the Institute. Mr. Scott will how
ever continue to serve Principal
Washington in the same capacity.
One of the most interesting features
of the school work which the North
ern guests had an opportunity of ob
serving was a novel kind of rhetori
cal exorcise held in the Chapel Thurs
day evening. Instead of the tradi
tional essays and recitations which
the announcement of rhetorical ex
ercises had led the guests to expect,
they found the stage of the Chapel
fitted up with steam and electrical
machinery and various kinds of ap
paratus used by the students in the
shop, in the dairy and in the cook
ing department. A portion nf the stage
had been fitted up as a dining-room
and kitchen with a kerosene oil
range, end in this setting a young
woman demonstrated tohe students
and guests of the school how to set
a table and how to cook and serve
a meal. The whole operation had
been cleverlv dramatized and was
carried out amidst the applause of
audience. The performance was es
pecially admired by the men of the
party. .
Another interesting feature of the
rhetorical exercises was a demonstra
tion of the method in which, a fetter
written by a student is collected by
the post office department, stamped,
put in the mail bags, carried to its
destination and delivered. This
demons! ration was given hy one of
the students who is employed in the
Government Institute Post Office.
What made this demonstration all the
more interesting was that after the
student had described in a very inter
esting manner and in the greatest
detail how the letter had neon writ
ten, coiilected, canceled, distributed,
put in the mail packet, carried to the
train and thence to its destination at
Clark University, Atlanta, Georgia,
the writer took the liberty of opening
the letter and reading Its contents.
Friday afternoon tho two par
ties of guests one from Chica
go and the other from New
York united and went by spe
cial train to Atlanta, where they were
the guests at dinner, Friday night,
February 23rd, of the Atlanta Cham
ber of Commerce. At that point the
two parties separated again, one go
ing North to Chicago and tho other
North end East to New York City.
The present meeting of the Board
was voted one of the most successful
ones in the history of the Institute.
Mrs. W. S. Ellington was slight

No Issue Between Dr. Griggs and Dr.

Widespread Dr. Gilbert
Writes Letter.
To the Editor of the Nashville Globe:
In an article appearing In your
journal of February 16th, under the
caption "Negro Baptists Must Go It
Alone," pertaining to the proposed
National Baptist Theological Semi
nary, among other things you say:
"The assertio n leaked out somehow
that, the present Secrtary of the Edu
cational Board, Rev. S. E. Griggs, was
going around misleading facts and
that the. Homo Mission Society, had
never promised the $15,000. .
and the utterance of the Educational
Secretary, Dr. Griggs, Is regarded
hy Dr. Morehouse as false and mis'
leading . Just what will be done
when the Educational Board meets
or whether Dr. Griggs will be re
called is not known in Nashville, as
few, If any, of the Baptists in au
thority will comment, even the editor
of their National organ is unwilling
to make any statement for publica
tion."
I beg to inform you and your read
ers that there is not the slightest
kind of an issue between Dr. More
house and myself, but the issue is
wholly between him and the Nation
al Baptist Convention.
The National Baptist Convention
claims that Dr. Morehouse did offer
the money in question, and the Con
vention, through its Education Board
instructed me to so inform the Bap
tists of the country. For two years
I have been obeying the command of
the Convention and have been mak
ing the assertion In season and out
of season. It has been nothing like
a secret. If the claim Is a false one
it is our National Convention's false
not mine. The entire Baptist brother
hood understands that.
: Instead of being recalled because
of our having made the assertion
nothing bu. praise has come on a!
sides because of our tireless efforts
to havo the Convention meet the con
ditions imposed. The denial that
the pledge was ever made, Instead
of decreasing my labors as Educa
tional Secretary, rather increases
tl.em. Our great National Baptist
Convention, be assured, will take no
backward step, and the only effect
will be an enlargement and broaden
ing of our plans.
Though the issue as to whether
the promise was ever made is not
between Dr. Morehouse and myself
(although in the current issue of our
National paper I take up the matter
with him) I append hereto portions
of a letter bearing on the matter
from the eminent Dr. M. W. Gilbert,
formerly a pastor in this city, now
the President of Selma University.
Very respectfully,
SUTTON E. GRIGGS.

On Trial Grand Jury. Indicts for Mur

Men Ordered History &f.
Case. .
Special to thfi Globe.
Decaturville, Tenn., Feb. 27. The
grand Jury yesterday returned in
dictments against George Sheltqn
and John Bailey, white, for the
murder of Ben Pettlgrew and his
two children, Fred and Pearl. ; There
are three indictments against each,
an dthe charge is murder in the first
degree. The parties were brought
out of jail and put in a-plea of not
guilty, and the court Bet the trial for
Thursday of this week .and ordered
a panel of 150 men.
The history of this case Is fresh
In the minds of the people through
out the state, as it was one of thtt
most diabolical murders ever heard
of. Public sentiment is strongly
against Bailey and Shelton, and Jit is,
believed that the men will be pun
ished to the full extent of the law.
Mr. Pettlgrew was a 'prominent
man in this community. He had
lived here all of his life and . was
highly respected by all. He was quiet,
unassuming and industrious, and it
was not thought that anyone in this
country would do him an injury. The
high standing of the old man Is the
strongest evidence that the murder
ous deed had been premeditated, and
that they killed the old man and his
children for the sole purpose of rob
bery.
The story advanced by one of the
defendants that Mr. Pettlgrew had
In years past mistreated his sister is
not generally believed, for those who
knew him best cannot be made to be'
Ueve that he would mistreat anyone,
and to say that he mistreated a child
is considered to be maliciously false.
This case is being watched closely
as it is not believed that the best
people of the country sanction such
deeds.

The latest move to come to light
in the march of progress among the

to organize a "Boys Corn Club" of

one of the wisest and best made to
