Staff Capt. and Mrs- Trumble. formerly in charge of the Salvation Army indus trial work in New Orleans, have been appointed to the oversight of the Bir- ynfngham Industrial home on South Twen- ty-second street, and will take up their work at once Captain Gordon McCarty the former overseer at the local home las been transferred to New Orleans, where he will take up the work of Capt and Mrs. Tumble.
 Capt. and Mrs. Tumble are well fitted for the work they are to undertake in this city, having had experience for near ly 25 years in all lines of Salvation Army endeavor. Their work when in charge of the responsible field at New Orleans has been of the highest order, and their coming to Birmingham is hailed with much satisfaction, though the accomp- lishments of Captain McCarty in the local field have been more than satisfactory.
 The following communication from the local Industrial home will give some idea of the work that is being done
 There are seldom less than 25 men in the home who supplied with constant employment, which enables them to be self-supporting and keep their self-re- spect until they can secure more remun- erative employment. Since January 1 of the present year, 426s beds have been sup piled to such men, as well as nearly 13,000 meals, for which the men paid by doing S654 days work. This work has consisted of hauling, sorting and baling clothes and shoes donated by the good people of Birmingham. These figures do not in- clude the beds or meals given to the Wayfarer who seems worthy and is given little lift on his way, but does not do work in. return for the same. In addition to these figures, $1166 .25 has been paid the men in cash as grants for services rendered during that period A number of them have started small savings &C., counts, which they have to fan back on when leaving for permanent situation. The sum of $1146.69 cents was also paid to the merchants of Birmingham for food for these men during this period.
 we think the public of Birmingham should also know that we never turn away a man who tells straight story and is not intoxicated, so long as there Is a vacant bed. The army believes that needy men should always be given the benefit of the doubt and if he is un- worthy day or two will show him up in his true light.

and slaps him into Jail before the paste is
dry on the notice that Is stuck up on the
closed door.
Two American banks in the City of Mexico
have failed lately and two more or less
complete sets OF banking officers are in Jail
down there now. A few of the prisoners
have been admitted to bail but only after
having been imprisoned for quite some time.
Those who have not gained temporary lib
erty are enduring hardships that in a way
are destructive of life and health almost
as the convict swamp OF the south
There is as much argument about getting
bail in Mexico as there is in trying to OBJ
tain eventual liberty. The court holds nu-
merous sessions that take up several hours
each day for two or three weeks and listens
to the arguments on both sides as to
whether the culprt shall be bailed out or
not The decision, of course, rests entirely
with the Judge, and he never is easy to
convince. These proceedings are especially
slow, because they never taken down
in shorthand. IL the defendant or any wit
ness is to be examined the questions which
the lawyers propose asking them are written
out first and submitted to the Judge In a
day or two he decides what questions he
will allow and what he will not permit to
be asked.
When the person to be Intercepted Is
brought before the court all his answers to
the questions are recorded in longhand. Be
fore the session ends for the day the per-
son testifylng has to read over the record
of what he has been asked and has an
swered. Then he signs it; II there is an in
terpreter officiating in the case, he signs
1t also, and, last of all, the public notary
| fixes his seal and writes out formal dec
laration OF the circumstances, which he
signs. The whole thing is then tied to-
gether with red tape and attached to the
file Of papers that has begun to accumulate.
As all this is written in longhand; the stack
OF documents in an important and long
drawn case will weigh 1OO sometimes 200
pounds. They left in charge of the
clerk in the court, but the notary is, to a
great extent responsible for them. The
notary, by the way. is not the casual
official that he is in the United States lie
must have been admitted to the bar. and
must have taken a two-year course i'm the
College of NOtaries. After a case Is closed
the documents are filed away in a big
granite 'building-one of the largest and
handsomest Of the public edfices in the
City Of Mexico-whicn is devoted entirely to
the storage of notarial archives.
But while all this is going on the accused
person is in Jail. Being in Jail is no joke in

Its members are men and women OF

and every effort is made to keep the order

Those who are contemplating joining an

duty Of every man and women who has
dependents upon them-should look into
the merits of the Woodmen Circle. Every
inquiry into its standing and methods in
variably results in new memberships. From
a handful of members at its inception
twelve years ago, the order has grown to
be a powerful and influential factor in
national fraternal affairs, and one with
wi ich any man or woman may be proud
to join. Ey

An organization that has weathered the

and success is the Woodmen Circle, with

ternal insurance order that is favorably
known In every state in the union for its
system of simplicity, absolute integrity and
fidelity to its business and benevolent
principles.

The Woodmen Circle may be counted as

the City of Mexico. These American bank
officers and their associates who have been
arrested are confined in the great municipal
prison of Belem. Beem is Spanish for Beth
lehem and the prison was an orphan asy-
lum and school in the days of the viceroys.
1t is an ancient castle-ike structure Of gray
stone and concrete, three stories In height.
With it's Courtyards and all, together with
the new building of the criminal court con-
nected with it, 1t covers a space OF about
two New York City blocks. AS rule
there are about 5000 prisoners in Belem
year in and year out Nne-tenths OF
them are of the lowest class the bare
footed, blanketed peon, whose only charac-
teristic that distinguishes him from the
animal is that he walks erect and has the
power OF speech. These prisoners and the
place in which they are confined are in
describa bly, dirty and unsanitary. The pris-
oners themselves are herded in regiments
of a thousand In great halls at night, and
sleep on the stone pavement there. They
are so crowded many times that they have
to lie spoon fashion to make room for all
BY day they sit about the courtyards.
1t is among such as these that these
American bank people and their associates
men who were accustomed to live as lux
uriousy as any i'm the city OF Mexico-are
thrown. II they have enough money to pay
the fees they may occupy beds in one large
room that is called the "sala OF distin-
guished guests" In this hall are gathered
the highest class OF malefactors, who have
friends or money to enable them to escape
the horrors of the general prison. They
can send out for their meals and can sleel
on cots, but that is all the advantages they
have. The overpowerng reek OF the an
cient prison and the prisoners is as thick
in the "sala of distinguished guests as 1t
is elsewhere.
But even that is the height OF luxury
compared with what they have to undergo
during the first three days after ehey are
arrested. The moment a man who is ac-
cused of anything more than petty crime
is apprehended he is clapped into a cell and
is kept "lncommunlcado' for seventy-twc
hours He is not even given a hearing
until after this period is finished. II there
is anything that will make a man repent
or dive him insane this will,
The failures were not especially bad UI
any more criminal than some that have
occurred In New York City since the panic
but IL the accused Americans survive the
tortures of their Imprisonment and escape
the typhus and smallpox, that stalks for
ever in Belem. and finally are set free the
chances are they will take the first train
