THE NEGRO DEPARTMENT OF
THE lNTERcHURCH COL
LEGE LOCATED.

Citizens of Northwest Nashville
will be delighted to learn that they
are to have another educational in
stitution in their midst. 1t has been
mentioned the Colored Department
of Interchurch College is to be To-
Gated in that portion of the city.
1t will be remembered that a great
howl was raised by few people liv-
ing in Capitol Square when the rumor
gained circulation that the Board of
Directors of Interchurch College pro-
posed to locate the Colored Depart
ment near the State Capitol, Protest
upon top of protest went before the
Board, and some went so far as to
almost threaten the institution If To-
Gated there No danger, however,
was entertained along that line by
any one; but as rumor had it that
it would not be a desirable one, the
committee had no cause to consider
the protest, but went on in their even
tenor of way to look out for place
more suitable.
1t has just leaked out that the site
finally settled upon by the Board is
one that is far superior to any space
in Capitol Square, viz. the Hoffman
Hall, located just west Of Living
ston Hal This site is on a high
elevation overlooking Centennial
Park, Vanderbilt University and West
Nashville generally, with a broad
scope of territory in view of the OBJ
server stretching out for miles tt
the northwest Several great insti
buttons come under observation il
this scope of territory. Among then
is the new State Normal buildings
whose structures can be seen in thu
west of the site selected for the In
terchurch College. The natura
scenery that stretches out before tn,
eye at this point will bring to the stu
dents at the institution Nature
beauty in abundance.
1t is understood that Presiden
Gates, of Fisk University, who is
member of the Board, has promise,
the cooperation of Fisk with the In
terchurch College. 1t has been learne
that a working agreement has bee
reached whereby spare space in tn
Theological Building win be utilize
) by the Interchurch College in the be
ginning, and as long as L. is desired
This will enable the Board to begi
operations at a very early date, an
it is expected that before the yea
1912 closes Nashville will have i
full operation, aside from her publ
schools, seven educational institl
tons of higher learning and techn
cal training.

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE existing
vacancy on the supreme court bench
the fifth that has occurred in the
present administration, probably will
be filled by the appointment of Sec

Disagreement on pirec. vote.

Washington.-The conferees of the
two houses of Congress on the joint
resolution providing for the election oil
senators by direct vote have decided
to report a disagreement. The report
will not be made until friends OF the
resolution feel sure of the presence in
the Senate of al its supporters.
The disagreement is over the Bris-
tow amendment retaining the super
vision of Congress over senatorial
election. and there will be a motion
in the Senate to recede from that pro-
vision. 1t is believed this motion
would carry as only majority vote
would be required, but there is no
no such assurance of the adoption of
the resolution after the elimination of
the Bristow amendment, as a two
thirds vote is necessary for its

New York.-The cold snap in the
Eastern section of the country, which
sent the mercury in many places to
lower figures than have prevailed for
years, was measurably broken when
the temperature rose TO somewhere
near the normal winter average.
The effects of the abnormal tenn
Ieratures were still felt, however, for
train blockades in upstate sections,
where snow accompanied the cold,
were only partially raised, while ice
barriers in harbors along the coast
made navigation difficult and in some
places impossible.
Morning temperature readings were
still at low points, below zero reports

reached, Buffalo 2, Portland, Maine,
6, and Providence, 2, while Canton, N.
Y, was the coolest spot in the coun-
try. with % below This city's low rec
ord was l below.
New York harbor was about as
nearly ice-bound as it ever gets. The
surface of the bays was thick with
heavy ice floes and navigation was
difficult.
Suffering in the poorer quarters OF
the city during the frigid weather was
intense. Two deaths from the cold
and many cases of collapse from ex-
posture were reported.
Seven persons were overcome by
gas and seventeen horses were
drowned as the result of the burst
ing of gas and water mains in an up
per West side street. Apartment
houses within a radius of a block were
evacuated. The police and others res
cued seven persons overcome in their
rooms from escaping gas.
