during the meetings would be miss

token of friendship and apprecia-
tion from himself and the other
members OF the board, presented to
the retiring director beautiful gold

its case. The time piece is an ele-
CANT one and the board could not

gratitude. IL was some minutes be-
fore he could control his emotions,
but after making two attempts to In
some way express HIS appreciation
he said the present came to him as
a great surprise; that the members
OF the board have his kindest re-
CARDS, and that he thanked them
and appreciated their gift more than
he could tell, but he appreciated the
kindly hearts and warm friendship
that prompted the gift beyond all
price. When Mr. Lee sat down the
board cheered him and II could be
noticed that the kind-hearted school
official's eyes we're swimming In
tears.
The meeting then took up It's reg

NEGROES SHOULD PAY THEIR
POLL TAXES.
Baptist Preacher Advocates Regis
tration of All Negro Voters.

On Sunday morning at II o'clock
one of the leading Baptist preachers
Of the city spoke on Good Citizen
ship" He took the Biblical stand
that as a people, 1t is the duty of the
Negro especially the men. to qualify
as citizens and voters. He pointed
to a passage Of Scripture showing
that Christ taught it, when he sent
the disciples to catch fish and told
them that in the fish's mouth there
would be found money and with this
his taxes were to be paid. DR.. G. H.
Clark, of Mt. Olive Church, preached
the sermon and scored the indolent.
disinterested Negroes of Nashville
who, by their failure to register, were
rot only lowering the citizenship Of
the race but were destroying their
rower and throwing away the priv
lege of suffrage accorded them un-
der the Constitution. The able d.
vine said that a man who would not
pay his poll tax and register was
hardly worthy of citizenship and was
certainly incapable of being a leader
and unfit to be husband. He went
further than this. He declared that
the young women of the race, If
necessary, should discriminate against
the young men who are not far-see-
ing and manly enough to qualify by
registering and paying their poll tax.
A splendid audience listened to this
and the fact that the city is planning
to have supplementary registration
will afford an opportunity to the
young men, who failed to register, to
fall in line. It is estimated that not
more than so per cent of the Negroes
in the city registered at the last reg
istration.

the Howard Congregational Church
is and when the old building now
used partially as a barn that Is To-
Gated on the spur track of the Ten
nessee Central Railroad on Hamil-
ton street, was used as one of the
city schools. To the child who sits
in the magnificent buildings of
Belleview, Napier, and Hadley to-
day, it would sound more like a
fairy tale than reality to show them
where their parents once attended
school. Encouraging strides these
are, and as the Negroes of Nash
vile continue to send their children
to fill up the present quarters, other
provisions must be made and will
be made to meet the demands and
their accommodations, Seven new
teachers have been added to the list,
some of them taking the places of
teachers who have resigned and
gone to follow, other professions as
we'll as some that have gone out by
marriage.

PUBLISHING BOARD HOLDS
MEETING,

The monthly meeting of the Bap-
tist Publishing Board was held in
the Office of Secretary Boyd at 1880
Tuesday morning. Almost the en-
tire session of the Board was taken
up with conventional matters accor-
ding to Chairman G. H. Clark's state
ment as this was the meeting in
which the report for the fiscal year
was considered and discussed. 1t is
learned from Rev. G. B. Taylor, a
member of the board, that one of the
biggest reports ever submitted to a

POLITICAL CHANGES AT CUSTOM
HOUSE.

From present indications 1t looks
as though the Republican pie counter
is being given a serious shake and that
there is going to be some dissatisfac-
ton and some old-time scrambling
over positions" said a prominent mem
Der of the G.. o. P. last week when
the newspapers had so much to say
about the demotion of Deputy w. w.
Taylor to the position of storekeep-
er and his (Taylor's) subsequent res
ignation. All of this was brought
about by Collector r. S. Sharpe. of
the Internal Revenue, appointing
three new deputy collectors OF inter
nal revenue as follows: Charles
Clark, Deputy Collector in the office
to succeed w. w. Taylor as collector
of the middle district of Tennessee;
Morris d. Cohen to succeed Clark.
Cohen was promoted from the posi-
ton of storekeeper and gauger to that
of collector. The two additional ap-
Dointments as deputy collectors for
the state at large were Levi Trew-
hit, of Cleveland, Tenn, who is the
editor Of the Cleveland Herald, and
George j. Connor, of Knoxville. Elk
plantations do not seem to allay the
disturbance in political affairs. The
RESIGNATION of Mr.. Taylor, which Is
reported, now puts matters in the
worst shape.
