son at his desk. The territory was
represented by o. A. Larrazolo as
special attorney for the prosecution
in the case of the territory versus
Benito Chaves and Raimundo Ron
quillo.
After the jury had finally been COM
pleted in the Chaves- -Ronquillo murd-
er case at a special session of court
last night and the trial was being pro-
ceeded with this morning, it was
brought to an abrupt halt by the sud
/ den illness of one Of the Jurors Car
| pio Valencia announced from the jury
| box that he was too sick to go on
| with the case and the court ordered
him examined by physician who re-
ported that the juror was totally un-
| fit to sit in the case
Dr.. David Knapp who examined the
sick juror found that the patients
temperature was 103 and his pulse
1876. Counsel for both sides consent
ed to having Mr. Valencia relieved
from jury duty under the circum-
stances and this afternoon when
court reconvened after the noon re-
cess the work of securing another
taleSman to fill the vacancy was be-
gun. Owing to the unexpected illness
of this juror and his dismissal it will
be necessary to re-empannel the jury
and re-examine the first witness plac-
ed on the stand.
Vicente Escudero was the first wit
ness called. He claimed to have been
present and witnessed the difficulty
which eliminated in the death of Ru-
| fus Tucker. whom the defendants are
charged with having murdered. He
had concluded his testimony and
Florentina Lobato was next placed
upon the stand. Itgwas while this
witness was being examined that Jur
or Valencia begged to be excused on
account of illness.
Henry Romero, who was recently
sentenced to a term of ninety-nine
years for murder committed in Rio
Arriba county, is said to be one Of the
principal witnesses for the prosecu-
ton. Attorney T. B. Catron who is
counsel for the defendants it is said,
will object to having Romero testify
on the ground that the latter is dis
qualified from giving evidence be-
cause of being a.convict.

appearance to the front. Large flags
unfurled their folds to the breeze from
every window. 1t is estimated that
fully 500 people saw the President
from the building and school grounds.
AS the President passed he heard the
cheering and looked in the direction
from which it came. At once, he rec
ognized that the cheering came from
school children, who joyously waved
600 flags above their heads, the boys
lifting their hats in the air. The
President Immediately arose and in
gallant manner returned the greet
ing with pleasant bows. This gave
every child a splendid opportunity to
see the Chief Magistrate of the ma
ton, who perhaps is now the fore
most man in the world. About 100
Fisk young men came over to witness
the passing of the President and his
company, and they made things live
ly with their songs and yells. Among
the other visitors were: Mrs. F. G.

The Pearl football team played a
beautiful game last Saturday against
the literary team of Walden Universe
ty. The Pearl boys, though defeated,
outplayed the Walden boys in the es-
timation of the spectators. The game
was won on fatal error of Judgment
by PEARLS fullback. The beautiful re-.
turn kick of the Walden boys at the
beginning of the second half was one
of the neatest and most scientifically
executed tricks of the season. The
Pearl boys played the forward pass to
a fine point. The treatment accorded
the team in selecting men of nearly
equal calibre was the best Pearl has
ever received and received the un-
stinted praise of the Faculty. Not a
score was made in the first half and it
was impossible to tell who would be
the winners until the last five minutes
of the game.
The Pearl boys have a hard game
before them for November 8, when

We refer to Fert Negley. Why not
ask Congress to make National Park
which viii include all the battle-felds
around and about Nashville? The bat
tie of Nashville was one of the most
decisive of the whole Civil War and
the deeds of the men who poured out
their life's blood for the right as they
saw 1t, should be commemorated here
as they have been on other battle
fields.
Aside from the historic interest at
tached to old Fort Negley it would
add UNNECESSARILY to the beauty of
Nashville if it were improved. This of
itself should demand that an effort be
made to have the Government take
charge of the battlefield. Congress
man Gaines should introduce meas
ure, along with the one for the future
of the Hermitage, for the marking and
improving of the battle-fields in the
vicinity of Nashville.

BISHOP POTTER'S DINNER.

The South shows supersensitive-
ness at times concerning the so-called
"insurmountable barrier the color
line and its application that is sim
ply ridiculous. 1t forgets that the
portion of America south of the Mason
and Dixon Line is very small part
of America and would try and force
it's ideas upon the whole world. A
case in point is that of Bishop Henry
Potter, of New York, who gave din
ner in honor of brother bishop, the
Rev. DR.. Ferguson, a Negro mission
airy of the Episcopal Church to Afri-
ca. The function occurred in Rich
mond, Va, and, being in Southern
town, has grated harshly on the easily
wounded feelings of this section.
The criticism of Bishop Potter is
really ludicrous and besides is full of
inconsistency. The distinguished prel-
ate has doubtless always arrogated
himself the right to invite to his table
whomsoeyer he might chose and be-
cause he happened to be in the South
is no reason why he should forfeit
this right. AS to whom he should have
as his guest is a question which he
himself should be the sole arbiter
But Bishop Potter was in the South
and should have respected Southern
sentiments even though he was in
what was for the time his own home"
say his critics. One could with equal
consistency say that Vardaman, Till
man and other Southern gentlemen,
when in the North, should respect
Northern sentiment and wine and dine
with Negroes. There is just as much
ground for and equally as much sense
in one contention as in the other.
Bishop Potter was not trying to please
the South, neither was he trying to Of
fend it, but was simply exercising
that inalienable right guaranteed to
every citizen to chose whom he wanted
to entertain.

DRAWING THE COLOR LINE.


The President of the United States
has been in our midst, made few
speeches and gone on his way de
lighted" that his journey brought him
through Middle Tennessee. He re
ceived a great reception, that is, it was
great for Nashville. In connection
with the reception given Mr.. Roose-
velt one feature of the parade has
been the subject of a deal of criti-
cism. 1t was the drawing of the color
line by the local post-ofice authorities
in the formation of the postmen for
the march through the streets. AS is
usual with parades in which the COL
ored people associate with the white,
the colored postmen were strung out
behind. The United States Govern
ment is supposed to know no color in
selecting its employees and the post
master or whoever is responsible was
guilty of breach of rules when such
distinctions were made. In forming
the carriers for the parade, seniority,
efficiency, or height should have been
taken into consideration and not a
mans color. We are certain that eff
ficiency, length of service or height
had nothing to do with placing the
colored carriers in the rear. The To-
cal postal authorities ought to see to
it that no invidious distinctions are
made in the governmental service. 1t
were better that the postmen be not
shown on dress parade than that men
old in the service with good records
to their credit, be placed at the tail
end of the line simply because of their
color 1t would seem that the spirit
of the Mckinley Club is invading the
Post Office.

While the Southern press is so

FORT NEGLEY AND THE HERMIT
AGE.

Roosevelt made one declaration that
has met with general approva! in these
environments. 1t was that the Her
mitage should be maintained, as is Mt
Vernon, at the expense of the general
government He further announced
that he would recommend such actions
in his forthcoming message to Con
gress. Such a recommendation will,
or it should, receive the unanimous
support of every Congressman from
the state for, as Roosevelt says, An
drew Jackson was one of the really
great men that has filled the Presi-
Dental office.
In connection with the proposed
making of public park supported by
the general government of the Hermit
age, it is interesting to note that one
of the most famous points about Nash
vile is never mentioned to visitors.

The Globe is informed that an effort
is on foot to revive the Local Business
League or organize another CONNER
cial organization that will bring the
colored business men of the city to-
gether from time to time. Though
we are not advised as to the details
we are in hearty sympathy with any
movement that will tend to bring the
business men of our race closer to,
gether. The good effects of CONNER
cial organizations has never been so
clearly demonstrated in this city as
it was by the reception rendered Roose-
welt by the white Board of Trade. An
active organization of the colored bust
ness men would do much good in the
community and, believing thus, the
Globe stands ready to offer it's aid in
securing the same.

When Roosevelt reached Chattanoo-

not make his speech. Evidently they

highest judicial authority of America.
