ING H0IIGE

Several days ago Mr.. r. ]. Sharp,
who has been recently appointed as
chief post-of1ce inspector, and who
will be located at Washington, D. c.,
made a visit, in company with Mr..
j. c. Napier, to the National Baptist
Publishing Board. Mr.. Sharp was at
once introduced to Secretary Boyd
and carried through every department
of that great and mammoth concern
They saw the busy workers making
everything in the printing line from a
postal-card to an encyclopedia. He
saw them at the skilled labor which
has hitherto been unknown among
Negroes. He was surprised and ex-
pressed himself as not having known
that there was such a concern in the
wor. d, Notwithstanding ne had been in
the Government service for num-
Der of years He stated to Globe re-
porter that he was pleased and would
recommend that many more of the
white citizens visit this plant and get
acquainted with what was being done
In letter sent to Mr.. H. A. Boyd,
Assistant Secretary of the institution
he states the following:
Nashville, Tenn, April 4, 49,.
"Mr. H. A. Boyd
'fDear Sir: cannot refrain from
expressing the pleasure / had in the
recent visit to your institution. Your
work for the last ten years has been
a great credit to your race. You and
your associates should be very proud
of the same. | was telling MIR. San
ders yesterday something of your
achievements and he is very DESTROYS
of visiting your plant and seeing for
himself the evidences of the great
stride which the colored race has
made during the last twenty years.

Gus and think it quite necessary that
our leading white citizens, regardless
of politics, should be made more ia
miliar with the great uplift movement
now taking place among the colored
race.

TRELL, OF MEMPHIS.

DR.. A. N. Kitrell, physician and
surgeon of recognized ability, deliv-
cred the Alumni address before u
large audience in Meharry Audito-
rium April Is, 1910.
DR.. Kitlerr discussed his subject
fully from beginning TO end. He
showed the name physician means
more than the name. To be a
physician you must be able to
make scientific research and meet
every disease upon a scientific basis.
DR.. KetrelIs success as a physician
and surgeon was inspiring to the
members of the association and the
one hundred graduates.

"FATE OF A DlsoBEDIENT SON."

This play by Mr.. George L. Harris,
will be given at st. Paul A. M. E.
Church Monday night, May 20. Inc
drama is based upon some expert
ences of the writer, which happened
more than ten years ago. His atten-
tention was called to a boy whose con-
duct was grieving his mother, father
and sister, causing them many anx-
ious hours and sleepless nights. From
these scenes he began the work on
this drama, and has spent much
time and energy in it, trying to bring
from it the lesson to treat mother and
father right.

DEATH OF mR. Ia. RosLEY.

DEATH or Mr.. J. 3. BoSLEY.
The death of Mr.. ]. B. Bosley
last Thursday after only short i'll
ness was quite a shock. He was
stricken with Naralysis and con-
tinued to fail until the peaceful end
came. The deceased was known
throughout the state, in fact, he en-
icyed a national reputation, as he had
been identified with the business and
political life of Negroes since the
early sixties. He enjoyed the conf
dence of both races as he had been
one of the leading Republicans in
Middle Tennessee for number Of
years, but for the past four or five
years had practically divorced him
self from politics and active business
life. The funeral services were he d
Thursday at the Howard Congrega-
tional Church, Twelfth avenue, North.
John b Bosley was born six miles
west of Nashville, but always made
Nashville his home. He was educa-
ted at Oberlin, Ohio, and was a class
mate, associate and friend of the late
Senator B. X. Bruce while there. A
large fortune was left him by hts
parents, but misplaced confidence in
his friends caused the greater part
of it to vanish before he reached the
age of sound discretion He was
naturally politician, and early in
life took an active part in the counsels
of the Republican party. He has
been number of times a delegate to
National Convention; has almost con-
tinually been member of the coun-
ty and state Republican organiza-
tions candidate for seat in the
House of Representatives candidate
for Sheriff of Davidson County;
served in Registry Department of
Post-Office; served in Internal Revenue
Service. He was twice married-first
to Miss Catherine Harding, who died
in the early seventies, leaving an
only daughter, Mrs. Minta B. Allen,
who now resides in Brooklyn, N. Y.
His second marriage was to Miss SUI
sic H. Williams, who survives him.
He was man of great force OF
character, having strong opinions and
convictions, which he never hesitated
or feared to express. He was highly
respected by all who knew him.
Mr.. Bosley was lover of horses
during all his life. He worked with
them and never allowed any one
to have a horse that surpassed his
in speed.
The saddest scene of the whole in
cident, and the most pathetic of all,
was the arrival of his daughter, Mrs.
Allen, who was in Paris, France. When
she received a cablegram that her
father had been stricken, she imme-
diately took ship for America-then
began the race against time, the fast
est boat plying between Cherbourg
and New York being taken. 1t was
thought that by the employment of
expert medical attention, that was
being given hourly, that life could be
sustained until she reached New
York, but it was ordained that death
should win The end came while
Mrs. Allen was in mid-ocean. When
she LANDED in New York Monday,
she was informed of the fact that her
father had passed to the great be
yond. The sad message was deliv-
cred by New York friends. She
reached here in time to view the last
sad rites of her father, who had been
her lone companion for years. The
floral designs and offerings were elab-
crate Interment was made in Green
wood Cemetery.
