BURGLARS IN NASHVILLE
OPERATING BOLDLY IN ALL PART OF THE CITY.
Dr. Boyd Loses New Overcoat. Drygoods Stores Robbed. Safes Blown Open. And Many Other Depredations Committed. A Wave of Theft Followed the Holidays to City.
Coming with the advent of the Christmas was a gang of burglaries and safe-blowers that have terrorized Nashville for several days. Their actions have not been confined to special lines or sections of the From safe-blowing to pilfering lies from private residences their actions have baffled the police detective force, and until yet not single crook has been apprehended. R. R. H. Boyd, Manager of the national Baptist Publishing House, was relieved of his new overcoat during the crusade. At first he thought some one had carried it away through mistake and that it would be returned soon, but after waiting several days he was convinced that he was mistaken. The coat was taken from the main office. It is not known what hour the theft was committed, and it was a very smooth piece of business, as someone is all ways on watch.
Several of the uptown stores have been robbed and one safe blown open but to the surprise of the robbers the safe was empty. The clothing stores were entered and clothing and wearing apparel to the amount of nearly one hundred dollars were taken. The police and detectives are keeping a vigilant watch and unless the burglar's skip town it is expected they will be run down soon.

OLD SOLDIERS CELEBRATE FIF
TENTH ANNIVERSARY
One of the most inspiring entertainments celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Emancipation was that held by the old soldier at the Mt. Nebo Baptist Church. These veterans, who have smelt the powder of many battles and who are now stowing towed the grave, were as spry on this occasion as sixteen-year-old boys. The program carried out at this meeting was speaking, music and papers on subjects pertaining to the war and the memories of that great War.
connect.
At night a supper was tendered the old soldiers at the church and the occasion was an enjoyable one. There was no happier crowd to be found in Nashville than those who settled at the Mt. Nebo Baptist Church. Old veterans were fired with a zeal that can only come to the soldier who has been in real battle. When each speaker would tell of some event that part of them had witnessed the old battle-scared heroes would rise to their feet and give the war whoop as they did in the sixties. The meeting was highly enjoyed by all and especially by the old soldiers.

Special to the Globe:
Special to the GSA
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 1—To an assemblage of several thousand people here today in the city auditorium Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, of Nashville, Tenn., delivered the Emancipation oration. It was the fifth anniversary of the liberation of slaves and Atlanta was putting forward her best.

The Fiftieth Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation Fittingly Celebrated in Nashville January 1st.
DR. FULLER SPEAKS TO AN OVERFLOW HOUSE ON "OUR NATIONAL CONFESSION OF FAITH.
Mt. Olive Baptist Church was the scene Wednesday night of an Emancipation celebration that will go down in history. It was a fitting tribute to the fiftieth anniversary of the liberation of the slaves. Seats were at a premium. It was indeed a golden jubilee celebration. The special committee who had charge of the arrangements had made every possible preparation for the occasion. The detail of their work appeared complete. The musical program was in charge of Drs. N. H. Plus and J. D. Bushell. From 7:30 to 8:00 the North Nashville Band played popular airs in front of the church, winding up with a march, when the distinguished speaker was escorted to the platform by the committee in charge. Seated on the platfrom were Rev. T. O. Fuler, D. D., of Memphis; Revs. A. O. Kenney, J. D. Bushell, C. H. Clark, W. S. Ellington, Preston Taylor, William Haynes and T. L. Ballon. Promptly at the hour stated the choir of the First Baptist Church, of East Nashville, under the direction of Rev. and Mrs. Bushell, rendered one of their sweetest melodies, after which the band played "My Country 'Tis of Thee." The choir rendered another selection and the Emancipation Proclamation was read by Miss Vlok Allen.
REV. T. O. FULLER, D. D.
The master of ceremonies then introduced Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D. the pastor of the church, who made some very appropriate remarks and in turn introduced the speaker of the evening, Rev. T. O. Fuller, D. D. exmember of the Senate of the State of North Carolina, at present pastor of the First Baptist Church and President of Howe College, Memphis, Teen. There was a big demonstration when the speaker arose to greet the vast audience that completely filled the large church auditorium Dr. Fuller spoke from the subject;
OUR NATION'S CONFESSION OF FAITH.
In appearing before you in response to your invitation to address the citizens of proud and historic Nashville, I bear the greetings of many thousands in the western division of our great state, who nestle in the sheevous arms of the father of waters, the Mississippi, famous since its discovery by Ferdinand D Soto. I congratulate you, the honored citizens of our capital city, which was settled in 1780, chartered in 1806 and made the permanent seat of our state government in 1843 upon the golden coronet of fame that rests upon the brow of this lovely municipality. Nature has blessed Nashville with a lavish hand. The lofty hills have lifted you to a healthy altitude, while the rippling waters of the Cumberland hurry away with the elements that would contaminate the air. Nashville occupies a foremost place among the manufacturing centres of the country, and is regarded as the most important educational center of the South. Near here was fought the historic battle of Nashville in 1864, when Gen. Hood, of the Confeedrary, surrounded Gen. Thomas, who leading the Union forces rounted and drove away the attacking Confederates who left 5,000 of their soldiers dead upon the field. It is near Nashville, where the remains of the imminent Andrew Jackson sleep in silent repose and who looks down upon us tonight from sublimer heights, and whose memory is a gilded dream in the annals of American life.
Nashville is indeed a star of the first magnitude. By the printed page her influence has been felt by the nations

The ringing of bells and blowing of whistles announced to the world at midnight Tuesday that the old year was passing out and the new year was rushing in.

Roll down their golden sands. But we are assembled on this occasion to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the freedom of our race. Lured from their native land, the cradle of civilization, a land of matchless splendor and charming natural grandeur, by the wily Dutch traders who sold them into the servitude of northern and southern speculators, they toiled and bled and suffered until the awakened conscience of American manhood produced an Abraham Lincoln, whose unsullied patriotism and incomparable devotion to the cause of universal freedom not only crystalized the sentiment of his countrymen for the favorable reception of his famous Emancipation Proclamation, but he fired the hearts of a Sherman and a Grant, who snatched the incubus of slavery from our national escutcheon and wrote in living letters of blood and fire the freedom of four million slaves. Loyal and true to the ideals fixed by the founders and framers of this republic, it gives me pleasure to announce for your consideration "Our Nation's Confession of Faith." By the Confession of Faith we mean the basic ideals and principles that made possible the organic life of our nation. That high conception of civil and political character that gave birth to our grand republic. It is the

happy dream of soul liberty translated into civil liberty that found expression in the speech of Burke before the English Parliament, where, discussing the struggles of the American colonies for freedom and independence, said he: "I pardon something to the spirit of liberty. The American colonists left us when the fires of freedom were burning fiercest in the hearts of our English people. It was the spirit of liberty that made America possible and I would not destroy that spirit." It was that spirit of liberty, that yearning desire for independence that gave to the world (Continued on Pace 4.)
BIBLE WILL BE READ IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF THIS CITY.
Extracts from the Bible will be read each morning in the public schools of Nashville.
This was definitely decided by the City Board of Education last night when every member advocated continuance of the time-honored custom. "We find there is nothing objectionable to any creed in the reading of the Holy Book in public schools and therefore recommend that the custom be allowed to stand as outlined by a former board." was the message presented before the ooard by a special committee that has been considering the question of abolishment of th readings from the Bible each morning at beginning of the school day. This recommendation was signed by every member of the board.
Gary, Ind., Dec. 20—William H.

BISHOP TYREE DELIVERS PRINCIPAL ADDRESS AT EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION AT FISK UNIVERSITY.
Master of Ceremonies, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The orator of the day at the Emancipation celebration at Fisk University was Bishop Evans Tyree, of the African Methodist Church. Bishop Tyree was at his best on the occasion and in his plain and philosophical way delivered an address that was touching and inspiring. He said in part:
I assure you I heartily appreciate the honor accorded me by you in that you have invited me to be present to say a word to you to-day. Mr. Alexander asked me what my subject was. Well, I have no subject, and yet, I am going to say. We ought to all feel that we are having an Emancipation Jubilee. In the Bible, if we read the Old Testament, I think, Leviticus the 25th chapter, 10th and 11th verses, we will find something said concerning the Jubilee of the people of that date, referring to the Jewish people, who, under certain rules, had their time divided into Sabbatic years, and the fiftieth year was called the year of Jubilee. So we have had a school of Sabbatic years, figuratively speaking; so we come to the fiftieth anniversary; we come to the Emancipation Jubilee of all of our people.
It is a privilege to live to-day. One who lived before the days of Emanclipation and can in any measure compare those days with the days of

the present almost imagines himself to live in another world. I had the misfortune. I suppose, to be born a slave in 1853. I came along in time to be emancipated with those people who were emancipated in 1863; but I did not get away from our people so early; not until 1865. I can remember well when my dear old mother, who now lives, took me by the hand one hot, burning September afternoon to leave the plantation where we belonged as slaves. We started we knew not whither, we were simply going. The tidings had come to us in the backwoods that we were free. My mother, like all other people, desired to be free and desired to see her child free. With possibly as much belongings as ten dollars would cover she started with me. We did not have any name. We did not have any home; we did not have any money; we did not have any sense. We simply started. We heard we were free and we started. I can remember well when we moved out by premission of the gentle man owned a little worn-out farm and entered into an old waste-out farm that had been occupied by stock—it was a sheep house, and how we went into that old waste-house and began to try to cleanse it and make it habitable. I remember that baker and possibly one old skillet for our cooking utensils and the absence of something to cook in them; and there was no meal in the barrel. It was a time in which we live like this, so far as the rigid prices of table food is concerned. I was mother's only hope for bread, and so instead of having the opportunity to turn toward the school, if we had known any such a thing existed, for we did not. I had to turn to the plow handle and stick to the plow, and weld the axe and swing the maw, and do any and every kind of mental service that my mother might have bread and that I also might share with her in those scanty meals.

Sumptuous in its proportions, entertaining in its every feature and by far the most largely attended of all, was the Sixteenth Annual Dinner given to the Publishing Board employees by Rev. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, on Wednesday, New Year's day. This is one of the annual occasions looked forward to by every employees regardless of what department they belong to, it has never grown old. The dinner was under the supervision of Mr. L. Landers and his force of volunteers who had tastily decorated the tables for the occasion. There were no assigned places. Pressman and office clerk, compositor and editor, devil and secretary, cabinetworker and stenographer, all took places where they could find them, but there were places for all, just as there were plates for all. It was a day for slaying fowl, eating roast pig and the decicacies of the season. For a time all were too busy to pay attention to the toastmaster, and not until their somewhat fierce appetites were appeased could the program be carried out. Calls were made for Dr. William Beckham, the Field Secretary, who is known in Nashville as the Globe Troter for he National Baptist Convention, and the talking machine for the denomination "What think ye?" was the subject
The next speaker called was the Rev. J. C. Fields, pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church. He spoke of the far-reaching effect such generosity would have upon the common people.
Following him came Rev. T. O. Fuller, D. D., President of Howe College, Memphis, who gave an excellent talk on the work of the Negro Baptists as seen from a distance and as viewed by other people. He was given a big ovation by the whole force.
Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., Chairman of the Publishing Board; Mr. C. N. Langston, the Assistant Cashier of the One Cent Savings Bank; Rev. W. S. Ellington, D. D., Editorial Secretary of the Publishing Board, and Prof. J. D. Cresshaw, Editor of the Union-Review, were the other speakers of the afternoon. For more than two and a half hours there was feasting and talking. In fact, New Year's Day will long be remembered at the Publishing Board as a day of good cheer.
On behalf of the employees, Prof. Crenshaw in a most eloquent address presented Dr. Boyd, whom he enlarged as founder, genius and Baptist Pilot in the business world, and presented two beautiful tokens.
Dr. Boyd made a happy response during which time he made it plain that within it all his success or that of the Publishing Board or House was due first to the workmen and those employed, and second, to the members of the Board, who, regardless of where they were, had proven true as well as responsive and deeply sympathetic to the cause at all times. He paid a very high compliment to the individual members of the entire personnel of the Publishing Board, saying, "No concern, religious or what not, had a more worthy representation, as there was one member from every State or Territorial Convention in the Union on the Board.
Dr. Boyd thanked the donors for the token, but said that to his wife, Mrs. Harriet Albertine Boyd—"This little black woman who has stood by by me all these years and who is directly responsible for whatever success I've made, as she washed and ironed and helped me raise my children, an dthen after the ywere out of the way, helped to send me to school after I was over forty years old, and was due the thanks for this New Year dinner. "Twas her wish and 'tis our pleasure."5
The Publishing House yell was again made, led by J. D. Cranshaw and J. H. Kelly; the National Baptist Publishing Board Brass Band played "Princes, Awake," from the National Anthem Series, and all began to get their hats and wraps, as one more New Year dinner had dis appeared.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1913.
The New Year.
With the incoming of the New Year doubtless the thought has come to many that they would put forth an effort to do more for humanity than they have ever done before. The common expression "turn over a new leaf," is true whether we intend it to be or not; for with the passing out of each year the accomplishments we have achieved pass out with it and the opportunities to do other things present themselves with the advent of the New Year.
In this age of progress all thinking people are endeavoring to put themselves in an attitude to do more good each day and to adjust themselves to the demands of the age. The leading people of this nation, and in fact all the world, are centering, more and more, their energy on real service. No longer the man of affairs or of exceptional attainments considers that he must be served, but the Scriptural teaching that the truly great are those who serve their fellowmen is coming into a fuller realization.
The following sentences sent forth as a New Year's greeting by a leading publisher we consider an able exposition of what we should endeavor to do in 1913.
"To be fit for your day's work and to lend a hand besides. To have strength for your own burden and some for the other fellow's too. To bear you own sorrows courageously and to share those of your brotherman. To know when to lift and when to lean—where to laugh and where to mourn—how to work and how to play—to ever watch and often pray. To have a heart that loves and is beloved—hands that give as well as take and feet that go on little journeys to the places of the world's great need."
Fifty Years of Freedom.
The first day of this month the Negroes of this country celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation. All over this country they assembled and in various ways commemorated this event.
Fifty years ago four million people, ignorant, superstitious and enslaved. To-day over ten million Negroes with a record along educational lines unparalleled in the history of the world and a air reputation in the matter of commercial activity are the assets presented to the world. It is not necessary to recount here in detail the progress made by the race, but suffice it to say, that at the end of these fifty years we stand face to face with new problems and new opportunities—with our educational progress is by far in advance of our commercial progress.
The white man has been tolerant toward the black man; and truly he had a right to be, and has a right to continue to be so, but with all of this, as we begin on the last half of the first century of our freedom we should, as a race, set about to take steps toward a more active and permanent effort in commercial pursuits. We should put aside all silliness and get down to actual facts. We must realize that we are now being called upon to perform our part as other men. We should not forget, however, that our task will be harder than other's because of the peculiar circumstances surrounding us, and for that reason we will be compelled to make greater sacrifices and to struggle against more odds than any other people in this country. But struggling develops strength and therein is our home. By an eternal struggle we have come thus far, but the end is not yet, and in fact, our struggle
has just begun. May we start the next half of the century, not in a rush, but with a steady, tread a determination to reach the top.
"The Negro in Medicine" is the title of a booklet issued by Dr. J. A. bama. It is very creditable work, and Dr. Kenney is to be commended for contributing his part in showing the world what the Negro has accomplished as a physician.
Nashville is desirably represented by Drs. Stewart, Roman and Townsend and also by Meharry Medical College. The book is well printed and will be a credit to any home.
A prominent gentlemen in the city said recently that the question propounded to girls nowadays by the young men is: "Have you got a job? do you think you can keep it" It is that if the question is answered in the affirmative a lifetime contract is entered into at once.

FRED MOORE TO GET LIBERIAN
MINISTERSHIP.
Washington, December 26—Accord-to a current report, Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, is being urged by his friends for the post of American Minister to Liberia, which was made vacant by the death of Dr. W. D. Crum. Mr. Moore spent Saturday and Sunday here as the guest of his sister, and the news began to circulate that he was being urged by his friends for the post. It is believed here that the President will send his name to the Senate next week.
Friends of Mr. Moore point out the fact that his paper was the leading supporter of President Taft in both of his campaigns, and that the honor of being named as minister to Liberia would only be a slight appreciation of his work for the G. O. P.
Mr. Moore is a native of Virginia but spent his early life and obtained his education here. He moved to New York City years ago, and is one of the best known men in the Metropolis. He was organizer of the National Negro Business League for a few years, and has been publisher of the Age for the past six or seven years. Several years ago Liberia conferred upon him the decoration of the Order of African Redemption.

My Negro doll is a year old Christmas morning and she is just as sweet and good as she was a year ago. My mama is from your city and I hope some day to meet these little girls. Papa said he is going to send us to visit Nashville. I am a little girl 11 years old and I take great interest in reading the Globe.
Yours truly,

BISHOP EVANS TYREE DELIVERS
PRINCIPAL ADDRESS.
(Continued from Page 1.)
a covering of boards three or four
feet in length, that were placed so
we could see the stars at night without
having to go out doors to see
them, and a fireplace six feet in
length, nothing to put on it scarecly,
we began freedom.
There has been a marked change
from that year until this year with
my people. For we only stood as
an example of a race more than four
million strong. We were not alone;
we had plenty of company. Well,
they were not in that house with us;
they were not in that old field where
we were, they were scattered over
the country broadcast.
In the great mind of God, in the great Providence of Him who loved and loves us still, many friends at the North had their hearts turned this way, and because of the condition of the people so poorly turned loose on the world, ignorant, helpless, homeless, friendless, bade goodbye to their homes, to their friends and came southward and began and left comfortable surroundings and came southward and began the mighty battle with us. It was not my good fortune to meet them when they came; it was not even my good fortune to hear that they had come, for I was back yonder behind the hill dealing with a mighty problem; a problem of shelter, a problem of clothing and food. I did not know how long schools had been established among us. I say I don't know how long it was before I even heard of it, much less to have the opportunity to go to it. But now, with a fairly good memory, and covering the period of those years—fifty of them—do you know that my heart burns as I stand here this morning and look into this presence, and have any kind of a recognition whatever as a speaker or a citizen among you. It was a rugged way and I am glad I came over it, but I don't want to go over it any more—once is enough. Once a gentleman said to me that he would insult a man if he called him colored. I said "Why?" He said. "Because you are not colored, you are Negroes." I said that is so, but I have been in the world so long and have been called "nigger all these years, and to be called coed gives me a little rest. I am very glad for them to call me colored so I can rest a little.
Now having had this rest all these years we come to this good Jubilee morning, and every heart should be jubilant, and every tongue should lisp the praises of almighty God for what He did through President Lincoln and his allies; for he had around him mighty forces at work; both on their knees, on the rostrum, on the battlefield and on paper. Among them I like to think of Frederick Douglass that old silver-tongued orator; that man who was matchless, whose heart ran full of desires for
freedom. He prayed for it, and he made personal efforts for it. I wish to say here that nothing comes to us without some personal effort. Fred Douglass said he never got what he desired until he prayed with his lips. That he had asked the Lord for freedom—for the day when he could see his people, like other people, enjoy the boon of liberty—But he felt that he must do something himself to get it. So he put his feet in the road and started. On two continents, when the agitation in this country was going on from side to side, from Legislature to Congress, and from Congress back to the Legislatures, Fred Douglass, along with William Loyd Garrison, Henry Ward Beecher and Harlet Beecher Stowe, and that class of persons who put their lives on the altar for the redemption of the race Fred Douglass, in America, across the sea, stood flat-footed and advocated liberty until two continents heard him, and two continents cheered him. Liberty finally came.
The thought of emancipation possibly was not so strong on the mind of Abraham Lincoln as the saving of the Union, which, of course, was perfectly natural, the whole country having its eyes centered upon him, and the breaking of the Union into pieces would have been the breaking of a heart nobler than which throbbed in a human breast. For, as he said, if I can save the Union by freeing slaves left as they are I will do it, or if I can save the Union by freeing the all of them I will do that, or if I can save the Union by freeing part of them and leaving a part in slavery I shall do that, for the preservation of the Union is paramount."
We know what followed; we know how it ended. Behind it all as a great power. History's pages record one death grapple in the darkness betwixt old systems of the world. Right on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne; but that scaffold sways the future and within the dim unknown stands God, within the shadow, keeping watch over his own. And when God was ready, whether Lincoln, the South or others were ready or not, when God was ready He said: "Let my people go," and ordered the hand of the great Lincoln to write, and that hand could not help but write, and the chains and jibes fell and the crushed people straightened up and began to rejoice over their freedom.
We have done a great many strange things since freedom. We have been charged with laziness; running to the cities etc. Now, let us see about it. Say a man has been bowed down in slavery for two hundred and fifty years, undergoing all sorts of hardships, all sorts of cruelty, worry, discontent and oppression; in that condition two hundred and fifty years, sold as chattel to whomsoever bought him. And them come along and turn that fellow loose. Don't you know he will not know what to do? We did not know what to do when emancipated, we thought freedom meant freedom indeed. Many of us were reared by artisticratic people. We drove their carriages, carried the umbrellas over them, when they inclined to have us do so, and did everything they asked us to do, and saw the aristocratic side of life, and decided when we got free we were going to be aristocrats too. We did not see the things that would come to defeat that thought and oppose it, we only thought of what we saw at the big house, and hence we did a great many things that were foolish. We had not learned that liberty proclaimed throughout the earth meant liberty to work. For after all liberty means to work. The man is not free that does not work; he is a prisoner. For every industrious man wants something to do, and the soul is caged until something is given to do. When we learned that, we learned that liberty meant work.
I had a friend some years ago who had a mammoth brain and a mammoth heart who had no education, had had no opportunity whatever to study, but there never throbbed in a human breast a nobler heart. Somebody was making sport of him about his freedom once and his getting a mule and forty acres of land. He was telling me about it and said he looked that man in the face and said to him: "Gin me my liberty, take desse chains off me and let my ankles loose and I will git the forty acres of lan' and the mule." And the old man said that with such force that I felt the tears running hot down my cheek.
The opportunity has come, but not all we want $\sigma$ deserve. What man, however, has all the opportunity he wants? Very few Negroes have the opportunity they deserve. This is a world in which we must struggle and wrestle until we conquer. I read somewhere not long ago that since the Emancipation Proclamation twenty-five hundred, I'd rather say twenty-five thousand, of our people have been destroyed here and there for the most frivolous and ridiculous things. Does it not seem that everyone who has the least strength ought to set his hands to work, his heart to work, his brain to work to help build up the race. In the midst of the strongest race, in the midst of the highest civilization that mankind has known we are called upon to work out our existence, and well may we say, with fear and trembling, we have done right well; we might have done much better, and may from this Jubilee mroning we strive to go for a higher plain.
Some people say it is much harder now than when we started. Well the hill is getting much steeper and there we greater resistance and it is not possible to evade that resistance. We must meet it, we must overcome it. In New York City in East River between Long Island and Manhattan Island used to be what was known as Hell's Gate. It was a dangerous place for boats ti pass. They were buried there, until it became a quesoften stranded there; weatha was tion as to whether they could use that stream at all, because of the un-
certainty of cargo and passengers going by safely. Somebody said: "Provide me with men, implements and whatever I ask for and I will open Hell's Gate. And so a contract was made, work started and, we are told, nine acres of rock was undermined in that dreadful gateway; forty thousand pounds of explosives were brought, mighty explosives, to that gateway, tons of dirt and rock were hauled away; thousands of men with strong arms and machinery honeycombing beneath that river until thousands and thousands of holes were drilled and charged with explosives. And when it was all lixed a certain hour orders were given for everybody to be in the house, and the engineer called his daughter and said 'when the hands that watch reaches twelve you touch that button, but don't touch it until I speak. And at the moment he said 'touch the button,' and an electric spark ran along one wire and diverged in a thousand directions and "Hell's Gate" was lifted.
was lifted and rocks and everything imaginable were torn up and scattered thereabout; and now their is no better part of East River to accommodate the thousands of boats boats passing through it than Hell's Gate. Young friends, we are going up the river, obstructions have met us, and ought to meet us, and we ought to discover a remedy and apply that remedy; we ought to go beneath, around and over and use every ingenuity that mind and muscle can honorably bring to bear, set them to work and clear the obstacles away and float this boat up the river until we come to its very source.
Fifty years from now, when these teachers of yours sleep, when this speaker will have been forrotten, when this university, I trust, will just begin to put on her beautiful garment for her morning' work. I hope around this compass, when the lark begins to sing her notes will be joined by all listening hearts, throbbing hearts and animated spirits, simply entering to do the grandest and greatest work an institution ever did for a race; that you will be stronger, and the next Jubilee' will bring a different state of affairs to what we see here to-day. And when I say that, I mean this: I am optimistic enough to believe that the time will come when the great wave of prejudice that sweeps the country to-day will take a lull and go to sleep; I do not feel that it will last forever. I believe the world is getting better. There is a condition now that we all would change if we could. When was there a time when there were not conditions that everyone would change? In the days when Christ walked this earth, the hearts of men burned against Him, and they never stopped until they nailed him to the Cross. But the people are to-day singing hosanas to Christ.
It should be our purpose to set about and never still our brain until we have turned out a mighty, object lesson that the world may see that there is something in us. Let the world see within us more than it gives us credit for having. We want to convince this world that we are inexhaustible, that there is always more to follow.

DR. FULLER SPEAKS. (Continued from Page 1.)
thee Declaration of Independence, from the beginning of which I take my subject, Our Nation's Confession Faith.
"When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the powers of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
We hold these truths to be self-evident. "That all men are created equal." That they are endowed by their Creator with certain unallenable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it." These declarations, in my opinion, are the articles that constitute our nation's confession of faith, a firm loyalty to which is essential to the life and perpetuity of our institution. A careful analysis will show that no sublimer truths nor more ennobling sentiments have ever followed the tracings of a mortal pen.
The Colonists professed a decent respect for the opinions of mankind, thereby laying a foundation for the comity of natives and the progressive development of international law. No man liveth to himself. No nation liveth to itself. And in the treatment of the great question, that effect the human race "opinion of mankind" must be respected. This sentiment cannot die as long as civilization lives and the powers of the world are alert in their scouting of the acts of the strong against the weak, whether it be Spanish against Cuban or white against blazek. Herein lies the thread
of hope for the weak and oppressed of every race of every land and of every clime. Says Channing: "The world is governed much more by opinion than by laws." Says Wendell Phillips: "With us law is nothing, unless close behind it stands a warm living public opinion." Says Lord Palmerston: "Opinions are stronger than armies. If they are founded in truth and justice they will in the end prevail against the bayonets of infantry, the fire of artillery and the charges of cavalry.
He that would win favor at the high court of the world's opinion should see to it that his cause is just, his hands are clean and his heart is right, and then press his claims with might and main until the clouds of oppression have left the skies and the horizon reddens with the flash of victory.
The fathers held in their first article of faith that it was reasonable and self-evident that all men are created equal—equal before the God of nations and entitled to the undisputed enjoyment of the bountiful blessings of an Allwise Creator; entitled to aspire to the freest and fullest development of his gifts and powers; entitled to receive the courtesy and consideration that he of right should bestow upon his fellowman. Human society is a divine institution. The gifts and powers are the benefactions of Him who is Omniscient and Omnipotent. Goodness and justice are his peculiar attributes. From his decrees there is no escape and from his decisions there is no appeal. Says Jefferson: "They are endowed by their Creator with certain unallenable rights." Here the hand of God is recognized in the endowment of natural gifts. In the arrangement for the happiness of man in the social system the Creator saw fit to endow man with certain rights, certain inalienable rights—that cannot be denied him, that cannot be transferred and preserve the harmony and stability of the social fabric. These rights are numerated as life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. These are man's natural rights and are not the gifts of civil government. They are inherent and governments are instituted to touchsafe and secure to each individual member of society these God given rights lest in the progress of civilization or the lack of it conditions might arise in which those less able to maintain their rights might suffer at the hands of others. Governments are God's agents for the preservation of man's natural rights and governments are man's agents, receiving from him such powers as man sees fit to yield for the making of civil law for the regulation of man's dealings with man in the affairs of the world. This is civilized society the most tangible evidence of civilization.
The fathers declared that man's right to life was God-given and inalienable. That liberty and pursuit of happiness were his by the same decree, and in the framing of the Constitution they were careful to provide that these rights should not be taken from him, except "as a punishment for crime," and then "by due process of law."
Life is the first gift that the individual is capable of receiving. "It is the Childhood of immortality," says one. "It is the active correspondence with things about us," says another, "the span of existence between the cradle and the grave shaped and influenced by the acts and conduct of itself and others. This is life.
It may be prescribed and proscribed by ignorance, by lethargy and by the despotism of prejudice. It is the province of civil government to see that ignorance is enlightened; that lethargy gives place to industry and progress, and that prejudice shall not fetter any individual soul in his efforts to mount up and reach his goal. Aside from the physical life there is the moral life, which shapes the conduct so as to preserve a place of honor in society; intellectual life which enables us to invent, to discover, to realize, to investigate, to know. By this we not only appreciate our own gifts and powers, thereby ablating us to utilize them, but our intellectual life establishes for us a happy relation with the rest of the world whether in literature, in science in religion, or in government. Life and abundant life was not only the dream of the fathers of the republic, but it was the leading thought that filled the heart of the lowly Nazarene. Said he: "I come that ye might have life and that ye might have it more abundantly."
Liberty was another cherished dream of those who rocked the cracle of this republic. Liberty of body, liberty of the mind and liberty of the soul. In other terms, civil and religious liberty, "Liberty" says Burke, "is not found in the abstract." "Liberty inheres in some sensible object; and every nation has formed to itself some favorite point which, by way of eminence, becomes the criterion of their happiness." It is in the enjoyment of life and the exercise of our freedom, both as a divine right and as governmental functions, that we as citizens of this American republic find our sincerest happiness. Says Bolingbroke: "Liberty is to the collective body what health is to the physical or individual body." "Personal liberty," says one, "is the right to act without interference within the limits of the law." The eloquent Danial Webster beautifully portrayed liberty when he said: "If the true spark of civil and religious liberty be kindled, it will burn. Human agency cannot extinguish it. Like the earth's central fire, it may be smothered for a time; the ocean may overwhelm it: mountains may press it down, but its inherent, unconquerable force will leave both the ocean and the land, and at some time or another, in some place or another the volcano will break out and send its flames to heaven." It was this spirit this power that gave us the freedom we celebrate at this hour. It is this freedom, this equality of privilege and opportunity, this right to pursue hapiness in every channel of civilization for which we shall contend now henceforth and forever. This spirit of liberty has been cherished in the bosom of our people for centuries.

We had if when the colonies struggled for independence from the British crown, and gave the blood of Crispus Attucks f to make indelible what Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence. This Confession of Faith has become our confession of faith. We believe in the equality of man. We believe that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are the inalienable rights of every American citizen. It is the faith that gave power and life to this republic. We hold that no new construction should be placed upon a single article of this faith to accommodate the prejudices of any race or the weakness and corruption of modern politics. We call upon legislators and patrons everywhere to stand by the declarations of the fathers. That they be true to the ideals of those who constructed the great ship of state. This immortal confession of faith should not be denied; should not be repudiated. The warning has been sounded. Jefferson says: "When any form of government becomes destructive of the liberty of the people, it is their right to alter or abolish it and institute a new government." Says Abraham Lincoln: "No government can long exist half slave and half free."
When freedom from her mountain height
height
Unfurled her standard to the air,
She tore the azure ribe of night,
And set the stars of glory there.
Freedom! Freedom!! the brightest
jewel in the crown of our civilization.
It was the love of freedom that gave
to America her Patrick Henry; to
England her Charlemagne; to France
her Napoleon; to Cuba her Maceo;
to San Domingo her Toussaint L'
Ouverture, and to the American Negro the matchless orator and superb
statesman. Frederick Douglass.
But say the new constructionists: "All men are created equal." They would intimate that the framers of the republic did not mean to include the Negro in the scope of the declaration. Is the Negro a man? Let us inquire what is a man and what is his mission? Says Shakespeare: "What a piece of work is man! How noble in reason! How infinite in faculties! In form and moving how express and admirable! In action how like an angel! In apprehension, how like a God!" Says Gladstone: "Man himself is the crowning glory of creation; the study of his nature the noblest study the world affords." "Man," says another, "is divinity wrapped in human flesh and perfecting a visible mastery of the creation." Governments, religion, property and books are nothing but the scaffolding to build men. Earth holds up to her master no fruit like the finished man." says Humboldt.

Estis was the lucky man to tie the knot. The bride was a resident of Jackson. The groom is a son of one of our oldest, highly respected families, Mrs Rebecca and Mr. W. M. Ward, Sir. Quite a grand dinner was served, and a number of kindred and friends were present Among those from Jackson were Mrs. Lena Williams, Mrs. Gussie Williams, Messrs. Tyson and Will Williams, and others. The many friends of both the bride and groom wish for them a long and happy life.

About 7 o'clock Christmas night Dr. Drank and family heard a number of shots in their front yard. They went to the front to discover the cause and found a large crowd of men and women who had formed a surprise party. Each one was shooting fireworks. The party, headed by Mrs. B. J. Franklin, included Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Lane, Mrs. Lillie Dorkins, Mrs. Jane Hall, Misses Mary Walker, Mary Patterson, Mattie Miles, Messrs. Willie Peterson, Colfax Humphrey, White and Martin. After the crowd finished shooting their fireworks Mr. Drank invited them to the parlor and served cake, wine and nuts to the guests. Every one seemed to enjoy himself. The surprise was pleasantly received by the doctor and family. Mrs. Carrie Sims visited Mrs. B. J. Franklin in the foreground Wednesday, and in the afternoon visited Dr. Drank, Mrs. Davis, Mrs. James, Mrs. Wilkes entertained with a two-o'clock dinner Friday.

He arose as usual Saturday morning and was chatting with his family who were seated around the fire, when he suddenly ceased talking, falling forward, and was gone before tender hands could comfortably place him on the bed. He leaves a wife and nine children. Interment at M. Olivet Cemetery the following Monday. Beulah, one of the younger daughters of Rev. Foster Bills, died Wednesday, the 25th, and was buried Thursday. Rev. Caswell, of Culleoka Circuit, officiated. Beulah was one of the children who had been ill since last spring, and whose death made the last of three children in eight months and the last of five in two years. Indeed, he has our greatest sympathy. Rev. Bills purchased the greater part of the Gordon farm and had moved only a few days prior to the death of his daughter. Miss Bessie Rose was at Columbia a few days ago. Mr. John Gant, of Marion. Ark., is expected January 1st. Mrs. Cornellus Moody and family of Lynville, visited Mrs. Ada Martin Sunday. Messrs.

WITH THE "FOURTH ESTATE."
Summary of Current Activities in the Afro-American Newspaper Field.
Compiled under the Direction of the National Negro Press Association.
6-point here.
A Negro daily is to be launched at Muskogee, Olka.
The notes of the National Negro Press Association are being carried in good form by a number of our leading race papers. Good! This is a field that our people know all too little about.
The suspension of The Advocate and the Mountain Leader at Charleston, W. Va., is a sharp blow to the race. The former was edited by J. C. Gilmer and the latter by T. G. Nutter. Both are men of high intellectual quality and large influence, and their papers were both creditable examples of modern journalism. Unfortunately, this leaves West Virginia's progressive capital without a single racial spokesman.
A midwinter conference of the National Negro Press Association is to be held shortly in either Washington or Philadelphia.
The comprehensive National Negro Newspaper Directory is to be issued in February, if Corresponding Secretary Henry Allen Boyd can get the remainder of the data from delinquent editors and managers, who have thus far failed to answer the list of questions asked by him. Those who have not yet sent in their slips should do so at once, addressing Mr. Boyd at 447 Fourth avenue, North, Nashville, Tenn. The Directory will be a valuable production, and every Negro manager and editor should co-operate, to the end that it may be as complete as human ingenuity can make such a volume. Mr. Boyd is giving the president the heartiest support and is doing a monumental work for the Association. He should be encourage. The officers of the Association are urged to send their photos and sketches to Mr. Boyd, that they may be included in the Directory.
Denial is made that Auditor Ralph W. Tyler is to join hands with W. Calvin Chase in the editorial management of the Washington Bee at the conclusion of the former's term in the federal service at Washington. It is understood that Mr. Tyler has been connected with the Bee for some considerable time as an editorial and departmental contributor. Chase and Tyler ought to make a strong combination, both having had ample experience in the journalistic arena.
No article in recent years has attracted more general attention or provoked a more profitable discussion than Dr. Booker T. Washington's offering on the Negro question in the November Century, pointing out in plain terms that the Negro is not getting a fair show in this country.
The Pittsburgh Courier is four years old. Messra. C. W. Posey. H. E. Rickmond and R. L. Vann, the active managers of the Courier, have demonstrated that a first-class Negro paper can live in the "Smoky City," and exert a helpful influence for the race it represents.
Attorney George W. Ellis, of Chicago, formerly secretary of the American Legation at Monrovia, Liberia, is a contributing editor on the Journal of Race Development, published in connection with Clark University, Worcester, Mass.
"Phil" Brown, who managed the publicity end of the Taft campaign for the Negro bureau, resumes his residence in Chicago, after spending Christmas at his home in Hopkinsonville, Ky. Mr. Brown is one of the most versatile newspaper writers in the country, regardless of race.
Real newspaper men are going slow in the use of "Prof." "Hon." "D. D." etc., and are "cutting out" the "Mrs. Bishop" and "Mrs. Dr." foolishness in speaking of the wives of men bearing the titles mentioned.
The long editorial has gone to the scrap-pile, except among a few opinion-moulders of the old school—tne antediluvian period. This is the day of the pointed paragraph.
The editor of the Washington Bee accuses the editor of t.e New York Age of being "ignorant."
J. Max Barber, the sometime editor of the Voice of the Negro, is now practicing dentistry in Philadelphia, having graduated in that calling from the University of Pennsylvania. He was married recently to Miss Hattie B Taylor, a prominent factor in the social life of the Quaker City.
Ohio claims to have furnished a bonafide successor to the late Paul Laurence Dunbar in the person of Elliott Blaine Henderson, a rising young versifier of Springfield. He has put out a very creditable volume of poems, comprising fifty pages. One critic says that Henderson writes in a rich Negro dialect, of which he, although northern-bred, seems to have grasped the real essence.
John Mitchell, Jr., editor of the Richmond Planet, and president of the Mechanics' Savings Bank, has been elected a member of the Royal Society of Arts of England. Mr. Mitchell is the only colored member of the Association of American Bankers.
President R. W. Thompson, of the N. N. P. A., extends thanks to the many journals that have honored him this year with complimentary copies. He is glad to get them as through them he is able to keep closely in touch with the progress the race and profession are making in every section of the country. His address is 908 S. street, northwest, Washington, D. C.
M. M. Lewey. the veteran editor of the Florida Sentinel,历 recently
and severely bruised his elbow. He is up and about again, and wielding his trenchant pen with his old-time ferror and effectiveness.
The Thanksgiving special edition of the Nashville Globe was a "dandy." The write-up of the National Negro Press Association by Henry Allen Boyd was especially fine and served to let the people know that this useful organization is wide awake and "onto its job."
The fifteenth annual session of the Western Press Association was held at Wagoner, Okla., December 27, 28. The American, published at Wagoner, which is to be the official host of the organization, says: "This meeting will be one of the largest and best ever held since the organization of the Association." The National Negro Press Association sends greetings and best wishes.
The New Orleans Business Journal,
a Negro weekly, has been changed to
a daily, and is henceforth to be known
as "The Daily Spokesman."
W. E. King, editor of the Dallas Ex-
press was united in marriage December
18 to Miss Mattie S Mansfield, of
Dallas, Texas.
The Daily Reporter, published by colored men, six days in the week, has been launched at Jacksonville, Fla. Speaking of this and other Negro dailies that have appeared recently, the Nashville Globe says: "The advent of these dailies in the realm of Negro journalism speaks volumes for a people who have always taken a deep interest in the publication of newspapers, but who have been hampered in their efforts from a lack of finance, and more so from the lack of knowledge of the art of printing and dissimulation. The Negro is learning something about journalism and this knowledge is being shown in the very promising dailies that are being launched in populous centers."
Sylvester Russell is now in charge of the theatrical mage of the Illinois Chronicle, published at Chicago, by W. D. Neighbors.
Thirty-one colleges and universities in this country teach journalism.
Editor A. E. Manning, of the Indianapolis World, and Editor R. S. Abbott, of the Chicago Defender, have been visiting in the east, touching New York, Washington and other points.
The Crisis claims a circulation of 24,000.
The Republican National Committee, with a view of regaining power four years hence, is urging local organizations everywhere to secure control of at least one local paper to teach the doctrines of republicanism for the next presidential campaign. Here is a chance for some of our papers of political inclinations to "get in on the ground floor."
Specialization is taking such a firm hold upon the modern journal that we are now having circulation worked up among special interests by men trained for the particular field sought by the owner. No one man to-day can successfully run a newspaper, for the people insist upon departments that call for widely diversified talents and methods.
Among the publicity agents who are said to be in line for something good at the hands of the Wilson administration are Cary B. Lewis and T. Wallace Swann, of Chicago; James A. Ross, of Detroit and Buffalo; Cleveland G. Allen and W. E. B. DuBois, of New York City; J. H. W. Howard, of Harrisburg, Pa., and others.
B. J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, who suffered a nervous breakdown a few weeks ago, is slowly recovering. Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson has been assisting him in his manifold duties in connection with the Odd Fellows.
The Odd Fellows' Journal, H. P. Slaughter, editor, is to remain in Washington, D. C.
Mrs. Daisy M. Saffell, of Shelbyville, Ky., is making a fine showing as editor of "The Kentucky Club Woman," the official organ of the Kentucky Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, with headquarters at Louisville. Mrs. Saffell is a capable undertaker, a polished orator and a social leader of culture and forceful personality. The latest issue of her paper carries a well-written story of the meeting of the National Association of Colored Women at Hampton, Va., illustrated with an excellent likeness of Mrs. Margaret Murray Washington, the new president of the Association. As secretary and spokesman for the National Association of Colored Under-takers, Mrs. Saffell added largely to her laurels at the Chicago meeting of the National Negro Business League last August.
Cupid has invaded the office of the Journal and Guide at Norfolk, Va., and taken as captives Henry Cheatham Young, secretary and assistant manager of the Guide Publishing Company and associate editor of the Journal and Guide, and Miss Sallie Cecelia Carr, a graduate of the Norfolk Mission College, who has been for some time a bookkeeper in the office of the paper. The marriage was the culmination of a pretty romance, and the happy couple have been overwhelmed with congratulations.
The Chicago Defender, edited by R S. Abbott, a "natural-born hustler," is one of the very best papers published by the race in this country. It is up-to-date in new features, the matter is attractively arranged and the opinion-page is original in thought and courageous in expression. The Defender has "put one over" on its contemporaries by getting on sale in the elevated train news-stands in the "loop district," Chicago's big business center.
The high-class race journal introduces the Negro to his progressive self.

Church at the appointed hour to listen to an interesting program of music and addresses from representatives of various colleges. Dr. R. T. Burt presided with his usual easy grace and during the course of the evening made many happy remarks well worth treasuring. Mr. Ira B. Scott, of Nashville, was a fine representative of Walden, both in his happy address and in his suburb handling of the bow.

FISK UNIVERSITY GETS PARTIAL RELIEF—ROSENWALD GIVES HELP—STILL STRUGGING TO RAISE ENDOW.
Announcement was made yesterday that the trustees of Fisk University have been able to meet the conditions of Mr. Julius N. Rosenwald's offer of $2,500 a year for a part of the current expenses of Fisk University, which the Board of Trustees are finding increasingly hard to raise. The conditions of a five year annual offer of $2,500 was made by Mr. Julius N. Rosenwald, of Chicago, to the University about a year ago as follows:
"I will, for a term of five years, be one of four persons who will contribute to Fisk University $2,500 per annum. Or I will give $2,500 annual-
ly for five years, as soon as you have found persons who will contribute the balance of a $10,000 annual fund for the same term, no contributions to be less than $1.00 per annum; further that these additional subscriptions must all come from new subscribers or additional subscriptions from former subscribers; further, that the full amount of these pledges must be received and the first payment made during the year 1912."
The Trustees have been making strenuous efforts for two years to raise a fund of $300,000 to pay off accumulated indebtedness, made necessary repairs on the plant and leave a balance for endowment. Nearly two-thirds of the amount has been raised, $60,000 being offered by the General Education Board, $25,000 by J. Pierpont Morgan, with a number of other smaller pledges, amounting t $181,000, all conditioned upon the raising of the total amount. The authorities of the University are now planning a campaign in Nashville, the home city.
