FEDEML PRISON
$2-a-Breath Tenor Will Appear
for Nothing Next Week.
Other Stars to Aid.
Sixteen Hwarthy Italians in the*
Federal Prison are counting the hours
to-day more impatiently than ever
they checked off the weeks which
make up their terms. Lupo the Wolf
end his fellow Black Handers are
humming under their breath as they
work. Guards moving to and fro
among them would recognize "La
Donna e Mobile" if they knew Verdi,
but they only know the atmosphere
is unusually musical to-day.
‘What's the’ matter with them
wopsT' one attendant inquired of an
other.
"Haven't you heard the news?" re
turned the other. "Caruso’s coming
out to sing for them next week.”
Arranged by Warden Moyer.
What do you think of that? The
1 vvo-dollar-a-breath tenor will sing at
the prison to the hundreds of con-
vi<*ts. It will be one day next week,
probably a day when he doesn’t up
pear at the Auditorium, and it was
arranged at the request of Warden
Moior, who wired Gatti-Casazza
abdtit it. The Impresario in turn
askFI Colonel W. L. Peel if the Mu
sic* Festival Association were willing,
and was promptly informed that At
lanta would be* more than pleased.
it will be the first time* Caruso ha>
sung in the prison, though several
othrr Metropolitan stars have lent
their voic es to cheer the convicts.

Scotti all have sung there while on

Will Revive Bitter Memories.
But it won't be the first glimpse of
CttPuso for many of the men behind
the walls. There are financiers who
have sat in the diamond horseshoe
and leaned over the white shoulders
of jewel* d ladles to hear the great
tenor pour out "Punchinello No More"
am! "Woman is Fickle." There are a
do;#n Italians who spent the coin

where they could lean over the rail
and shout themselves hoarse when

of these.

BELGIAN STRIKERS
CLAIMING VICTORY
Walkout Termed Political Upris

Treat Only With Government.
BRl’SHIOLH, April 19. Thf* lirwt
week of tin* manhood suffrage strike
came to an end to-day with tin* So
cialist leaders claiming victory with
in their grasp.
The strikers wore orderly except in
some parts of the coal regions near
Mons. and the police anti troops had
littk- to do.
Two thousand wood workers and
700 hat makers joined the strike here
to-day. On Tuesday the electrical
workers and the employees of artifi

M. Vander Vlede, the Socialist

THIEF REMOVES A WINDOW
AND ROBS A DRUG STORE
A calm and deliberate burglar dur
ing the* early hours this morning cut
the large plate glass out of the front
door of Taylor’s pharmacy, 189 West
Peachtree Street, laid it carefully to
one side, stepped through the open
ing and then proceeded, one hy one. to
riflA tin* three cash registers in the
place.
He closed the drawers of each of
the registers when he bad finished,
stepped out through the door and
vanished. He got about $20.

*- 4 » Whitehall St. Over Brown Allens
Such n Hcrubblng, brushing and
furbishing Atlanta, Georgia's fairest
child, is getting to-day!
One docs not need to bo told that it
is the annual "Ulean-up Day." The
scenes about the city arc sufficient
evidence.
Brooms that haVfe not seen service
in months have been brought forth
to frisk about in corners, closets and
storage rooms that have not been ex
plored in as long a time. ^
Rubbish piles, grown to considerable
proportions, have disappeared like
magic. Back alleys, by-streets and
area-ways cluttered with sticks,
stones, torn newspapers and other
refuse-, have been rendered spick and
span.
City Aids Grand Cleaning.
The big red wagons of the Depart
ment of Sanitation have been clatter
ing and rumbling to various and dis
tant parts of the city under the di
rections of Chief Inspector John Jent-
zen, who placed his department at
the command of the women of the
City Federation, who have recruited
the great army of city cleaners.
"Just tell the people to call up
the department as fast as they get
I heir yards and districts cleaned and
we will send one of our wagons,” was
the unqualified offer of Mr. Jentzen
to Mrs. Charles j. linden, president
of the Federation. And this offer ex
tends over into next week.
Many of tic* litter-strewn yards al
ready have been transformed into
models of neatness and others are in
the process. Splashing the white
wash impartially on themselves and
on the fences and buildings, numerous
youth/n have been charged with the
task that gave Tom .Sawyer immor
tality.
Lime Used Where Needed.
Garbage accumulations have been
removed by the wagons of the Sani
tary Department and lime—barrels of
it -has been sprinkled where it will do
tiie most good.
if James G. Woodward does not
awake to-morrow and find himself
the Mayor of "Bpotlega Town" it will
not be the fault Of the < 'it.ykFedera
tion of Women’s Clubs and the co
horts of school children it has
enlisted in the cause.
The children, with the 40.000 pledge
cards given to them, proceeded to im
press their parents and other house
holders Into tlie movement and to
day found men, women and children
in the work of ('leaning up. The
women, right in their element—clean
ing house for the city - were the mis
tresses of the situation and woe be
tide the man that dared diapute the
wisdom of their orders or do more
than venture a suggestion of his own.
Award Prizes Monday.
An account of the war against the
city's uncleanness will be taken Mon
day. In the headquarters of the
Chamber of Commerce, which has en
couraged the campaign hy generous
prizes, the cards distributed to the
school children will be counted. The
school obtaining the most pledges in
proportion to its attendance will get
a prize of $50. A separate award of
the same amount has been offered to
the schools for negro children.
The City Federation has offered a
prize of $I0 to the individual woman
obtaining the most pledges to clean
up
All of the schools worked hard for
the $50 prize, but some worked hard
er than other. Among those in the
latter class was the Boulevard School.
The boys of this school have been
trying for months to get some base
ball grounds. The authorities, to make
the lads appreciate t lie grounds when
they get them, have insisted that they
hear part of the expense. Therefore,
that $50 looks mighty good to them.

“The trouble with Atlanta people
is that they are so busy making
money they don’t stop to think If
the Sociological Congress can arouse
the people of a city or a State or a
section to the realization of their
duties, that alone will accomplish a
whole lot," said Wilmer Moore, Pres
ident of the Atlanta Chamber of
Commerce.
"One pleasing feature of the pro
gram for the convention is the atten
tion which is paid to proper sanita
tion, but there is so much good work
to be done at the congress it would
he academic to contend which feature
is the most vital.
Great Thiny for Atlanta.
“It is a great thing for the city
find State tg be brought face to face
at first hand with the problem” of
other communities.”

to make the Sociological Congress, |

■SHOD TO
WASHINGTON, April 19.—When
the House Democratic caucus resumed
work to-day it was with the expec
tation that consideration of the tariff
bill, including the income tax, would
be completed late to-day. The Ways j
and Means Committee will report the ,
bill to the House next week and actual j
debate will be begun in open sessions.
The committee has a number of
minor amendments prepared as
changes in the phraseology of the
income tax bill, but none of these
altered the practical operations of the
tax as framed by Representative Hull,
of Tennessee.
No signs of a contest over the ad
ministrative features of the tariff law
appeared. A roll call was expected,
however, on the last paragraph,
which provides that the bill shall take j
effect the day after the President
signs it.
Insurance officials continued to
bombard the committee and repre
sentatives with unfavorable comments
regarding the provisions of the law
affecting insurance companies. It i:s
claimed that the whole law is: unfair
to these companies, particularly to
mutual companies where the burdens
will be placed directly upon the backs
of policyholders.
DemocrtTts who contended that a
heavier income tax should be levied
on bachelors than on married men
have given up hope of accomplishing
any change in the caucus. Anti-bach
elor amendments will be offered on
the floor of the House, however.
