SE RACE RIOT IN HOUSTON, TEXAS Trial Now in Progress Officers Testify—Much Information Being Given. Houston Observer. Houston was the scene of a race riot Thursday night, when members of the 24th Infantry, U. S. A., sought to avenge the brutal treatment accorded two Negro regulars by two mounted policemen Thursday afternoon. After these officers had beat up the first regular and sent him to prison, the Negro military police accosted the officers to ascertain the trouble and he was shot at and chased into a nearby residence, where the officers pulled him out and after subjecting him to a severe drubbing, sent him to the police station also. The Negro troopers became hot in the collar at the treatment accorded one of the best-behaved men in the entire regiment and secured ammunition and began to shoot up the town. At the hour of going to press fourteen are reported killed; 13 whites, including one officer of the Illinois regiment, and four city policemen. One Negro trooper was killed. Eighteen were wounded, including thirteen white and five Negro infantrymen. Martial law was immediately declared and all saloons, hardware stores, and other places of business ordered closed. Thus far no report has been made of any Negro civilians participating in the disturbance. Crowds of white gathered at different places during the evening, but they did not attempt any action. Friday morning, the downtown district assumed a holiday or Sunday attitude, but everything was quiet and orderly. In the fourth ward citizens were not allowed to leave their homes to go to work Friday morning and telephone service was badly demoralized. The officials deserve great praise for the excellent manner in which they handled the situation. The body of Sergeant Vita Henry, Co. 24th Infantry was found Friday morning, bringing the total dead to 15 and increasing the dead troopers to 2. It is alleged that Henry, a seasoned veteran, was the ring leader. The Observer urges all Negroes to keep their mouths shut and stay off the streets, invite no trouble from soldiers or civilians, obey the martial and municipal laws and protect your homes. REPORT OF OFFICERS COMMAND ING NGROES. Major L. S. Snow, commanding the battalion of Negroes, made this statement of two occurrences Thursday that crystallized feeling among men of his command that had been increasing since the battalion was sent here from Deming, N. M., three weeks ago, for guard duty on the site of Camp Logan while the camp was being constructed: "The Thursday a Houston police officer arrested a Negro woman on or near Shrimp Creek, and he was so, am informed, wrapped her face. A soldier of the Twenty-fourth, who had been drinking, remonstrated with the patrolman for what he considered his unnecessary violence in striking her. The officer, according to reports made to me, used abusive language to the soldier, and struck him repeatedly over the head and in the face with the but of his pistol. "The man's face and head were badly cut with the pistol butt. He was arrested by the same officer and taken to the station, where he is snow held." "Thursday afternoon, according to reports made to me by Corporal Baltimore of my military police force, a soldier of the company was arrested in officer, Corporal Baltimore, who was nearby, wearing his military police badge, asked the policeman, purely for information, he says, why the man was arrested. CORPORAL SAYS HE WAS HIT BY THE POLICE. "The policeman told him it was none of his business. He then, Corpora Baltimore and the arrested soldier, both state, hit Baltimore over the head with a pistol butt. Corporal Baltimore ran up the street, the policeman firing at him as he fled. He took refuge in a house under a bed The policeman followed, dragged him put from beneath the bed, using further abusive anguage to him and struck him twice more with the pistol butt. "When the men in camp heard of these occurrances Thursday afternoon it excited them greatly and they made open threats of retaliation." A conference was held by Major Snow and Chief of Police Brock. It was followed by the issuance of an order from the chief instructing policemen to call the soldiers "colored NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE.

In addition to these, there will be two special sleepers with the Kansas, Missouri, Colorado and Nebraska delegations. Southern Illinois is to come in for a large share. Every minister in Middle Tennessee that is co-operating with the Missionary Baptist State Convention is making plans and preparations to go to the Atlanta meeting. At the Baptist State Convention it was decided it was on the hour of departure, and telegrams were sent to various sections of the country notifying them of Nashville's time of departure. This was done because it had been requested that Nashville wait for the western and northern delegations. This special will arrive in Atlanta Wednesday morning at 7:40, September 5th. Among those who will attend from Nashville are the following: Rev. an. Mrs. C. H. Clark, Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Boyd, Ws. W. Elington, Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Wolley, C. Fields, J. Guarter, C. Bolden, A. W.

The Delegated Assembly of the Benevolent Orders of the State of Tennessee held their annual session in Humboldt, Tenn., Aug. 20-25, W. W. Williams, Nashville, Grand President, presiding. More than eighty grand officers and delegates were in attendance and much work was accomplished for the good of the fraternity. The reports of the grand officers and delegates showed a general increase in the order both financially and numerically. The four years' limit in office having expired, W. W. Williams, Grand President, retired from office, having acquitted himself beyond our most sanguine expectation. During his four years in office he added sixteen new members which brought into the order hundreds of members and several thousand dollars' worth of property. His successor in office is Prof. W. R. Davis of Nashville. Prof. Davis is a graduate of Fisk University and is one of the prime movers in the order, having acquired one of its most important offices. He is well up on modern institutions and we predict for him much success while in office. The death benefit department of the order is in a healthful condition financially speaking. Prof. Davis, Mrs. Rosie L. Winstead and Wm. Copeland have been at the head of this department four years.

WOMAN'S AUXILIARY The Auxiliary of the Fifteenth Avenue Baptist Church met at the residence of Mrs. Ellen Murray, 1629 State street, last Thursday night August 23rd. The meeting was called to order by the president with song and prayer. Scripture reading from the 13th chapter of Matthew The lesson was discussed for twenty minutes by Sister Cordella Miller, after which quotations and dues were responded to by the members. The collection was a splendid one.

The meeting was dismissed by Sister Cordella Miller, after which ladies were served a delicious course and cake by the hostess, assisted by her daughter, Mrs. Mattie Brown. Each and every one seemed to enjoy the evening to the very highest. They thanked the hostess and returned to their several homes. Great Numbers in attendance-Much Loyalty to the Order Shown Support Promised. During the week of August 19-25 St. Louis, Mo., was alive with the most prominent Pythians of the race. The meeting was an exceedingly good one and will go down in fraternal history as one of the most beneficial conventions ever held by that August body.. Many prominent Tennesseans attended the Supreme lodge and it may be interesting to many in this jurisdiction to know something of the personel of our mea and what they represent. Among the leaders from Tennessee we mention first Dr. J. P. Crawford, the leader of Pythianism in the state. For nineteen years this distinguished Sir Knight has been the head of the order in this jurisdiction. He has been identified with every progressive movement among Pythianism in this country for a number of years. As a Grand Chancellor, he has had a large experience, so much so that he is eminently fitted to carry out the extensive plans of the great Destroyer of Tennessee. Dr. Crawford is not only active in Pythian circles but in the educational world also. For a number of years he was principal of the largest Grammar School in the city of Nashville. He is now Supervisor of Grammar schools which position is the highest in the gift of the board of public education in the city of Nashville. In the Supreme Lodge, Sir Crawford is chairman of the Committee on Finance. Another prominent Tennessee in the Supreme lodge was Sir Knight A. W. Fite, for sixteen years the Deputy Grand Chancellor of the middle district of Tennessee. Sir Fite's work in the interest of the order has been of so much benefit during all these years that at the last grand session he was elected Field Deputy Grand Chancellor. Sir Fite is a member of Damon Lodge, a member of his five years was president of the Phyllian Hall Association of Nashville. The popularity of Sir Knight Fite was thoroughly demonstrated at the Grand Lodge Session, when such distinguished Pythians as A. N. Johnson, J. C. Napier, J. Milton Easterling, and U. W. Richardson, deemed it an honor and a privilege to second his nomination for the position of Field Deputy. Sir Fite's activity has won for him a host of loyal friends throughout the state Sir Fite served on the Committee of Rules in the Supreme Lodge. From West Tennessee came one of National fame, the eloquent Col Roscee Simmons. Col Simmons is so well known that it seems unceasy to say other than he was there. The Colonel is a member of the Binghamton Lodge of Memphis, and went to the Supreme Lodge as a representative of the State of Tennessee. In the Supreme Lodge this great Tennessee was the official reporter Dr. Allen is a member of the firm Allen and Wyckliff, of Chattanooga. This firm is a credit to the city of Chattanooga and is a living example of Negro thrift and business acumen. Dr. C. O. Hunter, the present G. K. R. and S., was also in attendance at (Continued on page 4.) BRIG-GEN PRESTON TAYLOR. Who is in command of Uniform Rank K. of P., of Tennessee and who was in the camps with them at St. Louis, Mo. Through the encouragement of Gen. Preston Taylor the Uniform Rank took on new life. TENNESSEE CAPTURES THE FIRST PRIZE GRAND LODGE Volunteer Company No. 5, Uniform Rank Brings Home the Bacon. St. Louis, Mo.—Perhaps the biggest surprise in the whole Supreme Lodge Encampment was that which was put up by the Volunteer Company Number five, in the manner in which they captured the first prize in the competitive drill. It came as a thunder bolt from a clear sky to the uniform men who were supposed to be better drilled and far better posted in tactics. The men from the Volunteer state however, came in as the one dark horse, under command of B迪ger-directed Taylor, who had instructed all of his officers from the field down to the linenen that they were not to return to their native soil without bringing back one of the prizes. Councils were held daily, and the four companies from Tennessee drilled from early morning until very last at night each day. Thursday morning when the competitive drill was called for, these brave and fearless knights from sunny Tennessee came upon the parade grounds of victory. They were cheered by more than two thousand names, the companies that they were here to see that they were not lacking in encouragement Major General Hall in command of the first battalion and company from Tennessee, strengthened his men in all the weak places and after the last company he has said over the parade ground, he has said. There is nothing to it, we have them. I have seen them all drill and I know exactly the strong points of our company. We made but one error that can reasonably be called an error, and while I admit that our boys包包 up with some good drilling, the Volunteer No. 5 has done the work this day. I am confident of a place, even the first place, but I cannot foretell what the judges will say, but you may tell the folks at home that we have won." It is his remarks and his prophecy, the judges awarded Tennessee the first prize. Notwithstanding that this was Tennessee's first time to send her companies to the Supreme Encampment, she has gone on record and has forged her way to to front, taking rank among such states as Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Brigadier General Taylor stated before leaving for Nassau the womens meet the boys Atlantic City City something even better. Grand Chancellor J. P. Crawford was seen after the decision was made in company with such sir knights as As W. Fite, Dr. R. W. Allen, W. A. Thompson, T. Clay Moore, C. O. Hunter, and with such members of the Court of Calamus as Meedames Burk and Kennedy of Knoxville. Clemene White, Lester and others from Nashville. They declared that they felt proud of the Uniform Rank. The company left St. Louis for their homes jubilant over the work they had accomplished. They had accomplished. tHey are to be given a reception within a short time by their Nashville friends. Volunteer Company No. 5, Uniform Rank K. of P., who captured the first priz in the Competitive Drill at the Encampment held at St. Louis, Mo., last week. The company was with the First Battalion of the Tennessee Pythians. It was the pride of the Pythians through the week. They received a great ovation from the Tennessee Colony as they passed in review on the street parade and on the drill grounds.

Moore elected Grand Master-Many Delegates And Visitors Present. The D. G. L. and D. G. H. of R. held their biennial session at Knoxville, Tenn., August 14th to 17th, 1917. Monday, August 13th, was Patriarchy held day. They held their business session at the Knoxville Banner trial from 1 p. m. to 2 p. m., after which they marched, headed by Col. J. W. Grant and Lieut. Col. W. H. F. Brown to the street car on day street, tuition to Park where the field day exercise consisted of drills (Mike Co. C. and the ladies' auxiliary drill corps, the balance of the day and evening were spent in dancing and convivialities. At 10 a. m., on the morning of Aug. 14th the public preliminary exercises were conducted. The order marched from Old Fellows building on Vine avenue to the City Market Hall, where they were welcomed to the city by the mayor, J. E. McMillan. Several addresses were made which were concluded with an address by Hon. J. W. Grant, Past D. G. M. and Colonel of the 10th Patriarchi ellegt. of Tennessee. During the three (3) days' sessions much business of vital importance was transacted, chief of which were the closing of the old endowment department and the establishment of a new one with class "A" and "B" policy. The new insurance has a maximum policy in class "A" of $300, reached in five (5) years with quarterly dues of $1.20, while class "B" cuts all the above in half. All present members go in class "A" if they choose, death claims due after membership of six (6) months. New members may enter either class, but benefits are based on age. But this plan must be passed upon by the lodges and the Sub-committee of Management, as it is compulsory. It is believed that the plan is the best yet tried. Provision was made for visitation by the D. G. M. which is a new feature. The bonds of the D. G. S. and the D. G. T. were raised to ten thousand ($10,000) dollars each. The artemis to establish a burial hall failed, so it was told that we had been one thing time since L. C. Moore of Memphis was chosen as D. G. M. for the next two (2) years, with Prof. E. Alston of Covington, Tenn., as D. G. S. and Sec. of Endowment. H. G. Hilliam of Chattanooga was re-elected by acclamation D. G. Treasurer and Treasurer of the Endowment. J. L. Starr of Knoxville was re-elected D. G. M. by acclamation, Bro. Pratt of Chattanooga D. G. D. Hon. J. W. Grant was re-elected D. G. Attorney by acclamation, and Dr. C. O. Hunter was re-elected D. G. Medical Examiner by acclamation. Clarksville was chosen as the next meeting place in 1919, over Nashville and Memphis. While not so large in numbers, owing to disagreements in the executive boards, the war and the most beneficial meetings in the history of the order. It is also felt that the new board will work in harmony and thus lift up the banner of E. L. T. The welcome by the mayor of Knoxville was not the ordinary stereotyped, plattitudinal phrases used on such occasions. The welcome to the greatest city in Tennessee was seen and felt by all the citizens, policemen, street car men and everybody showed it by action. Knoxville is not great as to extent and buildings, but in that which goes to make the strangers within her, gates comfortable and happy. She has half a dozen policemen of our race, nearly all of whom are members of the order. Race men in many official positions. Knoxville has the finest and best equipped high school in the South for her colored children, with every modern appliance. Great is Knoxville, with a friendly feeling MRS.

LABOR DAY Monday, Sept. 3rd 2 Boston Woman Recommending It To Her Friends Boston Woman Recommending It To Her Friends Popular Besten Lady says Ten line Has proven a Godsend to 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 lives in Boston and is possessed of the real confidence 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, and after I ate a little food it would ferment and cause gas to form in my stomach. I had pains all over my body and was tormented constantly. My liver was felt generally miserable. I had遗失ed and had been in the hospital, but received no permanent relief. I was so nervous and restless that an night I could scarcely sleep. The gas pressing under my heart caused pain and when I arose in the morning I was taken away when 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 pain; in fact, it has cured me, and I am recommending it to my children, as it has been a Godsend to me." All drugists sell and guarantee tonilone. There are numerous symptoms of this trouble that tonilone can relieve. In fact, any of the following may do the trick: the stomach. In digestion, dyspepsia, and bad breath, sick throbbing headache, poor circulation, night sweats, that tired feeling, costiveness, coated tongue or a poor compulsion. Caution: As tonilone is recurrent, this builder those that wishing to incure their weight 13 pounds or more should not take it continuously. -Ady. POST OFFICE CLOSED ON LABON DAY. The Nashville Post Office will be closed the entire day on Monday, September 3rd, on account of it being Labor Day which is a legal holiday. The law governing holidays in the postal service is as follows: "That hereafter when the needs of the Postal Service require the employment on holidays of clerks in first and second class post offices and letter carriers in the City Delivery Service, the employees who are required and ordered to perform holiday work shall be allowed compensatory time on one of the thirty days following the holiday on which they perform such service: Provided, That for the purpose of this Act holidays shall be New Year's Day (January first); Washington's Birthday (March twenty-second); Memorial Day (May fourth); Independence Day (May fourth); the first Monday in September, known as Labor Day, Christmas (December twenty-fifth); and such other days as the president of the United States may set apart as fast or Thanksgiving Day." Postmaster Shannon believes that it is better to close the office on the holiday than it is to curtail service on some other day in order to keep open part of Labor Day. The office will be closed in its entirety and the only way that patrons who desire to get important mail can receive it is by either renting a box or by requesting the sender to put a special delivery stamp on any letters that are apt to reach Nashville on that day.

E. Dary, born April 7, 1898, died April 7, 1898, 9 months and 14 days. At the age of 18 months he was adopted in the family of Rev. and Mrs. A. A. Parr. Since which time both parents and son have been bound together by the strongest ties of parental and filial love. He professed a Christian hope at the age of 14 years, joined the church and was baptized by his adopted father, Rev. A. Parr. Possessing the qualities of industry, cheerfulness, vivacity and devotion, and these qualities being more and more developed day by day and year he made all of his friends and especially his parents very hopeful for him a great and useful life's career. To know Aubry was to love him. He was the favorite of the circle in which he moved and not only a favorite, but a leader. He was a devoted son and made himself companion to his adopted parents, who in return bestowed upon him that care, interest and affection as dear as earthly parents bestow. He styled his adopted parents as "Aunt Sis" and "Uncle Pess." These apprehensions and affection falling on a lovingly tender. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. T. O. Fuller of Memphis, at the First Baptist Church of which his adopted parent, Rev. Parr is pastor. "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere" was sweetly rendered by J. D. Scott, Leslie Thompson, Robert Lynk, McKenzie Boyd and Jimmie Lewis Walton. The vocal solo, "Some Sweet Day," by Mrs. Maudie D. Curtis was very affectionately rendered. Rev.

The beautiful moral design in the shape of a heart presented by the Prim Rose Club and the Ideal Club was a lovely token of esteem. The many other floral de- signs given by friends were very beautiful. All the members of the church, the many friends of the family and the citizens of the community extend sympathy to the dear parents in their loss, the cutting off of their fond anticipations for his future usefulness. We can only commend them to our Heavenly father who doth note the sparrows' fall which gives us that sweet assent that he is the faithful of his own and dooth all things well. "Can thy burden on the Lord and he will sustain and comfort thee." and give that consolation that only heaven can give. Mrs. Maud D. Curtis was more than delighted to see her husband, Dr. J. L.

Says a Glass of Hot Water Every Morning Before Breakfast Will Take Off Fat If You Get MoreFresh Air Be Moderate in Your Diet and Reduce Your Weight With Tassco Lack of fresh air weakens 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, Spend as much time as you possibly can in the open air; breathe deeply and get from any druggist a box of tassco, take a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast then take tassco after each meal and at bedtime. Weish 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 if few days' treatment should show a noticeable reduction in weight. There is nothing better for obesity.—Adv. D.

Crimination and recriminations are being indulged in personal abuse is being resorted to and much ill feeling is being mani fested. But above all of this Hilary E. Howse towers like a giant oak His detractors only serve to make more certain his election. The people have no patience with mud slingers and will show them no favors on September 13th. Hilary E. Howse deserves the vote and confidence of every fair minded man in Nashville for the good deeds he has done in the past. He has always been the friend of the epople and the people are going to stand by him. We are not unmindful that he emancipated the city prisoners from fetters and shackles. He inaugurated hite movement for the purchase of Hadley Park. he was instrumental in securing for us the Negro library, he was an important factor in the building of the tuberculosis hospital, he saw to it that two Negro nurses were employed by the city. His official life, was filled to the brim with good things for the people. We are not ingrates, and therefore cannot forget his kindness to the lowly and down trodden. His charity to the unfortunate, cannot be overlooked. He has given freely that our churches and benevolent enterprises might live and prosper. Magnanimous is Hilary Howse. the next Mayor of the City of opportunity. SHOOTING UP HOUSTON It is possible for an impartial observer, who can disregard all the antipathies and the causes of antipathy that exist between many of the white folks and the Negro, to enter to a degree into the state of mind of the mad blacks who were responsible for the Houston slaughter. At Houston, it appears, the Negro soldiers had grounds for exasperation because of the stupid and narrow contemptuousness of the police. Insults were offered to the Negro soldiers—men enlisted to fight for the white man's country, as well as their own—by ignorant and stubbon peace officers. Out of those insults grew resentment, hostility, and finally dementia. But we are extremely sorry, that they had to resort to crime. The Negro is not a child race and does not care to be treated as such. Neither is the Negro a brute or a fiend incarnate. He only wants that which is right and equitable. As we have often observed peace officials in some localities are responsible for much that is accredited to the Negro. Much race friction could be avoided if officers would only be tru ee their oath. AUGUST It takes more than comfortable air and gorgeousness of scene to make up a satisfying landscape and climate. Beauty is good and comfort is fine, but along with these must go humble sustenance. Only a transcendentalist too refined for this earth life can despise the scene of plenty which goes with the charm of August in these parts. The green of the fields is more beautiful because it coats roaring ears for our dinner and provides a stimulation for the cows whence comes our cream. The yellow grain stack gets some of its grace from our subconsculous transmutation of the gold of the straw into the gold of the dinner loaf. And what month has a gift equal to the red apple which gleams among the leaves of the August orchard? Or the yellow pumpkin which then begins to take on form and substance? August brings the fulfillment of the promise of May. Let May be loved as sweet sixteen. It is left for August, at least such an August as this, to be the calm, matronly, rich month of the halcyon days. If you were ever a boy in the days of real sport, the days of swimming holes, wild grapes, walnuts, water melons and contraband orchards you know that this is so. Tom Baker, who used to be quite a handy man in the mailing room of the National Baptist Publishing Board is now in Wyoming and writes his friends here that he is catching game fish every minute. We don't believe him because when he was here, he was a very poor angler and was never known to get a bite unless it was a mosquito bite. Tom is a lyre—we may not spell correctly—of no small ability. We were up to Mont Eagle Sunday, the guest o four old friend J. H. Rucks, who is one of the leading deacons of the Sunday school at that place. The way Rucks can line out a hymn, and pray a "prar" is a caution. T. Clay Moore, is back from the supreme lodge at St. Louis. Who there he consorted with Messrs. Budweiser and Lemp and sat under the Anheuser Busch. Dog gone our hard luck, we had to stay in Nashville. If intelligence were customarily measured in long tons, it would still be necessary to resort to the apothecary's scales in a few conspicuous cases. There are some people who surprise their friends once in a while by making a kind remark about somebody. Rumors of the reduction in the price of coal continues to reach us, but reduction seems loath to show up. The minds of some people never work, except with a great effort until they have reached a certain quite satisfactory state of irritability. You are really getting all that is coming to you; what you are shouting for is more than your share. In the presence of this awful war the bill collector sinks into his proper place in the scale of inconveniences. If some girls would use soap as freely as they use talcum powder, the world would be less ill smelling. Well then, let's have some chicken pot pie, the old fashioned kind for dinner Sunday. Oh, joy! The voters of Nashville are going to see that sturdy Hilary E. Howse gets a good substantial majority. Even the worm, you know, and Hilary E. Howse isn't a bit worm-like. Remember the time when you could afford to grease your shovel with a piece of bacon rind? The American pig is something of an aviator himself. Tennessee's at Supreme Lodge (Continued from page 1.) the Supreme Lodge meeting. No more efficient and painstaking official ever held office. The order of Knights of Pythius has never had a more faithful worker in the country in and about Columbia. Dr. Hunter has kept Pythianism alive. He is a man of years of experience as a teacher and a physician. He is a graduate of Fisk University and the Neharry Medical College. At the Supreme Lodge, Dr. Hunter took the past Grand Chancellor Degree, which he richly deserved. Nelson N. Reynolds, Grand Lecturer of this state, was a most interested visitor to St. Louis and the Supreme Session. Sir. Reynolds has been identified with the Court of Calanthe for a number of years and has made an excellent officer for that department of the order. For the last few years he has served the Grand Lodge, and made a success of his efforts. John Singleton of Knowville, was also at the meeting. Sir Knight Singleton, has been a officer of the Tennessee Grand Lodge from time to time for at least ten years. He is now a member of the Pythian Temple Commission. L. E. Brown, of Memphis, was also a prominent figure from our State. Sir Brown is Secretary of the Endowment Board and also for the Burial Bureau in this State. His worth to the order can hardly be estimated. His annual reports to the Grand Lodge are always looked forward to with much pleasure. For many years Sir Brown was president of the Memphis at present member of the faculty of Le Moyne College, located at Memphis. While the Supreme Attorney is not at present staying at home he was born and reared in Tennessee and was one of the Tennesseeans at the Supreme Lodge. The influence of this legal giant could be observed throughout the meeting. His accurate knowledge of the laws governing fraternal bodies is a valuable asset to the Pythians of the race. Col. H. A. Boyd, as a member of the military department was at the sessions. Col. Boyd is a member of Gen. Taylor's staff. He is connected with one of the biggest printing plants for Negroes in this country, while Col. Boyd is a minister of the Gospel, a great Sunday School worker, yet he finds ample time to become active in the order. One of the proudest men in St. NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY AUGUST 31, 1917 Got 'em---Thats All! Quino BEST BY TEST 636 Fogg St. Nashville, Tenn. ELLIOTT A GOOD MAN Bob Elliott, candidate for re-election as commissioner of water works, street cleaning and workhouse, is not a politician, never was and never will be. He is a plain blunt, business man who knows how things should be done. Since he has been commissioner the departments under his charge have been conducted strictly along business lines. No sentiment has dictated his policy; he has done his whole duty as the exigencies of the occasion might demand. He is endowed with push and energy and puts the same exertions into the city's business as he would his own. The waterworks are in a splendid condition, our streets are clean and the workhouse in splendid condition. Nashville cannot afford to turn a man like Bob Elliott down. He has measured up to every requirement full and free. He is the man for the place and should be kept there. He is full of enthusiasm as to the future possibilities of the city. He is for Nashville first, last and all the time and does all in his power to put Nashville in a progressive forefront. We are sure the majority of the voters see it as we do and will act accordingly. Let's re-elect him by a flattering majority. What say you all? REV. J. B. BOLDEN. D. D. Pastor of Foster's Chapel, who will go to the National Baptist Convention in Atlanta. St. Louis, was Brig. Gen. Preston Taylor, of the uniform Rank. He had the distinction of being the first Tennessee to bring back any thing from the Supreme Lodge. Gen Taylor has been a Pythian for a long time, and has realized his dream by having the State of Tennessee to take her rightful place among those who are trying to accomplish things. Dr. C. B. Wickham, the Grand Chancellor of Oklahoma, was knighted in Damon Lodge No. 2, located in Nashville, Tennessee, hence this brother we also claim as one of us. T. Clay Moore, a progressive young business man, of Nashville, and a member of the Friendship Lodge No. 72, received his degree at this meeting. Knight Moore is a Grand Lodge officer. He is in the real estate business and is always interested in the betterment of the people of his city. Knight was born and reared in Nashville, educated in Fisk University and is now securing the public acceptability. Dr. W. A. Thompson, of Chattanooga, as a representative from the jurisdiction, sat in the Supreme Lodge. Dr. Thompson enjoys a large practice in the city of Chattanooga, and is well known among Pythians in this state. He is Grand Medical register, and actually bills the bill. Dr. E. W. Erwin, of Memphis, was also a representative to the Supreme Lodge from Tennessee. Dr. Erwin represents in the order of Knoghfs of Pythias just what he represents in his large practice, conservatism. This Sir Knight is a most valuable asset to the Grand Lodge of Tennessee. The largest practice he enjoys in Memphis is ample proof of his worth. Sir Knight Fred Ewing of Nashville was an interested visitor to the Supreme Lodge. Knight Ewing is a member of Damon No. 2, at Nashville. He is a printer of race ability and is at present employed by the Baptist Publishing Board, 523 Second Ave., N. M., Maj. Geo. Hall, was certainly there shedding tears of joy because his men won in the contest. Sir Knight Hall deserves even more credit than we can give for making it possible to have such a company to represent this great state. At the session had men from every walk of life and as far as we know every man of them did as much as one man could to make the meeting a big success. There may have been many more from this section but the men we have mentioned are amply able to make any meeting worth while. Less we forget "the old war horse" of Pythianism, A. S. Banks of Chatanogao, yes, he was there in all of his adolescent splendor. A Python assemblage without this sage of the order would be like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet left out. Hilary E. Howse and the Negroes of Nashville The three candidates for mayor in the present municipal campaign have all very much to recommend them to the people. Mr. Gupton, of whom we know least, has a splendid reputation as a business man, a church worker and as a citizen. Major Ewing has for some years been a constructive and charming leader of days of Hoover Phillips, when this city overthrew misrule and the ring and really endeavored to give the people the proper kind of government, with much success. Mr. Ewing was one of the foremost men who were fighting for civic righteousness. He at that time deserved and received due appreciation and honor. The people of Nashville, both white and black can never forget him. Mr. Howse is well known. If there is anything in his life and character, private or public, he is not to be missed. It is worth knowing. He has been anyzed and scrutinized and investigated more than any other man among us within the last generation. But it is this very man who has done more for the common people than any Mayor Nashville has ever had. He has come nearer the square deal for all the people, he has come nearer reaching the real purpose of government than any other Mayor Nashville, has known. He has made a deal with the full recognition of all the charges that have been made against him, not forgetting that he was ousted. His interest in and charity for the fortunate of Nashville are far beyond those of any man who has headed our city government. The charge that he did it with other people's money does not in the least discount that interest and that charity, nor does it effect the gratitude of the people toward a benefactor. His big presence has been consistently shown in various definite ways. So consistently, indeed, that it is doubtless a dominant part of his character. He is progressive. I once heard an expert say while Mr. Howse was Mayor, that he showed more knowledge in the matter of municipal improvement than most mayors he had known. This expert was in Nashville at the time and was making a study of our municipality. His work for better schools, better pay for the teachers has not escaped the notice of the people. His interest in parks and rest and recreation places for the people has deservedly made him many friends. The mose worthy and commendable part of his official life is that he has been Mayor of all the people. He has not neglected those who most need the benefits of government and whom most officials neglect. The Negroes who are so systematically disregarded in all such matters as parks, hospitals, manhood rights, or the law and manhood rights, are so solid for Mr. Howse because he tries to give them a sum of deal in these matters. concerned about their opportunities, their homes and their right to live as man than they are about whether a city can borrow money at 3 1/2 or 4 per cent. The credit of a city is important to be a cure, but it is nothing compared to the welfare of the citi- zens, and the man who does most to promote the welfare of all the citi- zens is most deserving of their loyalty and support and is almost sure to receive their support. That is just how the majority of Negroes feel toward Mr. Howse. We have our own views and opinions on him, the charges made against him, the charges willing to state them, if necessary. The Negroes are almost unanimous, for him, for the potent reason that he is his best friend in this race he has been tried and found true— He has expressed this friendship in deeds. The breadth and scope of the man takes in the best interests of all the people. THE MEETINGS OF REV. G. W. WOODBY. Sermons at the Lincoln Theatre. The sermon on the subject, "Feast of the Belahazzars," past and present, was listened to with intense interest as the preacher went on to show that the Chaldeans who were of the Hamilits race, the same as the Negroes of today, set up the first great universal empire which conquered the Jewish nation and burned the beautiful temple built by Solomon contained one hundred and twenty-five men, who were the then known world under Nebuchadnez who was the greatest warrior of his time; great Babylon, the capital, reached the height of its glory and Nebuchadnezwalking upon the temple of his ruler boasted, "Is not this great Babylon that I have built by the might of my majesty, and for the glory of my empire?" When as the preacher said, like the wealthy classes and rulers of today, the old rascal hadn't done anything, Babylon is said to have been a city thirty miles square, with walls many hundred feet high, edifice feel broad, with one hundred feet wide, with a wall still above the walls in which soldiers sat to watch for the enemy. But not understanding all that, Babylon trusted in the sword, and as Christ said, perished by the sword, which is a lesson to the nations of today. Inside her walls were many of the most magnificent palaces of the eastern world. The celebrated hanging gardens built in ridges from the top of the wall down to the streets; planted with flowers and evergreens, enclosed with fountains and with turtles; and intertwined with an intersection of the streets. Here stood the Temple of Belus, six hundred feet high. While in the center of the city was placed the three great palaces of the emperors, the smallest of which was larger than the capitol building at Washington, D.C. surrounded with an additional wall. All of this was built by the labor of the poor, who existed in poverty, as do the poor now. A few people who lived in the city just as it is now. The ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, who visited the city four hundred years B. C., tells us that every woman in Babylon was compelled once in her life to go into the Temple of Belus for immoral YOU CAN HAVE LONG STRAIGHT HAIR If Anxious to Improve Your Hair and General Appearance Read This Carefully There are so many so-called hairgrowers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's hair tonics are made that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smooth and glossy, and easy to wash and dry, desired. To get the best results the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasoap leaves the hair soft and shiny, and imparts a refreshing and lively fragrance, unqualified any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. If your drugst or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler.

This the preacher said was done *i* cities where he had pastored and the money put into the school fund. And we have the Bible and Babylon had not. Is it any wonder that the prophet was told to cry out, "And Babylon the beauty of the Chaldean excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Soom and Gomorrah. And 1 will sweep it with . . . . . . of destruc- shall sleep in their pleasures houses and the Savy shall dance there it shall be a habitation for wild beasts which has been buffeted." The nations of today, the preacher declared, are travelling the same road. He proceeded to point out some of the feasts of our moth. Bishar's zars, both the mournful and the humbly have and the coronation of kings; balls like that of Mrs. Bradley Martin's which cost three hundred dollars from across the Atlantic. He spoke of a dog wedding given by rich Americans and rich people of Paris, costing forty thousand dollars; of another dog dinner given in New York City, at which dogs were fed out of golden dishes, while old men, and little children eat out of sallow dishes; they and their class created all of this wealth wasted upon dogs and killers. The Christian religion is designed to overthrow all of this and put the golden rule into practice as the constitution of nations. All of the great nations of the past, the preacher carried, carried on the same system; the nations of today are trying to maintain. And they went to destruction, which we read about in our schools and colleges, without taking need to the lesson they teach. The speaker declared that his brother ministers are failing to do their duty in not polishing these things out to the many things said, only a few of the many things said, and that has secured the reitted and commonsius Lincoln Theatre for his meetings every Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock promptly. This coming Sunday, September 2, the subject will be "How Capitalism or the Pursuit of Wealth Enslaves the Church and the Ministry." Text, "You cannot serve God and Mammon." Matt. 6:24. SMYRNA. Revival at Mt. View Baptist Church has begun. We are having with us in this revival the noted Dr. W. S. Ellington, of Nashville, and his deacon, Brother Blisse, who is a worker among sinners. Dr. Ellington has been strong香ms and is making the way so plain that all can see and come believing and confessing. He took for his text Monday night Luke 3:9. "And now also the air is unto the root of the trees." In this text the sinners were urged to get ready and to believe as their Father before it is too late. Tuesday night he took for his text Dan 5:27, "Thou art weighed in the balances and art found wanting." He showed the sinner how that we all had to be weighed and how dangerous it is to delay as it will cause them to be fond wanting. Two converts are realized in the persons of Miss Peregrine and Miss Ridley. We are thanking God for the interest these Nashville people are taking in our meeting and are doing all we can to make the revival a success to all—saints and sinners. Dr. Ellington will be with us until Saturday morning and Deacon Bibbs leaves this morning (Wednesday).

M. E. CHURCH. A high day was experienced at Payne Chapel last Sunday. It was the winding up of the "Whirlwind campaign," which had lasted only about three weeks. When the reports were made at night, it showed that $113.00 had been gathered in by the captains and lieutenants. The "gleanings" will doubtless bring the amount up to $125.00 Dr. J. C. Caldwell preached at 11 o'clock, and Rev. H. L. P. Jones spoke at 3 o'clock. The pastor. Dr. J. A. Jones spoke at night on "Civil Righteousness." He took occasion to denounce the recent killing by the city policemen of the two escaped convicts, and hite action of the deputy sheriff of Williamson county, who arrested the two Negro boys and took them to the jail. Dr Jones severely critiqued city authorities for allowink such things to take place, and go unreubaked. The beautiful fairy play by a number of children, under the auspices of the Minnehaha Club, last Monday night, was a great success. The play was conducted by Miss Flagg and others. The monthly general class will be held Sunday morning, and the pastor will preach Sunday night, on the subject, "God's Family." The sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be administered. TRINITY A. M. E. CHUBO Sunday was gala day in Trinity, Sunday School as usual. The lesson was reviewed by Rev. Majors, pastor of Mt. Gilead Baptist Church, who also preached a strong sermon at 11 o'clock to an appreciative audience Text, Rev. 14:3, "And they sang a song," etc., Subject, "Hang out a sign." At 3 o'clock Stoner of Mt. Gilead Baptist Church preacher one of his soul-stirring sermons for which he is so much noted. Everyone seemed to have received a baptism from above. Text, Psalm 133:1, "Behold, how good and pleasant it is for breathon to tell together in unity." Subject, "Union." Clubs Nos.1 and 2, respectively, were well represented by members and friends. At the close of the services each club made a partial report of money's collected which was very creditable and showed that each club had been hard at work. The captains say that "The half has not been told." On the fourth Sunday in September a final report will be made at which time each club expects to by the help of members and friends, lay $50 or more on the table. The lucky club at this time will receive the prize. At the time when we felt that all was joy and relief for the church, a deep shadow of grief has been cast upon us. On Wednesday morning at 6:15 o'clock the sad Angel of Death visited our ranks and took from it one of our most valiant' soldiers in the person of Sister Georgia Peebles, the wife of Brother Anderson Peebles. Sister Peebles, at the time of her death, was the chairman of the church. She has lost a faithful chairman, the church a useful member. But in the midst of our weeping we rejoice to know that our loss is heaven's gain TENNESSEE REFORMATORY SCHOOL Another group of boys were sent recently to Herbert Domain to help build roads. They left in high spirits having been promised liberty after a designated time. Miss Edmundson has severed her connection with the school for a while. Mr. Mack Buford 'having come to the city to be present at the funeral and burial of Mr. Granvel Walker of Marion, Ark. Mr. Walker was in the woods clearing land and on failing to return a search was made. He was found dead underneath a tree on which he had been cutting. He was the son of the late Mrs. Laura Gantt of West End and is survived by a brother, John Gantt, of Arkansas, and sister, John Walker, of West End, also a wife of Arkansas. The remains were laid to rest in the family plot at Mr. Ararat. Mrs. Gantt accompanied her husband. She is a niece of the Buford brothers and before her marriage to Mr. Gantt was Miss Julia Martin of Pulaski. Miss Dickerson and Mrs. Buford were in the city last week. Mrs. Buford attending the funeral of Miss Sympathy. The family has our deepest sympathy. Mrs. Bob Sneed, sister of Mr. Jro. Peyton, was called from Chicago on account of the death Saturday night of Mr. Sneed. She left Mr. Sneed complaining, but thought of nothing serious happening and was greatly shocked on receiving the message of his death. Mrs Sneed has children and relatives in Chicago and had anticipated spending some time with them. Oh, how these sudden callings of death arouse one to serious concern. Mrs Sneed will look after affairs for his sister. Mrs. Peyton attended the burial, Mr. Walter Peyton is a caller here. There seems to be an attraction here for him. Mrs. M. E Davis of Tuskegee and daughter are expected as guests of Mrs. Buford this week. Several parents from Memphis, Hendersonville and other points visited her Sunday. There are about the same. Mr. Peyton breaks the monotony occasionally by having a few friends and the Asylum band with us. Mrs. Peyton is taking vacation and spending some time with the family of Rev. Hynes. Miss Edmondson spent Sunday with us. CARD OF THANKS.

FINDS LEE COUNTY NEGRO FARMERS READY FOR BIG HARVEST Tuskegee Institute, Ala., August 24, 1917. "To visit and inspect county colored schools and to encourage and urge the Negro farmers to harvest. closely and to store away their crops, a party of men from Tuskegee Institute toured a large part of Lee County Wednesday, August 22. The party was under the direction of U. S. District Agent, T. M. Campbell. Those accompanying him on the trip were Warren Hunt, Jr., the Director of the Institute; Major J. B. Ramsey, Commandant; Clement Richardson, Assistant Director of the Academic Department, and C. M. Battey, Photographer. The party was plotted by C. D. Meneefe, U. S. Demonstration Agent of Lee County. The committee was amazed at the number of prosperous Negro farmers in Lee County—Negroes owning large acres, plenty of stock and flourishing gardens. Incidentally, as was frequently pointed out by the Treasurer and Acting Principal Warren Logan, "large acreage seems in every case to indicate large and healthy families." Men were running farms which ranged from 80 to 450 acres, they being paid for and free of debt. Every where corn was the predominating crop, ranging from thirty to fifty acres, with two and three good ears to the stalk. Cotton was flourishing APPEAL TO Colored Voters Colored Man has only one legitimate and effective weapon of defense—that is his ballot. Whenever he has an opportunity to use that it should be done so as to aid him and his people in securing better treatment and obtaining a greater measure of justice. Such an opportunity is afforded by the coming city Campaign. The Colored Voters will have chance to cast their ballot for a candidate for Commissioner of Streets, Sewers and Sidewalks, who has always been friendly disposed to our people, always gave them a square deal and sympathized and helped them whenever he could. He has been a Contractor for quite thirty years, during which time he has employed Negro Labor almost exclusively. During all Winter when some of his employees and other Colored people were without food, raiment or shelter, he furnished them the necessities of life out of his own pocket. Certain Colored Men in this city lost their property, their homes, which he redeemed for them without charging them one cent for any of his troubles. Whenever his employees have been arrested, he has come forward, paid their fines, liberated them and given them another chance.

Velvet beans were rioting; stock were in barrels, without exaggeration, the Negro farmers of Lee County are raising what they eat. The committee had dinner at the home of a farmer named Benford, who lives some seven or eight miles out of Opelika. On the table were seven varieties of home-grown vegetables, cooked with meat when necessary, from the smoke house. The biscuit and corn bread were both made from the grain grown by Farmer Genford. Milk and butter came from their own cows. Out back, apple trees were heavy with ripening fruit in an orchard which paid $100 a year from sale of fruits. The garden carried colds, cabbage, tomatoes, marmalade, carrots, sweet beans, water beans, peas and okra. He carried thirty acres of corn, fifteen acres of cotton, velvet beans and abundance. Farmer Benford owns 250 acres of land, about 100 of which are under cultivation. At the home of Farmer Somers, the committee found again a large acreage of corn and foodstuffs, plenty of hogs, a run of beef cattle, and dairy cows. The farmer sells regularly to the markets of Opelika. He, like all the farmers, had a large run of poultry. Farmer Dowdell was one of the big finds. He had thirty head of hogs, twelve cows, fifty bushels of wheat in his granary which fell short thirty bushels this year, he having raised eight bushels last year; meat in his smoke house, a yard full of poultry. In his fields, which were luxurious with corn and velvet beans, which flourished in cotton, employing the "Mangum" method of terracing, aided by Demonstrator Menafee. This method consists in making wide, low terraces, depending on the slope, and plowing on the terrace. Thus his fields had held their fertilizer, their water, and bore no signs of washouts. He owned some 380 acres, and set a table from his own produce. Farmer Murphy had 17 turkeys on the roost pole, three middlings and one ham still hanging from last year's killing; five hogs in the pasture, and an orchard weighted down with pears and apples. He owns 120 acres, was wronging a farmer in some to toil. His wife was collecting her sacks of dried apples from the front porch as the committee left their home. The Farm Woman. Just out of Salem, Ala., is a Negro woman farmer. Crowder by name. She was the most aggressive "man" of them all. A charcoal pit barred the road of her house. Back of there was a pile of new shingles, which she was piling for with the charcoal that she sold in town. She owns six cows, poulches, four hogs, corn, the best of which carried three and four ears to the stalk; sugar-cane, velvet benas, soy beans, tomatoes so abundant as to be fed to the hogs. Between two and three bushels were spread out in her back hall. She plowed "like the rest" when she could find no one to plow for her. She owned 120 acres. The Lee County folks have also a system of marketing. There are certain days when they send to the market poultry, butter, milk, eggs thus keeping themselves in pocket money, and knowing how to regulate the use of their produce at home. All farmers reported owing less on their crop this year than ever before; all were using intensive methods; all were little bothered with the war the next President, the migration question, or the high cost of living.

THEATRICALS IN WASHINGTON The Mime Word as Viewed by R. W. Thompson. "THE BAR SINISTER" PROVES A DISAPPOINTMENT. The much-heralded "The Bar Stinger," which was shown at the Howard all last week at advanced prices, proved to be a disappointment. It failed to strike the high notes the public was led to believe it would sound relative to the "rave problem." We expected a photo-dramma that would be so wholesome and true to the character, equally fraternity" that all memories of "The Birth of a Nation" would vanish into thin air. What did we get? A film that essayed to be fair to all races, as the preface claimed, but simply "thundered in the index." The author evidently started out with the intention of launching a propaganda against race prejudice, color lines and social or spiritual injustice—but got frightened at his own boldness before he reached the climax of the second reel. The keynote struck for "spiritual equality" in an early scene was the only utterance that brought a ripple of applause and even the suggestion of racial brotherhood had for its exponent an humble and obsequious servitor in a masters family. While deying any "spiritual differences" between the races, the author held firmly to his notion of "social barriers," and made it plain that "thus far and no farther" shall the brotherhood man be permitted to go. Throughout the eight reels the age gradually narrowed down from a plaititudinous preachment that gave an unrealized promise of hope for racial equality to the hackneyed fabric of Caucasian supremacy and African nonentity. Not once was there presented a character typical of the intelligent, progressive, dignified and self-respecting colored American who might have been eligible to the hand of the pseudo-Negro girl and a fair match for the high-toned southern gentleman who made love to her, in ignorance of her status. The one dark-hued character that was the High-class Motion Picture Production Every Day Don't Miss It NEXT Friday AND Saturday Charlie Chaplin 5C In His Latest Side Splitting Comedy "The DISHONOR SYSTEM" soul of honor had to be given an admixture of Indian, Caucasian and Negro to balance things up. He was shown as "knowing his place" when the girl in babyhood from white parents and reared as her own child—a "Negress" turned out to be pure Caucasian. He had to die, as did also the slave, who turning worm-like up on a cruel master, struck him down and perished in a tree, to which he had been pursued by blood-hounds, in a vain attempt to escape. In short, the venal colored preacher was grossly overdrawn. The colored woman, "Lindy," was unnecessarily painted as a voodoo worker and a marplot. The heroic son of a rich planter was shown as an intolerant believer in Caucasian absolutism and the author lost a big opportunity in refusing to allow him to see any virtue in the so-called negress "Belle," until she was revealed as a white girl. He could have loved her for her goodness and womanly culture—qualities that know no color line. Throughout the eight acts there is altogether too frequent a use of the offensive term "nigger," "darkey," or the impurious inferiorities of Negro degradation and repression. Edgar Lewis in "The Bar Shister" sets out some character studies, but [Picture of a man in a suit with a mustache]. handles them poorly. Had he the courage of evident convictions, and the soul of the true artist he could have made of the material at hand a really great story. He missed his mark to satisfy a tradition. These who thought "The Bar Sinister" would give us the "race play" long looked for are chagrined and disappointed. It is the same old rag baby, dressed in a silken gown. * * * * "ALL BETS OFF" BETWEEN THEATRICAL MAGNETS. Unless the situation has changed overnight, "all bets are off" between the S. H. Dudley Theatrical Enterprise and the Howard management. According to the story of Miss Desdemona Barnett, local manager for Mr. Dudley's booking concern, the Howard management contracted for three acts of vaudeville, as is their wont when not playing road attractions. Last Friday, too late to place the acts elsewhere, it is stated that Manager Thomas suddenly canceled the vaudeville, arguing that "The Bar Sinister," engaged for the current week, cost too much to admit of his using vaudeville in addition, although the price of admission to 12 and 25 cents. The actors were thus thrown out of work and the Dudley management felt that it had been slighted in not having its contracts respected. Mr. Dudley, somewhere in New York, wired in response to Miss Barnett's statement o the matter, to cease booking acts for the Howard, if this "fast and loose" policy is to be pursued. In consequence, Manager Thomas is booking independently this week, and is using three acts from the "Smarter Set" Company which is rehearsing here. It is stated that if no compromise with the Dudley people is reached, manager Thomas will continue to do his own booking directly. It is also stated that the Dudley circuit, comprising five or six stands in Washington and a score in Virginia, will not use acts that book into the Howard. This is a situation that both the friends of Managers Thomas and Dudley deplore. It is hoped that are these lines appear in print the dove of peace will have perched itself upon the Howard and Mid-City towers and that the bets will again be on between the belligerent houses. The dear public wants the theaters to thrive and it wants contracts with the artists duly respected by all concerned. WHERE DUDLEY CIRCUIT TWINKLERS ARE TWINKLING IN WASHINGTON. The Dudley circuit twinklers are twinkling at the various stands in Washington week of August 20-25: Mid-City, Harry Brown, cartoonist, and Mrs. Billy Kersans. Blue Mouse, Nit and Tuck. Dudley's U.

Miss Daisy Martin, looking finer than veer, is here, rehearsing with "The Smarter Set." with which she is leading lady this season. She is a "box-office attraction." Miss Martin is putting on a clever act this week at the Howard. By the way, Miss Martin is now "Mrs. Ashton Jones," and the husband is a member of "The Smarter Set." Congratulations all around! AVONDALE Mrs. Mary B. Thomas and little son, J. W. of Hot Springs, Ark., who have been here several weeks visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Jones, was called home S. day by telegram, stating that her husband, Mr. J. W.

Swifts vs Nationals Take Greenwood Car SPORTING NEWS Come out Sunday and see the Swifts trim the Nationals. * * * This is to Mr. Wm. Miller. Hello Mr. Miller, how are you feeling, said Matthew, come in and cheer up and get in the game, don't cry so hard, we are with you all, said the Nationals. Manager Hurt is trying his boys out. Mr. Street is back in form again. Mr. Ware of the Sox sure is high minded, can't throw a ball to second base. Mr. Miller said he is going to move second base back into center field. Matthews, better known as manny, is sure hitting the old pill, he says he is going to make it hard on the star heavens of the Capital City League. The Swifts Notes. The B. H. Swift played the champion Black Sox to a stand still Monday and as the game was called on account of darkness the game will have to go back to the fifth inning where the score was tied. Hall is some hillman and it does not yet appear what he shall be , but we know when he faces the Nationals Sunday they will not like him for he is a wonder. He is a wonder and you may see him if you will come out to Greenwood. * * * At Greenwood Park. The Maroons beat those champion Sox Sunday at Greenwood park for the first time this season. They batted Mormon and Stratton to all corners of the old ball yard. Score R H E B. S. 3 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 6 1 0 8 M. 0 0 4 3 0 2 0 2 1 1 4 3 Batteries: Mormon, Stratton, Ware; Denton and Green. At Athletic Park Score R H E B. S. 1 0 0 1 4 0 * 6 8 2 B. H. S. 0 1 0 1 0 * 2 4 1 Batteries: Hall and Johnson, Morman and Ware. * * * * Batteries for the Sox in Monday's game will be Venson and Ware. Venson is the Sox veteran pitcher, he is one of the best pitchers in the League, he has been out of the on defense in account of his arm but he will give his best service to beat those Nationals. * * * * James, the Sox center fielder has made more of his hits drive in runs than any other player in the League, he sure is some pinch hitter. * * * * Miller and Amous, the Sox great catchers will be on the line Monday with theirs, come on old boy, lets go that is the time all the way, he can't get them over, that looks like some more silver cups for the Sox. * * * * H. Morman the Sox big pitcher has lost but one game this season, he has won seven out of eight starts, he is doing fine for a young pitcher. Captain Ware the Sox star catcher says he will be on the receiving end of big Venson's fast ones and says he is going to be in the best of temper and if not will put some ice on his head if it gets hot. * * * * Carpenter the Sox classy third baseman is the Ty Cobb of the League. In two games Carpenter has been at bat seven times, has got five hits, stole six bases, scored five runs. Can any one beat that? Some class, go on Carpenter. Black Sox Notes Manager Stratton, better known as the cool kind captain, is one of the greatest all round colored base ball players that Nashville has ever put on the base ball map, will not be with the Sox next season as he is going to be in faster company. He is playing great ball a present day he is going to beat those Nationals next Monday, good and plenty. * * * McGavock is one of the greatest fielders in the League, he is a good judge of fly balls, has a fine throwing arm, is a good hitter and fast on bases. * * * King is better as home run king of the Sox, is a fine player, he is one of the cleanest ball players in the League, he is a gentleman on and off the base ball field and is playing a great game. The champion Black Sox is closely pressed by the Nationals, they are tied for first place in the race in the Capital City League, the race is as close as the one in the Southern League and the colored base ball fans on Nashville have been given first class base ball by the teams in the League this season. * * * The series between the Sox and the Nationals on Labor Day at Athletic Park will be of great value to either team, as the series will settle out of the race and see these two great teams play. This series will be as great as the world series to the followers of the Capital City League.
