Vol. VII. WILL BE DEDICATED IN BIRMING- HAM. To Take Place on Emancipation Day —Alabama Penny Savings Bank Pioneer Institution—Branch Houses Established—Many Leading Men Expected. Ex- Congressman Murry. Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 22.—Negroes of Birmingham are making big preparations to combine in their annual celebration of emancipation, January 1st, the formal opening of the new Alabama Penny Saving Bank building, and the 50th anniversary of the freedom of the Negro. Hon. A. A. Murray, former Congressman from South Carolina, has been secured for the principal speaker, and a large number of prominent men from various sections of the state will witness the ceremonies and attend the excuses. The Alabama Penny Savings Bank after 22 years existence is the strongest banking institution conducted by Negroes in the state. The parent institution has branches in Montgomery, Anniston and Seirra, and to together they have a business of $497,202.41. This was an increase over last year of more than $80,000. Dr. W. R. Pettiford, founder and president of the Alabama Penny Savings Bank declares that the institution will make a special effort to get the loose, idle money of the people and place it in channels that will benefit them. He regards the dedication of this new building, and the successful career embodied therein, as a sign of financial freedom. The new building has been erected at a cost of $60,000. It is a six story steel re-inforced structure, in the heart of the business section, and is a distinct note in the mechanical and business circles of Negroes. It was designed by Negro architects and erected by Negro contractors. Its exterior is imposing and beautiful, and the interior is of the best and most approved material in bank and office fixtures. The opening of this new building, with first-class offices for the business and professional men of Birlingham ham speaks volumes for the business ability of the financial leaders of the Eirmingham District, and for the possibilities of Negroes in this community. ANOTHER BRAVE SOLDIER DEAD. ANOTHER BRAVE SOLDIER DEAD. One by one those gallant soldiers who wore the uniforms of the United States army are passing to their reward. Only a few now are left to present themselves as a living testimony of the courage and valor as was shown by the Negroes at Fort Pillow, Fort Wagner, Fort Negley and Neeley's Bend. Among the latest to answer the last call and to stack arms forever and ever was Wm. H. Brown, who for a number of years was a resident of this city and who was held in the very highest esteem by both old and young. Mr. Brown died at the home of his son, Rev. J. A. Brown, on Stanley street., Thursday morning, December 12, after an illness of more than a year, having been confined to his bed just one month. While his death had been expected for some time, it came as a severe shock to those around him. Mr. Brown was born April 4, 1834, in the state of Maryland. He was a gallant soldier in the civil war. The following children survive: Rev. J. A. Brown, pastor of the Zion Baptist Church at Watertown, Tenn.; Wm. Brown, James Brown, of Cincinnati; G. W. Brown, of Pittsburgh; Mrs. Susie Wenkley, of Columbus; T. H. Brown and Mrs. Grant Perkins, of this city. The funeral was held Sunday afternoon at the Fairfield Baptist Church. The following persons served as pall bearers: W. W. Southall, S. S. Hughes, Henry Hughes, Richard Overton, H. Willis, and Nelson Moore. The remains were interred at Mt. Ararat Cemetery. CHRISTMAS AT COUNTY JAIL PAT MOLLOY TOAST MASTER. Sheriff Longhurst made all of the inmates of the county jail know that Christmas meant for all mankind to be happy, by serving a big dinner to every inmate. Several shoats were barbecued, and 60 pounds of turkey wree roasted for the prisoners. Pat Molloy Toast Master. The colored female prisoners were fed before the colored men, and Pat Molloy, who is charged with killing a merchant named Henning, and whose case is now appealed to the Supreme Court, was allowed to eat with the women and was appointed toastmaster by the officials. To the surprise of all Pat came to the table dressed like a preacher. He made a fine toastmaster and recited poetry to the delight of all. Every prisoner was made to feel as happy as it is possible for one to be under the circumstances. Mrs. Amanda Bailey, of North Sixth street, has left the city for a visit to her mother. NASHVILLE GLOBE. EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION. IO COMMEMORATE FIFTY YEARS OF FREEDOM. Exercises To Be Held At Mt. Olive Baptist Church—Elaborate Preparations Being Made For The Occasion—Dr. T. O. Fuller Will be the Principal Speaker—Exhibit to be Held Later in the Year. The Negroes of Nashville are planning for a big celebration at Mt. Olive Baptist Church, January 1st in commemoration of the fifth anniversary of their freedom. Rev. T. O. Fuller, President of Howe Institute, Memphis, has been secured for the principal speaker. Rev. Fuller is one of the leading educators in the South and has given much study to all phases of Negro development in this country. Other prominent speakers will make short addresses on this occasion and other efforts will be put forth to make this celebration one that will be creditable to the Negroes since the Emancipation Proclamation was issued by Abraham Lincoln. The effort to arrange for this celebration is a little tardy in maturing, but it is believed that the move will meet a hearty response from the people and that on Wednesday night at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church an outpouring will be on hand that will show how much the Negroes appreciate their freedom. Plans as being considered for a bigger celebration later in the year, when an exhibition will be held in this city, at which the progress of the race will be more vividly displayed than it is possible to do at this season of the year. It is planned to hold an exhibition of some kind, probably in connection with the State Fair exhibit, at which time the whole State of Tennessee will put on exhibition its development along all lines of its fifty years of freedom. The meeting Wednesday night will serve as an impetus to this move for a bigger celebration. ARRESTED ON MURDER CHARGE Clarence Shelton, charged with murder, was arrested Wednesday morning by Detectives Varley and Woosley. Shelton and Isaac Rucker were amusing themselves in a pool room near the corner of Fourth avenue and Jackson street, shooting holes in the ceiling, when Rucker left the room. In a few minutes it is said, Rucker returned, and as he entered the room Shelton told him that if he entered the door he would be killed. Rucker, it is said, came in and Shelton fired. SAM LANGFORD WINS FROM Mc VEY, ON KNOCKOUT. Sydney, Australia, Dec. 26.—Sam Langford knocked out Sam McVey in the thirteenth round to-day in one of the fiercest heavyweight battles seen in Australia in years. Langford had the best of the fight throughout. He severely punished McVey, who, however, made a plucky defense. Langford began fighting fiercely in the first round, landing lefts and rights and driving McVey to the ropes. Only during the second and third rounds did McVey show any sign of equality with his opponent, and even then his punches did not worry Langford a great deal. In the fourth round Langford floored McVey with an upper cut to the chin and from then on McVey simply tried to protect himself, but received severe punishment. The finish came in the thirteenth round when Langford again forced McVey to the ropes and then landed innumerable lefts and rights on his face, causing McVey to fall completely. To-day's fight between Sam Langford and Sam McVey, the two heavyweight Negro boxers, was the sixth time they had met. Langford has now defeated McVey on four occasions, once he was beaten by McVey an done of their fights ended in a draw. Five of these matches were fought in Australia and the remaining one in Paris. Langford holds the title of heavyweight champion of England and McVey that of heavyweight champion of Australia. It was reported at one time that Langford was to fight Jack Johnson for the championship of the world. Sam Langford, who is 32 years old, entered the ring as a professional in 1902 and has during the last ten years had a remarkable boxing career. MRS. LILLIAN MCCLAIN GRANT. Miss Temple Jones, of Tyler, Tex. who was here for a week or ten days, has gone back to the Lone Star State. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY DECEMBER 27, 1912 GENEROUS HEARTED CITIZENS, OHURCHES, SOCIETIES, CLUBS AND INDIVIDUALS MAKE XMAS MERRY That Christmas is a time when all nue, North, who prepared many baskets and distributed them to poor and fortunate should remember the unfortunate and poor was never anywhere more demonstrated than it was in Nashville this week. As had been forecasted, several of the churches, societies and other organizations had prepared to make some of the most dismal homes in the city gleam with the sunshine and hope of Christmas morning. The Phyllis Wheatley Club distributed food, clothing and fuel to many of the destitute homes in the city from St. Paul Church. Little hearts were made to leap with joy and bliss, and aged mothers and fathers were seen to shed tears as they were made to realize that someone had thought of their dear little ones on Christmas, Holy Trinity Episcopal Church did a nice part for humanity at their free Christmas tree, and the sunshine of hope and comfort was carried to many homes from this source. The Ladies of the Household of Ruth had a free Christmas tree for the poor and destitute children Thursday at the Odd Fellows Auditorium. It was a happy day for the little folks who were made to feel that somebody loved them. They were seen coming from the hall with their little bundles, skipping and hopping with their faces beaming with happiness. The Ladies Club of Northwest Nashville had a nice surprise Wednesday at their Christmas tree for the poor. Many individuals took it upon themselves to go into the homes of those whom they knew to be in destitute circumstances and divided with them their portion of Christmas goods. Prominent among these was Mrs. L. Landers, of 1503 Fourteenth ave. Nashville is to come into the limelight even more brilliantly than ever before, as a religious denominational center, where all races and creeds may truly call it "Jerusalem," if the plans adopted by the Executive Committee of the National Metoka and Galeda Organized Class Movement, which held its last meeting at the National Baptist Publishing House last Tuesday afternoon, carries. The entire matter, as agreed upon by the Executive Committee, is practicable and feasible, and for that reason the city as a whole will gain much in the plans now under way, as it is calculated that the proposed new movement will bring a larger influence upon the Sunday-school forces and benefit Nashville from the Organized Sunday-school class point of view, as no other denominational movement of recent years has done. According to the action of the committee, the central organization or the headquarters of the Metoka and Galeda classes of the United States is to be made at Nashville. Offices are to be opened, paraphernalla will be made and kept on hand and periodicals for the classes sent out; in fact, a bee-hive of workers will be the ultimate aim of the Central Organization. Among the first steps taken were an agreement of co-operation between the Executive Committee with the local workers, drafting of plans for this Central Organization, and the opening of a regular correspondence with the organized class throughout the United States is to be taken up. A record of every Metoka and Galeda class will also be kept on file here. The National Baptist Union Review has pledged its support in giving space to whatever the Central Organization may prepare to hand out, thus acting as a lever for this movement. Editor Crenshaw, who was present and spoke at length, declared that the material and opportunity for furthering such plans as had been beautifully outlined by the Committee, was to be found in reach of Nashville, almost under the shadow of the Publishing Board. The Organized Class Movement was erected at the Sunday-School Congress at Meridian, Miss., more than a year ago, and is perhaps the first distinctly Negro organization of classes in any of the denominations or the race. The selection of the unique name, "Metoka," which Greek anglicized, meaning "fellowship," is designated for the men's classes. The word "Galeda" is Hebrew, which translated means "the heap of witnesses," and is the name of the class for young ladies. The Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress, Henry A. Boyd, stated that all schools were eligible to representation by classes, and that, he expected classes to be organized in every one of the 20,000 schools, who are now members of the Sunday-School Congress. The Superintendent of the Teacher-Training Course, Dr. Plus, stated that in three or nue, North, who prepared many baskets and distributed them to poor and destitute families on Wednesday morning. Each basket contained a chicken, fresh eggs, Irish and sweet potatoes, coffee, bread and candy and fruits for the little folks. Mr. Landers loaded fifteen baskets in his survey and accompanied by Mrs. Landers he made the rounds of the city of places that had been pointed out to him by pastors of the churches and gave out the fifteen baskets to those persons whose names had been given to him. He tells of some pititable scenes witnessed in the homes where he visited. One man had been paralyzed for six years and had a feeble wife, who had almost exhausted herself waiting on him at night and working in the day to sustain him. At another place an old gentleman, stooped in years, with practically nothing to eat and very little fire whose wife was also in feeble health was a scene pititable beyond expression. The old gentleman could not believe at first that anyone had thought of him, and when he was made to realize that he had been remembered he and his wife bowed in tears. In another home was found eight children huddled around a few embers. They were fatherless and the mother was compelled to leave them at home to go out and search for food. Some of them had two three or four stockings on and other rags to serve as shoes. Many other scenes that were witnessed by Mr. Landers and related to the Globe representative were such as to sustain the contention that those people who were able-bodied and living in ordinary comfort owe it to humanity to provide that with which fortune blessed them, for those who are unfortunate. four years this organization would have a membership of 100,000 throughout the United States. It was stated that after the holiday season, plans would be completed and made public for the publication of a Metoka and Galeda Magazine, in the interest of the organized classes, supporting them in every way to bring the classes up to the standard that has been set for them. This magazine, with the support of 1,000 classes already organized, will have the largest circulation at birth of any religious journal that has been published in Nashville for many years, as it is stated on good authority that those classes will rally as one to the support of this magazine. At present the paraphernula for the classes consists of charters, pendants, buttons, pins, badges, constitutions and by-laws, watch fobs, invitation cards, charts and in fact more than the average person in Nashville realizes. At the Central Organization, which will maintain elaborate headquarters, will be the offices of the Superintendent of the Teacher Training Course, the Sunday-School Colporters, Missionaries, and in fact the entire National Executive Committee, with national officers will be logically stationed here, giving to Nashville another mammoth department connected with the National Baptist Publishing Board that will equal if not surpass the magnificent strides she has already made in leading other cities of the United States for denominational endeavor. PURITY LODGE NO. 42 K. OF P. ELECTS OFFICERS ON Tuesday night, December 24th, while old Santa Claus was getting ready for his long annual travel, Purity Lodge No. 42 was in session transacting such business as legally came before it, and the most important part of the business was the election of officers, which was one off the best and most harmonious elections ever held since the setting up of said lodge over nine years ago. We here publish the names of the newly elected officers, although a history of the lodge from the beginning to the present, including names and workings of all the past chancellors and charter members, will be given in the Pythian Special of June 10th, 1913.

Anderson, and sister, Mrs. Martha Wells Brown, of Fourteenth avenue, North. JOHN RAY ARRESTED. JOHN RAY ARRESTED CHARGED ASSAULTING MRS. LAWS. Alleged to Have Confessed the Crime —Tells Conflicting Story to Globe Representative—Says He was Drunk and Don't Remember What Had "Are you positive that he is the man, Mrs. Laws? Don't say that he is unless you are positively certain," admonished Dr. R. E. Fort, who with Dr. Richard Dake, had treated Mrs. Laws' injuries. "I am positively certain, positively certain," said she. "There is the same black cap that he wore. There is the same brown package that he had in his pocket." Ray was arrested Tuesday afternoon by Patrolmen Boyd, J. W. Bryant and Frank McKinstry, after a thorough search had been made of the whole of West Nashville for a man answering the description given by Mrs. Laws. A telephone mess sage was received at police headquarters saying that a drunken man had been found in an outhouse at the rear of 2800 Jefferson street. Efforts were made by Lieutenant Smith to get connection with the officers in that section, and failing, Court Officer Boyd volunteered to go to the scene with Guard Connor. They arrived to find that the man had been driven away by the jeers of some small boys. Officers Bryant and McKinstry arrived and the three began a thorough and systematic search of the entire neighborhood, resulting in the location of Ray in a house near by by the latter named officers. Ray was in a drunken condition. He could give no plausible excuse for being in the neighborhood. He could not tell of his whereabouts during the morning. Within a short time after he had been arrested Ray was placed in the (Continued on page 4.) NEGRO PORTER A HERO WHEN TRAIN BANDITS APPEAR. (By Associated Press.) Kansas City, Dec. 24.—To Walter Daniels, a Negro porter of Kansas City, should go the credit of saving the valuable consignments in the "through safe" of the express car of St. Louis and San Francisco train no. 112. Oklahoma City to Kansas City, which was held up near Crandler, Okla, last night, according-to-passengers on the train which arrived here today. Daniels shot and killed the Negro bandit while the latter was in the act of robbing the express car. According to passengers the robber got on the train as it left Chandler, about 9 o'clock. He first entered the chair car, where he robbed the conductor and compelled him to lead the way to the express car. The robber had forced the express messenger and conductor to open a small safe containing little of value and was trying to force them to open the larger, safe when Daniels, who had obtained a revolver from a passenger, shot him in the back. W. S. Gordon, a private detective, reinforced the porter and eighteen shots were fired before the Negro lay still. The body, unidentified, was taken back to Chandler. "That porter was the only one of us not scared to death," said George Peterson, of Tulsa, a passenger in the chair car. "The porter sneaked into the next car and got a revolver while the rest of us were under the seats. As he came back following the holdup in the express he asked somebody with a revolver to come and help. No one in my car seemed to have one. The bandit paid no attention to passengers." PASTORS SUSPEND SERVICE HOUR That the organized Sunday-school class movement known as the Metoka nd Galeda, which is being so vigorously pushed throughout the city by the special campaign committee is becoming more popular each week, was demonstrated for the past two Sundays when the pastors of two churches, the North Sixth Street Baptist and the Mt. Gilead Baptist Churches, of East and South Neshville, respectively, were so impressed with the objects of these two classes that they cheerfully gave away their eleven o'clock service, on Sunday in order that the Revs. T. J. Ridley, the National Vice President, and Henry A. Boyd, the Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress, might organize these two classes. At Mt. Gilead there was a record-breaking attendance to witness the organization of the class. Rev. E. H. Page and Superintendent Buchanan stated to a Globe representative that the Galeda class for women was organized with a membership of twenty-eight young ladies. Mrs. Bette O'Neal was elected President; Mrs. Mary L. Dotson, Vice President; Mrs. Mattie Williams, Secretary, and Mrs. Narcis Bishop, Treasurer, and Miss Bessie Padv. Libarian. The Metoka Class for men had 18 members at its organization and Mr. William Smith was elected President, and Mr. Thomas Hendricks, Secretary of this class. TENNESSEE'S LEAL- ING NEGRO JOURNAL No.52 WOMAN KILLED TUESDAY NIGHT. MYSTERY SURROUNDS DEATH OF "WILLIE" DAVIS. Jake Wagner Notified Police—Says Woman Shot Herself—Story Not Believed by Officers—Wagner Held as Precaution—Has Committed Other Crimes In Years Past. "This woman down here shot herself accidentally," said Jake Wagner, colored, to Lieutenant Long over the phone shortly before 10 o'clock Tuesday night. Wagner asked that officers be sent to the house, Ninth avenue and Cedar street, to investigate the matter. When Detectives Varley and Woosley arrived upon the scene they found "Willie" Davis, aged 26, lying in the snow in the front yard, dead, with a bullet wound in her right breast. Wagner, who was placed under arrest, stated at the station that he and the woman were celebrating, that he had fired five shots from the 38-caliber revolver, and that the woman wished to fire the last shot. Wagner states that he then gave her the weapon and went into the house, and a moment later the report and groans attracted him to the porch. The body of the woman was taken to the undertaking establishment of McGavock & Co. Wagner committed an assault on Russell Mack a few years ago, fr m which he finally died. About a year and six months ago he shot a porter at a saloon which he claimed was done in self-defense. He was acquitted of the charges in both cases. It is said he is the only prisoner that has ever escaped from the new jail. DR. TOWNSEND LECTURES TO MEHARRY Y. M. G. A. Consequent upon announcement Dr. A. M. Townsend, professor of pathology of Meharyar Medical College, addressed the Y. M. C. A. on Sunday afternoon, the 22nd inst., and attracted a large crowd, composed of the student body and a large number of the people of the city, all of whom were eager to listen to the words of wisdom of that distinguished speaker. The doctor took as his subject, "Heroes in Common Life." After epitomizing on the heroes of world-renown of both ancient and modern times, he contrasted therewith the victors of toil, sickness, domestic troubles, Christian martyrdom, woman's chastity, injustices of society and those of self-control, proclaimed them as heroes whose triumphs were recorded in heaven, and declared that the hills of eternity would re-echo the songs of their praise. The musical part of the meeting was a brilliant feature and added greatly to the enlivenment. The programme was as follows: Processional hymn .....Congregation (Stand up for Jesus.) Scripture reading. Rev. L. H. C. David (By President of Y. M. C. A.) Antihero Choir East Nashville 1st Bap. Church Violin solo .....E. E. Kingswold Address .....Dr. A. M. Townsend ("Heroes in Common Life") "Heroes in Common Life" Anthem ..... Choir Anthem ..... Choir Benediction ..... S. H. J. David PAYNE CHAPEL'S CHRISTMAS EXERCISES. The Sunday-school of Payne Chapel A. M. E. Church, Rev. H. L. P. Jones, pastor, had quite a treat for those who attended its Christmas celebration Wednesday night. December 25. Misses Viola and Willie Belle Flagg and Mrs. Sallie King, with the co-operation of the children, had prepared a delightfully entertaining program, and in its faultless rendition the young people showed that they are true progressives. The exercises were opened with music, invocation by the pastor, Rev. H. L. P. Jones, and an address of welcome, then came a beautiful cantata, "Preparing for Father Christmas," in which "The Old Woman in the Shoe." with her innumerable children, brought cheers from the large audience. But perhaps the most beautiful part of the evening's entertainment was the "Star Drill" by ten girls clad in white dresses dotted with gleaming silver stars. In the darkened auditorium, each girl carried a lighted candle, and after grouping themselves so as to form a five-pointed star, they proceeded with the drill in a manner that showed great skill and preparation. The music furnished for this occasion was appropriate and sweetly suggestive of the fristmas spirit. After the two Christmas trees had been stripped of presents Rev. H. L. P. Jones pronounced the benediction. MISS SCALES TO MRS JOHNSON MISS SCALES TO MRS. JOHNSON. Miss Mattle Belle Scales was among the last to have the honor of entertaining Mrs. Carrie Bryant Johnson. This affair was given at the Scales home on Warren street, Monday from 3 to 8 p.m., during which time a long list of guests came in to partake of the hospitality of this home, and to make the evening all the more enjoyable were the beautiful decorations and a toothsome menu.

FRIDAY. DECEMBER 27, 1912. Christmas Celebration. It was evidenced in this city Wednesday that the people of the South are beginning to recognize more and more Christmas day as a time when all people should show reverence to their Creator. In years past it was conceded to every man, if he was so disposed, to get a jug of whiskey Christmas, and put as much of it in his stomach as he could hold; and the old saying was readily accepted that since Christmas comes only once a year that nobody should care if everybody got drunk. But as intelligence ascends more people are coming to realize that Christmas means more than a day for frolicking. Everybody should be happy on that day, that is, all who believe that Christ was the Son of God, and that he came into the world for the express purpose of giving spiritual freedom to all mankind; and it is commendable that the world is beginninf to recognize that this event is to be reverenced and not desecrated. True, some things happened in Nashville on Christmas that are to be regretted. There were some killings and some other happenings that are to be deplored by all, but taking it as a whole, there was a decided improvement in the deportment of the people Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Less fireworks were used, and while the spirit of good-will was prevalent, the desire to make it unpleasant and unsafe for others to be on the streets was not as rampant as it has been in times past. Another encouraging sign among the Negro citizens especially was the interest shown in the poor and unfortunate. It is encouraging indeed to see Negroes taking to themselves the responsibility of caring for their own people, showing that they feel it their duty to divide what they have with those who have not. As a result several homes were made happy, both of the unfortunate and the fortunate. For that man is happiest, after all who knows that he has been the instrument of making some one else happy. Emancipation Day Celebration. January 1st will mark the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the Negroes of this country. Nashville has not made as extensive preparation to celebrate this day as it was thought would be made. But it is learned that at Mt. Olive Baptist Church a creditable demonstration will be made Wednesday night for the commemoration of this event. It will be unfortunate if the Negroes of Tennessee fail to show the proper appreciation of their freedom, and it is hoped that a more creditable demonstrator will be made than is evidenced by the interest already taken. Tennessee and Nashville in particu- lar, are given to doing things on short notice. In this instance they would do well to sustain that reputation to the fullest extent. In a few days we will have with us the members of the Tennessee Assembly. Come on, gentlemen, there is a room in the inn for the caucus. He who has a dollar after Christmas can verily count it two. For it is the exception rather than the rule that them ost of us wid up broke. Editorial Clipping. Elsewhere in this issue is given the letter of Rev. J. A. Jones, president of Turner Normal school of Shelbyville, Tenn., on the matter of Fisk University's vacant presidency. The Nashville Globe and The Fellowship Herald have contended that a Negro president should be selected, and The Herald prophesied that some Negro would rise to remark that the time had come for a Negro to be elected to that post. But The Herald did not expect that person to be a graduate of Fisk and the head of the school himself! His argument speaks for itself and a careful reading of it will show the gist of his reasons to be: 1st. That Fisk is not a Negro school, that is—owned by Negroes. 2nd. That race prejudice in the A. M. A. is against a Negro president. 3rd. That the place has always been filled by a white Congregational minister and as there are no Negro Congregational ministers capable of filling it, therefore it always will be held by white Congregational ministers. Rev. Jones seems to think that because the American Missionary Association owns Fisk University it would never consider the policy of placing over it a man of the race for whom the school was established and has been maintained all these years. He feels that it will fall utterly to see that no better proof of the success of the labors of the A. M. A. would be shown than to employ a man of the race it has helped to educate. No greater rejection on its training of Negro youth could be given than to say fifty years of such education had not produced a Negro capable of filling the office of president. The Freedmen's Aid Society has had Negro presidents over several of its schools and have thus not only developed the highest abilities of these men but have filled their schools by so doing. The Baptists have done the same thing with the Atlanta Baptist College of which John Hope is president, its success under this scholarly young giant is crowding Atlanta University, and some of the finest young Negro men of up-to-date type who come to Chicago every year, are those who come from the inspiration of John Hope's personality and teaching. In all these cases the miracle was wrought without the schools in question belonging to Negroes, and the time is rapidly coming when Negroes will refuse to patronize schools which refuse to give honor and position to they merit it their children. When this time comes, there will be no presidency for white Congregational ministers to fill at Fisk or any other school for Negroes. As to the absurd deduction that the Fisk University presidency is to be kept for Congregational ministers, it needs only to be pointed out that fitness rather than calling should be the standard. Princeton University had always a Presbyterian minister for president not merely because he was a minister but because he had the requisite abilities for the place, besides being a clergyman. When Woodrow Wilson was chosen, it was because of his fitness nor was he turned down because he was not a minister. Among Negro educators, The Herald can think of a dozen men who will give the trustees of Fisk University what they want—a successful administration, give them a position which they cannot hope to fill in a school for white students. Prominent among that number are Kelley Miller of Howard University. Dr. Bowen of Atlanta, or Dubois of New York.—Fellowship Herald. Y. M. C. A. NEXT SUNDAY 3 P. M. Y. L. B. Ballon, a professor of Spruce Street Baptist Church, will address the Young Men's Christian Association next Sunday at 3 p. m. Dr. Gloria is a strong preacher and will bring to us a message that all men must to hear. His subject will be "Strong Drink." Less Sunday Major E. B Stahlman brought the men a real "Association message." Lawyer Young in introducing the speaker referred at length to his excellent record as a statesman and citizen. The Major expressed his unwillingness to take unto himself any special credit for whatever good he had done "The Maker of all good put it into my heart and the credit is his." He said: "By helping some one else you are helping yourself." This is a valuable truth and all men, but most especially public men, should treasure it "He that would save his life shall lose it." Dr. N. H. Pius. Dec. 15. December 15th Dr. N. H Plus spoke to the Association. Hsi subject was "Run It Out." A more practical message it has not been ours to hear. This is the second time in the past six months that Dr. Plus has spoken to the Y. M. C A., and each time his message has been instructive and in spiring. R P. Hamlin, of Brooklyn, N. Y. Here. Last Week. Mr. R. P. Hamlin, of Brooklyn, N. N. now located in Louisville, Ky., International Secretary of the Colored Office Department of the Y. M. C. A., was in the city last week for a couple of days acquaintingly himself with the work and the people that are standing and encouraging it. He was favorably impressed with the industry and thrift of the Nashville people. "The National Baptist Publishing House, the Methodist Publishing House and the two Negro banks speak loudly for the business men of Nashville," he said. Mr. Hamlin served as local secretary in Brooklyn for five years. For the past two years he has been on the International force. In all these places he has rendered efficient service. While here from Tuesday evening to Friday morning he stopped with Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd. MRS. MOSES MCKISACK ENTER- TAINS. On Monday of this week. Mrs. Moses McKissack, of Edgehill street, was at home with a beautiful six-course dinner in honor of Mrs. Carle Bryant Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga., and Miss Ethel McElwee, of Chicago. Ill. The affair was very enjoyable, yet only a limited number of the intimate friends were present. The beautiful McKissack home, a bungalow of the new type, lent more class to the occasion. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1912. THE SMART SET. Colored shows have come and colored shows have gone, but the one show that made a big hit here this season, "The Smart Set," which put on an attraction worthy of much comment last Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week at the Majestic Theater, is destined to go on forever as the greatest of all shows of its kind. Headed by Salem Tutt Whitney, a better comedian than who never lived, with the book by that clever individual himself, with music by T. L. Corwell, whose work needs no comment, with a singing and dancing chorus that has never been equaled here, and with a production elaborate in every detail, the "Smart Set" entertained thousands of pleasure-seekers, who, after witnessing the show for the second time, now have little wonder that this attraction is the greatest success that has ever come to Neshville. "The Smart Set" came this season with new costumes and scenery throughout, new songs and new dances, and in some respects a new story which exploited the abilities of that clever bunch of entertainers, to say nothing of the fiftiest bunch of Copley beauties ever seen on any stage. They made a special hit with th Dixieland Drill, the Ragtime Jubilee in plantation songs, and original interpretations of the Bunny Hug, Teddy Bear, Sooag Rale and other similar compositions. Salem Tutt Whitney appeared in the title role as the "Darktown Politician," supported by J. Homer Tutt, known everywhere as the bronzed exponent of Chesterfieldian appearance, and Blanche Thompson, a winsome prima dona of recognized ability. CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our friends for the many acts of kindness shown us during the illness of our father, Wm. H. Brown; for the beautiful floral designs in our hour of bereavement. Rev. J. A. Brown, T. H. Brown, G. W. Brown, Mrs. Susie Weakley and Mrs. Grant Perkins. "THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH" PLAYER STATE STATEMENT PLAYED AT STATE NORMAL. On Thursday, at the regular chapel hour, the student body was favored with an excellent address by Rev. Y. M Tillet, Dean of the Theological Department of Vanderbilt University. He impressed upon his audience the absolute necessity of having a threefold aim in life: to be cultured and enlightened, to build character, and to serve one's fellow-man. But character was emphasized as being the cornerstone of the other two. No education, he says, is worth while unless it holds out as a shining light, culture, character and service. The formal dedication of the school will take place January 1, 1913. At that time, the governor will be present, members of the 'legislature and other state officials'. The friends and patrons of the institution are warned to stand in readiness to grace the occasion with their presence. On December 20th an Operetta illustrating "The Village Blacksmith" was presented to a crowded house. The different nations were represented by two or more girls, together with the flags of the respective nations. The folk songs played an important part. Mrs. Brown, the directress, assisted by the other members of the faculty, is to be compilated for the excellent training that she gave the students, thus making the concert a grand success. DR. BUSHELJ. ADDRESSED METOKAS. "Find out what is paramount, and then do that, get a clear conception and larger vision of Christ the Savior of the world, see him as a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, born in a manger, watch him through his career and then see him hanging on the cross and later at the Ascension, and you will have the proper conception of the Metoka and Galedea classes that are being organized for a powerful and elevating influence in the Baptist churches throughout the jurisdiction of the National Baptist Convention," declared the Rev. Dr. Bushell in one of the most eloquent addresses that has been heard in Nashville for a long time. This address was delivered to a combined meeting of the Meotakas and Galedea at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church at four o'clock last Sunday afternoon. The class which invited the speaker to make this address is the largest in the city and was the first to be organized in the United States, having received the National Metoka Charter No. 1 issued at Meridian, Miss., two years ago.

Under the auspices of the George W. Hubbard Hospital Club, Dr. Josie E. Wells, president of that body, entertained one hundred and twenty guests with Mrs. Carrie Bryant Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga., as guest of honor in the reception parlors of that institution on Monday, the 16th inst., from 5 to 8 o'clock p. m. The function was an exceedingly brilliant one and was unique in that the guests were all ladies—the elite of the city, attired in most tasteful and gorgeous costumes. The plans of the evening were very elaborate—Dr. Wells having been assisted in the formulating and carrying out of these by Miss C. C. Hunt, headnurse of the hospital, and by the staff of internes. The Meharry orchestra, under the direction of Mr. W. P. Saunders, was in attendance and pealed forth delightful airs to the charm of the assembled guests. The cornet productions of Mr. J. Tefner were a most prominent part of the musical feature, and yielded a deal of pleasure. The refreshments served this very select company were of a very varied character and consisted of choicest dainties worthy of the tables of royalties. A very pleasing scene was witnessed when Miss Sophia Jackson presented the guest of honor a handsome bunch of flowers, but it seemed as though the function could not pass off without yielding pleasure higher, rarer and more intense, and this was afforded when the picture of Mrs. George W. Hubbard, beloved wife of the Dean of the Meharry College was unveiled by Dr. J. Walls in the presence of that august assembly. "Tis hard to adequately depict that scene, but the esteem in which Mrs. Hubbard is held, and the sentiments that were felt on the unveiling of that picture were emphasized when Mrs. T. H. Derrick remarked as follows: "Madam President, members of the George W. Hubbard Hospital Club and honored guests, upon me has fallen the very pleasant duty to present in my feeble way the likeness of one of the most worthy members, who will ever live in our memory. She makes her home a place of paradise for all who may enter its walls. She understands the nature of people; as a Christian she is always eager to get the truth of things, and willing to deceive herself. There is nothing more shrewd than intelligent honesty. She is intelligent without being arrogant, a genius without pride, and religious without being bigoted. She is an immense personality, firm, but not obstinate, obstinacy is egotism, firmness is herolism. She influences others without effort. Unconsciously, always saying what she thinks and what others think. She is a ministering angel in her home, studying by the side of her companion, cheering him along his pathway, and assisting him in all his duties. We cannot conclude that through all of these years of earnest toll, trying to help an unfortunate people through their struggles, that MRS. CARRIE BRYANT-JOHNSON all has been sunshine; nor has her pathway always been strewn with roses, but through days and nights of pain, through years of anxiety, with unswerving purpose, with malice none, with charity to all, with infinite patience, with clouded vision she hoped and toled. Stone after stone was laid until beautiful buildings adorn these grounds, and especially this great and grand structure, the George W. Hubbard Hospital, in which we are all interested. In all ages women have been the source of all that is pure, unselfish and heroic in spirit and life of man. It was for love that Antony lost Troy; it was for love that Jacob worked fourteen years for the beautiful Rachel; it was for love to our people that this good woman has given the bess of her life to service, and by so doing, has won the esteem and admiration of not only the members of the club, but all with whom she comes in contact. Helen conquered Troy, plunged all the nations of antiquity into war, and gave that earliest, as it is still the greatest epoch, which has come down through our time. Poetry and fiction are based upon woman's love and the movements of history are mainly due to the sentiments or ambitions she has inspired. Zenobia, Queen Elizabeth, Grace Darling and Ida Lewis claim a cold and distinct admiration in our hearts, but the dear Mrs. Anna Hubbard, unselfish and unheralded to succor and to save the most profound and holy emotions of our nature render her tribute and homage. Madam President, members of the George W. Hubbard Hospital Club and honored guests, I take great pleasure in presenting to you the likeness of a great and grand woman, Mrs. Anna Hubbard, which shall ever hang on the walls in the parlor of the George W. Hubbard Hospital Club. Though these walls may crumble and decay, likewise this picture, may the memory of this dear woman with that of her good husband, who has done so much for us, ever live in the hearts of generations to come. A perfect woman nobly planned To work, to comfort and command; And yet a spirit still and bright, With something of an angel light. BEAUTIFUL DINNER Mr. Eugene T. Page entertained with a handsomely appointed dinner on Sunday evening, December 15th, at 6 o'clock in his residence, Fourteenth avenue, North, to compliment Mrs. Carrie Bryant Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga. The table with its white lilms and decorations was a most pleasing picture. Its central ornament was a 'large pumpkin so cut as to serve a double purpose, that of a fruit bowl and a candelabra. In the center of the bowl was a large pine apple with the foliage end up; about this were placed lucious apples and oranges. A rope of grape vine encircled the outside of the upper part of the bowl, and from this vine hung massive bunches of malaga grapes. Between these bunches were fancy lighted candies projecting from the interior of the bowl, Cut glass, silver, lace pelces and other. Candles placed at the ends of the table gave the finishing touches of beauty. A most elaborate dinner of six courses was artistically served by Mrs. Page, mother of the host. The mints with their ornamentation of holly leaves and berries suggested the approaching Yuletide season. The place cards were very unique and pretty. One side bore the names of the guests and the other appropriate and amusing toasts, the reading of which afforded merriment. At the table were Mesmedes C. B. Johnson, Allen Boyd, A. G. Price, Misses M. K Hill, Blanche Atwood, Lillian and Frances Banks, Messrs. Allen Boyd, Ferdinand Bradford, Wm. D. Boger, Wesley D. Crutcher, Edfent T. Page. Mr. Page was assisted in entertaining his friends by his daughter, little Miss Lillian Hill. Miss Ida Morris Entertains Miss Ida Morris and mother, of 513 Fifteenth avenue, North, delightfully entertained a few of her friends Christmas day with a two o'clock dinner. The house was beautifully decorated for the occasion with holly, bells, etc., suitable for the season. A four-course menu was served, after which the guests returned to the sitting room for a social chat, each expressing an anxious desire for Christmas to come a little offener. Mrs. Morris displayed a rare ability in culinary art long to be remembered. Those invited to share Miss Morrison's hospitality were Mrs. Lewis. Misses Florence Florence, Malvina King, Westella Burns, Martha King, Ida Morris and Mrs. Morris. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1912 The Minnehaha Club. Miss Annie M.

As Supplied By the National Negro Business League. Samuel J. Davis has opened a first-class grocery at 24 Erlad street, New Rochelle, New York. Jackson, Mississippi has the function of having all its letter carriers colored men. Muskogee once had the same fame. Negro churches are supporting 200 home missionaries and 100 missionary station, and contributing $5,000 annually for foreign mission work. Another undertaking firm has now set up for business in Jacksonville, Florida, under the name of J. E. Hawkins & Company. They advertise themselves as being well equipped for up-to-date service. Burkes & Arbuckle Company is the name of the new Negro Music Publishing Company in Boston, Massachusetts. The firm is not only one of the kind in Boston but as far as is known is the only one of the sort in New England. The Scullin-Gallagher Steel Foundry, of St. Louis, Missouri, one of the largest steel plants in the world, employs several thousand colored men in its shops. Negroes are to be found working in all but three of its departments and lack of experience and training is the sole reason. The wages paid Negroes run from $1.75 to $6.00 per day. Not a few Negroes have learned the trade in this foundry and are now formen of their departments. Sam Powell, of Paw Creek, N. C., sold in the Charlotte market early in December 13 bales of cotton for which he received $',086. He disposed of 400 bushels of cotton seed for $600. Eight bales sold at 18 cents a pound and five bales at 17 cents a pound. He averaged a bale to the acre. Mr. Powell is in every way an up-to-date farmer. He subscribes for and reads several papers, both daily and farm journals. He raises each year his own food supplies and sells enough to pay his expenses. Dearfield, Colorado, is the scene of a Negro colony in the West. It is located west of the Missouri River and north of the Mason and Dixon Line, 70 miles northeast of Denver. Twenty-six colored families are settled on government land. Most of them have already been here long enough to own the soil they till. They have 6,000 acres under their control. In 1911 they had but two habitable houses. Now they have fourteen. In the same year there were but 200 acres fenced; now there are 3,000. In 1911 they had 150 acres broken and in cultivation, this year 500 acres are under cultivation. The land is especially adapted to the cultivation of beets. The settlement is crying for tradesmen. They are especially in need of blacksmiths, cobblers and saddle makers. Mr. Jesse Washington, a wholesale and retail grocer of Marlin, Texas, is an example of the up-to-date Negro business man. Mr. Washington was formerly a school teacher, but happening one day to read an article of Dr. Booker T. Washington's advising the Negroe to branch out, he quit the schoolroom and embarked in business. He now operates a wholesale and retail grocery store at Marlin. He carries regularly a $10,000 stock. When he began business in Marlin, there was only one Negro business in the town and this was falling because the proprietor was unable to buy so as to successfully compete with the white businesses of the town. He has been able to buy goods in large enough quantities to successfully meet competition. He has been helpful in building up colored businesses in Marlin. There are now thirteen prosperous Negro businesses in this small town. Mr. Washington is assisted in his business by two of his sons, one of whom is a graduate of the Bryant & Stratton Business College of Chicago, and the other has just graduated from an embalming school in that city. Mr. Washington's success in Marlin is an indication of what can be done in almost any small town in the South and is an inspiration to young colored men to engage in business. DR. ROMAN AT ST. PAUL.

The health of the people in a general way is good. Mr. Essex Bridgman, who has been sick, is convalescing. The little daughter of Mr. S. T. Robertson, Gallena, is very sick. We hope for her a speedy recovery. The weather is fine for corn gathering and hog killing in which work the most of the farmers are engaged, except a few who are turning land for next year's crop. Our schools are now all closed and we are now talking, lecturing and working in the interest of education for this section of the country. There are upward of a hundred children in this country and the school terms are from three to five months during the year. The school in Pikvilleis enrolled this fall term 68. The term ended November 29th and these 68 children must stay at home and pick up chips and play with each other until next July or August, and their books at that time will be a new thing to many of them. Three out of this valley in the city schools will have the advantage of those at home, and when their term ends and they come home in May or June they will consider they have no associates and the children at home will feel their inability to cope with them. Again to our business relations. Mr. William Northup is one of our great farmers and pedlers. He has an eye for business in a general way. Any kind of business might be safe in his hands. Mr. James Bridgeman is a farmer of some tact and is through gathering corn. He has several children, the most of them the right age to be in school. Mr. Isham Roddy, a farmer and jobber, is a man of fine qualities and is very anxious about the education of his children. Mr. Henry Panky, a farmer, has just fished gathering corn and has some fine hogs to kill, also several old enough to enter school. We hope the day is not far when the day star of a higher education will rise in Bledsoe County. This company has on deposit at the One-Cent Savings Bank sufficient funds to guarantee the return of all monies when orders can not be filled. Comp Nashvi mpany hville, Tenn. CEMETYE NOTES. Rev. H.

THE NASHVILLE INSTITUT FOR METROPOLITAN WORKERS On January 1st, the Nashville Institute of Christian Workers will be opened for school work. The Hoffman Hall property, just west of Fisk University campus, was purchased some months ago by the Interchurch College for the purpose of establishing this school. The property is being repaired and put in readiness for school work. The purpose of the Nashville Institute is to train men and women for religious and social leadership. It is strictly a professional school. The chief qualifications for admissions to the Institute are that a person be over eighteen years of age, be in good health, have a High School education or its equivalent, and be a member in good standing in some Protestant Church. There is a very large field for such an institution, both because of the need of trained leaders and because there are many young men and women who will find a very attractive field of usefulness open to them as trained Christian workers. Persons who desire to enroll as students should apply to the office of the American Interchurch College 601 Cedar street. --- --- AMONG THE CHURCHES. The services at Holy Trinity Church on Christmas day will be a celebration of the Holy Communion at 9 o'clock. A new Mass to the key of F will be sung for the first time.

The public is reminded that Holy Trinity Church belongs to the people of Nashville and are therefore asked to visit the church on Christmas day and all other services of the church. Arrangements are being made by the congregation to feed a certain number of the poor of Nashville during the Christmas holidays. DEATH OF MR. WM. H. BROWN. William H. Brown, for a number of years a resident of this city, held in the very highest esteem by both old and young, died at the home of his son, Rev. J. A. Brown, on Stanley street, Thursday morning, December 12th, after an illness of more than a year, having been confined to his bed just one month. While his death had been expected for some time, it came as a shock of those around him. Mr. Brown was born April 4, 1834, in the state of Maryland. He was a gallant soldier in the civil war. The following children survive: Rev. J. A. Brown, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church, of Watertown; Wm. Brown, James Brown, of Cincinnati; G. W. Brown, of Pittsburg; Mrs. Susie Weakley, of Columbus; Thomas H. Brown and Mrs. Grant Perkins, of this city. The funeral was held Sunday morning at the Fairfield Baptist Church. The following friends served as pall bearers: W. W. Southall, S. H. Hughes, Henry Hughes, Richard Overton, H. Willis and Nelson Moore. Interment took place at Mt. Ararat Cemetery. CARD OF THANKS.

H. Brown, Mrs. Susie Weakley and Mrs. Grant Perkins. THE FISK CALENDAR FOR 1913. The "Nashville Fisk Club" has issued a beautiful calendar for 1913 that would adorn any home. These calendars are being offered to the public for a small pitance to aid in the endowment of Fisk University. It is artistically arranged and contains short messages of the former presidents and members of the Faculty and the alumni. On the front page are the pictures of Presidents Cravath, Merrill and Gates. On the following pages are the pictures of members of the faculty and illustrations of the university. Each calendar is tied in the Gold and Blue colors of silk ribbon, and the twelve pages, each of which contains the days of the month and the short messages referred to above, are printed in the university colors, the Gold and Blue. This effort of the Nashville Club is meeting the hearty approval of the people. 和 Methods by Which Hog Cholera Spreads. 1. Running streams, such as rivers, creeks and branches spread cholera by washing the infection down stream from hog cholera outbreaks above, hence it is unsafe to endeavor to raise hogs where they have access to running water. 2. Public roads are disseminators of hog cholera. Hogs 'affected with cholera are liable at any time to be passing and repassing on these public highways, hence it is unsafe to allow hogs access to public roads. 3. Public stock yards. Every public stock yard in Tennessee and every other state is permanently infected With the virus of hog cholera hence no man should even think of removing hogs from a public stock yard for breeding or feeding purposes. Whenever a hog goes into one of these public stock yards the only safe place for him is direct to the abattoir for immediate slaughter. 4. The turkey buzzard. Aside from public stock yards, I consider the turkey buzzard directly responsible for most of the outbursts of hog cholera in Tennessee. If you dray the carcass of a horse or cow or that of any other animal which has died of pneumonia, colic or any other disease, out on the farm and allow this carcass to be consumed by buzzards, the same buzzards which fock there in droves to devour this carcass may have come directly from a hog cholera carcass 50 or even 100 miles away, bringing the infection to your farm and starting an outbreak of cholera among your own hogs. This emphasizes the importance of burning or burying all dead animals on the farm. Many of the Southern States are ford the buzzard legal protection. This accounts in part for their great numbers. At one time the buzzard was protected by law in Tennessee. At that time any one killing a buzzard was liable to arrest and fine. Of course when that law was passed no one had any idea that the buzzard was such a spreader of disease. Some people are under the erro-rous impression that the buzzard at this time has legal protection in Tennessee. For their benefit I will say that the law protecting the buzzard was repealed in 1903. Since that date the buzzard has had no legal protection in this State. Any person can kill a buzzard without violating any State law. Since this is a fact, every good citizen should do his part towards exterminating the buzzard, as it is a menace to the live stock raising industry in Tennessee, on account of being a spreader of hog cholera and many other contagious infectious diseases. If all persons would make it a rule to bury all animals which die on their farm, then there would be no inducement offered the buzzard to visit their premises. Besides being an attraction to buzzards, the stench from foetid carcasses of large animals constitute a public nuisance, in any community where they are allowed to decompose on the surface of the ground. Some effort should be made to induce the incoming General Assembly to pass a law compelling owners to either burn or bury all carcasses of animals which die upon their premises. Such a law at this time is necessary from a human as well as an animal health viewpoint. Every farmer in Tennessee should acquaint himself with the State Regulations relative to Hog Cholera which are as follows: "Section 30. That all public stock yards in the State are herby placed in quarantine—as regards to the handling of swine—and all persons, firms and corporations are prohibited from removing swine therefrom for any purpose other than for immediate slaughter. "Section 31. Hogs infected with or exposed to Hog Cholera shall not run at large or be driven in ranges, commons or public roads; such hogs must be confined in strict quarantine. Carcasses of hogs that have died of cholera must be sent to a rendering tank, or must be deeply buried or completely burned." REV. N. H. PIUS, D. D. ADDRESS FS Y. M. C. A Filled to overflowing with advice that was wholesome and practical to young men was the address of Rev. N. H. Plus, D. D., Superintendent of the Teacher-Training Department of the National Baptist Publishing Board under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. at the Majestic Theatre Sunday, December 15. The Sunday afternoon meetings of the Y. M. C. A. are drawing large crowds through the personal efforts of Mr. Sanders, the genial Secretary, and the President, Mr. H. L. Keith. Some of the most prominent men of Nashville were present at the meeting Sunday afternoon. SERMON FOR YOUNG WOMEN. Following the gigantic effort put forth last Sunday to get the men in church to listen to a special sermon will be a double effort next Sunday to have all women, as near as possible, go to osme church, where every pastor is requested by the Executive Committee of the Metoka and Galedale classes to preach a special sermon. Women will not be tagged as were the men last Sunday, and flowers are perhaps to be used instead. The word "Galaed," which is the name of the organized Sunday-school class for young women, according to the Greek translation is "The heap of Witness," their motto being "For Christ and Young Women." It is expected that most of the pastors will take for their texts Gen. 31:44: "Come thou, let us make a covenant, I and Thou, and let it be for a witness between me and thee." The organization of classes throughout the state is calculated to lend more enthusiasm to the women's sermon Sunday at 11 o'clock. TUSKEGEE NEGRO CONFERENCE. Invitations have been issued announcing the twenty-second annual session of the Tuskegee Annual Conference which will be held at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, January 22, 1913. This conference is a mass meeting of the Negro people of Alabama and adjoining states. It brings together representatives of the masses of the people, especially the farmers and merchants and also the teachers and leaders from all parts of the South. The purpose of the conference is more to inspire greater endeavor than an attempt to instruct along specific lines. The first day is taken up for the most part by talks and experiences of individuals giving their views of the actual conditions of what the people as individuals and through organizations are doing to improve their condition. The second day is given over to what is called the work of the conference, where teachers and others are engaged in a definite form of work, telling their experiences and accomplishments. This Conference began 22 years ago in a meeting of farmers, ministers and teachers from the surrounding country. Since that time it has extended its influence until its attendants come from most of the Southern states and some from the extreme North, East and West. The record of its work is in thousands of individual lives, which it has inspired to brush up a new ambition in the struggle for better things. RETAIL MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION FORMED Tuesday night at the rooms of the Board of Trade in the People's Savings Bank Building a number of retail merchants met and formed a merchants association. In the temporary organization Mr. I. L. Moore was elected president and Mr. D. W. Berry elected secretary. Mr. A. S. Rucker was elected president of the permanent organization Mr. M. Keele, vice president; Mr. F. Stockell, secretary; D. D. Venderable, treasurer. Executive Committee is composed of J. Frank Battle, chairman; H. Jackson, T. H. Rucker, J. W. Childress and B. Johnson, Mr. D. W. Crutcher, T. Clay Moore and W. D. Rucker were appointed a committee to draft by laws and constitutions. Mr. A. S. Rucker, the president of the association, has long been of the opinion that the retail merchants needed an organization of the kind that has just been formed. In speaking to a Globe representative on the subject he said there are many ways in which the retail merchants can help each toher if they are in position to understand each other. Through this organization the retail merchants hope for a better day of prosperity. QUARTERLY CONFERENCE AT BETHEL1 M. F. CHURCH BETHEL 'A. M. E. CHURCH. The first quarterly conference of the new conference year was held on the second Sunday ending with the regular routine work on Monday night. Presiding Elder Gardner preached an interesting and instructive sermons on Sunday and much interest was shown by the attendance and the contributions. Six weeks have elapsed since the holding of the last quarter, and the various boards of the church deserve commendation for having raised in that time over $212. This church has taken on wonderful activity since the coming of Rev. W. H. Porter and bids fair to go still further up the ladder of success. The presiding elder seems much pleased with the wonderful new life manifested by the membership of this church. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1912 "THE SMART SET" TO BE HERE ...ON THE 24TH and 25TH PRE- SENTING "THE DARKTOWN POLITICIAN." As has already been announced in these columns for the past two weeks, the foremost of all organizations of its kind, "The Smart Set," acknowledged to be the best up-to-date musical comedy attraction of this and seasons past, is coming back to Nashville, being booked for the Majestic Theater on Tuesday and Wednesday, the 24th and 25th of this month. NOTES INDICATING NEGRO PROGRESS. As Furnished by the National Business League. A new printing plant has been opened in Toledo, Ohio, by Mess B. Harry Lasher, W. H. Harrison a Howard Kirk. The Philadelphia Tribune celebrated its 28th anniversary by purchasing an $8,000 building into which it is shortly to move. As has been said on numerous previous occasions, this organization is too well known to necessitate extended comment, and hence needs no introduction here. This famous musical comedy company is coming this season headed by that same irresistible comedian, Salem Tutt Whitney, acknowledged to be without a peer; and the new production entitled "The Darktown Politician," a scribbling musical comedy in three acts, written by Mr. Whitney himself, with music by Trevor L. Corwell, is one of the real theatrical events of the season. The plot throughout is logical and in the leading role Mr. Whitney is given more opportunity to display his talent than in any previous seasons. The production is most elaborate in scenic equipment and the costumes are wonderful creations, while the supporting company of forty of the best colored performers known will be seen in singing and dancing numbers, plantation pastimes, drills and novelties, interspersed with twenty-five musical song hits, the famous male and female octet, and thirty Dixie lads and Bronzed beauties, not to say anything about the well-known Homer Tutt, the Bronzed appearance, and Blanch Thompson, a winsep pirma-donna, both of whom ill important parts in a most capable manner. Already the unusual demand for seats indicates an overcrowded house to greet this attraction at the Majestic Theater on the 24th and 25th, and the theater-goers generally are looking forward to a rare treat, most especially from the standpoint of their opportunity to witness this world-famous attraction in one of their own theaters where they can go and enjoy themselves to their heart's desire without having to undergo, in the least, any humiliations or discriminating disadvantages. TWO MORE CLASSES. With the co-operation of the entire membership of the Sunday-school of the North Sixth Street Baptist Church there was erected in the Sunday-school Sunday morning a Metoka and Galeda class. Prominent among those in the erection of the classes and who took part as a member were Rev. T. J. Tunstall, pastor, and Mr. R. C. Patton, the superintendent. The erection was conducted by Rev H. A. Boyd, the Congress Secretary, and Rev J. B. Ridley, National Vice President for Tennessee. The class officers are as follows: Galeda class: president, Mrs. Laura Baker; secretary, Miss Hattie Hadley; Metoka Class: president, Mr. B. W. Stewart; secretary, Mr. Wm. Offutt. Rev. Tunstall stated that he felt sure that the new classes would help the Sunday-school work.

A new printing plant has been opened in Toledo, Ohio, by Messra. B. Harry Lasher, W. H. Harrison and Howard Kirk. The Philadelphia Tribune celebrated its 28th anniversary by purchasing an $8,000 building into which it is shortly to move. The colored people of Brooklyn, N. Y., are to have an up-to-date restaurant. Edgar M. Miller and Isalah Walker are the proprietors. Fred M. Johnson, one of San Juan Hill heroes, has invented a belt feed rifle that will fire 300 shots in succession, at the rate of 20 shots a second. Allensworth, California, a Negro colony, is completing a new grammar school, "One of the best colony schools in the state," the neighboring papers say. --- In a recent ten days' campaign the Negroes of Baltimore, Maryland, pledged $31,000 towards a Young Men's Christian Association building. This is another one of the cities to cover the $25,000 offered by Mr. Julius Rosenwald, the Chicago philanthropist. * * * In Wichita, Kansas, Mr. Fox runs a laundry that requires five delivery wagons and one automobile. During the past year he has installed four thousand dollars worth of improved laundry equipment. *** The Negroes of Guthrie, Oklahoma, support a wide-awake library. It was established by Negro club women in 1908. In a city of fewer than 2,500 Negroes, this library has had 2,200 visits in one month; has loaned 750 books in the same length of time, and has added to its shelves 765 volumes. The report of the third quarter is as follows: Registered visits, 2,000; books loaned, 1,000; books added, 265; members to date, 800. Since the opening in 1908: Registered visits, 27,056; books loaned, 10,810; books donated, more than 2,000. The Library maintains a Young Men's Christian Association, a children's story hour club and a lecture course on domestic science and home making for our women. There is no such institution in the State doing so much for race uplift. Mrs. J. C. Horton is the librarian. An investigation in Kansas City, Kansas, reveals some interesting facts about the Negroes of that city. It has been found that out of a Negro population of 23,566, eight hundred are property owners. The Negro property was assessed at $1,400,000. Fifty Negroes owned property valued at $10,000; one hundred Negroes between $5,000 and $10,000; two hundred between $1,000 and $5,000; and the four hundred and fifty between $500 and $1,000. The figures go to show that the Negro of Kansas City is worth $28.01 more than the average Negro of the United States. A canvass among 8,000 employed Negroes in Kansas City between the ages of 14 and 60 gives this result: barbers, 240, dentists 4, doctors 23, janitors 350, laborers 5,000, lawyers 6, police service 8, postal service 20, barber shop porters 375, hotel porters 140, saloon porters 600, independent proprietors 90, pool hall owners 75, preachers 25, pulman service 140, railway service 250, teachers 30, teamsters 210, waiters 510.
