SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONGRESS.
Muskogee, Okla., June 4th—White duck caps, Congress pennants, with those of organized Sunday-school classes, badges, buttons and flying banners marked the auspicious opening of the Eighth Annual Session of the Sunday-School Congress of the National Baptist Convention, which was called to order in this city at 2:00 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The enthusiastic Sunday-school workers, the hospitable and big-hearted citizenship of Muskogee, with teeming thousands that are joining in the Sunday-school Forward Movement, make the Eighth Annual Session already more far-reaching in its influence for good upon the Sunday-school world than any of its predecessors. The delegates who could take advantage of the special rates for the occasion granted by the railroads companies, came from every section of the United States.
There were special parties, special coaches and in several instances special Sunday-School Congress trains from Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, the West and Middle West. Notable among these specials to arrive in Muskogee was the train bearing the officials of the Sunday-School Congress with the Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina Virginia, New York, Florida and Mississippi and Eastern delegates. It was known as the "Official Sunday-School Congress Train," and was composed of standard sleepers and day coaches with all of their conveniences. The cars were decorated with long streamers bearing the words "Sunday School Congress, Muskogee June 4-9." When the train pulled into the station it was met by the most magnificent reception committee in the history of the New West. This committee under the auspices of the Baptist Ministers' Conference, consisting of all of the leading pastors of the city, demonstrated the genuine big-heartedness of the people of Oklahoma. There was at the Station, arrayed in Congress caps, a chorus consisting of two hundred and fifty-two voices with superb music. They sang "Hail the Baptist Congress" as
DR. E. C. MORRIS PAYS VISIT
DROPED IN TO LOOK OVER THE GROUND
Is the President of the National Baptist Convention—Left for Program Committee Meeting in Memphis—Could Tell About National Seminary—Would Not Commit Himself on Subject.
After spending a very busy day in the city in the interest of the coming National Baptist Convention, the Rev. E. C. Morris, D. D., of Helena, Ark., President of the National Baptist Convention, left Wednesday night for Memphis, Tennessee to be present at the Program Committee meeting of his Convention, which held a session there Thursday. While here Dr. Morris took advantage of the opportunity to see some of the Commencement exercises of Roger Williams University. He was a student in this school many years ago. The principal object of his visit, as was learned by a Globe reporter, was to look into the arrangements that Nashville is making for the entertainment of the Semi-Centennial and Denominational Jubilee during the month of September. The better part of Wednesday was spent in looking over the conveniences at the
REV. E. C. MORRIS,
Helena, Ark.,
President of the National Baptist Convention, which is to hold Semi-Centennial Celebration Jubilee in this city next September.
Ryman Auditorium as pertaining to all the city and delegates in various parts and the accommodations to be afforeder at Greenwood Park for this celebration. As far as could be learned from the President of the Baptist Convention, the plan adopted at their meeting in Tuskegee will be pushed vigorously. It is the purpose of the Baptists to have from one to three commissioners or representatives from each of their state and territorial conventions to collect exhibits showing the physical growth of their denomination, as well as the achievements of the race since the slaves were emancipated. The President would not give out very much of the plans, saying that the whole matter would perhaps be gone over at the meeting in Memphis, and that the program would be made up at this meeting, after which a full announcement of the plans would be offered to the newspapers throughout the United States. He was noncommittal upon the National Theological Seminary question, as thankful that the Southern Baptists had decided to contribute liberally to the education of the Negro minister. He is quoted as saying he did not know what action the Educational Board of his Convention would take relative to the matter of location of the Seminary at Louisville rather than Nashville, which was chosen by his Convention, as the proper sight, in their session at Memphis, Tennessee some years ago. When asked as to what the probable attendance to the Convention would be, he stated that much of this would depend upon the rate given by the railroads, as well as the activities of the Nashville people in offering their homes for the entertainment of the visitors. But that 20,000 was a conservative estimate. It was learned while Dr. Morris was in the city that Philadelphia with the Emancipation Celebration Committee had not altogether withdrawn their invitation for the National Convention to meet with them, but that the chances for change of the convention at this late date seemed very slim.

PROF. POINDEX-
TER DEAD
PROF. POINDEX-
TER DEAD
WAS A MEMBER OF FACULTY AT FISK UNIVERSITY
Was Operated on Saturday and Died Tuesday—Had Been at Fisk Four Years—Graduated from Ohio University and Cornell—Made Specialty of Agriculture and Biology—Blow to Fisk.
Chas. C. Poindexter, who was Professor of the Agriculture department and Biology at Fisk University, died at Hubbard Hospital shortly after 12 o'clock Tuesday morning. He was operated on by Drs. Stewart and Welker Saturday and made good progress until an unfavorable change came Sunday afternoon, resulting in complications and ending in his death.
Prof. Poindexter was born in West Virginia March 10, 1880; he was a graduate from the Ohio State University in 1903 and did post graduate work for two years at Cornell University, where his excellent work in the department of Agriculture and his congenial nature made him popular with both faculty and students. During his residence at Cornell he paid his expenses by acting as secretary to Prof. Hunt, of Cornell, who has more than once given warm testimony of the efficient service he rendered as stenographer and secretary. In the preface of three text books of Agriculture, which Prof. Hunt published, he acknowledges large obligations to his work as secretary in the gathering or valuable material for the publication. Upon completion of his work at Cornell he became director of Agriculture work for both St. Paul School at Lawrenceburg, Va., and St. Augustine School, at Raleigh, N. C., under the Episcopal Church. From there he was called to Flask University four years ago as assistant professor of Agriculture and Biology. In recognition of his efficiency and character, two years ago he was elevated to full professorship.
During his entire time of his connection with Fisk, Prof. Polindexter was a member of the Prudential Committee, a governing body of the University, and served on a number of the principle faculty committees. He was especially interested and active in the athletic side of student life and the success of many of these affairs in the past four years has been due to his uniting effort. It is not too much to say that the enjoyable and successful Spring Day which was inaugurated on the 25th of April was que largely to his inspiration and planning.
His untimely death is considered a severe shock to his many friends that he has made both in the University and among the citizens generally. Universally among the faculty and students at the University he was beloved for his brotherly spirit and cheerful disposition.
During his residence at Cornell he married Miss Florence Mercedes, of Ithica, N. Y., March 31, 1905. A son was born to them in the summer of 1909. These two with three sisters and a brother survive him.
In a letter to his wife written just before the operation he left some directions for th funeral services, making a request that there be a simple scripture and song service, led by the University pastor, Rev. O. W. Morrell, and assisted by Rev. W. S. Ellington.
The funeral was held Thursday morning at 9 o'clock in Fisk Memorial Chapel, and the remains were in interred at the Greenwood Cemetery. The following young men of Fisk stint body acted as pall-bearers: Messrs. Nelson Glover, Raymond Powell, Chas, Lewis, Overton Carter, Atwood Wilson and Henry Ferguson.
ACADEMY OF THE IMMACULATE
MOTHER CLOSES SESSION.
The Academy of the Immaculate Mother, a school for the education for Negro girls, closed its regular session with interesting exercises Tuesday night after a very successful term. An operetta, "Cinderella in Flower Land," and a light drama, "Katheleen, or the Cost of a Promise," were features of the program rendered in a highly commendable way. Following the programme Father Plunket, Father Murphy and Father Parker assisted in conferring the honors and medals. Father Parker made a few appropriate remarks in commendation of the work done at the school and of his personal satisfaction in the rendition of the program, closing with words of praise for the sisters who worked so faithfully to make the occasion possible. Those on whom the honors were conferred follow:
Grammar School certificate, Josephine Leftwich; gold medals, domestic science, Mary Partee; domestic art, Annie Patterson; Christian doctrine, Martha Caldwell.
Medals were awarded for punctuality to Ailene Dodson, Lillian B. Cooper, Sarah Bell Jordan and John Jordan; for deportment, Marion Bryant, Emma D. Brooks, Mary Partee, Sadie M. Cole, Josephine Leftwich, Mary Ewing and Carrie Williams.
SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONGRESS
OFF TO MUSKOGEE---SPECIAL TRAIN
OUT FROM NASHVILLE
Cheers Go Up from Spectators—Five Coaches and Baggage Make Up the Train—Trip to Memphis Over the N. & C.—National Baptist Band Adds Life to the Occasion—Great Crowds Attracted.
At high noon Monday the train with the delegates to the Baptist Sunday-School Congress which is in session at Muskogee, Okla., this week, pulled out from the Union Station amid the cheers of a throng of spectators who had gathered at the Union Station to say farewell, and the strains of music played by the National Baptist Band.
It was a gala day in the annals of the Sunday-school workers. The host led on by Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, Secretary of the Congress, was a happy crowd and yet not unmindful of the fact that they were going on an important errand. Some of the leading men and women of Nashville and other parts of the state made up the party. Men and women who have spent years of active Sunday-school work will realize that in order to keep up with the times they must from time to time take advantage of the opportunity offered by the Sunday-School Congress to study improved methods.
The band accompanied the delegates as far as Memphis. The trip was made over the N. & C. railroad and at every stop there were crowds to give the delegates a new send-off. At nearly every point some were added to the number, and by the time they reached Memphis every seat in the cars had been taken. A great demonstration was made in the city on the bluff. The band led by Prof. Lindsey made the welkin ring in old Memphis and the people of that city took off their hats to these musicians from Nashville.
Editor Roscoe Simmons, of the Memphis Sun, was on hand and took charge of the band manager and his whole crew. He did everything to make it pleasant for them while in the Bluff City and saw to it that the band boys were made to feel at home, every one who knows Mr. Simmons knows that this is a part of his nature. He believes in making everything cheerful for all who come in touch with him.
The delegates, after spending a short while in Memphis continued their journey on to the Congress. There were several delegates left in Nashville, among them Prof. S. P. Harris, Superintendent of the First Baptist Sunday-School, and Mrs. N. H. Plus, one of the officials of the Congress. Mr. D. A. Hart, editor of the Nashville Globe, was also left. Just es this party reached the Union Station the Congress train was seen passing under the Church street vaduct, with her streamers dying to the breezes. Tears came into the eyes of those that were left and they stood with their mouths wide open in the middle of Broad street, trying to stop the train. The tardy delegates caught the 2:15 train and had the pleasure of making the journey alone to Muskegue.
In the future when Secretary Boyd announces that his train will leave at 12 o'clock, or whatever hour is stated, those who intend to go will know that he means just what he says and will be ontime.
The Sunday-School Congress convened Wednesday morning and will continue until the 9th. A great meeting this will be. Many of the Sunday-school worksrls will be in attendance, and great good will be accomplished.

FOURTEEN SPECIAL CARS TO
GREENWOOD
Wednesday evening several of the public schools wended their way to Greenwood Park in open cars to have an annual outing with the colored children and teachers. There were thousands of young people who enjoyed the pleasant breezes of Greenwood on this day, happy that school days were over and that they were entering into a season of pleasure.
Clifton, Asheraft, Hadley and Knowles Schools participated in the celebration. The long string of fourteen double-truck cars presented an attractive scene as they rolled through the streets of the city in an unbroken stream. They stretched several blocks. All eyes were turned to this great string of cars but the children soon let the people know they were in charge of the situation, and as they lifted their voices in cheerful glee, hands were waving bidding them a day of happiness.
Greenwood Park was literally covered with little feet and they had a great day.
Mr. Louis K. Thomas, foreman of the composing room of the National Baptist Publishing House, is sick at his home, Heffernan street.

38th YEAR SUC- CESSFUL ONE
FOR AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL COLLEGE AT NORMAL
Thirty-three Graduates Receive Diplomas from the Various Departments—Rural Schools Center of Discussion—Rev. Cavin Preached Annual Sermon—Hospital Work a Special Feature.
Special to the Globe.
Normal, Aka., May 30.—The 38th annual commencement of the Agricultural and Mechanical College, of which Prof. Walter S. Buchanan is president, has just closed what is to all intents and purposes the breaking year in the history of that famous institution. After four years of his administration, Pro. Buchanan is able to present Normal to the public in much of the same glory and popularity it enjoyed in the best days of its founder, the well-known William H. Councill.
Fifteen young people received diplomas from the Normal or academic department, and eighteen from the various trade divisions. All of the graduating exercises centered in a discussion of the rural school; each speaker from the salutatorian to the valedictorian taking part in the symposium of the subject.
Increased interest in rural school education for Negroes was heightened by the fact that every subject was illustrated by actual demonstration. "Plans for the Rural School" was the subject of the salutatory presented by Joseph W. Falls, who exhibited a model school house containing a cooking room, a sewing room and two cloak rooms. Three other graduates, William Fennoy, James H. Herbert and James H. Hunter, demonstrated "Building a House." "Plastering a School House" and "Painting a School House," respectively, each doing the actual work before the audience.
"Sewing in the Rural Schools" was undertaken by Rosalyn V. Harris, while Elias J. Murdock took for his subject "The School Farm as a Means of Extending the School Term." Rosa Belle Black, in demonstrating "Cooking in the Rural School," prepared an appetizing lunch for six at an itemized cost of seventy-five cents.
On account of the inability of Rev. Richard Carroll to be present and deliver the annual address, Rev. R. S. Cavin, pastor of the First Baptist Church (white) of Huntsville, Ala., spoke to the graduates and emphasized the importance of loyalty to self, to others and to their religious creeds. "No matter what your life's calling may be," said Dr. Cavin, "make up your mind that you are going to grasp every opportunity that comes your way." He commented upon the advantages of the kind of education given in a school like Normal where young people are not only educated but trained, and declared among other things: "The plan of work proposed in this school is ideal. It is not possible to overestimate the worth of an institution like this."
The commencement exercises began Friday night, when the exercises of the Nurse Training Department were held with an address by Dr. Willis E. Sterrs, of Decatur. The nurse training department at Normal offers superior advantages for young women, being comfortably housed in the new Virginia McCormick Hospital, of which Dr. W. L. Councill is Surgeon-in-Chief. The hospital contains two public and five private wards, nurse's quarters, physician's office, operating room and sterilizing room, a kitchen and three bath rooms, and is the best appointed hospital for Negroes in this section of the country.
Saturday night Dorsey E. Payne, of Ashburn, Ga., won the first prize of fifteen dollars, and Armolia Whitfield, of Clarksville, Tenn., won the second prize of ten dollars in the annual prize speaking contest. Dr. R. S. Cavin preached the Baccalaureate Sermon Sunday morning, followed by the annual address before the religious societies by President Buchanan, at night. The annual musicae was held Monday night under the direction of Mrs. Ida C. Buchanan, Oscar W. Adams, editor of the Birmingham Reporter, delivered the annual address Tuesday night.
For the first time since the death oi, former President William H. Council, a representative attendance of the graduates of the institution was had at the commencement exercises. In view of the large amount of improvements that had been made and the good work being done by President Buchanan, active steps were taken by the Association to guarantee to President Buchanan substantial support of the Alumni.
MRS. FLIMISTER IN THE CITY.
Mrs. J. T. Flimister, of Hopkinsville, Ky., is in the city, the guest of Prof. and Mrs. Benton. of 1213 Eleventh avenue, North. Mrs. Flimister is here with her husband, Dr. J. T. Flimister, who came here for a slight operation.

FARMINGTON NOTES.
The spring term of public school closed on the 23rd ult. This has been a very successful term. The attendance was far above the average. Three young ladies were awarded certificates of completion of 'the Primary Course: Misses Bettie L. Smiley, Callie M. Hightower and Ella V. Duncan were the happy recipients. One of the grandest social events of the season was a social given in honor of Prof. J. B. Jones at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Z. Boren, on the Chapel Hill road, last Friday night. The reception room was beautifully decorated with cut flowers. Mrs. Boren was assisted in receiving by Mesdames Orr and Rucker. Early in the evening the guests began to arrive and every one enjoyed himself till the wee small hours of the night. Music and games are the special features of the evening. At half-past ten all were invited into the dining-room and served to a three-course menu. Pink and white were the prevailing colors. The out-of-town guest was Rev. A. Ransom, of Shelbyville. At a late hour all took their nightage, wishing Mr. and Mrs. Boren many years of life. On Thursday night last the M. E. Church here under the pastorate of Rev. H. W. Rucker opened its May festival. A packed house was had. Among the special features of the entertainment were the addresses of Rev. Ruch, Prof. J. B. Jones and Rev G. W. Marsh. We are proud to say that our people here are progressing nicely, farming. The late rains have revived vegetable growth, and crops are in splendid condition. Among our most industrious and ergal farmers might be mentioned the Smith brothers, Mr. Z. Boren, Mr James Laws, Will Holt and the Dryden brothers. These gentlemen are wide awake farmers. Some of them have some fine stock and will put up a good exhibition at our county this fall. Quite a number of our people accompanied the baseball team from here to McKenzie last Saturday The S. B. S. returned victorious, the score being 5 to 4, in favor of F. B. S. It was a hard fought game from start to finish.

MOOREVILLE NOTES
Last Saturday on Fitzpatrick Field was played one of the best games of baseball ever played here. The strong
team of Farmington defeated McKenzie baseball nine by the small margin of 5 to 4. Only four weeks before McKenzie defeated Farmington team 14 to 4. Saturday's game was one of the hardest fought games ever witnessed here. The game was replete with good pitching, free from wrangling and argument. Batteries for McKenzie, Wilkes and Holt; for Farmington, Edison and Mayfield. Perhaps there are no two teams in the county more friendly disposed toward each other than these two teams. Farmington has a strong team and is composed of a bunch of jolly good fellows. Rev. A. Whitworth preached a very practical and instructive sermon at McKenzie Chapei last Sunday. Mr. Cornelius Jones is on the sick list, but is not seriously sick.
CLARKSVILLE NOTES

She served for years as missionary to Africa, and since that time has been engaged in teaching Bible holiness throughout the North and East, her work being mostly among the white people of that section, who greatly reverence her for her Bible knowledge and practical common-sense talks. She is no crank in the common way of speaking. She is founder of the Amanda Smith Orphanage, at Chicago, a flourishing in situation which she has founded in her declining years to leave as a memorial to her name. The good sister has been spending the winter in Florida, and returning home will stop to spend a few days with her old friends, Rev. and Mrs. Graham Come and hear her Sunday night Miss Minnie Hatcher returned home last Friday from Normal, Ala., where she graduated with honors.
PULASKI NOTES
Great preparations are being made here to entertain Hon. Geo W. Murray, ex-M. C. of South Carolina, who is here this week. The Normal School conducted by Prof. J. T. Bridgeforth and others, began here Monday. The Pulaski High School (colored) closed Friday last and a nice, interesting programme was rendered. The exhibition of the Domestic Science and Art Departments were very creditable indeed. Misses Robert Lee Wilson and Addie May Moore made a flying trip to Columbia last Friday and returned Sunday. Mrs. Rubia Pinder returned home from Nashville a few days ago, where she had been visiting her husband, who has work there.

Dr. Cruickshank's reputation is known in the different places of which he has visited, and has raised many patients that other doctors have given up; he is being sent for very often, and the people would be only glad to have him located at the following named places: Martin, Henry, Milan, McLemoresville, and also some at McKenzie and the city of .ashville. Dr. Cruickshank is practicing medicine in the English style, and has been proven very successful in Fayetteville, where he is located; his work excelled any doctor that has ever located in Fayetteville; he is highly looked upon among the whites and the better class of colored people, a disease never comes too hard for him to handle; he is really the best ever seen or heard of on the following diseases: Asthma, Pellagra, female troubles, sores of any kind, kidney troubles, Throat, Ear and Nose. He has handled all of these diseases without any failure, two of his cases of Pellagra in Fayetteville are a wonder to many; after they have been treated by other men and pronounced no cure, Dr. Cruickshank went right in and proved to the doctors that there is a cure. Come to Fayetteville and see for yourself Give Dr. Cruickshank a trial when your family physician fails; he will come to your rescue; his phone is 505, his box is 37, write to him for information in regard to your troubles. Remember his English style in practicing if you have never had an English doctor before—Adv.

FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 1913.
Our Board of Trade.
There has never been organized in the city of Nashville an institution through which the colored people have had as great an opportunity to work for the general good than is offered through the Negro Board of Trade. The white people of Nashville are anxious to recognize this organization. They are anxious for it to succeed, for they consider it an agency through which the best results for the general good can be obtained. This is a fact, and since it is, and since the leading white people of Nashville have manifested such a deep interest in the Board of Trade, it seems that the Negroes who have the welfare of the race at heart should get together, lay aside all selfish ambition and work for the general good of the people.
Nashville is classed as a city of individualism, it is claimed that it is absolutely impossible to unite the men of Nashville. Some of our ablest men confess that this is true, but with the progress that Negroes have made, it does seem that reason should rule. We do not expect that all men shall agree on all things, but it is to be expected that all men with intelligence shall exercise common sense, for if it must finally be admitted that the intelligent men of Nashville cannot agree on anything, then it must be admitted that our education has been a failure. We believe, however, that the men of this city can be brought together in an organization through which the good of the people can be fostered.
The day will not never come when there will not be some disgruntles, but a great good can be accomplished without these few. If there is a fellow so important that he cannot give and take, or in other words, he is so wise that he cannot reason with his fellow-men, then the people will be better off without his service.
To say that the Board of Trade is to-day what it ought to be would be putting a low premium on the worth of the institution, for, in fact, the Board of Trade is not accomplishing what it should, and this is true because of the selfishness that predominates in many.
The Sunday-School Congress.
On last Tuesday a large delegation of Sunday-schol workers left our city en route to the annual session of the Baptist Sunday-School Congress that meets this week in Muskogee, Okla. Nashville enjoys the distinction of being the headquarters of this great movement. Its life and progressiveness are due more to the uniring efforts of Rev. Henry Allen Boyd than any other individual in the Baptist denomination. He has talked Congress so much until everybody, regardless of denomination, is compelled to respect the movement, and to hope for it great success.
The Sunday-School Congress is destined to fill a very important position in the development of the Sunday-school work among the Negroes of this country. It is a school of methods, where Sunday-school workers meet and discuss Sunday-School subjects.
We hope for the Congress a pleasant and profitable session. We know that Muskogee will be greatly benefited by having had these earnest Christian workers as their guests for a few days.
Get Ready to Vote
We feel that it is opportune to warn the Negr voters of this city to get ready to vote. On yesterday a very important election was held and frxmtime to time these questions are coming up for settlement. There is a large registration of Negro voters in Nashville, but that is only one of
the requirements. The paying of poll taxes is another that must be complied with. When we say get get ready to vote, we mean go pay your poll tax yourself. Do not allow some one to pay them for you. The man who will not pay his own tax is not entitled to vote, and we hope for the day when it will be a criminal offense for one man to pay another's poll tax; when we say criminal offense, we mean that we hope there will be a sentiment so strongly against this practice that the laws will be enforced that any man who will be caught at this practice will be punished.
Every man should keep prepared to exercise the voting franchise. We call attention to this matter for fear that some may have lost sight of the fact that all citizens are expected to vote in all of our primaries according to our municipal form of government. It is neither Democratic, Republican, Socialist, nor Progressive, but non-partisan. If you do not vote in the primary it will probably not be necessary to vote in the regular election. For years the Negroes of Nashville have complained about the Democratic Primary. The day has come when that complaint can no longer be made. It is up to the men to stand up as men and exercise the right that has been given to them.
Rallying to Fisk.
It is not a question of how poor they be stated that the people of the country are awakening to the needs of Fisk University. From every quarter contributions are being made in amounts ranging from 50 cents to $500. This is gratifying, and shows that the people will not let Fisk go down. When wwe say the people we mean the Negro people, for this matter is being put squarely up to them. It is not a question of how poor they are, but what they will do for them. GOLOBE WIN June 5
selves. They can do a great deal; for if the graduates of Fisk and the undergraduates and those who have been benefited directly or indirectly by the influence of Fisk will all put their shoulders to the wheel and make a strong pull for Fisk, a splendid contribution can be realized that will put the institution on a sound financial basis. It will guarantee to the Negroes of this southland at least one high-class University. We believe that this is going to be done; we believe that those Negroes who are able to contribute are going to do so in amounts that will stand for something and then when the rank and file bring up the rear with their mites in a few years an endowment of a half million dollars can easily be raised.

SUNDAY-YCHOOL CONGRESS
the train pulled in. The officials were greeted with cheers as they alighted from the train, the Metoka and Galeda Class yell was given by the organized classes and then a line of march was formed, which led from the station to the magnificent auditorium where the 8th session was called to order. The march songs were "Onward Metokas and Galedas" and "Christian Soldiers Marching." At the auditorium all preliminaries were dispensed with and Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., Chairman of the Sunday-School Congress, said "It becomes my very pleasant duty to announce that the Eighth Annual Session of the Sunday-School Congress of the National Baptist Convention has been called to order." After invocation and considerable music from the chorus, the topics for discussion were opened. The first subjects under discussion were: 1. Interdenominational Sunday-School Organizations, National and International; Their Theoretical and Practical Value." There were a half dozen well prepared papers which were read before the body, taking up this in detail. The next subject No. 2—Why Should the Pastor and Church Urge the Organization of Teacher-Training Classes? A more thorough exhaustion of the subject could not have been had than was given this one, which seemed to strike a new cord in the Sunday-school history making. The program for night sessions showed elaborate work on the part of the committee.

AN ENJOYABLE STAG.
One of the most enjoyable stag parties given during the season in Nashville was the splendid entertainment given by Mr. George Frazier, the local shoe merchant, complimentary to Messrs. Charles and William Davis, formerly of Nashville, but now Chicago, Ill., and which was a striking illustration of a genuine and lasting school-boy friendship which has existed since the days when each was a student at Fisk University, years ago.

DEDICATION OF THE OLD SOLDIERS' GRAVES.
Special to the Globe.
Columbia, Teen. May 31. On yesterday at the local cemetery the old
soldiers and veterans of the civil war who fought on the side of the Union held the dedicatory exercises in honor of their deceased comrades. The exercises were held under the auspices of James B. Post, 102 of which Rev. T. L. Glimore is commander, Tom Marks, Major, and Tom Beard, Chaplain. Dr. B. F. Davis is president of the local association and Dr. L. H. Gilmore secretary. When they reached the memorial, Rev. Gilmore turned matters over to Dr. Davis, who in turn read the National State Called, after which the president made a few remarks.
Mr. D. A. Hart, editor of the Nashville Globe, was present and made a short talk in which he said he deplored the fact that young people, and young men especially, were taking little interest in the occasion, and that the day would soon come when the young men would all take special interest in the decoration day, which they owe to the heroes of the civil war, that they so much deserve. The flowers were placed upon the graves and a memorial service held in honor of the late comrade, Mr. Kelly, and a small band of veterans marched back to their homes at the tap of the drum.

DR. ROMAN RETURNS FROM
SOUTH CAROLINA
Dr. C. V. Roman has just returned from Columbia, where he delivered the annual address at Allen University. The address was on the subject, "The Call of My People." Dr. Roman was at his best on this occasion and delivered an address that captivated the audience. Bishop Chappell and Bishop Coppin were present and each expressed himself as deeply impressed by the address. Dr. Roman is a Nashville character and a natural platform orator. His services have been greatly in demand this spring. He has recently delivered addresses at the M. & F. School, Hopkinsville, Ky.; High School, Franklin, and dedicatory address of the Scay Chaple, this city.
GREENFIELD NOTES.
Rev. Mrs. B. F. Harris spent several days with us and delivered some splendid sermons. Especially, fine were the sermons Sunday morning and night, which were delivered for Rev. C. A. Craig and his people. Dr. A. Cruickshank, of Fayetteville, spent a day or two with us lately. He is to return and deliver a special lecture at the Baptist church Monday night, June 9th, and will address the Calanthes at the hall Tuesday night the 10th. The doctor has had excellent advantages and all should hear him. Mr. Roman Rodgers is in our town again and is getting along nicely. It will be remembered that his leg was broken in service of the I. C. several months ago. Master Herbert Winston went to Fulton, Ky. Anl Hester, of Sharon, was here Sunday. Mr. George Williams, formerly of our town, now of Mounds, Ill., is here
for a few weeks. Mrs. Ollie Mitchell Woollard's sister, Miss Amie M. toll, arrived from Medina Saturday, en route to Mounds, Ill., where they are now making their home. They spent a few days visiting relatives and friends. Rev. C. A. Craig and Miss Lacile Ward attended the closing exercises of Lane College last week. Mr. Rufus Wells, while working at the box factory last Saturday, was severely hurt by receiving a blow on the head from some part of the machinery. After being struck he fell several feet, and was unconscious until he was carried to the doctor's office. He is a "square" man, and many are in sympathy with him. Mr. Child Malone's wife was buried here Sunday. She died at their home at Cairo, Ill. Her husband's mother and others accompanied her remains. Several of his relatives and friends came up from Jackson. Among them were Mrs. Fannie and Mrs. Gracie and Misses Mary and Tiny Malone. Misses Eva Hester, Effie Patterson and Dora Milligan, of Sharon, visited Miss Christina Thompson last week. Dr. W. A. West, of Martin last made a visit to Mrs. Maggie Rogers Ball, who had been sick several days. Her mother, Mrs. Sarah Rodgers, also came, and she was carried to Martin a few days ago. The concert at Allen A. M. E. Church last Saturday night was a success, both in a financial and enjoyable way. The stewardess board deserves much credit for their earnest effort, and they, too, thank their many friends for their patronage and aid. Prof. M. A. Dobbs was general manager. There were some special hits made both in singing and reciting. The pieces about the "Titanic," by Mrs. R. Malone, Mrs. B. Dobbs and Miss Ethel Brown; the monologue, Mr. Elvis Hornebake; "Curfew Shall Not Ring To-night," Mrs. Millie Gleason, are a few of the special pieces. Mrs. Bertha Taylor did credit to herself as organist. The church wishes to thank both those who took a part and who patronized the same.
CHATTANOOGANS
The people of Chattanooga are progressive and hospitable. When strangers enter their doors they always find the latch on the outside. The party which visited that city last Sunday headed by Prof. W. J. Hale, who is himself a Noogan of some note found this to be true. The people tried themselves to see which could out do the other in the matter of entertaining. The Haxons, the Thompson, the Billingbsys and in fact many others whose names are not remembered were all vying, one with the other for supremacy.
Mr. G. W. Franklin, Jr, the undertaker, was in evidence assisting in making the visitors feel at home. From a business point of view Allen and Wyclif Drug Stores stand out pre-eminently. This company has an ice cream plant that is not excelled in the South; the latest improved machinery with first class paraphernalia of every description for making and handling the very best cream. In addition to the large amount of retailing in their drug stores they do a deal of wholesale business and ship extensively. Everybody is the embodient of hospitality in Chattanooga. When once you go in the city it means that you will long for another visit. Mr. S. L. Sherrill who is well known in Nashville, is conducting an up-to-date printing office on a small scale. He is having success and is from time to time making improvements in his shop.
Among the progressive physicians in Chattanooga are Drs. W. A. Thompson, Will Davis, and Haven G. Moores, the latter two are Nashville products. The Negroes of Chattanooga are awake to its great possibilities and can be counted-on to be found in the front ranks of progress.
PROTECT THE BIRDS.
By A. L. Garrison, Chief Feed and Seed Inspector, Department Agriculture.
I am influenced by neither sentiment nor patriotism in writing this article, but I write it on a condition of existing facts which would be folly for anyone to undertake to deny or dispute. My information on the subject is limited to my own personal observation and may not therefore, be presented in as logical and as forceful manner as the subject deserves.
I wish I were able and had an opportunity to speak my feelings, and be understood, to every man, woman and child in Tennessee. In a State and Country where we are capable of doing and where we actually do great things, we are prone to forget and neglect some things that are apparently small but which are in reality great.
The protection of non-game birds means millions of dollars to the farmers of this country in insect destruction and weed eradication. I may be somewhat cranky and overzealous when I state that it is the height of ingratitude to watch a catbird satisfy her appetite by eating a handful of caterpillars from a choice appletree, then to take the taste out of her mouth fit away for a ripe cherry or berry of some kind and in doing so get shot—ingratitude exemplified by a real tragedy—a benefactor and a friend slaughtered by him to whom it was sent by a wise Creator to benefit economically, and to cheer with its message of love given forth from vocal chords never to be equalled or approached by the most accomplished prima donna.
The people are aware as never before of the cruelty as well as the economic loss involved in the unchecked slaughter of birds. One of the minor features of the Underwood Tariff Bill is to this end: "The importation of the feathers, quills, heads, wings, skins or parts of skins of wild birds, either raw or manufactured, and not for scientific or educational purposes is hereby prohibited." The prohibition is the favorable response to the humane sentiment of the country and is aimed to stop traffic in the trophies of as wanton a slaughter as was ever perpetrated to

cater to the vanity of humankind. If the farmers, the school teachers, the newspapers and other like agencies would exert their powerful influence for a few years in behalf of these little friends we could with almost absolute assurance feel safe from insect pests, and instead of the croak of the frog there would come from the "orchard, the meadow, and the deep tangled wildwood, melodies which would excel that of the babbling brooks," styled by poets as Nature's sweetest music. If protection is not given the same, in a few years there will come from our woodlands and forests a death-like silence. The boll weevil, potato to beetle, grasshopper, and all other insect enemies of the field and orchard will march unchecked and unhindered, doing damage equal to that of all the droughts, floods, cyclones and tornadoes.
Think about it. This is no idle dream. Let us no longer stain ourselves with the destruction of these little creatures "God Almighty gave to bless the lives of men." "It will soon be too late to repine;—the moving finger writes; and having writ moves on; nor all your piety nor wilt shall it back it to cancel half a line, nor all your tears wash out a word of it."
In future articles on this subject I shall give reports from Farmers' Bulletins Nos. 506 and 513 which will prove conclusively the economic value of different birds.
Mr. C. H. Stofer, the prince of culinary artists, will leave in a few days for Detroit, Mich.

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES OF THE CITY COLORED SCHOOL. (Clarksville, Daily.)
The exhibition of the department of domestic science was held in the science hall, formerly colored Presbyterian Church, at 3 to 1:30 p.m. m. Thursday, and at night. The exhibits of cooking and serving were very creditable and show the people have made rapid progress since the department was opened last January. Specimens of the work of the High School, grammar and primary grades were tastefully arranged. It is estimated that about 600 colored people came at various times to view the exhibits and also many white people, who were especially interested in this new feature of the colored school. The domestic science department is under the supervision of Miss Mabel McKay, and much credit is due her for the excellent display of cooking, serving etc.
The graduating exercises were held at 10 a.m. yesterday and Elder's opera house was well filled. All the speeches were well rendered, showing careful preparation. The address to the graduates was made by Prof. W. H. Singleton, of the Agricultural and Industrial Normal School, Nashville. His address exhorting the graduates to try to be more fully prepared for the emergencies of life, was well received by the audience. Prof. S. L. Smith, Superintendent, made a few remarks, commenting on the future of the domestic science department, and showing the needs of such a department for the whole people. Prof. H. R. Merry, principal of the High School Department, presented the diplomas to the graduates with a few words of encouragement to the class.
The annual concert was held at 8 p. m. last evening, and an even greater crowd than at the morning exercises was present. The exercises consisted mainly of drills, the following being presented in the order named: Fan drill, fairy dance, star drill, sunflower drill, Venetian flower dance. The exercises were under the supervisio not Miss L. Ramey, and together with the corps of assistants, she deserves much credit for the excellent manner and precision in which the drills were carried out. The horuses were well rendered.

FOURTH AVENUE FIRE EARLY
TUESDAY MORNING
Early Tuesday morning the fire ladder was called out to the residence of Mrs. Effie Tyler, but before the company could arrive the house had been considerably damaged, and when the water was turned on the damage to the house furniture rendered it almost entirely useless.
The cause of the fire is unknown. The occupants were aroused from their slumber by people on the out side. They made a narrow escape with their lives, and would have been burned to death had not the neighbors aroused them from their slumbers.
FIRE AT FISK UNIVERSITY
Early Monday a fire was discovered in the barn at Fisk University. The fire alarm was turned on and Engine Co. No. 10 responded, but before the flames could be gotten under control the old barn was caught and all the feed and other implements were damaged to the extend of three or four hundred dollars. They were able to save all except one horse, and he was so badly injured that he had to be shot. The
origin of the fire is unknown, and Chief Rosetta said the only thing that he saw that could have caused the fire was slack lime, but he does not believe the fire originated from this. It is the general opinion that the fire was of incendiary origin. This building was burned about twelve months ago under the same circumstances.
RALLY AT SALEM
On the third Sunday the pastor and members of Salem A. M. E. Church will hold a big club rally. A great rivalry has been worked up between the clubs. Cards are out all over the city that are to be turned in before the rally that all may be given credit.
The baptizing of quite a number of converts occurred Sunday morning at 6:30 o'clock at the Broad street wharf.
An old folk's concert given at Harding's Church, Hawkins street, last Monday night by Mrs. Henriettts Kelly's club was quite a success. A contest of the two churches will occur Monday night, June 9, at Salem Church.

ARCHITECT TO LOOK NASHVILLE
OVER
Through reliable source it has been learned that Mr. I. L. Bailey, a prominent architect of South Carolina, will be in Nashville soon to look over the field here. Mr. Bailey is not only an architect, but a mechanic of rare ability, one who has architectural and mechanical drawing and has spent a number of years in the skilled labor professions. The information was given out by one of the active business men of the city, who has been in correspondence with the gentleman.

MRS. HAMPTON HAS MADE GOOD.
Paris, Tenn., June 2.
Mr. Editor of Globe:
Please give me a little space in your paper to speak of one who the people of Paris think is a great woman.
Mrs. Hampton came to us three years ago, after marrying Rev. Hampton with a great recommendation from the people of her home in Columbia as a teacher, she has made good. The white people say she is the best teacher we have ever had. I attended her closing three nights and her closing was the best that ever was in Paris. The Board elected her for the fourth year and say they are going to keep her as long as she will stay. I am a reader of the Globe and hope to see this. We did not think that a woman could be principal of a big school like this, but she is the best we have had.

Political Economy the Key to the Solution of the Afro-American Race Problem.
By Hon. Geo. W. Murray
There is a great deal said about the solution of the Afro-American race problem, with little knowledge of what it comprehends, and of what is involved in its solution.
For want of knowledge, or physical and intellectual eyes, to see what is actually transpiring around, and against themselves, there are reputed intelligent members of this race, who declare, with an air of finality, that there is no race problem.
labor, sell his consumption would be left wed community, make all the dustries, emplace of publ him, which he Or if he has business consee he at the sar much self-deep self-opposition
Of course, they are without eyes of any kind to see that members of their own race are universally excluded as a race, except as menials, scavengers and common laborers, at the lowest rate of wages, from the industrial life of the community, regardless to qualification; that they are disbarred from the enjoyment of political and civil liberty, and are excluded from social intermingling with the rest of mankind the same as if they were lepers.
If discovering ways and means, to give themselves a share in the higher salaried and more honorable employment; to secure equal political and civil liberty with the members of other races; and to acquire equal recognition and consideration, when they are otherwise equal, with others in the social body, do not constitute a problem peculiar to Afro-American, then there is no problem of any kind for any other people in the world. Those who declare that there is not a race problem for members of the Afro-American race, either expose their ignorance or duplicity.
This race has two of the most serious problems that ever confronted any portion of the human race. Its problems are both internal and external, and it is impossible for it to solve its external problem before its internal problem shall have been solved.
The internal problem of the Afro-American race comprehends a business ignorance and spiritual degradation peculiar to its members, who are without business thought and ideas, conversations, customs, manners and activities, and who are in want of self-appreciation, self-preservation and self-defense, or self-love, and its solution involves the finding of ways and means to give them the same degree of business thoughts and ideas, customs, manners and activities; and the same degree of self-appreciation, or self-love, self-preservation and self-defense that members of other races possess.
The external problem of the Afro-American race comprehends the economic, political, civic and social segregation or exclusion of its members. Its internal problem was made when in the establishment of African slavery in this country its members were consigned to a condition of ignorance, poverty and degradation, and were limited and accustomed in employment to the lowest rounds of industry; whose only compensation was the cheapest and scantiest food and clothing essential to keep them in physical condition for the highest possible productive efficiency. In such a condition, and founded upon their right of ownership, those who possessed their ownership demanded and were accorded the proportionate share of the ancestry of the members of this race, in the political and civil affairs, and they were excluded from any participation in all such matters by which they were not only given a different economic status from other members, but founded upon it a different political and civil status. Such an economic, political and civil condition and status, combining ignorance, poverty and degradation, could not develop an abnormal low and cowardly spirit in them, which unified them, both economically and spiritually, for association with the rest of mankind not in their condition, and such is the condition and status of their descendants, the Afro-Americans, today. By which it is seen that the political, civil and social status of the ancestry of the Afro-American race was founded upon their economic condition and spiritual state which remains the political civil and social status of their descendants today, who are in the same economic condition and spiritual state, and there is no possibility of changing their peculiar political civil and social status before changing the economic and spiritual condition and state upon which it is founded. Therefore the Afro-Americans's first great problem is the solution of the problem of changing his peculiar economic and spiritual condition and state, which he has both the legal and physical freedom and ability to do, but which his want of business knowledge and self-love prevents him from doing.
It is apparent that the Afro-American is in such business ignorance that he knows little or nothing of the value of his labor, of what he produces, or what he consumes beyond quality and quantity. Owing to his want of business knowledge with him it is only how much or how good in all his business transactions, whether he is sell his labor or products, or purchasing his consumptions, he seldom if ever considers what the profits or losses on his business transactions mean to him in his low condition and segregated state. Even his literarily trained member appears not to have developed sufficient business consciousness to conceive that it is the profit which others make on his labor, on what he sells, or what he buys that is building up the industry or business enterprise in which he is employed only as a menial, and which is producing the wealth that builds the places of public accommodation from which he is excluded and to see that he can so
labor, sell his products, or purchase his consumptions that such profit would be left within his own segregated community, where it would soon make all the business enterprises industries, employment, wealth and places of public accommodation for him, which he is now giving to others. Or if he has developed sufficient business consciousness to conceive, he at the same time developed so much self-depreciation, self-hate, or self-opposition that he cannot make the same use of his knowledge, for his own benefit as members of other races. Therefore, as the means of solving his economic or basic problem, the Afro-American must first apply himself to the solution of the problem of his spiritual degradation and business ignorance, or his self-depreciation and want of business knowledge.
Just as the white man played a great part in making, he can play a great part in solving the two great problems of this race as soon as he can overcome his false teaching that the traditions which his ancestry gave its ancestry to make slaves, tools and inferiores were ordained by the God of nature.
But as soon as the Afro-American begins to originate instead of always absorbing the thoughts of others he will see that the traditions which produce his peculiar order of many were made by the master's art and not the God of nature, and that as soon as he rids himself of them he will at once begin to produce a very different order of man.
Great harm has come and is coming to him because both his friends and foes appear to regard and have treated and are treating his spiritual degradation and business ignorance which have been developed and are being developed in the artificial traditions and environment devised for slaves and designed to produce them as natal and inerradical racial instead of traditional traits. That is, they erroneously see his spiritual degradation and business ignorance as inseparably associated with the person of a member of this race instead of his traditions and environment, and for such reason they do not see how to rid him of them.
Owing to such erroneous assumptions his enemies damn him to all eternity as having been created an inferior by the God of nature, and is for such reason a hopeless failure, and he and his friends are without the means of defense.

Another surprise was spring Wednesday, when the Southern Stars that were represented by many to be the strongest team in the league went down before the Athletics. The pitching of Buford was the feature of the game, he having 17 strikeouts to his credit. Blair also pitched a good game, and had his team played steady ball behind him the score would have doubtless been much closer.

GREENWOOD BLOOMER GIRLS BASEBALL TEAM.
June 23 a great surprise will be sprung on the people of Nashville, when the Greenwood Bloomer Girls baseball team will cross bats with the N. & C. Stars at Greenwood park. It is not generally known that the girls have been putting in hard practice under a competent baseball in-

The above cut is taken from a photograph of the Mr. Robert Smith, pitcher for the Y, M. C. A. baseball team. Mr. Smith delights in clean athletics generally but baseball is evidently his hobby. He can be counted upon to play well his part in helping his team play a well-balanced game. The association gladly embraces the opportunity to help young men develop to the highest possible point of efficiency; their spirit, mind and body.
structor, and when they line up against the strong N. and C. Stars, who have membership in the Capital City League, there will be a surprise in store for them.
From inside information it is learned that the Greenwood Bloomer Girls are ready right now to step in and put up a high-class game of baseball, and those who think that the game will be a farce, if the prediction of those who are in a position to know and who have a thorough knowledge of baseball holds good, when the N. and C. Stars will have finished the game, they will have played some ball. The Bloomer Girls are all robust athletes and able to put up a stiff fight on the diamond.
A double header will be played on the same day after the Bloomer Girls shall have finished; the N. and C. Stars and the Greenwood Giants will hitch up for a final contest.
Other amusements to make the day one of interest will be the May Pole Plaiting and a play at the Dunbun Theater by the Masons. The full details of entertaining will appear in the Globe next week.

JACK JOHNSON GIVEN YEAR IN PENITIARY.
Negro Pugilist Sentenced by Court for Violating White Slave.
Chicago, June 4—John Arthur Johnson, champion heavyweight pugilist, was sentenced to one year and one day in the penitentiary and to pay a fine of $1,000 by Federal Judge Carpenter today for violating the Mann act in the transportation of Belle Schreiber.
Just before announcing the sentence, Judge Carpenter said:
"The life of the defendant by his own admission has not been at all a moral one. The defendant is one of the best known meh of his race, as his example has been a far-reaching one. The court is bound to take these facts into consideration.
"Well, what do you think of it, Jack?" the pugilist was asked.
"It's not so bad," he answered,
"but I'm not there yet. If it comes down to the last scratch, I'll be as good a sport as any of them in taking what's handed to me."
Johnson was allowed to go free on his bond of $30,000 for two weeks, until his attorney, Benjamin C. Bachrach, can prepare a writ of error. It is expected a writ of supersedes will be issued out of this writ of error, so that Johnson will probably will continue at liberty until such time as the Court of Appeals shall pass on his case.
Attorney Bachrach based his motion for a new trial on alleged errors in the record and insufficiency of evidence. He objected to the court's having permitted the introduction of evidence which brought out Johnson's relations with other women prior to the 1910, on which date the act became operative.
