NASHVILLE OFFERS OPPORTUNITY
VOL. VIII.
MASONS MEET IN JACKSON
LARGE DELEGATIONS FROM DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF STATE
Grand Master Henry Presiding—Big Public Denomstration—Street Parade and Exhibition Drill.
Special to the Globe.
Jackson, Tenn., Aug. 4.—At half past nine o'clock the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of the Grand Communication of the Masonic Order of Tennessee was opened by Grand Master J. A. Henry, of Chattanooga, assisted by the grand officers. "Come ye that love the Lord," was sung. Prayer was offered by Hon. Grand Chaplain, J. S. Gilmore, of Columbia. The Grand Craft joined in singing "A charge to keep I have." The grand secretary then proceeded to collect credentials from the various subordinate lodges. The Grand Master appointed the following committee on Credentials: W. O. Smith, 48; E. K. Green, 42; W. C. Kennedy, 48; G. C. Harden, 12; J. E. Harper. Committee on Grand Masters' Address: S. M. Strayhorn, 20; W. J. Cansler, 165; C. O. Hunter, 11; G. R. Washington, 14; R. F. Thompson, 49.
The parade was a special feature of the meeting and attracted much attention. The Grand Lodge officers, the Grand Commandery officers and Sir Knights, Grand Chapter officers and companions with local lodges formed the parade which marched over the principal streets of the city, headed by the Humboldt Brass Band. The parade terminated at the South Royal Park, where the line of march disbursed. South Royal Park was crowded with the members of the Order of both men and women's department and the public in general. They and assembled to witness the exhibition and competitive drill. The following commanderies took part in the exhibition and competitive drills: Apollo Commandery, of Nashville; Knight Preston Taylor, Commander; Palestine Commandery, of Memphis, and the Grand Commandery of Tennessee. The exhibition drills brought forth constant applause, and the commanderies executed the beautiful manuvers that are performed by this order only.

All minds were centered on the competitive drill that was to conclude the program of the evening. Sharp rivalry has always existed between the Apollo Commandery, of Nashville, and Palestine, of Memphis. It was evident from the outset that the contest would be stubbornly fought. Apollo Commandery won the first prize after a close contest. They were cheered to the echo by friend and foe for the gallant fight they put up to win first honors.
On Tuesday morning, the second day, the State Grand Lodge convened in the auditorium at 9 o'clock. The meeting was called to order by Grand Master J. A. Henry, of Chattanooga, and opened in regular form. The body assembled represented the state from every quarter. The men from the farm, the factory and every profession—brave men who love the order and who stand for the uplift of the race in every respect. A more representative body of men was never assembled on any occasion. Upon their faces were written the determination to persevere in spite of every opposition. They showed in their faces that they possessed the great virtues taught by the Order. Men who loved their brethren were they, true and tried, and who quake not when duty calls.
The Grand Master's address was next in order. He then read his address, which covered the work of the year in a most comprehensive manner. Every phase of the work was taken up in minute detail, and showed that the Grand Master had given much time and ardous labor to the work of the orders. He called special attention to the Masonle Home located at Nashville, pointing out the great good the institution is doing and urged the members to stand by the Home and strive to make it of more benefit to the people. Special reference was made to the uniting services rendered by Grand Secretary W. S. Thompson, who said the Grand Master "has sacrificed all for the good of the Order he loves so well." He commanded that the Grand Lodge show in a commendable way its appreciation of his services.

FEATURES DOC TORS MEETING
NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION WILL BE ROYALLY ENTERTAINED
Reunion On Monday 25th-Doctors To Speak on Sunday Preceding—Several Public Metings
There will be several special feature at the meeting of the National Medical Association that will be of interest to the public in general. The reunion, as has been stated in these columns on several occasions, will be held on Monday, the 25th. On the Sababah preceding the reunion the doctors will take charge of the city pupils and make talks on health. On the morning of the second day of the Association, which is Wednesday, there will be held at 10 o'clock a special meeting of the Dental Session. This will be open to the public and will be especially for the benefit of parents and children. The following are the subjects that will be discussed: "Oral Hygiene," "How We Should Eat," "The Care of the Teeth," "What Every Man and Woman Should Know," "The Care of the Mouth During Pregnancy," "The Relation of the Teeth to Health," The Relation of Dentition to the Growing Child." This will be one of the most beneficial meetings held, as subjects will be discussed that will be beneficial to the people.
The National Medical Association comms not only to assemble and to discuss among themselves, but to be of benefit to the public as well. All private meetings, however, will be held on Meharry Campus, but before the delegates enter into their routine of business the citizens of Nashville desire that their guests be made to feel at home and on Tuesday night at the Spruce Street Baptist Church will be held a welcome meeting at which time addresses of welcome will be made by persons representing the different walks of life. On Wednesday night at St. Paul A. M. E. Church will be held another public meeting. Clinics will be held at the Meharry Medical College and all operations, treatment and dental work will be done free of charge.
There should always be a social side to everything and the citizens of Nashville are well aware of this fact, and have spared no pains in making preparations to give to the delegates a most cordial welcome and show to them such hospitality that will ever be remembered.
Plans are well under way for entertaining the delegates, and a most elaborate program has been planned. On Tuesday the delegates will be given a trolley ride, at which time they will visit the various points of interest in and around the city. Many of the doctors will be accompanied by their wives and many of the rfriends will take advantage of the cheap rates and will be glad of the opportunity to visit Nashville. The City Federation of Women's Clubs have planned to entertain the visiting ladies at a reception in the parlor of the Hubbard Hospital Wednesday afternoon, and at the same time the men will be entertained at some other place with a smoker. The general banquet will be on Thursday night at the banquet hall of Meharry Auditorium, and on Friday an auto ride to the Hermitage will be given. Tails will eclipse all outings of the season. The meeting as a whole promises to be very helpful to the delegates who attend, and the people in general. Meharry will present herself in her best attire, as every point has felt the touch of the painter's brush.
MASS-MEETING AT MT. ZION
A mass-meeting was held at Mt. Zion Baptist Church last night to organize the Negroes of the city. The meeting was called by a committee composed of Rev.

TO THE MEN OF THE TENTH CAVALIY.
(An Editorial from the Evening Star, a daily paper published in Winchester, Va., July 28.)
It is to be regretted that the Baltimore Sun of Sunday saw fit to print on its front page a nentiously erroneous statement respecting the conduct of the Negro troopers of the Tenth Cavalry, who are encamped at Winchester. The Sun, as will appear in our news columns to-day, stated that the behavior of the Negro troopers and the women who parade the streets with them is becoming a nuisance, and that the troopers have crowded white women from the sidewalks.
Such statements as these are wholly at variance with the wacts. It is true that there may be, and very likely will be, isolated cases where the troopers of the Tenu have become noisy on the streets and given some offense to some citizens. But on the whole their behavior in Winchester has been excellent so far, and we have reason to believe that they will continue to conduct themselves as men should who wear the uniform of the United States Army, whether they be black or white.
Because a man's skin happens to be black constitutes no reason why he should not be treated with fairness and consideration if no conducts himself in a proper manner in his bearing toward his fellow-men. If the troopers of the Tenth Cavalry commit offenses against the peace and comfort of the people of Winchester, they will be adequately and promptly punished. If they do not commit such offenses, and show themselves to be law-binding and properly-behaved men then they are surely entitled to liberty and freedom, according
Colonel Gresham, the commanding officer of the unit that is this
MAYOR HOWSE IN TO FINISH
MAYOR HOWSE IN TO FINISH
SAYS HE WILL NOT GIVE WAY TO ANY CANIDATE ON COMPROMISE
Was Talk of Compromise—Insists There Are No Grounds for Such a Movement and Labor People Are Not Interested.
Mayor Sowse will not step down and out for any candidate, compromise or otherwise. He is in the race to a finish and says he has greater encouragement to day than since he announced his candidacy for the Mayorship under the commission form of government.
"I am in the race to the end," said Mayor Howse recently. "There was some talk of myself and Judge Meeks quitting the race in favor of some compromise candidate on whom the labor element could agree, but I have learned that there was little grounds for such a movement There was really nothing to it. Several of my friends were approached on the subject and were urged to get me to agree to get off the track for the good of the party.
"I have served the people of Nashville for four years and they know where I stand. I am a Democrat and

have always been, and I see no reason why I should get out of the race for anybody. I believe the rank and file of Nashville Democrats will stand by me, and I also believe the rank and file of labor people are for me. However, I see no call upon me now to quit i ehlayer's race for the sake of the party. I have violated none of its principles, am an ardent Democrat and always will be, and I intend to stay in the race to the finish."
Patterson Incident Quiet.
Mayor Howse, when asked if he intended to make a statement regarding the arrest of former Governor Patterson, said: "I have decided to let the matter alone. I could not make a statement without making it worse for him. The spasms of anger his arrest caused among his friends and a few others has passed. The reaction has already come and many who censured me because they believed I had caused his arrest for political reasons, which was untrue, have come to me and told me they are now my friends. I will make no statement regarding the incident, as I consider it closed."
Asked when the campaign will really open between himself and Judge-Meeks, Mayor Howse said he is not sure, but that he will soon begin an active campaign. He would not say whether or not he will go into records of his political enemies or not, but hinted that he would resort to any fair methods of defense to let the people of Nashville know the facts.
false statements, as these printed by the Sun, are a hurt to their pride, and we believe that Colonel Gresham is right. Colonel Gresham is a Virginian himself, and he well understands the characters and motives of the dark-skinned men whom he commands and who give him their confidence and obey him without question.
MISS LAURA E. ALLEN AT HOME

WANT $50,000 FOR WALDEN
ALUMNI ASSOCIATION PLANNING FOR
A FINANCIAL CAMPAIGN
$5,000 to Be Raised by October 1.—
Great Opportunity To Help
Faltering Institution—
Never Before People.
In support of the plans of the Freedmen's Aid Board, of Cincinnati, to reorganize Walden University and to place it on a sound basis so far as equipment is concerned, the alumni association, numbering two thousand or more, has launched a financial campaign to raise $5,000. Two thousand of which is to be put down by October 1.
The alumni and friends of the school regard this undertaking as Walden's greatest opportunity to strengthen its prestige which has been for a half century astonishingly flattering.
In speaking of the campaign that has been planned, a friend of the institution said: "It is remarkable that for ten years under the most trying circumstances, the university has so successfully held its own, and it is to be noted that during all these years of embarrassment it has not been conspicuously before the public asking for money.
Nashville has never been given an opportunity to donate largely to this end of the institution which has held such a unique position in the educational, social and commercial life of this city." The plans under which the alumni are working will place before every citizen an opportunity to assist in this worthy call. Indeed their plans will be a positive challenge, to the interest and benefaction of the friends of the institution. The club system will be operated by the following leaders: W. D. Hawkins, chairman, Club No. 1; M. Miss Vera Lee Moore, secretary and treasurer, Club No. 2; Miss Fille Lloyd, Club No. 3; Mrs. L. B. Scott, Club No. 4; Prof. W. L. Brown, Club No. 5; Dr. W. H. Walker, Club No. 6; Mrs. Florence Johnson Ford, Club No. 7; Mrs. Lullo Jyll Derrick, Club No. 8; Miss Nannie E. Perkins, Club No. 9; Miss Selene McGavock, Club No. 10; Mrs. Ida Bell Evans Luckie, Club No. 11.
Bishop T. H. Henderson, of Chattanooga, conferring with the alumni, announced the first ground breaking of the new building, October 6, at the session of the Tennessee Annual Conference.
THIRD WARD VOTERS HOLD
NEETING.
Friday night last the voters of the Third Ward held a meeting at Sevel Street Church for the purpose of organizing for the good of the ward along all lines. The name chosen was the Third Ward Civic Club. There was a spirited fight over the name. Some wanted to have the name read "Nashville Civic Club," others preferred the name "North Nashville Civic Club." An amendment was made and then an amendment to an amendment, but as soon as the "citywilders" had finished offering amendments the opposition proceeded to take them off until the matter reverted back to its original form, as it was passed. No sooner had this difficulty been overcome than the meeting was plunged into another struggle over the next paragraph in the declaration of principles which touched on the honor question, which favored the enforcement of the present state law but insisted on the original segregation law that was effective before the state law was passed. The report of the committee was sustained, but was later reconsidered and will come for final settlement to night. It is believed that this matter will be stricken out for the sake of harmony.
The purpose of the Third Ward Civic Club, it is learned is to organize all of the voters in the ward into a working force, and to get them prepared to vote. The opinion seems to be general that the club should be nonpartisan and that as a club it will not endorse any special candidate, but will leave that matter for the individual to decide.
The question has been advanced that a club is already in existence, but it was pointed out that that club was a Oepublican club, and that the Third Ward Civic Club aims to take in all voters of whatever political faith. It has been suggested by some that after the club is organized, that it would be a good plan to have public meetings and have sneakers of ability who are supporting the various candidates speak to the club in behalf of their candidates. It is not known whether such a plan will be presented to the club or not.
The voters of the ward are deeply interested in this movement and will doubtless give it the largest membership any club has ever had in this ward, for the simple reason that every voter of whatever political belief can join and feel free to exercise his rights as a citizen and a voter.
Miss Ella Wilson left the city Sunday night for Louisville, Ky., to spend the remainder of the summer with her brothers.

Mr. D. A. Hart,
Nashville Globe Pub. Co.,
Dear Sir:
I have been a reader of the Globe for some time and I regard it as one of the best Negro papers of the country. Its editorials are always sound and able and thoroughly loyal to the interest of the Negro race. It deserves a wide circulation among our people and I wish for it a continually increasing patronage.
With best wishes, I remain

Some one has asked me my opinion of the Nashville Globe as a newspaper, and especially as a race newspaper. I am delighted that I can reply by saying that the Globe is a regular visitor to my home and no paper a broader welcome there, not even the dear old Recorder that has been to me a splendid source of help and inspiration from the year 1868 till the present.
My high appreciation for the Globe grows out the fact that first, it speaks out in no uncertain tones for the race, and for humanity; secondly it keeps fresh and instructive news on its pages; and thirdly, the sheets are clean in their character of the news which it presents to the readers who patronize it. That it must have its faults no one questions, but in the main with me it is a very reputable news paper and defends well the helpless people in whose interest it was launched. Long may it live to whely and fearlessly advocate the cause of those who need it most and play a part in the uplift of every one who will be aided by it, and may every race lover and lover of mankind subscribe for it, and pay his subscription promptly.
Evans Tyree.
Replying to your letter of recent date, I will state that I have been a constant reader of the Globe for the last several years and regard it one of the very best papers published in the country without regard to race, its editors are always strong and has done a deal for race advancement. Yours very truly, T. G. Ewing, Jr. Atty. at Law.
Editor The Nachville Globe.
Dear Sir--For the past seven years the Globe has visited our home during which time we have perused its columns with pleasure and profit. I have watched with delight the Globe grow from a small beginning to its present status and I rejoice to say that it has a circulation of which any paper would be proud.
The Globe wends its way to various parts of the country in fact, the sun never sets on readers of the well-etited paper. When I am in remote cities and can procure the Globe I always kept posted on what the Home Folks are doing.
I felicitate you upon the brilliant record your paper has made in the journalistic world. Suffice to say the Globe is holding its own, and our weekly literary visits would, be incomplete without our "Home Paper."
With best wishes for your continued success, I beg to remain.

M. Dear Mr. Hart:
The Nashville Globe is one of the most welcome visitors to our Library. Students and teachers alike find it full of valuable information of a character which helps and encourages all of us. It gives me great pleasure to send you this testimonial expression of our regard. Yours very truly, BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
Wilhelmeor. Ohio. June 4. 1913.
I have been a reader of the Globe since it was first established. It seems to have been born will and to have been managed with much ability and judgment from the beginning. Its editors, have especially impressed me; they have always spoken true and strong on all moral questions. have forcibly defended the civil and political rights of the race, and it has been the friend of every good cause. The tone has always been manly, independent and sane. It seems to me that in the selection of its news, it has shown a true journalistic instinct, and, so far as I have observed has admitted nothing to its columns contrary to good morals or good taste. Probably there has been no simple agency in Nashville of great or service to the people. Long may it live and continue its good work.
Philadelphia, Pa., June 4. 1913.
My Dear Sir:
I have read the Nashville Globe with great pleasure. I regard it as one of the best secular papers we have. I am sorry to say, however, that its coming to my address is very irregular. I don't see it sometimes for three weeks.

Mr. D. A. Hert, Editor Nashville
Globe, Nashville, Tenn.
My Dear Sir—In response to your favorite of May 29, I am pleased to inform you that for several years I have been a subscriber of the Globe and both my wife and I read it each week with interest.
I have come to depend upon it as a means of keeping informed as to affairs and people in Nashville, my old home.
You are to be congratulated upon your good success in maintaining a

Mr. D. A. Hart, Nashville Globe, City:
Dear Shr—In the absence of Governor Hooper I ask knowledge receipt of your letter of recent date, asking for an expression as to his opinion of your paper. Your letter will be called to his attention when he returns to the office.

Mr. D. A. Hart, City:
My Dear Mr. Hart—The Globe is
popular, has a wide circulation in
Tennessee and other states. If its
policy continues liberal, independent
and dependable, it will be a great
power to be reckoned with in the future
welfare of the race.
Very respectfully,
W. J. HALE, President.
Lake Helena, Fla.
The Nashville Globe has been coming
to my desk for many years. I began
taking it when I was President of
Fisk University.
As an undying friend of the Negro,
I have red it wITH a sympathetic and
at the same time with a jealous eye,
desiring as I should reflect credit
upon the people in whose interests it
is published.
Notwithstanding this Irreparable loss, the G obe has with ability occupied the position assigned it as one of the leading Negro weeklies of the world.
It is fearless in its advocacy of the truth as it sees it, and in the main its views of the truth are, to my mind, sound.
It shows the possession of the newspaper instinct and plays no unimportant part in the elevation of the people who are making such marvelous strides in the upbuilding of a race that has yet to have its chance.

My Dear Mr. Hart—In reply to your

wide awake and interesting weekly
papers in the United States.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Sir—I am glad to say I am
much pleased with the Nashville
Globe, and there is within my knowledge no other colored newspaper in the country, combining so much the truits of correct and reliable news,
well, written, and independent editions and painstaking in courtesy, all necessary to produce a useful and trustworthy newspaper.

Mr. D. A. Hart, Editor Nashville
Globe, Nashville, Tenn.:
Dear Mr Hart—I beg to acknowledge receipt of your recent favor, calling for an expression of my opinion of your good paper.
The Globe is easily one of the best publications gotten out by our people, and in some respects outdistances them. I have been a reader of it for years and have watched with pleasure its growth in the strength of its editorials, news matter and general makeup as well as influence.

Dear Sir—Responding to your inquiry of May 29, as to my opinion of the Nashville Globe, will say that on the whole, I like it exceedingly well. At this distance, however, I would prefer less college and religious matter and more news of general interest pertaining to the race.

My Dear Mr. HA—Referring to yours of recent death, I beg to say that among the names of Negro journals I have come to this office none are more eagerly scanned for a wide scope of news matter than the Globe. My work being almost wholly devoted to denominational matters, I as a matter of course, give more attention to religious publications, but as a secular paper, the Globe has but few equals, in my opinion, and it de-

Dear Sir—Yours of May the 22nd to hand, and the contents are noted. In reply, you ask an expression of my opinion of the Nashville Globe, a paper edited by yourself et al. In many respects I think the Nashville Globe a most excellent paper and one that people read. While I have not agreed with the policy of the paper upon some issues, yet as a newspaper, it is abreast of the times, and the people will make no mistake in reading it. It is ably edited, truthful in conjectures, and well worth reading.

PROSECUTION OF JOHNSON.
Protest Comes From Australia In
Negro's Interest.
Washington, July 26—Vice President Marshall today received a protest from Australia against the prosecution of Jack Johnson under the white slave law. The communication declares the suit to be the result of a "conspiracy to ruin the reputation and health of Mr. Johnson as a master pugilist."
The Vice President had to pay 10 cents postage due on the protest. He promptly turned it over to J Hamilton Lewis, from whom he collected the excess postage on the plea that Johnson was a constituent of Lewis' and the Senator should stand the tax on general principles.

ORLINDA NOTES
It is quite dry here. Crops are very much in need of rain. The Health of the community is very good, Mr. Simon Ellison, a very aged man, departed this life Sunday, August 3. Mr. Ellison was quite an honorable citizen who will be greatly missed in this community. He was a member remains will be laid to rest n that of Second Grove M. E. Church. His cemetery. He leaves a wfe and a host of children, grandchildren and friends to mourn his loss, though we trust our loss is heaven's eternal gain. The Friendship Baptist Church, Crosspains, Rev. Dunlap, pastor of which many of our citizens are members, had an awakening revival last week. Rev. D. W. Bowen, pastor of First Baptist Church, Springfield, Tenn., and Keysburg Baptist Church, Keysburg, Ky., conducted the meeting. This was the grandest meeting that has been had in this community for a number of years. Rev. Bowen is a noted preacher, we truly believe him to be a worthy man. People from all directions, both far and near crowded in to hear him and at the close of one week's work he received thirty-nine converts for baptism. We feel everybody that attended was greatly benefited, for such shouting and praising the Lord was never before known. The name of Rev. D.

NEWPORT (KY.) NOTES.
Sunday was a high day at St. Paul A. M. E. Church, it being rally day, every one was out in his p's and q's. Quite a large crowd was present all day. Rev. A. W. Jackson, B. D., pastor, preached an excellent sermon Sunday morning from the 7th chapter of Matthew and 7th verse, subject "Seek and ye shall find." In the afternoon Rev. Franklin, of Walnut Hill's Cincinnati, preached a wonderful sermon from 1st Corinthians, 10th chapter, 13th verse, subject, "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man." Rev. Franklin is an excellent speaker and will help Rev. Jackson in his revival in September. The chair under the auspices of Mr. Lewis Robinson, rendered beautiful music. Mrs. M. E. Jackson presided at the organ in the morning, and Miss Beulah Smith in the afternoon and evening. The men are all smiles, having raised the largest amount of money for the first time, though the ladies are very well pleased and think "better once than never" as they have always been in the lead. The men had better continue to hustle, though, or else they'll get beat yet, as the rally continues until September and the ladies are still working. Meesdames Darkins, Smith and Robinson are preparing to give an entertainment the 25th of September with the assistance of the other ladies to bring up the rear of their part. Those paying the largest amount were Rev. A. W. Jackson, B. D., pastor, $25.00. Mr. W. M. Lawrence, $7.35. Mr. Albert Waugh, $16.75. Mr. W. M. Rutledge, $8.35. Mr. Johnson Ennett, $9.00. Mrs. Elizabeth Waugh, $5.75. Mrs. Ida Smith, $3.50. Miss Anna Million, $5.00. Mrs. Ellen Turner, $5.00. Mrs. S. C. Letcher, $4.50. The me naired $85.26. Mr. W. M. Rutledge, captain; Mrs. Mattie Oliver, Secretary. The women raised $43.57. Mrs. Elizabeth Waugh, captain; Mrs. G. A. Rutledge, secretary. Total amount raised, $128.33. The Sunday-school is making rapid progress, having very good attendance each Sunday. Mrs. N. M. Lawrence is much better now and possibly will soon be able to take her place. Everybody enjoys the explanation given on the lesson each Sunday morning by Mr. N. C. Jackson, from the blackboard and leaf cluster. Mr. Jackson is an able instructor and makes the lesson quite interesting. Mrs. Ida Jackson spent Sunday afternoon with Rev. and Mrs. A. W. Jackson. Mr. Jacob Oliver, who went to West Virginia for his health, is improving. Those on the sick list are Mrs. Virgis Turner and Mrs. Ben Frazier. Mrs. Catherine Frye and Mrs. Birdie Brown, her sister, were pleasant callers at the home of Mrs Geneva Rutledge and Mrs. Ida Jackson friday evening.

FRIDAY. AUGUST 8. 1913.
Register and Pay Your Poll Tax.
Beginning next Monday and continuing until the twentieth of this month, the regular biennial registration will be held. Everyone who expects to vote in the next election must register. The fact that you registered last year does not alter the case; the registration last year was for the special benefit of those who had moved since the regular registration was held, but those same persons will have to register again this year.
This will be the first election under the new form of government, and there will be an army of candidates who will come before the people claiming that they can best run the city under the new form of government; if you are not prepared to vote you may be placed in an embarrassing position, if it reaches the point where you feel that your vote could save the day.
After you shall have registered them go and pay your poll taxes. Do not wait for somebody to pay them for you, for if you do you will make that individual your master. Be a man; pay your poll tax yourself and be able to spurn the suggestion from any one to py them for you. When you shall have satisfied yourself that you are a qualified voter do not say within yourself, "I have done my full duty," but remember that you are your brother's keeper, and that you must go to him and see that he has done as you have. Get in line, and then you can join in the "Look what we have done" chorus.
Compulsory School Law.
Seven millions of dollars have been set aside for school purposes this year. This is partly due to the fact that the compulsory school law goes into affect this year. Already reports have come from over the state telling how the law is operating. This law applies to all children. The black boy must go to school in Tennessee; while this is true, parents should not feel that they have been relieved of every responsibility, for such is not the case. It is just as imperative now as it was before we had the law that parents help make its operation the more easy that the greatest amount of good may come to all the children in the state.
The Martin Mob.
The anties of the mob at Martin, Tenn., are of the sort that make Negroes wonder if white men are really brave. Think of it; several days after a murder has been committed a gang of self-appointed deputy sheriffs go prowling through the most cultured section of the colored citizens of the town, searching for the murderer; and to cap the climax they demand that a merchant open his refrigerator that they may see if the murderer is biding in there. The truth of the whole thing is they do not believe a Negro committed the deed, but there is not enough courage in the whole crowd to compel them to tell the truth. It is trying to have to undergo such intimidations, but the Negroes of Martin are inuring it brvely, which after all is the strongest trait of true manhood.
One day last week a great howl was raised here in the daily papers, charging that a Negro had been placed over white prisoners as a guard. It developed however that the Negro and the white man were both prisoners. It is her election time and the poor Negro in the work house boosts some white man for office.

HIGHER SCHOOLS FOR THE NE
GBOES
Washington, August 5—The United States Bureau of Education, in cooperation with the trustees of the Phelps-Stokes fund, to-day announced that it is making a study of private and higher schools for Negroes. A report of the equipment of the different schools, their work and their place in the educational system with which they are connected will be published later. The Phelps-Stokes fund is the residuary estate, amounting to about one million dollars, bequeathed by Miss Caroline Phelps-Stokes of New York for various philanthropic purposes, among which is the education of Negroes. Gifts have been made to the University of Virginia, University of Georgia, and to the Peabody College in Nashville, Tenn., for the maintenance of fellowships and research work in the field of Negro education. A number of smaller sums also have been given for reallied purposes.
The above is according to the Associated Press news service. The gifts referred to are puzzling Negroes of this city. Especially so as regards the gift to Peabody College since none of the funds going to that college benefits Negroes. There is no provision made for Negro education, or if it is intended, the Negroes are not getting the benefit of it. Negroes contend that the gifts would do them more good if give nto institutions for them instead of to white schools for research. It is argued that so much research and no real educational work is not helping the Negro materially.
GREAT TREAT FOR THE BUSI-
NESS LEAGUE.
Philadelphia, Pa., August 4.—The National Negro Business League, of which Dr. Booker T. Washington is president, when it convenes in this city the 20th, 21st and 22d of this month, is to be given a great treat and shown a signal honor when John Wanamaker, the merchant prince, entertains the members of the League in the famous Egyptian Hall of the great Wanamaker store Thursday afternoon, the 21st inst. The indications point to this being the most largely attended and most interesting meeting yet held by the League. During the fourteen years the League has been in existence sixty-three Negro banks and over ten thousand Negro business enterprises have been founded. Philadelphia's City Council appropriated $5,000 out of the city's treasury to assist in entertaining the League. The sessions will begin Wednesday morning, August 20th, at 10 o'clock in Music Fund Hall. Arrangements have been completed, on the part of Philadelphia's citizens, to facilitate the League's business sessions and to furnish the delegates and friends with many diverting and pleasant forms of entertainment, amons which will be an excursion up the Delaware to Burlington island, on which the of the finest vessels affloat which has been placed at the service ice of the League free.

appropriateness of this kind of music was decided upon as being very fitting to blend with the "Fifty Years of Freedom or Religious Jubilee" that will be held in connection with the Convention. None of this music will be described nor will there be any reflection cast upon the originators of what has often been said to be the only real American music of today, now in existence.

For the first time in fifty years or since Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation the most elaborate lot of these songs will be rendered. Some of them have not been sung since the days of slavery. The National chorister is already busy at work selecting such music from the Jubilee and plantation melodies as can easily be mastered by the chorus as well as by the Convention proper. All of the songs as being selected with a view of encouraging denominational singing during the week of the Jubilee.
SPECIAL DAYS AT THE FIFTY YEARS OF FREEDOM
Fraternal organizations and missionary societies are to have special days at Greenwood Park during the observance of the "Fifty Years of Freedom" in this city from September 17th to the 22nd. The local committee decided this at a special meeting. All secret and fraternal organizations are urged to agree upon such days as will be appropriate and convenient for them. The missionary societies are urged to do likewise. The plan is to have all of the fraternal organizations like the Odd Fellows, Masons, K. P.'s, Benevolence, Elks, Knight Templars and U. B. F.'s select their days. The visiting delegates who will be here with their fraternal greetings will add much to the occasion. The same plan is to be followed for the religious bodies, thus doing away with almost entirely with a denominational affair in so far as the Exposition and Jubilee are concerned.
The success of the movement is alread assured. It will have teh hearty endorsement of the leading fraternal men of this and other states. Prominent among some of of the men who have spent a quarter of a century in the development of some of the best known Grand Lodges throughout the Union. Invitations will be sent broad cast feel any timidity or modesty in through the press so that none will participating in the Jubilee or in this particular feature that will be observed next month.

ING AT GREENWOOD PARK.
The hotel waiters of the city of Nashville gave a grand picnic and outing Tuesday at Greenwood park, which was well attended by their friends. Too much praise cannot be given them for the kind and courteous treatment of their guests. Everything of the
shoat and lamb and everything that heart could wish in the way of a good old-fashioned home-cooked dinner—peach cobbler, blackberry roll, lemonade, ice cold butter milk. What was most unique and unusual was that you had nothing to spend your money for after having obtained your ticket. Everything was given freely; all the amusements and catables. The waiters contemplate making this an annual occurrence. Everyone was perfectly satisfied and the waiters all deserve credit for the gentlemanly way in which they served their guests.
The menu consisted of barbecued pig, barbecued lamb, boiled ham-hock with string beans, baked chicken pie, new potatoes with drawn butter, corn on cob, black berry cobbler, peach cobbler, lemonade. Mrs. Frank Trammell prepared the repast; this fact is sufficient guarantee of its being well cooked. Mr. Robt. J. Bragg was general manager. J. H. Rucks, secretary and headwaiter; M. M. White was the able assistant to the manager, Mr. J. A. Bragg was useful everywhere they put him. The following hotels took part; Hermitage, Bismarch, Duncan, Commercial and Hermitage Clubs. The waiters did themselves credit.
MOB CONTINUES SEARCH IN MARTIN
Globe Representative Alights in midst of mobly crowd—Met the train looking for suspects—colored people greatly excited—Humilated beyond endurance—Houses searched night and day—Different views from that of authorities.
Special to the Globe.
Martin, Tenn., Aug. 3.—As a special Globe representative alighted on the Dixie Flyer from Nashville that reaches Martin at 6:55, he found himself in the midst of a mob.
It was learned that this crowd has met every train that has run into Martin since the murder of a night watchman here. It seems that this night watchman had had some trouble with a former employee of the railroad whom he has arrested and who threatened to take his life as soon as he was released.
On the night of the killing a friend is said to have picked up the wounded man and held him up while he fired at his assailant. The question that puzzles the people is why the friend did not shoot the assailant himself.
Several Negroes have been arrested, but in each case have been able to prove that they had nothing to do with the killing. It is the general belief among the Negroes in other towns that a white man is the gully party. No expression was made by any Negroes in Martin on the case, as it seems to be the opinion that it was advisable to say nothing, but it could be seen that they are a humiliated people.
On Tuesday morning homes are being searched in all the colored sections of the town, and in one case the self-appointed deputies demanded that a man open his refrigerator that they might see if the guilty party was hiding there. Such tactics as these have made the affairs into a persecution rather than bring the guilty party to justice. It appears that the aim of the officers and those deputized is to humiliate the colored people rather than seek out the one who committed the murder.
Another strange feature is that the authorities did not bring in blood hounds to apprehend or attempt to run down the murderer. It is known that these dogs are considered very reliable by southern white people but as grave as this case is these valuable aids in such cases have not been used.
Up to the last report the guilty party had not been apprehended, or if it has been kept under the cover and irresponsible persons are continuing in their effort to lay the blame on some Negro.

Brooks-Flang
One of the most charming home weddings of the season was that of Miss Mosselle Flagg and Mr. Edward James Brooks, at the home of the bride, 222 North Eighth street, East Nashville.

This is an up-to-date town; it has banks, nst-class dry goods stores, drug stores, groceries, cotton gins, steam laundries, bottling works, paved sidewalks, electric lights and a telephone system. It is on the main line of a railroad. The ticket agent, telegraph operator and other persons connected with the business of the railroad in Boley are colored.
It has often been said that no considerable number of Negroes could live together without disorder, strife and lawlessness. Boley is the refutation of this slander. It is the universal testimony of the white traveling salesmen that Boley is one of the most orderly towns in Oklahoma. In fact the constable and police officers of the town are almost needless
One of the reasons why Boley is such an orderly, prosperous town is because of the high character of the people who have settled there. Caughey W. Roberts, the subject of this sketch, is a fine example of the class of people who are making Boley famous and demonstrating to the world that Negroes can build up a prosperous and orderly community. Roberts runs the leading bakery in the town. He is up to date in the conducting of his business and is one of the most progressive business men in that progressive town. The neb profits from his business amount to $1,200 to $1,500 annually. In addition to doing what he can to make his business a success he is also actively engaged in church and Sunday-school work and in other activities which make for the moral uplift of the community.
Roberts attributes much of his success to the hustling spirit of work and of thoroughness which he acquired while a student at Tuskegee Institute. In doing what we can for the general improvement of the community he says he is only carrying out the "Tuskegee Idea." His home was originally in Valdosta, Ga, but after his graduation in 1906, he followed Horace Greeley's advice, and went West to grow up with the country.
Although he has been in business but a few years he has accumulated considerable property in Boley, Taft, Clearview and other Oklahoma towns. The success of Roberts in the bakery business is an example of what can be done along this line in all parts of the South. In this field Negroes have an opportunity much greater than that they had in the field of catering twenty to fifty years ago in Northern cities. As long as there are people in the world just so long must they be fed. There will always be a demand for bakeries. In the South in the next few years there is going to be a greater demand than ever for them. Here is the opportunity for him who will take advantage of it.
Caughey W. Roberts success in the bakery business also demonstrates the value of learning one of the many trades which are taught at Tuskegee Institute. If he had not learned a trade he might now, instead of having a business netting $1,200 to $1,500 per year, be a day laborer, earning only three or four hundred dollars a year.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR STATE
FAIR BEING CONSIDERED
PAIR BEING CONSIDERED.
it is learned that some of those who were connected with the Old State are considering taking steps toward the reorganization of another company to hold the exhibit this year.
It will be remembered that the old Association went into liquidation; it was stated at the time that the charter would be formed by certain individuals, but this has not been done to this date. It is the opinion of some who are prominently connected with the other Association that the rules should stay as near as possible to the methods employed by the old company. It is believed that the State Fair can be made a great success and with this in mind it is expected that steps will be taken in the near future toward some definite arrangements for holding the fair.
The Women's Auxillaries are holding their meetings regularly. They have never disbanded and they are in as good shape now to make as good exhibit as they have ever made. They are in better shape because they have worked right on when the Association was in a warbling condition and since the liquidation they have gone right on in the even tenor of their way. Some definite steps will be taken in the near future and it is expected that by the next issue full details of the new plans will be announced.

Sporting News.
ATHLETICS AND A. M. E. CLASH
SATURDAY.
The two teams will fight it out for
first place—Capital City League is
drawing to a close.
The people of Nashville have been
furnished with the cleanest sport ever
witnessed and baseball is being
revised. The players have conducted
themselves in the most orderly way,
and the attendance, the free games
and also to the pay games have been
far beyond the highest hope of the
most optimistic.
The officials have been convinced that baseball in Nashville will receive the most liberal patronage from the people. The league will pull off two or three more double headers in the park before the session closes. One will be on the 18th and another at a date to be selected. It was decided Monday night to play a benefit game for the widow of Steve McCall, who died after an injury in one of the games played in the league. All of the teams agreed to join in the work to make this game one of the largest from point of attendance during the season. All advertising will be denoted by the newspaper and printing offices and all the proceeds will go to the fund.
In North Nashville on the Salem Town ground the A. M. E. and the Athletics will meet in a contest that will probably decide the championship of the league. This game is attracting interest and a large crowd will be on hand to witness the game
The game on June 23, Globe against Black Sox was protested by the Globe. This matter was settled Wednesday night and the game will be played over.
The game of August 2, Globe vs Y. M. C. A., was protested by the Y. M. C. A., and the protest was allowed and the game will be played over.

A STATEMENT FROM CHAIRMAN
HAYNES OF THE TRUSTEE
When asked concerning the article published in the Nashville Banner a few days ago concerning Roger Williams University, he said: "We know the condition of the school as a Trustee Board; we are on the inside and do not wish to air the troubles of the past term of the school. However, if this must be done, every detail may be brought to light, which will not do the school any good nor the former president. The school is a chartered institution and by-laws by which the Trustee Board may manage its business, also with an attorney in the person of Hon. C. C. Slaughter to advise. He is also a member of the Trustee Board. The institution is greatly in debt and we need nearly 840,000 to pay the bills of the institution.
"Those who are trying to keep up strife would do better if they would give money to pay the bills already made at the institution. Loud in praise to any man won't pay the bills of this institution. The Trustee Board of Roger Williams University does not wish to cast any reflection upon the former president of the school, but conditions have caused the change. Changes are made in city and county, also in private schools, but the schools are allowed to go on if those that are finding fault with the Trustee Board will get a set of men that will take this institution and pay the bills better than we have. The Board of Trustees will be too glad to turn the institution over to such a crowd to run it. Like all families and institutions we have had our troubles, yet under God we will do our duty as best we can to succeed. The Board has been a unit in all of its actions up to this hour."
McEWEN NOTES

Manlove, of Vanderbilt preached the morning sermon. Text: "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." A splendid dinner

was spread, enough to feed the people and then carry a plenty back name. The service concluded in the afternoon with a spiritual sermon by the pastor. Mrs. Daisy Lane had quite a number of little people in school Monday morning. She is the right woman in the right place in any school room and a model Christian in church services, that is willing and ready to do anything for the Lord. Mr. Cabert Adams died a few days ago, he left a wife and a host of friends to mourn his loss. His reremains were buried in Edgewood Cemetery. The funeral took place at 10 o'clock and was attended by Rev. S. H. Brown. Mrs. Fannie Childress, of Jackson and Master Emmitt Weathall were here last week visiting relatives. Mrs. E. Yates and daughter are planning a trip to Vanderlee this week to see her father. The dry, hot, weather has not as yet seemingly, affected the crops very much in our section. The wheat has done extra well and the corn in low lands is in a prosperous condition. The outlook is that one or two more rains will give the farmers a deal of corn.

ORDER OF THE EASTERN STAR
IN SESSION
Order of Eastern Star in Session.
Special to the Globe.
Jackson, Tenn., Aug. 4.—Another meeting being held here this week that is attracting a deal of attention is the Order of the Eastern Star, the women's department of the Masonic fraternity. The ladies played a conspicuous part in the public exercises and received many favorable compliments. Their sessions are being held in the Masonic hall with J. H. Adams the presiding officer.
Jackson, Teen, Aug. 5, 1913.—Excellior Grand Chapter O. E. S. met in the Masonic Hall at 10 a. m. The meeting was opened by the Grand Royal Patron, Brother J. H. Adams, of Nashville, opening song, "Blest be the tie that binds." Prayer by the Grand Chaplain Brother G. W. Whittaker. Then Grand Patron appointed a Credential Committee. After they had made a partial report showing that we had a quorum to open the Grand Chapter, the Grand Patron invited the grand officers to the East and the gavel was turned over to Grand Master, who proceeded to open the Grand Chapter in regular form. Mrs. M. A. Turner, of Pulaski, Tenn., the Past Grand Patron, was invited to the East by the Grand Patron. The Grand Patron appointed the following members to act at reporters for the different cities: Mrs. S. J. Carter and Mrs. Oden, of Nashville; Mrs. Henry and Mrs. Wilder, of Chattanooga; Mrs. Bowman, of Memphis for Clarksville; Mrs. Cox for Memphis. After the Grand Patron opened the Chapter in its usual beautiful form, the Grand Chapter was declared ready for business. The roll of grand officers was then called by the Grand Secretary, Mrs. Mosby, of Memphis. The hours for meeting are from 9 to 12 a. m. and from 2 to 5 p. m. By permission of the Grand Chapter the Grand Patron's wife, Mrs. Adams, was allowed to read his annual address, which was full of wisdom and instructions for the uplift of the O. E. S.
The Royal Grand Matron, Mrs. La-Prade, then read her address, which was one of the best that has ever been delivered before the Grand Excelsior Chapter. The Grand Associate Matron, Mrs. Jenkins, of Jellico, Tenn., also read her annual address and presented to the Grand Chapter a beautiful pillow with Amaranth design embroidered on it.
The Associate Grand Patron, Mr. Chas, Hayes, then read his address which was listened to with much pleasure, after which the Grand Chapter was called off until 2 p. m.
