NEW PAPERS
FOR NASHVILLE
Vol. VII.
A. M. E'S WILL BRING THEM HERE.
Both Will Be Published in Nashville
Quarterly Review Permanently Located—General Conference Just Adjourned Favorable to this City—Nashville Becoming a Mecca for African Methodists Many Imurovements Contemplated in the House in Court
That Nashville is attracting the attention of the people throughout the nation was never more clearly evidenced than by the action taken by the last session of the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church which was held in Kansas City, Mo., this month; in that they voted that the Southern Christian Recorder, one of their weekly papers now being published in Columbus, Ga., shall be moved to Nashville and published here. This will bring to this city several thousand dollars of revenue annually in the way of subscriptions and at the same time advertisements and will greatly increase the post office receipts. The Southern Christian Recorder is the most popular organ in the A. M. E. Church, being located in the South where the bulk of the Negroes live, and naturally has the largest circulation. For several years the paper has been published in Columbus, Ga., by contract, which meant that the Church was expending all of the money for the printing of the paper outside of the Connection. A thorough canvass was made during the four years previous to the General Conference, and the men throughout the country were educated to see the folly of the Church spending all of this money with private concerns, and at the same time maintaining two houses, one in Nashville and one in Philadelphia. When the resolution was introduced at Kansas City to permanently locate the Southern Christian Recorder in Nashville, and that the same be published at the Sunday School Union, there was hardly an objection to the passage of the resolution.
This will mean quite a boost to the publishing interests here, as it is the plan of the Editor to increase the size of the paper. Being located as it will be at one of the publishing headquarters of the Connection, it will thereby rapidly increase in circulation.
The other paper that will in all likelihood be brought to Nashville is the Women's Recorder, which was created at the last session of the Conference. It was not decided by vote that the paper should be published here, but it is understood that the Editress, Mrs. Turner, prefers to have the paper published at one of the Church publishing houses, if the price is equal to what she is able to get in Atlanta, Ga. This being the only obstacle in the way, it is a foregone conclusion that the Women's Recorder will also come to Nashville. This paper also has a large circulation among the women, and quite a number of subscribers among the ministers and laymen of the Church. It bids fair to become one of the leading periodicals of the African Methodist Connection.
In 1908 the A. M. E. Review, a Quarterly Magazine published by that Church was moved here from Philadelphia, Pa. Dr. H. T. Kealing was then the Editor, but two years ago he resigned the editorship of the Review and accepted the presidency of Western University at Quindarola, Kns. Dr. Keeling agreed, however, to edit the magazine until the sitting of the General Conference when his successor would be elected. Prior to the sitting of the General Conference the aspirants for the editorship of the Review were asked to express themselves as to where they would continue the publication of the magazine. All aspirants were heartily in favor of continuing the publication here; but the delegation south was not content with the mere assertion on the part of a candidate aspiring for the honor, so a resolution was introduced that the Review be permanently located here, which was carried; and which means that not only the two papers above mentioned will come to Nashville, but that the Review will remain here.
The coming of the Recorder will give Nashville four of the General Departments of the Church, and if the Editress of the Women's Recorder homes here the number will be five. Added to this the new position of Secretary of the Evangelistic Bureau, of which Rev. S. L. Howard, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church of this city, was elected secretary, Nashville will have six of the General Officers of the A. M. E. Church located here. For it was understood that if Rev. Howard was elected he would remain in this city, which is his home. To accommodate all of these General De- (Continued on Page 8)

Methods of Campaign Outlined—
To Begin July First—Will Make
House to House Canvass—
Special Meeting Tonight—
Members Enthusiastic—
Outlook Bright.
On last Friday night the Negro Board of Trade at a regular meeting adopted a general outline of the plan promulgated for the purpose of raising a fund to aid in the purchasing the site for the Negro Library. A large number of the members were present, and were unanimous in the adoption of the plans as they had been prepared. A deal of enthusiasm was injected in the meeting by the simple and straightforward manner in which Mr. S. P. Harris, the promoter, outlined the methods that will be pursued when the campaign is put on in raising the fund. It was suggested that the campaign begin the 1st of July and that it be a short and vigorous one. It was the opinion of all that a short campaign would be conducive of better results than a long drawn-out one. The plan is to secure as large number of canvassers as possible, in order that the work will not be burdensome to anyone. These will go into every home and solicit from each one the small sum of fifty cents. It was suggested by some that probably there will be many who will desire to contribute more. It was made clear that no obstacle will be made in their way, but it was generally conceded that it would be best to make the amount fifty cents, in order that every one who should contribute could feel that they had measured up to the full requirements. A committee was appointed which will hold a special meeting Friday night, when the work of mapping out the city and organizing will be taken up. The committee hopes to complete the general outline at the meeting on Friday night and be able to make a full report to the Board of Trade at the next meeting. When the committee's work is done it is the purpose of the Board of Trade to issue a general appeal to the public, setting forth their reasons for making the campaign, and educating them up to the spirit of patriotic giving in such matters. The idea is taking hold of the public already, and the outlook is most promising for a handsome sum to be contributed for this worthy cause.

Bishop W. D. Chappelle made a ruling that was never before made by any Methodist bishop. He ruled that the General Conference has a right to accept or reject the appointments of the bishops as made by the Episcopal committee. Heretofore their assignments have never been questioned.

Bishop Tyree Goes East. Will Preside Over Historic First District.
One of the first announcements made by the Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress, who returned from an extended trip East this week, was to the effect that the arrangements for the special Sunday-School Congress train to leave Nashville on Tuesday night, June 4th, at 9.05 had been perfected. On Monday, of this week, after a conference with the district passenger agent of the L. & N. Railroad, the secretary stated that two standard sleepers and a high class day coach with every equipment to make up a special train as Nashville's part had been secured.
The train, according to the secre

Bishop Evans Tyree, of this city, was appointed by the General Conference to preside over the First District of that Church for the next four years. This is considered the leading district. The A. M. E. Church was established by Richard Allen in Philadelphia, Pa., and the first churches and conferences were in that section. It is believed that the next session, which will be the centennial celebration of the Church, will be held in Philadelphia in the church located on the historic spot where Richard Allen organized the Connection in a blacksmith shop. It is a high honor bestowed upon Bishop Tyree. People at home and abroad are applauding him to the

While there he made quite a reputation as a financeer, Paul Quinn College is located in that state. When Bishop Tyree was sent there the institution was found to be greatly embarrassed financially.

There will be a special sleepy from Cincinnati under the direction of Rev. Chas. D. Douglas and Rev. J.

The secretary stated that people from nearby towns, like Guthrie, Cedar Hill, Gallatin, Columbia and Franklin, would also take advantage of this special train arrangements.
Prominent among those of the city who have already given notice that they would attend the meeting will be representatives from the forty or more Baptist churches of the city together with J. W.

It is further learned that the Kentucky delegation that is going to come with the Cincinnati people will help to make up this special train. It will be remembered that both the chairman and secretary of the Congress Movement, together with the director, reside in this city, and that much enthusiasm over the movement is injected from year to year on this account.
vive the educational spirit in the members of the Church in that state, as the result of which he has raised for education in Texas over sixty-five thousand dollars in eight years. During his twelve years as bishop he has raised $161,975.68 dollar money. And fully thirty thousand dollars for other purposes, making a total of approximately two hundred fifty thousand dollars raised by this distinguished prelate for his Church during the twelve years he has served as bishop.

Bishop Tyre goes to the First District with the highest wish of his friends and with the hope that he will maintain the splendid reputation he has made up until the present time. Several of the bishops were clamoring for this district, but the delegates from the historic first fought like tigers for their choice as the successor of the late Bishop Gaines. He will leave in a few days to hold his first conference in this quadrennium. People of that section are awaiting his arrival with much expectancy.
NEW BISHOP CONSEGRATED
BY NORTHERN METHODOISTS MINNEAPOLIS
Thousands Sings Hymns in Streets Before Auditorium-Tears Fall From Eyes of Kneeling Candidates as Vows are said-Matter of Negro Bishop to be Voted on
Minneapolis, Minn., May 26.—In services remarkable alike for their simplicity and solemnity, eight bishops or general superintendents and two missionary bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church elected at the present session of the General Conference, this afternoon took the vows which bestowed upon them both the highest power and honor in the possession of the church. As a climax to the services of consecration, the entire board of bishops, including those newly elected, repaired to the grave in a local cemetery of Bishop Isaac Joyce to pay homage to his memory.
Those who by their repetition today of the vow, "I will so do, the Lord being my helper," took upon themselves the administration of the church's affairs, were:
General Superintendents—Homer C. Stuntz, New York; T. S. Henderson, Brooklyn; W. O. Shepard, Chicago; Naphthal Luccoo, Kansas City; F. J. McConnell, president Depauw University, Greencastle, Ind.; F. D. DeLee, Detroit, Mich.; R. J. Cooke, New York; W. P. Kirkfield, president Howard University, a Negro institution at Washington, D. C.
Missionary Bishops—John Wesley Robinson, Lucknow, India; W. P. Eveland, president seminary, Williamsport, Pa.
Hours before the auditorium was opened for the general public, an immense crowd filled the street before the police-guarded doors, and passed the time in the singing of hymns. When the curtain was raised, at 3 o'clock, upon the members of the board of bishops, the bishops-elect, their presenting friends and other officials of the church, not a seat was vacant, and scores had been turned away.
During the entire preliminary service, in which bishop after bishop took part in the reading of the Scriptures or of the ritual of consecration, there was a hush over the audience that permitted the low tones of the speakers to penetrate every portion of the building. And when on the final charge, the consecrating bishops, with hands laid upon the heads of the kneeling candidates, urged them to "be so merciful that ye be not remiss; so administrate discipline that you forget not mercy that when the Chief Shepherd shall appear you may receive the never falling crown of glory through Jesus Christ, our Lord," tears fell from the eyes of numerous bishops-elect upon the open pages of the Bible.
Dr. Stuntz was the first to be consecrated, the venerable Bishops Henry W. Warren and John M. Walden, both of whom now are retired, performing the ceremony. Others received the "laying on of hands," in the order in which they were elected, two ministerial friends presenting them, and the different bishops officiating in each case.
The Conference will next begin upon the closing of the business of the church, the principal event being the selection of editors of the various church papers. Whether a successor shall be elected to the position of Missionary Bishop W. F. Oldham, who has been chosen for a position of the board of foreign missions, also will be decided, as will the question of "Bishops of races and languages." This provides for the election of a bishop for a race of persons of that race, the question of a Negro bishop for the Negroes, churches of the South being that chiefly before the conference. If agreed to by the present session it must go before the annual conferences of the church in the next four years for approval and then must come up at the next quadriennial conference for final action.
NINTH ANNUAL MEETING
The ninth annual meeting of the State Association of Physicians, Surgeons, Dentists, Pharmacists, and Nurses of Tennessee will be held at the Auditorium of Collins Chapel, Memphis, Tenn., from June 4th to the 6th, inclusive. This meeting promises to be the greatest in the history of the association. There will be many subjects discussed by the leading physicians of Tennessee, which will not only enlighten those of the medical profession, but the public as well. Tuesday at 10 o'clock a. m. the association will assemble at the Masonic Temple, 20. South Fourth street, to receive the annual address of the President, W. A. Thompson, M. D., of Chattanooga.

TAKE ISSUE WITH THE GLOBE AS TO TURNER
Says Mob Was From Nashville.
And Contends That Shelbyville is a Logical Place for the School—Students Pledge to Return on Condition He is the President—Was Elected in 1911 for Two Years—Ground Broken for New Building—Outlook Promising.
In last week's issue of the Globe an article appeared relative to the presidency and other matters pertaining to Turner Normal College in Shelbyville, Tenn. It was stated in the article that there was some opposition to the school remaining in Shelbyville, due chiefly to the mob that outrageously shot to death three Negroes in that town a few months ago. Dr. Jones, President of the college, takes issue with the Globe and gives his reasons for so doing in the following communication:
Mr. Editor:
I am quite sure that you are only too willing to publish any correction of a mistake which may appear in the columns of your excellent paper. In your issue of he 24th, there are two or three things said which 1 wish to call attention to.
First, it was said in your local columns that the matter of whether or not the trustees would proceed to erect the new building on the grounds of Turner Normal, would come up before the next meeting of the Board. This statement is misleading, and is calculated to do considerable harm, as it will serve to create a state of unrest among the parents and students. The facts in the case are, that work has already practically begun on the new building. Ground has been broken for the foundation, and workmen are engaged to proceed with the construction of the same.
Second. I see that mention is made also of the "outrageous lynchings that occurred in Shelbyville a few months ago." It was further said that "no one seems willing to send their children to a town where such horrifying outrages are perpetrated." This statement is both untrue and damaging. The truth is, that mob of outlaws, who assaulted those three Negroes, were imported from Nashville; in other words, they slipped into town, and took the advantage of the nonsuspecting, lawabiding citizens of Shelbyville, and did their dirty work before it was barely possible to prevent it. Its occurrence did not cause scarcely a ripple on the wave of the social order between the races that day. We all knew that it was some of your Nashville outlaws, and there was more excitement outside of Shelbyville than there was. Newspapers always color things to suit themselves. To give an idea of the temper of the situation, I wish to say that I attended a lecture that same night at the Auditorium within less than four hours after the whole thing was over. I was the only colored person present, and was there by special invitation of a white citizen. The mob did not cause the slightest excitement among the students, and they had no reason to become excited. It happened just about the time that school was dismissed, and as many as fifty students went quietly and unmolested, right straight through town as they always did.
If any parents have ever, from that day to this, expressed themselves as being apprehensive of sending their children back to Shelbyville, I have never heard of it. And I think that they would be as apt to tell me as they would to tell the reporter of the Globe. I do know, however, that scores of the students voluntarily expressed themselves to me before leaving, as intending to return next fall. Third, mention was made of the election of the president for Turner Normal at the next meeting of the Board. There will be no election at the next meeting, unless for some cause, the present incumbent sees fit to resign, or for some cause the Board sees fit to declare the office vacant. The present incumbent was elected for two years at the last meeting, and is proceeding to discharge his duties in the usual way. I think it is due to the students, many of whose return, according to their statement, is contingent upon my continuation as president, that they should know that I have no intention of resigning for the present term.
Now, allow me to say, by way of parenthesis, I thank you very kindly for the pleasant things you have said about me, as to my candidacy for the editorship of the Southern Christian Recoder. But it is generally known that I was "brought out" by (Continued on Page 8)

We wish to thank all who helped in any way to make the rally a success. The May Fair last week was also a success, realizing $77.34. Rev. E. M. Seymour spent Saturday in Brownsville attending the B. Y. P. U. and Sunday-School Boards. The funeral of Mrs. Mary Ann Carr, who died Thursday, the 23rd inst., was held at St. John's Church last Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Carr was one of the most faithful workers in St. John's Church and her funeral was largely attended. The sermon was preached by Rev. S. W. Toles, assisted by Rev. Metcalf. A serious accident occurred at the funeral of Mrs. Carr Sunday. As the procession was about leaving the church, the horses drawing a carriage for George Hester became unruly, and dashing up to the sidewalk the carriage was turned over.

We regret very much to loose Mrs. Watson, as she was one of the most proficient teachers, and by her gentle disposition easily won the love of all her pupils and their parents. The Normal could not have done better in choice for matron over girls, and parents can
rest easy, if their daughters are in Mrs. Watson's care. Miss Bird Manson, one of our teachers, will spend several weeks in St. Louis with relatives and friends. Prof. C. H.

Amusements in Nashville.
For many years the Negroes of this city have complained that they were not provided with ample amusements. One of the complaints was that they had no parks to which they could go for recreation. Rev. Preston 'Taylor, our public-spirited citizen, was the first to answer this plea in the establishment of Greenwood Park, a place of amusement equal to any in the South, and the people are showing their unstinted appreciation. The city officials, led by Mayor Howse and the Board of Park Commissioners, decided that the Negro citizens of Nashville were entitled to a city park where those who want to spend a quiet hour could go and sit in the cool shades and read a book or magazine, or while away the time as they might see fit. Consequently a large tract of land, consisting of 34 acres has been purchased by the city and Nashville Negroes are satisfied along that line.
But there are others who seek pleasures and amusements of a different character. They like to go to, theaters and enjoy the plays. Mr. A. N. Johnson, one of our leading citizens, has responded to that demand with the Majestic Theater. Since its completion only two of the best amusement organization controlled by Negroes have been staged at that house; but it is with regret that the statement must be made that Nashville Negroes have not shown their appreciation of such shows. Their complaint is that the prices are too high. They never stop to count up the cost attached to such organizations as a troupe of dancers and ragtime singers, but it is a different proposition when one sets about to organize a high-class theatrical company. It costs thousands of dollars to equip and maintain a troupe of professional performers. Actors of class cannot be found on the street corners. Their services are in demand, for there are sections of the country where their services are appreciated; and if Nashville desires to have such shows she must make up her mind to pay the price.
Negroes have for years visited white theaters where they are compelled to go and take the "jim crow" service, entering through alleys and side-doors. They have complained of the treatment, but on many occasions these same people have paid as high as $1.00 and sometimes $1.50 to stroll through a muddy alley or through some side door and make their way to the last story in the house, and their strain their eyes and ears to see and hear a performance. But they throw up their hands as if horrified when they are asked to pay less money for choice seats in a theater of their own. They say that the same shows are put on in larger cities for much less money, but they get that in those cities which are several times the size of Nashville, a hundred to one persons attend every show. Again, they forget that shows are organized in these cities and that the matter of traveling does not enter into the expense. The white shows that come to the Vendome in Nashville do not charge the same price in New York and Chicago they do here, for the same reasons stated above, and those who have been close observers have noticed that the daily papers in this city have found cause to complain that white shows are not patronized here as freely as they must be if the best are to be secured. So, if the Negroes or Nashville desire high-class amusements they must make up their minds to pay high-class prices.
Taft's managers will doubtless find another batch of fifty or more delegates for him since the election in New Jersey. It is remarkable how much they can get out of defeat.
Business and Arrangements.
On a recent occasion a Negro man, who appeared to be fully saturated with the "soft drinks" such as are sold in Nashville, was heard to make this remark: "Niggers never have no business; white folks have business; Niggers have ranglements. A Nigger never was known to have no business; they just have ranglements" Most of the people who heard the remark laughed it off as a joke. Some were disgusted, in fact, all who heard the remark regretted that the man of their race was conducting himself so rudely in public. But there were some who heard the statement and stopped to think, and they asked themselves the question: "After all, is not there some truth in the assertion?" The man was not questioned as to what he meant by the statement, but the question suggests itself: "Is it possible for a man who is not educated to thoroughly understand business?" We submit that Negroes are yet in their infancy when considered as a race. Not quite fifty years from slavery; deprived of the opportunity to study business with the leading men of the country, they have been greatly handicapped in commercial pursuits. But they have nevertheless made great strides along business lines. Some of them are succeeding beyond doubt, but many have attempted and failed. Failures are not racial, for thousands of men who are members of other races that have had centuries of training, start in business only to make a complete failure; and, on the other hand, thousands succeed. Business is a pursuit or occupation that requires energy, time and thought; arrangement is the act of putting it in proper order.
One of the things on the part of the black man that has caused his undoing in the commercial world is the tendency to discredit education. Many of them reach the conclusion that experience will outlast education. This is a misnomer. Those men of the race who are not educated, and who have succeeded in business are creatures of circumstances. In this age we find men organizing combines and what we generally term trusts, and where the uneducated man counts his profits in dollars the educated man counts his in cents and mills. He is able to figure out the value of a mill, and can calculate what the mill will be worth to him in twenty years or fifty years. He then sets about to organize his business. He figures out the cost of every item. He knows before-hand what it will require to produce his stuff and what it will cost him to sell it. He is able also to estimate what a certain thing ought to be worth at a certain time. With his trained mind he is able to see in the distance the probable reverse that are likely to come to him. So he calculates on a margin of safety, and is therefore in a position to meet the reverses when they come. The uneducated man cannot do this. He goes on from year to year succeeding. Sees his cost and his profits, but he is not able to see the reverses that are likely to come, and is there by unable to prepare for that day. He is unable to see also that there is a greater danger in handling a big business than there is in handling a small one, and thereby he becomes drunk on success. As a result he awakes some morning to find him self a bankrupt and unable to extricate himself from the awful predicament he is in.
Education is a necessity in this age of big business, and no race can hope to permanently succeed in business or in any line when it reaches the conclusion that education is of no use.
Republican Presidential Outlook.
The fight for the nomination for President in the Republican party is overshadowing all things else in this country now. The tilt between ex-President Roosevelt and President Taft has been one of the most strenuous ever known in the history of this country. A few months ago it appeared that President Taft, with the federal office holders' machinery, had the nomination sewed up; but recent developments have changed the situation entirely. Mr. Roosevelt can be truly styled a "come-back," and it is clear that if the wishes of the people are respected he will be nominated at the National Republican Convention which will convene in Chicago in June.
No election is certain until it has been held. There are so many tricks in politics that the shrewdest men do not know what the outcome will be; but from all points of view it appears that Mr. Roosevelt will be able to break down the opposition to a third-term and be overwhelmingly nominated by the Republican National Convention as their standard-bearer. The Globe has held all along that he would be. He is the most popular man in America today. He is a courageous statesman and is a fighter of the first order
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1912.
He is that type of man that this nation admires, and if he is not nominated it will be one the greatest disappointments the American people have ever sustained.
superintendent Mt. M. day-School; paper onject for discussion,ney. Fifteenth, day-School. day-School. superintendent
The Taft managers continue to claim the nomination, but it is known that they are not basing their claim on the attitude of the people. So therefore, they must have in mind some deep laid scheme to rob the people of their wishes. Time only can tell what will be the outcome; but if the wishes of the people are trampled under foot by the delegates elected by them to the National Convention to carry out their wishes, it must be expected that there will be a revolt, and in all likelihood a democrat will be elected president of the United States. We do not believe, however, that the representatives of the people will so disregard their wishes and we believe that Mr. Roosevelt will be nominated in June and elected President of the United States in November.
Jack Johnson is in New Mexico training for his fight with Flynn; but he left his white wife in Chicago. J. Arthur is not as foolish as some people would take him to be. The Tennessee delegates to the A.M.E. General Conference say there were no dissensions in their ranks. We will have to accept their word for it, being as they are, for the most part, ambassadors of the lowly Nazarene.
In Louisville, Kentucky, a short while ago, the body of a white boy was found dangling at the end of a rope. Recent developments have convined the father of this bashrid convinced the father of the boy that he was lynched by his associates. This only goes to show that the mob spirit is weaving itself into the very fiber of the American people, and
The cost of living continues to soar. The people would appreciate a drop in the price of green peas and snap beans more right now than they can any man for the presidency of the United States.
unless a sentiment is created against lynch law, in a few years this country will be a nation of lawbreakers.
COMMUNICATION.
REV. GRAY DISSENTS.
Dear Mr. Editor:
Please allow me space in the columns of your paper to give a correct statement of some things that happened at the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church in Kansas City, Mo. You stated in last week's issue that a special meeting was called and that I. A. P. Gray, was deprived of my leadership of the Tennessee delegation, and that the honor was conferred upon Dr. G. L. Jackson. You were misinformed. These are the facts in the case: I was elected leader of the Tennessee delegation by the sufferage of my brethren and I filled the place as leader of the delegation of the Tennessee annual conference and served on the Episcopal Committee that makes the appointment of the bishops and I will hold said position for the next four years until another is elected in my stead at the close of the quadrennium.
The whole delegation, composed of the three conferences in the state, elected me chairman of the state delegation, and because two of the members of the West Tennessee Conference desired me to use my influence for six per cent. of the Dollar Money to be given to the C. P. A. department, of which Dr. Lewis was Secretary-Treasurer, and I refused to support the proposition, they tried to force me to do so, and before I would I offered my resignation as chairman of the state delegation and Dr. Jackson was elected in my stead. The delegation of the Tennessee annual conference was not divided only on railroad matters.
You also stated that we came back with empty honors. Dr. J. A. Jones was defeated as Editor of the Southern Christian Recorder on account of sympathy that was shown Dr. Allen in his old age. Dr. Roman laid down, so to speak, I mean pulled out of the race. Dr. S. L. Howard was elected Secretary of the Evangelical Bureau and was located at Nashville with headquarters at A. M. E. S. S. Union. The Southern Recorder was permanently located at Nashville, also the A. M. E. Review. Prof. Ira T. Bryant was re-elected by acclamation as Secretary-Treasurer. A. M. E. S. S. Union, and Dr. J. C. Caldwell, also as Secretary-Treasurer A. C. E. League. I am sure this is more honor than Tennessee had before, and neither do they look empty to me.
A. P. GRAY
MR. JOHNSON CONVALESCENT. All fear of a serious break down, which the close friends of Mr. A. N. Johnson, proprietor of Johnson's Undertaking Establishment, had entertained for him was vanished when, after four or five days' stay at the sanitarium in East Nashville, he was able to return to his home and resume his duties, although on a more reduced basis, as it is learned his physicians advise the utmost care.

Y. M. L. C.
A very encouraging audience witnessed the anniversary service of the Y. M. L. Club, that was very successfully rendered. The intense heat of the day was but a small obstacle in the attendance at large, for the audience was much impressed with the work of the club. The ambrosia of this delightful repast was not the members from the club, but the seremon delivered by the speaker of the occasion, Dr. W. S. Ellington. His text was "Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way." The instructiveness, inspiration, encouragement and timely advice met with the favorable comment that always exists in the hearts of the members. The program of the club meeting was very wholesome and the numbers of the same were as follows: Song, club; Life of Carlisle, U. S. Garnes; solo. H. Jordan Stockard; Life of Dunbar, Robt. Suggs. The club was pleased with the presence of the General Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., Mr. Sanders, entreats much sympathy for us, and said in regard to his work, that he wished it magnified that he did not want to conflict with the church work of any Christian young man, but he wanted to monopolize
the superfluous time of all the Christian young men, and those who are not Christians would aid them to become Christians.
Friday Review Club.
The club met at the residence of Mrs. Albert Watkins, Jefferson street, Friday, May 17th with the president presiding. After the routine of business, the roll was called and each member responded with a quotation from Dunbar. A splendid musical program was rendered as follows: Paper, Mrs. H. H. D. York; Vocal solo, Mrs. L. B. H. Bart; Recitation, Mrs. E. T. Brown; Instrumental solo, Mrs. J. W. Russell. The guests were then invited to the dining-room watch was beautifully decorated with ferns and roses, representing the club colors, and a three-course menu was served. The visitors present were Médames A. G. Price and B. Bailey. Each made a short talk.
Reunion and Birthday Dinner
Last Monday, to the delight and surprise of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Manson, Eleventh avenue, North, a notable birthday dimmer and family reunion took place. The occasion was the nineteenth anniversary of Rev. B. B. Manson, of Lebanon, Tenn., a respected, retired minister of the M. E. Church. He was accompanied from Lebanon to this city to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Manson, his grand children, by Miss Nancy Fite, mother of Mr. Jerry Manson, Mrs. Alberta Ward, Mrs. Sallie Seay, and Mrs. Nannie McGregor, daughters; Mr. Jas. McGregor, son-in-law; and Miss Edna McGregor, great-granddaughter, sat around the sumptuous table and ate freely of the healthful viands and talked of old friends of by-gone days. While the older members were thus engaged the younger set, with little Edna McGregor, Jerry Manson, Jr., Olander Manson and Pearl, all great-grandchildren, romped and played in the yard. Late in the day Mr. and Mrs. Will Oden came, Mrs. Oden was a Miss Susie Manson, and later still came Mrs. Luella Jones and Mrs. Nora Haynes, cousins, who live in East Nashville. Dr. J. A. Lester was a caller at the Manson home and had the pleasure of the association of those life-long friends. His earliest recollections of Sundayschool and church service were had under the guidance of this honored and useful minister of the Gospel. May Rev. B. B. Manson and his descendants live many more years, and by their useful lives continue to bless mankind.

CONGRESS SUBJECTS FOR 1912
Select the Subject that you want to write upon for the Tuskegee meeting of the Sunday-School Congress. As has been the custom, the Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress has announced that the special committee, which has charge of the selecting of the subjects for each year's Congress, has named this year only ten subjects. This is the smallest number of subjects ever selected for any of the previous Congresses, but it was brought about, says the Secretary, on account of the desire to devote more time to exhausting the important subjects before the meeting each year. He stated that two subjects would be discussed each day, hence only ten would be required for the five days
1. The Responsibilities of the Sunday-school as a Spiritual Organization.
2. The Specific Requirements of the Primary Class.
3. The Organized Class the Most Effective for for the Adolescent and Adult.
4. The Sunday-school Teachers' and How Best Conducted.
5. Of What Special Benefit are the Metokas and Galedus?
6. The Denominational 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 Church.
9. The Sunday-school Teachers Most Difficult Problems and their Solutions.
10. The Sunday-school, a Missionary Recruiting Station.
It is requested that those who desire to write on any of the above named subjects
select the same, sending in the number with their name and address to

Jack had just appeared on the plat:

Jack's trip from Chicago here was
a fast one, and yet a hard one for the
champion because each time the San-

stopped at a station he was met by
a big crowd and responded each time
to calls for a speech.

ceived was in Galesburg, Ill, The

To Win Quick as Possible,
Jack did not have much time to do
much talking, but he talked the few
minutes the train stopped here, He
takes the big fight July 4th serlous-
ly and is much wrought up about a
certain story published by a knocker
who says Jack will let the ight go
fifteen rounds because of the moving
pictures,
“I want the public to know that t
am going to beat Flynn just as soon
as I can and the pictures are going
to have nothing to do with it. I get
300,000, win, lose or draw, and that is
enough money for a man in any fight.
The pictures will be worth just as
much, no matter what round 1 win :n
and therefore I am going to beat
Flynn as soon as I am able to,
“T have advised my friends to bet
that the fight will not go fifteen
rounds, and of course I believe I
will win, I would not be advising
them if I did not feel confident of
beating Flynn within that time.
"Tam not underestimating the
ability of Flynn, I realize that he

MORE MONEY FOR FISK UNIVER
SITY.
J. Pierpont Morgan Promises to Give the Last $25,000 Necessary.
From Europe comes a letter from a great captain of finance that when all but the last $25,000 is raised, he will put on the cap.
Such is the welcome message received by President George A. Gates of Fisk University.
The following has been received from Paris, France, and forwarded to Dr. Gates in North Carolina, where he is spending some time for his health:
"Hotel Bristol, Paris, Addressee Telegraphique, Bristollotel-Paris, May 14, 1912.-Dear Mr. Gates: I have received your letter and in reply would state that I am prepared to subscribe the last $25,000 to the fund which the Fisk University has to raise to secure the gift of $60,000 from the General Education Board. it being understood that I shall not be called upon to pay the amount unless the total sum raised is sufficient to secure the above mentioned gift."
Yours very truly.
(Signed) "J. PIERPONT MORGAN,
"Geo. A. Gates, Esq., President Fisk
University."
The amount required to fulfill the
conditions made by the General Education Board is $240,000, more than half of which has been raised before this subscription was made by Mr.
Morgan, consequently there remains less than half the sum still to be raised.

TAKEN BEFORE HIGHER COURT.
Negro Pythlians Carry Suit to United States Tribunal.
Washington. D. C., May 28.—Hon. John H. Dewitt, a leading attorney of Nashville, Teen, has formally entered the appearance of the Supreme Court in suit of the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias, the latter a colored organization, the Negro Pythian had been enjoined at Tennessee courts from using the name or instignia of supreme lodge of the white Pythians and under decree of court was given six months in which to liquidate and wind up its affairs in Tennessee. The Negroes secured an appeal to the United States Supreme Court by writ of error. It will probably be some eight or ten months before the case is tried on its merits. A similar suit is here also from Georgia, in which Judge Alton B. Parker repreme Mr. Dewitt was sworn in before the Supreme Court yesterday afternoon. He is not a stranger in Washington, having attended Columbian Law School here some years ago, graduating at that institution and having many warm friends here.
SOME INDUCEMENTS AGRICULT
TURE OFFERS THE YOUNG
By Hoyt N. Hardeman. The term agriculture is as broad in its meaning as the term engineering. And it deals with a subject much more vital to man. Agriculture has to do with the cultivation of the soil for the production of material's for food and clothing. It also embraces every other industry properly practiced in connection with soil cultivation, such as the breeding and feeding of live stock, dalrying, bee keeping, fruit culture, vegetable growing, and poultry farming. Farming is the business end of agriculture. It is the growing of crops in garden and field, the breeding and care of live stock, and the marketing of these products.
What vocation could be more interesting and honorable than farming? There is nothing that measures up to it, for it is no less an art to raise products profitably than it is a necessity that human wants be met. The improvement of animal and plant life through selection and breeding is not only fascinating and interesting, but requires all the skill and good judgment that can be had from study and practice.
In this great state of ours we can produce any crop that can be grown in any state in the union. We sometimes boast that we could build a Chinese wall around our borders and live without aid from the outside world. Tennessee is a state of many resources. Our products vary from those of a southern clime to those of a northern clime. They are in great demand from the pineries of Canada on the north, to the flowery fields of Florida on the south, and westward beyond the grand Rockies.
Attractions of Farm Life.
As a successful business farmer, your chief tie to farm life is the almost irresistible attraction of large cash returns on your investment. There are other attractions and benefits of scarcely less importance than will draw you toward the farm if you consider them. The cry of "back to the soil" conveys many pleasant ideas nowadays, for the social and intellectual life of the farm is immeasurably more attractive than in your father's day. Few live men, or have lived, that cannot find on a farm scope for all the intellect and romance. The skill, the knowledge, the experience necessary to make the soil yield abundantly, transmitting wealth, health and happiness, will preoccupy the best mental equipment you can afford. Farming is the one occupation upon which all others depend. People have a way of wanting their two or three meals a day and the farm must furnish the wherewithal.
If you as a farmer are at all successful, you will be able to command your own time and lead an independent life. Unlike the workers in other businesses you will have no fear of being displaced to cut down expenses or to make way for a younger person. Your standard in life may be as high or higher than that of people in the city, and you will get good fresh food that is neither wilted nor frozen. There is no calling in which success is anything like so certain as in farming, when a man is trained and prepared to follow it. As a farmer, you can carry out your own policies and think and express your own thoughts and shine your own life.
Comforts and practical conveniences in farmers' homes are now common. Simple, yet effective lab-saving devices for supplying hot and cold water, heat and light, and power are introduced into the homes everywhere at a very low cost. And a home in the country with these conveniences is the best possible home. The farm life of the present has many advantages over the isolation of earlier days. The multiplication of smaller farms is bringing about good roads, more schools, nearer neigh-

bors, more farm telephones, more effective churches, accessible libraries, improved mall facilities and a social environment that is impossible where farms are large.
What happens to the old time farmer that tills his soil and plants his seed, that says "if it grows, it grows, and if it don't, it don't?" That thinks there is nothing new under the sun, and that only physical exercise and long hours count? What happens to this man is that with the handicap of a mortgage on his farm and the fog of ignorance in his brain, he simply drops out of the procession and his farm is added to the already too long list of examples of how farming ought not to be done, or as a last struggle, he becomes the successful farmer's hired hand.
To-day, thanks to the practical education, the greatest success comes from brains and not from brute force, and in consequence farming is a greater pleasure than ever before. The life of the modern farmer has attractions that must appeal to your ambitions. First of all is the joy of making things grow—not at random but in accordance with your will. Then there is life in the open air, the source of vigor and strength and enjoyment and more than all else, the absolute independence impossible to any but the producer that needs solicit no patronage, but sells to the world's markets.
Modern agriculture—scientific agriculture—offers to you today, young man, more opportunities than any other calling. It matters not whether you grow corn, cotton, tobacco, live stock or fruit, you are the peer of every man, the superior of most, provided you only make the ebst of your opportunities.
The opportunity for success is
open to you for acceptance. It is up
to you—will you take it?
GRAND CLOSING OF PUBLIC
SCHOOL.
Special to the Globe.
Columbia, Tenn. May 26.—The city public school of Columbia had a most magnificent closing exercise at Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church Friday night, May 24, and those who officiated in the exercise showed that much pains and industry had been given them, the music, which is under the supervision of Miss Beatrice Gordon, was simply grand; the recitations, essays and orations were all on creditable subjects of timely consideration. To have witnessed these exercises by one who possesses any race pride whatever, would have been the means of blighting any doubt as to race progress and we feel that the entire faculty should be congratulated upon the noble work which they are doing in this community.
In addition the graduating classes were addressed by Dr. W. S. Ellington, of Nashville, Tenn., who spoke for nearly an hour, setting forth good advice in every word that fell from his lips, he having taken for his subject "Men that the age is calling for." In part he said that "he who succeeds despite the difficulties is the man or woman who becomes the hero or heroine of the hour; and as a means of an illustration the doctor referred to slavery, stating that "prior thereto our forefathers were groping in the dark jungles of Africa, ignorant, with no books, with no language, without any knowledge of the true God, worshiping as it were idols of wood, stone, etc., but slavery with all of its untold tortures of misery and woe, has placed us in reach of that beautiful, rich English language. We are to-day in possession of books to read, to study; we are learning to master that richest of all languages. We no longer fall down to worship idols, but with a submissive heart, we look to that God of all civilized Christendom."
The Doctor's address was full of wholesome advice and instruction and in his conclusion he left an ever bright thought for the consideration of those who hope to succeed, and that is, they must.

BOWLING GREEN (KY.) NOTES.
Rev. John B. Winrow, M. D., died recently. His remains were brought home and interred in the family lot at Mt. Morlah Cemetery. The funeral was conducted from State Street Baptist Church, where he was a member, by Rev. Robt. Mitchell, assisted by Rev. H. D. Carpenter and Rev. Williams. He leaves a wife, six children, a mother, two sisters and a brother to mourn their loss. The Globe correspondent has known the deceased from boyhood and looks back with pleasure to the many hap py moments spent together in our base ball career. The deceased and his widow, Mrs. Pearl Mayo Winrow are both graduates of the State Street Public school, and are held in high esteem by white as well as the colored citizens of Bowling Green.
Mr. Tom Garrison and uncle, Tilford Arnold, two of Bowling Green's pioneer citizens, died of old age and were buried last week. Mr. Sam and Laura, children of Tilford Arnold, are here to attend their father's funeral. Mrs. Henry Hall, who recently underwent an operation in Nashville, is reported as improving. Prof. Wm. Wolf, who attended the great Presbyterian Assembly in Louisville, reports a pleasant and successful trip. He has succeeded in securing aid for the Bowling Green Academy from the white Presbytery. Among the host of applicants for county teachers' certificates examined this week was Lillian Lillian Carpenter, high school senior, who passed with a general average of 85 2-7 per cent. Capt Frierson will take up his abode again in this city in the near future. T

DR. JONES DISSENTS.

my host of friends, and that I did not "come out." I have said all along that my heart was now centered on the development of Turner Normal College. Students and parents all over the state, protested most vigorously against my accepting any position that would take me away from Turner. Even my ardent supporters in the campaign were constantly halting to ask the question, "Jones, but what is going to become of our school?"
You rightly say that my election was conceded, not only by Tennessee but by the connection, as every delegate and visitor to the General Conference will attest. But when Dr. G. W. Allen, the present editor, failed of election to the bishopric, and came back, asking that his brethren do not turn him out to starve; that he was too old to engage in any other ministerial work at his advanced age; and that I was still young and already had an honorable and paying position, the wave of sympathy was irresistible; and

Dr. Allen was swept back into office to save a calamity. I hope you will not charge Tennessee with being unfaithful to my cause. They stood by me to the last ditch. The "dissensions" spoken of in your paper had absolutely nothing to do with my defeat. In fact the "dissensions" in Tennessee, did not contribute to a single Tennessee candidate's defeat. When it came to voting, they voted solidly. In all, we had a great meeting. J. A. JONES.
MISSES MYRA AND HELEN
JONES.
The people of Nashville are planning to entertain Misses Myra and Helen Jones, of Cincinnati, who will be in attendance at the Sunday-School Congress at Tuskegee, and will stop over two days in Nashville en route to their home. They are the accomplished daughters of Major Jos. L. Jones, Supreme Worthy Counselor of Court of Calanthe, and also head of the Central Regalia Company. The mother of the Misses Jones is a native Tennessee, having been born in what was then known as Edgefield. The two young ladies have never visited their mother's home. While here they will be the guests of Mrs. Henry A. Boyd, 1603 Harding street. They will arrive Tuesday, June 11th, from Tuskegee.

partments it will be necessary for the A. M. E. S. S. Department to enlarge its quarters. It is learned that the manager of the House at 206 Public Square will have to fix up offices for them. In doing so it will be necessary to make many changes. In addition to the offices it was learned that Mr. Bryant has under consideration the establishment of a general book house on the Square, which will mean that the A. M. E. S. S. Union will become a general center for Negroes. The present building is specially adapted for a book house, and its central location and excellent quarters will enable them to supply a long-felt want in this city. It will also be a convenient place for the country people to purchase books and stationery when they come to market. Thousands of Negroes are in the city every week selling their produce on the Public Square, but when they need anything in the line of a book, writing pencil or paper they are compelled to leave their teams or to carry them to a stable and pay for hitching; but with a book and stationery

store located at the Public Square it will require two or three minutes' walk from their wagons to the Publishing House to secure what they want. Mr. Bryant has had this under advertisement for some time, but did not think it advisable to take this step until after the General Conference. It is contemplated now that within a few months Nashville will have on the Public Square a full-fledged book store.
Y. M. C. A. HAS NEW HEAD QUATERS.
The Colored Men's Branch of the Nashville Y. M. C. A wishes to make the following announcement: The Board of Directors has secured an excellent room in the Pythian Temple, 428 Fifth avenue, North, as headquarters for the association. All men are cordially invited to call and see the new headquarters and get acquainted with the secretary. He will be gad to make known to you the plans of the work, in its new beginning. Any aim at outward show is discouraged. In short the association at present has but little to offer the young men demanding an immediate return of value received. Nashville, with a Negro population of thirty thousand, greatly needs a well-equipped Y. M. C. A.—one of the greatest movements of modern times, excluding the church, for helping to save the whole man. Men who have faith in the future of the work are invited to line up for a strong and lasting fight in behalf of the young men of the city.
Time, careful thought and planning and money are greatly needed. All Christian young men are called upon to give what time they can spare from their respective churches to this work of helping the fellows who are vicious and low, not so much because they will to be, but because of the defects of the institutions governing the groups of which they are members—such as the home, city and state.
As an auxiliary of the church this association pledges itself to work for the improvement of the spiritual, mental, social, physical and economic condition of young men.
The following is its platform:
"The Nashville Young Men's Christian Association shall seek to unite those young men who, regarding Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, according to the Holy Scriptures, desire to be his disciples in their doctrine and in their life, to associate their efforts for the extension of his kingdom among young men and with
