w. B. Brawley travelling salesman
for Nichols, Dean & Gregg, SAYS that
his firm is now located in it's beauti-
full new building on Eighth, Sibley and
Temperance streets in st. Paul. The
lot is 1S0x150 feet, the main building
occupying 1O0x1SO feet, is five stories
high and full basement The building
is of reinforced concrete and the arcni-
tect and contractor say it is the
strongest building in the world. The
building is fire proof, not'a timber of
any kind entering into it's construc-
ton. Fire proof doors enclose the
stairway and elevator shafts, so that
the stock on one floor could completely
burn without the fire extending to any
other floor. The first floor is used to
accommodate long bars and bundles
OF iron and steel, and here the floor
is eight inches thick and will sustain
any weight that can DO loaded upon
it. A hardwood floor laid on the con-
crete covers the first and second floors.
All the other floors are concrete. The
second floor is the hardware floor,
the third, fourth and fifth stories con-
tain the large stock of wagons, car
riageS and sled woodstock.

Zion, Pilgrim, Mount Olive, First,
Spruce Street, Stonewall Tor Fifteenth

day schools whose names could not be
learned at this time. The plan will
be to have all of the Baptist schools
meet at their respective churches i'm
mediately after IL o'clock Sunday,
June 8, and go to Greenwood Park,
where they will assemble under their
respective banners to take part in
special program arranged for the oc-
casion. There will be two prizes Of
fered in beautiful silk banners with
this wording: First Prize Children's
Day, 1907, from the National Baptist
Publishing Board, and Second
Prize Children's Day, 1907, from
the National Baptist Publish

DR.. Boyd that it is the custom of the
Publishing Board to give state ban
ners. These are given to the Sunday
school in the state that sends in the
largest donation for the Home Mis-
sion and Publishing Boards; there
fore three banners will possibly be
left in the state of Tennessee by the
new management of Nashville and its
Union Children's Day program. The
preparations as they are being made
will no doubt result in one of the
largest celebrations under religious
auspices ever witnessed in Nash

OLYMPIC PARK.

Last Sunday afternoon Globe re-
porter made a tour of inspection to
Olympic Park for the purpose Of as
pertaining the location, the improve
ments, sights and the general appear
ance. Upon reaching the park he
found that thousands of dollars worth
of improvements were being made A
beautiful administration building
stands on the side of the ground at
the spacious entrance. The main
thoroughfare leading into the park
has been so macadamized that it
offers an easy access to the grounds
for vehicles. There is a magnificent
gate with two large pillars on each
side and pretty arch overthe same
with the words Olympic Park" let
tered over it, These tasteful decora-
tons, with scores of incandescent
lights, make the scene all the more
imposing. The driveway from the
entrance circling the park, passing in
full view of the river, as the park
proper is on an elevation almost
equal to that of Quebec, overlooking
the city of Nashville. The dam and
the lock of the river are conspicuous
from the drive. The roadway mean
ders past the midway, the ball park,
and up to the club house, which over
looks the ball ground. Although not
completed on last Sunday, the indica-
lions pointed that everything would
be ready for the opening days. Hun
dreds of people were met on the road
coming from the park, where they
had been spending part of Sunday
The Globe man was met by two of the
managers and given a hearty wei
come, being assured that every pos
sible effort would be put forth to give
Nashville another high-class park.

DIR. FLAGG ON THE GLOBE.

The Rev, DR.. Flagg, to say the least,
is rather careless in handling the
truth, In stating at meeting in
Franklin last week that The Globe is
a Baptist paper, he gave utterance to
what is so far from the truth that we
are almost loath to believe that he, a
minister of the gospel, could willingly
be guilty of such an erroneous asser-
ton.
From the initial issue of The Globe
we have sought to impress upon all
the fact that The Globe is not a re-
ligious paper and most particularly
that it is not the organ or mouth-piece
of any denomination or organization.
This was our policy in our incipiency;
it is our policy now, and it will re-
main our policy to the end of the
chapter, the reverend gentleman to
the contrary notwithstanding. DR..
Flagg was talking through his hat.

AN INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.

Nashville is to have more than one
candidate for Mayor j. ]. Odil, a
democrat, announces that he will not
enter the primary of his party, but will
run for the Office independent of the
action of any party or set of men,
thereby insuring that there will be at
least two candidates for Mayor.
1t seems that Ross Handley's vic
tory over Higginbotham and Johns
victory over Cartwright have encour-
aged independence among the candi
dates. This is as it should be. There
is no need of a division along demo-
cratic and republican lines, following
the national tenets of each party, in
these municipal or county elections
Every man should vote for the per-
son he thinks best fitted for office.
This opportunity has been denied us
heretofore, but the split in the ranks
Of the unterrifed is more and more
giving us the right to express our SEN
timents.
Though one may not agree with Mr..
Odil in all the policies which he has
announced for his platform, his ap-
pearance as an independent candidate
is to be welcomed It will at least
give every voter the opportunity to
vote for what he considers the best
candidate or perhaps, the lesser OF
two evils.

Foraker is making it warm for
those Brownsville citizens who were
so positive few weeks ago that the
Negro soldiers shot up the town. 1t
appears that many of the witnesses
who could understand English on
that night can speak and under
stand nothing but Spanish now.
According to the Boston Guar
dian, Senator Foraker knows who in
stigated the shooting up of the town
and will prove it when the govern
ment is through introducing it's wit
nesses and, too, that the colored sol
diers are entirely innocent.

EBENEZER CHURCH IN NEW LIFE
UNDER REV. N. SMITH.

For some years Ebenezer Church,
Nashville, seemed to have gone to
sleep upon the one essential thing
the ingathering of souls, the unmis-
taxable sign or evidence of the real
growth of Christian church. When
Rev. Mr.. Smith was appointed to this
charge from the Tennessee Confer
ence, A. M. E. Church, by Bishop B.
F. Lee, A. NJ, d. d., last November, he
seemed not only to be able to take in
the situation, but to thoroughly under
stand it and to know the remedy.
Quietly and unassumingly he went
about his work in an humble way
without wisdom of words or mans
knowledge" as Paul would put it. but
in the demonstration and power of the
Spirit of God. Gently he moved along
in his work among his people preach
ing the gospel in his simple and hum
bic way, gathering up a loose thread
here and there, until he felt the time
was ripe for the work of Gods spirit
in revival power
Just little while before April g.
there came into his charge two mighty
men Of God who have proven to be
valiant in the Christian warfare
Bishop B. F. Lee, A. NJ, D. D., and
Rev. e. W. S. Hammond, d. d., Dean
Of Theology at Walden University
Nashville, Tenn. The powerful ser
mons Of these two men stirred to the
depth the entire community of Eben
ezer and long will they be remem
bered. After the visit of these dis
tinguished prelates the pastor, seeing
it was time to strike, announced tha
he would begin a series of gospel meet
ings and that Rev. VIM. Flagg, Jr.
pastor of Payne Chapel, East Nash
Vile, would be associated with him.
On Monday night, April Sth, the pas
tor, Rev. Mr. Flagg, and the Sexton o
the church, Brother Stephen Ewing
were on hand promptly at o'clock
but on account of the inclement wealth
or no congregation gathered How
ever, the faithful pastor, not to b.
Outdone, said it was beast to have
season of prayer before they left tn
church; so Rev. Flagg read and com
mented on Mark 11:24, illustrating hi
talk from his experience at Paris

true "revivals" are based upon ''faitl

The press dispatches state that a
mob in Georgia was fired into by Ne
gro after he had given permission to
the men to search his house for Grim
inal. We don't doubt in the least that
the man fired into the mob, and any
man who will not protect his home
and family is not worth killing but
the mobs asking permission to search
the house sounds like a newspaper
canard Some of these days one of
these lawless gangs will be glad to let
a Negro alone.

was Tor the church to decide as to the
number of converts it wanted.
After each had prayed, the faithful
pastor praying last, and, Oh, what a
pouring out of his hearts desire for
his people. That meeting adjourned
until God would give better weather.
On the following Monday night,
April 18th, the church came together
in prayer meeting, lead by Bro. VIM.
Hall, one of the stewards, assisted by
Bros. Stephen and Joseph Ewing.
On Tuesday night there were three
converts in the prayer meeting.
On Wednesday night the pastor and
Rev. Mr. Flagg came out and took
charge.
Monday night May 6, the series of
meetings at old Ebenezer came to an
end gloriously with the following re-
suits: Conversions at the church, A;
at the Tennessee Industrial School, 81,
giving total of rs.
Dr. e. w. S. Hammond gave gra-
ciously his help by his presence and
burning words of love in the work at
the school.
Rev. Mr.. Smith says that too much
can not be said of Prof. Jno. B. Pey-
ton, Superintendent of the Tennessee
Industrial School, The state certain
ly made no mistake in appointing Mr..
Rivington and he made none in Sc
lecting Prof. Peyton and his amiable
wife to their present positions at the
school.
Brother VIM. Lusk, the local preach
er, has been indeed faithful at the
school and to him belongs much of the
credit Of the very satisfying results.
There are sixty-seven ready for bap-
tism and accession to the church.
The white friends showed an inter-
est and assured the pastor of their
friendship and support for the future.
Rev. Mr.. Smith has the happy facul-
ty OF getting a hold upon black and
white in every community in which he
labors. There is not another man like
him in the whole Tennessee Confer
ence. When he takes charge of a
work that means an unqualified sue
cess from the beginning.
1t is simple justice to make mention
Of the evangelical power of Rev. VIM.
Flagg, Jr., in revival work. He is
simply the leader in the Tennessee
Conference in this line of work with
Rev. S. l.. Howard. He acts with the
pastor and leaves him. deeper in the
hearts of his people.
The following able divines were with
him from time to time during the
great meeting: Rev. Ellis, Allen,
Moore, Father Yancy, VIM Lusk, j..
H. Upshaw, Leith, Presiding Elder G..
l.. Jackson, South Nashville District,
and white brother by the name of
Henderson.
The teachers of the Public School
at Lusk Town showed marked inter-
est in the meeting and the pastor was
highly pleased with them.
So in every way there has come new
life into old Ebenezer A. M. E..
Church at Nashville under Rev. N
Smith.
