City Attorney J. F. Witter, through

meeting TO present a report on the
opinion of the supreme court in the

throw some light on the effect of the

REV. PURDY'S INDUSTRIAL
SCHOOL.

A sight that attracts the attention
of every passerby is the children
from the reform school instituted by
Rev. ]. Fl. Purdy. The children, who
in most cases are boys starting on
the downward road and have been
taken in by Rev. Purdy, are dressed
in becoming uniform, and march
through the streets keeping time to
the drums beat by other students.
They carry banners, some of which
bear such in scriptions as
HELP US TO BE GOOD.
Dr. Purdy is doing a noble work
and should have the encouragement
of every charitably inclined person in
the city. It has long been problem
or how to save the cIiminally in
clined youth since the state has nc
reformatory. DR., Purdy is doing
much to solve the problem. He has
the endorsement of such men as
Mayor Brown, eX-Mayor Williams
and hundreds of others.

Before a gathering containing be-
tween 1900 and 1900 fashionably at
tired spectators, the Hill-Page nup-
tials were celebrated Wednesday even
ing at the ST. Paul A. NJ E. Church.
Long before the hour set for the begin
ming of the ceremony every seat in
the large auditorium was taken, and
when the bridal party arrived it was
with difficulty that a space was cleared
for their entrance.
About half an hour before the ar
rival of the party a musical program
was begun. This consisted of three
vocal solos: 81 Love You So" by Mrs.
H. A. Cameron; Call Me Thine own"
by Miss Willie Nichols; and so Holy,
Sweet and Fair" by Mr.. James A.
Myers, of Fisk University.
All of these numbers were we'll rem
dered and found favor with the expect
ant auditors.
Shortly before the wedding party ar
rived, the members OF the Algonquin
Club not participating in the wedding
ceremony, marched into the church in
body TO do honor to the groom, who
had served them so long as their presi-
dent. Their appearance attracted con-
siderable notice
Shortly after six o'clock the we'd
ding party made it's appearance, 1t
presented magnificent sight as the
carriages rolled up to the church with
each driver attired in white and white
ribbons streaming from the whips.
The ceremony was begun almost inn
nediately following the arrival of the
bridal party by Miss Hazel Thompson
playing as the wedding march, the
Bridal chorus from Lohengrin
The wedding march moved down the
right aisle of the church, being led by
the ushers, Messrs. Arthur G. Price
and Eugene Price. These were fol
owed by the other ushers, Messrs
Ernest Carney and Randall Hardimon
The first bridal couple was Miss Clio
telle d. Chappelle, escorted by Mr.. d
Wesley Crutcher. Following these
came Miss Lillian D. Allen and Mr.
William Boyer The groom, Mr.. p. L
Page, was the next to enter, accompan
led by his best man, Mr.. ]. o. Battle

TENNESSEE BAPTlsTs HERE IN
JULY.
Program for the TWentY-first Ami
versary of the Missionary 6ap-
lists Of Tennessee Dis
&nihnkaA

lists OF enneSSee DIS
tributed.
Things are beginning to look rath-
er bright for the coming Tennessee
Missionary Baptist Educational Con-
vention, which convenes in its TWEEN
'ty-frst anniversary with the Spruce
Street Baptist Church in this city,
on Wednesday, July %. 1t is this
religious organization under whose
auspices Roger Williams University
is being run. All of the thirty-ive
organized Baptist churches in the
city of Nashville, with their pastors,
will be called upon to provide enter
tainment for the hundreds of dele
gates that will come to Nashville
from every state and crossroad in
the state of Tennessee. Aside from
the regular delegates, there will be Wis
itors from many parts of Tennessee
as well as fraternity delegates from
other states. There will be many of
national reputation in attendance,
and the fact that Nashville is looked
upon as Baptist headquarters will add
some Importance to the Tennessee
State meeting. The elaborate pro-
gram that has been prepared would
indicate a better, more important and
more largely attended session. The
officers of the state convention reside
in Nashville. The watchword from
now until the convention closes
among all of the Baptists will be
$4,000. Rev. VIM. Haynes, the pres
ident of the convention, has passed
this word down the line He proposes
to raise this amount and the whole
sum is to be turned into several
channels, as it is the purpose of the
president, who is also financial agent
for Roger Williams University, to lay
the cornerstone of $4,000 dormi-
ktory on the University grounds A
special appeal is being sent out ask
ing so churches to donate 5000
each, 100 churches to give $500
each, so individuals and 100 indiyid-
uals to donate $1,000 each. If this
plan is carried out the Convention
will raise the amount of money
agreed upon. Secretary Rev. e. M.
Lawrence, VINO is also OupeTluJeHu-
ent of Missions of the State, has sent
a circular letter and a program to all
the Baptist churches and Baptist
workers through the State. If they
succeed in raising this amount OF
money, they will build in the city of
Nashville on the present site of
Roger Williams University the most
magnificent school building Nash,
vile has ever had and this alone un-
der the auspices of the Negro Bap
lists of the state will adj enthusiasm
and inspiration hitherto unknown. II
is calculated to bestir the Negro OF
the state of Tennessee, IS this state
, has done practically nothing along
. educational lines. They have been
!, criticized by every state for their
, lethargy, but will no doubt redeem

Obituary.

Died near Edmund, S. c., Mr.. B. ].
Taylor, on the 18th day Of January,
1908, in the Gath year of his age.
He was kind and considerate in all
his dispositions, true and faithful in
his dealings with his fellowman. He
was member of the Baptist church
and spoke we'll of his church and peo-
pie. and we think was true to his
faith. I knew him in childhood as a
good boy and in manhood as a good
man.
When war broke out between the
States he went to his country's call
and connected himself with the goth
Reg, S. G. ", Capt. Roofs company,
which did noble work in the defense
of Charleston, 8. G. In '64 he was
transferred to the army of northern
Virginia, and there took part in some
of the greatest battles of the war. He
remained in service to the end, then
came home to live the quiet life he
did. We trust he has now gone home
to be with God forever. A. R. T.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has
proved catarrh to be constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
