DOCTOR TELLS OF HOSPITAL
Tuberlosis Institution Receives Praise.
Situation Beautiful, Drainage Perfect
—Two Wings Identical—Sanitation
Likewise—Compares Nashville
Hospital With Others in the
East—Negro Doctors Will
Co-operate—Popular Impression Wrong.
A few days ago in company with some friends, a visit was made to the Tuberculosis Hospital which has recently been completed and thrown open for the reception of tuberlosis patients. Upon our arrival at the Hospital we were joined by Mayor Howse, Dr. R. G. Tucker, County Health Physician, and Dr. M. E. Link, the physician in charge at the Hospital.
To us the Hospital was in itself not only a surprise, but a revelation. I, like most of the physicians in Nashville, have never taken the time to visit the place, nor study its merits. Nashville and Davidson County might well be proud of such an institution, established for the purpose of assisting in stamping out from our midst that dreaded disease, consumption.
This hospital stands as a monument to the untiring, persistent efforts of Nashville's greatest, most liberal and progressive Mayor, H. E. Howe—the Mayor of all the people—and to the City Council, and the County Court, that have stood by him in every effort for the best interest of all the people.
No pain nor money have been spared in making this Hospital complete in every particular for the treatment, comfort and maintenance of tuberculosis patients. Situated on the crest of a hill, not only is it "beautiful for situation," but the drainage is perfect. I don't think a more ideal spot could have been selected about Nashville. Just far enough away from the hum of industry, and the smoke and dirt of a busy city, surrounded by nature in its diversified forms and beauties, to make it not only attractive, but to the patient most helpful.
patient in the building. The building is well arranged with a wing for the white patients and a wing for the colored patients. In each wing the male patients are separated from the female patients. As we were shown through the building, we paid particular attention to its sanitary construction. The walls and floors are perfectly clean, free from dust and dirt, and so plainly constructed as to be easily kept so. The patients' wards are screened from files and mosquitoes, capable of being thrown open for plenty of air and sunlight, and then constructed so that they can be closed in when the weather is cold and kept warm by a perfectly installed steam heating system. The buildings are lighted with electricity throughout, and each ward has its bath, washroom and toilet, all fitted up with the very best and up-to-date outfit. I have visited several of the hospitals in the East, where tuberculosis patients are kept, including the well arranged Long Island Hospital across the James River from Boston, and nowhere have I seen a more beautiful fully sitoated, well equipped and suitably arranged hospital for tuberculous patients than we have here.
Especially should the colored people take an interest in this hospital. It affords for those who are the victims of consumption an opportunity for the very best treatment and care, and very best chance to get well. At this hospital the wing for the colored patients is equipped and arranged just like the wing for the white patients. Of the two wings the one for colored patients as a view point for beautiful landscape and accessibility to fresh air and sunlight is the more favorable. There is no difference in the fare, all patients are furnished every comfort they need, including diet, medical attention and the constant services of earwigs, dutiful and painstaking nurses. Patients may be visited by relatives and friends as often as they desire. They may even be visited by their own physician, if desired.
not only every physician in Nashville, but every citizen, where possible, should visit this hospital, for indeed its attractiveness and its worth and value to this community cannot be appreciated without the seeing. The Negro physicians here are willing to co-operate in every way possible to assist in the crusade that is now being waged against consumption in this city. The Negro physician can do a great deal toward lowering the death rate of our people from this cause. Our people in general can help in this matter by encouraging the hospital idea. To most of our people the very mention of the word "hospital" carries with it cruel treatment, careless attention, ceaseless misery and hastened certain death. This idea of a hospital must be changed. Our people must be taught that rather (Continued on Page 7)

S. GOLERIDGE TAYLOR DEAD
Recognized As England's Greatest Composer.
Wrote Choral for Three Plays—Studied Under Stanford—Won National Fame When He Wrote "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast"—Received Many Festival Commissions—Visited America in 1910.
London, Eng., September 4.—The entire music world today is lamenting the death and paying tribute to Samuel Coleridge Taylor, the colored music master and foremost English composer, who died here suddenly on last Sunday.
Samuel Coleridge Taylor, the most important of colored composers, and one of the best known of modern composers, was born in London, Aug. 15, 1875. He was the son of a doctor of medicine, a native of Sierra Leone, and an English mother. He studied the violin with J. Beckwith of Croydon, and joined the choir of St. George's, Croydon, at the age of 10 as an alto singer. In 1890 he entered the Royal College of Music as a student of the violin, studied composition with Sir Villiers Stanford, and gained a composition scholarship in 1883.
From that time his name has been prominently before the public, at first through the performance of early chamber compositions at the Royal College students' concerts, such as a monet and a symphony, the latter given in St. James Hall in 1896 under Stanford's direction.
A quintet for clarinet and strings in F sharp minor, played at the Royal College in 1895, was later performed in Berlin by the Joachim Quartet. A string quartet in D minor dates from 1896.
It was in 1898 that the first part of his Hiawatha trilogy, "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast," was produced at the Royal College. His fame in America rests mostly on the choral work. The second part, "The Death of Minniehaha," was brought out at the North Staffordshire Festival in the autumn of 1899, and the third, "Hiawatha's Departure," by the Royal Choral Society, at the Albert Hall on March 22, 1900. In the following May the overture to the whole was heard for the first time. The work, especially the first part, made a great and lasting success, such as has not been rivaled by any other composition from Coleridge Taylor's pen.
As a matter of course he received many festival commissions after it, including "The Blind Girl of Castel-Cuille," for Leers, in 1901; "Meg Blane," Sheffield, 1902, and "Kubla Khan," Handel Society, 1906.
He wrote incidental music for many of the plays which Sir Herbert Beerbohm. Tree produced at His Majesty's Theatre. This included accompaniments to the dramas, "Herod," "Ulysses," "Nero" and "Faust," all by Stephen Phillips. In 1904 he became conductor of the London Handel Society.
He visited this country two seasons ago to conduct one of his works at the Litchford County Festival. This summer he wrote two pieces especially for this festival, one of them a violin concerto, which was performed for the first time there in June by Mine, Maud Powell. He has written a quantity of music for the violin and piano, several songs and one symphony.
SOLDIER CHARGED WITH THE
MURDER.
For Which Chattanooga Mob Was After Negroes.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Sept. 11.—Aubrey E. Matthews of Company M, Eleventh United States Cavalry, Fort Glethorpe, was arrested late today, charged with the murder of Mounted Policeman Clarence Livingston, who was shot while looking for burglaries in the basement of a saloon early Sunday morning, Sept. 8.
With an accusing finger, a woman whose name will be given at the proper time, and who is in the custody of Sheriff Conner, pointed out Matthews in thrafte, O etaiohrdushdrullher. She asserted that she was with Matthews in the basement the night the police officer was killed and that he fired the fatal shot.
Matthews, who is 22 years old, admits that he was with the woman the fatal Saturday night, but denies that he was with her in the basement of Dillard's saloon, claiming that he did not know even where the saloon was located. He says he can prove an alibi.
Several Negroes have been arrested, charged with the murder, and a few days after the crime a mob bent on lynching the accused black stormed police headquarters. The Negroes had been spirited out of town and no lynching occurred. The first Negro arrested declared the officer had been shot by a soldier, but little credence was given his story.
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 13, 1912.
PAT H. MONOHAN BRUTALLY MURDERS CLARENCE PEAKS
SHOT MONDAY NIGHT, DIED WEDNESDAY MORNING---MURDERER HAS LIVED ON NEGRO PATRONAGE ALL HIS LIFE.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE OPENED
Large Attendance On The First Day.
Teachers an dPupils Heve Happy
Meeting—Many Little Hearts Made
Glad—Free Books in Three
Grades—Poor Children Can
Get Education—State Normal Begins Monday,
September 16th.
Monday morning found many homes in this city aglow with the happiness that comes to the hearts of the young when the school times come, and that anticipation that lingers in the breast of every parent when the time comes for the children to begin their year's study.
Monday the weather was ideal and the little tots were up bright and early. Before seven o'clock many of them were making their way to the school house, and by half past seven the streets were, literally covered. The little ones were thinking of their teachers. Some were going to greet their old teachers, while others were wondering just what kind of a reception the new ones would give them. And so merrily the army went on, chattering, skipping, full of glee.
The enrollment this year was very encouraging, and the indications are that a larger enrollment will be had this year, and in all probability before many months shall have passed there will be a call for more teachers. Already some of the Negro schools are beginning to become crowded, and the teachers and principals are wondering what they will do to accommodate the hundreds of children who will be turned away for lack of space.
Many of the High School students, it is said, contemplate leaving the High School and enrolling in the State Normal and Industrial School. The only reason for this is the opportunity given at the State Normal for industrial training. These students believe that at the Normal they will have a better opportunity to learn a trade than they can possibly have in the High School. There are others, however, who will fill up the ranks that have been depleted, and the indications are that there will be not a vacant seat in any of the schools.
STATE NORMAL OPENING
On Tuesday, September 17th, at 2 p.m., the opening exercises of the first annual session of the Agricultural and Industrial State Normal School for Negroes will be held in the auditorium of the Academic building, to which the general public is cordially invited. Some of the leading citizens in the state will deliver addresses and an interesting time is expected. On Monday, September 16th, the boarding department of the institution will be opened for students, and on the same day registration and classification will begin. From present indications the school will be crowded at the opening. Many applications have come in from the cities and country districts of every section of the state and several from other states. More than fifty have registered from Chattanooga alone. The school will have an Academic Course of four years and a Profes-
Monday night on the corner of Lafayette and Lewis streets one of the most brutal shootings was enacted that has ever taken place in this city. Pat H. Monahan who conducts a grocery and saloon on that corner, shot and fatally wounded one Clarence Peaks. It is said that a crowd of Monahan's customers were on the outside talking and laughing, as it is their custom to do. He hoisted the window and ordered them away, but they did not move as rapidly as he thought they should and he opened fire, striking Peaks in the head. The wounded man was removed to the city hospital where he died Wednesday morning.
After the shooting Monahan was arrested and taken before Squire Levine, where he was released on a $1,500.00 bond. Following the death of Peaks Wednesday morning, Monahan was rearrested by Detectives Ervin and Dowd on the charge of murder and was bound over to the Criminal Court on the sum of $5,000 by Squire Levine. It is said that the prosecutor of the case is H. P. Fritz.
TWELVE THOUSAND ODD FELLOWS
Assemble In Atlanta This Week.
Metropolis of Georgia Throws Open Her Dors—Welcome Meeting a Rousing Affair—Important Matters Before Session—B. J. Davis the Man of the Hour—Grand Master's Address.
By Cary B. Lewis.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.—(Special.)
Twelve thousands delegates and visitors are here attending the sixteenth Blennial Movable Conclave, which is in session in the Auditorium Armory. The interior of the large building was beautifully decorated with American flags, with a color scheme of white and green. At first day's meeting, ten thousand people heard welcome addresses and responses. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Deputy Grand Master, opened the meeting and delivered the welcome address on behalf of the Governor of the State.
Col. Lincoln Johnson paid a high tribute to the Southern States, especially Georgia and the Atlanta people. Judge W. R. Morris, of the Supreme Court, responded in a most happy vein, eulogizing the virtue of the Order. Hon. W. T. Mayson spoke in behalf of the Mayor. Hon. E. H. Morris responded eloquently. Dr. C. T. Walker welcomed the Odd Fellows in behalf of Georgia, and he was responded to by G. A. Sheehy, Grand Director.
Miss Lucile Dennis, of this city, delivered an eloquent address in behalf of the Household of Ruths of Atlanta. Her enunciation was perceptive, and her plea as sponsor for the hospitality to be extended the delegates was sincere and liberal. She made a wonderful impression upon the vast audience assembled. Mrs. Nora F. Taylor, of Chicago, captivated the audience with her response, paying a high tribute to Edward H. Morris, of Chicago. Dr. W. F. Penn welcomed the delegates on behalf of the Odd Fellows of the city. Hon. W. H. Houston, of Washington, D. C., responded. Miss Ethel Wright represented the Household of the state and bid all welcome on behalf of the inmates of the order. Madam Mary Parker, Worthy Superior, responded. Gen. Henry Forrest, of New York, presented the Order with an American flag to

but Monahan is a city salesman for Fritz, so it is said, and just why he is prosecutor is a mystery.
The neighborhood in which the shooting occurred is settled almost exclusively by colored people. The Monahan man has few customers other than those living in the community. He has made all he has off the colored people. He has always allowed them to congregate around his place and those who are thoughtless and boisterous have been tolerated. They have always looked upon him as one of them, or a man who would countenance their rowdyism in every form. When he ordered them away they took it more as a joke than anything else. They could not believe that Pat H. Monahan, their old chum and associate, could mean other than a joke in ordering them away from his place. They had always hung around there and had spent their money with him and he made believe he was their friend.
The people in the community are much incensed over the shooting and it is not likely that this place will receive the hearty patronage from the Negroes that it has heretofore.
THE STAR OF FIRST MAGNITUDE
Rev. R. H. Boyds Reports Growth of Work.
Publishing House of His Denomination
Enjoying Prosperity—Has Built a
Living Monument to Nashville
Great Baptist Host Cheer
Him to the Highest—His
Home People Proud of
Their Texas Hero.
Houston, Tex., September 12, 1912.—Brimful of information concerning the work of the Publishing House, located at Nashville, Tenn., owned, operated and controlled by Negro Baptists, an infant in years but a tower of strength in the eyes of the people, was the sixteenth annual report of the Board operating this plant, made by Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., the founder of the institution, the present secretary, treasurer and manager, and Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., Nashville, Tenn., chairman, before the National Baptist Convention which is holding its thirty-second annual session in this city. Baptists from all over the world are here making up one of the greatest and most magnificent audiences assembled during the past years. The report is in printed form and makes a book of more than a hundred pages. It is replete with data, statistics and recommendations on the publishing work as it directly affects the Sunday-school. Secretary Boyd has not overlooked anything that would go to make the Sunday-school of today an institution to meet the demands made upon it. Not in the recollection of the oldest members of the Convention has such a report of progress, showing what a single denomination among the Negroes can do in less than a score of years, been attempted. The printing house, better known as the National Baptist Publishing Board, weathered the hardships of the most severe winter the South has known for a number of years. It tided over the watery and overflow spring which two combined, it is estimated, compelled the suspension of twenty-five per cent. of the Negro Baptist churches and Sunday-schools south of the Mason and Dixon line.
The report of the Publishing Board pointed out that in the face of these hardships and suspensions, its growth continued. Dr. Boyd reports that during the past year new machinery, new publications, new standards for higher literature and several new departments were added to the work. In other words, substantial growth, in the way of these additions, has been taken on since the Pittsburgh meeting. Dr. Boyd declared that the rapid growth of the denomination forced these improvements. The very fact that he corresponds and keeps in touch with twenty odd thousand Sunday-schools places him in a position to know their wants. Interesting indeed were the figures showing the enormous correspondence carried on by him. The report shows the correspondence by quarters: first quarter, 64,710 letters; 2nd quarter, 58,281 letters; 3rd quarter, 82,206 letters; 4th quarter, 67,026 letters. In other words, within in the past twelve months 278,223 letters have been mailed out from Nashville, Tenn., to the churches and Sunday-schools of the denomination. One of the new departments of the Board which has lifted the Sunday-school school to a more important place in the eyes of the people is the Sunday-School Congress, the direct outgrowth of the Sunday-school department. The mammoth printing plant in Nashville is looked upon by the Negro Baptists and the race in general as the lighthouse of their denomination, the store-house of information to the Negro Baptists of the world, a star of the first magnitude to the race at large. The business and financial operations of the Publishing Board as outlined in the report of the Secretary bring the gross expenditures of the plant to within the quarter of a million mark. Secretary Boyd shows that the hardest year in the history of the plant was experienced since the last annual meeting, and yet the expenditures by quarters show from September to November, 1911, $30,277.95; December to February, 1911-1912 $27,314.72; March to May, 1912, $33,844.53; June to August 31, 1912 $33,945.01; missionary operations, $55,900.10; making a total of $181,102.35.
When this report was submitted and handed out to the representatives of the two and a half million Negro Baptists assembled, it was a surprise and the sensation of the Convention. No one will doubt that Dr. Boyd has reached the Negro through church periodicals and publications from the Publishing House in Nashville as no other agency in the race has attempted to do. His direct supervision of the Sunday-schools puts the institution in an enviable position. In closing the report Dr. Boyd dwelt upon the suspension of Sunday-schools and declared the discontinuation of many of them did not happen (Page 5).

THE COLORED STATE FAIR
Promises to Eclipse All Former Exhibitions.
Greenwood Park Converted Into A White City—Penny Arcade a Gem—Human Roulette a New Feature—Poultry Exhibit a Big Attraction—Other Exhibibits Will Be Better Than Ever.
A Globe representative was motored out to Greenwood Park this week and was shown over the grounds by Rev. Preston Taylor, manager of the Colored State Fair. Greenwood has been converted into a new park. The painter with his brush and the landscape gardener are putting on the finishing touches, and before the 24th, the opening day of the Fair, a beautiful panorama will be ready to greet every visitor to this annual exhibition.
At the main entrance and in front of the club house the lawn that has always been a thing of beauty, is receiving special attention this year. The facilities for entertaining the large crowds that attend the Fair are being increased. This is being done in anticipation of an overflow attendance this year.
As you pass through the club house on the right just within a few steps of the club house is to be found the Penny Arcade. In this building is just as fine an outfit of views, graphophones and other amusements as is anywhere in the country. The manager has invested expensively in this new feature for the special benefit of the Fair visitors. A few steps to the left and you stand in front of the Dunbar Theater. Here the amusements will hold sway during the fair, and the vaudeville shows will without doubt draw large crowds. Next to this building is the Human Roulette. This is a new contrivance for the entertainment of visitors. This roulette is located in a building sixty by seventy feet. The wheel is forty feet and is built on a concrete base with eight rests and a ball-bearing center, which is driven by a motor so arranged that the speed of the roulette can be increased to a very rapid gate. This has proven one of the greatest drawing cards at the park and yet furnishes a deal of amusement for grown people and children alike. At the foot of the hill will be found a Merry-go-round, which is sixty feet. This merry-go-round is run by electricity. Right opposite the merry-go-round is to be found the new Pavilion that was once used for a merry-go-round.
The manager informed the Globe representative that he intended to have everything ready by the opening of the Fair.
Just south of the pavilion is a new spring with a concrete base that will furnish water for thousands each day. This spring is built in the dell and the water is piped into it and piped out as it runs over. The old American eagle is there to gaze upon the throng as they pass his way. He shows no sign of age, but looks like he intends to live for all-time. Leading from the spring in the ravine a two-inch pipe has been laid to the reservoir. About the middle of the ravine a drinking fountain has been put in. This will give to the thirsty thick fresh water from the spring, as cool as when it comes from the mountain side.
The poultry exhibit promises to excel everything. This building is twenty by forty feet and constructed on the most modern plan. The poultry house is on the hillside just above the exhibit building. It is apparent that everyone who visits the Fair this year will enjoy the trip. Everything is being given a touch of paint, which serves to add to the attractiveness of things in general.
The exhibits will be better than ever. Applications for space are coming in from every quarter and the local interest manifested is greater than it has ever been.
CHICAGO WRITER CHOSEN TO REPORT B. M. C.—SOUTHERN PAPERS GIVE WIDE SPACE TO BI-ENIAL MEETING.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.—(Special.)
—Cary B. Lewis, one of the best known correspondents and editorial writers of the race, is here reporting the sixteenth bi-ennial session of the Grand Order of Odd Fellows. He was telegraphed on Saturday to come with the Chicago delegation to report the session to the white dallies and weekly papers.
Mr. Lewis did similar work for the Order eight years ago at Louisville and has reported the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Fythias for the past years. The following week, he will send a story to the weekly papers of the race and the American Press Association, giving a full account of the final tractions of the order. He is the guest at the B. M. C. of Hon. Benj. J. Davis. He will return to Chicago by the way of Nashville and Indianapolis. The Grand Officers are much pleased with the space given in the dallies by the Chicago writer.

ALLEN'S CREEK NOTES.
We are having a very dry spell here. We have had no rain in three or four weeks. Nothing but hot dry weather. The Masons of Mt. Olive Lodge No. 21 are very much pleased over having the Worshipful Grand Master, J. A. Henry, of Chattanooga, with them on the 5th of September. He spent much time in instructing the brethren. All feel benefited by his coming to them as Grand Master Henry is a man that is clear in mind and can think well what is best for the order. We are always glad to listen to everything he may bring to the lodge. He also met with the O E. S. Thursday, the 5th, in the afternoon. After having been introduced to the chapter by the W. M. Mrs. L. B. Smith, he was extended a hearty welcome by the entire chapter, to which he said many good things to the members and also relieved them of some things that no one could have except a Grand Master like Mr. Henry. He understands how to make everything plain to the officers and members in the chapter. During his stay he was the pleasant guest of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. We wish him to come again soon.

"I regard the Tuskegee Institute as the most considerable educational invention of modern times," writes Prof. N. I. Thomas, professor of Sociology in the University of Chicago. Industry is the spirit of Tuskegee, Industry and discipline are made a habit. The choice of some 40 trades is offered young men and young women. Tuskegee graduates are earning from $50.00 to $80.00 and $100.00 per month as Academic Teachers, Farm Managers, Steam and Electrical Engineers, Tailors, Teachers of Domestic Science, Nurses, in fact, the demand for men and women trained in all the trades at Tuskegee is far beyond the supply.
The Academic work is vital and real; it is close to realities. The school cooks soundness and efficiency; the Academic and Industrial work is closely correlated.
The Spiritual work of the school is strong. It ranks fifth in the United States in number of students studying the Bible. It is guided by a Chaplain and a Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and through a Bible Training School.
Morning drills for boys; special gymnastic training for girls; swimming pools for boys and girls; attractive grounds; more than 100 buildings - large, comfortable, airy, electric lighted; 186 Teachers.

Livingston Dynamiting
It seems that election time must of necessity bring with it a spirit of discontent. In our fair southland this restlessness is duty-bound, or rather it appears to be impossible for southern white men to get worried without giving vent thereto by committing some outrageous crime. It is natural for a man when these feelings come over him to seek out the crime that he believes will call for the least censure, and as the Negro is a good-for-nothing creature and has been dedeclared to have no rights that are bound to be respected, he is singled out as the object of attack.
In Livingston, Tenn., a few nights ago a man who was in the last stages of consumption and his family had their house dynamited by a mob whose reason for the crime has not as yet been traceable to any act on the part of the family who had to suffer. All of the respectable people of the community are shocked at this crime and strenuous efforts are being put forth to apprehend the guilty parties. We fear, however, that the main trouble for such outbreaks is going unnoticed.
Mobs cannot be broken up by force. It is possible to quell a mob in a community if the proper steps are taken, for they always consist of cowards, cutthroats and murderers, and a few courageous men can easily put to flight such a crowd; but driven from one community, this same crowd will pick an opportunity to commit just as heinous a crime in some other community, and probably more so; for such characters once aroused, continue to grow in desperation and depravity. To break up the mob b spirit a universal sentiment must be created. This sentiment cannot be inculcated into the minds of the people spasmodically, but when everything is in peace in a community the thoughtful people, black as well as white, must always be on the alert, and persistently at work to cultivate that spirit of justice that impels all men to do by their fellow-men as they would be done by
Our State Fair
Beginning on the 24th of this month, our annual State Fair will be held at Greenwood Park. This exhibition has grown in proportion with time, but it has not yet reached that stage of which the people of the state can feel proud. A few men have worked incessantly, but the masses have stood it and criticised.
Indications are that the fair this year will be better than it has been before. Some new features have been added that will show signs of progress. We make special mention of the poultry exhibit, which bids fair to excel anything yet put on at the fair. It is also reported that the agricultural exhibits will be better than heretofore. The live stock department has always been fairly represented. But the state of Tennessee has not yet awakened to the great importance of such an exhibition. It will take time, we admit, to develop this institution as it does others, but it is to be hoped that rapid progress will be made in this case, that Tennessee may have a creditable fair, and one in which all of the people in this state, from Carter to Shelby, will take an active part
Business Opportunities.
We delight to call attention to the business opportunities offered in Nashville to Negroes. These suggestions we hope will be accepted as invitations to men out of the city as well as warnings to men in the city. Nashville offers opportunities for men to do business who know how, and who have the will and determination; but with these opportunities does not go a promise that Nashville will take a man who has no business
qualities and inject into him that energy and thrift necessary to succeed in business. Nashville offers the opportunities, but the men who take hold of them must themselves know what to do with them.
The Privileges of Voting.
We fear that the Negroes of Tennessee are not as alert as they should be in regard to the approaching election. We admit that the situation is anything but harmonious. in Tennessee we have a fight on hand that has more corners than the triangle; but it is as much the duty of the Negro voter to study the situation for himself as it is the duty of the white voter.
This is an age of independence. It is as prevalent in Tennessee as it is in other states. The Negro's salvation in politics lies in his independence more so than in anything else. He must think for himself. Factions and parties adopt different schemes to secure votes. They are not to be censured for that as long as they are honest. But there are some politicians who attempt to deceive the ignorant, which is gaining votes by fraud in the true sense of the word. True, all men are expected to know the law, but all men do not know the law, and there are some men who know they do not and who take advantage of their ignorance. Such men are thieves, for they steal from the ignorant man his highest privilege and use it to a personal end.
We believe all of the factions contending for supremacy in the coming contest have the highest motives, but unfortunately, there creeps into the council a "Judas" clothed in purple garments, and with a meekness of a lamb on his countenance, but with the blackness of night in his heart. They are as deceptive as the prince of darkness and have the deceptiveness to beguile their fellow-men. These are the traitors that must be guarded against, and for this reason, every man who has the intelligence to exercise the voting privilege should study carefully the situation. Know for yourself what is best for you and your fellow-men, and then courageously act your part.
Tuberculosis Hospital.
We call special attention of our readers to an article in another column on the Tuberculosis Hospital recently established in this county. We are indebted to Dr. A. M. Townsend for this splendid contribution. It is essential that our readers study it carefully. As a people we are dying rapidly with consumption. The nature of our houses is part of the cause, but there are many ways in which the disease can be combated, and it must be checked.
Mayor Howse and the city authorities have outdone the country in the erection of a Tuberculosis Hospital, and every word in the article of Dr. Townsend is true. In fact, it is not possible for pen to fully describe the importance of such an institution, and it is hard to tell of the natural beauty and grandeur surrounding our Tuberculosis Hospital. In fact, it is an ideal summer resort. A well person could gain vigor by spending a few days there, to say nothing of the great need of those going who suffer with this dread disease.
Every Negro doctor in Nashville should have the courage to turn over to this Hospital all of their patients whom they believe to be infected with the dread disease, turn them over when their cases are hopeful; send them out to this institution and let their lives be prolonged and their health preserved. We believe when our physicians know of this institution they will all join heartily in a campaign to remove from the city every case of tuberculosis that can be admitted to the Tuberculosis Hospital. It is not a poorhouse. All the money necessary to care for the patients will be furnished and every attention will be given to white and black alike. It is the aim of the city to improve the health of the people, and every doctor every minister, every school teacher and in fact all, should join in to make this institution a success.
How?
Many of our contemporaries are arguing that the "initiative, Referendum and Recall" are being advocated with the purpose of disfranchising the Negro. This all may be true, but we have not as yet seen a single reason advanced how such laws could be used in that way.
Just to say that Initiative, Referendum and Recall are schemes to disfranchise Negroes does not make it so. To make such statements without advancing a plausible reason is absurd. The people who read think, and they read that their knowledge of things may be improved, and that paper that prints unsubstantiated news is doing that thing most detrimental to the press, namely destroying confidence. We ask in all candor, How can the Initiative, Referendum and Recall be used to disfranchise the Negor?
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1912.
Sheriff Longhurst has adopted a plan that we believe will be some better than the old one in appointing deputy sheriffs. They will at least be legalized and cannot parade around the city as collector and deputy sheriff combined. We understand that a deputy sheriff must serve papers and not collect bills.
It is said that the principal of our High School is opposed to athletics. It does not seem consistent as long as the annual ball holds sway.

PREJUDICE HIGHER UP
PREJUDICE HIGHER UP.
At the meeting of the National Bar Association held last week at Milwaukee. Attorney-General Wickersham made a gallant fight for his assistant, Lewis, the Negro lawyer whose membership in that organization precipitated a row on account of his color.
There are three Negro lawyers who are members of that association. Mr. Wickersham scored only a partial victory. It was defeated to retain the Negroes as members but a resolution offered by ex-Attorney-General Dickson was adopted providing that hereafter Negroes making application for membership in that body must state the fact that they are Negroes. From the amount of prejudice displayed, it looks to an impartial observer that the National Bar Association is distinguished not for its legal attainments but for its ability in arranging social functions to which Negroes can not be admitted. Great is the National Bar Association.
We learn that one of the three Negro lawyers subsequently sent in his resignation as a member of that august body, and was most warmly congratulated therefor by white lawyers from Georgia. If that action on the part of the resigning lawyer received indorsement from such a source it becomes a debatable question as to whether or not he acted wisely in resigning. In that he did not desire to remain where he was not wanted, he acted wisely. But there was more involved in the fight than personal feelings. Was it not his duty to remain there, if but for no other reason than the vindication of a great principle? When the white man overcomes obstacles and acquires a place to which he thinks he is entitled, he never recedes or resigns. And it has been proved by actual test that he can neither be dynamited out of that place nor will he agree to die out of it voluntarily. He holds on with bull dog tenacity. Why not imitate that stern virtue of the dominant race? It is probable that in resigning the Negro lawyer was looking after his material interest. In that case his action emphasizes the melancholy truth that the race has produced few or no martyrs, or men who are willing or who know how to die for what they conceive to be right.—Dallas Express
The recent arrest by U. S. authorities of the election inspectors who were appointed to register voters for the August primary election, and who denied openly to register a large number of colored men on account of their color, has brought many of them to their senses with the same jolt that an air brake brings a train to a full top. They are to be brought to judgment under the statutes that prohibit any person or persons from depriving any citizen from exercising the right of franchise. We are confident now, as we have been in the past, that each and every colored voter would be permitted to vote at the November election, because this Grandfather's clause was enacted for the sole purpose of perpetuating the existence and supremacy of the Democratic party. The entire enactment is unfair and nothing else but pure and simple class legislation. As we have often said, as Negroes, we are willing to abide by this law, if it is applied equally to all nationalities alike, as we are confident that a very large per cent. of the Negro voters can master it, if rightfully and justly conducted. There is a much larger per cent. of white men and Indians who should not be permitted to vote under this drastic law, than Negroes. The constitutionality of the Oklahoma Grandfather's clause will be decided in a case now pending before the Circuit Court of Appeals at St. Paul during this month, and in advance, we believe the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United States will be sustained—The (Okla.) American.
CLAMORING FOR A CHANGE
In November two kinds of elections will be held. Millions of freemen will take part in one, viz. the presidential, while thousands of people residing in the District of Columbia will take part in the other by the way of casting a straw vote to determine whether the people of the District are politically dead or not.
Just at this time a great deal of dissatisfaction is being stirred up by agitators who declare that the present system of government in the District of Columbia in which taxation is arranged to suit the rich, while the poor bear the burden, is not only unjust, but is iniquitous, and it is being argued that in form the present government is an absolute oligarchy, not legally responsible to the people. Besides this, it is being pointed out that in years past, Senators Blair, Spencer and Ingalls contended that no act of more stupendous and dangerous in consistency has ever been perpetuated by the legislative power of any free people in violation of the principle of their own form of government since the foundation of the world, and Sen

ator Spencer is quoted as having said that it subjects the people of the District to a jurisdiction foreign to the spirit and institutions of the country.
In giving consideration to the future which is now being raised by irate orators on this subject enables one to take a glance backward. Some thirty odd years ago the people of the District enjoyed their franchise. In those days the people of Washington elected their mayor and other officials with the ballot. But the colored vote was very active and succeeded in making things politically, very warm. In order to get rid of the officious colored politician the white people sought and gained another form of government, the same one with which they are displeased with today. In those days republican sentiment and influence was at high tide and the idea of disfranchisement was not dreamed of. But today, it is more probable, that the leading minds who are clamoring for a change in government have under consideration the feasibility of dealing more successfully with the colored man in politics than they did in the long ago, and in so arranging matters to prevent him from being as prominent and troublesome as he used to be.
The urgent demand for a change in government, to our way of thinking, bears such earmarks and it may be worth while for the wide awake men of the District to be on the alert. Philadelphia Tribune.
MR. HOWARD VISITS NASHVILLE
Mr. A. J. Howard of Ebenezer, Miss., paid a visit to Nashville this week after a lapse of twenty-one years. Mr. Howard taught in Walden University many years ago, after which he went to his home and subsequently went into business. He has conducted a successful merchandise business at Ebenezer several years.
A little reunion was held between ex-Mississippians while Mr. Howard was here. Several old friends were stumbled upon. Among them were Mr. S. P. Harris, Councilman from the Third Ward; Mr. S. J. Nesbitt, the popular drayman; Miss Loretta U. Chambers, one of the Sunday-school editors of the Baptist Publishing Board. Mr. Howard was very favorably impressed with Nashville and her possibilities.
DELEGATES TO B. M. C.
The following delegates left Nashville Saturday night, September 7th, at 9:30 in a special coach bound for Atlanta, Ca., to attend the B. M.

H.; Mrs. Mattie R. Rerry, Marrian; Mrs. Exie L. Cullom, Naomi; Mrs. Mattle Anthony, Queen of Sheba; Mrs. Emma Hopkins, Grant; Mrs. Emma Laws, Golden Light. The delegates were joined by the Pulaski delegation: Prof. T. P. Turner, Mrs. M. A. Turner and Mrs. Morella, Mrs. Mary Miller and Bettie Gillam, of Mariam Household were also in the party. The delegates and friends were in high spirit and much good is expected to be accomplished. We hope to see Nashville land some of the plums.
JIM CROW LAW BLAMED.
New Orleans, Sept. 11.—That a lack of seats in the Jim Crow car caused the shooting of Conductor Van Zant last Saturday night on the New Orleans & Northwestern Roard near Slidell, by a Negro passenger who refused to pay his fare because he had to stand, was charged in the petition filed yesterday with the State Railroad Commission by white citizens. The plea was that the railroad be made to equip its trains with more seats for Negroes.
TIME TO REASON TOGETHER. Regardless of the Journal and Guide's optimistic tendencies we cannot see our way clear to enthuse over the Negroes' present political status. In fact we confess our inability to determine the exact political status of the Negro.

the fathers, which included the fellowship and political guardianship of the black man and brother, out of which were voucafhed certain alleged constitutional rights, of late abrogated by default of the sald Republican Party. The Democratic Party is scarcely more uninviting than the Republican Party as at present constituted, but the Democrats offer no relief except such as will come from a downward revision of the tariff, a subject far less vital to the colored citizens than the question of a number of constitutional guarantees of which he is being deprived. At first the new Progressive Party looked like the solution of the whole problem until Colonel Roosevelt expressed the wish that no colored men in the South should have any part in the birth of the new party. That in itself is enough to give the "illy white" enthusiasts more encouragement than they have received throughout the whole Taft administration, and Mr. Taft is the dady of all the illy-white.
The time was never more propitious for the assembling of a national conference of race leaders for the purpose of determining the best course for the colored voters to pursue in the three-sided political contest now before the country. We have only to use the power that we have in northern and western states to bring one or all of the parties back to their senses. In just the same proportion as the sixty-eight Negro delegates held the balance of power at the Republican National Convention, the colored voters hold the balance o. power in the nation, and they only need to be organized and taught how to use this power in the coming election.—The Journal and Gulde.

Appointed by East Star Lodge No. 20 A. F. and A. M. to Draft Resolutions in behalf of the Lodge to Present Rev. Preston Taylor as a token of our appreciation for the hospitality extended us and making it possible for us to entertain the Grand Lodge with satisfaction to all concerned.
It is not intended in this effort to recount all the noble achievements of our worthy brother, but simply to mention a few of the many, to inspire the hope in the breast of such a great and good man, when the committee began making their arrangements to entertain the Grand Lodge he readily agreed to give them possession of the beautiful Greenwood Park, which was a great personal sacrifice on his part and which none other than a true and faithful public spirited member of the fraternity would do. As a business man, Rev. Taylor's record records for itself. He, by his tact and ability to draw the people to him, has pushed himself upward until today he stands upon the very pinnacle of success, as 'well as in the apex of the hearts of his people. And we feel ourselves greatly indebted to him for the same, and desire to express our thanks to him in this manner. Not only did he throw wide the gates of the Park which was an ideal

The entertaining of the Grand Lodge by the lodges and chapters of Nashville was the greatest in the history of the fraternity—a record that every member of the order should be proud of, for this, the Masonic Order has not just been birthed, but is one that has stood the test for years, amid hardships and besetements, gloom and darkness, fighting for the recognition that was rightfully due her.

In this feeble effort we have endeavored to show the goodness and greatness of this broad-hearted man.

THE FIRELESS COOKER IN THE HOME.
By Margaret B. Foulks.
There is no modern invention that has caused so much interest all over the land as the fireless cooker, and perhaps none that has provoked as much skepticism and suspicion. Many people no more than glance at the name a "Fireless Cooker" than they are ready to say "Impossible," there must be fire to cook." Some drop the subject there but others do not, and the fireless cooker is fast becoming one of the necessities in every well equipped kitchen, both in the city and country. When we look into the principle applied in the fireless cooker, we find our wood and our coal ranges, our gas, gasoline and kerosene stoves are all modern inventions as compared to this cooking without fire. Cooking is only making food suitable for eating and assimilating by means of heat.
we have grown used to constantly feeding food or coal into a stove, or watching gas or electric meters tick away dimes and dollars, is no reason we need continue doing so. Over a wood, coal or gas flame heat is constantly produced, but it is not retained, and only a very small part of this heat is used in the actual fireless cooking is simply heat wasted. Fireless cooking is simply heat started it will continue as long as heat is retained. This principle was used centuries ago in the out of door cooking when the people dug holes in the ground, lined them with rocks, made a hot fire in them and when the fuel was burned up, placed their food in among the stones, covering it with stones and earth to retain the heat until the food was done. Among the ruins of Pompeii there were found old stone ovens, and it is said that the fire was built inside of these and when the stones were thoroughly hot it was taken out and the food put in to bake. The Chinese tea cosy is another example of this principle. Some of our old colonial house shave ovens built in the walls used in the same way as the outdoor method. The popular clam bake of the seashore resorts is a good example of this cooking being done with hot stoves after the fire is out.
A number of years ago people began trying "cooking boxes" made in various ways to retain the heat. The German housewife found them very successful. These were usually made by lining boxes, with hay, setting in a covered vessel of boiling food, and covering with hay and the lid of the box. In 1905 our own government conducted experiments along this line and proved that it was a practical thing. Since that time the fireless cooker has been improved constantly until now we have them that will not only boil food but will bake and roast as beautifully as any range, and without the watching, basting, etc.
To the city woman the fireless cooker means chiefly a saving of gas

or electricity, but to the woman in the town and country home, this cooker means not only a saving of fuel but a wonderful saving of time and many hours for reading and recreation that before she spent over a hot stove. It is now not only a possible but an easy matter to feed the average family with a kerosene stove and a fireless cooker, or when using a range, to start the dinner while cooking breakfast, place in the fireless cooker and leave until dinner time. Progressive women in our farm homes are realizing more every day that it is not necessary to spend all of their time in their kitchens, and many homes have already installed this time and labor saving device in their kitchens. And it not only means time to read, visit and sew, but a home free from the heat of a range and also free from the odors of meats, vegetables, etc. Few of us ever realize that the odor of soup, vegetables and meats, through our houses is just so much flavor lost from the food. In the air tight vessels of a fireless cooker these flavors are conserved and instead of having odors of cooking food from kitchen to living room, we have a better flavored, more nutritious food, and a house free from odor and heat.
There are now three methods used in fireless cookers: One is to start food boiling over a fire, cover with air tight cover and place in cooker, close cooker and leave until done. This method takes from one-third to one half longer than over a range fire. Another method is to start food to boiling and place in cooker with the heated stone or radiator under it. A third method used in baking and roasting is to place the cold raw food in vessel between heated stones. All of these methods take about the same length of time as an ordinary range oven. I know this seems to those who have not tried it an impossible thing, but it is true for every woman who has the courage and resistence to study the principles of fireless cookers and apply it. A failure to have well cooked, well flavored food means some carelessness or oversight on the part of the cook and should only cause her to be more careful the next time.
In using a home made hay box or cooker without stones, we must confine ourselves to simmering, and boiling. In this method the food should be boiling hard with cover on tight when placed in cooker. It should not be opened until done, and the full time allowed for cooking. There are so many cookers at a reasonable price in the market now that the home made one is fast being laid aside, but to the woman who cares to try making one, I will give a description of my first one. It may not hold heat quite as long as the much written of old trunk, box or barrel, but it requires a good deal to a woman not an adopt with hammer and nails. A 50-pound hard can with tight cover and a two or four quart granite pail with closely fitted top, a yard of muslin, and the hay is all the material used. Fill the can about half of hay, pressing it down fight, place in bucket and pack around sides with hay; place this a cushion of the cloth cut round to fit can and filled with the hay, place on cover of can and let stand about twice as long as over a frame. The food put into this should boil at least 15 minutes with cover on and should be placed quickly into hay so that boiling will not be stopped. The cover of can should not be removed until food is cooked. Meat, cereals and vegetables can be cooked very successfully in this. A roast is better if seasoned and browned in hot fat, a small amount of hot water noured over it and let simmer from 15 to 30 minutes according to size and placed in cooker without opening it. If thoroughly oreded in flour when seasoned, there will be a nice brown grain when
537 Main Street
done. Cereals which require long cooking should be left in the cooker over night. They should be cooked at least 15 minutes over a fire, then slipped into a vessel of boiling water and into the cooker over night.
The use of the stones above as well as below the food is comparatively new and makes it possible to bake such things as a pound cake, a sponge angel food or fruit cake, as well as meats and other food requiring slow heat, without starting in the oven first and without danger of burning. In boiling food even with stone underneath, one should never open cooker until food is done. In baking with stone above and below it is best to open cooker at end of ten minutes just long enough for steam to escape to prevent bread or cake becoming soggy. Roast or chicken may be cooked without heating by using stone above and below, being careful to get stones hot enough. Perhaps the greatest difficulty found by the beginner is knowing how long to heat these stones or radiators. Every cooker has with it a book of instructions and receipts, but there are various kinds of fires. A stone heated ten minutes over gas might be twice as hot as one heated the same length of time over wood or coal. A very simple rule one can be sure of is to place a small piece of white paper on top of the stone for simmering heat until paper is a cream light, for boiling wax it get a light tan, for baking a golden brown and for roasting let it almost burn. Two stones can be heated over one flame if one is placed on top of the other and these positions reversed several times. This takes about half again as long time for one stone. If one will use carefully the directions given with cooker until they become familiar with the use of it they can then follow the ordinary methods and principles of cookery. These cookers are not, however, as they are often advertised, must be prepared, the stones properly heated, and the cook or itself kept scrupulously clean to be a success. This takes some time, knowledge and work, but it gives in return hours of freedom from the kitchen, a house free from odors and well cooked food with no less of flavor or nutrition. However, the fireless cooker does not broil or fry successfully. Food prepared that way must depend on flame.
One can serve a full dinner very successfully with a two burner gas or kerosene stove and a three compartment fireless cooker. The following dinner menu has been prepared and served with a one burner kerosene stove, a three compartment fireless cooker, with two S-quar utensils, one triple utensil and three stones: Cream of corn soup, smothered chicken, boiled potatoes, lima beans, raisin bread, tomato and cheese salad, mayonnaise, frozen custard and angel cake, coffee. The angel cake and bread were baked the day before. The potatoes, lima beans and soup cooked in the triple utensil, the chicken in one S-quart utensil and the custard frozen in the other. The flame of the kerosene stove was used for coffee and finishing gravy, heating stones, etc. on willhzhrraeeod stones, etc. You will find that the fireless cooker will conserve the cold quite as well as the heat, and any frozen desert not needing to be stirred may be frozen with a saving of ice and time. It is very necessary to pack the vessel containing the desert in the S-quart vessel with ice and salt and leave about four hours.

MACEDONIAN CRY ANSWERED
--MISSION BOARD REPORTS THROUGH ITS CHAIRMAN, J.P. ROBINSON, AND SECRETARY, F. H. BOYD—NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION DOING A GREAT WORK ON HOME FIELDS—PANAMA AND THE WEST—GETS—RELIEF—TEN YEARS' RECORD SHOWN IN REPORT.
Houston, Tex., Sept. 12, 1912. The Macedonia cry, "Come over and help us," that was uttered hundreds of years ago has been heard by the National Baptist Convention and is being responded to by the Home Mission Board. No greater proof of this fact has ever been brought to light, than the report of the Board made through its Secretary, Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., of Nashville, Tenn. In this report the Convention is given credit for doing a masterly work. Secretary Boyd shows that the banner of Emanuel has been established in every clime and country where the Stars and Stripes now float. He shows that more than fifty-seven thousand dollars have been expended in the prosecution of mission work on what the denomination calls "home fields" within the past twelve months.
In the report he deals with the Home Mission work as it affects the National Baptist Convention. The work is subdivided under the peculiar relation that the Home Mission Board sustains to organized Baptist work; the organization of the Home Mission Board in 1895. Missionary co-operative plans of the Home Mission Board, our work in the States and Territories in co-operation with the State and Territorial Conventions, the combined co-operative plans of doing general missionary, Sunday school and colportage work generally, Bible conferences and Theological Training, the National Baptist Convention's Missionary work in the western states, the work of the Field Secretary, our missionary work in other territories and the Canal Zone and Panama work, showing a complete and systematic missionary plan of operation that has taken in every phase of the work.
Ten years, from 1902 to 1911, of the missionary operations are given in this report. The tabulation shows that 467 missionaries have been employed in that time, and that they have delivered 4,445 sermons and lectures; 1,435 Missionary Baptist Sunday-schools and churches have been organized; 4,151 church associations and conventions were visited by them and 1,651,225 miles traveled with a total expenditure of $385,311,24. Never in the history of the National Baptist Convention have such splendid results been shown by co-operation under the various missionary Boards and the several state organizations. The work of the Board, this fiscal year, which closed August 31st, 1912, as is found in the report, shows a decided increase over the returns of last year, notwithstanding the many difficulties and obstacles that had to be overcome.
The recommendation of the Home Mission Board concerning the work in the western part of the United St etasit, with cmfw mfw mfw mfw States, with its inexhaustible field is taken to mean that the Missionary Baptists will not only branch out further in the work they have been doing in Panama, where they have $10,000 worth of property, three churches and three parsonages, and where they have been so royally treated, but that they will penetrate the far West and send ministers to the Dakotas, Wyoming and other states where no organized Baptist churches are better operated. Dr. Boyd has been secretary of the Home Mission Board for sixteen years, during which time Dr. J. P. Robinson, A. M. D. D., of Little Rock, Ark., has been chairman. When the report was made it was received with hearty approval by the thousands of Baptist who showed deep interest in the work.

DR. C. V. ROMAN CALLED TO
TEXAS
In response to a telegram from Dallas, Texas, on Friday of last week, Dr. C. V. Roman left for Texas at 11:30 the same night via Memphis, to attend the bedside of a very sick friend. It was not said when he will return to the city, but he is expected this week.
NASHVILLE NOT BIDDING
"We are not going to ask for the 1913 session of the National Baptist Convention. We have our time set, however, when we do hope to entertain them once more. We hope it will not be many years hence," said Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive and chairman of the Publishing Board, just before leaving for the scenes of the Convention now in session at Houston.
The same appears to be the sentiment of the entire Nashville delegation. Some are not afraid to say that they want the Convention in 1914. However, those who know say the pastors will formulate their plans when they return; then it will be known what the desire is. At any rate, Nashville is not a bidders for the next year's Convention. Most of the delegates who left favor some point in the East like Philadelphia, Baltimore or Atlantic City.

WHITE MAN TURNS BLACK
ANNOUNCEMENT
After a season of negotiations, The Chronicle is happy to announce that beginning with the issue of September 14, the management of it will pass into the hands of Rosecoe Conkining Simmons. Col. Simmons has returned to New York to wind up his affairs there.
To the reading public the name of Rococo Conkling Simmons is something of a household word. He has long been regarded as the foremost journalist of the race, and as the gifted orator of the nation's platform. He has been successively owner and editor of the National Review, the editorial writer of the New York Age, and staff writer for the great metropolitan dailies. He has long been known as the "official orator" of New York. It was no easy thing for Col. Simmons to turn his back upon the scenes of his labors and his triumphs to take up activities in this field. But the growth of Chicago as the capital of the diversified efforts of the colored race appeals to him as reason sufficient to develop here the race's greatest n-newspaper.
The Chronicle feels that in persuading Col. Simmons to transfer his public activities to Chicago it has done the community and the race everywhere a no unimportant service. Watch the Chronicle become the leading journal.
Dr. J. B. Stagleton desires his many friends to know that he has moved his office from 108 Cedar street (Brown Block) to 110 Cedar street, People's Savings Ban & Trust Company building, up stairs in rooms frerly occupied by the late Dr. R. F. Boyd.
DOCTOR TELLS OF HOSPITAL.
(Continued from Page 1.)
the hospital is the place for them when sick, especially when the certainty of their life expends upon careful and scientific nursing and treatment. Our people must be taught the advantage of comfortable, well-lighted and airy compartments over dark, damp and dingy quarters in some basement. They must be taught how to prevent the spread of contagious diseases by separating themselves from others when so unfortunately afflicted. They must be taught the beneficial influence and effects that sanitation has upon the cure of disease, and they must be driven away from the idea that any cure is found in patent nostrums of quack remedies. They must be taught to get out from the alleys where the sun never shines, to get out from over sewers and horse stables, and to stop moving into houses before they are properly fumigated. Physicians and citizens alike are mustered into service in this work of redemption of our people from the thraldom of that most dreaded of all diseases—consumption.
And now it becomes us, one and all, to show our appreciation to the Mayor, and the City Council of Nashville and the Davidson County Court for the establishment of this Tuberculosis Hospital, by using our influence to get those who are unfortunately the victims of consumption to go there for treatment, and most important of all to go there before it is too late. There are many consumptives in Nashville among our people, who ought to be there now. In fact if the proper steps were taken every bed would be filled and we would be in position to demand more quarters, and demand separate quarters in order that those who are most advanced in the disease may be separated from those who are in the first stages.
The Young Men's Literary Club assembled at their permanent quarters in Pythian Temple, on last Monday night, with the newly elected officers in charge. The club has outlined an excellent plan upon which will depend its future. It proposes to publish a monthly magazine, thus more forcibly and clearly emphasizing the scope and unselfish aim of the Club. It also intends to outline and pursue a definite and efficient course of study such as will reflect dignity and credit upon the club as a patron of literature and its kindred arts."

"STREAMLETS OF POETRY."
A book of one hundred pages written and published by Rev. G. W. Porter, recently of Memphis, Tenn., now pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, its city, is a little volume of poems of three classes, serious, humorous and sentimental. Among the serious may be mentioned "The Heroine of the Delta," where a black woman suffered death by a mob at the stake with her husband, in the Mississippi Delta, after being tortured in every possible way to wring from her a confession which she refused to the last to make. "Our Fathers Were Friends, Why Not We?" is drawn from a conversation which the writer heard between his father and his ex-master after the close of the Civil War, and is full of good hard sense. Many others of this class are well worth reading.
Among the sentimental are many pleasing poems, among which may be noted: "When Booker Came to Town," which the writer wrote after he had introduced Mr. Washington to the large audience which greeted him at Clarksville, Tenn., on his special trip through this state in 1903. "Keep Your Feet on the Ground," is another of this class which is fraught with much wholesome advice about buying homes, etc. In the humorous class, perhaps his "Bill and Rastus" is the very best in the book, though there are many of this class that will entertain any lover of humorous poetry.
There are many poems on Easter or The Resurrection, the Christmas Festival and the New Year, that are above the ordinary. Perhaps the most classic poem in the book is the last number, where the writer pours out his soul in a tribute to his only son, who died just about the time he was merging into manhood and when he was finishing his last term in college. The little book has been favorably commented upon by eminent scholars of both races. Rev. R. C. Ransom, of New York, now editor of the A. M. E. Review; Prof. W. S. Scarborough, president of Wilberforce University; Prof. I. M. Burgan, president Paul Quinn College, Waco, Tex., and many other scholars of note have written favorably of the book.

THE STATE FAIR—WHAT IT MEANS TO THE PEOPLE OF TENNESSEE
of Agriculture.
Tennessee has no greater educational institution than the State Fair. It means the production of greater revenue to the commonwealth; it means the exploitation of advanced ideas; it means happiness
The State fair stands for education in every department. In the Woman's Department it stands for the betterment of the home, the child, the grown up. It deals with the health of the people; it treats with industrial education. It gives out many hundreds of lessons in domestic science. It gives practical demonstrations from bread-making to soap-making. It deals with horticulture, the kitchen, garden, the conservatory. It furnishes instruction to the child the young girl, the woman. It teaches the simplest and best methods of employment for both hand and mind. It deals with the handiwork of womens. It deals with objects and subjects that are paramount to all others in home making. The Woman's Department is first in importance.
What does it mean to the schools? It means much to the city and country schools, and exerts a wholesome influence upon all who participate in their control. There is no study more entertaining and more useful than those branches of agriculture dealing with plant and animal life as shown at the State Fair, and it is worth quite as much to the young as to those who are older and whose minds are less conceptive.
What does it mean to the farmer? Agriculture stands out pre-eminent in the great advancement of the arts, and that venerable tribute to be found in the sayings of Solomon, that the "King himself is served by the field," might be said to be the language of inspired wisdom, arousing our noblest ambitions. Food, raiment and luxuries innumerable are the fruits of the farmer's labor and care, and in this train follow health, happiness and independence. Much as the wealth and prosperity of a nation may be advanced by commerce and manufacture, still we are constrained to look upon agriculture as its source and foundation.
This being so, what does the State Fair mean to the farmer?
It means education. It means how best to improve farming operations, improved farming implements, how and when to use to the best advantage getting the largest yields with the

least cost; how to produce more to the acre than before; how to combat destroying insects, droughts, etc.; the best methods of tillage and seed selection. It means, with the efficient material at our command, the covering of our land with smiling fields and waving harvests, thereby creating larger bank accounts. What does the State Fair mean to the live stock breeder?
It means more pounds at minimum cost. It means the kind to raise for food and the best age to slaughter. It means what breeds produce the best results at the pail. It means the thoroughbred's victory over the scrub in every contest. It brings to close range the best sheep, mules, horses, ponies, beef cattle, dairy cattle, hogs, so that every one interested can see the finished product at its best. It means to the ambitious a resolve that he will strive to have something better than the other fellow at the next fair. No man can see and study the best types of all breeds of horses, cattle, sheep and swine as shown at the State Fair and again look with complacency upon a lot of scrub stock at home. What does it mean to the attendant?
All classes of people need respite from labor. It means that fair week should be known as holiday week. There is a delightful social and desirable mingling of the people, and a feeling of mutual interest and respect. Acquaintances are greatly extended! The State Fair is particularly beneficial to the country people in this respect, for their opportunities for recreation are not numerous. There is an educational purpose even in the amusements. The trotting and pacing races are so planned and conducted as to encourage the breeding of better and more useful horses, the athletic features are so arranged as to stimulate the physical development of the people in the same manner as the Olympic games for the ancient Greeks.
There is no home, farm, factory or commercial enterprise that is not benefited directly or indirectly by the State Fair. There are the same benefits for the inventor and manufacturer as for the farmer and stockman. In stimulating industries the State Fair exerts an ever widening influence. The general exhibition of any article of merit increases popular knowledge and demand for it and enhances prices accordingly. Let any new and useful article appear among the exhibits at the State Fair and almost immediately there is a demand for it that will tax the capacity of the manufacturers. In no way can producers improve the markets with so little expenditure of time and money as in making exhibits at the State Fair. The State Fair means we have resources worthy of general attention and a people who know how to improve and utilize them.
The Tennessee State Fair, which will be held at Nashville September 16-21, is going to be the biggest and best exhibition ever held in the history of the Association. Let every loyal citizen of Tennessee commence now to arrange his or her plans to attend this great exhibition in September.

POTATOES, THEIR FOOD VALUE.
P. Margaret P. Foulks.
By Margaret B. Fodiks.
Owing to the rapid development of the potato growing industry as a money crop and its steadily increasing popularity as a food, it will be both interesting and beneficial to know its history and its real food value.
The potato, called by different people, White potato, English potato or Irish potato, stands in the vegetable kingdom, second only to the cereals.
The most important products of the vegetable kingdom are the bread stuffs and cereals, but next to these we place the potato tuber.
The White potato 'came from a wild plant first discovered in Chili, the root or tuber being used by the natives as food. It was carried to Europe by the Spanards about 1580 and was for a number of years grown in gardens more for a curiosity than for food. The belief that it was a poisonous plant kept the people from using it as a food until a series of bad harvests made the staple food crops so poor that the potato became popular and has been increasing in popularity ever since. It came to this country 'about the end of the 16th century and was first grown in Virginia and North Carolina. The fact that potatoes can be raised with small cost, kept over winter and can be prepared in so many different ways made it rise quickly to a prominent place in our vegetable kingdom.
Statistics are usually considered dull, but we can hardly imagine the increase and popularity of this vegetable until we look at government statistics, which gave us a short while ago these figures: White potatoes raised in this country amounted to 273,318,167 bushels or 40.7 percent of the whole vegetable crop of the United States. These potatoes were valued at $98,380,110. The greater amount of these are used as food, a small portion is used for animal fodder and for manufacturing starch, alcohol and glucose, but it is mainly the inferior quality used in this way. In Europe most of the starch on the market is made from the potato, but in this country our corn starch has supplanted it and we seldom see potato starch on our market, it being used principally by manufacturers in the making of paper and textiles. The greatest part of our winter potatoes are raised in the northeastern and central states, the southern States producing chiefly the early varieties which are shipped to the northern markets.
With cultivation the potato seems to have lost its power of producing seed. In its wild state it was raised from seed but now as we know, the grower uses the old tubers, each eye in the potato producing a new bud or plant. The potato is really a large undesground stem in which the plant stores material held in reserve for the growth of new plants. The value of the potato as a food lies in the starch it contains, it being about 95 per cent, water and starch. A diagram of a potato will show plainly that the bulk of it is water. The edible portion, that is, the potato without skin, holds an average of about 78 per cent, water, so only about 20 per cent, of the whole potato has any food value, 18 per cent, off this being starch. The nitrogenous matter or protein in potatoes is very slight, and most of what is there is of no nutritive value. The very small amount of fat is found chiefly in the skin and is so scant that it is not usually counted when discussing their food value. The most important mineral matter found in potatoes

is potash, soda and lime. The juice of a potato contains citric, tartaric and succinic acid. It is said the flavor of the potato comes from traces of solamin, which is poisonous if in large quantities. Old potatoes which have sprouted or been exposed to light will often turn green near the skin and in these a larger quantity of solamin is found, and is also found in the potato which is not well developed. If used as a food at all, care should be taken to cut away all of the green part next to the skin. The per cent. of starch water, etc., will of course vary according to age, cultivation, climate and soil. In the young potato there is less starch than mature, for as the tuber lies in the ground the starch increases, therefore the well-developed ones are the ones that are mealy when cooked. However when a potato begins to sprout some of this starch turns to glucose and the potato is more watery and less appetizing, besides having a larger amount of solamin which makes them less desirable.
The young potato and earlier varieties are usually said to have a better flavor. They have less starch, more protein, acids and mineral matter. It is the unformed starch and immature cell tissues that caused the early potato to be less digestible and often causing severe bowel trouble. The later varieties when well matured are fluffy and mealy when cooked and are considered one of the most easily digested of our starchy foods.
While filling a very important place among the foodstuffs the potato used alone as a diet would be extremely onesided. A min attempting to nourish himself on a diet of potatoes alone would have to assimilate ten to eleven pounds a day which would be impossible, while if he close a diet of eggs, flesh and bread, two to three pounds would be sufficient. One pound of dry uncooked rice is said to equal in food value four and a half pounds of potatoes. Since the potato is so poor in protein, our tissue building food, it cannot be used to support life and should be used in connection with foods rich in protein, as meat, milk, eggs, cheese, etc. The abundant supply of mineral matter in the potato is said to be a valuable aid to digestion and in spite of the fact that one occasionally hears that potatoes are indigestible and unwholesome they are eaten by all sorts of people the world over.
Potatoes are u usually cooked by broiling, baking or frying, although there are hundreds of recipes for cooking them, the foundation is usually one of these three methods. If a potato is boiled with the skin on it, it will lose less nutriment than when pared and boiled. If the skin is left on it is better to pare a ring around the middle so the moisture may escape, otherwise it will become soggy. When baked in their skins potatoes undergo the same change as in boiling, except they lose none of their ingredients except a very little water which evaporates through the skin. When the water contained in a potato becomes heated it expands, rupturing the starch cells. Baking seems best to break up the starch cells and in this way the potato offers less resistance to the often of the digestive juices than soag or ill cooked ones. If raw ones are used to fry they should be cut into small pieces so the heat may penetrate enough to cook the starch thoroughly before getting too brown. If one wishes to reduce weight they should keep clear of fried potatoes as they are usually prepared. In potatoes served in a cream sauce we get the protein in the milk and flour used and the fat from butter. If cooked with cheese we get protein and some fat. When used plain, boiled or baked, they should best be served with meat or fish.

ORIGINAL UNION CARNIVAL
Of all the carnivals held this season, the one to be conducted by St. John A. M. E. Church next week promises to eclipse anything yet attempted. On every hand the people are discussing the pleasant time they enjoyed last year and are wishing for the gates to be thrown open at Athletic Park on the 16th. Every indication points to record-breaking crowds this year. The amusements will be many. The committee on concessions, which looked after this feature of the show said many new attractions had been secured for this carnival. Everything is being done to make it pleasant for the visitors. Thousands of colored people will visit the city while the white Fair is in session, and many of them will avail themselves of the opportunity to spend a pleasant evening at the carnival, rather than be jostled and crowded on the cars going to the State Fair.
Athletic Park is so situated as to make it easily reached from every part of the city. Thousands live so near they never think of a car when

float over the new building which now is nearly finished at a cost of $135,000. The keys of the city were presented by Hon. Ben Davis, who is chairman of the General Committee on arrangements and Grand Secretary of the State of Georgia, editor of the Atlanta Independent. Grand Master Morris appointed a committee on credentials and the assistant secretaries. While the election of officers will not be held till Thursday, the consensus of opinion is that Hon. Ben J. Davis will be elected by acclamation as National Grand Master, and W. L. Houston, of Washington, D. C. National Grand Secretary. The most important matter before the grand body aside from the regular reports of officers will be discussion and settlement of the Endowment Fund as applied to states, and the removal of the headquarters from Philadelphia to Washington and reports of the Grand Officers.
Tuesday night, Hon. Harry S. Cummings, member of the Council, Baltimore, Md., delivered a most eloquent address, reflecting great credit upon himself and the order. Mr. Cummings is the Grand Attorney-General.
Wednesday night, Grand Master E. H. Morris delivered the biennial grand master's address, Mr. Morris, who is one of the race's greatest orators, held his audience spellbound for nearly two hours. He told of the history of the Order from its birth to the present day. He eulogized the founder, Peter Ogden, and said from this grand and noble character there is permeating in the heurts of Odd Fellows and Households of Ruth in all parts of America the principle upon which this order was founded. It was largely through the keenness, foresight and intelligence of Col. Morris that this order has been able to plant its colors in nearly every hamlet, town and city of America, and stretching its borders to the isles of the sea. At the conclusion of his address he made a number of recommendations that will be taken up by the Committee on Grand Master's Address and reported to the body. It was the ablest address that the conclave has heard in years.
The treatment toward the delegates has been fine. The hand of courtesy and hospitality has been extended to all the delegates and visitors, and nothing but the highest praise has been spoken of the people of Atlanta. The reception committee is headed by M. B. Morton, assisted by Dr. W. M. Penn, Mr. R. C. McAden welcomed the delegates to the Independent office.
The office of Benjamin Davis is a bee-hive of industry. Over forty are connected with the District Grand Lodge headquarters. Among those connected with the office are book-keeping department, Miss Lucile Dennis, Miss Rowena Reed, Miss Willie Moore, Miss Marie Sims, Mrs Zella Ragland, Mrs C. D. Hawkins, Mr. Julius Foster.
