r t ! THE ATLANTA UKOHUlAN AInH XfcAVb. SAILKDAV, APK1L 19, 1913. 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. Geraldine Farrar and Martin and Scotti all have sung there while on tlieii Atlanta opera tour. But Caru so is different. \ blue moon he ever Metropolitan.

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 they frightened out of their compa triots' pockets In dollar seats in the topmost gallery of the* Metropolitan, where they could lean over the rail and shout themselves hoarse when tiie only Caruso entered. It will bring back bitter memories to some of these. Baptists Certain of Victory in Contest Workers Declare They Will Defeat Christian Church by 10,000 Points in Race. I Workers for the First Christian Churoh in the Hible school contest between the Christian Church and the Second Baptist Church to-day predicted they would win hy 10,000 points. The two churches are working to increase the attendance at their sclipols amotiK persons who do not attend any Bible school. The contest is to run only four more Sundays, and the Christian Church is now 5,000 points ahead. BELGIAN STRIKERS CLAIMING VICTORY Walkout Termed Political Upris ing—Leaders Say They Will 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 cial gas plants will Join the strikers. Newspapers were not issued here to day owing to the strike of the type setters. The suggestion of M. Hyman, Lib eral leader in the Chamber of Depu ties, that the strike be arbitrated wAs eagerly seized upon in’ a number of quarters to-day. Appointment of a special »*omrnls- sion to act between the Socialist strikers and the Government is urged. M. Vander Vlede, the Socialist strike leader, said: "This is not an economic movement hut a political uprising Tills is a national move ment and we will treat only with the Government. Electoral reforms must at least he guaranteed before we will give in.” 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.

Hour. 8 to 6-Phone M. 1708-Sundays S t *- 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.

I . “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.” Mr. Moore is bending every effort to make the Sociological Congress, | which will bring more than 1,000 del-!

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. Heirs to Fight for $76,000,000 Estate Kansan Interests San Berrrardino, Cal..
