game of ball to decide the champion

favorable to the Greenwood Giants,
winning 5 to g. 1t was a well-played
game. Men on both sides were ag-
gressive but manly. A fair crowd
witnessed the contest and seemed to
enjoy it immensely. 1t was a good
game of hit and rum There was very
little of inside baseball played. Both
pitchers were strong at all times.
Only once did Martin of the N. G.
Stars go down and that was in the
sixth inning VIII enwith few hits and
about as many balls the Giants
pushed over four runs, enough to win
,-e game. Both teams made one run
in the first inning; but after that they
settled down and there was nothing
doing until the fatal sixth; thus max

FISK STUDENT GIVES WHITE MAN
SEVERE BEATING

On Tuesday night a crowded car
leaving the station was the scene Of
a lively tilt between q white man and
student of Fisk University. The
white man struck the student in the
face, breaking his glasses. No sooner
had he struck the student than he
found himself stretched across one of
the seats from a student uppeTcut.
From that time ON it was the stu
dents fight When the white man
struck the young student he broke his
glasses and cut his face. The blood
flowed freely, which the young man
had to stop often and wipe away. This
was the only time his fist or his foot
was not pressing hard against his
white friend No one took any part
in the fracas except the student and
the white man. One white passenger
was heard to remark that so long as
white people resided in that colored
community they should make up their
minds to behave.
1t seems that this white man had
taken seat in the rear Of the car
and when a colored student who was
a stranger here and not accustomed
to the rules took a seat by this white
man he became enraged and showed
him off the seat When he did so
the student took his part, with the
above result.

new FEATURE OF
MOSAIC TEMPLARS
ESTABLISH BURIAL DEPARTMENT
IN TENNESSEE.
Nashville Man Chosen as Secretary
Treasurer-Prof. W. S. Thompson
the Lucky Man-order Has
Headquarters in Little Rock
Very Strong Financially
To Start Campaign
in the State.

The Mosaic Templars of America
with headquarters at Little Rock
Ark, have just established new fea-
ture of the orders work in Tennes-
see in what is known as the Burial
Fund Department. It's object is to
furnish money to the Templars and
Chambers to pay for the burials Of
deceased members. The department
is to be supervised by a Board of
Management consisting of six mem
bers, two of whom shall be the state
grand master end the -seeretar y-treas-
urer. The secretary of this
department is Prof w. S. Thompson
of Nashville. The National Grand
Master, Mr.. VIM. Alexander, said that
he could not find any man in the
state that he would be as we'll salts
fed with in the establishment of his
department as Prof. Thompson.
This department. will collect one dol
lar from each member each year,
which will be paid in October, and
this one dollar will guarantee to each
Templar and Chamber fifty dollars to
be used for the burial of deceased
members. The money for the burial
is paid by the National Treasurer,
which guarantees that there will be
no delay in collecting this fund, as
the Mosaic Templars are known TO be
a very strong organization. The State
Examiners report shows that they
keep ON hand in actual cash between
forty and fifty thousand dollars al all
times.
The Order is not very strong in
Nashville as yet, but it is learned that
there are some local lodges eGtab-
lished here now and several ladies'
chambers 1t is also learned that the
State Grand Master and the National
Grand Maser plan to start a boosting
campaign in this state in the near
future. They say when the people
know what their order is they will not
hesitate to become members. Another
redeeming feature about this order
is that death claims will be paid with
in twenty-four hours after proof Of
death, and it is to be paid in full.
Those who are members Of the or
der in Nashville speak in the highest
terms of the same. Mr.. ]. e. bush,
of Little Rock, Ark, is the National
Grand Scribe of the Order and one of
the founders. Mr.. Bush is well known
in Nashville, Tenn. In other states,
articularly in Arkansas, Louisiana,
Mississippi, Kentucky and Missouri,
the order has a large following and
the National grand officers and the
State grand officers are determined
that the Order shall be known in Ten
nessee, and to that end it is learned
that a great campaign will soon be
launched.

|. O |. BAND.

Last Thursday night at the Union
carnival at Athletic Park the /. 0. l,
Band paid the carnival people visit
and gave them free concert. 1t was
a very pleasant surprise to every one
present and several were heard % say
that they did not know Nashville had
such a good band. To say l. o. l,
carries the people back twenty-five
and thirty years, but the present ag-
gregation is practically all new.
There are few of the old original I'm
maculate band members in the new
band, but most of them are new faces.
The concert they gave was such as
any audience would appreciate. The
band consisted of eighteen pieces,
and the music they produced was OF
the highest class. Nashville will be
proud of this band when they know of
its ability. The aggregation travels
extensively through the summer and
winters in Nashville, but it is believed
that when the people know the kind
of music this band can make the
band will be kept here the year round

BISHOP cHAPPELLE STANDS
FOR LAW.
Ina T. Bryant, in The Southern
Christian Recorder.

CuTlSJldu RCCOl uCl'
"Poor preachers and their
wives are suffering in this mis-
sion field of our church The
men in some parts of the Twelfhh
District have not gotten Fifty
Dollars this year;-having to roll
logs and do such work as they
can get to do, and then to keep
our church together they walk to
their charges and preach on the
Sabbath, = We should be
ashamed to ask these people for
money to stack up in bank, when
they are called upon to suffer
such as we would not do. The
rule is to do unto others as you
would have them do unto you"
Bishop Chappelle.
And that's just the sermon we have
been preaching since the General
Conference, only that the Bishop in
writing confined himself to the
Twelfth Episcopal District. Thank
God another Bishop has spoken out
against this mighty curse upon the
Church, of robbing the ministers
through assessments that must be
paid from their salaries already
shamefully small. Every District in
the South has hundreds Of just such
neglected and mistreated men as
Bishop Chappelle has referred to.
What's more, there is not an Episco-
pal District in the South that can
average one man in twenty receiving
a salary commensurate with the size
and standing of the work he is serv-
ing. The sad part is that in every
District is found a gang of bishop
"quillers," who make a practice Of
saying what they think the new
bishop would like to hear, instead Of
what they know to be true, and what
really should be said for the benefit
of all concerned Even in the face
of conditions such as Bishop Chap
pelle has described, they will report
everything lovely tell the Bishop
how I'VE must break the record" and
agree to anything, so long as they
themselves are taken care Of" And
this same gang, when facing the COM
plants and grumblings of the men,
will lay the entire blame to the
"heartlessness Of the bishop" who
isn't present then to protect himself.
have no more respect for the pre-
siding elder, who, getting his own
salary, seems not to care whether his
pastors are paid or not, than I have
for the bishop whose salary being Sc
cure, cares not rap whether the
presiding elder gets what's due him.
They are two of a kind whose physi-
can death would mean good for the
Church.
In Tennessee here, for instance,
where they are actually lynching the
Church with a $4,000 Educational as
sessment, with other General claims
equally as exhorbitant, the fixed sa-
larry of the presiding elder of the
largest district is hardly $500 per
year; and out Of that, travelling ex-
pences, ETC., are to be paid. And yet
this same presiding elder Gardner had
