Argenta, Ark., May 30, 1912.—St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern passenger train No. 223, leaving Memphis at 9:20 a. m., and due in Little Rock at 3:55 p. m., was derailed at 3:45 yesterday afternoon just inside the yards, about two and one-half miles from the depot, three coaches being almost demolished and six persons slightly injured. The accident is believed to have been caused by a split switch. The engine and baggage car passed over safety, but the next car left the track, followed by the two rear coaches, and bumped along the ties for a short distance and were "sideswiped" by a string of freight cars standing on an adjoining track. The entire side of one coach was torn away, another was reduced almost to kindling wood and a third was badly damaged. The train, which was in charge of Conductor William Green, of Memphis, and Engineer W. F. Wilson, of Little Rock, was brought to a standstill as quickly as possible, and news of the wreck telephoned to the general offices of the Iron Mountain in Little Rock. A wrecking and relief train was made up and quickly dispatched to the scene, having on board Dr. W. F. Smith, division surgeon, M. E. McCaskill and Theodore Friedman, who cared for the injured.
In the meantime, passengers and the train crew did what they could to relieve those who had been hurt. As soon as the injured were removed, the work of clearing away the wreckage was started, and the southbound track, which was torn up for a distance of about 200 feet, was temporarily repaired, and the track was clear by midnight.
All the passengers were more or less snaken up by the cars leaving the track and the impact with the freight cars, and it was an exceedingly narrow escape from a very serious wreck.
List of Injured.
The injured were as follows:
The injured were as follows:
Conrad Lukee, white, 2715 Gaines street, Little Rock, hand cut by glass.
Henry Goss, white, Wynne, Ark., several cuts on head, cuts on left arm and right elbow and shoulder sprained.

W. C. Morgan, news butcher, 289 South Maine street, Memphis; bruises on chest and lower limbs; taken to Hoffman house.
Mrs. Mabel Kelly, Nashville, Tenn., niece of Hon. J. E. Bush of Little Rock, bruised about the body; taken to home of friends in this city.
Dr. J. T. Wilson, Nashville, Tenn., slight bruises and sprains; taken to 1723 Battery street, Little Rock.
DR. WILSON RETURNS HOME
GIVES OUT STATEMENT
ABOUT WRECK.*
Dr. J. T. Wilson, who was injured in the Iron Mountain train wreck, reached home Monday night, badly battered up. He shows signs of having been through a trying ordeal. With a seen by a Globe representative, he had the following to say about the wreck:
"I was on my way to Red Bird, Okla, to perform an operation on the Mayor's wife. When we were within two miles of Argenta, Ark, across the river from Little Rock, our train into an open switch, on which was a long chain of freight cars. The freight cars tore the whole right side of the coach into kindling wood. The only cause that prevented death to call of us was that every person, even the butcher and porter, were seated along the left side of the coach, and thereby saved their lives. An iron brook in the seat I was occupying and cut my ankle and hand very crudely; flying wood struck me in the back and on the head. I arrived in Nashville last night in good spirit though disfigured. I was glad to get home alive. I will get out in few days."
Dr. Wilson said: "Mrs. Mabel Kelly, wife of Mr. J. H. Kelly, and baby boy, were badly hurt. They were carried in an ambulance to the home of Mr. J. E. Bush. She and the baby were cut about the face and body by flying glass and timber."

NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY JUNE 7, 1912.
THOUSAND AT THE CONGRESS
SUNDAY-SCHOOL WORKERS AT WORK.
Tuskegee Grounds Literally Covered.
Booker T. Washington Deivers Welcome Address—School of Methods is the Plan and Operation — Whole Congress Turned Over to Them—Meeting Success from the Start.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., June 6.—Special trains with several thousand enthusiastic people, and carrying Congress delegates, from every section of the United States, arrived at Tuskegee Institute yesterday. This has given the Sunday-School Congress the greatest boost it has ever received. The meeting opened under the most promising and flattering auspices. A generous welcome was given the Congress delegates by Dr. Booker T. Washington, followed by welcome addresses from representatives from forty of the Baptist churches in the county of Macon, which made the opening day a memorable one.
A noticeable feature of the program is that out of the ten subjects to be discussed during the meeting, dealing with every feature of Sun-day-school work, only two will be
REV. R. H. BOYD, D. D., Father of the Sunday-School Congress, discussed each day, according to the announcement made by the secretary of the movement. General sessions will be held in the forenoon of each day and the departmental meetings in the afternoons.
The departments that will claim the attention of the workers each day are the Metoka, an organized class of young men, the galena, an organized class of young women, Superintendents' Conference, Advanced and Primary Teachers' Conference, with the Cradle Roll and Home Departments, while one hour and a half each morning and the same amount of time each afternoon will be given to special Bible Conferences.
The entire campus and buildings of Tuskegee Institute, according to Principal Washington, have been turned over for the work of the Sunday-School forces of the United States, represented in this seventh annual session of the Sunday-school Congress, which has been acclaimed by all the world as the greatest school of Sunday-school methods in existence.
One would hardly call the meeting a Chautauqua, as it is void of* the Chautauqua feature and yet thousands of banners, pennants white Congress caps and a chorus of 200 voices resemble very much a Chautauqua, still the entire legislative or parliamentary usages are left out and the whole is reduced to an instruction camp along Sunday-school lines. Many experts, who have made a study of Sunday-school work and conditions are here and will remain throughout the week.
The officials of this movement are as follows: Chairman, C. H. Clark Nashville, Tenn.; Vice Chairman, J. P. Robinson, Little Rock, Ark.; Secretary, H. A. Boyd, Nashville, Tenn.; Recording Secretary, R. B. Hudson, Selma, Ala.; Assistant Secretary, J. M. Easterling, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Blackboard Critic and Arbiter, W. S. Elington, Nashville, Tenn.; Chorister and Superintendent Teacher Training Course, N. H. Plus, Indianapolis, Ind.; Conductor of Bible Conferences, John E. Ford, Jacksonville, Fla.; Superintendent Missionary Conference, William Beckham, Austin Texas; Conductor Superintendent's Conference, S. H. Johnson, Nashville, Tenn.; Conductor Home and Cradle Roll Department, Miss Lorilla E. Bushnell, Chicago, Ill.; President National Metakas, C. W. Boyd, Charleston, W. Va.; President National Galedas, Miss Cora B. Annis, Cleveland, Ohio.
SOUTH DAKOTA JOINS THE SWELL.
Goes to Swell Strivof Victory.
Taft Not Wanted by the People—
Tnird Term No Garer—Leading
Papers Concede the Nominat-
ion — Delegates Flopping
Over—Alabama and Maryland in Early.
South Dakota is now tucked away safely in the Roosevelt grip, that state having gone for the ex-president in the primary election held Tuesday, June 4th. From latest returns it is apparent that Col. Roosevelt will sweep the state, and that a solid Roosevelt delegation will be sent to Chicago. This is another link in the long chain of victories that the strenuous one has achieved since he threw his "hair in the ring." In fact, every state in which primaries have been held, with one exception, since the memorable Columbus speech, have gone overwhelmingly against the president. It is evident from the expiration of the people that Mr. Taft is no; wanted for president, and that the American people have made up their minds to ignore the "third term" custom and elect a man for president in whom they have the utmost confidence.
The leading papers in the North and East, irrespective of politics or their preference as to man are conceding Mr. Roosevelt's nomination. The Southern delegations, as was to be expected, are beginning to flock to him. News comes from Alabama that two delegates are bold enough to state that they are going to support Mr. Roosevelt. From Maryland comes the information that two of the strongest delegates from that state have given out that they will not support Mr. Root for temporary chairman, which means that they will desert the Taft band wagon and climb into the roosevelt cart, which appears to them to be drawn by nobler steeds. It looks like Roosevelt on the first ballot from every indication.
TENNESSEE PYTHIAN BOOSTER ATTRACTION ATTENTION.
OTHERS FOLLOWING SUIT
The originators of the Pythian Booster Campaign built wiser than they knew. The spirit of the affair has been emulated even in faraway lands. Panama, where J. M. H. Graham, formerly of Clarksville, is Chancel or Commander of "Roosevelt" Lodge; Manila, in the Philippine Islands, has recently organized several strong lodges and the prospect is very bright for many additional ones to be set up at once.
All over the country the Pythianism is contagious. In Tennessee over one thousand five hundred new members have been added up to May 1st. Sir A. W. Fite, with a host of able Heuteanists, is energetically pushing the booster campaign to a successful termination. It is believed that by the convening of the Grand Lodge at Murfreesboro in July that the coveted two thousand five hundred will be secured. Damon Lodge No. 2, of Nashville, added 28 new members last month. A large number will be initiated at their next meeting. This lodge is hustling for a record. J. W. Blaine, the C. C., is a tireless worker in the cauce of the fraternity.
Other lodges over the state continue to send very flattering reports. The Grand Lodge which convenes at Memphis August 8th will be the most largely attended one in the history of this jurisdiction, from what can be earned every lodge in Tennessee will be repressed.
Dr. R. F. Boyd, Grand Worthy Counsellor of the Court of Calanthe, says the outlook for the ladies department is more than pleasing. He is urging the membership to renewed efforts all along the line. He is strongly supported by the membership everywhere.
Supreme Chancellor Green sends following:
New Orleans, La., June 1.
Sir A. W. Fite, D. D. G. C., 520 Fourteenth Avenue, North, Nashville, Tean.
Dear Sir and Brother—I am in receipt of a circular soliciting members for the Order in your state and note your efforts in trying to secure the membership. I wish you success and highly commend your efforts in trying to strengthen the Order.
Wishing your jurisdiction success,
I am
Yours fraternally,
S. W. GREEN, S. C.

Tenn. Doctors Meeting In This City.
Gathered from Every Part of the State—Negro Ably Represented by Their Professional Class—Memphis Man for President—Lively Contest Anticipated—Meeting a Success.
Special to the Globe.
Memphis, Tenn., June 5.—Speaking to the Tennessee Colored Medical Association in session here, Mr. Frank H. Bothel, an expert of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry, said:
"That physicians, knowing the source of pure milk supply, should not hesitate to frankly recommend such milk and in every measure assist in the support of dairies complying with the standards set by law."
Mr. Bothel also declared that the physicians should be just as open and frank in their condemnation of sources of milk supply which they knew was below standard and probably dangerous.
Mr. Bothel explained that the expenses of maintaining a certified milk plant were so heavy that unless the owner received the support of the physicians and the community at large it was practically an impossibility for him to operate for any length of time.
"I investigation has shown us," he declared, "that about 75 per cent. of the certified milk plants are operating at no profit. A great many of them are losing heavily."
Another point strongly emphasized by Mr. Bothel was that certified milk dairymen were often inclined to invest too much in their machinery. It is not so much the elaborate equipment, he declared, as the cleanliness and care that produce good certified milk. He told of visiting one plant near Memphis where every care and precaution was taken until it came to the actual bottling of the liquid. "It was on this last, finishing touch," he explained, "that this dairyman undid all of the good he had accomplished. The bottles hadn't been cleaned sufficiently and were contaminating the product."
Mr. Bothel also explained several systems of purifying milk for the market. He was very complimentary to the spirit and civic pride that prompted the appointment of the milk commission. This should be a great boon to the city, he said.
At the conclusion of his talk Mr. Bothel was accorded a vote of thanks.
The Negro race is ably represented in the men who compose the State Medical Association. The papers read and the discussions of the same show that the Negroes are taking a deep interest in the science of medicine. The sessions are all interesting, even to the lay people.
It is understood that a Memphis man will be chosen president. Just who will be elected is a matter of conjecture for this city is well supplied with talent.
MR. PHIL H. BROWN HIGH UP IN
THE COUNCILS.
Chairman Harry S. New has notified Phil H. Brown of his appointment as First Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms of the Republican National Convention. Senator Bradley recommended that Mr. Brown be given the place. The recipient of the honor organized the colored Trust committee
in Kentucky and did some effective bureau work in behalf of the President in the recent campaign in Kentucky—Louisville Herald.
Mr. Brown is a great favorite in Nashville and his many friends here will learn with much satisfaction of if his appointment.

FISK 30 YEARS AGO AND NOW
FISK 30 YEARS AGO AND NOW
GROWTH FROM ONE TO TEN BUILDINGS.
Big Celebration Is Planned For 11th.
Many Changes in Scenery—Community Improvements—Interesting Baseball Game — Preachers' Symposium—Future of Fisk Will be Discussed Freely—Great Interest Shown.
Fisk University in 1912 as compared with Fisk in 1882 expresses a great evolution. The writer entered Fisk as a student thirty years ago when Jubilee Hall was the only building and served all the purposes of the school. Surrounding Jubilee were farms and barren fields, and the little horse car on old "Line street" (now Jo Pohnston avenue) dropped one nearly a mile from the school. To-day Fisk has ten handsome buildings, a charming campus and a fine group of teachers and students who constitute the center of a surrounding community of the best citizens of Nashville.
The Trustees of Fisk are keeping abreast with present-day progressiveness. In the last year many improvements have been made, chief among them being concrete walks on the entire west side of the grounds from Jefferson to Hamilton streets, also on both sides of Harding and Jackson streets from Seventeenth to Eighteenth avenue. The beautiful gravel promenade on the west side of Seventeenth avenue remains to remind those of the early days of Fisk of the happy hours spent on that notable stroll-away. A large number of the alumni are expected to visit this year's commencement. Already the advance is assembling.
Two special events in connection with the Fisk commencement are attracting attention. The first of these is the extraordinary ball game to be played on Tuesday afternoon between the professional men and business men of Nashville. Those "expert" ball tossers who represent the professional men of the city are announced as follows: Prof. J. W. Work, c; T. B. Hardiman, p; Dr. J. F. A. Lester, ss; Dr. S. S. Caruthers, 1b; Dr. F. A. Stewart, rf; Dr. J. W. Bright, cf; Dr. M. V. Boutte, c; Dr. J. C. Russell, 2b; Dr. F. G. Smith, cf; Fred Randals, 2b; Dr. G. H. Bandy, ss; Dr. W. E. Gray, 2b; Dr. J. B. Singleton, rf; Dr. J. A.

MISS GARRETT GOES TO CHICAGO
Nashville is not to be favored with a return of all of her teachers who are filling honored positions in other state. The information has just reached this city that Miss Isora a. arrett, who has been for the past two years a member of the faculty of the St. Joseph City High School, and who is so well and favorably known in the city, will spend the summer in Chicago, the guest of Mrs. S. V. Lofton, formerly of this city. While in Chicago Miss Garrett will take a special post course at the University of Chicago, returning to her work in Missouri in September.

FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1912.
Absolute Segregation Impossible.
There are some men in this city
who are inclined to the opinion that
all of the Negro citizens within a few
years will be segregated in Northwest
Nashville, Some of the closest ctu-
dents in Civic Improvements are
Known to be of that opinion, To be
more specific, they say the territory
Pounded on the east by Bighth ave
ue and on the south by Cedar street
will take in practically all the Ne
groes in Nashville. The gentlemen
must be given credit for their lib
erality in allotting the territory, but
their conciusions are as absurd as
‘they are inconsistetit. The day will
never come when all the Negro citi
zens in Nashville will be located in
the territory described above.
It is true that Negroes are buying
homes in Northwest Nashville at a
rapid rate, And ft is evident that in
course of time all of the property in
the Third Ward and a great portion
of the Wards contiguous thereto: will
be owned by them, but a large
majortiy of that territory is oc
cupied by them now, and, in fact,
beginning at a point afew yards west
of the Capitol and extending through
a northwesterly direction, Negroes oc-
cupy a large majority of the houses
in that section of the city; but this
number of Negroes does not consti:
tute a third of the Negro population
of the city, and it would be-absolutely
impossible to comfortably house them
in the territory described.
On the other hand, Negroes are buy-
ing homes fm other sections of the
city as well as northwest Nashville,
and while numbers are locating in the
northwest, there are great numbers
who already own their homes in oth-
er sections, and have owned them
there for years, and they snow no in
clination whatever to change loca
tions.
Nashville Negroes with clear minds
and ambitions have gone on for many
years segregating themselves, Any
man with an ounce of sense wants to
be friendly with his next-door neigh
bor; and Negroes know that if they
are to be friendly with their neigh
bors, those neighbors must be black
people. Consequently they do not seek
to buy homes in white communities
and all of them do not choose to 10
cate in one part of the city. The
never have, and never will, and it
spite of all of the catculations of ou
white friends who are so deeply inter
eated in the Negro's welfare, the day
will never come when there will b

ville
The Spirit of Giving.
No people can be strong and inde-
pendent who are closefisted. We are
told in Holy Writ that “It is more
blessed to give than to receive.” But
provious conditions and later indul-
gences have made the Negroes of
America a people who believe it is
more blessed to receive than to give.
Consequently it is a slow matter to
Induce Nogroes to give liberally to a
public cause. ‘They complain that
they are not able to give. But they
forget that Christ gave the widow
more credit for her mite than he did
the righ who gave much. It is there
fore the spirit in which the gift is
made which counts.
Negroes are poor, it ts true
but every one is able to giv
a little something to any wor
thy cause. It is not perceptible just
what the people can do until they try;
but when a united effort is made, and
all decide to do what they can the
many little mites put togethor wil
make one big whole. The spirit o
giving 1s a commendable one. It bring
happiness to those that possess it
It gives confidence to the Individua
‘and also to the community; for
every man in a community feels tha
he can do something for himseit an
for his neighbor, that community will
be independent and prosperous. But

The Congress.
| The seventh annual session of the
‘Sunday-Schooi Congress is in session
‘at Tuskegeo Institute, Alabama, this
week. ‘The attendance this year wil
ybe by far larger than it has bee
in any previous year. Those who
have watched this organization have
observed that it has grown largely in
numbers and that the increase of
‘members has given a greater enthus!-
asm, with which there has grown
‘a national influence, and the Con-
gress is now recognized as one of
the great forces for the uplift of the
Negro people of this country.
‘The meeting this year will go & long
‘way toward convincing the skeptical,
‘that the young Negro people must
have organizations of their own.
‘There are any number of movements
‘that have been started by whites in
‘which the Negroes are asked to join
but in every Instance the race preju
dice bugaboo rises up to destroy che
influence for good.
The National Christian Budeayor
the Men's Forward Movement, the
Baraca, and such organtzations ar:
‘noble end grand; but these organiza
|ticus cannot be of benefit to all the
people unless they are moved from

when such organizations must come

Consequently, it is absolutely neces

Dr, R. H. Boyd, the organizer of th:
Sunday-School Congress, had felt th

and determined to provide for th
young Negro Baptists of this country
he therefore formed an organizatior

The Truth is the Light.
A few days ago the daily papers of
this city and other cities heralded to
the world that a Negro had been
mobbed near Orlinda, . Tennessee.
‘Thove acquainted with this communt-
‘ty know that the majority of thé prop.
erty owners and farmers are Negroes,
‘and it was quite a surprise when
was learned that a Negro had been
mobbed right in that community
The Globe became interested in the
case and set about to get the facts.
For when a Negro is gufity he ought
to be punished, and when he is ¢
of criminal assault, he, as any other
|man, ought to receive the severest
penalty of the law, *
| It is @ fact that in most cases the
|white mob takes the Negro and
|lynches him, and of recent times to
|appease an annoying conscience the
statement fs often made that the Ne
jsro confessed. The ‘atest attempt to
Justify mob violence comes from che
state of Texas, where it Is claimec
that a Negro made a written
ssomen that he was guilty
of the crime, But in all of thee

The closing of Pearl High School
brings (o mind that this is the first
fime in many years that that institu
tion hasbeen without athletics of
any kind. The graduating class of 1912
contains more boys {agony in
recent years, but this was Wt due to
the fact that they had no athveties.
To he contrary, it is due to the exist-
ing athletics up to 1911. The boys
were held in school by the football
and baseball teams. If athletics are
eliminated from the High School it
will not be many years before the
boys will begin to drop out. This
Sounds unreasonable, but it is true,
nevertheless. A boy must have gome-
thing else mixed with his books, and
unless he has a variety of things, you
will nd him moving around. ‘The
athletics in our high school should be
revived. If they are necessary in the
colleges and universities, and if the
white high schod's must have them
to hold their boys, it does not sound
reasonable to say that Negro boys can
be kept in the high school without

B. Chureh,
ticular occasion at a men's meeting
his. powerful preaching and convin-
cing presentation of the scriptural
(eachings resulted. in several conver
sions in one evening. It was sald by
many on the grounds that a worthy
successor to the late Bishop” Grant
‘had. been’ chosen when Dr! Howard
was elected to take charge of the
Evangelistic Bureau of the Connec-
tion,
‘The new Secretary Was not yet
given up his church in this city, and
it is not known Just when or how
Jong hd will remain here. he mat:
‘ter is in the hands ofthe Bishop and
the residing Elder. ° It is believed
however, that he will take up the
evangelistic work some time this
summer. If he does, it will be neces-
sary for another pastor to be appoin*-
ed to St. John Church. Who this
would be is problematical; but it goes
without saying that’ a strong man
would be selected to stieceed Dr
Floward.

ING ATTENTION,
Continued from F'age: 1).
pending before’ the Supreme Court of
the United States, we asked about the
inteations of Rathbone, the founder
of the order. We made the inquiry,
thinking that he, only, had the right
to take out letters patent to guaran-
ee against infringement. If he sold
his device, or what not, we take it
that protection could follow in event
protection was applied for, or trans-
ferred, if granted, to. the original
owner.
‘As {ar as we are able to learn, Mr.
Rathbone was of a philosophical
mind neither thinking of protecting
his work or selling it to any indt
vidual or set of individuals. He was
willing that all should be benefited i
they would, if there were possibility
of benefits to follow such organiea
tions as founded on the principles he
set forth,
We quote in part the Wagoner

DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
Almost every citizen of Tennessee delights to boast of the fact that everything necessary for the support of man and beast can be grown successfully in this State. It has been said that if a wall encircled the State so as to prevent the importation of all products of the soil, that Tennessee could live and prosper. Every one who is conversant with the soils of the state will not deny the fact that the above statement is true, and in the face of such facts it seems necessary to import from other states a large quantity of the necessities of life. There is no need for such conditions to exist if the farmers would change their methods of farming. If every farmer would resolve to diversify his crops and grow those things that are necessary for the sustenance of his family and stock there would be a great revolution in their financial condition. In the tobacco and cotton sections it isamentably true that many men neglect the growth of corn and hay, for the purpose of raising a larger crop of their staple, and then use a large portion of the proceeds for purchasing at an exhortant price those articles that could and should have been grown at home. During the past spring it was almost a daily scene that wagons would deliver to bacoe to the Clarksville market and return home loaded with hay, corn and bacon, thus laying out all of the profit on the tobacco what might have been grown at home. The northern farmers, many of whom have accumulated wealth, have made their money largely by first supplying their home with hay, needed, and selling the surplus to farmers in the South; and Tennessee have been large purchasers. It is impossible for farmers to attain the highest degree of living unless they raise a sufficiency of all products for home consumption and then prepare for your money crop, and when our people with all necessary resources for growing all crops fully realize the importance of adopting such methods, they will soon recognize the financial value of such work.
CO-OPERATION.
By Hoyt N. Hardeman.
To the Farmer:—Yours is the greatest calling on earth, because you feed and clothe the world, and you who ought to be the most independent people on the earth, are, in many instances, the slaves to all other classes. imagine if you will, two great balls, rolling slowly down the panes of time, and a single file of farmers passing between those two gigantic balls, one man coming out with eyebrows seared, one with a finger broken, and one with a toe off
—that is to-day the condition of the majority of the farmers in America. Upon one side you have the trusts and upon the other you have the labor organizations, and you, who produce the food and riment for these classes are the slaves and the servants of these other two. And why is it? It is simply because you pass between these two great forces single file. Were you organized, as is every other calling, were you banded together, were you marching like an army, you would not be ground, as you are, between these opposing classes. It is because you are disbanded, attempting to combat all sorts of organizations single-handed. There is just simply one method whereby the farmer is going to be lifted out of his present condition, and that is through cooperation. You see combination on every hand. Can you think of a single article that you buy that does not come through a trust? Let us suppose the combined forces of several foreign nations were to declare war against the United States, and our president should issue a call for a million of men, and he should say to them, "Take your arms and go out and battle against the enemy." What would be the result? We would be annihilated. In a business sense the farmer is annihilated to-day. Like a beggar he takes his products to the markets and asks, "What will you give?" And like a beggar he goes to buy, and asks, "What will you take?"
You who produce the breadstuffs of the world, why don't you market it, why don't you sell it, as does the man who sells you a keg of nails or a roll of wire, or as does any manufacturer? Your products are far more necessary for the nation and world than are theirs. They consider the interest on the investment—the insurance, the taxes, the labor, the salaries, the losses, and then fix a price. When you produce a bushel of wheat, a barrel of corn, a pound of beef or pork, do you go about it in an intelligent way and say, My land is worth so much an acre, I must have interest on my investment; my labor is worth so much a day, there are taxes, wear and tear on the machinery and use of horses to be considered, and then do you put a price upon that grain or beef as you should, and get it? No; you allow a lot of speculators to fix a price on these commodities. You could stop their speculating as well as fixing the price if you would. But you do not hang together; you hang separately; you don't vote together, or you would fill your legislative halls with farmers.
As an illustration of what great benefits could be derived from cooperation, take the tobacco association. In this we find the farmers have organized themselves together and demand their price for their product, and as a result, the price of tobacco as sold by the farmer, has increased in value to more than double. If it can be done with to-bacco, by co-operation, why can't we band ourselves together and organize associations for our corn, our cotton, our vegetables, and our live stock? These products of the farm must be had to keep the world going, and if all the farmers would combine and demand certain prices for their products, they would receive them just the same as they have for tobacco.
BUSINESS LEAGUE TO BE ORGAN
IZED AT FRANKLIN.
Franklin, Teenn., June 3.—On Thursday night, the 22nd inst., a meeting was held at the Missionary Baptist Church for the purpose of stimulating interest and drawing enthusiasm in the feasibility of the formation of a local branch of the National Negro Business League. The attendance represented many of the varied callings of the colored men of the town. Mr. C. H. Moore, who is traveling in the interest of the Business League, gave a very valuable and appreciative address. After some discussion it was moved and adopted that a temporary Chairman and Secretary be elected. Mr. H. J. Ewing, the Under taker and Contractor, was elected Chairman, while to Dr. H. C. Robins was delegated the post of Secretary. A number of those present gave in their names as intending members. A mass-meeting will be held on Monday, June 3rd, when permanent officers will be elected and the movement firmly started.
Mr. Moore was accorded a cordial vote or thanks. All are hopeful that the organization will live and prove a stimulus to the cultivation of a strong spirit of self-help and racial confidence.

ERIN NOTES.
Madam Kate Greenaw and Lois B. Graham arrived here Friday morning. At the station they were given a hearty welcome to this little town. They were the guests of Mrs. Alpha Johnson.

Beginning with the baccalaureate sermon on Sunday, May 26th, which was powerfully preached by Rev. Harris, and followed on Monday night with the great lecture by Dr. W. S. Ellington, and so on through the entire week, winding up with a picnic Saturday. Rev. Harris was at his best and in his sermon under the subject, "Look up," pointed out many helpful ways to the class. Dr. Ellington, whose subject was "Some Problems that Challenge our Thoughts," presented some problems that set the people to thinking and aroused a deeper sense of detty. Me carried his audience by his persuasive eloquence and deep reasoning. There were two students, Alberta Walker and Walter S. Walker, to receive certificates from the preparatory department. The promotions were given Saturday morning just before the picnic and the following pupils made marks which placed them on the honor roll: Arthalia Gray, 5-A Grade, 91; Eula Bell Gray, 7-A Grade, 91; Walter S. Walker, graduate, 90; and Johi Cathey, normal, 91. Mrs. Susan B.

SPINSTERS' CONVENTION A BIG
SUCCESS
Odd Fellows Andorium was packed to standing room last Thursday night, May 31st, to witness the first rendition of the play known as "The Spinsters' Convention." This play was staged by the members of the Galedda Class No. 16 of the Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday School. The members of the class consisting of 68 in all, together with the entire list of officers, had put extra efforts forward to make the affair a big success. The President of the class, Miss Mary L. Clark, who was also their delegate to the Congress; the vice president, Miss Sarah E. Jones; Secretary, Miss N. E. King; Assistant Secretary, Mrs. A. S. Rucker; Treasurer, Mrs. H. A.

NEW PARK NAMED.
The new park recently purchased by the city of Nashville in the northwest section of the city has been named by the Board of Park Commissions "Hadley Park." Mr. Hadley was the original owner of this tract. It has come down from his heirs, and the Commissioners thought it would be a worthy tribute to Mr. Hadley to name this park for him, as it would perpetuate a historic name.
Mr. Hadley was a great friend of the Negro, and this was another reason that prompted the Commissioners to adopt his name. This is a very familiar name in this city, and some of the leading citizens have borne this title. One of the foremost Negro educators and promoters bore that name in the person of Dr. C. H. Hadley, who was for many years principal of one of the public schools here, and was the organizer of the Independent Order of Immaculates, of which he was the Supreme Grand Master until his death. Dr. Hadley resided in the vicinity of this park for many years. He erected a beautiful home on Phillips street, near Sixteenth avenue, North, which is still occupied by his family, and while the park was not primarily named for him, the name will be appreciated by all Negroes in view of the fact that he is so closely related to the Hadley family.
The tract consists of thirty-four acres of blue grass land set with massive shade trees, and on which is to be found as fine mineral waters as there are in the state. The old Hadley mansion still stands on the grounds and will be remodeled and kept in first-class condition. Chairs are already on the ground to the number of several hundred, and the park, while not finished, is open to the public, and they can go out any day and enjoy the fresh western breezes and view the beauties with which nature has blessed that vicinity. Fortunately the plot of land is a natural park and will afford a comfortable rendezvous for the people in its splendid condition. It is only a few steps from the end of the Jefferson street car line and would be a pleasant place to spend a hot afternoon.
The Commissioners will put the grounds in condition as soon as possible; but this does not bar the people from visiting the park at the present time.
PROMINENT VISITORS AT FIRE-
SIDE SCHOOL.
The Christian Workers Foreign Missionary Society will meet at 513 Mulberry street, on Monday night, June 3, at 8 o'clock. A good program will be rendered. Miss Davie, a teacher of Spelman Seminary, Atlanta, Ga., visited the Home on Thursday, May 23. While here she also visited the National Baptist Publishing Board, Fisk University and Roger Williams University. She is to spend a year among the churches speaking about home missionary work. The Christian Workers Conference held its meeting on the morning of May 27th and considered how to deal with those who lack assurance of salvation. Miss L. E. Bushnell returned this week from the meetings of the Northern Baptist Convention.

of a church architect has been fully realized by the Bishops, General Officers and ministers of the A. M. E. Church for some time. Too often the church edifices and buildings have been constructed without proper ventilation and light. But now that a capable architect has been elected this trouble can be obviated. Mr. Lankford is a mechanical engineer and has wide experience as a builder. Mr. Lankford is a native of Missouri, having been educated in the public schools and at Lincoln Institute, after graduating at Tuskegee and from one of the best schools in the country on architecture. He is a young man of great ability and forethought, and has resigned and built some of the best buildings in the country.
PROF. PHILLIPS' "BROWN GIRL."
PROF. PHILLIPS "BROWN GIRL"
Nashville is not only the home of accomplished musicians, teachers and the like, but it has sprung into prominence for turning out exceptionally unique artists. The recent production from the pen of Prof. Jasper T. Phillips, known as the "Brown Girl." is the comment of the season. It is a pen drawing, and while it does not resemble any particular individual, it shows the remarkable advancement and the splendid evolution the race is making in the beauties to be found among the females of the race, and while the pen drawing of Prof. Phillips only portrays the imagination of a "Brown Girl." it can be easily taken for an original photograph of some of the beauties to be found in sunny Tennessee. Prof. Phillips, although not boasting as an artist, has given some splendid pen drawings and deserves to be in a class with the celebrated pen artists of to-day.
Sunday being a fair day, every church had a large attendance at 11 o'clock. The Rev. I. T. Jefferson, of the A. M. E. Church, and his people were in an educational rally, which was a success. Rev. S. M. Carmi-

Church Monday and ‘Tuesday nights. |
‘The very name of Prof. Hynes brough{

never ‘ose thelr weight, as each
thought suggested and every word
seemingly took hold of the vast audi-

niore than one hour.
‘The Titanie Disaster on high seas
was exhibited and the people got a
clearer conception of it than at any

they packed the church both nights,
and standing room was at a premium,

NEGRO PRESIDENT FOR HOWARD
: UNIVERSITY.
Since the election of Dr, Thirkield
to the Bishopric the Trustees, of How-
ard University, Washington, D. C.,
have begun casting about for a Presi-
dent to succeed him. The woods are
full of candidates, and a strong effort
is being made to land a Negro in the
place. It is known that Prof, Kelley
Miller, Prof. Cook, and several others
are being mentioned for the position.
Just what opinion the majority of the
trustees have ag regards placing a
colored man at the head of this great
institution is not known; but the fact
that come of out leading educators
and heads of schoo’s are Trustees of
Howard and fully half or a majority
{ the Trustees are Negroes, it would
seem reasonable to suppase that the
ack man will, at least, have an equal
chance for an election.
| Some hve mentioned Dr, M, ©. B.
‘Mason, who was for twenty years
Secretary of the Freedman’s Ald So-
ciety, as a fit man to place at the head
of Howard University. Dr. Mason Is
‘@ high-class gentleman, and it is be-
sieved by his friends that he would
make 4 successful president aud a
