Forward passing in hair-raising style, running down the field under punts, line plunging and pulling off all the stunts of the modern game of football, Fisk and Tuskegee played each other to a scoreless tie on Bennett. Field at Fisk University on Thanksgiving Day.
Playing the open game in which she was thought to be weak and in which her opponents were conceded to be strong, Tuskegee held Fisk safe at all stages of the game, and kept her own goal line entirely out of danger. Whenever Fisk followed one of her own punts into the enemy's territory, she was there only for a moment, a punt or a forward pass soon carrying the ball back into her own end of the field.
The forward passing of Tuskegee was a revelation to the Fisk supporters. Although the pass was incomplete more times than completed, yet it was not until near the close of the third quarter that Fisk began to solve the Tuskegee play along this line.
The pass was tried twenty times by Tuskegee. Seven times it was completed in grand style; three times it was intercepted, and ten times it struck the ground before or after striking a player. Once it was passed over the goal line and became incomplete in the end zone, a touchback, but was brought out to the point from which it was put in play and given to Fisk for a scrimmage. Fisk surprised her admirers by not trying the forward pass a single time. The much-vaulted strength of Fisk in open play was entirely lacking. She seemed to be playing the defensive game only.
The Tuskegee line and backs to a man played a magnificent game. The quarterbacks, Peek and Harper, ran the team with good judgment, and made a fine impression by their all-round good work. In one thing, however, Tuskegee was seriously lacking, she did not possess a finishing or scoring punch. Several times she was inside the Fisk twenty-yard line but on neither occasion was she able to get the ball across by any method which she tried. This was a serious defect in an otherwise formidable football machine. Fisk did fair work as a whole, but the work of Powell, Kindle, Suggs, Wesley, Zeigler and Keene stands out above that of the others. Their defensive work was just splendid.
A large crowd of fine people witnessed the game. Tallyhos, autos and vehicles of many descriptions were drawn up along the west side of the field. Most of these contained the adherents of Tuskegee. Some were horseback, but the ardent football fans, the real bugs, pressed against the ropes along the sidelines and pushed each other in the direction they wished the ball to go.
The heavens were gray and the afternoon was gloomy, but society came out in full force to cheer the young heroes who were fighting for their alma mater. It was also a disappointed crowd that wended its way from the campus, for all had expected a decisive game one way or the other.
Taken all in all, it seems that Coach Thomas put one over on Coach Welker. It has been repeatedly stated that the present team is the best that has ever represented Fisk. While there are some individuals on the present team who are as good athletes as ever played at Fisk, it is a debatable question, whether this team, taken as a whole, is the equal of some others that have represented the unit versity.

NASHVILLE, TENN.. FRIDAY NOVEMBER 28, 1913.
STANDARD LIFE MEN CAPTURE THE CITY
Swooping down upon Nashville with arguments, facts and figures that were persuasive and convincing, the officers of the Standard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, came as was predicted and the citizens of Nashville gave them the most royal reception that has ever been tendered to a new firm in any line of business that has made its debut in this city. On Friday night the spacious auditorium of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church presented a lovely scene. Men and women from all walks of life from every part of the city turned out to hear, to learn and to investigate what had been rumored concerning a real, old line, legal reserve, life insurance company with an industrial feature, operated by Negroes. From eight o'clock in the evening until eleven o'clock, sane and logical addresses were made, first, by the business and professional interests of the city, represented by Dr. F. A. Stewart, who spoke on behalf of the medical profession; Rev. G. W. Porter, D. D., pastor of the St. John A. M. E. Church, who spoke on behalf of his connection interests; Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, who spoke on behalf of the Baptists of the city and state; Dr. J. P. Crawford, supervisor of the City Schools of Nashville, who spoke

tor of the Occasion," Friday Night
at Mt. Olive Baptist Church.
on the city schools of Nashville and the opportunity they offer; Dr. G. H. Bandy, president of the Negro Board of Trade, who spoke on the business Negroes of Nashville; Mr. W. D. Hawkins, cashier Peoples Savings Bank & Trust Company, and Mr. C. N. Langston, assistant cashier One-Cent Savings Bank, who spoke on the Negro banks of Nashville, each speaker setting forth very beautiful and convincingly that Nashville was really the "City of Opportunity" and that as capital of the state it was fitting and very appropriate for the Standard Life to begin its operations from the center as well as from the capital. The evening was started off with such splendor and under such favorable auspices by a fervent prayer on the part of Dr. R. H. Boyd and by the excellent music by the First Baptist Church Choir, of East Nashville, assisted by Miss Geneva Bender, who rendered two excellent solos, that those present could hardly realize, until the conclusion responses were made, that it was a public mass-meeting.
The Standard Life Insurance Company was represented on the program by Mr. H. E. Perry, the president; Mr. T. K. Gibson, the manager of the health and accident department, and Mr. H. H. Pace, the secretary, all of Atlanta. They in turn and in the order named responded to the big-hearted welcomes that had been accorded them by the citizens of Nashville. The speaker at length was Mr. Pace, who impressed those present as being the orator of the occasion, while Mr. Gibson, the man with facts and figures, blended with an illustrative turn of mind and gestures that convinced, appeared to give the people what they wanted after such an array of arguments in behalf of Standard Life. He gave the facts. He told how the company put on the $100,000 with the state of Georgia for privilege to write life insurance. He exhibited certificates from five states where the Standard Life Insurance Company is doing business, and presented a chart showing the men behind the Standard Life. He was the illustrative "man of the hour."
At the conclusion, Mr. S. M. John-
son, manager of the Nashville District, who was there with a force of twenty-five or thirty representatives from the state of Kentucky as well as Tennessee, took charge of the audience. They all got busy at once talking Standard Life.
On Saturday an instruction meeting and a conference of the agents, district managers and representatives was held at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. It opened at ten o'clock and was divided into two sessions, morning and afternoon. The morning season was devoted to reports from agents and district managers. These reports covered every phase of insurance life. They were interesting at times and then amusing at times but showed conclusively that in the development of the insurance business the Negro has to be reckoned with.
The afternoon session was more of an instructive meeting. Talks were made by Dr. Adkins, of West Tennessee; Mr. Wm. Driskell, Mr. T. K. Gibson and Mr. H. E. Perry, of Atlanta; Mr. T. H. Hayes, of Memphis; and Mr. Woods, of Kentucky. The dean of the entire force in the insurance business was Mr. Wm. Driskell, the man who made the Union Mutual famous, the man who has given nineteen years to constant insurance work, and who is now actively at work as a big part of the Standard Life. Mr. Driskell gave personal experience on what constituted agents, both for the sick and accident as well as the ordinary straight life. From the opening of the exercises at Mt. Olive Church Friday evening at 8 o'clock to the closing of the Agency Instruction Meeting and Conference, Nashville was completely in the grasp of the Standard Life magnets.
The good results soon began to develop, as some of Nashville's leading men were interested all day Saturday in seeing more and learning more about the work. President Perry was seen just before leaving for Atlanta Saturday night in company with Mr. Dristell and Mr. Pace, and he declared that such a meeting as was pulled off in this city could not be duplicated. The arrangements, for the big demonstrations which proved such a success were in the hands of Mr. S. M. M. Johnson, manager of the Nashville District; Rev. Henry A. Boyd and Mr. Ira T. Bryant, members of the supervisory board. During the two days, Friday and Saturday, twenty-five agents and managers from the states of Kentucky and Tennessee were in town, which force was augmented by the regular list at work in Nashville.
TAYLOR AND COMPANY MAKING
EXTENSIVE REPAIRS.
A Globe representative called in to see Rev, Preston Taylor the first of the week, and it was with difficulty that he was able to get in the offices. Carpenters' tools and painters' brushes and material were on every side. Finally Mr. Taylor was found and he explained that the growth of his business compelled him to make extensive repairs and to add to his plant generally. The show room is being enlarged and improved, and when completed will rank among the finest in the city. Recently while on a trip through the eastern part of the state, Mr. Taylor stopped in Chattanooga to visit his old friend, Mr. Franklin, the president of the National Undertaker's Association. While there he was taken by Mr. Franklin to visit one of the supply houses and in a conversation the question of horses came up. Mr. Taylor says he had no thought of buying horses, but before he left the place he had bought six. The horses were there in the stables, and they are of the finest stock and none better can be found in the city.
PABY RODE STREET CAR
FENDER
New Orleans, Nov. 19.—While seated in an outgoing South Rampart street car tonight, City Detective James Glynn heard the persistent wailing of an infant and seeing none in the car began to investigate. After three blocks had been traversed he stepped out on the front platform and called the motorman's attention to a baby crying lustily in the carender. The child was rescued uninjured. While debating what to do with it, a woman in the crowd about them gave vent to a shriek in the recognition of her baby, snatched it from the arms of the motorman and carried it away. The child was caught in the fender while it was playing in the street in front of its home.

FISK 26. A. B. C. 9 RESULT OF BIG GAME IN ATLANTA NOVEMBER 26.
Saturday at Athletic Park a large crowd was on hand to witness the annual football game between State Normal and Burrell Academy, of Florence, Ala. These teams met run. Two attempts through line net no gain, so Lewis dropped back to the 45-yard line and executed one of the most perfect dropkicks even seen on the Morehouse campus. After an exchange of punts Morehouse carried the ball to Fisk's 10-yard line when she was held for downs on the next play. However, Fisk fumbled. More house recovering the ball for a touch down. Morehouse failed to kick goal Early in the second quarter More house again scored on a well-executed place kick just at the close of the
State Normal kicked off to Burrell, who returned the ball 25 yards. On the first line-up Burrell gained two yards through the line, but on the next attempts they failed to gain, and the ball went to State Normal. The boys from the hill at once began a rapid fire attack, the ball was snapped to Boyd, who executed one of the longest forward passes to Downs ever witnessed in this city. Davis kicks a beautiful goal from placement on 30-yard line, the ball sailing many yards beyond the goal post. On the next kick-off Burrell returned the ball sixty yards by beautiful interference and swiftness of the player. State Normal braced and held for downs. Downs made 5 yards through center. Downs made fifteen yards on right end; Davis 15 through center. State Normal scores a touchdown. Davis fails to kick goal. First quarter, State Normal 9, Burrell 0.

Downs makes 10 yards around the end, Davis 15 through center. Boyd carries the bail within 5 yards of the goal. Vaughn scores touchdown. State Normal 35, Burrell 0. This ended the scoring in one of the best played games ever witnessed in Athletic Park. There were times when Burrell showed flashes of speed, but they did not have the necessary skill and stamina to score. The score does not give a clear conception of the game Burrell played. It was not a case of a bad team and a good one. But two good teams, and one of them being better than the other. State Normal is getting ready for bigger game in the future, and already they are being touted as rivals of Fisk before many seasons pass. Coach Robinson has a splendid nucleus around which to build a strong team next year.

ter three attempts to buck the line Morehouse punted to the middle of the field. From this punt, Kindle carried the ball 15 yards on an end run. Two attempts through net net no gain, so Lewis dropped back to the 45-yard line and executed one of the most perfect dropkicks even seen on the Morehouse campus. After an exchange of punts Morehouse carried the ball to Fisk's 10-yard line when she was held for downs on the next play. However, Fisk fumbled. Morehouse recovering the ball for a touchdown. Morehouse failed to kick goal. Early in the second quarter Morehouse again scored on a well-executed place kick just at the close of the quarter. Zeigler, right end for Fisk, tackled the Morehouse quarter back of the goal line for a safety, making the score 9 to 5 for Morehouse. Fisk started off at the beginning of the third quarter with a rush, carrying the ball from the center of the field to the 10-yard line before being stopped. Kindle got loose a few minutes later for a 40-yd, run, but dropped the ball when tackled. At this stage of the game the play was fast and furious much time being taken out and many substitutes sent in, yet Fisk could not quite get away.
The opening of the fourth quarter found the ball in Fisk's possession near the center of the field. Up until this time Fisk had used an open-style of play, but here she started her line plunging, alternating with the backs. She carried the ball 60 yards on straight football through the line. Kindle scored the first touchdown. Not satisfied, however, Wesley, left end for Fisk, intercepted a forward pass for the second touchdown five minutes later. Not to be outidone, Vernon Smith, from guard position, went through with a second forward pass for a third and last touchdown, making the score 25 to 9. The best of feeling prevailed all through the game. Morehouse, while great in victory was still greater in defeat and showed their fine spirit in taking defeat so well. There are only words of praise for Morehouse, $A_3$ to the Fisk team, they played the game for every ounce they had, typical of the Fisk spirit.
THE CARR HOME DESTROYED BY FIRE
Saturday night about six o'clock a fire broke out in the residence of Mr. Ben Carr, on Home street back of Hadley park, that destroyed the twelve-room residence, many of the outhouses and barns and the residence of a white man named Johnson, next door. The home of a white family named Adkins also caught, but was saved by the timely arrival of the fire company. Mr. Carr was the heaviest looser, his home being a twelve-room building on which he had recently made extensive improvement. Mrs. Carr had recently returned from the country, where she had put up one hundred cans of preserves and canned fruits, other food stuff, such as potatoes, cured meats, flour, lard, and in fact Mr. Carr stated to a Globe representative that he had enough food in the house of a staple character to last him two years. Sunday morning spectators and friends of Mr. Carr's, who went out to the scene of the fire, witnessed a peculiar incident. A barrel of flour that was just opened Saturday morning had been burning all night, and potatoes that were not entirely burned up were cooked as if they had been roasted for dinner. Large hams and sides of meat and buckets of lard were totally destroyed, in fact nothing was saved but a piano and an empty trunk. Mr. Carr said that his loss would easily go above $4,000. The family is stopping with friends in the city, until arrangements can be made. Neilfer Mr. nor Mrs. Carr were at home when the fire broke out, they being in the city doing some shopping and marketing and when they reached a distance in which they could see that their home was being destroyed by fire, Mrs. Carr was frightened as to the safety of their children, but when they all were led to her she took them in her arms and rejoiced that they had been saved and consolled herself that the case was no worse.
DR. PHILLIPS OPENS NEW
OFFICE
Dr. J. T. Phillips, one of Nashville's leading physicians, has opened a new office at 1120 Cedar street, where he has a splendid suite of room. Dr. Phillips is a son of Bishop C. H. Phillips, and is well known in this city, having lived here for many years. His many friends hope for him an extensive practice in his profession.

Mational Order of the Mosaic Templars of Amercia LOCATED IN
Little Rock, Ark.
This order was oranized in 1882 by J. E. Bush and C. W. Keatts, two Negroes, and has long since passed the experimental stage.
HALF MILLION DOLLARS PAID TO WIDOWS AND ORPHANS.
The National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America conducts Disability, Endowment and Burial Departments, and through these departments, has paid to widows and orphans and beneficiaries of deceased members the enormous sum of a Half Million Dollars.
SUBSTANTIAL PROOF OF RELIABILITY.
Failures and frauds have been so numerous in organizations of this character that the public is naturally skeptical. We cite you the following evidences of our reliability, and same may be verified by spending a little time investigating:
The order is now erecting a National Temple Building in Little Rock, Ark., at a cost of $60,000, the same being erected out of the order's surplus funds, and no extra building taxer assessment has been leaved upon the members. This has never been heard of in the history of fraternal orders. This order has never leaved an extra tax upon its members to pay off any kind of obligation, and not a single instance can be cited during thirty-two years, where the order has failed to meet promptly its just obligations to the people. In our Endowment department, the ninety-two daywal, which appears in most certificates, has never been taken advantage of, because the order has always had sufficient proof to meet its claims whenever proof of death is made. Our Endowment department is national and has been inspected from time to time by various insurance commissors. The order has come out of each inspection with flying colors. As we grow older, instead of decreasing, our Endowment surplus is growing, as the following will show:
A LESSON IN FIGURES
RATES PER YEAR AND BENEFITS

lows: Should death occur during the
first twelve calendar months, $100;
after the first twenty-four calendar
months, $200, after the first thirty-six
calendar months, $300.
LOCAL LODGE DIVISIONS.
The order operates in four divisions, and charter fees for organizing new lodges are as follows:
Temples for adults males, cost of charter, $15; Chambers for adults females, cost of charter, $10; Palaces for children, cost of charter, $5; Uniform Rank, cost of charter, $5.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR ORGANIZERS.
The order is now conducting a nation-wide campaign for members and is allowing organizers the most liberal contract ever given by any fraternal order in the world. During the past twenty-four months we have organized 600 new lodges. Some organizers have earned as high as $200 per month. We allow organizers, under extension plan, to set up local lodges for the price of the charter fee. For instance, an organizer would set up a temple of sixty men at $2 each; that would amount to $120. His charter would cost $15, leaving him a net profit of $105. We are anxious to engage active young men and women in all parts of the United States to organize lodges.
we are anxious to secure organizers in every section of Tennessee. This offer will not remain open indefinitely, and you had better write today for terms.

SOUTH PITTSBURG NOTES
(The reporter wishes to apologize for having this column blank last week. Being over busy was the cause.)

At its last meeting at Little Bethel a very interesting program was carried out. The recent revivals at Mt. Bethlehem) Baptist and Randolph Chapel J. E. Church by Revs. M. Cannon, of Decherd, and Rev. G. W. Cain, of this place, resulted in a general religious awakening. The public school concert, which was put on by the Fourteenth District School at Mt. night of the 18th, was the best of the season. The music, both instrumental and vocal, was exceptionally good. Mrs. J. A. L. Elliot was directress of music. The declaiming division was ed by little Miss Bertha Ella Gaines who reached perfection's height and was followed by her peers. The Hoop Drill of the twenty-four girls representing the national color made a great hit.

MILAN NOTES.

WINS BLUE RIBBON AT KNOX-VILLE.
Upon the arrival of the Exhibits of the National Baptist Church Supply Company, of this city from the Knoxville, Tennessee, it was learned that the exhibits had taken a blue ribbon. This distinction is regarded by the people of Nashville as recognition of the ability of the Negro Cabinet maker to cope with the most skilled workmen in the cabinet linet hattttt.tm$HRDLUUU cabinet line that the country may produce.
The furniture that was sent to Knoxville was made in the shops of the company here in Nashville. The shipment was made early in the spring and remained at the Exposition throughout the celebration, where it was inspected, criticised and commented on by thousands of people, well qualified to express their opinion on matters of art and skill. In point of workmanship and material used the shipment was a psilendid exhibit and made a display and brings greater recognition to this manufacturing firm which already has made itself famous.
The exhibit consisted of a beautiful church pew, three chairs, Gothic in design, upholstered in red plush and a massive pulpit. The entire lot was finished in gloden oak and the chairs were made of quartered sawed oak. Secretary Boyd was not apprised of the awarding to this exhibit of the blue ribbon till the shipment was unpacked in the show room of the factory.
In writing to Secretary Boyd, the President of the Exposition stated "Your exhibit was very, very fine indeed, we thank you for it."
Along with the church furniture exhibit of Negro Dolls, that were given first place in the admiration quint put on display, aided en so of successful and commendable secrecy but the parallel is not sufficiently true.
He admits that Negro clerks have been placed at desks separated from those used by white employees, and that they eat at separate tables in the lunch room, and that in other ways unnecessary juxtaposition of white and colored employees is avoided, all of which, while contrary to the ideal of race equality which is a national profession, must be judged with some consideration of the circumstances and the practical phases of the problem which faces officialdom at Washington at the present time. The fact of racial sentiment cannot be tolerated to the extent of inflicting injustice on the dark-skinned citezen, especially in the official life of the nation.
The unwritten law setting apart this offence of Register of the Treasury for a negro never was justifiable. The negro of merit is entitled to recognition in any office for which he is fit—not merely in one particu-

lar appointment. But to have carried this mistake farther and, even with 'reindly motive, to have created a "black reservation" in the Federal service to which negro employees should be transferred, or negro applicants qualifying under the civil service laws should be appointed, would give affront to national sentiment, and its demand for justice for all races, and, whatever might be said in behalf of its expediency, it would have been a gross abandonment o the idealism which is the mark o this Administration. The National Government cannot go backward in its dealing with the race question. It must take eht negro as he is, give hif his due as an individual citizen to-day, and cannot, even as a matter o expediency, draw a color line which obliterates personal merit—The Philadelphia Evening Bullitin.
PRESIDENT ELECTED TO TAKE CHARGE OF WALDEN. The news has just leaked out that a president has been selected for Walden University. The name of the new head of this famous institution is Dr. Burgin, and he halls from the state of Maine. Dr. Burgin was in the city last week looking over the field, but when he left he was not able to say whether he would accept the position or not. He returned to his home in Maine, and an answer is expected from him at any time.
Walden is one of the oldest schools in the south for the education of the colored youth, and enjoys the distinction of having as members of her alumni some of the leading men of the race. It was thought for a time that the school would be moved to some other city, but when Bishop Henderson took charge of the work of the church in this state, he set about to put new life in the school, and as a result the members of the conference and the church generally bestirred themselves and made it known that they love the institution, and desire that it remain in the ranks to battle against ignorance and superstition. Dr. G. W. Hubbard has been acting Dean since the resignation of Dr. Kumler, but the work of both institutions is too much for him, and the Board is not losing any time in preparing to relieve him. It is expected that the gentleman selected to fill the position will give an answer within the next few days.
STATE NORMAL TO PLAY BURBELL ACADEMY.
Next Saturday at 2:30 p. m. the football team represents the A. & I. State Normal School of this city, and the Burrell Academy of Florence, Ala., will meet at Athletic Park in what is expected to prove one of the best gridiron battles of the season. The Burrell boys come with an excellent record, having lost but one game in the last three seasons. The State Normal, having but one year's experience behind it, has developed a very aggressive eleven, whose goal line has

‘Our National Evils,
Amid the multiplicity of evils that
afflict this nation, as regards her
Negro citizenship, there are two that
stand at the head of the list, namely,
Women and work. If these two things
can be properly adjusted our race dif.
ferences will pale into insignificance.
If the white men of the nation will
Jet the Negro women alone and give
the black men a square deal in the
struggle for bread, all will be well.
But these two things it seems impos:
sible for him to do. Negro women
are held up to the world as immoral,
but the fact is ignored that white men
‘of means and high station in life ave
constantly hounding them. The bold-
ness of these fiends is often outrage-
ous. They make uo pretense to hide
thelr hellishness. ‘This practice on
the part of so many white men causes
the ignorant Negroes to believe that
there is a great virtue in the mixture
‘of races, whetier lawfully or unlaw-
fully, he believes it is right, and Is
sieged with n desire to carry out what
white men teach by this practice.
‘The work evi! is clothed in equally
ss many disguises. The laboring
class of white people systematically
bar the Negro from most of the 1u-
crative employments, not because he
feels that he is degraded by working
beside a black man, but because he
has learned that by playing on the
racial cord he can cover up his sys
tem of discrimination, and so the
Practice has been and 1s being car
Tied on to great detriment of not only
the black man, but the white man as
well, and the country as a whole
White men should have the racial
respect to compel them to let black
women alone after dark as well as in
the daylight. White men should ac
cord black equal opportunities to earn
‘an honest living.
INTEREST GROWING) IN CAN-
BAIONE Zt;
Very encouraging reports have been
Made this week on the outlook of the
successful campaign for funds for the
erection of a $100,000 Y. M. C. A.
building, These remarks have not
Deen confined to the idle passer-by.
‘They have come from sober, far-
thinking, successful men in all walks
of life. ‘In the face of these develop:
ments, Executive Secretary Sanders
and Chairman Caruthers, together
with the entire Committee of Man:
agement, feel that the action taken
by the committee at its recent ses-
f0n {s not far-fetched, but that it is
striking in time and that the results
‘will bring to Nashville real success,
meaning as it will a handsome, well
equipped Young Men's Christian As
sociation Building, for lack of which
the Negro men and boys of Nashville
are suffering. It was not stated tunis
week, neither could it be determined,
whether any word had been received
from Mr. Moreland, who is to conduct
the campaign, but who is to be sup
ported by every man, woman ant
child in the city. But it was said
that whenever the campaign does be

On last Wednesday evening, November 19th the waiters of the Nashville Commercial Club banqueted W. M.

Braggs, head waiter of the Duncan Hotel, Mr. Rucks, head waiter, Blasmark Hotel, John H. Green, head waiter, Commercial Hoc. C. B. Benjamin, a popular hotel man of Detroit, Mich., and A. E. Clark, Real Estate dealer, O. O. Clendonen. Each speaker paid a tribute of deepest respect to Mr. Young and spoke glowing terms of his ability as a head-waiter, not only in trying to give satisfaction to his employee, but as a man who tried in every respect to have those who worked under him to aspire for higher and noble lives. Head-waiter Rucks and "In my estimation Mr. Young is the greatest headwaiter in Nashville.
After the speaker, Mr. Young in a few brief remarks responded: Gentlemen, I wish you knew how grateful I feel to you for the many good things you have said about me tonight. I haven't words to thank you for the honor shown me I can only thank you one and all and if indeed I have made any success as a head-water it is because as you have said, I have tried to keep others. I always make it a rule to allow a follow a chance, and I think as hotel men, we should meet together, be more congenial, and in so doing will do much good for God and humanity.
Messrs. M. M. White and A. E. Ferrell were Committee on Arrangement and did all in their power to make it pleasant for all present. Those present were A. E. Clark, B. H. January, J. H. Green, N. A.

Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God, in his wise Providence, to remove from our midst by death Mrs. Willie Johnson, Secretary of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, who was a faithful worker for the uplifting of womankind in their various spheres of work, so creditably did she perform the duties assigned to her. She was honest and upright and highly interested in the cause which we are all engaged. We realize that the State Federation has sustained a great loss in the demise of our lamented dead. We trust that all things were well with her, and that she has gone to reap her reward, beyond this vale of tears. Therefore be it

REFUSED TO INSURE NEGRO
PROPERTY.
Quite an excitement prevailed among some of the residents of Nashville during the past two or three weeks because of an announcement by an insurance agency firm of this city that they had received instructions not to renew any insurance on Negro property and to cancel that insurance which they already had on property belonging to Negroes. This announcement caused much unrestiness on the part of some of the large property owners of Nashville who were carrying insurance and who would naturally be effected by such action. As soon as the rumor gained circulation a quiet investigation was made and it was found that a certain fire insurance firm of this city that has been in business for a number of years had received instructions from their home office to cancel policies of Negro property and not to reinsure any more.
No cause was given for the action except an off-chanded statement that they did not care for the business, and this statement was made with another statement that no other companies represented in Nashville would insure.
It was the latter statement that caused the small pandemonium that reigned for a while. But further investigation discloses that fact that the last assertion was not true, that there is one of the best and largest insurance firms in Nashville inviting the patronage of Negroes and guarantees that they will put their policies in as reliable and as safe companies as can be found represented in Nashville for the risk involved.
The first person consulted as soon as the announcement was made was Mr. Robert H. Fite, a member of the firm of Dudley-Fite & Company, who stated: "Yes, we have heard that certain companies or concerns in this city were not insuring Negro property, and that they had received such instructions from their home office. Only this week we have insured quite a deal of property for people whose polices had been cancelled as a result of this action on the part of some of the agents. But we have never found an occasion in all of our years of business to rue the day we have taken Negro risks, as we have found them very satisfactory. "I do not care to use the names of the parties whose firms refuse to take Negro insurance," continued Mr. Fite, "as I do not know the motive assigned."
There are Negro concerns in this city that carry unusually large policies, and there are over forty-five thousand members of the race within the incorporate limits of the city. Palatial and splendid homes whose prices run up into the thousands belong to these people, who will no doubt appreciate this announcement and will be glad to learn that while one or two companies may have issued such an order, it is possible for them to obtain safe risks on their homes and valuables. At first it was thought that the rumor was groundless, but the continued investigation proved that it was really true, but it was stated
among the business men that it would not effect the interests of Nashville to any great extent.
AT REST.
Mrs. Josie Harding Clemens died at the home of her mother, Mrs. Tennie Harding on Elm Hill avenue September the 12th after four months of suffering. God touched her weary frame and she sleeps, the angels in heaven must have welcomed her up there. She wanted to hear some old time song and she was asked if the Lord called her; did she think she would be saved; she said, I am not afraid to die. Then she fell asleep. She leaves two lovely daughters, Alberta and Odessa who will need the care of a mother, but God has promised to take care of the motherless children.
Y. M. C. A.
The Y. M. C. A. Thanksgiving reception that the Committee of Management voted to have at the St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, has been deferred on account of the strenuous work on the part of the secretary, the chairman and others in connection with the $81,000 campaign which was pitched about two weeks ago for the Central Association.
Dr. Bruner, from Chicago, spoke to the men last Sunday. His message was well received by all the men present. Next Sunday at 4:30 p.m., Dr. W. M. Anderson, of Dallas, Texas, will speak to the Men's Meeting. All men are urged to be present. Dr. Anderson some years ago was engaged in pastoral work here in the city. The men who knew him then will be glad to greet him at the meeting Sunday.
The plan outlined by the Committee of Management at the meeting November 13th, for arousing an additional interest among the clergymen is being pushed as rapidly and efficiently as possible. Many of the pastors are not able to use the fifth Sunday for the special benefit of the Y. M. C. A., as was asked, but will turn their churches over some the second Sunday in December and others later. It is encouraging to note the growing interest among the ministers for this special line of work for men and boys.
Hon J. C. Napier delivered a aa address to a packed house in West Nashville last Sunday at 3 p. m. The meeting was worked up by Mr. Wm. Crawford, Mr. John Cook and Mr. John Adams. Mr. Napier's address was about an hour in length and interesting from start to finish. Never did a West Nashville audience listen to a more enthusiastic Y. M. C. A. message. There are those who seem to think that Mr. Napier's interest in his people, regardless of class or condition, is even keener now than it was before his brief sojourn in Washington as registrer of the U. S. Treasury.
BAPTIST STATE BOARD MEETING.
For the past week the president of the Tennessee Baptist State Convention has been expected to issue a call for the meeting of the Executive Board. This meeting is scheduled to be held in Nashville because of its central locality, but a message sent through to the Rev. A. L. Bartlett, D. D. who resides in Memphis, brought no intelligence as to where the meeting will be held. But it is known that the Rev. Mr. Bartlett, although a West Tennessee, favors the calling of the meeting here for the large attendance that it will at

Special to the Globe
Rogersville, Tenn., Nov. 24. - Swift Memorial football team had their first game Saturday, November 22, on Franklin field. The school was divided into two teams, viz., The Athenians and Spartans. The Athenians were led under Captain A. Logan and the line-up was as follows: C. P. Heard; R. G., Armstrong; R. T. L. Ewing; R. E., J. Wolf; L. G., S. Parker; L. T., J. Porter; L. E., W. Henry; Q. B., F. Poyston; F. B., Brown; R. H., A. Logan; L. H., W Boyd.
The Spartans were led under Capt. —. His line-up was as follows: C, Foster; R. G., Flock; R. T., S Boyd; R. E. D, Morrison; L. G, D, Hord; L. T, Freeman; L. E, H, Morrison; Q. B, F. Gilabens; F. B, Webster; R. H, Mahone; L. H, J. R, Upton. The game was called at 2:45 p. m. and both teams went into the game with a determination to win. The fight was hard and cheers were sent up by the spectators from the side line. Captain A. Logan's team was rather light, almost composed of boys of little experience, and it was thought they would lose, but it was only a short time before Brown was called to carry the ball. He made a gain around the end of the heavyweight team for 25 yards. The game became more interesting and the same play was called and Brown went around the end for a touchdown. The heavy team tried several times to send Mahon around the end of the opposing team, but each time William Henry met him in defeat. Mahon made a touchdown on the light team by receiving a forward pass of 20 yards from Captain Upton. This was the only redeeming feature for the heavyweight team. Some of the star players. A Logan is noted for his long runs around the end; Brown for his keen sense of getting through the line; Mahon and Upton, for their fine defensive playing; L. Ewing and F. Royston deserve special mention. The game ended 5 to 5. The people are looking forward to a good game Thanksgiving.
SENATOR LEE ASSISTS DESERVING SOUTHERNER.
Information has just reached Nashville that the senior senator of Tennessee, the Honorable Luke Lea, has assisted greatly a young man of the South in getting a much deserved promotion. It appears that the young man has been in one of the departments at Washington for a number of years, but in spite of his qualifications and efforts, no recognition was given him. Senator Luke Lea became interested in the case through solicitation on the part of friends in this city and the young man has not only been promoted, but transferred to a better department and is now a veterinarian inspector's assistant at the stock yards in Chicago, Ill., thus filling one of the important few positions filled by Negroes in this line of work.
You are cordially invited to inspect our new line of Negro Dolls for the ensuing year.

CHANCES STILL GOOD.
Undaunted and undismayed by failures to get any positive assurance about the time of the mid-winter session of the National Negro Press Association, the people who are working in the interest of Nashville have redoubled their efforts. It was said this week that pressure would be brought to bear on the powers that be to persuade them to award to Nashville the meeting of the Executive Committee, which is to be held in connection with the mid-winter session. Judging from the way the forces are lining up, some credence can be given to this report that the battle has just now begun and that there will be no surrendering or giving down until Nashville has won, or that it has been decided against her. But it did develop that there was nothing to the report which is being circulated to the effect that "the cards had been stacked against Nashville because of its southern location," as it was found that Nashville's closest competitor for this meeting is a southern city.
The secretary of the Association was non-committal. He said that the matter would not be left to him, that it would remain with the chairman of the Executive Committee and with the president of the Association. So it was determined at a conference held between men of the business interests, to make a formal application with arguments setting forth why the Association would be really benefited where it is positive that a large delegation can be induced to come.
