COMMUNICATION.

To the Editor Of Globe:
I know of no other race in the world
that canEake as many u as the
Negro, when they favor the leader
ship or believe in the superiority of
the white man. The statement of Mr..
]. A. Jones sounds very we'll in words,
but is out of place in real life. There
are not a dozen white men in Nash
vile, who would agree with Mr.. Jones
statement
In this enlightened age they almost
ostracise the white man for teaching
in Negro institutions not from a pre-
judice standpoint, because southern
white people contribute largely to the
upbuilding of Negro institutions, but
because they know he has a Negroes
job. And if Mr.. Jones' statement be
true why are they asking us North,
and South, to build our own schools
and take u own places. They say
we must help ourselves. They are
getting tired of helping us.
Walden University stands to-day for
the want of buildings because the
white man is getting tired Of the Ne
groe's burdens. When 1t comes to
building schools again those good old
white men like Drs. Cravath, Merrill,
Eraden and others have played out
and it is time for the Negro to take
his own stand in the march Of civil
lization as others nave taken 1t.
Mr.. Jones says that Fisk University
is owned by the 'wnlte people people
and because of this fact a NEGRO pres
ident could not be placed at the head
I would like to ask Mr.. Jones il not
all over this country institutions
owned by white people yet Negroes
manage them. Phylander Smith Col
lege, Little Rock, Ark, is owned by
the Freedman's Aid Society, yet they
have a Negro president.
We hope the time will soon come
when Negroes will stop being imita
tors and be real.

THE MANIAC PLAYED AT MEHAR,
nv AUDITORIUM.

On Friday evening, 25th ult, Me-
harry Auditorium was the center Of
amusement for several hundred per-
sons, consisting Of students Of tie
several schools and colleges of the city
and cores of the colored citizens of
Nashville, who wendell their way
thither to see how much delight they
could be afforded by the fact drama
entitled 1.-THE Maniac" written by Mr..
W. P. Saunders, a member of the SEN
Tor medical class Of Meharry, and au-
thor of "The Adiuster," which made
such a hit in the city last Fail.
'Tis true that the title of a play
often indicates the degree Of its
grandeur, but in that case there was
no gauge by which to measure the
gap between the repelling - 'Man-
lac" and the first rank drama rendered
by those seven all-star performers.
Mrs. Alice Cheatham in the role OF
a brokers' wife, could not be imi-
tated, neither could an exclusive de-
scription nor adequate qualification
be attempted of the very excellent
manner in which she performed her
part. It seemed as THOUGH an imag'
mary realm would as greatly favor
her existence as our W beautiful
world. She is a great personqtor Of
character and can adapt herself with
unexcelled facility to a multitude Oh
conditions
Mr.. Ferdinand Bradford, who played
the part of the broker, acted in true
manner lending favor to the perform
ance, and rendering him the centra
figure of the play.

Der of the party-so great were hel

the part that fell to her, it seemed bu
an easy manifestation of her owl
pleasing and agreeable character.
1t was hardly necessary for Mr.. VIM
P. Saunders to perform, for the tri
butes paid the respective players are
also his own merit, but skill HI

so profoundly impressed the audienc,
that it will be long ere "The Maniac

MI. L. B. Scott, Jr., must have beef
born on the stage, else he could no
have been so perfect in the characte,
he portrayed.
MI. E. M. Wilkins would have gracet
a French court with his presence, s,
very punctilious was he in his mar
ners. He exhibited a true picture o
present day social and commercial re
lations.

The friends Of Mr.. Edward M. Black
mar in this city will be pleased, no
doubt, to learn that he was awarded
an Undergraduates Permanent Ii
cense in the recent State Medical
Board Examination held in May last.
Mr.. Blackman spent his summer in
Detroit, Michigan and only returned
to this city three weeks ago. He
wrote last week to find out the re-
suit of his examination when the Lii
cense was sent to him by the Secre.
tary with the explanation that his
whereabouts were not known and
hence the delay. Mr.. Blackman is a
member of the Senior Medical Class
at Meharry. There seems 10 have
been a Typographical error in the
publication Of the list OF successful
candidates and the name Blakemore
printed instead of Blackman.
