STATEMENT DIRECT FROM MRS.
J. H. KELLY CONCERNING
IRON MOUNTAIN WRECK.

Mrs. ]. H. Kelly, Jr., who left Nash
vile for her home in Little Rock a
few days ago, gave the following
statement in letter concerning the
wreck:
my journey was very pleasant I'M
tin after some distance from Memphis.
We were due in Little Rock about
3 o'clock, and near that time the d.
rect heat from the sun caused all
persons, in the coach set apart for
colored people, to move to the left
side / was the last to move, and in
less than three minutes after / had
changed seats, the crash came. The
side of the coach from which we had
Just moved broke in with such force,
] thought every second was my last.
DR.. ]. T. Wilson, of Nashville, and
many others were on the train, but
one was unable to help the other.
When the crash came, it was so sud
den, and came with such violence,
that the entire right side of the
coach, from which we had Just moved,
was broken in, and my baby, Charles
Winfrey, was knocked to the floor
and almost completely covered up by
the debris. In my weak and fright.

pulled him out, with only a few slight
scratches ON his face, but frightened
almost to death, and l not much bet
ter. Help was summoned at once,
and the baby and myself we're carried
to the home Of friends, where profess
sional services were quickly rem
dered."
Up until last Sunday Mrs. Kelly and
the baby were doing as we'll as could
be expected, and it is thought she
will be able to sit up the latter part
of the week.

the mouth and nose. The largest of
these drops can be readily seen. A
large number of smaller droplets can
be found if mirrow or piece of glass

A CORRECTION.

Shelbyville, Tenn, June S, 1912.
Nashville Globe,
Nashville, Tenn.
In justice to DR.. A. P. Gray, Pre-
sling Elder of the Shelbyville Dis
trict, the loyal, true and tried mem
Der of Haley circuit, and to myself:
l feel called upon to ask the Globe
to do US the kindness to correct a
report of our quarterly conference
held recently. DR.. Gray was not hold
ing a quarter at Haley and Mullins
Chapel at the same time. This is a cir
cult composed of Haley and Mullins
Chapel The report said that Haley
was only fifty-eight members when the
truth is the latest revised roll shows
sixty-four and there has not been
a single decrease since that roll was
made. Mullins Chapel has not re-
vised her roll this year, but as pas,
tor of the church / am in a position
to give facts and figures; her mem
bership is one hundred and thirty
six, but the quarterly conference re
ported one hundred and twenty-five
because of the fact that the roll had
net been arranged this year. The re-
port gives the amounts raised at
each church. There was no such, and
again we were holding a quarterly
conference on a combine of work not
not a single part of the whole could
be taken separately. 1t was stated
that sixty-three dollars and seventy
seven cents was raised as total for
the circuit, when the truth is, the
total up to Sunday was seventy
three dollars and e;ghty-one cents.
According to the report DR. Gray
was holding his third quarter, when
the truth is the presiding elder was
the same was being fordEspshrdlu
holding the Haley conference, and
the same was being held for the
pastor and members of said church;
and the pastor opened and conducted
the class meeting, opened the quarter

June 6, commenting on the Republican
State ticket, among other things had

from the Fifth District"
DR.. Philips is the son of Bishop
Phillips of this city. He is a graduate
of Meharry Medical College and a
young man of much promise.
The st. Louis Republic of the same
date says:
1.-TWO Negroes, one an attorney and
the other a physician, yesterday fur
nished the first real excitement at
Republican State headquarters by fill
ing declarations of candidacy for Of
fee on the regular Repub, lean ticket.
Or. Charles Henry Phillips, Jr.,
the first to pay his fee and make
formal declaration, aspires to the
nomination for Congress in the 18th
