ARTHUR W. THOMAS, JR. FORMER
NASHVILLE BOY.
Meets Death in Georgia—Supposed to
Have Been Accidental—Number of
Children Were Playing—One
Said He Would Shoot Thomas—Thought to be Joking
—Body Brought to This
City—Family Once
Lived Here.
Arthur W. Thomas, Jr., son of Mr.
A. W. Thomas, was shot and killed
in Athens, Ga., Thursday of last week.
The shooting is supposed to have
been accidental, but the father of
young Thomas could not give any definite statement a sto the truthfulness
of the assertion, other than to rela
wha others who are supposed to have
witnessed the tragedy told him. Several children were playing and young
Thomas, it is said, was in the yard,
when one boy told him he would shoot
him, in what was supposed to be a
mere joke, but the young fellow went
into the house and returned with an
air rifle and shot young Thomas. He
died Friday morning about 2 o'clock
The body was brought to this city and was buried from the residence of the boy's grandmother, Mrs. Mary Hightower, of 613 Fern street. He was fourteen years years old and was engaged in the grocery business. Before leaving Nashville young Thomas joined the Spruce Street Baptist Church, of which he was a member to the time of his death. The Thomas family lived on Sixteenth avenue, North, while residents of Nashville. The father was for a number of years an employee of the Mitchell Bakery Company. Later he accepted a position at the Terminal Station. He moved to Athens, Ga., where he embarked in the grocery business and was hopeful of the young son's succeeding him. His sudden death is a great shock to the father and the friends of the family in this city,.

A GOOD AND BELOVED WOMAN
PASSER AWAY.
Monday morning at half past six o'clock the grim reaper robbed Nashville of one of her oldest and most beloved citizens in the person of Mrs. Martha Lillard, the mother of Mrs. Susie J. Carter, of 713 Gay street, and the grandmother of Mr. Samuel L. Carter, the tailor. The deceased lived to a good old age, and was recognized by all the young people of the community as "grandma." The funeral was conducted at the First Baptist Church by the pastor, Rev. W. S. Ellington, assisted by Rev. S. Jackson, pastor of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, and Dr. N. H.

JOHN A. ANDREW MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, TUSKEGEE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE.
WILL TAKE EF FECT IN OCTOBER
COMMISSION FORM OF GOVERNMENT WILL CGME IN PLAY.
Primary Will Be Held in September—Eliminates Negro Councilman—Board of Trade Favored the Change — Believed Councilman Harris Concurred in it—Mayor Howse Will Stand for Re-election.
On and after next October 14 Nashville will be under a commission form of government, shifting from a form that is almost as old as the city itself. Nearly a century and a quarter ago the city elected its first Mayor, changing then from the rule of the old "Town Board" plan that always the village out on its voyage to metropolitanism.
Nashville is now 135 years old, and when the new form of municipal government takes the reins it will be a revolution in the manner of doing things municipal.
Instead of having a legislative department, known as the Common Council, she will have a commission of five. All her governmental power will be vested in that commission. She will have a city head, who will be the president of the commission and will appoint subordinates in his department, which, under the charter bill, are in the police and health departments, and then his recommendations for all heads of his departments must have the sanction of the Comsion, or a majority of them.
The President or Mayor will have a vote in the selection of the heads of all other departments, and therefore will have power in naming the working forces in every department of the city government.
The new order of things will abolish the Common Council, thereby doing away with the only Negro officeholder in the city. The Negro Board of Trade, however, voted its approval of the new charter, and since Councilman Harris is a member of the Board it is presumed he favored the commission form in that it is the best thing for the city.
Election in September.
The general primary, which will be non-partisan and under the direction of the Election Commissioners, will be held September 12. All qualified voters will be permitted to vote, whether they be Democrat, Republican or what not. They will be asked to vote for their choice for three of the men who will go to constitute the commission. They must select a candidate for Mayor, or President of the board, and two others—commissioners. While the commission will be made up of five, two members of the present Board of Works hold over by virtue of their election by the people, which is not interfered with by the new charter measure.
The two holdovers are J. M. Wilkerson, who has charge of streets, squers and sidewalks, who has four years to serve, and Capt. J. D. Alexander, governing the fire department, street sprinkling and building.
The new commission, which must take over the entire city government in all its branches, will be made up as follows:
President, or Mayor—Directly governing police and health.
First Commissioner—Finances, revenue, lights and market house.
Second Commissioner—Streets, sewers and sidewalks.
Third Commissioner—Fire, sprinkling and building.
Fourth Commissioner—Waterworks, street cleaning and workhouse. The commissioners will have the power to recommend only names for heads of the subordinate departments. The entire commission or a majority
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY FEBRUARY 28, 1913.
of that body must approve of their selections. Each member may, without concurrence of the commission, hire menials and day laborers.
The legislative duties of the commission will be the same as vested now in the Common Council, save that the Mayor is shorn of his veto power. He cannot nullify a measure, as this power is left to a majority of his colleagues. If a measure not satisfactory to the Mayor comes before the body he has only a vote. If three members see it different from his viewpoint it may be made a law by their votes and the head of the commission may not interfere with it.
The civil service commission powers are delegated to the commission under the charter, but those in the employ of the city under the present regime will remain under that service after the commission is in power. The police and firemen are under the rules of the civil service at this time. Mayor Howse has stated that he would stand for re-election as President of the Commission, and will in the near future make a full statement of his stewardship.
THE BOOSTER CAMPAIGN OF THE KNIGHTS OF PYTHIA,
A. W. Fite, Deputy Grand Chancellor Knights of Pythias, has just returned from a sailing around the state. He reports that the booster campaign for an increased membership is well under way and the results very satisfactory. The Lodges are rapidly recruiting their ranks and the outlook is redolent. It is believed that the coveted ten thousand will be on the Pythian roll book by August 1st. At Jackson Mr. Fite was taken in hand by Rev. A. N. Stevens, Grand Vice Chancellor Sir J. H. Trinable, Grand Prelate W. H. M lone, Grand Deputy and Sir Zack Adams. A Regular Pythian love feast was had and much interest aroused in behalf of the order.
Memphis, through Knights T. H. Hayes, Wayman Wilkerson, Treasurer Endowment Board; J. H. Brown, Grand Master of Exchequer; C. H. Cooper, B. F. Booth, Grand Attorney, and G. W. Williams, D. G. C.; arranged the courtesies. The Knights of the Bluff City are making herculean efforts that the campaign may be more than successful.
Covington was the next place where it was found that the order was in splendid condition. Drs. Walton, Connell and Price and Pror. E. Alston extended many hospitalities.
At Millington was entertained by Sir A. L. Wiltie.
Mr. Fite has received letters from all over the state encouraging the movement. There is no doubt in the minds of Pythian leaders that they will get the coveted ten thousand.
STABBED IN LUNG IN A FIGHT.
Ed Long, an employee of the Banner was stabbed in a fight in the Mt. Nebo section Sunday, the knife penetrating his right lung. At the City Hospital he is reported as getting along as well as could be expected.
MEN CLAIM THAT NEGRO SHOT
THEM.
Heek Terry, of 2615 Vinson street, and John Gray, of 520 Twenty-seventh avenue, were shot Sunday afternoon, they claim, by a Negro man at the corner of Twenty-ninth avenue and Cedar street, following an altercation. Terry was taken to the City Hospital where it was found that a bullet had entered his left leg. Gray was removed to his home only a block away with a bullet in his thigh. They claim only three shots were fired, but could give no accurate description of their assailant. Neither is dangerously injured.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN MANGLED BY
TRAIN
The body of an unidentified man was found on the tracks of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway Sunday night near Eleventh avenue. The man had evidently been engaged as a laborer as two handpads used in catching brick were found in his pockets. He had evidently been dead some time when his mangled remains were found by a railroad watchman. Nothing in his clothing could be found which would lead to his identity.
"GIVE ME THAT MONEY"
THESE WERE THE WORDS OF A
BOLD THIEF.
Mr. I. E. Green Forked It Up to the
Tune of $80.00—Hold Up Occurred
About 9:30 O'Clock Saturday
Night—Was Eating His
Lunch at the Time—Sus-
pect Arrested and
Held to Criminal
Court.
Last Saturday night about half past nine o'clock Mr. I. E. Green, who conducts a grocery at the corner of Sixteenth avenue and Hamilton street was robbed of $80 in cash. It was as bold a hold-up as has ever been attempted in this city. Mr. Green was seated on a chair eating a lunch Business had quieted down and it was the first chance he had to eat supper. His brother, Mr. Lawson Green, was on the opposite side of the room when the robber entered. Mr. Green says he stammed the door open and with a vile oath leveled a pistol on his brother and demanded that he not move with a threat that he would blow his brains out. He then covered a boy that was in the place and ordered him under a box which order he lost no time obeying. With the coolness of a hardened bandit he turned his attention to Mr. I. E. Green and the money and "that d—quick. Mr. Green had not moved out of his seat to this time, but being imbled with the love of life that makes man willing to give all he has to retain his life, he opened the cash register and handed out of his days receipts to the amount as stated above.
The robber pitched him a sock and told him to put the money in it after which he pulled the boy in front of him and backed not the door. The police were called, but before they could arrive two men came in inquiring of the trouble. Mr. Green told them that one of them answered the description, but he stoutly denied it. But the two remained in the store and when the officers arrived they were in a corner talking in a low tone. They were asked what they were doing there, and upon Mr. Green's testimony that one of them answered the description of the robber, the police placed him under arrest. His name is David Bennett, a young white man about 20 years old. He was arranged in Police Court Tuesday morning and was bound over to the Criminal Court by Judge Killen.
FUNERAL OF MR. CARL MORE
Mr. W. E. Carlmore, a former resident of this city and a brother of Mrs. A. M. Townsend, died at his home in Chicago, Ill., February 23. A brief service was held at their home, 5329 S. Wabash avenue.

NASHVILLE NOT WILLING FOR CONVENTION TO BE MOVED.
Philadelphia's Activity Has Aroused the City—People Generally Are Anxious for the Meeting—Means Much to the City Great Jubilee Year—This the Logical Point—Center of Negro Population.
Whether Nashville will entertain the great National Baptist Convention that was voted to come here by the Executive Committee at its recent session in Tuskegee appears now to depend largely upon whether Philadelphia, where a movement has been started that is attracting some attention, can succeed in having the Executive Committee reconvene and rescind its action and accept her invitation, which, it is understood, has been formulated and has the indorsement, not only of the Baptist forces of the City of Brotherly Love, but the support of the citizenship of Philadelphia and the state of Pennsylvania.
As soon as this information reached the city a close investigation was begun by a Globe representative. Some of the leading denominational and business men were interviewed on the subject and were unanimously for Nashville and making it clear that Nashville would fight any effort on the part of the Executive Committee to rescind its action.
The logical argument is pressed that Nashville, on account of its geographical location, is the proper place for holding the semicentennial of the Negro Baptists of the country, and being the headquarters of the denomination is further argument to the fact that in keeping with President Morris' plan for the fifteenth anniversary, no place could be better selected than the capital of Tennessee, the educational center of the South. Leading Baptists of Nashville are bringing strong pressure to bear to show why the Convention should not be moved. Chief among these arguments appears the fact that Nashville wants the Convention and that Nashville is willing to entertain it. But backing up all of this is the contention that what the Executive Committee has done should be final.
the Citizenship generally are opposed to the leading men of Nashville sitting idly by and allowing Philadelphia to take what has been awarded to this city. On Tuesday expressions were had from men throughout the city who represent the religious, educational and business life of the city. Dr. J. B. Singleton, who is president of the Peoples Savings Bank and the Star Realty Company, declared that the National Baptist Convention was a good thing to bring to Nashville, and that it would be stupidity in its highest form for the business men to allow the Convention to be moved to any other city, north or south. "Nashville is the place for it," declared Dr. Singleton, who aside from being a business man is a prominent layman in a Baptist church.
Dr. A. M. Townsend, cashier of the People's Savings Bank, trustee of Roger Williams University, a member of the faculty of the Meharry Medical College and Secretary of the Tennessee Baptist State Convention, thought that he voiced the sentiment of the entire official family of the State Convention by saying that "not only Nashville but the whole state of Tennessee would resist an attempt to move the 1913 session of the National Baptist Convention," and that from the Nashville viewpoint, the city could bring no greater meeting within its borders than the coming national gathering. "I do not think Nashville could afford to let it go away for many reasons, one of the best being that this is the year of jubilee, of fifty years of freedom. I register my protest individually and officially, said Dr. Townsend.
Prof. J. W. Johnson, president of Roger Williams University, said he was not pastoring in the city but was in the educational work, hence saw through educational lens. "Nobody is more anxious than I that the National Baptist Convention observe its fifty years in the form of a jubilee in this educational center of the South. We invite the Baptists of the world to come to Nashville, and as president of Roger Williams, I shall do my utmost in helping to care for and entertain this great host," said Prof. Johnson.
Mr. W. T. Hightower, one of the biggest merchants in the city, a layman and deacon of one of the leading Baptist churches, declared "Nashville needs the Convention for the spiritual influence it will bring about, for the business advantages it offers and for the impression it will leave upon the whole state and city. We must not lose this opportunity to again entertain the Baptists of the world." Rev. G. B. Taylor, pastor of the Second Baptist Church, secretary of the Stone River Sunday-School Convention, says, "Yes, by all means hold (Continued on Page 8.)

Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Feb. 22. Two great improvements were dedicated as a part of the Institute during the week. As a matter of simple fact, the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, erected at a cost of $55,000, and the equipment of which costs an additional $5,000, was placed here by the granddaughter of the war governor of Massachusetts, father of the famous 54th Regiment of the Civil War, for the colored people of the South, who have few or no hospitals of their own, and who are, as a rule, excluded from the first-class hospitals of the South. The John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, which will be under the immediate direction of Dr. John A. Kenney, Medical Director of the Institute, and President of the National Medical Association, will not fulfill its mission unless from time to time the colored surgeons of the South make use of it for their work. It is an imposing structure, fitted out with every convenience known to hospital surgery.
The hospital, 90 by 136 feet, has three wings or stems projecting on the rear. It has eleven porches. The main feature of the building is a colonial porch fourteen feet wide supported by four large cement columns. It contains fifty room, with fifty-three beds, not including bedrooms set aside for the head nurses and internes, offices for the director, waiting rooms, etc.
The building is constructed of brick with artificial stone trimming. The roof is covered with slate. The interior finish is yellow pine, except the floors which are of birch. The floors of the halls, kitchens, and bath rooms are terrazzo. The operating room, sterilizing room and anaesthetizing room have the floors and the wainscotting, other floors are rift yellow pine and maple.
A silent nurses' call system, operated bylectricity, has been installed and a complete X-Ray apparatus. The building is lighted throughout by electricity and heated by steam. Modern sanitary plumbing has been installed throughout in bathrooms, kitchens, etc.
The aim has been to make the building thoroughly sanitary and to this end mouldings have been omitted, sanitary doors, glass hardware, and other hospital fixtures and furniture have been used. The walls are finished in hard wall plaster and painted in such a way that they can be washed without injury to the paint.
Architecturally, the building is designed in the colonial style and in harmony with other large buildings on the school grounds.
The building is largely the result of the students' work from the digging of the clay, the making and laying of (Continued on Page 3)
POOR SAINTS' DONATION DAY.
Donation day for the Poor Saints' Home was observed last Monday. The occasion goes down as one of the big successes along benevolent and charitable lines for Nashville. This affair was under the auspices of the Ladies' Sewing Circles, subdivided into North, South and West, together with the Home Mission Societies of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Provisions, linen, household goods and cash amounting to a total that was pleasing are reported to have been received. Rev. Dr. Clark, pastor of the church and promoter of the Poor Saints' Home, announced this week that his is still working and hoping that his plans for the Poor Saints' Home, controlled and operated jointly by all the Baptist churches in the city, such as he advocated and has been advocating for a number of years, might soon materialize. He said, "I want one great big and magnificent home for the poor saints of our churches." The concert that was to have been given Wednesday night for the benefit of the Home by the students of Mehrayar Medical College and practicing physicians was postponed on account of insufficient time to make the necessary advertisement. The general reports as to the assistance being given from the public at large, which has a standing invitation to visit the Home, were satisfactory. One physician, Dr. S. S. Caruthers, donated his professional services to the inmates of the Home for one year. This is regarded by the management as the biggest donation the Home has yet received.

SHELBYVILLE NOTES
The entertainment by the students of Turner Normal at the college last Thursday night was one of the very best of the season. Misses Leana Reynolds and Cleo Buchanan captivated the audience with their sweet singing. Miss Buchanan was enclosed on "You keep your eye on me and I will keep my eye on you." The number that seemed to set the house wild, was the "Dance of the Snowfakes." Their executions were all perfect. The "Butterflies" had the most gorgeous and brilliant estumes and really presented the appearance of human butterflies. The boys' Sunflower Drill kept the audience in a roar of laughter throughout the exercise. The entertainment at the public school on Friday night was a splendid affair. It consisted of rhetoricals, singing and two plays, viz. Bonny Bell and George Washington Birthday celebration. Much credit is due the teachers for their good work in training the children.

Keep Out of Court.
A visit to the Criminal or Police Court most any day will convince the most optimistic that one of the greatest handicaps Negroes labor under is the constant paying of court fines. Thousands and thousands of dollars are paid into the coffers of the courts every year by Negroes. And for what? In nine cases out of ten it is some trivial affair that could have been settled by one or the other of two parties using a little discretion. By just deciding that instead of paying court fines to put the same amount of money in the bank.
But how can can these people know what is best unless somebody tells them? Herein lies a great opportunity for service—for the preacher, the lawyer, the teacher, the doctor and in fact, every good citizen, if they would simply take the time to talk to the thoughtless along these lines. If every one in Nashville who is living an upright life would single out one they know to be a frequenter of the courts and show that individual in figures how much they are contributing to the comforts of others and of what they are depriving themselves, a great change would come over this city in the next few months. The deputy sheriffs would have to be reduced in number, and the magis trates would have time to spend some leisure hours at home.
Tidiness.
- It was reported in one of the daily papers that complaint had been made to the Board of Education objecting to the untidy appearance of a Negro girl, whose duty it is to put out a flag at one of the schools. We do not know the facts in this case, but we feel that there must have been some ground for the complaint. The white people of the South are not prejudiced toward Negroes as servants, but they do demand that they be tidy. This is just what they should do, and Negroes should not leave room for complaint along this line. Howsoever poor we may be, we can keep clean, and this age is de曼ing that servants in every capacity keep themselves presentable.
Madero and Suarez.
The death of ex-President Francisco I. Madero and ex-Vice President Jose Pino Suarez are most deplorable, whatever the circumstances may be that caused the tragedy. Both men had suffered the greatest humiliation, which is the severest punishment that can be administered to a soldier. And then it does not speak well for the new regime to have been so lax as to have permitted these men to be exposed to such danger at a period so fraught with strife.
The victor who becomes brutal to a conquered foe strips himself of every semblance of patriotism, and instead stamps himself a dastardly coward. There can be no hope of peace in Mexico as long as such treachery exists.
A. New Departure.
Mr. Edward McLean, the son of John R. McLean, the millionaire newspaper publisher, has adopted a Negro boy into his family to be reared with his boy. He states that his reason for so doing is that his son will not be snobbish and that the colored child, when grown to youthhood, will make a suitable valet for his son. The two are to be reared in luxury, and will both, we suppose, be educated. They will study the same books and will learn that a man is a man. When they reach the age of
fifteen the black boy will then be told that he is to become the servant of his playmate. In this way the rich white man believes he will have a dutiful servant for his son. The idea is contrary to all reason, and instead of the rich young white man having a valet, we fear he will find that the young colored lad who played with him in the white sands of Palm Beach, Florida, will insist on playing poker with him in the clubs of New York and golf with him on the links. Unless al nature goes wrong, Mr. McLean will find his scheme to be a complete failure.
A. Splendid Achievement.
"The Journal and Guide" published in Norfolk, Va., issued an eighteen page "School Special" last week. The issue is a splendid achievement and shows what thrift and industry will do.
On one page is shown six public school buildings, all substantial brick structures. Other schools and colleges in Virginia and North Carolina are exhibited in this issue that tell of the educational strides of the Negroes in the "Tide Water" section.
Messrs. Young and Puryear are to be commended for this very excellent edition. The Journal and Guide stand in the fore ranks of the progressive journals.
Our Retail Merchants
It is not generally known to what extent Negroes are engaged in mercantile business in this city. Nor is it observed how many are entering on a small scale. A most encouraging sign, too, is that these concerns are prosperous. Especially is this true of our grocerymen. There are more Negroes engaged in this line of business now than there ever was, and the failures are fewer. This is as it should be. Nashville is growing in population, which means that business is increasing. People flock to cities on account of its prosperity. True, the irresponsible make up their quota, but the thrifty and industrious are always in the majority. One kind of business creates others, and the Negro population of the city owe it to themselves to keep pace with the times.
This increase in commercial activity among the Negro population should receive a hearty response from all Negroes, and especially those who have been the most fortunate. There should be co-operation among all leaders. More than is apparent. This co-operation should be real. It should be so pronounced that no correspondent could have the least pretext for writing to papers in other cities that the leaders do not heartily support these enterprises. If such co-operation can be had the business enterprises we have will prosper and others of all kinds will be established and will enjoy a like prosperity.
The New York Age in the issue of the 20th pointedly calls attention to the neglected heroes of the Negro race. Matthew Henson suffered with and succored Capt. Peary on his North Pole dash. The nation has honored Peary and made his comfort secure for life. But nothing has been done for Henson. He must shuffle as best he can. The Negro press would do well to pay more attention to these matters.
Prof. Frederick Starr, of the department of the anthropology of the University of Chicago, told his class the other day that in the future the human race would not need hair, teeth and little toes. When that time comes there are some millions of men in this great country of ours who will be relieved of a great burden on the first proposition.
Editorial Clippings.
RACE PURITY VS. MISCGENA TION.
The Democratic Congress has taken up the cudgel of race prejudice and from the present pose seems destined to work the same overtime in the years immediately before us. The latest evidence of this is the passage of a law making it a felony for a white and colored person to marry in the District of Columbia or the territories. It seems late indeed for the country to take such a step to protect the purity of any race variety now living on American soil. Indeed race purity is largely a figment of the imagination any way. There is no such thing as a pure race. So far as the Negroes and concerned about forty per cent of them are apparent admixture of blood while thirty per cent of the remainder have varying admixture of white and Indian blood. In discussions of this kind it is possible to forget that those persons whose race alignment is uncertain can always lay hands on either their father or grandfather while the process of race mingling has been going on for centuries. The fact is that the earlier evidences have been gradually lost in the masses of the Negro people, while only the recent ones as a rule have remained in evidence to this day. Certainly it is not the purpose of the law to make or keep the Negro race pure. On the
NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1913.
other hand there has never been any serious danger of Negro blood being so fused with the white people of the country as to cause any serious loss of race identity on their part. These dangers being disposed of there must be found some other ground for the late step taken by the law makers to assure the protection of race purity. If it is the intent of the law to stop the illegitimate commerce between the white and colored people it does seem that the law would have been so framed as to touch such cases. If there has ever been a law needed its need has been sorely felt along this line. Instead of making a law to prohibit legal wedlock the legislators it seems would have been acting to better purpose had they have made a law prohibiting the illegal oens. As it stands the burden of the new enactment will fall on the colored woman who may desire to claim legitimacy for her children by white fathers. The law disallows her such privilege and puts a stigma upon her and her children. As we see it the burden should not fall there but rather on him whose unbridled passions have led him across the race line. This has always been the crux of the problem of race purity and will remain so until congressmen and legislators are forced by the pubic sentiment of the country to enact laws which will force fathers to be fathers not only in fact but in name.
Now and then a Negro marries a white woman but he is but one against hundreds of colored women who are the illegal common law wives of white men. Make it a felony for the men in either a legal or an illegal case and listen for the whowl.—Durham Reformer.

When you enter a business house run by the opposite race, your first name name, very harshly spoken, is what you hear—if that. The colored people in North Nashville are very anxious for business places to be opened that they may gladly patronize and be treated courteously.
Why not open a grocery, meat market or drug store in the storehouse just built on the corner of Eleventh avenue, North, and Thompson street?
Completely fitted with electric lights, I have also for rent a neat three-room cottage. See me at once for information.

NOTES.
The Young Women's Christian Association gave a Valentine Party with many pleasant features for amusement. The association has decided to clean and beautify the campus. The Young Men's Christian Association will likely assist them. The recent visit of Miss Pinyoun, the secretary of the National Y. W. C. A., was one of the most beneficial and highly enjoyed that the school has ever received from any one. This week will be one of special prayer by all of the Y. W. C. A. members. Soon they will give a Saturday afternoon reception. This promises to be a very grand affair. As usual special instruction will be given in the rules of polite society before hand for such entertainments, that all may know just how to act on such occasions.
The Women's Branch of the Negro Board of Trade will meet Tuesday at 10 o'clock a. m., March 4, 1913, at the rooms of the Board of Trade, 410 Cedar street.
KILLSWOULD-BE LYNCHER.
Farmer, Hidden in Barn, Shoots to Protect Self.
Hickory, Miss. Feb. 18.—Justice of the Peace J. P. Gibbon yesterday held an inquest over the body of Charles Fannin, who was shot and killed near here Sunday night.
John and James Barber, brothers, were held under $1000 bond each, and a preliminary trial will be given them here next Monday.
Evidence produced before the inquest indicated that Fannin had tried to induce two Negroes to steal some cattle from John Barber. One of the Negroes told Barber of this, and he and his brother James went out Sunday evening to investigate the matter.
As they approached the house where one of the Negroes lived, they heard loud talking and stopped to listen. Presently two white men came toward them, each leading a Negro by a rope.
The two Barbers stepped into a barn so as not to be seen, but the party came toward the barn. One of the Barbers suggested that they run, but the other said they would be shot if they made a break, as the moon was shining brightly. The two white men and the two Negroes came into the barn, and one of the white men told the Negroes they were going to hang them and then burn the barn. Fannin struck matches and looked into every stall. As he looked into the stall the Barbers were in, John Barber said to him, "Don't shoot," but Fannin raised his gun and pointed it at them. Barber was too quick for him and shot first, the load from a shotgun striking Fannin in the breast and killing him almost instantly. He shot twice, one load striking Pete Abraham, the other white man, in the hip. Abraham will recover.
REV. HOWARD CONCLUDES A
GREAT REVIVAL.
Bv Rev. J. W. Hall.
Special to the New York Times
Louisville, Ky., Feb. 20—On January 27, the six A. M. E. churches of this city began a union revival. This revival was conducted by Rev. S. L. Howard, of Nashville, Teen. Rev. Howard is no stranger to the people of Louisville and of Kentucky. He began his ministerial career in the West Kentucky Conference and has spent the greater portion of the time since this conference. He was ordained deacon in Quinn Chapel. From his opening sermon to the close of the meeting the people sat in profound wonder at his great power to draw men from sin and wickedness to start a life of righteousness and peace. Sinners could not resist his clear statement of the facts of the stupendous scheme of human redemption, the fearful consequence of rejecting Christ and the impending danger of the wicked, hence they surrendered at once and accepted Jesus as their Savior. His sermons were simply great masterpieces of brain and heart creation and were delivered in power
and demonstratio not the Holy Spirit. One hundred and fifty prious souls of the meeting was the result of were converted. Among these were doctors, teachers, business and other professional men. At least half of the number converted were men from the various trades and professions. In delivering his great sermon on the return of the Prodigial Son, nine persons were hopefully converted before he sat down. This was the most sublime scene ever witnessed in this church. No political campaign ever more deeply and widely stirred this city than did this meeting. The eople will never forget Rev. Howard. God grant that this great and good man may live long to bless the church, the race and the world.
OKLAHOMA GETTING READY FOR THE CONGRESS.
Muskogee, Okla.—Permanent headquarters and a regular information bureau have been opened in this city to be known as Sunday-School Congress Headquarters. This action was taken by the Ministers' Union of Muskogee last week, when the real and active work for arranging for the entertainment of the thousands of visitors who would be here on June 4th in attendance upon the eighth annual session of the Sunday-School Congress, was begun. The meeting of the ministers Monday a week ago was perhaps one of the most largely attended since the invitation that had been extended by the State of Oklahoma to the Sunday-School Congress was accepted. The busy preparations that have been under way since it was announced that the meeting was awarded to Muskogee assumed larger proportions at this meeting last week from the fact that forty ladies who will work as an auxiliary to the general committee were selected by the Minister's Union. In connection with these, plans for looking after other forms of the comfort and entertainment and the work of the Congress were launched. The first big move made was as it is stated, the opening of a headquarters in the heart of the city of Muskogee. These headquarters are located in a building down town where will be demolished the Baptist Informer, which has been ordered to move in these headquarters. There will be chairs, desks, registration books, stationery, stamps, local and long distance telephone service and every modern convenience in order to facilitate the preparations for the Sunday-School Workers. The next plan launched was a booster campaign whereby every Congress worker in every city, town, village, hamlet and cross-road of Oklahoma might begin from now to work up an interest in their respective communities for a large delegation during the first week in June. The third plan was the announcement of a mass-meeting. By this it is calculated that the entire populace might come into one great big gathering to hear the virtues of this modern Sunday-school movement extolled.
Fourth, an official letter was ordered sent out to all religious organizations, societies, leagues, commercial clubs and corporations identified with the race and of all prospective supporters of the movement that they might know what plans Muskogee was making for the entertainment of the meeting. The climax of all, however, was the preparation for and the announcement of a banquet that is to be held on Saturday night, March 1st. It will really be the first function of a social nature in connection with the 1913 meeting. The chairmen of the half dozen active committees held a conference after the meeting of the ministers, and it was decided that the Congress headquarters would be operated and that the photos, as far as possible, of the leaders of the denomination should be displayed at headquarters with bunting and national colors. A hurry-up message was sent to Nashville for several of the large pictures of Drs. R. H. Boyd, Director; C. H. Clark, Chairman; William Beckham, Field Secretary; E. C. Morris, President of the National Baptist Convention; W. S. Ellington, Editorial Secretary and Congress Arbiter; J. F. Thomas, the Chicago Live wire and representative, and many others that the Oklahoma Baptists might become more thoroughly acquainted and familiar with them before the meeting is called to order.
METOKA AND GALEDA MEETING
METOKA AND GALEDA MEETING
A special meeting to all the classes of Metokas and Galedas that have been erected in Nashville was held last night at the Baptist Publishing House Chapel. Meeting with these organized classes was the Executive Committee of the Metokas and Galedas. It is understood they put plans on foot for the organization of a standing chorus in the interest of these classes.
KING'S DAUGHTERS.
The King's Daughters of Paynes Chapel, East Nashville, met at the residence of Mrs. Catherine Bradford, 626 Webster street. Meeting was opened at the usual time by the president, Mrs. Sallie King, with song and prayer, after which the roll was called and each member responded with a quotation from the Bible. After all business was transacted the hostess served delicious ices. The ladies then adjourned to meet with Mrs. Millie Wright, Tuesday, February 24th.
CORRECTION.
Correction is made of the local which appeared in the Globe a week ago, announcing that Mrs. Lizzie Wells Adams had departed, who is reported to have decided to remain in the city perhaps until the commencement exercises of the Meharry Medical College, from which her brother-in-law, Dr. Brown, will graduate.

Other numbers on the program were a paper by Miss Molinda Patton on "The Relation of the Galedas to the Metokas;" duet by Mesdames Maud McClellan Thorn and Ida Thompson Baker; a solo by Mrs. Effe Bushell, and two special addresses by the presidents of the classes. The effort, declared Dr. Clark, was the best put forth by the Metokas and Galedas of Nashville. Quite a number of visitors were present. Mr. Perle Winslow, of Springfield, Ohio, was introduced and made the acquaintance of the classes. Mrs. Sarah A.E. Jones was awarded the prize for tagging the greatest number of people, she having tagged ninety-eight during the week.
PROF. HALE ADDRESSES LARGE
AUDIENCE IN McMINNVILLE.
McMinnville, Tenn., Feb. 22.—Prof. William J. Hale, President of the Agricultural & Industrial State Normal College at Nashville, addressed a large and enthusiastic audience at Clark Chapel last night. The crowded house, an attentive assembly were but a slight indication of the great interest manifested in this young educator and his work throughout the state. Systematic, intelligent and reliable service in a person were the points most strongly emphasized in the course of his lecture, during which he explained the operation of his school and its great possibilities to the young men and women of the race.
The program for the occasion was as follows: Selection, brass band and Orchestra; "Holy, Holy, Holy," choir and congregation; devotions, Rev. J. B. Boothe, D. D., LL. D.; anthem, "The Shepherds King," choir; welcome address, S. E. Washington, M. D.; "Down in the Deep Let Me Sleep When I Die." St. Cecelia Quarret (composed of high school students); address, President W. J. Hale; solo, "Sing Me to Sleep." Miss Bessie Taylor, piano accom., Miss Ellen Gwynn.
President Hale was received at the residence of Prof. and Mrs. J. E. Wood on East Main street by a reception committee with all the hospitality becoming the dignity of his office. The Brass Band, led by Messrs. Anderson and Roberts, did its best in pealing out the liveliest notes of welcome.
Present of the committee were Dr. and Mrs. Thompson, Dr. Washington, Miss Jennie Durley, teacher; Miss Elen Gwynn, teacher; Miss Bessie Taylor, teacher in city school; Miss Jesse L. Gwynn, teacher in city school. President Hale's lecture was sound and logical. Many anxious parents lingered long after, I norder to shake the hand of this distinguished educator, who has made many friends for himself and his institution in this section.
BEE KEEPING IN TENNESSEE.
By Cap. T. F. Peck, Commissioner of
Agriculture.
Not many people realize the magnitude, importance and possibilities of the bee-keeping industry. But few understand that it is a profitable industry and that it is an avocation which one may follow exclusively and make a comfortable life, to say nothing of a surplus income. It has been proven that it is a branch that can be made to yield a larger profit for the same amount of outlay and a less expenditure of labor and money than any ordinary branch of agriculture. If only a small part of the attention which many farmers are giving to other branches were given to the cultivation of a good strain of bees they would be surprised at the success they would achieve and the increase of their annual income.
The census reports of 1900 place the number of beekeepers in the United States at over 700,000, the number of colonies or swarms of bees at over 4,000,000 and the annual income from honey and wax at over $22,000,000. These figures give the average annual income from each hive of bees at $5.50. This estimated average per hive comes from the count of the good, bad and indifferent beekeepers. If the bad and the indifferent beekeepers were left out the average per swarm would be much greater. Indeed it is a profitable industry when pursued after modern, up-to-date methods. We can safely say that each stand of bees when looked after intelligently, scientifically, using modern appliances will yield to keepers, at a low estimate, $5, and under favorable conditions as much as $$ and $10, and sometimes more.
There is no agricultural pursuit that will equal bee-keeping in returns for the lavar and money expended. Each hive will cost approximately $3 and should yield annually from $5 to $8 with but little labor and very small additional expense. Any farmer, fruit-grower, nurseryman, who "takes time by the forelock and makes his preparations in the winter-time for the honey flows in the spring and summer, can easily care for fifty, seventy-five, or even a hundred colonies of bees and have from three to six hundred dollars to his credit at the end

of the season. When attention has been given to this preparatory work in the winter when the weather is too cold, wet and disagreeable for farm work, very little time will be required from the regular farm duties to help the bees gather hundreds and hundreds of pounds of nature's most delicious sweet. The work will really be reduced down to putting on supern for the bees to fill—tiering up each hive as the demand for room comes with a favorable honey flow. Taking off the supern is a simple matter and the work of extracting and bottling can be done at add times at one's own convenience. One of the members of the Tennessee Bee Keepers' Association has a farm of 250 acres, all in cultivation, to demand his attention. He is an aggressive, up-date farmer, and yet with all this farm to plan for and direct, he finds time to look after a well-kept apiary. During the summer of 1911 the returns from his fifty-seven stands of bees amounted to a little over $400, and his farm received practically as much attention as it would have received if he had not had the bees. He has increased his apiary to over one hundred colonies and plans for an annual income of one thousand dollars from his bees alone. What he can do you can do also, Mr. Farmer, if you want to. It is the same old story of intelligence backed with determination—of "know how" and "want to." It sometimes seems that about nine-tenths of the people think that to handle bees one must possess special powers over them—must be gifted in a special way—must have "hooooo" power, and that only those thus specially endowed should venture near a swarm of bees. All of this is a mistake—nonsense. We have no "bee witches" or persons specially endowed. What one man can do any other man can learn to do. It is a matter of education, and the knowledge of how to handle bees can be obtained by any man or woman.
In looking over the statistics for the honey industry in Tennessee and comparing them with other states, we find that while Tennessee occupies third place as to number of colonies or swarms, it only occupies fifth place in income of honey and wax. Why this low place? The answer can be quickly given and the reason easily understood when we refer to the old-fashion way in which the bees are cared for, the large number of homemade boxes and old-time "gums" that the bee sare kept in. It will be safe to say that two-thirds of the bees in the state are kept in these unprofitable hives. If he bee-king people over the state would transfer their bees from the old home-made gums to the modern movable frame hives and look after them in the proper way and at the proper time the 300,000 swarms in the state would bring in an annual income of approximately $2,000,000 instead of only $250,000, as at present. "How to Keep Bees" will be given in later talks to farmers.
FOUR VISITORS PRESENT
Four visitors prominent in Sunday-school work were present at the regular monthly meeting of Galeda Class No. 16 of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, which was held at the residence of the teacher and treasurer of the class, Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Boyd, 1603 Harding street, last Wednesday night. The pastor of the church, Dr. C. H. Clar., made an eloquent appeal, admonishing the class to continue the splendid work they are now doing. He declared that since this was the first chartered Galeda class in the United States, having received its charter at Meridian, Miss., at the Sunday-School Congress, that it was naturally to lead. In closing his remarks he suggested that the class make an early selection of those to represent them at the Sunday-School Congress. The report of the committee on entertainment, showed that the Valentine Entertainment held the week prior was both a financial and social success. The class was officially notified of the death of one of its members, Mrs. Mary B. Polk. They voted to send a handsome floral design and authorized eight members of the class to accompany the pastor of the church, furnishing them conveyance to attend the funeral, which was held at Lake Providence, about eight miles out from the city, on Thursday of last week.
The class also listened to an invitation to the wedding of one of its members, Miss Willie Henley, which took place Thursday night, on Vanderbilt Campus, to Mr. J. A. Hamilton, of Fisher, La. Others who addressed the class were Mrs. Lizzie Wells Adams, wife of Dr. Adams, of Smithville, Texas, and Miss Lourretha Ursa Chambers. The membership of the class was reported at 76.
After the appointment of several committees the entire class was invited into the dining-room by Mrs. Boyd and was served a beautiful collation. The cakes and ices were very unique, the cakes being individual, with the word "Galeda" written upon them. The brick cream had the figures "15" through the center and when sliced the class number was very much in evidence. Thus the guests during the entire repast were confronted with "Galeda, No. 16." The next meeting will be at the residence of Mrs. Johnson on Cedar street.

THE SERVANT OF ALL THE PEOPLE.
The impression has gained some foothold among the members of some of the social clubs that this paper caters to a special class. It has come to us that some have said that the Globe would not publish news for a club unless that club's name was in our Directory. This sounds so absurd that we feel it hardly worth while to mention it. An enemy would not have the heart to say such about the Globe. We do not believe there are any enemies to this paper, therefore we are loath to believe there is any foundation to the report. The Nashville Globe is the servant of all the people. It is our purpose to serve all the people all the time. If any one tells you the Globe will not publish your news you bring the news to us and we will prove to you that the information you received is untrue. You do not have to pay for news matter in the Globe. When your club meets have your reporter write it up and send it to us, and we will tell the world about it.

"JIM CROW" NEWSPAPER.
The NASHVILLE GLOBE enables the Negro of Nashville to be independent of all such humiliations, and Chattanooga need not stand for such. Lets talk it over.
Look on the front page of your Chattanooga News of next Saturday for two pretty black stars. If stars are there and you are a white man, throw the paper into the gutter at once, for the management of the paper does not want you to read it. If you are a Negro and the stars are not there, hasten to return the paper to the carrier, for it is a white man's paper and the News management insists that Negroes must not read the papers printed exclusively for white people.
It is a system of newspaper publication that appeals to the well-posted newspaper man and reader as one of the funniest schemes ever evolved. The proposal of punishing a "Jim Crow" newspaper is something new under the sun. There have been Jim Crow restaurants, Jim Crow postoffices, Jim Crow laws regulating the seating of the races in street cars. But who ever heard of a Jim Crow newspaper, an edition that is forbidden to the whites, and another that is under the ban so far as the Negroes are concerned?
Those stars, which were seen in last Saturday's issues of the News, appear on the front page of the copies printed for exclusive perusal by the Negroes. It had not been supposed that the Negroes were intelligent enough to guess the hidden meaning of the little black characters, and it was not intended that the Negroes should secure possession of other editions of the paper so as to find that there was a discrimination in the matter of alleged news dished out for the consumption of different elements of local citizenship. But the publishers of the paper made a bad guess. The black stars were the wrong color. The color press should have been brought into play and the stars printer red or green or any other color excepting the significant black. The Negroes, who are, many of them, careful newspaper readers, have not been fooled in the slightest. In fact, those who received last Saturday's

fast to what we have. We have captured the Convention; do not surrender it."
Rev. J. C. Fields, pastor of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, a member of the faculty of Roger Williams University, said, "Our churches, with their large memberships and with the co-operation of the citizens of Nashville, will consider it a privilege and a pleasure to entertain the National Baptist Convention."
Prof. F. G. Smith, principal of Pearl High School, declares "No greater opportunity for Nashville to stamp it self-indulently upon the minds of the world as an educational center will be offered than to have the great National Baptist Convention, with its brainy leaders and its large delegation to come within the portals of the city to spend a week during the month of September. It would be a calamity to lose it." Hon. J. C. Napler, register of the United States Treasury and cashier of the One-Cent Savings Bank of this city, says "Nashville wants every good movement that can be started
(From Chattanooga Times.)
Jim Crow paper are up in arms. The same ones, when served with Monday's publication, to a great extent, tore their papers into shreds without ever looking for the Jim Crow mark in Churchville and in the Negro settlements in the city the News is now a Jim Crow paper and it will take a generation to get that idea out of their head.
Page 20 of Saturday's issue of the News was the one where the exclusion of news was made for the benefit of different elements of readers. The sop was thrown to the laboring people on one side and to the Negroes on the other. Of course, the laboring people have made no complaint that they have been deprived of the cream of the news of the colored people, nor have the Negroes made definite complaint that they have been deprived of reading the news of laboring circles. The latter think their news, if worth publication at all, should be served to the white readers as well as colored. What is the good of publishing the doings of the colored people if only colored people, who already know, of all the happenings, are to be informed? They want the white people to read of them and it is just now the subject of much discussion among them that their news is not considered good reading for the entire circulation of any newspaper. The bait to secure something like a circulation among the colored people of the city and suburbs has not been swallowed up to date.
Those two stars were placed on the front page of Saturday's News as information to the carrier boys to whom to deliver the paper. They worked it effectively so far as can be learned. It cannot be found that any white people secured copies of the Jim Crow edition, neither did the Negroes get copies of the white edition unless they bought them on the street. Yesterday a copy of the black edition was brought to The Times by a Negro of Churchville, who was one of a number who came in possession of both editions. It was stated that the Negroes felt outraged by the
and that has the co-operation of the religious people. From Washington we look towards Nashville as a denominational capital."
Mr. A. N. Johnson, a successful undertaker and proprietor of the Majestic Theater, who has donated his theater as a place for the meeting of the Women's Auxiliary of the National Convention, declared: "We citizens of Nashville are only too proud of an opportunity to show to the world that we are not only wide-awake ourselves but that we want the world to know that within our gates there awaits for them a hospitable reception. The coming of the great National Baptist Convention should not be endangered by any lack of effort on the part of the business men. As chairman of the Executive Committee of the Negro Board of Trade and personally, I want the world to know that we are standing behind the invitation that has been extended to the National Baptist Convention to come to this city."
Rev. C. H. Clark, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, declares "There will perhaps not be given to Nashville for the next quarter of a century another opportunity to show

move of the News, and they proposed to let the publishers know that as subscribers they were entitled to the news of all sorts printed by that paper. On the other hand, they value at nought the printing of their news for colored consumption only. Page 20 of the Jim Crow edition of the News of last Saturday was headed "News and Notes of Chattanooga's Colored Population. Edited by Prof. T. W. J. Tobias."
One advertisement was secured by reason of the page, that of a colored photographer of East Ninth street. He took one inch single, displayed. The leading news story related to the coming National Baptist Convention at Nashville. Then came an item about the State Normal for colored people at the state capital. A long quotation from Dr. B. F. Riley, of Birmingham, on "Our Duty to the Negroes," was full of advice to the white people of the south, but none of them saw it, by reason of its publication in this edition, which reached no white people. Booker Washington was given nearly a column. News of various churches and lodges took up considerable space. The Rev. M. W. Moore had a card in which he thanked the management of the paper for an offer to give this page a week to the news of the colored people. That offer was probably made privately, and it remains to be seen whether the colored pastor understood that the Negro news was to be sacredly kept away from white eyes. The most interesting column was devoted to social news of colored circles. The name of the society editor was not published. Among social gatherings given prominence was a meeting of the Modern Dorcas Embroidery Circle and the Married Ladies' Club.
Page 20 of the white edition was headed "A Page of Interest to Wage Earners." Wage earners among the Negroes were not permitted to see this page of interest to them. It will be interesting to watch for the Jim Crow stars on the News of next Saturday.
what the race and the denomination have done, if the Convention is removed or allowed to go elsewhere. I vote come on to Nashville. We will guarantee a hearty reception and a cordial welcome."
Rev. John Slaughter, moderator of the Stone River Association, which has its largest membership out of Nashville, said, "Come on to Nashville, ye National Baptist Convention forces, you shall be our guests. I second the invitation and shall support every effort that shall be put on foot for your entertainment."
Rev. Preston Taylor, Nashville's oldest undertaker and a business man of known ability and who is proprietor of Greenwood Park that has splendid street car service, said, "You have my fullest co-operation, my sympathy, my influence from a moral, intellectual, religious and financial point of view. Bring the Convention to Nashville and if possible bring Philadelphia with it. We will entertain both at the same time."
Dr. R. H. Boyd, Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, said, "Perhaps it is not time for me to talk. My talk was done at the Executive Board meeting and the people of Nashville joined in my atti-
tude. I am for the Convention first, last and always. Nashville needs the gathering at this particular time."
The editor of the Union-Review, Prof. J. D. Crenshaw, stated: "I voted in the Executive Committee for Philadelphia, but my heart always is for Nashville, and since the Committee voted to come here we will entertain it and we will not surrender our rights to another."
Rev. Wm. Haynes, chairman of the Ministers' Conference, was also called. He declared he was going to do all he could for the entertainment of the National Baptist Convention, but that he would not care to be quoted as to his personal attitude towards the Convention coming to Nashville.
There are scores of others who expressed themselves on their unwillingness that Nashville should lose the Convention. The following telegram was sent to President E. C. Morris, D. D., at Helena, Ark., and Prof. R. B. Hudson, A. M., Secretary of the National Baptist Convention, Selma, Ala.:
"Persistent rumors to the effect that movements are on foot to rescind the action of the Executive Committee and carry the Convention to Philadelphia cause much unceasiness among the citizens, who are already at work on the entertainment. Wire if such action is probable.
"Nashville Globe."
The Board of Trade and the other local organizations are now at work just as though Philadelphia had made no attempt to capture the meeting, feeling assured that the Executive Committee will not rescind its action at Tuskegee.
MEHARRY Y. M. C. A. ADDRES$ED
BY DR. J. A. MCMILLAN.
THE Y. M. M. C. A. was greatly edified on Sunday afternoon 23rd inst, when Dr. J. A. McMillan, professor of Gynecology of Meharry Medical College lectured on "Birds of a Feather Flock Together."
The doctor made reference to nature for examples of the truth of the proposition, and, turning to his audience, declared that they should standardize their association, not on external or transient blandishments, but rather, on moral integrity, educational attainments and health.
He declared that the highest social relationship should not be established between persons of opposite tendencies, and possessing unequal qualifications—in short that they should not be unequally yoked.
He advised more careful forethought in the selection of companions and life partners, as the highest contributory factor to the welfare of the race—thus preserving its social, moral and intellectual worth.
The attendance was unusually large and consisted not only of the members of the association, but also of a large number of the students of Walden University and many of the people of the city.
Under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., Students, Memorial exercises will be held at Meharry Auditorium on Sunday afternoon, March 2nd, when a special programme will be rendered. The public is cordially invited.
