many a sympathetic chord: =:

old lady for a partner. She was a.
nice old lady, too, but she was 20
deaf that she couldn't hear a safe

but the gas fixtures. There were
three women at the table,% men be-

scarcity of men, 1 understood after

for my being there. One of the Wom-

addressed a few remarks to, my deaf
partner, but the words got stuck IN
the tube, for as far as I know an
answer has not yet been received.
Each one at the table took a hand
in the explaining and my partner

DOCK LINER CASE.

One night last week Mr.. Dock
Liner, the popular Cedar street bar
Der, had a misunderstanding with a
street car conductor that resulted in
his being arrested. The case is one
that has caused unusual comment.
Mr. Liner in his statement to Globe
representative gave his side of the
case as follows:
81 boarded the car and took seat
directly under the sign designating
the portion of the car to be occupied
by colored passengers. The car was
not crowded in the front part, though
several white men were standing in
the rear end. The parallel seat on
the opposite side was occupied by
three passengers which filled the
seat comfortably. The conductor or
dered me to move over on that seat
| refused because / was seated &C
cording to law. The conductor said
he would throw me off unless
obeyed. l told him he could mov1
me or put me off so long as he die
so in manly way. He said no he
would throw me off. I told him
would entertain him when he did
The conductor then found an Officer
and ordered me arrested. l did no
resist the officer, but he cursed ant
abused me freely. The statemen
that I refused to give a seat to ladies
is untrue. There were no ladiel
standing in the rear OF the car. Tn,

cussion and the return to the uss O

made and hand polished, filled, var
nished and shellaced. The floor is al |
so of hardwood and dressed in like
manner The vault is built of rein
forced cement and hard pressed brick
with double steel doors. The walls
are four feet thick. A time lock safe
is placed inside the vault. All the
books and ledgers are of the most
modern and up-to-date make, having
all the features the same as those of
the leading banking institutions in
the country. Arithmometers count
ing and adding machines, and every
appliance to enable banking house
to do a systematic business in rapid
time is in use in the new institution.
The idea of another bank for Ne
groes of Nashville was born in the
mind of Mr.. |. l.. Moore. He did not
however, have the banking notion at
first, but the real estate and trust bust
ness When he discussed the matter
with few intimate friends it was
decided that the bank would appeal
to the people most and would serve
them better. So the bank proposition
with the trust and real estate features
combined was decided upon. A can
vass was made and it was soon evil
dent that the field was ripe 1t only
required a little while to interest a
sufficient number of people to insure
success. The bank was organized and
chartered. The organizers were not
in hurry to start to doing business,
but set about to look out suitable
place to locate. This was no easy
thing to do Many things had to be
considered, and meeting after meeting
was held by the directors and the mat
ter was discussed thoroughly. Final
ly the building now occupied was
Settled upon. A deal was made with
Mr.. Gary, who was then occupying
the building. He was paid an
amount satisfactory to release the
building, which he readily consented
to do in order that the bank might
get opened up as early as possible.
The Peoples Saving Bank and
Trust Company enters the financial
field with the other fifty odd banks in
the country to help in putting the race
on a firm business foundation in tht
world. The real estate and trus
features offer to the Negroes opportu
mites they are much in need Of il
this community, and it is believed tina
it will stimulate them to greater en-
deavor in purchasing homes and EN-
barking in business.
The officers of the bank are all sui
stantial citizens Of Nashville. The
