summer School is to be conducted, that it will be held at the State Normal School, so that every teacher in the old volunteer state who desires to, can inspect the grounds and buildings of what promises to be one of the best institutions in the Southland. A Globe reporter called upon Mr. Ben Carr, the superintendent of agriculture, and asked him if he knew anything about the general summer school to be held at the Normal. He replied that he would be very glad to entertain any of the teachers who wanted to get a good idea of raising corn, cotton potatoes, beans, peas, and who wanted to know something of stock raising, as the summer would be his busy season. The farm is in fine condition, stated Mr. Carr, and he further stated to the Globe reporter that the literary matter connected with the school was in the hands of Prof. Hale, the president, and Prof. White, Dean of the school. ```markdown ``` NASHVILLE GLOBE. SUBSCRIPTION, $1.50 A YEAR. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. ASSEMBLE IN SELMA IN ANNUAL SESSION Gathering of Educators of the State Opening Session Brilliant—Welcome to City Most Hearty—Outlook for Great Meeting Bright— Many Prominent Visitors Present. Selma, Ala., April 4—Educators from every section of the state are in the city to-day for the opening of the 31st annual session of the Alabama State Teachers' Association, which will close Friday. The cordial reception given to the hundreds of teachers from every crossroad, hamlet, village and city was a credit to Selma, one of the most aristocratic towns in Alabama. The committee having charge of the entertainment had prepared elaborate occasions. Every incoming train brought delegates, showing the amount of interest in the coming meeting. It was said by the entertainment committee and confirmed by Prof. W. S. Buchanan, the corresponding secretary of the Association, that fifteen hundred teachers would be in attendance, which will eclipse the meeting held last year at Huntsville. Prof. G. W. Trenholm, the president, was optimistic to-day, when seen by a Globe representative, concerning the successful meeting that is to be held. The program proper opened to-night at the First Baptist Church. Standing room was at a premium. The citizens turned from their work to the Association. At eight o'clock the formal opening of the 31st Annual Session passed into history. Rev. F. R. Mallard led in the devotion, while the welcome address on the behalf of schools was delivered by Mrs. Archer; on behalf of the ministers, by Prof. Smith, and on behalf of the Board of Education, and on behalf of the Superintendent Arthur F. Harmon. The response was made by Prof. G. A. Payne, president of Miles Memorial College. Following this Hon. H. J. Willingham, State Superintendent of Education, was given a tremendous ovation upon his address. The closing of the night session and no doubt the principal feature, was the annual address of Prof. Trenholm. On to-morrow morning the program will be taken up as outlined and will continue through the day. The round tables for rural schools, grammar and high schools, colleges and normals, presidents and principals, kindergarten and primary, basketry and raffa work, will be carried out for two days, while the general session on Thursday night is to be held at Brown Chapel A. M. E. Church. The business session is to be held in the chapel of Selma University. One of the features of this meeting will be the address delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, of Tuskegee. Prominent among the workers here is Prof. J. R. E. Lee, principal of the Academic Department of Tuskegee. The local committee has been very busy in arranging for every detail of the entertainment. TURNER NORMAL COLLEGE Shelbyville, Tenn., April 3—Dr. J. A. Jones returned last Thursday from Chicago, where he went to visit the bedside of his dying mother, who died in that city Sunday, March 24th. Mrs. Jones was a native of Tennessee, where she spent the greater part of her life. She reared a large family of children in Nashville, where she resided for many years. She moved to Chicago several years ago, where she lived with the children till the day of her death. The halls and campus of Turner Normal College are now vocal with song and oratory among the students, who are getting ready for the commencement, which takes place May 1st. One of the big features of the commencement will be the rendition of the beautiful cantata "Jepitha's Daughter." This will take place as a special feature May 1st at the Auditorium, following the commencement exercises. It will be under the direction of Miss Madge C. Boddie. Miss Mabel McKay returned last Monday to her post of duty, after an absence of two or three weeks in Nashville, where she went on account of the illness of her brother. Dr. J. A. Jones made a trip to Chattanooga last Saturday to assist ir. a grand rally at Rev Chapel A. M. E. Church, of which Rev J. H. Smith is pastor. He preached in the morning at the church and delivered an address at the auditorium in the afternoon to a crowded house. Ground-breaking for the new girls' dormitory is expected to take place on the campus of Turner College during commencement week, at which time many of the trustees are expected to be present. The English graduating class consists of twenty-three persons. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY APRIL 5, 1912. Senator Robert Love Taylor No More [Picture of a man with a bald head and a mustache, wearing a suit and a tie.] THE LATE SENATOR ROBERT L. TAYLOR THE "APOSTLE OF SUN- SHINE." Was Three Times Governor Tennessee Bowed in Sorrow—Her First Citizen Was Loved by All Never Forgot His Simple Life on the Farm—Statesman, Lecturer, Author. 1850—Born in Happy Valley, Carter County, July 31. 1875—Read law under Judge Samuel Kirkpatrick at Jonesboro. 1878—Admitted to the bar and practiced law at Jonesboro. Later at Johnson City and Chattanooga. THE LATE SENATOR 1879—Married Miss Sarah L. Baird of Asheville, N. C. 1879-81—Member of Forty-sixth Congress from First District, defeating Maj. A. H. Pettibone. 1884—Presidential elector state-at-large. 1885-87—Pension agent at Knoxville. 1886—Elected Governor of Tennessee first time, defeating his brother, Alfred A., Republican nominee, in the most sensational canvass in the history of the State. It is known as the "War of the Roses." 1888—Re-elected Governor. 1890—Commenced his career on lecture platform. 1896—Elected Governor for the third time. 1905—Founded the Bob Taylor Magazine. 1906—Elected to United States Senate, defeating E. W. Carmack. 1910—Democratic nominee for Governor. Defeated by Ben W. Hooper, Republican. Nashville, Gov. Taylor's loved capital, and the scene of so many of the famous events of his public life, was saddened Sunday morning by the news of his death, received in an extra edition of the Democrat, a local daily paper, that was issued on the streets within five minutes after the flash came from Washington announcing the end. Throughout the city the manifestations of deep sorrow and the tributes to the memory of Tennessee's first citizen were sincere and impressive. Among those interested in the ways of politics, there was a great interest, heightened by consideration of the possibilities in the list of those mentioned for appointment to the vacancy by Gov. Hooper, but among the average citizens, and in every one of the humbler homes, was the sense of irreparable personal loss—the loss of a personal friend whose great heart and generous soul and eloquent tongue had so often cheered his people and the sunshine of whose smiles and laughter had brightened the lives and homes of the unnumbered masses of his fellow citizens. In every public gathering place and on the streets were heard expres- sions of sorrow and grief. Those who had watched his political career for years related to one another, and to those gathered about them, anecdotes of the senator's life as they had witnessed its course in the political field and on the public platform; and those who had not been so close personally to Tennessee's most popular citizen were quick to remember some of the brightest and most eloquent paragraphs of his lectures and public addresses. Negroes of Tennessee know they have lost a friend, and Carter to Shelby there are sad hearts in which memories dwel of some kind deed done by this big-hearted man while serving as chief executive of this state. He was a faithful servant of his people and never tired in the performance of a duty. As a democrat he was always straight or regular as the term may be used, and on more than one occasion his party has called him to save the day. R. ROBERT L. TAYLOR. Entry Into Politics. In 1878, when Democrats were looking in vain for a young man to lead the hosts to victory in the First District, all eyes turned to Bob Taylor, who was then just beginning his practice at the Jonesboro bar. The district usually returned a Republican majority of 5,000 votes and Democrats of ordinary courage dared not make the race. But Bob Taylor made it and won. Because Alf Taylor was considered to have been eucled out of the nomination in the Republican Convention the eyes of the Democratic Convention were turned to his young Democratic brother. It was a race never to be gogotten. Against young Taylor as the Democratic nominee the Republicans had already placed in the field Maj. A. H. Pettibone, one of their strongest contenders to political honors. Pettibone drove over the district in a fine carriage drawn by two fine horses. Taylor canvassed the hill's and hollows astride a little roan stallion, old and scrubby. He wore a slouch hat and rough clothes and ever present under his arm were his "fiddle and the bow." He was heralded everywhere as the young Knight from Happy Valley. The days were spent in joint debate with his opponent. The nights were spent in fun and frolic at the country dances, candy pullings and parties. Bob always played the fiddle. In debate Pettibone was grave, serious and dignified. Taylor was ludicrous and humorous. Pettibone would issue the challenge: "Now come to judgment, Robert, while I pin you to the wall." The Knight of Happy Valley would reply: (Continued on Page 7) ANNUAL EASTER SERVICES OF COMPANY O. UNITASCO COMPANY G UNATTACHED. Company G unattached will hold their annual Easter sermon at Salem A.

Great Crowds Pay to Homage Prelate Express Appreciation of Eight Years Labor—A. M. E. Church Scene of Notable Event—All Day Sunday and Monday Night Festivi- Special to the Globe. Dallas, Tex., March 28.—Never before in the history of Dallas has such enthusiasm, extensive preparation and deserved honor awaited the coming of any man as that which was accorded Bishop Evans Tyre, Presiding Bishop of the Tenth Episcopal District and Temporary Bishop of the First Episcopal District. The plans for his entertainment were in the hands of the Young Men's Progressive League of the Bethel A. M. E. Church. Sunday morning he spoke at historic Bethe', Rev. C. W. Abington, pastor, his subject being "The Witness of the Spirit." This is a subject peculiarly fitted to the Bishop, as he has always been styled a gospel preacher. It was only a matter of a few moments before other spirits together with his spirit were one in testifying to the witness of the Holy Spir . Bethel Church was on fire. During the afternoon the Bishop was guest of honor at a Nashville dinner. Seated with him were Dr. G. W. White, Dr. and Mrs. A. H. Dyson, Rev- and Mrs. Abbington and Mother Abbington. Bishop Tyre was the guest of St. James Church for the evening service, at which Rev. M. A. Wright is pastor. His subject at this meeting was "Let brotherly love continue." The effort was a repetition of the success during the morning service and a hundred other hearts were quick ened by the power of the gospel revealed to them by God's servant. EXPOSITION BILL PASSED SEN ATE. Special to the Globe. Washington, D. C., April 2.—The Senate Bill appropriating two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to aid in the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Emancipation of the slaves passed the Senate today with little opposition. This appropriation if concurred in by the lower House will assure the holding of the much-talked of exposition in 1913. It is expected that the House will pass the measure in a few days and it is believed that President Taff will affix his signature to it. It is passes the Lower House in the form that it passed the Senate it will be far in excess of what was originally asked; but will not be too much for an undertaking. It was doubtless realized by the Senate Committee that the amount asked for by the original promoters would be sufficient to make a creditable showing, and of their own volition, feeling as they did that the Negroes of the United States merited more than asked for, they raised the amount to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Since the matter was first mentioned a great deal has been said as to where the celebration should be held. Nashville is making a strong bid and it is believed that the exposition will be held in Tennessee's capital if it goes through. Nashville offers many advantages to such an enterprise and will do more to sustain it than any other city in the South. MR. SANDERS, OF SOUTH CAROLINA. Mr. Wm. W. Sanders, formerly of Columbia, S. C., is in the city. When seen by a Globe representative he stated he was here in answer to a summons which bears the nature of an appointment as local secretary. It was understood from what he stated that he will be permanently located in the city, but he knew nothing of his headquarters except that it would be in some place in Nashville. Mr. McGill, general secretary of the Nashville Y. M. C. A. work was not seen by the reporter, but it was known that Mr. Sanders and Prof. Watson, who met Mr. Sanders here, held a conference Monday and TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No.14 FIRST ANNUAL SESSION TENNESSEE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION. Held In This City During the Week Opening Session at Pearl High School —Governor Hooper and Mayor Howse Deliver Addresses— Every Speaker in Brilliant Mood—President's Address. The first annual session of the Colored Teachers' Association of Middle Tennessee convened at Pearl High School Thursday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The meeting was called to order by Prof. J. B. Batte, president. A large number of teachers had assembled from all sections of Middle Tennessee, and it was evident from the outset that the meeting would be profitable and full of interest. The following program was carried out at the evening session: Welcome on behalf of the State 'y Governor B. W. Hooper was read by Secretary of State Taylor, as the Governor was confined to his room. He spoke in brief of the importance of teaching, and encouraged those present to put forth their best efforts to train the young minds. Mayor Howse was out of the city, and therefore could not be present. Dr. C. V. Roman, the eminent specialist and editor of the National Medical Journal, responded to the welcome on behalf of the citizens. Dr. Roman was as usual full of wit and humor, and at the same time his words were philosophical and went home to all who heard him. Dr. Ellington, pastor or the First Baptist Church, welcomed the teachers on behalf of the ministers, and in well-chosen language he showed how closely related is the minister to the teachers, and urged his hearers to teach the children in their charge Christian living as well as mathematics, grammar, etc. Dr. J. P. Crawford, the supervisor of public schools of the city, delivered and the welcome address on behalf of the teachers. He is a ready speaker and was at his best on this occasion. He told of the progress of the public schools in this city and pictured a bright future for the future of the public school system of Nashville. Music was furnished by Misses L. A. Bright and Selene McGavock, who rendered beautiful solos, and by the Roger Williams University. At eight o'clock Thursday night a mass-meeting was held at the First Baptist Church. At this meeting an address was delivered by Hon. J. W. Brister, State Superintendent of Education, and the annual address of Prof. J. B. Batte was also listened to. A splendid program was rendered, participated in by many of the leading teachers of this section of the state and this city. The meetings will continue through Friday and Saturday, and already this association promises to become one of the strongest in the South. REVIVAL AT ST. JOHN Rev. S. L. Howard is conducting a successful revival at St. John A. M. E. Church. One evening during the week he urged his members to pray for the conversion of a host of souls on Easter Sunday. Rev. Howard believes that no more appropriate celebration of Easter can be had than the converting the people to an acceptance of the Christian religion. CAESARIAN OPERATION BY DR. R. F. BOYD. Dr. R. F. Boyd was called to Lebanon last Tuesday by Dr. Lowry and Bailey. He had a very difficult case. The patient in question was Miss Annie House, aged 20. The above-named doctors had done all in their power to relieve the patient without avail. Dr. Boyd left the city well-equipped to perform the operation required. He did it in a masterly way in three minutes, after which the patient was very much relieved. If the doctor had been a few moments later the patient would have died, as it was his suggestion that a Caesarian operation be performed. The medical profession at Lebanon are profuse in the praise of the masterly way in which Dr. Boyd handled the case. EXTENSION SOCIETY OF ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH. The Ladies' Extension Society of St. John A. M. E. Church met Friday, March 29th, at the residence of Mrs. Samuel Grandberry. The meeting was opened in its usual form.

BOYD, Secretary, 83 Second Ave. M., Nashville, Tenn. Panama and Costa Rica ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` We then asked him if he thought the Southern Baptists would be wise in turning their work into the hands of the National Baptists. He said from what he had seen of the work of the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention and the progress it was making, he thought it would be wise if that could be done. He said under the present conditions there was a threefold prejudice against the Baptist work, or against the Negro? First, there was the natural race prejudice between white and colored in all nations where they live together; Secondly, there was naturally a religious prejudice of all denominations against the Baptists on account of their peculiar doctrine and apparent selfishness with the ordinances; Thirdly, that on the Zone there was a national prejudice, that at present all the Southern Baptist employees, except Mr. Wise, were British subjects or Englishmen, and all of the members of the congregations were British subjects; that the British flag was far more prevalent in many instances than the Stars and Stripes. He could not say that this was the case, but he said that this was liable to cause some feeling. Our time was short with Mr. Nellis, as we had to catch a train for Panama City. Arriving in Panama City, we were again ready for a good dinner. Saturday, February 17th, we arose early. As carriage hire was cheap, we again called a gentleman with his Victoria. Again he was neither white nor black. Mr. Thorbourne carried on the conversation. We told him to tell the gentleman that we wanted him, his carriage and his horse for one hour, until breakfast was ready. We remember hearing him say, "Unus paces, dotre allis." Having heard some of that language once before, we soon understood it meant $1.25 gold, hence we had our hand in our pocket, but Mr. Thorbourne informed us that in Panama there were only two bad paymasters, one paid before the work was done and the other never paid at all. Seating ourselves in the Victoria and ordering the man to keep up plenty of steam and to use the lash freely on the little pony and move at a lively gate, we saw a great deal of Panama and overstayed our time by ten or fifteen minutes, but assured the gentleman that he was driving a Big Negro from America and that he would be called often, he let us off with the $1.25 gold. Having our breakfast and having asked this same gentleman to call at ten o'clock, we again sat ourselves in the Victoria and ordered him to drive to the Ancon post-office. Here we saw the United States flag floating over the post-office and felt very much at home. We rushed to the window and asked if there was any mail for R. H. Boyd. The gentleman looked up at us and said call at the other window. We said to him, "We only want our mail." He said, "Sir, you are a Negro, and must get your mail where other Negroes get theirs. Negroes and white men do not get their mail at the same window." We looked at him and knew that he was blacker than we were, but wanting our mail so badly, we obeyed orders and went around to the window where Negroes called for their mail, fell in line with the other Negroes, called for our mail, and here we were waited on politely. Again seating ourselves in the Victoria, we asked this gentleman, neither white nor black, to drive us to the Administration Building. On reaching this magnificent building, on top of a hill where we could look over into the Pacific Ocean, we made a bee-line for Gov. H. Thatcher's office. Sending in our card and our letters of introduction, the porter was sent out for us. We were introduced to Mr. G. A. Ninas, chief clerk to Gov. Thatcher. This gentleman is a typical American, and we think a Southerner, but we do not just remember, but we know he was unusually polite. He talked to us freely of all affairs in the states and regretted very much that Gov. Thatcher was not in, but assured us that we must not leave the city or the Zone without seeing Gov. Thatcher. This gentleman, like the others, said he was familiar with our work on the Zone and had watched it with considerable interest, and he knew that Gov. Thatcher was very much interested in the religious welfare of the employees of the Zone and that we must not leave the Zone without calling on Gov. Thatcher, that he would be in the office on the next day. We discussed all the conditions. He gave us a report of the chief engineer of the Zone and answered many curious questions that had arisen in our mind and made things very plain. We apologized for taking so much of his time, but he assured us that visitors from the States were always welcome and that they would spare no pains in trying to explain everything. From here we went to the Circuit Court of the Zone and were introduced to Mr. W. Emery, the Clerk of that Court. We found Mr. Emery very polite. He immediately informed us that the appealed law-suit had been filed in the courts and that $100.00 had been deposited for the costs and that the case would be called on Monday. He gave us to understand who deposited the money. He also informed us that Mr. Oscar Terant, LL B., a Colombian, had been employed to prosecute the case. This took us by sur- NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1912. prise. Rev. Thorbourne said he had not notified us of this little suit, as he felt we would be equal to the emergency, and he wanted us to become better acquainted with things before telling us of these conditions. Of course we did not tarry long with Mr. Emery, for we felt that we needed a lawyer and needed him badly. Then Mr. Thorbourne informed us that Mr. W. H. Carrington, LL. B., of Colon, or Cristoval, had volunteered to represent us without price, or without money. Baptists," and we drank ice heart's content. The chaple seat. We begged of him to on the gallery and get some air, which we needed. Laurie consented. He called in one of the Episcopal church, Mr well as we now remember. positive about the name. W Mr. Brown who we were. H understand, you are of the tists." We said, "No, from Looking over the papers handed us by Mr. Emery, we next called to see Archdeacon Brown, better known as Major Brown, United States Chaplain. Maj. Brown had a funeral at that hour and asked us to call again. Leaving Maj. Brown to attend the funeral, we next called on Prof. F. A. Gause, superintendent of public instruction of the Canal Zone. Mr. Gause met us very cordially and we were pleased to meet him. We chatted freely with him concerning conditions, going over about the same as we did with Mr. Nellis and the secretary to the Governor. He also informed us that he had been very much impressed with our work and that because of the success of our school, he had transformed it into a government school and had employed Prof. J. J. Pinnock, our lay preacher, as a regular teacher. From here we called on Mr. N. W. Anderson, secretary of the American Legation. We found Mr. Anderson unusually polite and very communicative, and we learned many things from him concerning international affairs. Mr. Anderson seemed to be a Christian gentleman and talked freely on conditions. We next called on Mr. Morris, cashier of the Panama Banking Company, who had done considerable business with us. His bank had cashed all of Mr. Thorbourne's cheeks and on one occasion made bond for Mr. Thorbourne to get his household furniture from the steamship company and through the ports or Panama. He was glad to meet us and proud of the business transactions that had been carried on. Mr. Morris seemed to be of Catholic persuasion and did not care to talk readily or religious conditions. We called on Rev. Henry Compton, D. D., pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Dr. Compton is a native Ohian and is a graduate of one of the Ohio colleges. He and his family have spent fifteen or sixteen years in South America among the Latin people and speak and write Spanish very fluently and have not a spark or trace, that we could find, of race prejudice. Dr. Compton talked very freely with us over the conditions. He assured us that the only hope of the Baptists to handle the Negroes of the Zone would be to have colored, or Negro preachers. He said his congregation was white, that he could not allow the colored brethren to attend his church, that if they attended in any numbers worth noticing the white congregation withdrew. He said he was beginning to conduct Spanish services, but had not succeeded to any great extent. We went to call on Judge S. Blackburn and round him very busy, but polite and ready to give us any information. We asked Judge Blackburn concerning the work. He unhesitatingly informed us that he was a citizen of the United States and believed that Negro congregations should have Negro preachers and that he believed when the Southern Baptists awakened to the proper realization of conditions, they would gladly turn over all their work to us. He said he had visited the National Baptist churches on the Zone and had seen Rev. Thorbourne's home and felt that the beautiful cottage, built by the National Baptist Convention for Mr. Thorbourne's home, was a credit to the denomination, that it compared favorably with any quarters furnished chaplains by the United States Government on the Zone. Judge Blackburn is judge of the district court. We next called on Judge Jackson, associate Justice of the Supreme Court, When he examined our letters from Gov. Hooper and Mayor Howse, he said, "Why, I know Ben Hooper and Hilary Howse both. I am a Tennessean, don't you know me?" We told him possibly we were the other Boyd and did not remember meeting him personally, but that there was more than one Boyd in Nashville. "Well," said he, "I will stand by what Ben Hooper and Hilary Howse say, for they are all right. Call on me again. Any information I have is at your disposal." When we put it up to Judge Jackson, he, like all others, said, "Now look here, I do not care to be quoted, but I can tell you something." And he began to pour out things that we cannot here explain. Nobody wants to be quoted. From here we returned to the home of Major Brown. We found the Major dressed in his chaplain's white suit and we envied his cool appearance. Climbing that high hill, going even higher than the Administration Building, we told the Archdeacon we were Baptist and only dry place about us was on the inside. He did not say, "Why here is water, what hinders you to be baptize," but he called John and said, "Bring the gentlemen plenty of water, they are We then asked him concerning the two Baptist Boards and told him that our Board had been informed by the Southern Baptists that our representative was "persona non grata." Maj. Brown, or Archdeacon Brown, as he is, being the chief representative of the Episcopal or Established Church of the Zone, laughed very heartily and said he did not care to be quoted, but pointed out to us who the "persona non grata" was, and said we might quote him in saying that the work of our Board, and especially of Mr. Thorbourne was as welcome on the Zone by all, as any man on the Zone, white or black, rich or poor, and that it would be next to a calamity if our Board should give up the work on the Zone and turn it over to another body. He further stated that if the three churches and preachers' homes with all of their property and paraphernalia were for sale, give them a chance and they would bid on them. With many other favorable comments and sayings, which we do not here remember, we made a bee-line for the First National Baptist Church of Panama and the parsonage, as well as for dinner. On reaching the parsonage, we found Brother Thorbourne and his wife holding a council of war, thinking that the secretary of the Home Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention had gotten lost. They were just about ready to put up a large sign, "Lost strayed or stolen—one big yellow American Negro, dressed in mixed ```markdown ``` Sunday morning, February 18, we arose, took another shower bath, had a cup of cocoa and toast and rushed to the depot to catch the train for Pedro Miguel. Arriving at Pedro Miguel at 9:30 in the morning, we went straight to the First National Baptist Church, of Pedro Miguel. Deacon Solomon Mason, of the First Baptist Church of Panama City, and some other brethren accompanied us. Deacon Mason, by the way, is now a carpenter and a farmer, having a banana and sugar-cane farm out in the country, where he is making his mark. As a carpenter and contractor he built both the chapel and the cottage in Panama City. Having been informed that the bell had arrived at Pedro Miguel, he went down to examine the building for the purpose of making a bid on hanging the bell and putting up the belfry. Though it was Sunday, we unpacked the bell and set it up temporarily and began to ring it. This created some excitement in Pedro Miguel, and the people ran out to see what had happened. Mrs. Pinnock, the wife of Prof. J. J. Pinnock, who had been occupying the pastor's rooms in the rear of the church, was a little indisposed and was confined to her room. When this was made known, we refused to ring the bell any more, as we did not care to disturb the good lady, although she did not complain. In fact, it is said that she enjoyed the music of hearing a church bell ring in this wild country. (Continued in our next issue.)

FRIDAY, APRIL 5. 1912. Manners in Public. It is too often the case that people in public places forget how to deport themselves. The Globe does not claim to be an authority on manners, but it will not be out of place to call attention to the matter in a general way. Young people as a rule are given to much levity, and it lingers into old age if the child is not properly trained, and when they should be calm and sober, they find themselves given over to senseless gib and vulgar conversation. It is too common a thing to hear young people using language in public places that is unbecoming. Recently in a store where several boys had gathered who were of that age that talking, giggling, laughing and scuffling are as much of their being as is the flesh on their bones, several of these youngsters were assembled, enjoying themselves as is the custom with boys. It was about all one could bear to listen to these youngsters, but while they were having their frolic a young man, well on to his majority, in speaking to a lady in the presence of these boys used language like this: "Ah! come on, nigger, don't give me none of that; I wont stand for it." It was horrifying, and yet the young man meant no harm or disrespect for the lady; it was simply a case of thoughtlessness; where a young man of good breeding had allowed himself to forget his training; who had drifted into the habit of talking with an unguarded tongue. Too much attention cannot be given to the training of the young. Parents should not turn their children out to run at will; for they go wherever their minds lead them or wherever they are attracted. They come in contact more often with the bad and vicious than with the good, and in most cases they take to the bad. As a result they pick up, here and there language that would make the oldest person blush, and that when used by children, shocks the most debased and corrupt people. No one likes a saucy child; no one can tolerate a child that uses vulgar language, therefore parents would do well to pay more attention to their children. They should instruct them how to deport themselves abroad as well as at home, and see to it that they use decent language, and remember that they must be corrected every day by precept and example. The True Reformers won a point recently in the courts and were thereby able to stave off what is feared will be the inevitable. The people of this country are hoping that this grand old organization will eventually settle all her troubles in an honorable, straightforward, business-like way. Emancipation Semi-Centennial. News has reached this city that a bill has passed the United States Senate appropriating $250,000 to aid in the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Emancipation of the American slaves. The bill is now up to the Lower House, and it is believed it will pass this branch of Congress without much opposition. The Senate is strongly Republican and would naturally be looking to economy at this time, being as it is on the eve of a presidential election. They have passed the bill and it is expected that the Lower House will concur in their action, being as they are majority democratic and from the section of the country where the exposition would most likely be held. Every Negro in the country should see to it that his Congressman is urged to support this bill. The nation owes it to the Negro, and the ex-slaves and their children have made such progress as to deserve this much aid in an effort to show to the world what they have accom plished in fifty years. The Negro Press The Negro press of this country is as far apart as individual men. First of all, they have no understanding. One never knows what the other is going to do about a certain thing, and as a rule they are always fighting single-handed. If two papers agree on one thing it is by mere accident, and as a consequence the effective service that might be done through organization and understanding all goes to naught. The press is continually hounding the people about getting together, but it is like a blind man trying to lead a blind man, for the press is further apart than the people. It is a shortcoming on the part of the press that should be overcome, and must be before it can wield the influence it should. Aside from the Western Association of Negro papers there is no organization that we know of that is doing anything toward working concertedly for the welfare of the people. There have been instances in which the press got together. These were cases where the facts were so plain that no one could err. In such cases the results have always been marvelous; but where one of these accidents happen it is possible for untold good to be done if the press would get together, have an understanding and work in unison. Parks in Nashville. Negroes in Nashville will soon be in a position to boast of their parks as much as they do of their schools. With greenwood Park on the south, and the City Park on the north, and with Liner's Park on the east side, it seems that every Negro in the city can have a chance to get a whiff of fresh air during the hot summer days. Last year there was a park conducted on the north side by a white company for Negroes, but this park, lastly known as "Coney Island," has been endeavoring annually to pass from the Negro to white people, and it seems the efforts made during last winter has been successful. Negroes have been used as an instrument to keep "Coney Island" alive until the capitalists could be convinced of the great advantages surrounding the location. The last attempts, it seems, have been successful, and "Coney Island Park" will be converted into a city of amusement, where thousands of white people will congregate and enjoy the great festivities offered at such places of amusement. The Negro has done great service as a bridge to keep this institution alive until sufficient capital could be interested to do just what the proprietor desired to do; but while this is taking place, another great event is also coming to pass. It seems very probable that before the year is out a park will have been established by the city for the exclusive use of Negroes. It will be the equal of any in this state or the South, and if located in the spot that is generally spoken of, it will possess natural resources seldom found in parks. So the loss of "Coney Island" will be the gain of a better park, owned and maintained by the city. Greenwood Park is well known and needs no comment here. Thousands will continue to visit this celebrated park each year and the management is as relentless as ever in beautifying and properly preparing for the amusement and comfort of all who will visit this park. Liner's Park on the east side is a new venture, but gives great promise. So with these places of outing and amusement Nashville Negroes can feel a deal of pride in their home city. San Antonio Hustler. The Weekly Hustler, published in San Antonio, Texas has passed into new hands. One of the members of this new company is Mr. L. D. Bumbrey, who was for several years connected with the National Baptist Publishing House in this city. He is well known here and was wise enough before returning to his home state to select for his life partner one of the charming daughters of Tennessee. Other members of the company are experienced newspaper men and the Hustler should set a hot pace in the Lone Star State. There never was a company of Negroes organized for the purpose of publishing and printing bettter qualified and more evenly balanced than the proprietors of the Hustler Publishing Company. The Globe hopes for these young men great success and we believe that such will be their reward, for they know how to do it, and the knowing how is a guarantee of success in anything. Senator Taylor. In the death of Senator Robert Love Taylor, Tennessee loses a citizen who has held the admiration of this commonwealth for more than a NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1912. quarter of a century and who made less enemies during the thirty odd years of public life than any man in this country. Senator Taylor was a big-hearted man. He was in the truest sense of the word a servant of humanity. Politically, he was a democrat, but he never allowed his political beliefs to outweigh his desire to do justice to all people at all times. He was applicably styled the apostle of sunshine, for wherever he went he carried a smile and words of cheerfulness that enlivened the hearts of the people. Senator Taylor was a friend of the weak and oppressed. He did not believe any human being should be punished unnecessarily, and as Governor of Tennessee he was often censured for his pardon record. He was well known throughout the country and Tennessee was made to be known throughout the nation by Robert L. Tennessee, the statesman, lecturer and orator. He will be missed in this commonwealth, but the memory of his kind deeds will live forever. IN MEMORIAM Mr. Jordan Helm, Jr., of Franklin Tenn., died March 11, 1912, at the age of sixteen years. Odessa was born here. O dear Jordan boy, you have gone. Your cares and sorrows here are You have laid by your cumbrous cells, And we shall see you here no more. The clouds that love the golden tints Of life's bright, joyous morning ray; And oer your peaceful, silent dust, The lovely flowers shall sweetly bloom. While angels oft will gather round And safely watch your lonely tomb Brothers weeping for the loved one That lies before you low in death, Think of the changeless hereafter, Where life is not a fleeting breath. Sisters bowed down in sorrow, too, Arise, cheer, and banish grief; For though you all are thus bereft, The Lord will bring to you relief. Benjamin, for you we drop a tear. To see you in deep mourning clad; And look upon your tender form, So very frail, so pale, so sad. O God! to all a blessing send, And to each mourner, comfort give; Just wipe the tears that drinkle down, That they may flee to thee and live. Perchance, dear friends, you'll meet and greet, Jordan Helm in Heav'n above; Beyond the far-off starry sky, In that bright world of joy and love, By B. H. January, Nashville, Tenn. DEATH OF MRS.

Clarksville News and Comment. We are pleased to note the fact that after many years of struggle against obstacles almost insurmountable, the Clarksville Normal School is rapidly approaching a stage of living reality. A large dormitory of twenty-five or thirty rooms is nearing competition, and when the burning summer can has cooled sufficiently to allow the students to resume the pursuit of knowledge next fall, Clarksville Normal will throw open her doors with a compete faculty and all modern accommodations. This school is under the auspices of the Cumberland River, South Kentucky and Middle Tennessee Baptist District Association, and will a long felt want in this part of the State. The location of the school in this city is wise, as there are thousands of our people in the surrounding counties who will no doubt be gad to patronize it, because it is the only school of the kind in this part of the state. The faculty will be chosen at the meeting of the Association in August, and if the promoters make wise selections, they will have a great school. The second Sunday in April will be a great day among the Baptists of this city. Rev. Henry Alen Boyd, head of the Sunday-School Department of the National Baptist Convention, has agreed to spend the day in the city. At 11 o'clock he will preach at Fifth Ward Baptist Church. At 3 o'clock the distinguished visitor will address a mass meeting at St. John's Baptist Church, at which place all the Baptist churches of the city and county are expected to assemble. At 8 o'clock he will close the day's campaign with a meeting at St. John Baptist Church. Mr. Boyd is working in the interest of the great Sunday-School Congress to be held at Tuskegee next June. Horrible Tragedy. Strong drink and ungovernable temper combined to produce another horrible murder among our citizens on the night of the 26th, ult., when Mrs. James Price put three bullets into the body of her husband and sent him into eternity. Price was a hard work man and was buying a home, but had the unfortunate habit of indulging in liquor and often went home intoxicated. The neighbors say that quarrels and between the two were common. When the killing was done there was no witness. Mrs. Price said that her husband came home drunk and a tight ensued in which he tried to kill her; and that she shot him in self-defense. Both of the parties were members of St. John's Baptist Church, and Rev. S. W. Toles, the pastor, was called upon to preach the funeral of the murdered man. Of course the task was a difficult one, but the Reverend gentleman met the difficulty in a masterly manner, by preaching a most forceful sermon on "Self-Mastery." The lessons drawn from the sad occurrence ought to be of great benefit to all who heard the discourse. The failure of the man to master himself had made him the slave of drink, while the failure of the woman to master herself had made her the slave of passion and temper which finally stained her hands in the blood of her companion. The Morning Glory Sewing Circle met at the residence of Mrs. Lizzie King on Ninth street, Friday. March 2nd. It was a delightful meeting and after the business was concluded a two-course menu was served to the great pleasure of all present. Mrs. King understands how to make things suitable to your taste. The service at Mt. Olive last Sunday was good. Rev. James Fletcher preached in the morning, and Rev. E. M. Lawrence, State Superintendent of Missions, preached at night. It was an excellent sermon. The collections amounted to $28.72. The air was balmy and the people turned out well at both services. Our pastor. Rev. E. M. Seymour, spent two days in Guthrie last week, attending the Missionary and Educational meeting, conducted by Rev. L. L. Collins, our district missionary. He reports the meeting a great success. It was held in Giffeld Baptist Church, Rev. P. D. Dennis, pastor. Rev. E. M. Seymour OAKLAND NOTES Sunday afternoon. Mrs. M. V. Umbie spent three days, beginning with Saturday, with Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Johnson, of Hickory Withe. Mr. Armon Grandberry also spent Sunday and Monday on the A. T. Johnson farm, the guest of Miss Mae Florence Allen. A special Easter song recital will be rendered at the Oakland C. M. E. Church by some of the best talent of Oakland and Hickory Withe. Miss Addie D. Griffe, who is teaching in Hickory Withe, will spend Friday evening with Dr. and Mrs. M. V. Umbie. SPARTA NOTES Sunday was a high day with all the churches. The Rev. S. M. Carmichael filled his pulpit at 11 o'clock, choosing for his next Rev. 11:15; the king dems of this world have become the kingsons of our Lord and his Christ. Rev. W. M. Hoyer preached a wonderful sermon at the M. E. Church Sunday night. The meeting at the Baptist church closed Sunday night with good results. Rev. L. T. Jefferson, of the A. M. E. Church, and his good people are moving on nicely. Mrs. Saile Wright and Mrs. Mollie Spurlock are on the sick list. We wish for them a speedy recovery. Mesdames Hattie Carmichael, Lizzie Randles, Ida Maal McGimmis were the guests of Mrs. Olle Morford Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Bessie Moore is able to be up again. The members of the M. E. Church will have a rally April 14, known as the class leaders' rally. Each member and friend is asked to pay fifty cents. The children of the M. E. Sunday-School will be given an Easter egg hunt in the parsonage yard preached Thursday night; Rev. Fort, Friday afternoon; Rev. S. W. Toles, Friday night, and Rev. A. O. O'Neal Saturday night, Rev. Seymour lectured to the women Saturday afternoon. Rev. Dennis has a great church. The sisters fed the delegates most sumptuously. Rev. Collins is doing a great work in his district. Friday, the 29th w.t., the Morning Glory Sewing Circle met at the residence of Mrs. Margaretine Minor, on Poston street, A delightful program was rendered, after which a two-course menu was most tastefully served. The president of the Circle, Mrs. E. M. Seymour, is planning an entertainment for the Circle in the near future, Rev. E. M. Seymour preached the annual sermon for the Order of the Eastern Star at St. John's last Sunday afternoon to an appreciative audience. At Peter's A. M. E. Church last Sunday morning a beautiful audience listened to a sermon from the pastor, Rev. D. A. Graham, on the "Danger of Falling." The members pronounced the discourse logical convincing and opportune. At the meeting of the Allen Christian Endeavor League and election of officers the result was as follows: President, Dr. S. Jefferson; Vice President, Prof. A. Lyle; Secretary, Miss Birdie Manson; Treasurer, Mrs. Eliza Hodgkins. The new corps of officers was installed by the pastor, and we are expecting a great improvement in the young people's meetings. Easter day is always a great day at St. Peter's Church, and the decorations, music and general program for the day will in no way fall behind this year. The choir will be full-robed morning and night. New music is being diligently rehearsed. The pastor will preach the Easter sermon at 11 o'clock. At this service will occur the baptism of infants. On account of the Knight Templars' sermon in the afternoon at Mt. Olive, the children's exercises will be postponed until night at St. Peter's, when a beautiful children's concert and missionary service will be rendered. On Monday night is the great concert which will be a regular musical feast. Besides St. Peter's choir, the choirs of St. John, Mt. Olive and Fifth Ward will combine under the direction of the musical preacher, Rev. E. M. Seymour, in a grand chorus that will open the eyes of Clarksville. As solists Miss Birdie Manson and the rising young soprano, Miss Ophelia Smith, will charm the audience with their sweet carols. Don't miss it. Our pastor, Dr. D. A. Graham, has been invited to preach the annual sermon to the Knights Templar Sunday afternoon at Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Dr. Graham has also recently been appointed treasurer of the Central Tennessee Conference of the A. M. E. Church by Bishop H. B. Parks. All Home Missionary money raised in the various churches of the conference Easter day should be sent immediately to Dr. Graham. The High School concert given at St. John Church March 25th is a grand success both in point of attendance and in the character of the program. The house was well filled in spite of the bad weather, and the various numbers on the program were rendered with an ability which evidenced careful preparation. Of course the star of the evening was Miss Sylvia Ward, of Fisk. Miss Ward is of prepossessing appearance and yet simple and winsome in her ways. Her voice is of rare volume, highly cultivated and from her first note she has the full sympathy of her audience. Clarksville was delighted to hear her again. Miss Ophelia Smith, one of the graduating class, was a surprise to the audience, as she rendered with such ease and in beautiful voice "I'll Always Be the Same to You." She will be a favorite in Clarksville. Miss Lola Graham's piano solo, "Jonggerie," was pronounced excellent by the musical experts. Prof. W. G. Hale, President of the State Colored Normal, was present and made an address. Our public schools closed for two days this week that the teachers Saturday evening at 4 o'clock. Bishop Frierson will preach at the A. M. E. Church Sunday night. WHITEVILLE NOTES On account of the bad roads the sisters of Whiteville failed to observe Palm Sunday, for which they so beautifully planned. The funeral of Mrs. Malinda New, wife of Mr. Jim New, was attended at Battle's Chapel Sunday, March 31. Mrs. New had been sick several weeks. She leaves a husband and several children and a host of relatives to weep. Messrs. Bob Murphy, Tom Green, Prof. J. C. Alen and Rev. W. H. Bowers were pleasant callers at Dr. Sheilton's Sunday evening. Mr. Will Norment came in a few days ago from Memphis, where he went to purchase a span of good mules. The good people of Whiteville stormed Mrs. Martha Norment, who has been an invalid these last few years. They carried her many eatables, which they hope she will enjoy. Mr. Pete Herron is sick again. Mr. Tom Stallion is better. Mrs. Rosetta Robertson is in town spending some time with her brother, Mr. Erby. Mrs. Mattie is planning to visit her sister in Jack son next week. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. The subject of Rev. W. S. Ellington's discourse Sunday morning will be, "Will There Be a Resurrection of the Body? If So, Why? If not, Why Not?" The Church choir will render appropriate music. The Lord's Supper will be celebrated at the close of the morning's service and the hand of fellowship extended to the new converts. NASHVILLE, GLOBE, FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1912 might attend the Middle Tennessee Teachers' Association at Nashville, and many of them availed themselves of the opportunity. Prof. R.-L. Yancey, former principal of our city s hools, who is now teaching in Evansville, Ind., visited in the city last week, the guest of Dr. Burt, Mrs. Ellen Oakley of St. Louis, Mo., who came to the funeral of her brother, Mr. J. H. Thompkins, returned home last Sunday, Mrs. Amanda Thacker, of Ringgold, Tenn., underwent a very serious operation at the Home Infirmary this week. We is now doing well. Dr. Burt has recovered from his illness and is now busily engaged in his practice. Nurse Shelton is now nursing in the home of Dr. Daniel Johnson. In Memory of Mr. J. H. Thompkins. Whereas, It has been the pleasure and will of our Heavenly Father, who is the author and preserver of all mankind, to come into our midst and pluck from the tree of our institution, The Mutua Loan and Trust Company, one of our members and directors, Brother Joseph H. Thompkins, a brother who was ever ready to say, "Here am I; send me" in whatever was beneficial to the institution; and, Whereas, We recognize the fact that God doeth all things for the best, and to that end on Saturday, March 24th, called our dear brother and friend from the lesser important to the greater desirable; and, Wherecas, Brother Thompkins had been a director in our institution from its infancy, we feel sincerely his loss. But to Him who in the law of nature holds communion with both visible and invisible worlds, we bow in humble submission. We would say to the directors of the M. L. & T. Co., that the feet of each and every one of us are slipping 'er the brink and it behooves us each to implore the Heavenly Father to be near us. And though we have been spared, others, and those more worthy, have been selected. But our brother is gone. If the most active piety, if the practice of all the virtues that bless our race, if prayers, if tears could avail, we would have him with us again. But, alas! he is gone. Affection weeps, society mourns, and is there no consolation? 'What mean those effulgent rays now penetrating the dark cloud of affliction and sorrow? It is the light of his example illuminating the path of the just, and guiding to those mansions of eternal rest where affliction and sorrow never enter. Therefore be it Resolved, That we emulate the virtues of our departed brother, ever cherishing fond memory of his noble example, that our end may be joyous and our rest eternal. Resolved, that the Board of Directors of the Mutual Loan and Trust Co. extend to the bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy in this sad hour, and commend them to the care of our benevolent Heavenly Father. And be it further Resolved. That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of our organization, a copy sent to the bereaved family, and a copy sent to the reporter of the Nashville Globe for publication. Respectfully submitted—S. Jefferson, N. S. Dabney, R. T. Burt. Thursday evening the Sewing Circle met at the home of Mrs. Fannye Young on Fort street. After business was over ices were served. Thursday night the public school held its annual concert. Union Baptist Teachers' meeting held its meeting as usual. The installation of officers was held by Rev. Seymour, after which a short talk was made by each. It was moved and seconded that they hold the next meeting for the month with Mt. Olive Church. Rev. S. W. Toles was invited to Guthrie to preach Friday night. Rev. C. H. Carney reviewed the lessons. Large attendance. At 11 o'clock Rev. S. W. Toles preached one of his interesting sermons, text, "Come, follow me; I will make you fishermen." At 2:30 o'clock funeral services of Mrs. Sue Rider were conducted by Rev. S. W. Toles, after which the Eastern Star services were conducted by Rev. Seymour. ALABAMIAN WINS PRIZE. Atlanta, Ga.—The annual prize offered by Spelman Seminary was won by Miss Louella Hudson, who is a junior in the college department and who is a daughter of Prof. R. B. Hudson of Sema, Ala. Much interest was attached to the contest because of the youth of one of the contestants, she being the youngest member of her class and youngest of the list of competitors. This prize, which is offered annually by the committee, is much sought and the winner is usually a valedictorian for the coming year. It is stated that Miss Hudson also won the prize at Selma University the year she graduated there BUSINESS LEAGUE MINUTES. The minutes of the Little Rock session of the National Negro Business League have ust been published. The report makes a column of 206 pages and contains a stenographic report of the actual proceedings of the meeting, and, in addition to that, supplemental information as to the local Negro Business Leagues, life members, the enrollment at Little Rock and a comprehensive report of the sessions of the Negro Bar Association, the National Negro Press Association, National Negro Bankers' Association, and the National Negro Funeral Directors' Association, all affiliated organizations which met at Little Rock at the same time. The report, which is from the press of the A. M. E. Sunday-School Union in this city, is well printed in good, large type, and is well arranged so as to show in the best manner the interesting exercises which attended the meeting at Little Rock last August. SELECT YOUR SUBJECT NOW. List of Subjects to be Discussed at the Seventh Annual Session of the Sunday-School Congress, Tuskegee, June 5 to 10. This week the Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress handed out a list of ten subjects that had been agreed upon, selected and adopted as the subjects for the 1912 session. The Secretary stated that the same rule that governed the Meridian meeting will obtain, that is to say that those desiring to write on these subjects, may do so on condition that they notify the Secretary, in order that space may be provided for them on the program. It is noticeable that the subjects have been reduced to 10 this year, thus arranging for the discussion of two subjects each day, one in the forenoon at the general session and one at night at the general session. The afternoon, says Secretary Boyd, will be devoted entirely to departmental meetings. He further desires to notify the Congress attendants that notices must be given before the opening of the Congress of the subject named and address of the party writing on the subject in order that he may properly list them. These subjects do not include the subjects to be discussed at the departmental meetings. This will not prohibit people who take part in these discussions from entering into discussions in these meetings. The following are the subjects: 1. The Responsibilities and Possibilities of the Sunday-School as a spiritual organization. 2. The Specific Requirements of the Primary Class. 3. The Organized Class the Most Effective for the Adolescent and Adult. 4. The Sunday-School Teachers' Meetings and How Best Conducted. 5. Of What Special Benefit are the Metokas and Galedas? 6. The Denomination Academies, Colleges and Their Obligations to the Sunday-School. 7. The Sunday-School Room and Its Equipment. 8. The Sunday-School a Connecting Link Between the Home and the Church. 9. The Sunday-School Teachers' Most Difficult Problems and Their Solutions. 10. The Sunday-School A Missionary Recruiting Station. In case there are those who do not understand the selection of the subjects, or who wish other information on the subjects, the Secretary of the Congress wishes to state that the chairman will allow ten minutes for those opening the discussion and after the discussion is open, those following the reading of the paper on same subject would be allowed five minutes. It will be remembered that the arbiter and blackboard critic is to close each discussion with his blackboard exercises. For further information write, sending a two-cent stamp, to Henry A. Boyd, Secretary, 523 Second avenue, North, Nashville, Tenn. NEGRO SAID TO BE AT SOUTH POLE Persistent rumor has it that they are trying to establish a fact that there was a Negro in copium with the Norwegian who is said to have recently discovered the South Pole. Whether this be true or not will not be known until the explorer returns to a more densely populated section of the globe where he can be interviewed by progressive and aggressive news gatherers. But the thing that stands out in boldest relief to the American people seems to be that if there was a Negro with Capt. Amundsen as there was with Leut. Peary, who made his dash to the North Pole, he will have no further difficulty in establishing the fact that his discovery was made. It is said that the striking coincidence and the things that lead up to the belief that a Negro was with the South Pole discoverer is that one of his servants bears the name of Henson, and that this same name Henson is traced to American lineage. Since the name Henson is usually found among the Afro-Americans or Negroes, Dame Rumor is saying that the Negro, in spite of the hardships he must undergo, has up to the present, turned up wherever the white man has been found. In speaking of this rumor, a prominent gentleman of the city said that the back man had contributed to every page of history, ancient, medieval and modern. He stated that the theologians no longer deny the fact that a Negro was in the three wse men in the East, who led by the star, beheld Christ in the manger wrapped in swaddling clothes; that it was a Negro who concerning the tidings of war and the death of his son Absalom; that a Negro had carried the Christian religion down into Africa centuries ago, before Egypt lost its glory; and that things that tre fresher in the minds of the people are that a Negro was the first to shed blood in the Revolutionary War for the Stars and Stripes, Crispus Attucks by name, and that it was a Negro who was the companion and friend of Thomas Jefferson and it was this Negro who was rated as the first and greatest of America's mathematicians, his name was Benjamin Banneker, and who gave to America her first Almanac; that a Negro invented the first steamboat to plow the mighty deep; that it was a Negro who thus far invented the only feasible cotton-picker; that it was the bravery of the Negro soldiers at Fort Wagoner and Fort Pillow that challenged the admiration of the civilized world; that it was the fighting Negro regiment during the Spanish American War that added more glory to Old Glory in the Antilles. It was Henson, a Negro, who nailed the Stars and Stripes to the North apex of the world. So if the other Henson proves to be a black man, the Negro will claim a deal of the distinction in the discovery of the South Pole. If not, then the North Pole belongs by discovery to one race and the South Pole by discovery to another. COTTAGES FOR SALE ON EASY TERMS 1013-10th Ave..

For the past two Sundays a gang of so-called bad white boys have infested the capitol grounds, being her particu'ar to confine their appearance to the Cedar street side and entrance. A general complaint has been made about the conduct of these boys who have insulted pedestrians, picked disturbances with passersby, and oftimes throwing rocks and making life miserable to especially the Negroes who chance to be on their way from church, or crossing Cedar street hill. Two Sundays a gentleman driving his family, barely escaped being assaulted by about a dozen of these boys whose ages range from ten to fifteen years. It appears that the gang had secreted themselves in portions of the capitol yard and was laying for a colored boy who they saw coming over the hill. The entire number being not less than twelve, started after the boy, throwing rocks from the hill but not coming into the street, but a regular battle of rocks ensued. It was impossible for the gentleman and his family to pass, so swift and thick were the rocks flying. He stated to a Globe reporter that he drove a block down the street and reported the matter to a policeman of that beat, whom he said was coming up Cedar street walking leisurely eating peanuts. He stated that the officer replied that he knew the boys were there, but that the officer made no attempt or no effort to apprehend these urchins or to protect the life and property of the people as they passed. It has often been reported in this neighborhood of the conduct of these boys who are marauders right under the shadow of the state capitol. Some are claiming that they never cross Flight avenue going west but that they confine their operation between the square and Eighth avenue, using principally the capitol grounds as their rendezvous, making no attempt to conceal their acts, even from the police force. DR. ROMAN ADDRESSES THE Y. M. C. A. AT MEHARRY. More than usual interest was centered in the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. of Meharry Medical College on Sunday afternoon 39th inst., that being the last meeting of the session, and it having been announced that Dr. C. V. Roman, reputed for his eloquence and words of wisdom, would address the association on that occasion. The meeting began at 3:30 p. m. with the singing of a hymn, which was followed by the reading of a passage from St. John's gospel, by Mr. W. H. Clark, of the Senior Medical class, and vice-president of the association. After this, the audience was favored with an instrumental duet by Messrs. Looney and Scott, and then there followed the formal introduction of the speaker, by Mr. J. S. Scott, of the Senior class. Dr. Roman took as his subject: "Is Religion a Necessity for Man?" It would be difficult to render by comment an adequately perspicuous exposition of that most philosophical and highly edifying lecture, so very profound and far-reaching were the thoughts embodied and the truths expressed. He declared his lecture to be the same that he delivered twelve years ago, when called upon to defend the Christian religion, and the Y. M. C. A. having just completed its year's work, he deemed it opportune to "illustrate that its labors were not in vain, but that the God of its adoration is the Creator of all the universe, and the one omniscient and omnipresent Being. "Religion," he said, "embodies duty for the present, hope for the future, love for humanity, and reverence to God." It next devolved on Dr. Roman to present diplomas to those members of the senior class who have completed the course of Bible Study, held under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. and after he had made a few remarks of commendation and admonition, the following persons were granted their diploma: Messrs. E. A. Bailew, J. S. Scott, J. T. Breedlove, B. A. Everett, I. M. Whittico, A. H. McRuffin, J. F. Smith and S. M. Dunzy. Closing remarks were then made by Dr. G. W. Hubbard, Dean of Meharry, in which he commended the association for its successful work during the year. The rendering of a selection by the senior class quartette, and the pronouncing of the benediction by Bishon E. W. Tyree of the A. M. E. Church, brought this very delightful meeting to its close. The election of officers of the Y. M. C. A. took place two weeks ago in the Freshman class room in the medical building and the following persons were chosen for the ensuing year: S. H. Davis, President; G. M. Kendrick, Vice-President; C. E. Shores, Secretary; J. E. Strain, Treasurer. DRS. J. E. FORD AND A. D. WIL LIAMS. Two of the leading Baptist ministers of the South stopped over in Nashville for several hours. They were Dr. J. E. Ford, D.D. pastor of Bethel Baptist Institutional Church of Jacksonville, Fla., and A. D. Williams, D.D., formerly of Atlanta, G.A. Both of these divines were en route South from Denver, where Dr. Ford has been on a visit to his family, and where Dr. Williams has been recently called to the pastorate of one of the best churches in the West. Their stopover here, from what information could be picked up from Baptist circles, was that both might get a line on the Sunday-School Congress plans, as the Rev. Dr. Ford is to conduct the Bible Conference. While here they were being entertained by Drs. Clark and Boyd. They left on the Dixie Flyer for Atlanta and Jacksonville. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Allison and family wish to turn thanks to their many friends for their kind assistance during Mayme's illness. A Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Al Dilson, of 2015 Jefferson Street Above is the sketch of Miss Maymee Allison, who died March 28th, at 4:20 a.m. She was born September 28, 1890. She was a graduate of Pearl High School, class of 1906. She was a member of corps of Davidson County teachers; was principal teacher of Mt. Nebo school Una, Tenn, at the time of her death. She had been teaching school for four or five years. She closed her school last June for vacation, came home and was taken ill on the 10th of June, and continued ill until her death. Maymee was loved by all who knew her. She always had a smiling face. The pupils of her school loved her. She never gained strength enough to venture out again. During her long illness she was patient and bore her sufferings with resignation. She struggled to not show to her dear mother how dreadful her pains were in order that her mother would not be worried. She often tried to help herself when it was possible, rather than call on her mother. She told her mother and father often that the Lord wanted her in his building, and that she was tired. Maymee leaves to mourn her loss a mother, father, three sisters and three brothers, and a host of relatives and friends. The funeral was held at the Holy Trinity Church, of which she had been a member since childhood. A beautiful sermon was preached by Father A. G. Coombs, rector, and a beautiful solo was rendered by Miss Madeline Carter, entitled "Face to Face." The following young men served as palebearers: Anthony Porter, Beng. Ogletjian, Arthur Brown, Floyd Wade, Rufus Duncan and Dennis Erwin. The flowers bearers were: Misses Lou Ella Mayberry, Adelade Towson, Geneva Mabry, Annie Henderson and Mariea Coombs. The remains were placed in Greenwood Cemetery. SENATOR ROBERT L. TAYLOR NO MORE. (Continued from Page 1) "Here under this soapstone slab Lies one who had the gift of gab. He was a Michigander." Dignified debate and humorous jokes were turned loose all over the district, and in the end the jokes won, for the young Knight from Happy Valley was elected to Congress by an overwhelming majority. War of the Roses Unique in Politics. Senator Taylor's second appearance in the political arena was in 1884 as Presidential elector from the State-at-large. Two years later he made his famous canvass for Governor of Tennessee against his brother Alf and won. This canvass between the Taylor brothers was the most remarkable race in the history of Tennessee. It has gone down in history as "The War of the Roses." Bob and his followers wearing the white and Alf and his friends wearing the red rose. Bob was the Democratic nominee. Alf was the choice of the Republicans. They covered the state in joint debate Alf serious and weighing the problems of the dav. Bob humorous and singing from the stump, accompanied by "his fiddle and his bow." Offentimes in the small towns there was only one hotel and just as often the rival candidates were forced to occupy the same room as a combination reception, head quarters and sleeping apartments. Forced to these circumstances, Bob wouldn't receive his friends on one side of the room and Alf on the other, each being simultaneously introduced as "Tennessee's next Governor." Then at the head of long and separate possessions they would be carried in triumph to the stump to return and dream dreams of the high office of Governor from the same bed. At that time there were no special issues that divided the party, but there was strong opposition to his renomination, the convention being in session for a week. His Republican opponent was Hon. Sam W. Hawkins, and their joint canvass was but little less thrilling than that with his brother. Generous of heart and liberal with his means. Gov. Tayor retired from the Executive chamber in 1891 without money. Then his talents as a musician and a lecturer served him well. Having previously prepared a humorous lecture that had popularized him in Tennessee, he commended his career as a public lecturer. Individually and by contract he lectured all over the United States, enjoying unusual success. "The Fiddle and the Bow" was easily the most popular lecture, and he stated only recently that he had made $250,000 out of this lecture. He was beyond all question one of the most popular platform entertainers this country ever saw. Called Again to the Aid of HIs Party It was while he was on one of these lecturing tours through the West that the Democracy of Tennessee called on him again to lead her banner to victory. That was in the summer of 1896 when the State was rent with divisions and discussions on account of the money question, and the people were still suffering from the Cleveland panic. Besides, the issues of the State were bitter. Two years before Hon. H. Clay Evans of Chattanooga was elected Governor by the Republicans on the face of the returns. Hon. Peter Turney, the Democratic nominee, contested the election, and was declared Governor by a Democratic Legislature. These were some of the things that confronted the Democracy of Tennessee when Gov. Taylor was called on the third time to save the State. He was then in the zenith of his public career as a lecturer, and consequently said "no" to the urgent call. So anxious were they that the Democratic leaders sent a committee to him. They found him in Wisconsin. He refused. Then another went to see him in Michigan, and still another sought him in the far northwest. He held out stubbornly that he would never enter politics. Things in Tennessee became so critical that still another committee sought him out in Texas. "Come to Tennessee, Gov. Taylor," they urged upon him "or the Democratic party is gone." With this plea they assured him of success and promised to send him to the United States Senate at the conclusion of his term as Chief Executive and keep him there for life. He thought a while and then rebelled; "Gentleman, my first duty is to my party. When she cal's, I must go." The result is a matter of history. The campaign was second only to the "War of the Roses" twelve years previous. By far the biggest vote that has ever been polled in Tennessee was, that of the fall of 1896. The result was in doubt for days, the official vote showing: Taylor, 156,288; Geo. N. Tilman, Republican, 149,374; "The Fiddle and the Bow" had won again. He Was Popular As Centennial Governor. Entering on his third term, Gov-Taylor commenced two years of trouble and worry as Centennial Governor. For weeks and weeks he was daily called on to welcome visitors to the great fair from the Sunny South or the Far Northwest. Besides, there was a human stream pouring into the executive chamber to shake hands with "Our Bob." Prince and peasant came and received a reception as if of equal rank. His soft heart made his pardon record long, and for this he was subjected to bitter criticism. One cold spring day a woman, followed by five children, walked all the way from the mountains of East Tennessee to ask the "kind-hearted Governor" to give her her "man," who was in the penitentiary. She needed her "man," she said, and no truer statement could have been uttered, for it was a fact, as Governor Taylor often related; her clothes were ragged and torn, her shoes were worn and her children were barefoot. She got her "man" and also a brand-new ten-dollar note from the "kind-hearted Governor's" own pocket to buy the children shoes. On another occasion an old-time s'ave woman came to get "her ole man." "Marsa Robert, I wants my ole man," she said to the Governor, as she courtesed and bowed with typical Southern politeness: "What did your 'ole man' do to get in prison. Anunie?" she was asked. in prison, Auntie?" she was asked. "Dey say he stole some meat, Marsa Robert, but I has my doubts about dat, and besides. Marsa Robert, de meat's all out, and I needs my ole man." She got her "ole man" and rafroad fare back home. Not bested by the worries of being Centennial Governor, Bob Taylor instituted many new reforms during his third term. Among one of these was the abolishment of whipping convict women. This humanitarian step made him many friends. Then, under his administration, a home for indigent and disabled Confederate soldiers was established on "The Hermitage" property, the historic home of "Old Hickory." Retiring the third time from the governorship, Gov. Taylor who, through his genial disposition with his constituency, had been heralded as "The Anoste of Sunshine," went on the lecture platform again, and remained there until 1906, when he was elected to the United States Senate. Besides pursuing his career as a lecturer from 1900 to 1906, he was also editor-in-chief of "The Bob Taylor" Magazine founded by himself. Its name was later changed to the "Taylor-Trotwood" Magazine, to become merged with the Jeffersonian Magazine. The Taylor Magazine was considered good literature. In 1910 the Democratic party of Tennessee was in distress again. The party was split in twain over the whiskey question. The Independent wing had endorsed Ben W. Hooper, Republican, for Governor. M. R. Patterson, then Governor, announced for a third term, but withdrew a few weeks before the November election. That left the party without a leader. Senator Taylor, who had only served four of his six years in the Senate answered the call for the fourth time. The odds were against him, and on account of the fusion of Independentism and Republicanism he was defeated. Hooper receiving a majority of 11,000 votes, but with all that, 121,000 loyal Democrats had not forgotten the "Knight of Happy Valley," and his first sensational race for Congress. Senator Taylor's life is an open book to the people of Tennessee. From the time he was a barefoot boy on the banks of the Watauga, all the way down the line, his life was known and admired by the citizens of his native State. His numerous names, "The Knight of Happy Valley," "Our Bob," and "The Anostile of Sunshine" are attestations of this fact. Senator Taylor never forget Happy Valley. Memories of his childhood days there always lingered with him. On this beautiful stretch of country in the mountains of East Tennessee he said in one of his lectures: "Not long ago I wandered back to the scenes of my boyhood on my fa- 7 ther's old farm on the banks of the river in the beautiful land of my native Tennessee mountains. I strayed more through the pathless woods with my rifle on my shoulder. I sat on the old familiar logs amid the falling leaves of autumn and heard the squirrels bark and shake the branches as they jumped from tree to tree. I heard the paintive song of the whippoorwill and the drumming of a pheasant and the hoot of a wise old owl way over in Sleepy Hollow. I heard the tinkling of bells on the distant hills sweetly mingling with the happy chorus of the songbirds in their evening serenade. Every living creature seemed to be chanting a hymn of praise to its God, just as they used to long ago; and as I sat there on that old familiar spot and listened to the weed, wild harmony I was rapt into a reverie. A vision of the happy past opened before me. I thought I was a boy again and played around the cabins of the old plantation and heard the old-time darkies laugh and sing and play the fiddle as they used to long ago. "Shouldering my rifle, I wended my way back to take one more look at the old homestead on the bank of the river. Silence was there. The voices of the happy long ago were hushed forever. The old-time darkies were sleeping on the hill close by the spot where my father sleeps. The moss-covered bucket was gone from the well. The old home where I was born was silent and deserted. As I peered through the dusty window pane and looked upon the deso'ate heartstone that once'gowed with the light of love and happiness. I thought my mother came back across the flood of vanished years and sang there again the sweet old songs she used to sing in the happy long ago." As a boy of the mountain first, then a young man of "the fiddle and the bow," lawyer, Congressman, Governor, editor, author, lecturer, United States Senator Robert Love Taylor was Tennessee's most popular citizen for thirty years. MEETING AT FIRESIDE SCHOOL The Christian Workers' Foreign Mission Society hold its regular meeting on Monday evening at eight o'clock, April 1st. Items of interest about missionary work in Cuba were given by a number present. A social time followed. The Christian Workers' Conference will hold its regular meeting at ten o'clock Monday, April 8th, at 513 Mulberry street. Reports of work are expected and a 'lesson on How to deal with the excuses of the Worlding" will be taught. SALEM CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH SALEM CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH. The second quarterly conference held last Monday night at this charge was one of the finest in ten years. The captains of the six clubs organized for this purpose reported as follows: Mrs. Henrietta Kelly, Mrs. Ellen Stratton, $7.26; Mrs. Martha Turner, $7.25; Bro. Rains and Sunday-school, $8.03; Misses Stratton and Grimes, $7.20; total, $41.34. This charge has taken on new life under the pastorate of Rev. James Childress. The congregation is growing from Sunday to Sunday. The choir is one of the finest in the city, possessing some voices of the rarest quality. In this effort the pastor was assisted by Rev. Wiley Anderson of St. James, and Rev. W. H. Porter, of Bethel, Dr. J. Q. Johnson, presiding elder, presided at night. PROF. WATSON, OF ATLANTA. Much interest has been attached to the visit of Prof. Watson, who arrived in the city Monday morning from Atlanta. Prof. Watson is one of the general secretaries of the Y. M. C. A. and is thought to have here at the response of one of the other general secretaries. Humor has it that an effort is being made to put on a vigorous campaign in Nashville to raise funds for the erection of a Y. M. C. A. building on the order of the one now planned for Atlanta. Prof. Watson, it will be remembered, succeeded Mr. Hunton, who was transferred to New York. Prof. Watson has been the source of much favorable comment, he being eminently fitted for the position. His stay here is regarded as significant as an entering wedge for the campaign that is reported to take definite shape in the near future. FUNERAL OF MRS. SAMANTHA BROWN. Incessive and solemn were the funeral services over the remains of Mrs. Samantha Brown, who died March 6th at 7 o'clock p. m. on 10th St. The funeral services were held at Bethel A. M. E. Church, of which the deceased was a member for the past fourteen years. Though Mrs. Brown had not been a sufferer, death came to her at once. She seemed to be in perfect health until the end came. Her death was quite a shock to the family and all who knew her. At 2:30 o'clock, March the 9th, the script lesson was read by the pastor and prayer by Rev. G. W. Perry, an ex-pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church. The funeral was conducted by Rev. B. N. Murry, pastor, assisted by Rev. W. H. Porter of Nashville. They both spoke of this noble woman as being a loving wife, a true mother, a devoted daughter and a kind sister. Mrs. Brown was a faithful Christian. She loved her church dearly. She was the chairman of the Daughters of the Conference Board for eight years. She was always willing and ready to do anything to help her church. She looked upon no task as being too great for her to do to help her church. The board has lost a true leader. A beautiful formal design was presented by the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grades and the faculty of Columbia public school, of which her daughter, Miss Beatrice Gordon, is a teacher. She leaves a mother, father, sister, brother, husband and six children and a host of relatives and friends, both in and out of Columbia, to mourn her loss. We can only say it is our loss, but heaven's gain. She now waits in the sweet beyond. WHY NOT OWN YOUR HOME?
