Lived to a Good Old Age—Was Born in Virginia—Sold With His Mother When a Baby and Brought to Tennessee—Leased. Previous Master's Farm—Saved His Money and Purchased Home Reared Family.
Special to the Globe.
Silver Springs, Tenn., Dec. 15.—Mr. John Davis, one of the oldest citizens of this community, died Thursday, December 11th, at 2 p.m. All the members of his family were at his bedside to see him breathe his last. He was buried from Ruthland Church. Dr. Wm. Haynes delivered the funeral oration, assisted by Dr. Dan Bloodworth, the pastor. Mr. Davis was 75 years old. He had been an active member of Rut and Church for forty-seven years, and a deacon for forty years. He was born in Virginia and sold at six weeks old with his mother and brought to Tennessee. One year after Emancipation he married and leased his former master's plantation. By economy, thrift and industry he accumulated money sufficient to buy a home of his own where he lived in comfort for many years. He was the father of a large family, and though he could not read and write, it was his highest ambition to educate his children
Two of his daughters, Misses Pinkie and E. J. Davis, were educated in the public schools of Nashville. One of his sons, Wm. Davis, is a first-class carpenter and painter. Odia, Harvey and J. Arthur Davis were educated at Roger Williams University at Nashville. J. Arthur Davis, after taking the degree of A.B., took the degree of LL. B, at Howard University and has been considered one of the ablest writers of the country. Mr. John Davis was a man of great influence and commanded the highest respect of all among both races. The daughters of his slave master wept at his grave. His home was not only a model, but his family was one of the most comfortably sustained in his section of the State. He leaves to bereave his death a devoted wife and six children.
MADAM HACKLEY HAS LARGE
AUDIENCE AT COLUMBIA.
Special to the Globe.
Columbia, Tenn., Dec. 10.-Columbians were offered, and received an unusual musical treat in the appearance of Madam E. Azalia Hackley, of Philadelphia, Pa., on last evening. This engagement had been secured by Prof. J. W. Johnson, who had previously arranged with Madam Hackley to visit Columbia at her earliest convenience. The spacious auditorium of Mt. Lebanon Missionary Baptist Church was comfortably filled at an early hour by an expectant audience, who were well paid for their visit. A simple description in words, however prolific, does not nor cannot do justice to the matchless powers of this gifted woman, for one must see hear and know her himself in order to form any just estimate of her great ability as a true, genuine artist in the musical arena.
Madam Hackley disappointed none of her auditors at Columbia. Again she is the more to be admired and appreciated when her mission is known, for she is undoubtedly a true exponent of Negro womanhood and a splendid example of the possibilities of the race. It is said she has disposed largely of her means and powers for the common good. Her demonstrations in voice and physical culture were a revelation to many. The audience was spellbound by her utterances and general expressions were complimentary.
The net proceeds of the entertainment will go to supplement a fund designed to procure a piano for the City Public School. Several voluntary subscriptions were offered by individuals present.

THE ZIONIST MOVEMENT
ITS SELF-SACRIFICING
FOUNDER.
By Annie M. Garfinkle.
Over eighteen centuries of dispersion has not destroyed the Jewish love for Palestine, and with a devotion such as only the strongest souled people are capable of, the Jews still long for the home of their fathers. This love has survived over eighteen centuries of cruel persecutions, of continual wanderings, of terrible massacres, of the bloody institutions of Torquemanda and the horrible humiliation of all centuries and times.
In the early part of the twelfth century the great poet and philosopher, Jehuda Halevi, wrote: "O city of the world, beautiful and
"O city of the world, beautiful and majestic,
For thee I long from distant western home.
O that on eagle's wings to thee I might come nigh.
DR. STEWART ADDRESSES Y. M.
C. A.
At the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday Dr. F. A. Stewart discussed the "Human Body." It is thought by many that if Dr. Stewart could be induced to repeat the discourse at least three hundred men and boys would avail themselves of the privilege to hear him.
Next Sunday Dr. C. V. Roman will speak on the "Mind." The boys club in West Nashville directed by Mr. Crawford are planning some great things in the near future.
Rev. Mr. Ellis, pastor of Seny's Chapel M. E. Church will hold a special service in the interest of the Young Men's Christian Association Sunday morning at eleven o'clock.
The big meeting planned by Prof. Keith two weeks ago will be repeated at an early date. It is interesting to note the great work that a Young Men's Christian Association, with proper management and backing is able to do in a community.
Miss Gussie Bostick after several weeks of illness is able to be up again.

He had quite a number of relatives throughout various parts of the United States and some in Mexico.
Mr. Bumbrey came to San Antonio about 70 years ago, long before Emancipation and was a trusted employee of the United States, having charge of a convalescence between Antonio and Monterey, Mexico. He came to Texas from Ohio and returned to his old home only once in 70 years. He was a devout member of New Hope Baptist Church and a Senior Deacon. He left at the time of his death an extensive estate, being the only Negro in San Antonio to hold realty on E. Commerce street between the Southern Pacific's New Station and the Alamo Plaza. Only recently a new two story building has been erected on one of these lots.
NEWS RECEIVED IN NASHVILLE

CLARKSVILLE PAPER SPEAKS IN HIGHEST PRAISE OF MME. HACKLEY
The Leaf-Chronicle, the daily paper at Clarksville, Tenn., in the issue of December 15 speaks in the highest praise of Mme. Hackley who appeared there in her musical lecast night by about fifteen of ourure. The Leaf-Chronicle says:
A rare musical treat was enjoyed musicians who went to St. John's Baptist Church to hear a musicallecture by Madame Azalia Hackley, a Negro woman, who is not only a finished musician and the possessor of a wonderful voice, but who is devoting her life to the uplift of her people.
Her work now is the founding of a memorial school for the training of the Negro in all branches of vocal art. This school is only open to graduates of the High School, for Madame Hackley's aim is to impress upon the Negro the relation of hygiene, physiology and education to voice culture—that it is impossible to do anything with the voice without the aid of a sound body and a trained mind.
Madame Hackley has a beautiful soprano voice and gave selections from the Barber of Seville, the Polonaise from Mignon, and a number of other songs in a lighter vein, besides some of the old plantation melodies. She came here under the auspices of the Negro city school and the proceeds of last night's musical was given to the domestic science department.
There is an effort being made by some of the white people to have her here later to sing in the opera house.
HOWARD CONGREGATIONAL
CHURCH HAS CALLED
NEW PASTOR.
At a recent business meeting of the members of Howard Congregational Church it was decided by a majority vote of the membership to call a new pastor. Rev. T. M. Bloomfield of Des Moines, Iowa was the choice of the congregation. In addition to the call a petition of the membership has been forwarded to the reverend and a reply is expected from him daily. Rev. Bloomfield is a graduate of Fisk University of the class of 1909. He also graduated from Oberlin in 1912. He married Miss Sophia Overstreet, one of Nashville's leading young ladies who enjoyed the social life of a host of friends in this city. Rev. G. W. Hemphill has been serving the church since the resignation of Rev. Imes, but it is understood that he could not spare the necessary time from business to give the church work the attention it demands.

An excellent program was rendered preceding the burning of the mortgage in which the Deacons participated, they all made an interesting talk telling of the history of the church. Mr. Hightower gave an account of the early struggles of the church which was interesting from every point of view. In his remarks, Mr. Hightower stated that the church first met in a church on 4th Avenue known as the Hightower Hall. The next meeting place was on State street and finally the third on 8th Avenue, in the old stone church, that used to be the meeting place of the Methodist Congregation. It was while there that the deal was made for the lot where the church now stands. The older deconna told of the struggles of the early church and were high in their praise of the aid rendered by other churches and the public generally. Dr. F. A. Stewart, was on the program to represent the city, and he made an impressive talk on what a church should possess to attract visitors. He grew eloquent as he recounted some of his experiences with some of the members of that church and when he told his known edge of the sacrifices that had been made by the congregation that the First Baptist Church might be a reality. Dr. Ellington the present pastor read the names of the deceased members. This was a pathe part of the evening program. The mortgage was then presented to Mrs. Seay one of the oldest members of the church by Deacon Wm. H. Young and in the presence of the congregation she stuck a match and burned the mortgage in to ashes. The members and visitors then repaired to the Sunday-school Auditorium where refreshments were served.

J. W. THOMAS JR. PASSES AWAY
PRESIDENT AND GENERAL MANAGER
N. C. & ST. L. RAILWAY.
Hemorrhage From the Lungs Hastened the End—Was Notable Railroad Man—Started in as Water Boy—Entire Life Given to Service of Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Rail way—Was Well Known.
The end came to Mr. John W. Thomas, Jr., President and General Manager of the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway, at 2 o'clock Wednesday morning at his residence, 123 Ninth Avenue, South. Since Sunday he had been desperately ill, and his life had been despaired of. Eearly Tuesday night he showed some improvement, but it was considered at the time only a temporary matter, such as frequently occurs in pneumonia cases. The news of the fatal ending of the disease coming some hours later occasioned little surprise. The news spread rapidly and occasioned wide spread regret.
The end came very suddenly, after some hours of sleep, death being immediately due to a hemorrhage from the lungs which carried him off quickly. That he had lived so long was attributed to his wonderful vitality, assisted y the unceasing medical attention he received, those ministering to him being among his warmest friends.
The news of Mr. Thomas' death was a source of particular distress to the officers and men of the road, with many of whom he had worked in the ranks. By all of them he was beloved to an unusual degree. A flood of telegrams received from all over the country told of the esteem in which Mr. Thomas was held away from home.
President Thomas was an abiding friend to the colored employees of his road and they all loved him and knew they could always approach him when they needed his counsel. He was deeply interested in the colored employee's Railway Protective Association and never allowed an opportunity to pass when he could do something to strengthen that organization.

"I'D BEEN WORKING HARD ALL DAY, ROSS."
A typical setting for a southern Christmas picture, that would appeal to hearts everywhere, is a snap shot of a Negro father with his three pickaminies gazing at the Christmas show window of Phillips & Butterff's so brilliantly, electrically illumined, showing in marked contrast on the back ground of the darkened store after closing time.
A true lover of Art and Nature stops and amazedly studies the flashing eyes and interested smile on the faces of the little coons.
The proud Father, thankful for even this little attention to his offspring, speaks uninvited:
"I HAVE BEEN HARD AT WORK ALL DAY, BOSS, but there was nothing to it, these kids had to make me bring them to see the Phillips & Butterff's show windows."
This is just one reason why Santa Claus and "Phillips & Butterff's" are synonymous.
Have you submitted your picture of a typical Christmas?
$50.00 collected for it would just about make this the happiest Christmas you have ever passed through. Suppose you try. Phillips & Buttorff Mfg. Co.

‘Nation Wide Prohibition.
‘The subject of prohibition is one
that has been taxing the ablest minds
of this country for many years
Many methods have been tried in
effort to rid certain communities of
the quor traffic, but the one great
obstacle has always stood in the
way, namely: That the nation recog:
nize liquor as a commodity of trade,
and as such it becomes a legal bust-
ness. But the latest movement to
write into the constitution a law
prohibiting the manufacture of liquor
is @ sane and practical move.
‘The nation has as much right to
stop the manufacture of liquor as it
has to stop the sale of opium. That
liquor is an evil no one will ques-
tion, but so long as one state pro-
hibits the manufacture and sale and
the nation says that another state
shall manufacture and sell to resi-
dents in that state the law can never
be effective. The root of the evil
is in the manufacture thereof, and
it becomes more evident from day
to day, that the majority of the peo-
ple of this nation will join hands
with the Federal Government to
wipe out this great menace to man-
kind.
“I will be glad when Christmas is
over,” remarked a man in a livery
stable when a small boy banged
away with his paper cap pistol.
Strange some men forget that they
were once boys. |
Leaders in the national et
party are fighting hand to resurrect

of a white baby on a door step was

some things white folks do but this

From the alarming pages of the
very few of our esteemed contem-
poraries edited by colored men, par-
ticularly the Chicago Defender, and
the Hirmingham Wide Ayako, we
are astonished to learn thdt the will
drawn, made and left by the late R.
R. Church, of Memphis has been
broken, fet aside, changed by some
onder or decision of a Memphis
Court, ,
‘The Sun is a Memphis newspaper,
and its editor is a eltizen there. We
are alive tothe happenings of these
environs come by chance, by gos
sip's free and anxious tongue, 01
‘through channels of responsibility,
We are somewhat informed upon the
business and the findings of the sev
eral courts hereabouts, and certainly
we have followed with double inter
sst the legal skirmish with respect
to the affairs of the late R. R. Church
We weigh our word: the will left by

A friend in need is a friend indeed,”
Mrs. Ora Ferguson on Main street
is very ill. The funeral of Mr. W.
A. Johnson was held at Wesley
Chapel last Friday afternoon. ‘The
announcement of his death caused
thuch regret to his family and many
friends. Mr. Johnson was an active
member of the above named church
and a favorite among his friends.
The many peautiful designs and the
crowded auditorium manifested the
esteem in which he was held. He
is survived by his mother, three
brothers, a sister and many friends.
The Reading Club which meets at
the Masonic Temple is another step
forward in saving the: boys and

dies of the Wardrobe Club, especially
Mrs. C, A. Kelly who works so faith-
fully to’ help care for the poor and
homeless and at the same time tries
to help those in a more fortunate
situation to read the best literature.
One general prayer should go to

THE WILL OF R. R. CHURCH NOT BROKEN
From the alarming pages of the very few of our esteemed contemporaries edited by colored men, particularly the Chicago Defender, and the Birmingham Wide-Awake, we are astonished to learn that the will drawn, made and left by the late R. R. Church, of Memphis, has been broken, set aside, changed by some order or decision of a Memphis court.
The Sun is a Memphis newspaper, and its editor is a citizen here. We are alive to the happenings of these environs, come by chance, by gossip's free and anxious tongue, or through channels of responsibility. We are somewhat informed upon the business and the findings of the several courts hereabouts, and certainly we have followed with double interest the legal skirmish with respect to the affairs of the late R. R. Church.
We weigh our word: the will left by Mr. Church has not been broken by any act of the courts of Tennessee nor has that will been in question before any court in Tennessee or in any commonwealth. News to the contrary is false and misleading, and at ugly variance with the facts. If we are permitted to advance an opinion we will say that in all likelihood that document, now the tattler's toy and the gossip's morsel, will not suffer change by order finding or decisions of the courts of law of Tennessee, now nor ever.
The reputable journals edited by colored men that are evidently acquainted with both the law of Tennessee with respect to will-breaking and the sturdy powers of R. R. Church until the moment of his taking off, and that failed to discern an ocean of trouble in a stream of annoyance, have our respects and also congratulations upon their refusal to print as news what is exactly not the truth, and what is in open conflict with the truth!

Thos who partook of the hospitalities of Mrs. Reed and enjoyed the splendid festival were: Mr. and Mrs. Ward Mr. and Mrs. Lee Rankins, Mrs. Ma linda Smith, Mr. Jas, Collins, Mr. Jno, Rickman, Mr. R. R. Degraffried, Mrs. E. Edwards, Mr. Wm. Fowler, Mr. Milton Darden and Mrs. Perry. Many handsome and useful presents were received.

MADAME E. AZALIA HACKLEY AT
RYMAN AUDITORIUM.
For Benefit of the Boys' Dormitory Fu'd, Roger Williams University Large Crowd Greets Her.
The music loving public of Nashville was highly entertained with a most unique musical concert given at Ryman Auditorium, Monday evening, by Madman E. Azalia Hackley, for benefit of the boy's dormitory-fund, Roger University.
Madman Hackley was assisted by Fisk Jubilee Chorus and talent from Pearl High School, Meharry Medical College, State Normal and Roger Williams University. The program was an excellent one and the selections from Madman Hackley, with her demonstrations and voice culture were beyond compare.
Mme. Hackley believes that voice culture if properly taught will benefit every child spiritually, morally, and physically. And as there are so few vocal teachers fitted along the lines for the ten millions of Negroes she believes that it is an open pioneer field, and that a regular course of vocal study should be given in all
schools to fit young men and women
to enter this avenue of employment.
schools to fit young men and women to enter this avenue of employment. In one year and one month she taught nearly sixty-four thousand in her own unique way providing to the satisfaction of every one that the principles of voice culture can be taught and absorbed by all children just as any other school study is taught and absorbed. This is the principle aim of her present tour and her books relating to these vital subjects will be soon placed before the public.

The Executive Secretary of the Colored Branch of the Y. M. C. A. was instructed, last week by the Committee of Management, which held a meeting last Monday night at the residence of Dr. C. V. Roman, on fourteenth Avenue, North, to send for the International Secretary, Mr. Moreland, to lead or inaugurate the campaign for a $100,000 Y. M. C. A. building for Negroes in Nashville For more than two hours this Committee looked into the matters pertaining to the local Y. M. C. A. A. Sanders-the local Secretary made his quarterly report of receipts and bursements, after which plans for the campaign were discussed in detail Dr. Roman, Chairman, protem, and the other twelve members of the committee tee who were all present, save two gave their opinions of Nashville's op portunity to secure through Nashville, what Nashville really needs.
It could not be learned after the meeting just what the final arrangements were, as none of the members of the committee would discuss the final outcome. They averted however, that the fight is on, the battle is pitched and the lineup of the forces would become more visible and the fight more apparent when the International Secretary came. He is expected within the next five or six days. The citizens of Nashville are expected to take hold of this situation

Tentative promises of help when the campaign has been launched have come to the Association from St. Louis, Atlanta, Louisville and Indianapolis. These cities have stated that when the call is made they will answer the Maccadonian cry to come over and held us. The time of the campaign has not been definitely settled, however it is expected that the same will begin in January and the citizens will be given an opportunity to show their interest in the homeless boy and the lonely man.

WOMEN FOR NATION-WIDE PROBLEM.
Mrs. Eliza E. Peterson in an open letter says: The National Woman's Christian Temperance Union has launched a campaign for National Prohibition in 1920.
We believe in ourselves; but infinitely more in the God who said: "Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours but Cad's.
We realize that it would be disastrous to the race, if in the final triumph of virtue over vice, the church over the liquor traffic; our women were found poorly represented in the great organization of the National Woman's Christian Temperance Union, which knows no woman by her creed or color.
To forestall such a calamity, we are calling for volunteers all over the Nation.
January, 1, 1914, has been set apart as our fast day, on which day all who are interested in the wellbeing of the race are called upon to unite with us that there might be a
great awakening of our women to this the opportune time to fall into line and help save our race from this vile form of slavery which the white man's civilization has forced upon us.
At our National Convention in Asbury Park, N. J., in November, Ohio's colored women led the nation in making a great gain of membership; New York came next. The whole nation must rally. The liquor traffic knows no race, section, nor condition in its work of evil. We must Be On Duty when the last blow for liberty of home, race and nation is struck.
Texas will rally for 1,000 paid members. Tennessee and Arkansas 500 each.
Mrs. George E. Haynes, Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., has been chosen as our Secretary of Advisory Committees of College Work.
Miss Mary A. Lynch, Livingston College, Salisbury, N. C., is Chairman of Committee on Press Work.
I cheerfully introduce these capable earnest women who will help lead our ranks to victory over the greatest enemy we have known since emancipation.
We believe that our men will rally to help us as they discover the earnestness of our hearts set to action.
We therefore humbly ask that you will give space in your valuable columns of the next issue for this letter.
We further beg that you will let appear in a later issue if not along with this letter, the enclosed copy of excerpts from Dr. Booker T. Washington; Prof. Kelley Miller, Howard University, Washington, D. C.; Dr. C. V. Roman, Meharry Medical College, Nashville Tenn., Dr. Sutton E. Griggs, Memphis, Tenn.; Bishop C. R. Harris, Salisbury, N. C.; Dr. R. E. Jones, New Orleans; Dr. J. H. N. Waring, Washington, D. C.
This letter goes to not less than 200 newspapers and we call upon all to help by praying with us on January 1 for this special blessing that 1914 may be a year of jubilee for the womanhood of the race in achievement for "God and Home and Native Land."
PROVIDENCE NOTES.
The people of Providence were very much elated over the cool spell that came on recently. Quite a number have killed their hogs. Mr. Moses Goens and Mr. Bald Hyde were attacked by the swine while in the hogkilling, each of them being very badly bitten. Tuesday night, December 9th Prof. Hynes, Tennessee's moving picture artist and lecturer was here. The people of Providence and vicinity are setting things in shape for the Xmas hollidays. Many of the little folks are anxiously looking for Orl. Santa Claus. Mr. Edmon Goens spent Sunday in the city with his wife,
Mrs. Creena Edmondson was the guest of Mrs. Ellen Peck, Sunday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Davis have moved in the house of Mrs. Ada Patterson. They admire their new home very much. Mrs. Peggle Elmore had a fall some time ago the result of which is causing much pain. Rev. John Slaughter preached here last Sunday. Revs. Slaughter and Harris were entertained by Mr. Tom Patterson. Mr. and Mrs. Dickson will leave for Oklahoma in the early part of the year.
