ONE TALKED OF IN NASHVILLE ONE IN MEMPHIS Roscoe Conklin Simmons to be Central Figure in Bluff City Movement----Nashville Promotesrs Not Known.
NASHVILLE OFFERS
OPPORTUNITY
NEW NEWSPAPER FOR
ONE TALKED OF IN MEME
Roscoe Conklin Simmons to City Movement----Nashville
Memphis People Anxious For a Live Wide a Wake Paper—Colonel Simmons, a Man of Wide Experience.
Rumor gained circulation in this city that there are plans under way looking toward the establishment of a new Negro weekly. The promoters of this movement could not be learned, but it is known that a man connected with one of the papers already being published was approached on the subject; whether or not that individual will be interested in another paper is not known. The parties who want to launch the new organ are very determined in their effort, and in all probability another Negro weekly will soon be issued in this city.
It is believed by those who were considering this movement that there is room here for an additional paper. If the new enterprise materializes it will give Nashville three secular papers. As it is probable that the Nashville Tribune will in a few months bring out another issue. With the Tribune in the field agan nd a new paper, Nashville would be ahead of any other Southern city in the number of Negro secular newspapers. In few weeks ago Mr. Roscoe Conklin Simmons, former publisher and editor of the New York American and at one time editor of the New York Age, was in this city discussing the establishment of a live weekly in Memphis. It was also intimated that if the weekly succeeded it would soon be converted into a daily. Mr. Simmons has been looking over the country several months with a view of settling down in newspaper work in some locality where he believes the best service can be rendered. While in Nashville he impressed those with whom he talked that he thought well of Memphis. The Bluff City, it seems, has received the call over both Chicago and Louisville. It was known that people in those cities were anxious to have Mr. Simmons associated with them, but Memphis presents a greater opportunity than either of them for Mr. Simmons to carry out the plans he has in mind.
It could not be learned just when either of these papers would be started, but it is believed that the one in Nashville will be started soon. Memoirs of people may expect them at any day for the men of that progressive city are not long in making up their minds about what they are going to do.
MRS. I. H. HAMPTON STOPS IN NASHVILLE.
Mrs. I. H. Hampton, of Fayetteville, and who is for years the preceptress of Roger Williams University, stopped in the city en route home from Knoxville, Tenn. Mrs. Hampton had spent two weeks in Knoxville in the interest of her nephew, Hiram Armstrong, who is implicated in the Deaf and Dumb School Tragedy. Armstrong's innocence is generally believed and it is believed will be established. Mrs. Hampton employed the best criminal lawyer in Knoxville, Mayor S. G. Heiskell. Lawyer Heiskell has served five terms as Mayor of Knoxville and is widely known and respected. While in Knoxville Mrs. Hampton was the recipient of much sympathy and every kindness from the citizens, among whom were Dr. and Mrs Settle, Dr. Wood, Mrs. Singleton, wife of Patrolman Singleton; Mrs. Crawford Sheriff and Mrs. Evans, Mrs. Polly Cunningham, Rev. and Mrs. Rucker, Rev. D. Hurt, Prof. Gaston and Miss Caldwell, of the D. & D. School, Prof. and Mrs. Beard, Mr. and Mrs. Dock Miller. She was met at the station by a party of friends, including Prof Jackson, Miss Grimes, Miss LaQuade and Miss Martin, of Roger Williams University, and Prof. Caruthers of State Normal. While in the city she was the guest of Dr. and Mrs. A. M. Townsend.
RAISE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY DOL
LARS TO REBUILD CHURCH.
Special to the discos.
Lynnville, Tenn., April 13.—At Waco., one mile west of this place, the Primitive Baptist congregation today held a rally in which they raised $150 to toward the rebuilding of their church. Rev. W. Wilson, of Franklin, is the pastor of the church. Waco is familiarly know asas old Lynnville and was in the path of the recent storm. Every church in the town was destroyed, and only three buildings were left standing. The Primitive Baptists are the first to start on the re-erection of their building. The effort today was participated in by all the citizens of the the community.
LETTER FROM RESIDENT OF DAYTON, OHIO
Mr. J. H. Kelly, of 1732 Heilman street, received a letter from a friend and class mate now living in Dayton, Ohio, that tells of the suffering of the people generally and the colored people in particular. The letter is as follows:
41 1-2 West Sixth street,
Dayton, O., April 15, 1913.
Mr. J. H. Kelly,
Nashville, Tenn.
Dear Kelly—
I received your letter several days since and was indeed pleased to hear from you, and to know that you are doing so nicely in sunny Tennessee.
Our business was extremely good before the flood, but now the outlook is not so bright. Words cannot picture the devasation that the flood left in its path here. The high water swept right through the center of the city, two miles wide. The basement and first floor of almost every business house in the city are ruined. The property loss is $200,000,000, but it will never be known how many lives were lost. The city has been in darkness, without power and gas, and under martial law for three weeks. Most of the people are fed from the relief stations maintained by the government and the Red Cross Society.
The high water came Tuesday, March 25. I heard that the river was rising and went to see it while Mrs. Rives was getting breakfast, being gone less than a half hour, yet when I returned home I had to wade in water knee deep. We began to carry books and other things upstairs, but in a few minutes the water was running into the house and rapidly filling the first floor. Step by step the water followed us until it was five feet on our second floor, in the mean time we were rescued from the second story window into a boat. It was one week before we could get to our house again. And entering at the expiration of that time what did we find? A horrible sight—the wall paper had fallen, the furniture had been washed apart and broken, our clothes were ruined, unsightly buildings had been washed against our house, and above all, mud, old-fashioned mud, was on both floors over a foot thick: 40,000 people suffered just as we did; and thousands of others returning home found just the ground where the house was. We lost all of our household goods and clothing, yet we are thankful that our lives were saved. At the Record Office a $1,500 press which was in the basement was ruined, hence it will be sometime before The Record will be published again. Tell the Bcyds that the interior of the Zion Baptist Church was ruined. The big pipe organ wrecked. Every colored church in the city but one was damaged.
Yours for success and happiness,
J. H. RIVES.
KNOWLES SCHOOL ALLIANCE
WANTS PURE WATER FOR
THE CHILDREN.
Knowles School Alliance held a meeting in the Knowles School building Friday night of last week at which steps were taken to get better water for the children. It will be surprising to many to know that the children in that school are compelled to drink water out of an old cistern that has been declared by the city Health Department to be impure. This fact has aroused the patrons of the school to take up the matter with the school authorities and endeavor to remedy the evil.
At the meeting Friday night several parents said they would rather pay to have city water put in the school yards than to have their children drink the impure water. A committee was appointed to take up the matter and ask the privilege of having a water pipe run in the school in order that the children might have better water. Several expressed a willingness to donate to a subscription for that purpose.
AN EVENING OF PLEASURE.
Miss Bessie Morgan entertained delightfully a limited number of her friends last Thursday evening, April 3rd, at her home on Sylvan street. Music and games were the features of the evening. A tempting ice course was served. Miss Morgan was assisted in receiving by her mother, Mrs. Thomas Morgan. About twenty-five guests were present.
NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY APRIL 18, 1913.
FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY
ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH HOLDS GOLDEN JUBILEE NEXT WEEK.
Entertainments of Various Natures Will Enliven the Occasion—Many Interesting Feautures will be Engaged in—A History of the Church Interesting.
St. John A. M. E. Church will hold a golden jubilee next week. Entertainments of various natures will enliven the occasion. Many interesting features will be engaged in. A history of the church interesting from many points of view. A list of its pastors from its organization.
Beginning Monday night, April 21, and continuing throughout the week, winding up with a rally on Sunday, the 26th. Dr. G. W. Porter, pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, the officers and members, have planned to celebrate the fiftht anniversary of that historic and commending ling church edifice.
St. John A. M. E. Church is one of the oldest institutions in Tennessee, having been organized fifty years ago in an old brick building that stands until today at the corner of Crawford street and Fifth avenue. It was organized by Rev B. L. Brooks, as pastor. There are few of the members who were in the organization living until this day, among them being Father Grundy and Rev. Felix Mays. To listen to their story of privations and hardships that were undergone by the pioneers of this church makes the blood run cold in the veins, and at the same time creates a high admiration for these old veterans who have stood by the church through thick and thin for these fifty years.
The jubilee celebration will be participated in by all the people of Nashville and the surrounding communities, as St. John is looked upon as one of the landmarks in Nashville and Tennessee. It was the first A. M. E. church organized in this state and is commonly referred to as the mother church. Some of the most prominent preachers in that connection have served as pastors of St John A. M. E. Church. Below is en a list of the pastors in their order:
B. L. Brooks, organizer; Page Teyler, Stonewall Jackson, J. W. Early, Moses Johnson, George Schafer, now a bishop; Henry Harper, G. W. Bryant, T. A. Thompson, James A. Davis, J. W. Picket, Evans Tyre, now a bishop; Cornelius Asbury, D. E. Johnson, T. W. Haigler, B. G. Gordon, A. Brooks, S. L. Howard, B. G. Worter
FAMOUS NEGRO BARATONE COM
COMING
Mr. Harry T. Burleigh, the famous Negro baratone singer, recently honored by singing "Cavalry at the funeral of J. Plerpont Morgan, is coming to Nashville to take the baratone solo work in S. Coloridge Taylor's Hiawatha, which will be rendered by the Mozart Society of Fisk University at Fisk Memorial Chapel, May 2, 1913.
Mr. Burleigh is known as the leading colored baratone soloist of America and one of the most successful composers.
Our well known Prof. J. W. Work will do the tenor solo work.
The rendition this year promises to excel any which has been given by the Society. This Society was the first one in America to render the complete cantata Hiawatha.
MR. HENRY BOSWORT DIES
AFTER A BRIEF ILLNESS.
Mr. H. Bosworth, one of the old citizens of Nashville died Thursday, April 10 at 11 p. m. following a brief illness. Bro. Bosworth had been seriously ill only about two weeks and five days, and only those closely related to him knew of his illness. Although he was feeble for some time, his death came as a great shock to his many friends. He was greatly loved by all who knew him for he was always pleasant and retained to a striking degree, the freshness and grace of youth which combined the development of a fine nature though the experiences of later manhood, gave him an individual that was instinctively sweet and generous.
He was reared in Atlanta, Ga., and lived in Maury County for many years and about twenty-eight years ago, came to Nashville, where he lived until his death. He is survived by his wife, four sons, and two daughters, William H., Jesse C., Walker, W., Frank A., Sarah L and Maggie M. The two oldest sons were unable to be present and Miss Sarah as she sick.
The funeral took place at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church Sunday at 2 p. m. Services were conducted by Revs. S. Jackson and W. S. Ellington. Interment took place at Mt. Aarat.
His favorite hymns were sung: "Flee as a bird," "For the Saints," "Jerusalem the golden," "Some sweet day," Calvary" and "He calleth me."
NEGROES LOOK WITH DISFAVOR ON SMOOKY LOCALITY
THE MINISTERS AND PEOPLE OF NASHVILLE WANT LIBRARY ON HIGHER GROUND
Petition Sent to Commissioners Praying Them not to Accept the Sight Proposed.
12th Avenue and Hynes Street Most Undesirable—InConvenient to Be Reached From All Sections—Negroes Moving Out.
The Negroes of this city are making it known beyond a doubt that they look with disfavor on the proposed site for the Carnegie Library for colored people.
NATIONAL LEAGUE OF FERS OPPORTUNITY
OPPORTUNITIES FURNISHED FOR PROMISING CANIDATES IN SOCIAL WORK.
In order to enable promising candid dates, who wish to make social ser
At the meeting held by the Negro Board of Trade last week, when the chairman of the committee that was sent out to solicit subscriptions to be applied to the purchase of the library site, made an inflammatory speech that was misleading in many respects. The persistency of a few members of the Board of Trade to thrust down the throats of the people a thing they do not want is meeting with stubborn resistance. It is known by the supporters of the Twelfth Avenue and Hynds Street location that they are going against the will of the people, and in fact members of that committee have admitted that they themselves do not like the site, but with a seeming ambition to rule or ruin the leaders of the small faction have endeavored to create an impression that unless the Negroes accept the proposed site they will be deprived of the library. The commissioners with a few exceptions, are anxious to place the library where it will be pleasing to the colored people. There is only one of the commissioners who seems anxious to put it down in the bottom. That gentleman was at the meeting referred to above and in a characteristic speech landed himself to the skies but he made one clear in his remarks that he did not want to be worried with colored people any longer.
A deal was said in that meeting about graft and such things, but no one seemed to be excited about that; the people, however, are looking at both sides of the proposition, and are wondering if there is any graft anywhere, and if there is, who the guilty party is. The attention of the people has been attracted and their ears are to the ground and they are watching, and if the grafters are caught up with, woe will be unto them.
The committee that went out to raise $1,000 succeeded in doing so. This was due largely to the heroic efforts of Hon. A. N. Johnson. The people responded liberally to this appeal and they are being commended for it, and since they have responded and have shown by their liberality that they are interested in the library they are now asking the question if it is not fair to them that their wishes be considered and that the interest of the people be put above the personal ambition of any man or man. They know the committee from the Board of Trade who publicly expressed themselves in favor of the proposed site, do not favor it, and the opinion is gaining ground that selfishness is causing these people to make the steps they are taking. The impression is being made that the interest of the people has been entirely lost sight of and that a few have allowed themselves to be made a tool by individuals. The library is considered by the people a most valuable institution, and they desire to have it located in a section of the city that will make the building commendable, and where the people will patronize it.
The excitement that has been created will die out in a few days and the people are begging the Commissioners not to do a thing that will be an everlasting shame on Nashville. It has also been stated that if the library goes in this location that an effort will be made to put the High School there also. There seems to be a lowland element of Negroes who think that any hole or swamp is good enough for the rank and file, but who themselves would like the very best of everything.
A certain gentleman who is known to favor low lands for public institutions was told on the night of the powwow meeting that he had won a great victory. The statement has put the tongues to wagging. This low land swamp crowd is being spotted and their numbers taken. The people do not want this institution situated in an undesirable locality, as it would be both inconvenient to the patrons and a discredit to the city, and every effort will be put forth to induce the Commissioners to turn down the undesirable site, and it is believed the appeal of the ministers and the people will be heard.
Following is the petition of the people:
Hon. G. H. Baskette, Chairman, and
Members of the Carnegie Library
Commission, Gentlemen—

NATIONAL LEAGUE OF FERS OPPORTUNITY
Opportunities Furnished for Promising Canidates in Social Work.
In order to enable promising candidates, who wish to make social service a life work, the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes has made provisions for two classes of fellowships: (1) For executive supervision; (2) For training in institutional management. These fellowships are open to those who have made a definite declaration to engage in social work of some form approved by the Executive Board of the League. Such workers include secretaries of industrial betterment organizations, recreation and playground supervisors, superintendents an managers of orphan asylums, day nurseries, secretaries and executives in similar lines of social betterment. Candidates are limited to those who have graduated from a college of good standing or have an equivalent.
The fellows get their study and experience in New York City, studying at the New York School of Philanthropy with privileges of some courses at Columbia University, and engaging in practical social service activities under the auspices of the National League and in connection with the several agencies of the city.
The fellowships in executive supervision afford a cash stipend sufficient to cover for a period of ten months the necessary living expenses in New York City. Tuition is made as a loan. The fellowships in institutional management have been in co-operation with the New York Colored Orphan Asylum where the fellow resides and in which he spends that part of his time given to practical experience. The course of training at the Asylum is so arranged that he gets practical experience in the management of all parts of the institution, from the kitchen and laundry to the office and in the receiving and placing out of children. These fellowships furnish tuition, one-half of which is made as a loan without interest or time limit, and one-half paid outright, with sufficient cash to pay car fares incident to study and work. For applications and further conditions of the fellowships, those interested should write Dr. George E. Haynes, National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, 281 Fourth Avenue, New York City.
SCHOOL GIRLS GIVEN EMPLOY
MENT.
Madam Mabel Overton, a well-known milliner of this city, is doing much to encourage the young school girls. Few people ever realize the struggles that many unfortunate school girls have. They do not know that many girls have had to stop school and go to work to make a living for themselves and perhaps some of the rest of the family, thus depriving them of even a grammar school education. Such would have been the fate of one of the Pearl High School girls had it not been for the kindness of Mme. Overton, who employed this young girl to work for her after school hours, thus enabling her to have the advantage of a High School education, and at the same time earn a little money for herself.
Guthrie, Ky. April 15.—Mrs. A. B. Munday of Henderson, Ky., Grand Worthy Counsellor, was in town last Wednesday to meet the Order of the Court of Calanthe. On that night at Calloway's hall, she was entertained by the sisters of the Order. Mrs. Mundy delivered a short address, which was both interesting and instructive. Refreshments of all kinds were served. Mesdames Mary Clarence of St. Louis, Mo., Maggie Clarence of Chicago and Mr. Joe Warfield were here last week to attend the burial of their brother, Riley Warfield. Little Miss Geneva Sales spent Saturday and Sunday in Earlington, Ky., visiting relatives. Leslie Fort, who has been attending school in Nashville was called home on account of the serious illness of her father, Mr. Luke Fort. Mr. Wyatt Marshell who has been in Clarksville and vichity for several weeks is at home again. The services held at the Guildford Baptist Church Sunday by the A. F. and A. M. and the sisters of the O. E. S. were quite a success. A very interesting sermon was preached by Rev. P. D. Dennis to a large crowd of people.

DOCTORS MEET IN SEVENTH
SEMI-ANNUAL SESSION.
Large attendance coming from West Tennessee and West Kentucky Points, Special to the Globe,
Union City, Tenn., April 12.—The seventeenth semi-annual session of the West Tennessee and West Kentucky Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Society held a two-days' session in this week. The meeting was well attended and deep interest was manifested by each participant. Several papers were read, among them being the one by Dr. Rainey, or McKenzie, on "How to Minimize the Sufferings of Women." The discourse wasably rendered by Dr. Rainey and received favorable comment by the members of the society.
Dr. E. D. Walker is president and has labored earnestly to make the society a benefit to its members. Dr. Bryant Brown is another one of the moving spirits in the society. The people had an opportunity at this meeting to learn something of the struggles of the physician and it is evident that a better understanding was had between the people and the doctor. It is believed, from what could be learned, that the patronage of colored people to the colored physicians will be improved in the future, since the people have had an opportunity to come in contact with the physicians and learn their attitude toward the people and the uplift of the race.
MISS MOORE CLOSES SCHOOL
Quite an enjoyable time was spent Friday, April 11th at Hygela Springs at the closing exercises of Miss Daisy Moores' school.

The place elected for the next meeting was Pleasant Green Baptist Church. A committee of five was appointed to inform the people of what the organization is endeavoring to do. the chairman of the committee was Mr. D. W. Crutcher. President Johnson urged the members to greater activity. May 22, Clean-up Day in the bounds of the Union, promises to be a record-breaking event. Already the committee in charge of this work in formulating plans to make "Clean-up Day" a great success. It plans to have every outhouse clean and every back yard looking as inviting as the front. The white wash brush will play a conspicuous part in this matter.

LEXINGTON NOTES.
The Rev. S. M. Udley, M. D., D. D. of the M. E. Church, spent three days in our town last week looking after church business. He was well pleased as the church is progressing nicely with Rev. S. M. Carmichael as pastor Fourteen colored families were rendered homeless by the storm on the 15th of March, but they are all sheltered by the help of friends. The Rev. Peoples and his congregation have been welcomed to the M. E. church house as they lost theirs in the storm. His was the First Baptist Church, with the largest membership of any church in our town. Mrs. Ann Harmon is very sick. We pray for her early recovery. Mr. Young is some better. Only one colored person died from injuries caused by the storm. The M. E. church is planning a rally for the fourth Sunday in April. The money is to be used to put a new roof on the church. Rev. W. A. Marks, of the Second Baptist Church, is expected to preach at 3 o'clock p. m. The public is cordially invited to be present. The M. E. church is a very busy church on Sunday, as the Baptists hold Sunday-school at 9:30 a.m. and the Methodists hold Sunday-school at 2:30 p. m. God be praised for the Christian union that exists between Baptists and Methodists in Lexington.
WAVERLY NOTES
The people of this little city were pleasantly surprised last Friday over what proved to be an unusual occurrence. To tell what this occurrence was it is only necessary to relate the following: Thursday, April 3rd, Prof P. P. Whitson, principal of the Waverly City School, accompanied by Rev A. C. Smith, pastor of Salter's Church A. M. E. Church, left the city with out even intimating their destination or the object of their sudden departure. Later it was learned that they were met at Johnsonville by Miss Ada D. Benton, of Savannah, Tenn. The party, which had been augmented by several others, now went to the home of Mrs. Robert Lewis, where Prof Whitson and Miss Benton were quietly married. Rev Smith officiated. The bride and groom spent the evening and part of the next day at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lewis, where they were the recipients of many congratulations from their friends. Friday, April 4th, the party returned to Waverly and were entertained at Mrs. Philus's where they were served a very sumptuous dinner
Prof. Whitson has won many friends here and all wish him and wife a pleasant voyage through life. Mrs. Whitson will be pleasantly received by citizens here. Hannah Lee Summers fell from a cross tie pile where she had gotten to see the parade of Kit Carson's show. She was rendered unconscious and bruised about the face, but has fully recovered. Mrs. Emma Price, Mrs. Andy Price, Miss Lucy and C. W. Summers were called to the bedside of Mr. Cabret Adams, of Judy Branch. They found their uncle living in a neighborhood of intelligent and Christian color people. He appeared to be better after seeing his kidnied. Mr. Hurley Collier, who was slightly cut by a drunken white man show day, didn't miss a meal. It has been rumored that he was badly hurt, which isn't true. Mr. Adolphus Lomax was badly bruised and it is reported that he has a broken limb. An automobile turned over on him and two white gentlemen. All of the sick are better.
DAYTON NOTES

Mathes last Sunday, accompanied by Dr. J. W. Wood. Also Mrs. Gauss, of South Dayton was visiting Mrs. A. W. Mathes last Sunday. Mr. Sam Roberson, of Virginia, was quietly married to Miss Maggie Cusby, of Rockwood, Tenn., last Monday, Rev. J. T. Thornton officiating. The happy couple are at their new home on Red Row. Mr. Eli Brown, formerly of Dayton, at this time working at Graysville, Tenn., was visiting homefolks last Sunday. Prof. C. H.
"Wanted a good cooker," that was all our Superintendents had in mind when they started to make the National Steel Range.
First of all, it was to cook all manner of delicacies right and of course after that was accomplished we wanted to make a range that would last as long as possible.
The best cooks of Nashville agree on naming the National as the best steel range to buy.
It costs less to begin with, less to keep up and lasts longer.
These essential points backed by Phillip & Buttorff Manufacturing Company, make it a very safe investment for you to buy a National.
Powell, our city teacher, is preparing his closing exercises. Prof Powell with the aid of the Misses Franklin, his assistants, has done a great work here in our city and deserves much credit. Mrs. Bell Washington was visiting Mrs. Lucinda Coleman last Saturday in Morgantown. Master Velton Thornton is spending this week in Morgantown with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Lee. Mr. Thomas Mitchell, of Blanch, Tenn., who took suddenly ill with cramps early last Friday morning, died Friday in the afternoon about two o'clock. He will be buried Monday morning. His relatives being unable to send for his remains he will be buried in this city at the City Cemetery. Mrs. Lizzie Martin, of Jewel street, was a welcome visitor at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church last Sunday. Mrs. Lucy Bass, from Jewel street, was shopping in our city last Saturday at the D. C. & I. Store. Mrs. Will Mays, who has been indisposed, is abl eto be out again.

KEELING NOTES
Master John R. McBride, the little six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. McBride, departed this life Wednesday morning, April 9. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. M. J. Nelson. His remains were interred in the Greenfield Cemetery. Little John R. leaves a father and mother, relatives and a host of friends. It is quite surprising to know the sympathy and friendship that little John R. had won from both white and colored, all of which was demonstrated during his six months of illness. He had every possible need supplied while here on earth, yet God saw fit to gather him home to himself.
Asleep in Jesus blessed sleep
From which none ever wake to weep;
Unbroken by the last of foes.
A
A warm and undisturbed repose. The parents wish to thank the many friends of both races for the kindnesses shown them during the long illness of their little son. It cannot be soon forgotten. Rev. M. J. Nelson left Wednesday evening for Ackerman, Miss., to attend the spring meeting of the Birmingham Presbytery, of which he is a member. The Masonic and Eastern Star lodges had their anniversary services last Sunday in the Keeling Baptist Church. The sermon was preached by the efficient pastor, Rev. A. Hurbert. In spite of the indecency of the weather the building was crowded.
TULLAHOMA NOTES
Last Sunday was a gloomy day but large preparations were made for the big baptizing, and at 1:30 near five hundred people assembled at the waterside. Fifty people, women and children, were buried in baptism by Rev. J. S. Swift. This is the result of the meeting that was conducted at the Mt. Zion Church two weeks ago by Rev. H. M. Burns, one of the greatest preachers in the state, Rev. G. T. Speak, of Chattanooga, was the guest of Rev. N. B. Morton last Saturday. Mrs. Bettie Hurt entertained Rev. Burns and Rev.

TULLAHOMA NOTES.
Rev. Burns Held a Successful Revival
in Tullahoma at Mt. Zlon
Baptist Church.
On last Monday at 11:45 Rev. H. M. Burns, the pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church of Nashville, arrived in our town accompanied by Rev. J. S. Swift, the pastor. They went directly to the residence of Deacon E. H. Brooks, where a great dinner had been prepared for them, and at 3:30 they attended the mission at the home Mrs. I. B. Farris, where a great lesson was taught. The religious principle was put before the people by Rev. Burns, who is a pulpit orator and a man sent from a God to preach the gospel. On Monday night the revival began as from the Gospel preached by this man for the five nights he preached, 47 souls had been converted to Christ and added to the church. This is the greatest revival that has been held in Tullahoma for forty-cd years. Men and women, girls and boys were joining and coming to Christ on the streets and at their homes. The church is revived, spiritually and financially. Rev. Swift can have a smooth sail for the next year to come. The revival is still going on and on next Sunday the greatest baptizing for forty years will be conducted by Rev. Swift. Next Sunday at 1:30 on 50 candidates will be baptized. Everybody is cordially invited. This is expected to be the greatest day in Tullahoma for years. Wartrace, Winchester, Decherd and Estill Spring are asked to turn out to this great baptism next Sunday.

The club held its anniversary at the home of Mr. J. H. Stockard, on last Friday night. Special interest centered in the fact, that it was the first held at the home. The revival of a stirring scene, the heroism of the past, which was brought out with such force and affectionate paths in the program rendered, clearly illustrates the fact that nothing lives like memory and affection. Mr. H. J. Stockard was master of ceremonies. The exercises opened with the grand old song, Portuguese Hymn; prayer by H J. Stockard; introduction of the club by E. P. Bond; president; selection by Quartette; original poetry by club poet; solo by M. F. Douglass; essay—Basis of Literary Education by M. Dobbins; address by Mr. Sanders. Secretary of Colored Y. M. C. A.; good night by Quartet; remarks by the master of ceremonies. The address delivered by Mr. Sanders was indeed an inspiration and all those that heard him will never forget his address. He emphasized the importance and necessity of a knowledge of faith and love and the history is the source of foundation; the inspiration of all our club work. Prof. R. Harris, made a brief talk and gave some pathetic boyhood recollections. He said, "We have much to be proud of although we have not won a victory." Let every member be present at the next meeting. Visitors welcome.

CONGRESS DELEGATES FROM
COSTA RICA.
Among the announcement handed out from the Sunday-School Congress headquarters was one of a deal of interest because of the importance attached to the individual. It was stated this week by Rev. Henry A. Boyd, Secretary of the Sunday-School Congress, that he had received assurances that Rev. Wm. Forde, pastor of the leading Baptist Church at Port Limon, Costa Rica, would be in attendance at the Sunday-School Congress. Rev. Boyd stated that the Rev. Mr. Forde would come direct to New Orleans from Costa Rica, from New Orleans he would come to Nashville in time to join the special train party that is to leave for Muskegue. Much has been said of Rev. Forde because of his ability as a scholar and a minister. He is a product of Oxford and is regarded as the leading exponent of right and justice in Central America. After the Congress adjourns he plans to return to Nashville to be the guest of Dr. R. H. Boyd, who it is said, hopes to give him an op

THE SUNDAY-SCHOOL UNION
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
The acting pastor, Rev. Tate, together with the superintendent of the Sunday-school, and the Metoka and Galadia workers made every possible preparation for a large attendance, which really materialized. The theme under discussion was "The Duty of the Parent to the Sunday-School." In announcing the subject, Chairman T. J. Lewis stated that those assigned to lead were unavoidably detained and called on Rev. Henry A. Boyd to open the discussion. He was followed by Mr. J. P. Porter, of the Spruce Street Baptist Church, and Miss Grace Eaton, of the Fireside cSchool.
At this meeting the Union decided that the forty odd churches in the city, with their pastors, superintendents and Sunday-school forces would rally around the Sunday-School Jubilee celebration to be held at the Majestic Theatre Sunday, May 11th. The committee, in making its report to the Union, stated that the features of the day would be a mammoth street parade in which four thousand Sunday-school children, with their superintendents and teachers, led by two or Nashville's leading brass bands, the I. O. I. and the National Baptist, would be foremost. The line of march was not recommended by the committee, but the place of meeting, the Majestic Theatre, with the announcement of a chorus of two hundred voices, were a part of their report. The report was enthusiastically received and adopted.
Chairman Lewis announced that the next meeting of the Sunday-School Union would be held in connection with the Sunday-School Jubilee at the Majestic Theatre.

WARNING TO COTTON GROWERS.
By E. J. Watson, President Southern
Cotton Congress.
Cotton growers of the South have
passed through two of the most try-
ing years in the history of cotton. At
this time last year those who have
been in the forefront of the fight to
maintain a living price for cotton
against abnormal conditions, made
possible by American and Foreign
methods, which as yet are permitted
to exist, were bending every energy
to bring about a reduction of acreage,
or at least to preventing an increase
of acreage. Conditions following the
huge crop of 1911, and hard work
made this possible. The price on the
crop just harvested was kept steady.
A more serious situation confronts you now and hence this word of warning. With the price of the 1912 crop remaining fairly good and steady all the season through, the argument of the manipulators will be that the cotton farmer of the South will yield to temptation and do as he has done hundreds of times before—plant more acreage to cotton, on the assumption that the price will stay up. This expectation you have justified in the past and it will be used from the start. Under present laws and established methods, though the world demand be for a crop possibly larger than fourteen and one-half million bales, I want to say to you it will be suicidal to increase your acreage. It is more important to hold yourself and your acreage in check this year than ever before. To yield to the temptation of an increased price this season will be equivalent to proving yourself devoid of even common sense.
The planting season is upon us, now. Stop and think for a day or two before you listen to the siren song of thirteen cents. The danger to you and yours is greater by far
than last year. If you must have a larger acreage on your farm, put the increase in corn and other food crops. As one who has striven to aid you in the hour of need, and has, been faithful to the trust imposed in him, let me entreat you to hold your acreage down and prove to the world that you are not obligated to rush in and do what every cotton broker in New York, Liverpool and elsewhere expects you to do for your own undoing and the enrichment of others. In this State I have endeavored to get the General Assembly to enact a simple cotton statistic gathering law that will force facts on the world when they should be there—not when it is too late; this measure, which would aid in some degree, is not yet a law. Oklahoma already has it, and your organizations have all asked for it in every cotton State.
Again let me beg of you to watch your acreage, and let good sense instead of lack of judgment guide you in the planting of your crop this year. If you don't you will face in the Fall a situation that may be the most serious you have eve raced. If you don't do your part now, don't say then that you were not warned. The fight for justice to America's greatest money crop cannot be won by a few men year after year; it must command the personal co-operation of every grower of cotton.

PROGRAM COMMITTEE TO MEET
HERE.
It is announced that the probabilities are that the Program Committee of the National Baptist Convention will meet in this city the latter part of May or the early part of June to arrange the program for the coming session of their Convention which is to be held in this city in September. It has not been the custom, however, of the committee to meet in the city where the Convention is to be held. But a communication from Dr. E. C. Morris, the president of the Convention, announcing that this step was taken in view of the fact that the program committee desires to make and formulate arrangements for every detail of the program that would conserve the interest of the ten thousand delegates expected in Nashville during the Convention. If the Program Committee convenes in Nashville, it will bring together practically the entire Executive Committee of the Baptists of the country, consisting of the secretary, R. B. Hudson, Selma; the treasurer, Dr. A. J. Stokes, of Montgomery; the statistician, Rev. S. W. Bacote, of Kansas City; the editor, Rev. Robert Mitchell, of Bowling Green, Ky.; the four assistant secretaries, Rev. E. R. McDowell, of St Paul; Rev. E. Arlington Wilson, of Kansas City; T. O. Fuller, of Memphis, and J. M. Codwell, of Houston Texas, with the chairmen and secretaries of the seven Boards, the vice president at large, Rev. W. G. Parks
of Philadelphia, with the vice president from each of the several state and territorial conventions. It was given out at the Publishing House this week that the meeting of the Program Committee would perhaps be as largely attended as the meeting of the Executive Committee at Tuskegee in January. President Morris is expected to have a communication here this week or the early part of next week stating what date the committee meeting is to be held.
$6000 In One Day for Education
$6000 In One Day for Education
To the Baptists of the State of Tennessee and elsewhere, and to the public and friends of education, irrespective of denomination, the following appeal is made: The American Baptist Home Mission Society, of New York, has set aside $14,000 to assist in building a Boys' Dormitory at Roger Williams University, Nashville, Tenn., on condition that the people of Tennessee raise $6,000, which amount must be in hand before work on the proposed dormitory can be commenced.
There is not enough room to accommodate the young men attending school this session, and this is the reason that this appeal, by the order of the Board of Trustees of Roger Williams University, is being made to Baptists and all other people as well to respond financially to this dormitory project. The fifth Sunday in June, 1913, is set apart as the day to raise the $6,000. We are asking, and most earnestly too, that five thousand Baptists of the State give ONE DOLLAR each, all former students $5 each, and all graduates of Roger Williams University to give not less than $10 each.
Pastors and churches are requested to form clubs of twenty-five to fifty members who will send us from one to two dollars each on or before the fifth Sunday in June.
Let the pastors of Nashville, for the sake of the school, take the lead in this matter. Let the Baptist denomination in Tennessee rise to the dignity of the occasion and contribute by pledging to give on rally day $100. Any amount given by any the six thousand dollars needed to begin and erect the Boy's Dormitory. Let all Christians pray for financial success on that day.
Rev. Robert Page, pastor of Mt. Gilead Baptist Church, heads the list friend will be gladly received and faithfully appropriated.
All money must be sent to Rev. Wm. Haynes, D. D., Missionary and Educational Secretary for Tennessee.

(1) It is in a section of the city that is being rapidly populated by white people who work for the railroads.
(2) The great westward trend of the white population is fast creating a demand in that section for automobile garages and other business sites.
(3) The colored ministers and people are unanimously in favor of a more central location. Cedar street between Seventh and Eighth avenues, or Fifth avenue, between Cedar and Gay streets, we consider ideal locations.
(4) The approach to the proposed site would be most inconvenient from any of the sections of the city where colored people live. If from the south, east or north, they would
have to either approach across the Church street viaduct or Cedar street. One is isolated and unprotected, and the other is infested with the very toughest element that hang around the saloons. Coming from the northwest the same conditions obtain. (5) The vicinity of Twelfth avenue and Hynes street is in close proximity to a most disreputable locality, namely, that immediately under and adjacent to the viaduct. This would make it unsafe for women and children to go to and from the library. For these reasons and many other reasons we beg you not to locate the library for colored people on the proposed site.
STEVENSON (ALA.) NOTES
Again the summons to come up higher has been heard in our community. On April 10, 1913, Mrs. Kate Smith was called to the home not made with hands eternal in the heavens. For months she was a patient, hopeful sufferer. Up until her death she grew stronger in faith of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. She was a member of the M. E. church and Household of Ruth. She was one of our tireless, earnest and deeply consecrated workers. To her the life of man consisted not in seeing visions and dreaming dreams, but in active charity and willing service. Personal responsibility weighed upon her, and she wished to live, feeling there was much for her to do. But in perfect submission and with songs upon her lips she bade farewell to this life and all that was dear to her and said with a loving voice, "Come welcome death, I will gladly go with thee." The funeral services were attended by Rev. P. P. Wright, her pastor, and she was laid away Friday afternoon in the Corgile Cemetery, to mourn sons, daughters and friends to mourn their loss. The Globe joins in sympathy for the beaved family. Mrs. Ola Rudder, her oldest daughter. Mrs. Ola Rudder, her mother until death. The members and friends of Morning Star M. B. Church celebrated their one hundredth anniversary of David Livingstone, the first missionary to Africa, last Sunday, Mrs. Nina E. Dittia was the manager of the celebration which was nicely carried out in the presence of a packed house. An entertainment was given last Saturday night in honor of Rev. W. C. Daniel to help defray his expenses to the conference which will convene in Huntsville. A nice sum of money was realized and the entertainment was conducted by the members of the Christian Endeavor. Mrs. Daisy B. Jones, who spent several days in Riehland City, Tenn., returned home last Friday. Her children were delighted to visit their grandfather and grandmother at Richard City. Miss Annie Daniels returned home after the closing of her school at Hollywood, Ala., finding herself joining the faithful Christian workers in her community to carry on the good work for Christ and humanity. She said a teacher and leader should never be idle, for there is always something for them to do toward elevating our people.
FUNERAL OF BEULAH LEE
HOWARD
The funeral of Beulah Lee Howard was held at St. John A. M. E. Church
Friday, April 11. The funeral was preached by Dr. T. W. Stephens, pastor of Scovel Street A. M. E. Church. The funeral of St. John was master of ceremonies.
The casket was buried in a bed of flowers, showing the high esteem in which Beulah Lee Howard was held by her friends. The various schools and the church were represented by the following pall bearers. Sunday-school: Ida Pillow, Ruth Upshaw, Mary Ewing, Samuella Anderson; State Normal: Threehart Wharton, Ethel Johnson; Pearl High School: Cerelia Brown and Mattie Moore. They marched in ahead of the procession, the State Normal girls carrying a beautiful design of a heart and a dove. Prof. J. W. Work sang "Lead Kindly Light." Dr. J. W. Sexton led in prayer; the choir gang "Bear the Cross;" the obituary was read by Dr. Stephens, who took for his text Eph. 4:14. He said: "Those who live in Jesus have no trouble in going to sleep in him, and that the life of Beulah Lee Howard was one that testified to mankind that she had lived in Jesus." He preached a beautiful sermon and showed that the life of the deceased was one worthy of emulation.
Dr. Porter, pastor of the church, and Dr. J. C. Caldwell made brief remarks. Beulah Lee Howard was the daughter of Rev. S. L. Howard, who was at one time pastor of St. John A. M. E. Church, but who is now the Connectional Secretary of the Evangelistic Bureau of his church. When he received the news that his little daughter was sick he was in St. Louis, water bound, and in order to reach Nashville had to go by the way of Indianapolis, Ind. He succeeded however in reaching here before his dear little daughter passed into the Great Beyond.
