Chattanooga, Tenn., Aug. 15; Bristling with enthusiasm and bubbling over with many plans for the betterment of the Negro in the business world, the Eighteenth Annual Session of the National Negro Business League was called to order in this city by the Hon. J. C. Napier of Nashville, Tenn., President of the League.
Representatives from practically every state in the Union were present when the gavel fell, and during the entire history of the League it was pronounced by those who have been attending the sessions all these years, that there has been no gathering that has created more interest and where the citizens as a whole were co-operating to a larger extent than they were in the present sessions.
From now until Saturday this city will be a bee bive of activity. Many attractions and entertainments for the visitors have been planned by the Local Committee headed by Hon. Mr. G. W. Franklin, the Chairman, who is also President of the National Undertakers' Association, and Mr. J. M. Easterling the Secretary. Since this is the second session of the national organization ever held in the state of Tennessee, the first having been held in Nashville a number of years ago, the citizens of the Volunteer State have become almost a unit in their preparation to have it go down in history as a record breaker. To add impetus to the occasion and to make it one that will go down in history, President Napier, Secretary Scott, Chairman Elliott of the Executive Committee, and the en- committee with the membership, have left no stone unturned.
The official Souvenir Program that is being distributed, was the first sign of a record breaking meeting. It was pronounced by all as one of the achievements of modern days, containing as it does a historical sketch of the organization. The side attractions include the annual banquet, a visit to Chickamauga Park, one of the sessions of the League to be held on Lookout Mountain an da boat ride up the Tennessee River.
The home of Dr. and Mrs. Geo L. Fletcher of 4001 Vudeana Ave., N. Nashville, was made happy Sunday, Aug 5th, 1917, when the stork flew by leaving a bright eyed boy.

PRES. OF HAMPTON PASSES TO BEYOND
Hollis Burke Frizell—Dr. Mortons' Tribute—Life of Victory and service.
By Wm. Anthony Aery.
Hollis Burke Frissell, beloved principal of Hampton Institute for nearly twenty-five years, and Samuel Chapman Armstrong, his soldierly predecessor, now rest side by side, as once they loyally worked by day and by night, to give all men, regardless of class or race, a new conception of education—"education for life."
The funeral services, simple and impressive, which was held on Wednesday in the Hampton Institute Memorial Church and in the small school cemetery, in memory of the life and work of Dr. Frissell, brought together on the Lower Peninsula of Virginia hundreds upon hundreds of thoughtful white and colored people, who paid tribute to one of America's leading statesman-educators.
DR. MOTON'S TRIBUTE
Dr. Robert R. Moton, Hampton's former commandant and present principal of Tuskegee Institute, delivered a forceful address on Dr. Frissell's service to the nation. Dr. Moton said: "This life which has gone out from us so recently is today manifesting itself in the acts and thoughts of thousands of other lives—lives of black men, and red men, and men of the

DR. EDWARD P. JONES IN GEORGIA
Gifted Orator at Friendship Church—Masterly address Delivered—Church crowded.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 12th:—This city extended a warm welcome to Rev. E. P. Jones, D. D., President of the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, who delivered an address at the Friendship Baptist Church this afternoon. It was a great outpouring of enthusiastic citizens that made up the mass meeting which convened at 3:00 o'clock. Atlanta had long been standing marking time waiting an opportunity to hear the president of the largest body of organized, religious, Protestant workers in the world. President Jones received a great ovation when he was introduced to the magnificent audience that filled the Friendship Church. The local ministers of the city, irrespective of denomination assisted in making the occasion a great success. Telegrams were read from present people with best wishes for a success. A telegram from Dr. R. H. Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., stated that on account of illness he could not be present.
From the time President Jones was introduced and began speaking until the close of his masterly address, he had the citizens and the audience in his hands. He dealt with facts and figures showing the great growth of the denomination and the constructive work that they have been able to do since he had been elected as the head of the Baptist family in 1915 at the Chicago session. He predicted that a mighty army of Baptists would come down to the city in September and that they would be progressive Baptists. He said that not less than $15,000.00 would be raised at the coming

HAMPTON'S TRI- ENNIAL REUNION
14 Reunion of Alumni—Each Graduating Class Represented. Hampton' Ideals.
The death of Dr. Hollis B. Frissell gives added significance to the recent Fourteenth Triennial Reunion of the Graduates of Hampton Institute.
Fred D. Wheelock, Hampton '88, offers the following statement concerning the successful reunion:
Some abbot was held as to whether it would be wise to hold a reunion this year on account of the unsettled condition of affairs. In view, however, of the coming celebration next year of the Fiftieth Anniversary of Hampton, the executive committee decided it would be most fitting to hold the reunion, which was called together by William M. Reid, '78.
"Every class from 1871 to 1917 was represented. A more earnest and thoughtful gathering of men and women it would be hard to find. After a thorough review of to work of the Reunion Association by the president, and an outline of what remained to be done, the following committees were appointed: Resolutions, Nominations and Memorials.
"Dr. John T. Lattimore, a dentist of Hampton, Va., made a stirring address on Hampton's ideals." It was a gem, indeed, expressing in choice and heartfelt language the loyalty of the sons and daughters to their alma mater, and giving also a brief resume as a teacher of the ideals which governed the men and women who have gone out from the school. That intangible something, known as the "Hampton Spirit," was beautifully referred to and called forth a hearty response. At the close of Dr. Lattimore's address dis

Boston Woman Recommending It To Her Friends
Popular Beaton Lady says Ton line Has Prevened a Dissend a Her
It is always interesting to listen to the statements of our friends, and especially when you know they are sincere and honest in what they say. Added interest is created in a statement coming from one who has spent a lifetime in Boston, where she is well known socially.
Such a person is Annie Stewart, who is an Boston and is possessed of the responder and evidence of her associates, and is willing for anyone to call on her to verify the following signed testimonial:
"I have suffered with stomach trouble for the past seven years. It took the form of indigestion and dyspepsia. I had dizzy spells and headaches after I ate a little food it formed fermentation and cause gas to form in my stomach. I was over my body, and was chronically pated. My liver was torpid, and I felt generally miserable. I had doctored and had been in the hospital, but received no permanent relief. I was so nervous and restless that night I could scarcely sleep. The gas pressing under my heart caused pallor and when I arose in the morning I was just asleep. I retired. About two weeks ago I gan to take tonilone, and I can truthfully state that it has done wonders in my case. I am feeling like a new woman and can eat any kind of food. I sleep the night through and have no more aches or pains; in fact, it has cured me, and I am recommending it to friends, as it has been a Godsend to me."
All druggists sell and guarantee tonilone.
There are numerous symptoms of this trouble that tononline can relieve. In fact, any of the following may de-venture of the stomach: In digestion, dyspepsia; in bad breath, skid throbbing headache, poor circulation, night sweats, that tired feeling, costiness, coated tongue or a poor complexion. Caution: - As tononline is recom-mended as a flesh builder not those with stomach disease whose weight 15 pounds or more should not take it continuously. - Adv.

NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY AUGUST 17, 1917.
MAKES CANDID STATEMENT
Record As Business Man and Citizen Forcibly Presented For the Public Consideration
ANNOUNCES HIS PLAT FORM
To the People of Nashville:
I am a candidate subject to your suffrage, for the office of Commissioner of Waterworks, Streetcleaning and Workhouse, and believing that the voters are entitled to a frank and principle statement of views and principles from their candidate, I declare and pledge myself to the following principles:
1. While I recognize that party politics will not be a test of eligibility and fitness in a municipal contest, and as this, I will state that, if elected, the democratic principle of equal rights to all and special privileges to none, shall be the governing rule of public conduct, and in support of this principle, the record of my life, both as a party man and as exemplified in my personal and business career.
2. Eight years ago I was a candidate before the people for the Board of Public Works (the title under which our city's governing body was then legally designated) and although defeated on the face of the returns by a few votes, the conduct of the election, and especially the counting of the ballots in several of the wards, was such as almost to conclusively indicate the presence of gross frauds and irregularities, without which my election would have been conclusively assured by a decisive majority. Against the protests of friends and supporters, and indeed of many who had opposed me in my ambition and who had cast their ballots, I was forced to cooperate with moorant to contest the election, and thus embroil the city and people in a disturbing and expensive contest. I elected to prefer vindication at the hands of the people at some future date, and that vindication I now seek and confidently expect from your ballots at the ensuing election.
3. My party record, as well as my record as a citizen and business man, is open to you, and I invite its inspection. I was originally a mechanic and for four years worked at the bench, but for the past twenty years I worked as a business in Nashville. I have been engaged and interested in industries which have given employment to labor, and helped upbuild and develop our city. I was for eight consecutive terms president of the Retail Grocers' Association, and am now a director in that and other business ventures. My favorite flavor is the upbuilding of Nashville and the prosperity of its citizenship.
4. From my early boyhood I have been the consistent friend of labor, and have never had a connection or exercised an influence over any business in which labor was not recognized and its rights and interest protected. During the American Railway Union strike, commonly known as the Debt's strike, I furnished money and provisions to the men out of employment and materially assisted in the adjustment of the trouble and the reinstatement of the men beheld as the debt's debt. Likewise later in the local cotton mill strike in conjunction with "The Loue Miller," the late Maj. John J. McCann.
5. I initiated the fight now pending in our courts and in the forum of public opinion against what is commonly known as "The Ice Trust." Having called to my notice the policy of this monopoly in the matter of short weights and excessive charges and its probable further encroachments on the rights of the helpless consuming public I called the matter to the attention of the Retail Grocers Association, and vivorously pressed the fight, with the result that, there is now growing awareness of the effects of industrial influences charging violations of the Anti-Trust laws and a bill in our Chancery Court looking to the annulment of the charter of the offending corporation.
6. If elected, I shall do all and everything in my power to conserve the interest of the taxpayer of the city, and while an advocate of the progressive improvement, and the proper and necessary maintenance of our city's streets, schools, parks and other utilities, yet I advocate retrenchment and reform in the financial management of our city. Extravagance should be throttled, expenditures wise and conservatively retrenched, useless offices abolished, the rate of taxation diminished, our bonded indebtedness decreased, thus re-establishing the financial prestige of Nashville as a city of citizenship to our midst instead of driving from us to other communities our own people, as admittedly the policy now pursued is doing.
Pledged to these principles, and to the enforcement of all laws and prompt, efficient and courteous administration of the duties of the office. I announce myself a candidate for the Commissionership of Waterworks, Streetcleaning and Workhouse, subject to the Democratic primary, and respectfully ask your vote and influence.
MISS DUNSON VISITS IN GAL-
LATIN.
Miss Mary A. Dunson, the efficient cashier of the National Baptist Publishing Board and her neice, Miss Annie M. Dunson, were the guests of relatives and friends in Gallatin.

Under the leadership of Dr. T. S. Burwell, the local physicians have already completed plans for the Convention which makes it seem absorbed. The Association will have one of the best sessions in its history.

Mrs. R. E. and Mr. Henry Hunt, Jr. were delegates from the First Baptist Church and Sunday School last week to Murfreesboro attending the Stones River Sunday School Convention and Association. They report a great session. Many delegates were in attendance and were well cared for by the good pastor, Dr. Kennon and the Murfreesboro members of the First Baptist Church. Quite a nice outing on last Sunday evening when brother R. E. Hunt carried a nice delegation from here to hold services at Mallory Station. Brother Hunt preached from the 3rd chapter of St. John, text, "And ye received not our witnesses," subject, to our witnesses. We had a good meeting and we were asked to return again. Brother Lewis Buchanan preached at our home church Sun night. Rev. T. W. Watkins preached for Rev. T. M Prim Sunday at a basket dinner meeting. Mrs. Oscar owens was elected District Missionary of the Women's Auxiliary of the Stones Association last week in session. The Primitive Baptist had a footwashing here last Sunday. Elder Boyd, the pastor preached the foot washing sermon.
A LARGE AUDIENCE OF SEVERAL HUNDRED HEAR REV. G. W. WOODBEY'S SERMON LAST SUNDAY AT THE BIJOU THEATRE.
The meetings of the Rev. G. W. Woodbey of San Diego, California, will at the request of the large and enthusiastic audience which attended last Sunday, be continued for the present at the BJOU next Sunday, August 19 at three o'clock. The theme of next Sunday's sermon will be "Should the preachers Apply the Teachings of Christ and the Bible to the Present War?" The sermon preached last Sunday was followed with marked attention from start to finish. As he went on to show that we professed Christians are not following the teaching of Christ upon the three great cardinal principles of rent, interest and profit.
REV. G. W. WOODBEY
which are only three names for the same thing. That these three things lie at the bottom largely of all the poverty, vice and crime of the past and present. That interest on money land monopoly and the perpetration of debt was forbidden under the law of God given through Moses. He showed that Christ said loan hoping to receive nothing again." That to put the golden rule in practice would overthrow the present industrial system. That we Christians cannot sanction the present economic system and follow Christ. But why spoil the address by attempting to give a poor synopsis. Only those can appreciate the wonderful sermon who were fortunate enough to hear it.
There were more than a hundred white people out to hear the preacher, and three times as many colored. While the preacher's manner of delivery is conversational, he has the power to rise to grand climaxes of inspiring thought, which give him the sympathy of his audience. To fully appreciate him he must be heard.

Says a Glass of Hot Water Every Morning Before Breakfast Will Take Off Fat If You Get More Fresh Air
Be Moderate in Your Diet and Reduce Your Weight With Tassco
Tassco
Lack of fresh air唤醒 the oxygen-carrying power of the blood, the liver becomes sluggish, fat accumulates and the action of many of the vital organs is hindered thereby. The heart action becomes weak, work is an effort and the beauty of the figure is destroyed.
Fat put on by indoor life is unhealthy and if nature is not assisted in throwing it off by increasing the oxygen-carrying power of the blood, a serious case of obesity may result. When you feel that you are getting too stout, take the matter in hand at once. Don't wait until your figure has become a joke and your health ruined through carrying around a burden of unsightly and unhealthy fat. Spend as much time as you possibly can in the open air; breathe deeply and get from the driggist a box of tassco, take a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast then take tassco after each meal and at bedtime.
Weigh yourself every few days and keep up the treatment until you are down to normal. Tassco is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take, helps the digestion and is designed to increase the oxygen-carrying power of the blood.
Even a few days' treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight. There is nothing better for obesity.—Adv.

Col. "Phil" Waters, the leading exponent of race progress in the capital city of West Virginia, is "doing his bit" to make war a more pleasing pastime than Gen. Sherman characterized it some years ago in a famous epigram. A dean of the baseball fraternity in his native land himself, Col. Waters is devoting his time and energy, towards raising a fund to help in the campaign for baseball outfits for the boys who have played in the league, to defense of our common country. The Charleston (W. Va.) Gazette, a perennial friend of men who do things, regardless of race or color, tells the story thusly in a recent issue: "Colored baseball fans of Charleston rallied around their committeeman, Col. Waters, the livest fan of his race in West Virginia, yesterday, regardless of race or color, towards the soldiers and sailors ball fund. When Phil had completed his rounds for the day, many of the local devotees of the national sport had contributed and others will cash in before the week is over. Four hundred or more quarters have already been given and before Col. Waters finishes his persuasive labor among the fans and fanettes of Charleston his list of subscribers will look like a special edition of the city directive every year, his shadow never grow less," is always ready to help to make humanity happier. In gathering this fund for a soldier and sailors' baseball outfit, he is giving cheer where a silver lining is most needed to dispel the clouds of grim visaged war.
The law of natural selection will solve the race problem. People will associate with whom they like and let those alone with whom they have nothing in common—yet without friction or a semblance of trouble. Legislation as to social intercourse is vicious, officious and unnecessary.

The Negro must emulate the brave members of the race at Chester, Pa. These many fellows stood their ground and fought the mobs to a standstill. Don't run away from a conflict. When the running habit is stained there, the mobs where will end. Mobs do not linger when their prey refuses to do the rabbit stunt and vigorously sets up to give the surgeon and the undertaker a number of first-class jobs. The Negro has a right to live and to work on any spot he selects under the American flag.
North or South, the colored American soldier will make good. The Stars and Stripes should and will protect him, whether he camps in Iowa or Alabama. He will hold up the honor of his country whether he guards public property on our own soil or is called to the foreign field in France. He knows but one word—"Duty." * * *

Nick Chiles, the observant editor of the Topeka Plaindealer, speaking of his recent tour of Missouri and noting the treatment meted out to the colored workers in places visited by him, says: "In the smaller towns of Missouri, to our surprise, we found white people paying only $2.50 per week to women for general housework—washing, ironing, cooking and cleaning house. Men receive from $1.25 to $1.50 per day, and that only since the exodus began. It seems as though an understanding exists to hold the colored people as close to slavery as possible by paying them starvation wages, not allowing them to live in the clean and healthy portion of the city. They do not encourage thrift, honesty, nor industry among them, nor do they they want them to have a first-class education. The more submissive a colored man is the better he gets along. They segregate the Negroes and do not want them to live in good houses." This is a deplorable situation and. Editor Chiles urges the colored people, as an economic proposition, to leave the South and seek better conditions in manufacturing centers and progressive agricultural sections of the North.

The leaders of the National Negro Business League will be at the Chattanooga meeting, not only to assure the perpetuation of the race's most useful body organization, but to indicate their loyalty to the administration of President J. C. Napier, who has been from the foundation of the League at Boston in 1900, the right hand man of the late Booker T. Washington, and who was rightly chosen as the successor of the commercial and educational "wizard" of his day and generation.

The good city of St. Louis is perfectly right in desiring to have the name of East St. Louis so changed that people will know that the new "outpost of Hell" is not an organic part of herself. East St. Louis is in Illinois, across the Mississippi river from St. Louis, Mo. The Postoffice Department or whoever has the authority about the city has the St. Louis. To avoid the confusion that has been going on for a number of years.
Neither wars nor rumors of wars should militate against the attendance at our many schools this year. The young man who would ably defend his country must have a strong foundation in the mental discipline that comes from a liberal education.
With all of its imperfections, this is the best government under the sun. We shall stick to it and help it to remedy its defects, while extolling its virtues. The Negro is a 100 per cent. American.

The race is proud of such capable women as Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mme. C. J. Walker, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, Mrs. Annie Turbo-Pope-Malone, Mme. E. Azalia Hackley, Miss Marie C. D. Madre and Mrs. Mary Church Tervell. They possess courage and capacity and never falter when the time comes to show their colors.
The marvelous business instinct possessed by the women of our race will be shown to advantage at the convention of Mme. C. J. Walker's agents, which will be held in Philadelphia August 30 and 31.
With the Business League and its auxiliaries at Chattanooga, the Elks at Cleveland, the Pythians at St. Cleveland, the Medical men and harrowing women at Philadelphia and the St. Lukes at Richmond, August will be one busy month for the folks who are doing things for humanity.
ECHOES OF DIXIE FILL CHURCH
AS SOUTHERN SOCIALLOGICAL
CONGRESS IS BROUGHT TO AN
END AT ASHVILLE.
(Asheville Citizen.)
With the echoes of "Dixie" sung by Commissioner James G. Stieke leather and enoir still echoing through Central Methodist Church, the Asheville-Blue Ridge associations sessions of the Southern Sociological congress closed last evening with a mass the department on "Iace Relations."
Largely Attended.
The session was largely attended, a feature being the presence of so many colored people that they filled the gallery and overflowed to the main floor, and the addresses were of a high order. The speakers were Dr. W. L. Poteat, president of Wake Forest College; W. D. Wearford, traveling secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and Dr. G. V. Roman, a publicist who served the national Negro medical journal.
The presiding officer was Dr. James H. Dillard, of Charlottville, Va., president of the Jeanes board and director of the Slater foundation, the great educational funds. Dr. Dillard is regarded as one of the most eminent authorities on race questions in this country.
The meeting was called to order by Judge J. C. Pritchard, the presiding officer, and began with the singing of the national song followed by doctor Dr. Charles T. Alexander, of Arcadia, Florida.
Dr. James H. Dillard, of Charlottsville, Va., was presented as chairman Dr. Finley offered a resolution adding as a ninth topic for discussion, "Relief and Social Work," and after Dr. W. S. Brown spoke for the proposition it was adopted. Dr. Finley then offered a resolution of thanks for courtesies from the people of Asheville, the press the ministers and Central Methodist Church. Dr. McCullock spoke in appreciation of the tender of the church to the congress.
Dr. McCulloch expressed the hope and expectation that a branch of the congress be organized in Asheville.
Dr. Dillard Introduced.
Dr. W. D. Weatherford, introduced by Dr. Dillard, said progress was making in education of the Negro and told of improvements in Alabama. No less progress is being made economically, he said, and pointed out that it will be money made in the south to aid the farmers. And it is being substantially made morally and religiously, the speaker instancing that in recent trips he found the colored schoolhouses in good order and their churches attractive inside and out.
"We must make up our minds once for all to rid ourselves of race prejudice—all hatred of those who live by our side—forgetting that there is such a thing as a color line in justice. The speaker said he of course did not mentionation of race differences—no white man wishes this—but he spoke in relation to justice and humanity.
The speaker said that if the southern people are to show that they are advanced in civilization they must give a square deal to the man
Dr. C. V. Roman.
Dr. C. V. Roman, speaking on "Equal Treatment in Housing, Sanitation and Public Improvements," said in beginning that his subject had been selected for him.
The speaker said that the chief problem of social and economic reform is to get men to think. "Thinking is man's only salvation and reason is the hope that men will be hardened, with innate deprivacy is man's besetting individual sin. inertia rather than opposition is the fee of reform. When the multitudes think calmly, intelligently and persistently, knowledge, hand in hand with truth, will walk the earth, and the dream of democracy will be fulfilled."
Applying these views the speaker said that the Declaration of Independence not only maintained that all men are born with the capacity of happiness, but also all governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. Therefore democracy is fair play or it is nothing. Neither

race or color is a basic factor. We preach much and practice little until forced by the chilling results of camality. It is the color of a man's ideals and not the color of his skin that determines his value to democracy. The kink of his thought and not his hair fixes his evolutionary status. "The world seems to be in no temper to try the only line of conduct that offers a solution to the golden rule. The present war is the direct result of over cultivation and national selfishness. I only ask that the state and municipal, apply to native born, loyal Americans, regardless of creed or color, those principles of liberty and justice for which we have risked the hazard of war in a distant land." And he maintained that this justice was not given when a state sives fifty-four per cent of its population ninety-seven per cent of the national appropriation for agricultural purposes.
The speaker urged better sanitary provision for colored sections, and that there be legal regulation and supervision of houses built for rental. The address was heard with marked interest and liberally amplified. The relation between Christianity and humanitarian movements was discussed by Dr. W. T. Poteat, pressident of Wake Forest College, whose inclusive thought and epigrammatic expression clearly carried his message that as the social uplift movement came from Christianity to the church must as its essential duty deter hateful ideology and likewise the success of these rests on the foundation of religion. Dr. Poteat dismissed as hardly worthy of extend; comment those who urged that the "pure gospel" be preached and that the church have no concern with the material problems of life. This "Pure Gospel" recognizes no relation between theology and soct-

who is active in the raising of funds for

ology, said Mr. Potate, but, is an "easy religion" since "it cracks no whip of conscience over its believers, and sees no relation between the church and moral conduct." "The social movement came from Christianity," said the speaker, "and the church must uphold it if it is to fulfill its mission of establishing the Kingdom on earth, and the social movement must be successful in equality if it is to succeed. In fact, Dr. Potate maintained many of the so-called economic problems are really religious problems. The question of the relations between capital and labor is not economic, but it is religious, as so is that of child labor. Christ's command was to love thy neighbor; was it the Master's intent that you love that neighbor yet misery and to save him from misery saying this is an "economic" question?
As a further illustration in this connection Dr. Potate said that the high turf burden placed on the masses for the benefit of a few was "not only an economic stupidity but a moral iniquity," casually remarking that he had in the past been accused of positive opinions on the tariff question.
Accuracy of statistics tending to show an alarming increase in Negro crime in the south were questioned by speakers at the afternoon session of the Southern Sociological Congress held in the Central Methodist Church, and the underlying causes of the so-called exodus of coloured men to the north were fruitful of discussion. Some counties in the south
have been almost depopulated from this cause, it was said, and those sections where lynch law has been most in evidence have been the heaviest sufferers from loss of Negro labor. One of the speakers stated that the loss to the south from Negroes in the south was severe and been the treatment in the north" already totalled a quarter billion dollars. By others it was said the present heavy immigration of the colored race to other parts of the country was only slightly in excess of the normal movement. There were repeated references made to the "unrest" of the Negroes in the south, and that many middled, aged Negroes of property were among those seeking new homes.
Church Well Filled.
The church was well filled for the afternoon session, the audience being about equally divided between members of the two races. Dr. James O'Brien, of Charlottesville, Va., presided. The addresses were short and the following discussions interesting Addresses were made by Prof. Stuart G. Noble, of Millsaps College, Jackson, Miss; Bishop T. W. Unfrot, colored, of South Carolina; Judges G. Newell of Caldic, Judges G. McKenzie, of Stevona, of Winston-Salem; Dr. H. H. Proctor, colored, of Atlan ta; Prof. W. F. Tillet, of Vanderbilt University; George E. Haynes, colored, of Fisk University; Dr. F. A. McKenzie, president of Fisk University, and by others.
Judge Stevens, speaking from a careful investigation of conditions in Winston-Salem and at other points, denied that the Negroes were not afforded justice in the courts, and his investigations demonstrated that as a rule the court sentences imposed on members of the colored race were not affirmed. He fended for fenders. He thought the significance of the Negro exodus to the north was the number of property owners included found that many Negro criminals were leaving this part of the country and feared that the race

riots of St. Louis and Chester would be repeated elsewhere. High wages and a chance to see the world were reasons impeding the Negroes to leave their homes here, he began and he was confident a large promenon of soiling leave would be. He said that the south most ofude-take to bee the men here by legislative enactment, but that the labor agents should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. He found no occasion for alarm in the situation.
Negroes Sensitive
Dr. Proctor, colored, of Atlanta, said that the Negroes were as sensitive as so many children and that away down deep in their hearts they had an abiding sense of ill treatment at the hands of the white race. He said they wanted to vote and to be voted for, and that they were using the black men to cross the seas to make the world safe for democracy, that the black men wished to live safely in a democratic country. He believed the movement of the Negroes to the north had already cost the south a quarter billion dollars, but that it might result in the ultimate good of the south. He believed that if the colored men were given more freedom would stop. Where the worst economic conditions in the south prevail, there was the movement and the unrest of the Negroes most marked.
Prof. Noble, of Jackson, Miss., spoke on the "Influence of Education on Negro Life," and he discovered that the educational facilities afforded the race here were hardly worthy of the name. He believed that education of the right, kind would be beneficial and thought that Negroes were learning to respect property rights more now than ever before. He noted a remarkable increase in crime among the Negroes in the south and that young members of the race were coming to manhood ignorant of the law and the environment living. The mass of the Negro race in the south were stagnant from an economic viewpoint and the present conditions were a menace to the social organization of this section of American, he said.
Question Accuracy
Speakers following questioned the accuracy of the statistics from which Prof. Noble drew his deductions and some of them asserted the race had done remarkably well since the time they were emancipated. No peasant class of Europe ever made the progress in so brief a time as have the Negroes, it was said, and it was the concensus of opinion that the Negroes were better off in the mission. Con-odistics of men cursus-south
south than in any other part of the United States.
Bishop Clinton asserted there was a lack of understanding between the races, both north and south, and declared there was a new Negro as there was a new south and the old methods of treating the Negro will no longer apply. The social equality was not been overworked and was not an issue, he declared. A faithful application of the religion of Christ would solve the question and white church members knew more about the needs.

SUMMER'S COMING AND GOING.
‘The day between cold and hot
‘when first we were reminded of sum-
mer’s coming has been amply cele
brated and sung as one of the great
Gays of the year. We are to be re
leased from a winter's imprisonment
‘Then think we of deep shadows on
the grass, of meadows where in sun
the cattle graze and go forth. ‘The
thought is most delightful, so delight:
ful that the poet here bursts most
unpreventably into song.
Not so much has been said of that
equally wonderful day when comes
the first reminder of summer's going.
Summer is fine, and we like it, but
enough is enough. A few blistering
days in late July, when it is too hot
even to go swimming, complete the
exhaustion of summer's welcome. The
dream of outdoors now shifts, for sum-
mer is driving us indoors from the
heat, even as January drove us indoors
from the cold. We wish for a season
that will fil us with zest for the out:
ofdoors again.
‘Then, sometime in August it rains,
A cool wind from the north or east
follows the rain. ‘The nicht calls for
Dlankets and we sleep an hour later
than usual We adda little warm
water to the morning bath, Outside
the Ulack birds and the blue birds
are beginning to fly in flocks. At
Tunch we exchange ice tea for hot cof:
fee, At evening we wonder whether
it would be unpatriotic to have fried
bacon for supper. It dawns upon us
that summer is waning and autumn,
while not here, is just over the hill
And we melancholy, as the poets
paint us? Not by a thousand miles,
The promise of autumn and {ts sin
gery days has hastened our bloot,
stimulated our nerves and renewed
within us a life made flabby by too
many summer days. We are sorry
for people who live in a winterless
climate. Sorry twice, We are sorry
because they miss the sublime de:
ght of seeing summer come, And
sorry because they miss the divine
Joys of seeing summer go.

I have ever known, to hide himself absolutely behind the great cause for which he worked. He thought nothing about himself, but he thought always of how he could serve "The keynote of Dr. Frissell's life was the note of service to one's race one's country, one's God. It was not narrowed down to one or two races, but narrowed down to one race, and wherever there was a chance to serve "Dr. Frissell's memory will always be revered by the millions of Negroes whom he helped and by millions of white people, North and South, through whom he served, and by thousands of Indians for whom he worked.
LIFE OF VICTTORY.
"We should thank God for the great victory which is Dr. Frissell's and which is ours—the victory over prejudice, over selfishness, over littleness, the victory of patience, of simplicity, and of service.
"May those who are privileged to work for Hampton always be controll
awaits those who possess efficiency and perseverance. He is a successful practitioner of Brownsville, Tenn., where he has quite an extensive practice. He finished his medical course at the Meharry Medical College, class 1915, with a very creditable record. He then took a thorough course in surgeon practice at the Baptist Hospital, Memphis, Tenn.
He has received many expressions of congratulations since his appointment by the President of the United States, an honor worthily bestowed and highly regarded by the race which he represents.
ed, whether as trustees, teachers, students, graduates, or friends, by this spirit of unselfish service to our fellowmen."
Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, Specialist in the Education of Racial Groups in the U. S. Bureau of Education, Washington, D. C. formerly associate chaplein of Hampton Institute, read the prayer which Dr. Frissell himself offered less than two years ago at the funeral service of Dr. Booker T. Washington.
"Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory"—with these words Dr. Frissell himself opened the service held in memory of Hampton's most distinguished graduate. These words were repeated again and again as an expression of Dr. Frissell's victorious life.
FAVORITE HYMNS
The Hampton School sang with rare feeling two Negro religious folk songs, "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot" and "My Lord, What a morning."—which were dear to the heart of Hampton's principal. Rev. Laurence F芬inger read appropriate selections from the Scriptures and the Rev. Dr. Revbert B. Turmer offered the closing prayer at the church service.
FUNERAL PROCESSION
Scores of floral pieces covered the casket—mute witnesses of the affection of white and colored people. The flowers were carried from the church to the cemetery by Hampton graduates. The funeral procession was headed by the well-trained Hampton Institute band. Then followed the Hampton cadets; the girl students; the funeral car; the flower bearers; the officers of Battery D, Virginia Field Artillery; and hundreds of Dr. Frissell's friends from far and near. The services at the grave included the commitment of the body by the Rev. Herbert B. Turner; prayer by the Rev. Laurence Fenninger; and the singing of "My Faith Looks Up to Thee." "Taps" was sounded by Hampton's bandmaster, and again the battalion moved to the quickened step of martial music.
A NATION'S TRIBUTE
Among the telegraphic messages which have come to Mrs. Hollis B. Frissell and her son, Sydney Dodd Frissell, from all classes of people and the nation, showing Dr. Frissell's loss to the nation, may be mentioned the following:
GLAD TO RECOMMEND IMPGO LINIMENT
Had Suffered for Five Years
Found No Relief Until I Used
Impgo Liniment
Mrs. Mollie Johnston, 1701 Hamilton Street, Nashville, Tenn., says she has suffered for five years with rheumatism in ankles. At times was hardly able to walk. Had tried numerous remedies, but found no relief until a friend advised me to try impgo Liniment. After one treatment with Impgo I was entirely relieved and feel like a child. I am glad to testify to the wonderful merits of impgo Liniment, and recommend it to all sufferers from aches and pains. All druggists, 25c and 50c. Free demonstration at $20 Union Street. Any ache or pain relieved in a few minutes free. (Adv.)
Mrs. Mary Robinson of Grand Chain, Ill., who has been visiting her father, Rev. H. Price, was in the city again this week. She was on her way back from Lawrenceburg, Tenn., where she has been visiting several of her friends. Mrs. Ransom is the officer of late Mrs. Joose McNairy, and to wail and favorably known in Nashville, but she has not lived in the south for some years, making her home all the time up in Illinois.
of Cambridge, a Hampton trustee, "this public loss and private sorrow calls us to a renewed submission to God and fresh devotion to Hampton." Mr. and Mrs. Julius Rosenwald, of Chicago, "Wonderful achievements and noble life of service, an example for all who have known this great and good man." M. Gandy, president Colored Normal School, Petersburg, Va., "Our race has lost a good friend and wise counselor, and the nation a sane and aggressive leader."
Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., "A great man has been called home. He has rendered a great service to this country and to humanity. Thousands and tens of thousands of people will mourn his going."
Anson Phelps Stokes, of Yale University, "Dr. Frissell's life was an inspiration to all who knew him, and his influence will be enduring."
Henry Roe Cloud, "His spirit marches on in the Indian race."
Jacob Schiff, "Exceptionally noble and genial man, whose memory will ever remain a blessing."
Lyman Abbott, "Dr. Frissell's single-hearted devotion to a great cause, guided to noble ends by a practical wisdom, inspired the reverent admiration of all who knew him or his work. No one can fill his place, but the work which he so efficiently organized will be carried on by those whom he endured with his spirit."
Those present at Hampton for the funeral included Hampton trustees, workers, and graduates; heads of colored schools; and many Northern and Southern friends representing different classes and ranks of society.
Mrs. H. B. Frissell left Hampton immediately for Whitefield N. H., where Dr. Frissell had passed quietly away on Sunday evening at six o'clock.
LIFE OF SERVICE.
Hollis Burk Frissell spent all his life in wise unselfish service to his fellowmen. Born in Amenia, N. Y., on July 14, 1851, he early learned to be of service to his own family. He helped his father, Rev. Amasa Cogswell Frissell, in the work of the American Tract Society. In 1874 he was graduated from Yale and, in 1879, from Union Theological Seminary. He became in 1880 assistant pastor of the Madison Avenue Church, New York, and a little later became chaplain of Hampton Institute. When General S. C. Armstrong died in 1893, Dr. Frissiel became principal At the time of his death Dr. Frissell was a member of a number of educational boards, including the General Board of the John Hancock ad a trustee of several colored schools. In 1914 he became president of the New York State Colonization Society and in 1916 was elected president of the Mandingo Association.
Dr. Frissell gave much of his time, thought, and strength to the constructive work which is being carried on in American education. His sympathies extended to all classes. Through modesty, meekness, and sincerity he won the friendship of rich and poor everywhere.

TRUE TEMPERANCE—WARNS
THAT MEN WHO DRINK HARMN-

Washington, D.C. Aug 16—The
United States Senate has been grap.
pling with the question of National
Prohibition, and many’ notable specch-
es have been mate, Dit none more
notable than that of the great Senator
from Massachusetts, the Hon. Henry
Cabot Lovige, who is making a fight
for true temperance, Senator Lodge
in his great speech said:
“Personally, 1 believe that every hn
man being wou be far better off, mor-
ails, mentally and physically, it he
hover touched alcohol, For the benefit
Sf mankind 1 want to see that result

“From the earliest times of recorded
history, so far as we know, mankind |
has devised for itself and consumed
some sort of beverage — containing
leohol. There is not, so far as 1am
aware, a tribe of savages, even of the
lowest stage, which has not greedily
accepted alcoholic Hquors when it had
the opportunity, We are therefore
dealing with what is perhaps the most
deeply planted habit of human nature.
“Except the natural instincts, there
‘is nothing which has such roots in the
life of man on earth as this habit of
taking alcoholic stimulants, The facts
Thave enumerated ought to warn every

some caution in dealing with an indul-
gence to which the human race has so
long been habituated.
“My own belief is that practically
complete abstinence may be brought
about when the large majority of peo-
ple are convinced that it is wise. I
am avware that this wiil take time,
but the steady growth of public senti-
ment in favor of complete temperance
and the abolition of the use of alcohol
in any form proves, I think, that it is a
well founded and entirely reasonable

“I do not think the people of this
country are as yet prepared in opinion

thy the extreme legislation carried in

IN MEMORY OF JAMES HARRIS.
May God be in the home of sor-
Tow to comfort the bereaved hearts, so
early called to mourn the loss of an-
other sister. May we follow her as she
followed Christ until called to go to
her heavenly home.
She was converted and joined the
New Hope Baptist Church in which
she remained a faithful member until
her death. A beautiful life was ended
in this world and was translated to
the heavenly world. Since this dear
‘one left us nothing is too good to be
said of her. She was a devoted com-
panton, a tender loving mother and sis.
ter. Her family life was most beautt-
ful in her home, She was always kind
and thoughtf™! of the comfort and
happiness of each member of the house-
hold. “She was a wou of great sym
pathy, wholly unselfish and. she Wor

She is not dead, but sleepeth, The
[resurrection of Christ is a proof

us that a death does not end all, tha

THEATRICALS
The head of the S. H. Dudley Theatrical Enterprises is an "easy boss," but one who gets better results than a martinet, if the earnest and eloquent tributes of affection and loyalty expressed by the employees of the big theater on Friday night at the 1223 7th street, N. W., form any criterion for judgment.
S. H. Dudley, on the eve of his departure for New York to join the Dave Marion "World of Frolic for 1917" to be gone through the season, conceived the idea of giving a spread for as many of his staff as could be recorded, as a testimonial of his appreciation of their long and faithful service.
The affair was carefully planned and was pulled off on schedule time, the festivities beginning just after the performances at the several houses Saturday night, and ending when everybody had his fill of the good things handed out. The menu was elaborate and plentiful, embracing a range of solids that nourished and liquids that cheered the inner man. To all of it is needless to say, ample justice was done. Then came the speech-making—and there were some speeches made—not empty, but with a sense of purpose, sober, admirably-poised interchange of ideas between a broad-visioned and liberal employer and a group of friends who were assisting him to make a business success in which all were partners and profit-sharers.
Mr. Dudley told in detail of the enterprises he is trying to build up—one which will give steady and increasingly remunerative salaries to all kinds of colored people, where they may be assured of fair treatment and an opportunity to develop along whatever line their talents permitted. In the company were assistant managers, advertising agents, ticket-sellers, doorkeepers, doorkeepers, scene painters, electricians and caretakers—and some of them combined these useful functions with a clever turn before the footlights. Mr. Dudley believes in the power of the press—and the press was there, as it always is when Mr. Dudley has the "say so" to the invitations. Mr. Dudley stated that he may not be paying his people all they ought to receive but he is doing the best the business will stand in its present era of development, and he has made a very richer. He commanded their loyalty, their patience and many evidences of sympathetic interest and asked that the same spirit of cooperation continue. To this sentiment all heartily subcribed and it was the consensus of opinion around the festive board that it was a pleasure and a privilege to be associated with Mr. Dudley in a

calling that promised so well for the future. It was a veritable "loveeaf," and the "boss" and his helpers parted with assurances that each in his place would do his bit to the full extent of his ability.
Among the festive gathering were Miss Desdemona W. Barnett, N. Dudley's chief mentor and general manager W. Thompson, of the press station; Ethel Ewing, Mrs. Rich Massie Abbott, Grace Morgan, Carter Lockhart, Lillian Buchanan, Frederie co DeBottis, J. W. Minor, Willis Lucas Frank Anderson, Charles ("Green Grass") Mason, Harry Hall, Charlie Ost, Roland Brown, Alma Miller and others. Mr. Dudley, as host, was giv en a roaring farewell at the close.

Miss Ethelyn Proctor Claimed by Death.
Mrs. Luke A. Scott, professionally known as Miss Ethelyn Proctor, died a few days ago at the family home near Arlington, Va. after a long siege of illness. She was a sufferer from a form of tuberculosis, which resisted the most skillful specialists, but she bore her aliments with a fortitude that was unquarried, and when she passed before her passing to the Great Beyond. She lived up to high ideals as a performer and was satisfied with nothing short of perfection in whatever she attempted, being ambitious far in excess of her physical strength. She was a capable singer, dancer and sketch artist, and was one of the most promising of the younger set of the musical and dramatic fraternity. She had a lovable disposition and the affection she held for those who she cast her lot for any period. The passing of Mrs Scott is a distinct loss to the profession, in which she seemed destined to shine. Mr. Scott, who is an esteem Washingtonian, has the sincere sympathy of the entire theatrical craft in his hour of sad bereavement
"Close-up Views" of Plays and Players
It is reported that the Chelsea Theater, M Street, between 19th and 20th streets, is to be reopened under new management. Pictures and vaudeville are to be offered. The Dudley Circuit will book the vaudeville attractions.
George Martin is making things hum at the Blue Mouse. One vaudeville act is used weekly along with high-class photo-plays.
Washington's movie lovers are anxious to get a peep at "The Bar Sister," photo-play in which the race problem is dealt with on the square, and which made such a hit with New Yorkers. The folks here would also beapt to present on the much talked of "Trooper of Troop K," a picture featuring an all-colored cast by Noble M. Johnson. This film is owned by the Doullass Company of which Charence E. Wells of Phila delphia is the eastern manager.
S. H. Dudley has gone to New York to join the Dave Marion burlesques in a revised edition of "The Works of Frolic." Dudley, who was featured strong last season, has a part this year that is said to outrank his former work. He is to present an entirely new specialty, with nothing old remaining but "Patrick" the mule and he will have new lines.
The complaint of Speaker Champ Clark that all of the national anthems, like "Star-Spangled Banner," "America," "Battle Hymn of the Republic," etc., lack "pep," leads us to remark that here is a fine chance for some of our crack colored composers to immortalize themselves by putting forth an American tune that will inspire our troops to victory in the trenches of France. Mr. Clark is not strongs for "Tipperary," and others say that "Dickie" is local, "Yankee Doodle" is open to the same audience as "Old Town" is without motif. If the right air, with sentiment and punch combined, is to be written, page Harry T. Burleigh Rosamond, Johnson, T. Burleigh Frank B. Williams or some of the other brain boys that have made the welkin ring in the past with time tunes.
Miss Goldie Chappelle is in the city the guest of Miss B. H. B. Hook, of Coronar street. She made the hit of her career here during the production of "Broadway Rastus," in the role of "Mineola," succeeding Sadie McCarr on short notice. Miss Chappelle was particularly good in her two solo numbers, "Remember," and the Indian melody, "The Lower Bold." Temporarily, Miss Chappelle has retired from the stage.
All things considered it has been a long time since Washington has seen as good a team as Ross and Charles, Charles and Bessie. Their work is clean and classy, full of riotous fun, yet so delicately put that it would be acceptable in a parlor. Then rapid-dire conversation fairly bubbles over, and the team matches that they prove a perfect foil for each other's shafts of humor. Mr. Ross is a natural singer and a nimble dancer. Miss Ross is a beauty—tall, dignified and graceful, and wears some pretty gowns Her Hawaiian number is dainty done and her voice withal is of a time that please and enchants. Miss Ross is an Indianapolis product—the home of more diversified teams. Ross and Charles are making the rounds of the Washington houses, playing six solid weeks here, with success at every point. They go west at the close of their season on the Dudley wheel.
Sam Gray, one of the mainstays of the Whitney "Smarter Set," now at the Foraker, was understudy for Whitney last season and was highly commended by the critics for his conception of the comedy role of "George Washington Bullion." The part fell to him on the very closing night of the show here in June, owing to the sudden illness of Mr. Whitney, and he acquitted himself with great credit. It is expected that Mr. Gray and Miss Dunlap, his partner, will both be assigned to responsible roles in the new smart Sherlock Protagonist piece, "My People." Gray and Dunlap are experienced performers and have worked their way to the top by constant and intelligent labor.
Salem Tutt Whitney and company will arrive in the city Sunday. On Monday they will defy the so-called "13" hoodoo and begin rehearsals of "My People" on the stage of the Howard, used through the courtesy of Manager A. J. Thomas. The regular season is scheduled to open on the 27th.
Harry Brown. Hudelsin and Bumbray and Means and Means are in Baltimore.
Manager Robert Levy, of the Quality Amusement Company, announces a monster production of Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Mikado" for early in the fall. "Robin Hood" may be given later. It is expected that the Quality corporation will come to the Howard on an average of twice a week. The people are growing more and more appreciative of high-class offerings and will pay the price.
S. H. Dudley, nothing daunted by newsman reports, visited his mother in Chester, Pa., in the height of the riot period, but was unhurt. He role in his own white steamer, accompanied by his son, Master Shermun, Dudley, Jr.
Lake A. Scott, singer, composer and legitimate actor, is to join the Whitney and Tutt forces in "My People." He will be a strong addition to "The Snarter Set."
Miss Esther Jigoeh, the vital spark of "Broadway Rastus" cut short her rest here. Suecumbing to the lure of the footlights, she has joined her company, which is in Norfolk. Vaz patringa or a summer season of must comedy stores at the Palace Theater.
★★
Now that Miss Blanche Thompson, the sweetest singer today in musical comedy, has recovered from her recent indisposition, it is barely possible that she may resume her place as leading lady of the Whitney and Tutt "Smarter Set." If the persuasions of her friends are effective, she will be found doing the high spots this season in the Whitney and Tutt Offering "My People," which has been written in for her, which will show off her brilliant vocal talents to better advantage than in anything she has yet done.

Morgan M. Coleman is operating both the Iceland Airblden and the Palace Summer Garden in the south west section and is doing an immense business. By a special arrangement with Saturday night "Country Store," that is packing "em in and the really worth-worthy prizes are sending the lucky ones home hapy. He is spitting his vaudeville be between the two parks, changing on Thursday nights.
The suggestion of a new and commodious theater on U street for the accommodation of novelty vaudeville musical comedy, stock, local productions, concerts, benefit entertainments, etc., has struck a popular chord and the people say "It's just the things that the town needs." There is ample room for two big houses for the northwest section, just as there is for both the Lincoln and the Lafayette in the Harlem district of New York City. They serve entirely different and distinct needs.
Of the ladies of "The Smarter Set" none showed such marked development over former appearances here as Miss Estelle Cash, in private life, Mrs. Al Watts. Six years of hard and conscientious study with such masters of music as Rosamond Johnson and others in the music industry, City, which has marked wonders with her naturally sweet and sympathetic voice. She has attained skill as a dancer and all-round artist, under the patient instruction of Mr. Watts, and now Miss Cash is truly one of the top-notchers of musical comedy. She is tall and statuesque and has a stage presence that is attractive and limousine successful. Miss Cash has lost none of the charming simplicity that made her a warm favorite in other days on and off the stage.
Edward Tolliver, a well-known performer, is spending a few days in the city. He may enlist as one of the stellar lights of the "Smarter Set" for the coming season. Mr. Tolliver is a clever impersonator and character artist, and has been seen with the Whitneyvites before.

Rev. G. W. Gray was at his post of duty Sunday and preached two good sermons. His text at 11:30 o'clock was St. Matt. 8:9, "And he saith unto him, Follow me. He and arose and followed him." His subject was "Follow Jesus." At 7:30 he spoke from Isa. 65:71, "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered. The Ladies' Missionary Society held a very interesting meeting Sunday afternoon. Mrs. C. P.

The St. John Baptist Church will give her pastor a rally August 26, 11:17. At 11:30 it will attend. We hope to make it a happy for him. Mr. M. L. Trimble of Lavergne and Mr. John H.

HAMPTON'S TRIENIAL REUNION
(Continued from page 1.)
cussions followed. Two elements were present—the conservatives and the progressives.
"Thegressives, headed by the younger members, were for the enlargement of the functions of the Asquithians and were anxious to make themselves felt for good along some definite lines. This awakening is a very good sign of the times and shows that there has been some thinking done. There is no reason in the world why a thousand and more of educated men and women should not, by co-operation with some things to pass on which they desire.
Scholarship Campaign.
"One of the pressing questions before the Association is the completion of the Permanent Scholarship. The presided call for tunds for this purpose and the response was quite generous.
"There were on hand $1,439 toward the $2,500. At the close of the session the amount on hand was a little over $1,100. It is intended by next April to have the entire sum in hand.
"The following chapters responded: Norfolk and Portsmouth, $100; Hampton and Newport, News, $80; New York, $25; Chicago, Boston and Washinton were not heard from at this time."
Interesting Program.
"All the members repaired to the lawn of the Mansion House at the close of the meeting where a lunch was served by the local committee, and from there an inspection of James Hall was made. Then all assembled around General Armstrong's grave to show their love and loyalty to the memory of the one who made Hampton Institute possible. Here were revived touching memories of General Armstrong and his family." "A special meeting of the Annual Association will be called next year to help celebrate Hampton's Fiftieth Anniversary." "The Committee on Memorials reported fifty-four members as having died during the past three years."
"Only a few changes in the executive committee were made by the Committee on Nominations. The officers remain as heretofore: President, William M. Reid, '77, Portsmouth, Va.; Vice President, Caspar M. Titus, $78, Norfolk, Va.; Recording Secretary, Don A. Davis, '89, Hampton institute, Va.; Financial Secreta Institute, Washington, '89, Institute Washington, '89, Corresponding Secretary, Miss Calista Sheppard, '90 Norfolk, Va.
Timely Resolutions.
"The Committee on Resolutions brought in a most thoughtful and timely set of resolutions.
"The pledged their faith in and allegiance to their alma mater and the principles of education for which she stands, also pledged to take an active part in the affairs for which she advocates and to help make her work increasingly effective.
"They stated that the time had come that Hampion should attempt to assume greater financial obligations toward the maintenance of the Hampton Institute, and that the remainder of the scholarship be raised before the Fifteenth Anniversary of the school
Plea for Music Courses.
"The following resolution was presented: "Whereas, In many parts of the country musical training has become an established part of the curriculum of the common schools and teachers seeking appointments are required to have a knowledge of the same; and "Whereas, Negroes are a music-loving people, and music forms no large a place in their church and general social life; be it " "Resolved, That we, the Hampton Alumni Association, request that Hampton Institute offer courses in instrumental and vocal music that will provide the training necessary to meet the foregoing conditions. Be it " "Resolved, That we urge our alma mater to offer a full standard high school course of study for the general body of the school, and that further a special two-year normal course be given for those especially preparing to do." The resolutions ended with the usual vote of thanks for kindness shown.
Bandfiet and Addresses.
"One hundred and sixty were present at the banquet and the scene in the dining-room was a very beautiful one. An orchestra from Norfolk dispersed sweet music while all present proceeded to eat the sumptuous reast furnished for the occasion. American flags formed the decorations.

SPORTING NEWS.
Well, well, the mighty Sox went down before the mighty Nationals, Sunday. Those mighty Nationals are some hitters. Charleston, Boyd, Hurt, Marret, Vaughn, Myles, Matters, are certainly murdering the old base ball. Old Sam Morman of the mighty Sox tried to pitch but he only lasted one inning and Mr. Stratton tried his hand but those Nationals had started on the war path. The Sox were unable to check the boys, Kid Merritt of the Nationals is certainly proving his worth. The kid won his own game with a timely single to center field. Neal Boyd of the Nationals is certainly playing a whale of a game at second. Big Faty Myles is stinging the old pill, he hit one of the longest balls at Greenwood Park. The old pill rolled back to the center old dence. John Ware of the Nationals is balling. The can talk can fight. Captain Hurt is certainly playing a whale of a game. Garrett of the Swifts is certainly proving untrue to his fellowman. Truth seems to be hard for him to tell. Good bye old Sox don't cry the Nationals have beat you bye and bye.

session for education, and that this alone would be but one of the objects that would receive attention. He went over the home mission and foreign mission work. He paid his respects to the great strides made by the National Baptist Publishing Board in the city of Nashville, and declared that through the efforts of Dr. Boyd, the most magnificent and by far the most gigantic institution that any religious denomination had built, stood as a monument in Nashville to the denomination, and that generations yet unborn would reap the benefits of this work who are standing like a stone wall by the epinices of the denomination. Dr. Jones was invited to the city by the local ministers who are planning to entertain the convention, and his coming is regarded here as the entering wedge of the progressive march of Baptists in the state of Georgia. Dr. E. R. Carter, pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church, and Rev. Ernest Hall, pastor of the Liberty Baptist Church, were who received President Jones, together with a number of laymen, such as Wm. Driskell, Mr. B. J. Davis, Mr. H. W Russell and a score of others. He was stated today after the meeting ad journed, that the meeting had conducted and assist in the enter contend of the National Baptist ConVENT that is to be held in the Friendship Church, September 5:21s.

The rally at the Baptist Church at this place was largely attended. Representatives from Bryant Town, Bryant's Grove, Olive Branch, Smyrna, Lavergne, Nashville, Evans Hill and other places too numerous to mention Rev. Jenkins of the C. M. E. Church, and Z. Hill of the South Nashville Primitive Baptist Church preached strong sermons. Quite a large sum was realized. Mrs. Katie Port, who is spending a day at the memorial center the day, bringing alone the amount of $15.00. Rev. J. H. Harding was well pleased with the affair, Mrs. J. H. Harding was elated over the visit of her mother and sister of Kingston Springs. Mrs. N. E. Ross is some what indisposed at this writing.

NEW OFFICE CREATED IN K. P. RANK
(Continued from page 1.)
departments general oversight of the thirty six deputies of the state will be another part of this new official work
The burial bureau is a new department of the order and a successful one, but there are difficulties concerning this department that need just such service as the Field Deputy Grand Chancellor will be able to render. The Pythian Temple project is very new and needs the earnest care of a man who is deeply interested in constructive Pythianism. The Endowment department is also to be benefited by establishment of the office of Field Deputy. Many lodges, for one reason or another have been discontinued. Many of the members want to return to the order, the Field deputy will reinstate or reorganize such lodges and bring back to the a goodly number of former members. There are some weak lodges barely existing—His aim shall be to put new life and vigor into such lodges and inspire them to greater and grander efforts. The order in this state expects to be greatly benefited by the creation of this new office.
The promotion of Knight Fite leaves a place in the rank of deputies to be filled. A man must be found to serve the fourteen lodges of Nashville. The Grand Chancellor so far as is known has made no selection of Knight Fites successor.
The coming meeting of the Supreme lodge at St. Louis will find a number of Nashville men and women in that city. Dr. J. P. Crawford has already gone to St. Louis preparatory to the assembling of the Supreme delegates. A. W. Fite has gone to Indianapolis, Ind., to visit his boys and will go to St. Louis from that city. Knight T. Clay Moore, will meet the Chattanooga delegates and travel with them to the Mound City.
Miss E. Joe Cockrill, the Supreme Worthy Matron, will leave at an early date.
Mrs. W. L. Miller, Past Grand Worthy Counsellor, will also make the trip. It is understood that Dr. Mattie Coleman, Grand Med Register, Mrs. J. A. Lester, Mrs. Mamie Turner-, Mrs. T. A. Freeman, Mrs. Katie Wilson, Grand Worthy Matron and Miss Maggie Green of Columbia will be in the party. The Florida and Georgia delegates will arrive in Nashville over the famous Dixie Flyer Route at 4:55 p. m. Sunday and will spend about four hours in Nashville. Dr. Butler of Atlanta and Sir Knight Stewart will be in the party. They leave for St. Louis at 8:15 jounging the Alabama and Mississippi delegates at Martin, Tenn.
