NASHVILLE GLOBE. NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY Vol. VII. Vol. VII. CAPTAIN GEO. T. ROBINSON BREATHES HIS LAST IN OKLAHOMA. Well Known In This City. Was Justice of the Peace at His Death — Born — in — Mississippi— Graduate of Fisk University— School, Teacher, Edtor, Law Special to the Globe. Boynton, Okla., May 9—Captain George T. Robinson, Justice of the Peace, died here today after a lingering illness covering several months. He was a prominent character in this community and was considered one of the foremost men in the state. He was also a lawyer by profession and had at times practiced in different cities in the state. Part of the time he taught school. He was always found engaged in some pursuit that was honorable and at the same time that tended toward the uplift of the people. Captain Robinson was born in Mississippi. In his early days he entered Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., where he graduated from the College Department. He then took a course of law at Walden University in the same city. He was for several years a teacher in the schools of Davidson County, Tenn., and was at one time editor and proprietor of the Tennessee Star. Later he gave up school teaching and engaged in the practice of law. He was very successful in Nashville and remained in the active practice of his profession until 1898, when he gave the practice of law up and joined the army. He was commissioned a captain in the 8th Immune Regiment that was mustered for service in that war. He remained in the regiment until her was mustered out in Cincinnati after the hostilities. He then returned to Nashville where he remained as long as he was in that state. WHO WILL BE THE PRESIDENT of TURNER NORMAL? Since Dr. J. A. Jones, President of Turner Normal, Shelbyville, Tenn., seems very likely to be elected to the editorship of the Southern Christian Recorder, one of the official organs of his Church, the people throughout the state are asking who will succeed him as president of the college. Several names are mentioned but the most prominent among them, and one of whom it is believed will succeed Dr. Jones, are Dr. J. Q. Johnson, Presiding Elder in the Tennessee Conference, and Dr. I. S. Welch, Presiding Elder in the East Tennessee Conference. Both men have a large following and it is the consensus of opinion that one of the two will succeed Dr. Jones in the event he is elected. Dr. Johnson is a graduate of Fisk University, this city, and has a splendid reputation and an educator and scholar. Dr. Welch is one of the first graduates of Wilberforce University, Ohio. He is well known throughout the country for his scholarship and his educational qualifications. Either of these men would be a worthy successor to Dr. Jones, and while there are other able men in the state, it seems to be the opinion that one of these would have first call in the event Dr. Jones is elected. PEARL HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCE MENT PROGRAM SUBMITTED The Commencement program of the Pearl High School was submitted by the Principal, Dr. F. G. Smith, to the Commencement Committee of the Board of ..ducation this week for criticism and adoption.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. PLAN TO RAISE $5,000.00 INAUGURATED BY THE BOARD OF TRADE. Funds To Be For Library Site. Action Taken Friday Night of Last Week—People Want to Help in the Cause—Move Strikes a Popular Chord—New Committees—Members Coming. At the Board of Trade meeting last Friday night a resolution was introduced by Hon. S. P. Harris to raise five thousand dollars to purchase a site for the proposed Negro library. In introducing the resolution Mr. Harris said that he understood full well that the city of Nashville proposed and was perfectly willing to buy the site for this library; but that he felt that every Negro in the city would be glad to contribute a small mite toward the establishment of this institution that would do so much for the enlightenment of the people. He said several had spoken to him about such a move, and every one was of the opinion that they voiced the sentiment of many others when they said that they felt it would be the proper thing to do if the Negroes would raise such a fund. The resolution met the hearty approval of the members of the Board of Trade and was adopted without a single objection. The resolution is as follows: "Whereas, the city of Nashville, through legally constituted authority, has done and is still doing so much for her colored citizens in the way of education and general uplift by maintaining a library and providing a park for their use; and, "Whereas, the Negroes of Nashville are very desirous of manifesting their appreciation in a most substantial way, therefore, be it "Resolved further, That, in pursuance of this idea, a committee be appointed by the Board of Trade known as the Library Fund Committee, for the purpose of soliciting from the colored citizens of Nashville the necessary funds for the purpose stated above, provided that any balance left from said fund shall be at the disposal of the Park Commission to be used in beautifying parks and maintaining same. "Resolved further, That the money shall be raised under the supervision of the Board of Trade, which shall see that the same goes through the proper channel in reaching the end for which it is raised." New members were elected as follows: E. W. Benton, R. S. Scales, Wm. M. S. McCutcheon, E. M. Lawrence, J. T. Norman, J. I. Watson, G. W. McKissack, H. T. Noel, W. H. Oden and D. A. Hart. The Committee on Labor is H. L. Keith, Chairman; R. S. Harris, H. N. Noel, C. T. Randals, S. P. Harris, D. A. Hart, L. Craft and T. B. Hardeman. On Business Enterprise: D. A. Hart, Chairman; H. T. Noel, G. W. McKissack, J. B. Battle, W. H. Oden, William J. Franklin, A. S. Rucker, J. W. Childress, M. L. Huddeston, D. W. Berry, I. L. Moore, C. N. Langston and R. P. Locklayer. VERACITY DOUBTED An amusing incident in one of the squire's courts of this city happened Wednesday. It seems that an employee of the National Baptist Publishing House was to be garnisheed, and the justice came down to the above-named place to enforce the edict. He was ushered before Dr. Boyd, who informed him that the party in question could not be garnisheed for they had overdrawn already. The justice seemed to doubt the veracity of Dr. Boyd, hence all of his books were ordered in court. The Doctor and one of his employees proceeded to transfer the many books of the institution to his surrey and thence to court. After reaching court they went through the same performance transferring the books into court, and seemed to be no end to the bringing in of books, so the judge said, "Doctor, we've got no business looking in your books." RESIGNS POSITION Miss Belma Mahan, who has been employed at the National Baptist Publishing Board for several years, has resigned her position. She has been a most valued employee of this Publishing House in the capacity of stenographer. Miss Mahan will leave the city about the middle of June for her home in Little Rock, Ark., where she will join her father, who has several business interests in that city. She has won a host of friends in Nashville by her amiable and loving disposition, and they are loath to give her up. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY MAY 17, 1912 ROGER'S COMMENCEMENT COMES TO A SUCCESSFUL ENDING. Exercises Largely Attended Many Notable Addresses Delivered During the Weew—Increase in Number of Graduates—Commencement Day Notable Feature. The Connimencement Exercises of Roger Williams University began Friday, May 10th. at 2 p. m., with a Musi-Miss Patti J. LeQuey, the head of the Recital. The Recitil was given by Musical Department. Miss LeQuey is a graduate of Fisk University and has made an enviable reputation in her line. The recital given on the day mentioned above was the best ever witnessed in this city and has received favorable comment on every side. Sunday, May 12, 11 a. m., the baccalaureate sermon was preached by Rev. J. Davenport Bushell, D. D., of Nashville. Dr Bushell is a scholar and orator, and on this occasion he preached one of the most inspiring and logical gospel sermons ever heard in this city. Monday, May 13th, at 3 p. m. the Trustee Board met. The work of the year was gone over and it was shown that the school was making rapid progress. The enrollment this year was much larger than the previous year, and from a financial point of view the work was considered a grand success. Monday night the graduating exercises of the Norma Department were held in the University chapel. The following is the program as it was carried out: A large audience was present to witness the exercises and to encourage the young people in their new step in life. Tuesday was a busy day. In the evening the Alumni held a business meeting. The attendance was unusually large. Many alumni from other states were present and all seemed to be imbued with a determination to do more for Roger Williams in the future than in the past. Steps were taken to strengthen the institution and to encourage the people throughout the country to send their children here for educational training. The fact was recognized that Roger Williams offers splendid opportunities for training of youth. The location is ideal and the surroundings such as to make the stay of students pleasant and profitable. Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock the alumni addresses were delivered to the Normal and College Departments. Prof. J. W. Bell, of the class '95 who resides in Earlington, Ky., addressed the Normal Alumni and Miss L. M. J. Fox, A.B., of the class '99 delivered the address to College Alumni. Both speakers gave out information that was interesting to the Associations, and all were inspired to greater endeavor. On Wednesday morning, Commencement Day, Rev. J. H. Stevenson, D.D., of Vanderbilt University, delivered the annual address. Standing room was at a premium when the exercises opened and the people were still coming when the speaker closed. President Johnson had arranged to convey all visitors to the university. He secured the large pleasure wagons of Mr. Felix White, which met every car and conveyed the people to the school ground. At the conclusion of the exercises a silver offering was taken for the school. A neat sum was realized, for which the president in a graceful manner thanked the visitors on behalf of the school. At the conclusion of the dinner the commencement of Roger Williams University passed into history. BUSINESS LEAGUES WILL MEET JOINTLY.

Over Eight Thousand Attend the Exercises—Imposing Spectacle—Dr. Bushell Preached Sermon—Full On last Sunday at Greenwood Park the Odd Fellows of the city celebrated their anniversary with a sermon and other appropriate exercises. Between seven and eight thousand people braved the chilly weather to participate in the exercises and never in the history of Nashville has this Order observed the day more elaborately than was done at Greenwood Park Sunday. Nothing seemed to daunt the courage of the men and women who constituted this noble Order. They went about the performance of their several duties in carrying out the program as if it had been a balmy May day. Several special cars carried the lodges out to the Greenwood Park, which on this occasion was converted into a temporary city. Every building was crowded with spectators and the day was highly enjoyed. A string of cars fully a quarter of a mile long was lined up at one time on the car track waiting to bring the men and women back to the city. It presented a scene long to be remembered in the hearts of the people of Nashville. The Arrangement Committee had everything norfected and the program was carried out without a hitch. The annual sermon was preached by Rev J. D. Bushell, pastor the First Baptist Church, East Nashville. He acquired himself grandly and received the highest praise of all who heard him. The music furnished by the Band was of a high order and served to enlighten the occasion. When the shades of evening grew on the throng made their way back to their homes happier for having spent the day at beautiful Greenwood Park and fresher for the beauties of life. NASHVILLE BOY SUCCESSFUL IN FLORIDA Mr. L. S. Wilson, Ph. C., son of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, of 1821 Sevel street, is a successful pharmacist in the city of Pensacola, Fla., where he has charge of one of the largest drug stores of the city. Dr. Wilson is a member of the 1912 Class of Meharry. ZION METHODISTS RAISED HALF A MILLION. Charlotte, N. C., May 14.—The report of the various heads of church departments, including educational and missions, rendered on the conference floor show by a general summary of these reports that the conference raised a total of half a million dollars during the past four years for General Conference purposes, not including the money raised for the support of the 3,300 individual churches under the General Conference jurisdiction. Such a remarkable showing is in part indicative of the great work that the church is accomplishing within its own ranks and without any aid from the outside. The forthcoming reports are all of a highly encouraging nature. The conference is just getting down to the real business of the hour and gives promise of being the most energetic and progressive that has ever yet been held by this great body of representative people, all of whom are laboring faithfully for the welfare of mankind and for the salvation of the race. All those who have looked in on the conference save been deeply impressed with the earnestness and sincerity of the members, while the bishops presiding and the leading officials of the church stand for and represent the highest ideals within the reach of those whose lives are devoted to the welfare and the saving of oth- Special to the Globe. Franklin, Tenn. —Mrs. G. W. Patten, whose miden name was Miss Lena J. Pennett, has resigned as public school teacher. Mrs. Patton has been an employee of the Educational Board of Franklin for seven years in succession. The vacancy will be filled by Mrs. Ethel Merrill. The teachers, Misses C. R. Oley, Oley Doyle, Sadie Foster and Mittle Halifacre gave Mrs. Patton a dainty packed stork-box as a token of kind remembrance, which contained many nice articles. School closed last Friday, May 10. The children enjoyed a well-arranged lawn picnic. The past school year has been one of the most successful school years in the history of the school, which, no doubt, is attributed to the hard work of both teachers and pupils.

Kansas City, May 14.—The African Methodist Episcopal Conference today appropriated $5,000 for the flood sufferers in Mississippi Valley. This will be augmented by $10,000 from the church extension society and a special effort will be made on the second Sunday in June to raise $25,000 more for this purpose. GENERAL CONFERENCE HEARS REPORTS FROM HEADS OF COLLEGES Kansas City, Mo., May 8.—The African Methodist Episcopal Church has raised more than $3,000,000 for its work during the last four years, according to the financial report of Dr. John Hurst, financial secretary of the twenty-four general conference of the church, at Allen Chapel, Tenth and Charlotte streets. The session was devoted to hearing the reports of the general officers, Dr. W. W. Beckett, secretary of missions, with headquarters in New York, told of the different phases of the work being done at home and in foreign fields. Dr. William D. Chappelle, president of Allen University, Columbia, S. C., and Dr. A. H. Attaway, president of Edward Waters College, Jacksonville, Fla., spoke on the work of the institutions. The organization of the clerical force was finished yesterday. The staff is as follows: William D. Johnson, D. D., of Georgia, chief secretary; assistants, R. S. Jenkins, Texas; R. L. H. C. Beasley, Arkansas; H. E. Colt, Pope, Alabama; H. S. Grauer, Illinois; South Carolina; H. Y. Arnett, Pennsylvania; E. Wittengau, Mississippi; G. B. Williams, Florida; G. W. Porter, Tennessee, and J. T. Gibbons, West Virginia. Official reporter, Dr. J. G. Robinson, Ohio; conference stenographer, J. M. Palmer, Pennsylvania. Faith in Schools. The Episcopal committee was organized with W. H. H. Butter, Pennsylvania, as chairman; J. L. Griffin, Alabama, secretary, and J. D. Jamerson, Virginia vice chairman. The Rev. William A. Fountain, D. D. Ph. D., president of Morris Brown University, Atlanta, Ga., spoke on "The Religious Training in Our Church." "Our modern educational system touching religious training suffers merited criticism," declared Dr. Fountain. "No less venerable a man than Dr. Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard University, after a notable career of scholarship and merited fame, at his retirement leaves the public uncertain as to his faith in historic Christianity. Faith is not dead among educators. We believe, after all, a sufficient number of profound Christian scholars are in our denominational institutions to prevent them from losing their distinct mission as character builders. The Congregational church has been the mother of forty colleges, the Presbyterian fifty-one, the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, sixty-two, the Methodist Episcopal Church twenty-five. Guide to Common People. "The great mass of common people is looking toward the Christian institution for reliable intellectual guide and wise counsel. The enrollment at Morris Brown College, of which I am president, is 943, the largest Negro school in the United States aside from Tuskegee. We have twelve distinct departments, taking in every phase of intellectual and industrial uplift. We have raised for the support of the college, $110,944.78, all from the members of our church in Georgia." Dr. E. U. Williams. of Alabama, sprung a sensation when he offered a resolution to depose Chief Secretary Johnson. Dr. Williams claimed that Bishop Turner was partial to Johnson. The threatened split was overcome by the delegates tabling the resolution, leaving Dr. Johnson in office. RESOLUTION AT A. M. E. CONFERENCE FAVORS PARTICIPATION IN THE PROPOSED CELE- Kansas City, Mo., May 10.—The department heads of the African Methodist Episcopal Church made their reports yesterday before the delegates now holding their twenty-fourth conference at Allen Chapel, Tenth and Charlotte streets.

Flipper, of Atlanta, Ga., offered a resolution endorsing the plan to hold a semi-centennial celebration at some place in the South (Continued on Page 11). (Continued on Page 4) TENNESSEE'S LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL No. 20 No.20 TAFT GETS DELEGATES STEAM ROLLER WORKS LIKE A CHARM. Republican Convention in Disorder. Scenes Bordering on Sensation of 1908 When Taft Leaders Atempted to Elect Delegates-at-Large —Oliverites Fight Hard, But to no Avail. Backed by the State organization, controlled by Governor Hooper and United States Senator Newell Sanders, the Taft people captured the State Convention yesterday and after wrangling all day and up to midnight succeeded in choosing a solid delegation to Chicago instructed to cast their vote favorable to President Taft in every contest. Disappointed and sore at the State organization the Roosevelt men were several times on the verge of a bolt. Led by their valiant chief, W. J. Oliver, of Knoxville, who was the leading role in the mob convention of four years ago, the Colonel's followers fought a hard battle and died game. The delegates from the State-at-large are: United States Senator Newell Sanders, John J. Gore, J. W. Ross and State Senator Zen Hicks. The announcement of their selection was the occasion of wild excitement among the Taft men. The Roosevelt men, who are also opposed to Governor Hooper and Senator Sanders, were bested on every proposition. The treatment given them bids fare to widen the breach of the old factions. Many expressions of regret were heard among the stance friends of Governor Hooper because they foresee certain doom for him. They realize that a divided party means his certain defeat. A strong fight was made to have Mr. Roosevelt represented in the list of the delegates-at-large by placing W. J. Oliver at the head of the delegation to Chicago, but the Taft followers rebelled, absolutely refusing any compromise whatever ALTERNATES ELECTED Those elected alternates were: Hugh Tate, Knox County, R. C. Cochran, of Dyer; Henry H. Case, of Shelby, and A. E. Love of Pelt. ELECTORS-AT-LARGE Robert Gardner, of Washington County, and W. N. Beasley, of Dyer, were elected electors of the State-atlarge by acclamation. NEW STATE COMMITTEE Those elected for the new State Committee from the ten Congressional Districts are as follows: First District—J. A. Thompson and G. A. Zerkle. Second District—F. W.

The storm of the forenoon has passed over and the weather was still NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1912. threatening, yet a large crowd gathered on the banks of the river to witness the baptizing. At night Rev. Ivory preached to a large congregation. The "Fan drill" at Mt. Lebanon May 2nd, under the management of Mrs. I. B. Ivory, was very interesting.

Strayhorn, D.D., having returned from Memphis Saturday, was at his post and preached at 11 a.m. and night, which was the beginning of a two weeks' revival at McCabe Temple M. E.

Burnett, who preached during the meeting, returned home Saturday. Rev. H. G. Harris, of this city, has returned to Memphis in the interest of the much-disturbed church of that great city. Rev.

E. Church last Sunday were quite interesting. Also services at New Bethel Cumberland Presbyterian Church were interesting. The new pastor, Rev. W. H. Donegan, ably assisted in his service by Rev. W. C. Daniel, of the M. E. Church. The service seems to create an interest in the members of Newbethel and I think the church will move on to success. J. H. Hurn, the agent, failed to attend service last Sunday, as he has been sick for a few days, but glad to say through the all-wise providence of Almighty God, he is improving. Mrs. Addie Cole died Sunday morning, May 5th. She was a member of the Primitive Baptist Church. She was well a long in age and has been preaching for some years around in the community.

Nelson's school, May 7th, at Greenleaf Presbyterian Church, was a grand scene. The church could not seat the spectators that gathered to witness the program, which was nicely rendered. It was one that we cannot soon forget. We all, especially the patrons of the school, should be proud to have such persons as Rev. M. J. Nelson and his wife in our midst. When we think of the painstaking care and fidelity they have shown, we cannot say to a certain number of people, but to the whole neighborhood using their time, their energy, and doing all in their power to help the parents in their needy conditions to enlighten their children, we say without reward or the prospect of reward, we rejoice, and believe that God sent them to us. Never before in the history of the church have the people been so well linked together. We have both spiritual and educational assistance, and now our most urgent need is financial help, with which we believe that great good can be accomplished in the way of enlightening the young people and preparing them for the duties of life. When Rev. and Mrs. Nelson came to this place they found it in a needy condition. The children had only three months in the year to go to school, maintained by the county. Now, you can see the chances they had. The faithful Rev. Nelson and his wife are using every possible effort to extend the term to eight months. The only need is financial aid, and the work can and will be done. We ask the prayers of all concerned that God may shower His blessings in this section and help us in our every-day need. Rev. D. S.

On Wednesday, the 8th, instit., our community was shocked by the announcement that Dan Gordon, the popular barber, of Third street, had been found dead in a cistern. For several months Mr. Gordon's friends have observed that he was acting quite oddly. In fact, it is said that since the death of a sister, his mind has not been right. Recently his wife took him away for a while, hoping that a change of surroundings might improve his nervous condition. He had returned home and resumed work in his shop only two weeks before the sad end came. Tuesday night, in company with his wife, he spent a pleasant hour calling on some friends after closing the shop, but when they reached their residence, he expressed fear to enter, believing that he was being pursued by a mob. After some persuasion he entered the house, but soon slipped out again, and eluding his family, escaped in the darkness. Friends were summoned, and a diligent search was made for him, but not until 5 o'clock next morning was he discovered in a cistern many squares from home. He was a member of the Fifth Ward Church, and NEELYVILLE (MO.) NOTES. NEELVYLEE (M.D.) NOTE. Rev. W. E.

Second, he will have the honor of turning out the first High School graduate from the State Street public school.

The program was as usual, very interesting and the way in which the chairman of the program committee (Mr. Marshall) conducted the same was also a point of interest, for it was a guess as to what the proceedings were to be and all numbers were rendered at a moment's notice, for no one knew the program nor who was to render the same.

FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1912. Carnegie Heroes. In another column will be found an article by Dr. Booker T. Washington on "Carnegie Heroes and the Race Prol" Dr. Washington has taken the time to go over the list of those who have been recognized by the Commission that award the prizes offered by Mr. Carnegie, and has culled the names of all Negroes who have been honored. It will be seen by reading this article that among the Negroes of this country are to be found men as brave as God's sun ever shone on The Warner Home. Situated in the northwest portion of the city in close proximity to Fisk University is the Warner Home, a large two-story structure that is being offered for sale by the Bransford Reafty Company. This home is one of the most beautiful in Nashville. There is a 'awn in front of the house about 150x150 feet, shaded by massive trees, and is in itself a beautiful park. The Reafty Company is holding this beautiful home for some Negro, and there are some in the city who are able to buy it. Fisk University is among the leading educational institutions in the South; this place, situated as it is, would be an ideal home for atyone. Negroes are buying all of the property around Fisk University, and many of our leading citizens already own homes in the community. If some one would buy the Warner home it would show to the world that the Negroes of Nashville appreciate their schools and it would also be an inspiration to young men to purchase good homes. Negres of Nashville are as proud of Fisk as the white people are of Vanderbilt, and it would emphasize that fact if some Negro would buy this beautiful place. It will be a pity if the Realty Company that owns it will be forced to tear down the splendid house that stands there now and cut the trees away to make room for several smaller houses. But unless some one of our men, who are able to do so, step in and buy this home there will be na other alternative for the Realty Company. It is hoped that this beautiful place will be bought and preserved in its present beautiful form. Captain Robinson The death of Captain George T. Robinson will be deeply regretted by the people of Nashville. He was well known here and highly respected. The young men and women who remember him as a school teacher will be sorely grieved when they learn of his death, and the people generally who knew him will likewise be sad when they know that this grand man has passed from the scene of action. Capitalia Robinson was a conspicuous character; not showy; not contentious, but always in earnest. As a school teacher he was conscientious and palustaking. As a lawyer he was persistent and scrutinizing. As a newspaper proprietor and editor he was conservative but aggressive. The people of Nashville were loath to give him up as a citizen, but when he chose to cast his lot in other fields they bade him God-speed, feeling that wherever he went he would acquit himself' nobly. To his beloved wife the people of Nashville extend the deepest sympathy. Steam-Roller Works Well. The Republican State Convention met in this city Tuesday, and as has been their custom in years past, proceeded to give out the names of the delegates to the National Republican Convention. To say an election was held would be a waste of words. It was known to the leaders of the ring before the assembling of the Convention who the delegates would be, and the assembling here Tuesday was only Convention just adjourned lived up to the reputation of the party in past years. Had the people been given a chance to express their opinions Tennessee delegates would have been sent to the Chicago Convention with different instructions from those given out Tuesday night; but it makes little difference how Tennessee votes. Roosevelt will be nominated and elected; and after the Convention at Chicago watch how the Tafties in Tennessee will fall over themselves jumping into the Roosevelt 't band-wagon; for it is pie they want, and pie they must have, whether made of apples or Irish potatoes just so it is 'abled "pie." The General Conference of the A. M. E. Church voted to appropriate $5,000.00 for the flood sufferers. This is a sign of progress. Negroes must learn to help Negroes when they are in distress, and the action of the General Conference is evidence that they are awakening to this fact. Teddy and Wm. are keeping the country up nights with their racket. One of them, for certain, will be through after June. A rumor has gained circulation that the new Negro park will be conducted on the order of the late Coney-Island Park. The person who started this rumor is slly as well as contemptible. This park will not be a place of public amusement, but will be conducted as other city parks, and al' carnivals and dog-fights will have to seek other quarters. Chicago Negroes are catching the progressive spirit. We learn from the Defender that the Lincoln State Savings Bank has opened its doors and that the out'ook is most promising. We hope for our neighbors in the Windy City much success. $41,000 FOR SUFFERERS (Continued from Page 1) in 1913, to show the progress of the Negro since emancipation, was adopted. A resolution of the same nature was passed in the senate during the present session of Congress and carried with an appropriation of $250,000. The plan was inaugurated by Prof. R. R. Wright, president of the State Normal College for Negroes in Georgia, and editor and business manager of the Christian Recorder, the oldest paper published by Negroes. Dr. Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the Sunday-School Union, reported that that organization had been very successful during the last four years. Dr. Joshua H. Jones, ex-president of Wilberforce University, Wilberforce, Ohio, spoke last night on the Negro in history during the past ages. The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, which is now holding its general conference at Charlotte, N. C., has 300 churches, 700,000 members and a property valuation of $6,131,650, according to a report of the Rev. Alexander Harnum, Louisville, KY, who spoke yesterday. Dr. Harnum expressed a wish that these two Negro churches should unite. LAYMEN ORGANIZATION PER FECTED. Kansas City, Mo. May 10—Pursuant to agreement the laymen of the twenty-fourth general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church met at St. Stephens Baptist Church Tue-day afternoon to hear the report of the Committee on Permanent Organization. Doctor J. R. A. Crossland, of Missouri, the temporary chairman, called the meeting to order. The object of the meeting was stated by the chairman. The report of the Committee was read by Prof. E. E. Finch and resulted in the election of the following officers: President, D. W. Gary. Mississippi: First Vice President, D. B. Allen, Rhode Island; Second Vice President, Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, Missouri; Secretary, E. E. Finch, Ohio; Assistant Secretary, W. A. Glover, Florida; Treasurer, Jackson McHenry, Georgia; Reporter, A. J. Marrin, South Carolina. In well-chosen words President Gary thanked the laymen for the honor or conferred upon him, and, assured them that he would endeavor to discharge the duties of the office to the best of his ability. A motion prevailed that a Steering Committee to be composed of one layman from each Episcopal District be appointed to look after the matters affecting the organization and to invite the co-operation of the ministry in its plans for the good of the church. The committee as appointed: First District, W. H. Foster; Second District, J. F. Blackburn; Third District, J. A. Hunter; Fourth District, W. H. Davis; Fifth District, G. W. Teeters; Sixth District, W. H. Harris, M. D.; Seventh District, G. W. Howard; Eighth District, R. J. Gardner; Ninth District, J. H. Harrison; Tenth District, H. D Winns; Eleventh District, A. P. Alexander; Twelfth District, J. B. Willis; Thirteenth District, J. L. Miller; Fourteenth District, Professor W. W Fisher. A committee of five on "Proposed Legislation" will be appointed by the president at today's meeting. There were present at the meeting yesterday many prominent laymen who have been members of one or more General Conferences, also several others that seem deeply interested in the work of the church. Several speeches of a spiritual nature were made by some of those present. It was the wish of some present that the laity endorse the candidacy of their preference for officers to be elected by this Conference, but this was thought to be premature, hence NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1912 no end-of-seconds were given to any one's candidacy. The work of the laymen is destined to be a great Tactor in the church, both from a spiritual and financial viewpoint, if rightly performed, and free from selfish motives. Hence it is hoped and believed that the work in which they are engaged will result in much good being accomplished for our Zion and the spreading of our Master's Kingdom.

The message was royally received. At the conclusion of his address and the response there to the proceedings of the previous day were read and approved. It was Bishop Evans Tyree's day to preside. As he rose to take the gavel a committee approached the rostrum with a floral design over six feet tall. The Conference cheered the Bishop to the echo, who thanked the committee for the honor conferred. At the conclusion of his remarks the conference broke forth again in a hearty applause. Kansas City, Mo. May 11.—The reports of the presidents of educational institutions showed good attendance in schools. The first three graduates of any Negro college were present at today's session. They are Dr. J. T Jenifer, of Chicago; Dr. Thomas H. Jackson, of Little Rock, and Dr. J. H. Welch, of Chattanooga. GENERAL CONFERENCE NOTES. Governor Hadley, of Missouri, delivered the principal welcome address at Convention Hall. Monday night, the 11th. It was considered a masterpiece. A chorus of two hundred voices enlivened the occasion with rich classical music and plantation melodies. Tuesday night was given to the missionary cause. A pleasing feature was the presence of two ministers from South Africa, who stood and interpreted a speech delivered by Bishop J. A. Johnson in Dutch and the native African tongue. The candidates for the bishopric are galore. Dr. I. H. Welch, of Tennessee, is among the number. The most prominent candidate for office from Tennessee is Dr. J. A. Jones, who aspires to the editorship of the Southern Recorder. Dr. J. G. Robinson, of Ohio, was elected General Conference Reporter. Rev. W. D. Johnson, of Georgia, was re-elected secretary, with authority to choose his own assistants. The report of Prof. Ira T. Bryant, manager of the Sunday-School Union, created the greatest commotion of the session among the reports submitted. He will be re-elected without opposition. Prof. R. R. Wright, editor and manger of the Christian Recorder, made a report which was a surprise to all. He convinced the General Conference that he was by no means a small man at the head of that department. He will no doubt be re-elected. The Bishops recommended in their quadrennial address, the abolition of the C. P. A. Department, and recommended in its stead the institution of an organization to be known as a ministerial Brotherhood. The election of bishops and general officers will take place next week. The leading candidates so far for the bishopric are Dr. J. M. Connor, of Arkansas; John Hurst, of Baltimore; W. D. Chappelle, of South Carolina; G. W. Allen, of Alabama, the editor of the Southern Recorder; Drs. T. M. N. Smith, of Georgia, and Joshua H. Jones, of Ohio, are also prominently mentioned.

Mrs. McGregor had lived to the ripe age of 90 years. She was the mother of several children, some of them surviving her. With her death one generation is missing as four generations were represented in the family. She leaves children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mrs. McGregor was an enthusiastic Christian and trusted firmly in the Lord's death. She was a most interesting personage. She could always tell interesting stories of slavery and the times prior to the civil war. She has been connected with many prominent white families during her lifetime, and her death is mourned by colored and white. The funeral services were held Monday at St. John A. M. E. Church, conducted by Rev. S. J. Howard. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1918. CARNEGIE HEROES AND THE RACE PROBLEM By Booker T. Washington, Principal Tukeagues Normal and Industrial Institute. One of the most interesting little books which I have read in recent years is the report of the Carnegie Hero Fund. I think it will do any one good to read records printed in this book of the 653 persons who have been sought out and given recognition, since the commission was founded, because they risked their lives in the effort to save others from injury and death. Most of these heroes, as appears from the report, are men and women from the humbler walks of life. They were sailors, miners, railwaymen, and often common laborers, men, for the most part, employed in the dangerous trades, who in their work come daily in contact with unusual perils. I observer, however, among this list of heroes an assistant secretary of the New York Stock Exchange, a school superintendent in Kansas, an insurance agent and a bank clerk. A considerable number of heroes whose deeds have gained the recognition of the commission, are boys and girls; several of them are put down merely as students. But among others I noticed the name of a woman, an author and an educator, who is 70 years of age. It is evident, therefore, that heroism, physical heroism of the kind to which Mr. Carnegie has tried to give recognition, is on course. It would, perhaps, be nearer the truth to say that there is a certain amount of heroism in every man and woman which simply needs an opportunity and an occasion to transmit itself into action. The last report of the Hero Fund Commission was made in January, 1912, and there are, as I have said, 583 deeds of heroism recognized and recorded out of 6,667 cases examined and passed on by the Commission since the Fund was established in 1904. In each case in addition to the name of the person who performed the heroic deed, a brief record has been kept of the particular act of heroism rewarded and the circumstances under which it was performed. There are, however, in this new Book of Heroes, which Mr. Carnegie, through the Commission he has established, is gradually bringing together, two classes of incidents which are particularly interesting to me. They are cases, the first in which a black man or woman has risked his or her life to save a white man or woman; second, in which a white man or woman has performed a similar act for the sake of a black man or a black woman. There are nine cases of heroism credited to Negroes in the report issued a year ago, and since that time I have learned by inquiry, three other cases of heroism by Negroes have been investigated and recognized by the commission. Following is the account of these particular instances of Negro heroism as recorded in the report of the Hero Fund commission: John B. Hill, colored, aged 35, coachman, rescued Thomas S. Prescott, aged 6, and Florence Williams, colored, aged 21, from a runaway, Alanta, Ga, December 1, 1905. By grabbing the bride of a runaway team hitched to a landau containing the child and maid. Hill, after being dragged some distance, threw the horse. It fell upon him, breaking the stitches in a wound due to a recent operation. Bronze Medal and $500 to reimburse him for pecunial loss sustained on account of injuries. George A. Grant, colored, aged 33, teamster, sustained fatal injuries rescuing Charles G. Campbell, aged 46, President American Priluting & Decorating Co., and Charles a Whipple, aged 48, Superintendent of building construction, from a runaway, Groton, Conn., June 23, 1906. Gran grasped the bridle of one of the horses, and finding himself unable to control the other horse because its bridle was off, he threw the one he had hold of, and was kicked on the neck and run over by the vehicle. He died the second day after. Silver Medal and $25 a month for the support of widow or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for each of four children, until each reaches the age of sixteen. Theodore H. Homer, colored, aged 32, waiter, rescued Freddie Berger, aged 8, from a runaway, Philadelphia, Pa., August 2, 1908. Homer ran several feet to meet a badly frightened runaway horse drawing a delivery wagon containing Berger, and grasping its bridle stopped it within eighty feet. Bronze Medal and $500 for educational purposes as needed. Albert K. Sweet, colored, aged 20, machinist, attempted to save Ranghild, S. D., Lilly H. C., and Axel W. L, Hanson, aged, 15, 13 and 10, respectively, and Gilbert W. Johnson, wood, Rhode Island, February 27, colored, aged 15, from drowning, Norl 1909. The Hansons and Johnson broke through the ice together on Sand Pond, two hundred feet from the bank where the water was twenty feet deep. Sweet skated to within four feet of the hole, and as no flung his overcoat which Ranghild and Johnson grabbed, the ice broke under him. After being in the water twenty minutes, Sweet was rescued by men in a boat. The four others were drowned. Brone Medal. Bronze McMurray. George E. McCue, colored, aged 26, porter, saved Jacquelyn M. Herman, aged 2, from being run over by a train, Garden City, Kansas, November 19, 1908. McCue ran five hundred sixty feet, part of this distance on the track ahead of a passenger train running forty miles an hour, and grasping the baby and its carriage, which had rolled onto the track, threw them aside and cleared the track himself, the pilot beam of the engine missed him by a few inches. Bronze medal and $500 for educational purposes as needed. Martha Generals, colors, aged 57, housewife, rescued Peter M. Malkemes, aged 9, from an electric shock, Wilkes Barre, Pa., July 29, 1906. Unable to release his hold of an electric light wire carrying (twenty-two) hundred volts, the boy was bekered about, when Mrs. Generals grasped him by the neck and received a shock which temporarily paralyzed her arm. She appeared to bystanders to aid him, but none responded, and then she grouped the boy again and succeeded in pulling him tree from the wire. Her hand was dislained for a wook. The boy's hand was badly burned. Bronze medal and $20 a month during her life. Marley Tomlinson, colored, aged 34, farmer, died assisting in an attempt to save Oscar Colson, colored, aged 27, farmer, from drowning, Norwood, North Carolina, August 3, 1905. During a flood of the Yakin River, Tomlinson and another man in a bateau, paddled four hundred feet from shore to Colson, who was clinging to a flatboat, and had gotten Colson aboard when the bateau capsized. Tomlinson and another man were rescued. Bronze medal and $60 a month for support of widow, during her life, or until she remarries, with $2 a month additional for each of three children until each reaches the age of sixteen. Frank Forrest, colored, aged 53, farmer, assisted in an attempt to save Oscar Colson and helped to save Henry C. Myers, aged 62, insurance agent, from drowning, Norwood, N. C., August 30, 1909. When the bateau captized Forrest swam down stream five hundred feet and was rescued by his son in a boat; then running along the bank a mile and a quarter up stream to get above Myers, who was in a clump of trees four hundred feet from land, he secured another boat, and, accompanied by his son, rescued Myers. Bronze medal and $500 to liquidate debt, and for other worthy purposes as needed. James L. Smith, colored, aged 36, peddler, saved Francis R. Hetrick, aged 2, from burning, Sisterville, West Virginia, October 28, 1909. Breaking away from men who tried to restrain him, after two or three men had tried to enter it. Smith crawled under a doorway, through a blast of heat and smoke and occasional flames, into the hall of a cottage and then into the adjoining living room, which was dense with smoke and grasped the child who had been left there. Smith groped his way back to the open door, dragging the child with him, and when he reached the open air, collapsed. He soon revived. The child sustained no burns. Silver Medal and $1,000 toward the purchase of a home. Boyce Lindsay, colored, aged 16, delivery boy, saved E. Reynold Smith, aged 11, from being run over by a train, Spartanburg, South Carolina, May 28, 1910. Stooping over one rail in the face of a string of approaching box cars, when the cars were but four feet distant, Lindsay flung Smith off the middle of the track, where he had fallen from his bicycle, himself being struck on the right shoulder and whirled against the side of a car as he was straightening up to get back from the track. Neither was injured. Bronze Medal and $2,000 for educational purposes as needed. cational purposes as needed. John G. Walker, colored, aged 29, drayman, rescued William G. Obear, aged 44, Quartermaster General, State Militia of Georgia. Legare H. Obear, age 34, and Julia H. Obear, aged four months, and Edward W. Butler, aged 55, Mayor and lawyer, and Green Thomas, aged 56, laborer, from a runaway, Madison, Georgia, June 27, 1909. Walker tried to grab the rein of one of a team of spirited horses drawing a surrey containing Butler, Thomas and the Obears, but falling, he ran alongside the horses a few steps and grabbed the reia. It slipped through his hands to the loop, and at that moment Walker was struck by a wheel and knocked to the ground. The wheel passed over his legs below the knees, and still clinging to the rein, he was dragged along the street for about fifteen feet, when as the result of his pulling back the horses ran into an embankment and came to a stop. Walker was disabled nine days by his injuries. None of the occupants of the surrey were hurt. Bronze Medal and $500 toward the purchase of a home. Charles A. Smith, colored, aged 31, laborer, attempted to save the Theodore Dilhoff, aged 43, laborer, from suffocation, Cincinnati, Ohio, November 26, 1910. Disregarding warnings to take precautions for his own safety, Smith descended a ladder in a twelve foot manhole of a sewer, where Dilhoff lay unconscious from carbonic acid gas and methane. When about two feet above Dilhoff's body and as he was reaching toward him, Smith fell unconscious across Dilhoff's body, Dilhoff was dead when gotten out. Bronze Medal and $1,000 towards the purchase of a home. Mack Stallworth, colored, aged 33, oil tank cleaner, died saving Squire Bradford, aged 28, oil tank cleaner, from suffocation, Port Arthur, Texas, June 25, 1910. Bradford was overcome in a tank-car by gas which had formed in it. Stallworth entered the car through an opening fifteen inches in diameter, and grasping Bradford, lifted him up so that two men on the outside of the car could reach him. Bradford was gotten out, but Stallworth was overcome by the gas and was suffocated before he could be rescued. Bradford revived. Bronze Medal and $20 a month for support of widow, during her life, or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for her son until he reaches the age of sixteen. In three of the cases I have quoted, it appears that the heroic deed was performed by Negroes in behalf of Negroes. In every other instance when a colored man or woman risked their lives it was in behalf of some member of the white race. There are eleven instances recorded in the Carnegie Book of Heroes in which the hero was white, while the person rescued or attempted to be rescued, was colored. Following are the accounts of these heroic acts as recorded in the report: Lochlin M. Winn, aged 30, physician, saved William Miller, colored aged 35, laborer, William E. Houston, aged 35, watchman, and James E. Smith, aged 36, cotton buyer, from drowning, Clayton, Alabama, February 16, 1966. The three men were thrown into a pond at night, three hundred feet from the shore, by the capizizing of a boat. One who tried to swim to the shore was becoming bumbed by the cold, when Winn swam out about sixy feet and helped him to shore. This greatly fatigued Winn, but he successfully swam the full distance to the shore two and helped them to shore, although the second rescued had almost exhausted him. Silver Medal Clifford V. Graves, aged 50, farmer, saved Merritt L. Brown, colored, aged 42, farmer, from an enraged bull, Versallies, Kentucky, March 7, 1907. Graves attacked the animal with a pocket knife, while it was butting and trampling Brown to the ground. He was himself knocked down and sustained a fractured rib, and bruises all over the body, before the bull was chased away by Graves' dog. Bronze Medal and $700 to be applied to the liquidation of his debts. piled to the inquisition of his debts. Raymond A. M, aged 23, locomotive fireman, saved James L. Douglas, colored, aged 2, from being run over by a train, Pates, Ky., September 8, 1908. While his train was running thirty miles an hour, May noticed the child on the track. The brakes having been applied, he went from the cab to the pilot, where he braced himself in a kneeling position on the footrail, and reaching forward with both hands, lifted the babe from the ground and threw it to the side of the track. Bronze Medal James B. Goldman, aged 31, foreman, saved Warren Finley, colored, aged 30, laborer, from being run over by a train, Waterloo, S. C., June 29, 1908. Becoming frightened at an approaching train, Finley jumped from a hand car on which he was riding and fell in front of it. He was held to the ground by the hand car, and just as Goldman released him, they were struck by the engine, both being injured, Goldman sustained bruises on the body and a cut on the cheek. Silver Medal and $1,000 toward the purchase of a farm. Adolph Arnoldt, aged 34, weaver, died attempting to save Earl Johnson, colored, aged 8, from drowning, Philadelphia, Pa., October 3, 1908. Arnoldt swam fifty feet from the bank in Schulklyn River to Johnson, who had fallen into the water, and, being grabbed around the neck by the boy, was unable to free himself. Both were drowned. Silver Medal and $50 a month for support of widow during her life, or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for each of six children until each reaches the age of sixteen. Frank Omner, aged 37, foreman, died saving John Bevin, colored, aged 58, laborer, from suffocation. New Orleans, La., October 27, 1907. Omner went to the bottom of an eleven-foot sewer manhole and fastened a rope around Bevin. The latter was pulled out and recovered, but when Omner was removed he was dead. Silver Medal to widow and $2,000 to liquidate mortgage on her property and $50 a month during her life, or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for each of two children until each reaches the age of sixteen. Amila G. Cone, aged 61, housewife, attempted to save Evalina Smith, colored, aged 5 months, from burning, Raleigh, Florida, May 5, 1908. Rushing into a burning cottage, through dense smoke, to the second room the outside door, while embers from the roof dropped about her, Mrs. Cone rolled the baby from a blazing bed into the front of her gingham skirt and carried it outside, sustaining severe burns on the hands. The baby died. Silver Medal. William M. Edwards, aged 25, longshoreman, rescued Lucius Hubbard, colored, aged 29, stevedore, from burning, Philadelphia, Pa., June 20, 1908. Edwards slid down a rope through a hatchway of a freight steamer to the first under-deck, which was in flames due to an explosion, and secured Hubbard, fastened him to a rope, and climbing up, with assistance, drew him up. Hubbard died. Silver Medal and $1,000 toward purchase of a home. E. Rayph Adams, aged 15, school boy, helped to save Avery D. Mahoney, colored, aged 13, and died assisting in an attempt to save Burdette C. Blett, aged 11, from drowning. Decatur, Michigan, December 7, 1904. Lying flat on the ice of Lake of the Woods, twelve hundred feet from shore with another boy holding to his ankles, Adams worked his way to a hole in which Mahoney and Blett were struggling, and dragged Mahoney from the water. He and his companions were approaching the hole as before, to rescue Blett, when the ice broke, all three were drowned. Bronze Medal Thomas M. Christenbury, aged 38, chief of police, rescued Rufus Long, colored, aged 76, laborer, from a cave in a well, Charlotte, N. C., August 9, 1909. Regardless of the warning of another man, Christenbury, who measured two-tw inches across the shoulders descended a ladder with a rope around him into a well twenty-five feet deep and thirty inches in diameter to Long, who had been caught by the wall caving in and pinioning his arm, about thirteen feet from the surface. Christenbury removed the stones holding Long's arm, and, though there was danger of the overhanging wall falling, worked until he had freed Long, and then drew him to the ladder. Both got out safely. Silver Medal and $200 to liquidate mortgage on his property and $2,000 for the education of his children, as needed. William F. Leland, aged 27, captain, died attempting to save David Simpson, colored, aged 25, deck hand, from drowning, McClellanville, S. C, May 24, 1911. Leland jumped from a river boat into Jermye Creek, and, in water fifteen feet deep, swam ninety feet to Simpson, who had fallen overboard. Leland caught Simpson's hands, the latter's head appeared above the surface of the water momentarily, and then both sank and were drowned. Bronze Medal and $250 to father, as needed. On the fly-leaf of the Commission report, the Carnegie Book of Heroes. the following statement of Mr. Carnegie in regard to the purpose for which the Here fuse was established is quoted. "I do not expect to estimate or create hardship by this fund, knowing well that her action is impugnable, but I do believe that if the here is injured in his bold attempt to save or serve his fellows, he and those dependent upon him should not suffer peculiarly thereby." Now the interesting thing about this report is not so much the individual heroism it reveals, as what it shows of good in the ordinary man of both races. The majority of heroes whose names are recorded in this book, are just common men whom we meet, working in the streets, on ships, in mines; men who are doing for us the hard, rough work of the world. But deeds of heroism are not confined to any class or to any race. More than that, this report shows that when the ordinary man or woman meets and recognizes human need, it makes little difference in what form or color that need presents itself. Sometimes, in discussing the relation of the race, certain persons have made the assertion that the thing which made the problem peculiarly difficult was that the races were divided by an instinctive distrust and hatred, the one for the other. Whether or not that is true in just the sense which the people who made the assertion mean, I shall not discuss here. It seems to me more important to call attention to the fact that there is in the average man a disposition to help the man who is next to him, his neighbor, whether he be white or black. In fact, the records of the Hero Fund not only show that the average man is, under normal conditions, interested in the welfare SOCIETY BADGES MEMBER LOCAL N91 I.U.J.H.

The real trouble is that the white man and the black man do not, have an opportunity to get next to each other, or rather they too often meet each other in such a way that each sees the worst, and fails to recognize the best that is in the other. I find that in most cases where white men abuse the Negro, or where the Negro complains about the white man, each is talking not about the individual white man or the individual Negro, whom he knows, but about a class of individuals which he has constructed out of the general impression of persons he did not know intimately and well. Where, as frequently happen in the South, black men and white men get to know each other and where the races understand each other, there is very little difficulty between them. It is in their individual relationship where men get to know each other by working together that we must look for a solution of the race problem in the South and elsewhere. Let me add in conclusion, that it does not seem to me that there is any reason for despair as long as there remain individuals among the masses of each race who are willing to risk their lives to serve and save individuals of the other.

The club is always kept busy trying in some way to broaden its scope, thereby placing it in full view of the public. Our methods of proceeding are not selfish, as is thought by many, but we will add, that after one makes close observation of us, our work and purpose, all doubt will be reeased. We have appealed for the sympathy of the public for quite a while, from which we are reaping wonderfully, for occasionally we are visited by those who are fully capable of rendering us aid materially, and whose knowledge of our work needs no commendation, for the tiny bits dropped with us are as seeds sown in fertile soil. The club was favorably surprised by a visit from Rev. DeBerry, of Springfield, Mass., who is visiting our city in search of rest, but through the strategy, we might add, displayed by our friend, Dr. Caruthers, who is always trying to lend his assistance to our club in many ways and occasions, we were able to hear this wonderful spirited man. He expressed himself as being favorably impressed with our work and his sympathy was ours. The club is formulating plans for an annual sermon to be had on the last Sunday of this month (26th), the place to be decided at a meeting of the committee on arrangements that is to meet Tuesday evening. H. Jordan Stockard, chairman; Messrs. Marshall, Scruggs and Anderson. The program for the past meeting was as follows: Life of Irving, B. S. Scruggs; selection, Quartette; "Success," T. W. Anderson; original poetry, A. R. Stockard. TO THE FARMERS OF TEN NESSFE By Capt. T. F. Peck, Commissioner of Agriculture. I want to talk this week to the farmer who is either indifferent or antagonistic to what he has styled book farming. I want us to get right down to our own experience and forget for the time that any books have been written on this subject. We will not go outside our own experience to prove the value of the things I want you to do and I will not ask you to begin with more equipment than should be found on every farm in the State of Tennessee. Every farmer when he gathers his crop would like to have 50 instead of 25 bushels per acre. It requires less work to prepare, cultivate and gather a crop on 10 acres than on 20 acres. Now I want to ask you farmers if you do not always make a better crop when you have sufficient rain than when you have a drouth? You have the same land but it produces better when you have the right amount of moisture. Now did it ever occur to you that you could regulate that matter so that you can have enough moisture for your crop even the 'it' does not rain during the growing season? The reason you do not have enough now is because your soil is not broken deep enough to hold it. You have been breaking your soil about four inches deep and below that is a hardpan that water cannot penetrate, so when the rains come the thin coat of soil gets so full of water that it washes easy and when dry weather comes it soon dries out until there is not sufficient moisture to keep your crop growing if it does not rain often, and you make very little crop. Another thing you know that nine out of every ten farmers do, that is to take an of the crop off of the ground and in many cases even rake up and burn the grass and cornstalks. You ask what good will they do. I will tell you. In most cases you find your land inclined to break up cloddy and the longer you work it, year after year, you find it more that way. I want to ask you if you ever find rich new ground that --- Hermitage Hardware Co. 309 Third Avenue, North, NASHVILLE, TENN. A Wonderful product of the Brewing Art.

No, because it is so full of vegetable matter the soil is loose and porous; it will hold a great deal more water than your tight land; it will hold more than double the water for the same number of inches of soil. Now if you want to put your ground in condition so it will not suffer for rain, you must fix it so it will hold moisture and enough of it to supply your crop while it is growing. A pint cup will not hold as much as a quart cup and ground ploughed four inches deep will not hold as much as ground vaporized eight inches deep, and tight cloddy land will not hold as much as loose loamy land, so if you want the moisture, instead of plowing four inches deep, let your plow down eight inches deep. To make your land loose, never burn anything, turn under all the vegetable matter, the more of it the better. Now when you get your land broke deep and the vegetable matter it will keep the water from running off and you can keep the sun from pulling it out if you will stir the surface thorough and often, do not deep, but thorough and often. Do your deep plowing before you plant, after you plant work the surface often as it should be and your crop will grow right on if it don't rain, because you have the moisture in the ground and it is doing its work. I have explained to you before that in every 100 pounds of green crops only about three pounds came from the mineral plant food in the ground, the rest came from the air and water. You do not have to bother about the air farther than to give it a chance to get into the ground and we have shown you how you can have an abundance of water. We have not asked you to use anything but what should be on every farm. Of course it is going to take more work on an acre to fix it right than to half prepare it, but it is work that will pay you better than the work has paid that you have been doing, and at the same time it is making your land better every year. You are getting the use of plant food that the way you have been working it, has been locked up. Now I do not ask you to break all the land on a big farm deen and add --- coaches and Jaggage cars will leave Nashville Tuesday night, June 4th, at 9:05 for the benefit of those living in the southeast territory.

You are entitled to the comforts of life, if you are willing to work for them. I want your work to bring its true reward and it will if you work intelligently. The suggestions I have made are simple enough for any man to follow and the reward will certainly justify the effort on your part. If the farmers of Tennessee would do the things suggested in this talk, plow twice as deep in preparing the land for crops, turn under vegetable matter to loosen the soil, select the right kind of seed, cultivate shallow but thorough and often, their crops would be double what they now are. Then if they would keep a cover crop of rye and crimson clover on their land in winter, to keep the land from washing and to turn under in the spring, their farms would become more fertile each year. The exercise of good common sense is the best fertilizer and the best book on farming ever written. Let's use it freely. It is hard for a farmer to understand all at once all that has been discovered by our scientists concerning improved methods is farming, but there is much that he can understand and prove its value from his own experience. No one has been able to grasp at once what it has taken years of patient to work out and prove. Do not try to do it all at once, but do no throw the whole proposition up because you do not understand it all, but I do want you to take up such propositions as you can grasp and put them in practice. I often talk to farmers about some of the practical things they can do to improve their lands and crops and they agree that it is right and would be of value, but they had gotten in the habit of the old way. Now are you doing yourself and those dependent upon you justice to continue a system that is driving you and them of the comforts and advantages you could provide? At least let's do what we can and every step we take will make the next one easier. Let us do our best. Jersey Butter At our new store fresh from the churn.

The Twelfth Avenue Theatre, has attractions this week away above the average. The acts are e can, and up to the minute. The management is exhausting every effort to give the patrons high class entertainment at living prices. There is nothing cheap about the house except the admittance fee. Seals and Fisher are artists of no mean ability. They do much clever work and are frequent applauded. Smith—well, that's enough said.

By adopting and maintaining such methods he has been able to build up a large patronage among the citizens of Nashville, for when they buy from him, they get what they order, when they order and as much as they order. Mr. Meador has many friends among the colored people of Nashville who can testify to his high-class, honest methods of doing business. Other members of the Overton & Bush Company are Mr. J. M.
