of the seasons most notable produc
tons of the multiple reel variety, is
that of Life in Joliet Penitentiary,

drama of life enacted there.

they were offered to the public they
We're exhibited before all the convicts
at the prison and were approved by
them. The pictures are very complete
and show everything from the time
prisoner arrives until he is paroled.
The photography is of a high stand
ard, clear, and shows splendid detail.
1t is especially noticeable in the larger
scenes where it was necessary to OBJ
tain depth.
The opening of the picture shows
the exterior of the wOmens prison,
which was constructed in 1897. There
are thirty-one white and thirty-four
negro women incarcerated in this
building who are employed at sewing,

CITY SQUAD PLAYS
PRACTICE co HERE
Coach Wants Chance to
Work Men in Daylight for
Remaining Games.

Applicants for places on the Rich
mond independent football team are
coming in rapidly since the team has
played one game, and shown a determ-
nation to put Richmond on the foot
ball map.
No game has been booked definitely
for Sunday with an outside team, but
it is planned to bring team bearing
fairly good reputation to Richmond
to play practice game Sunday after
noon at Athletic park. A nominal ad-
mission fee will be charged.
The coach feels keenly the need of
more daylight practice, the team only
having had one afternoon so far, and
by using Sunday can put the team in
d good shape to finish the remainder Of
the schedule.
Fat MetZger and Frank Hale, with
Michaels, an old Muncie A. c. player;
May and Nicodemus, another star play
er. who has promised to come out,
will strengthen the team considerably.
A practice has been called for tonight
at o'clock.

MICHIGAN EXPECTS
TO WIN IN EAST

The most important game Of foot
ball scheduled for Saturday will be
played between Harvard and Michi-
gan in the Harvard Stadium. This will
be the first game between the two
schools for more than a quarter Of a
century and when conservative
Haughton and progressive Yost line
their teams up for the game, it should
be a good test as to which is the best
in football, the East or the West.
Brickley, the Harvard star, will be the
only regular out of the lineup for that
team, while Michigan will be shy a
couple of their best men, but Yost fig
ures on winning without them.

Two months ago there was considerable
complaint about the Birmingham zoo at
AvondaIe park In regard to sanitary con-

were not properly cared for.
Yesterday it was very different. The
cages had all been cleaned, whitewashcd

PRACTICALLY ALL
LIQUOR LICENSES
WILL Be RENEWED
In Old Birmingham "a Sa-
looms and II Hotels Ii
censed-COnditiOnsS Sat-
isfactory, Says Agee

That every retail and wholesale
liquor license of 1918. that is the last
period of that year, has been renewed
with one exception, was announced yes
terday by Walter c. Agee, chairman of
the Jefferson county excise commission.
The exception is the. Turn Verein as a
social club, which license was revoked
few weeks ago and which was not
granted for the year 1914
1t was stated by Mr.. Agee that the
amount paid in liquor licenses of all
kinds for the year will be $2S5 600 Of
which the city of Birmingham will re-
ceive So per cent. or s15O,Ooo net, This
money Will be paid into the city treas
ury just as soon as Judge Stiles of the
probate court has compiled the records
and issued the vouchers.
Chairman Agee said that the work
of renewing the licenses had been prac-
tically completed, and that only one
saloon license was in doubt That license
is for a negro saloon.
In the confines of what is known as
old Birmingham there has been licensed
81 saloons and 12 hotels. In the county
/.
saloors s. This does not include whole
sale houses or beer agencies, all Of
which must secure licenses from the
excise commission.
Chairman Agee said that the manner
in which a great majority of the sa-
looms had been conducted during the
past year was deeply gratifying to the
members of that board, who have the
task of handling that situation. He said
that while there had been from time
to time some little trouble. as a gen
eral thing the whole situation had
been clean and satisfactory. For the
new year he says that the indications
are good 1t is believed by the officials
that all men engaged in the sale OF
liquor win take particular pains 70
conduct their business along the proper
lines.
81 am convinced that during the past
two years it has been demonstrat ted
beyond a doubt that the regulated sa-
loon has been conducted along the most
satisfactory lines" said Mr.. Agee.
There has been an utter absence of
those conditions prevailing here in
years past which brought the saloon
into such bad repute. Under the excise
laws | believe the saloon has been
raised to greater respectability and
that the men engaged In that business
have proven their willingness to con-
duct their work properly. We have
been given very little trouble. OF course
some blind tigers have been operated,
but our bureau of investigation has
been of sufficient potency to curb them
in many ways. Taken as a whole the
situation has been satifactory and
proves that regulation is beyond a
doubt the best way to handle the liquor
traffic"

CONTRACTOR THINKS
OUTLOOK is BRIGHT
Larkin Returns From Atlanta After
Completing the Hurt
Building

Fritz Larkin. vice president and general
manager of the Realty Construction COM
pany. has returned from Atlanta, where
he has recently completed the construc-
ticn of the Hurt building. The work
handled by the Birmingham builder was
a surprise to the contractors of Atlanta
by reason of the records made in erecting
the skyscraper
Construction work during this year. 1
think, will be very brisk said Mr.. Lar
kli THE outlook is encouraging | must
say. In Birmingham it appears that the
work being completed now will be the
finish of office building work for, say, at
least this year. In other construction
lines however, l am sure that the outlook
is exceedingly bright For instance, /
am told that several apartment house
schemes are being carefully nurtured and
will, be announced WITHIN a short time II
everything goes well. The building of
residences is going ahead now very rap
idly, and l think the construction men
have a perfect right to feel that they will
not be left this year.
I'm Atlanta the construction of the JET
ferson County Bank building has created
. some discussion, but there has been d
great deal of talk In Atlanta of the News
paper club plans. The newspaper men OF
that city are watching the local workers
rather closely, and / nave no doubt but
what they will undertake something like
the local newspaper men have handled so
successfully"

KIRKPATRICK WILL
REMAIN WITH CITY
FOR SOME TIME YET
Will Do Special Work on
Viaduct Matter - Chief
Benefits Resignation
Fails to Materialize

City Engineer Walter G. kirkpatrick
did not sever his official connection with
the city yesterday Indications are that
he will not do so for some time.
AS will be remembered. the disassocia-
ton OF Mr.. Kirkpatrick with the city en-
cheering department January 1 was am
nouneed by the city commission several
weeks ago at the time the last retrench-
ment of that body was made public. 1t
was stated at the time that Mr.. Kirk
patricks departure from the services oi
ton of the city. and not to the lack of
ability or efficiency on the part of Mr..
Kirkpatrick.
At the commission me eting today. Com
missioner James Weatherly will probably
introduce a resolution providing for the
employment of Mr.. kirkpatrick ON some
special work in the engineering depart
ment. 1t is understood that another of
the commissioners has agreed with Mr..
Weatherlp.'in this proposition. The special
work in which Mr.. Kirkpatrick will be
engaged will be the plans for the viaduct
at First avenue and Twenty
ht-ect. II iS stdteu tiiiS Will pfopdpi3
occupy his attention some two or three
months.
Mr.. Weatherly stated last night that
there might be some other matters also
which Mr.. Kirkpatrick might be asked to
work out in the near future. but that
nothing further than the viaduct matter
haa been so far considered.
Circulation of the report yesterday that
Mr.. Kirkpatrick probably would be re-
tained as a member of the engineering
department generally gave rise to the be-
lief that unless new phases developed IN
the situation. Mr.. Kirkpatrick would prob
ably be connected with the city for some
time to come. At the time the retrench-
ment was announced IT was stated une-
quivocally by the commissioners that Mr..
Kirkpatrick would sever his connection
with the city January !. That the mind
of the commission has been changed or
shown a tendency to cnange since that
time is considered more or less signifi-
cant.
Incidentally, with the advent of Janu-
AIRY l, many persons yesterday recalled
the reported resignation of Fire Chief A.
V. Bennett, which was announced some
time ago to take effect on that date As
is known, statements were later given
out by city officials that Chief Bennett
probably would not resign for some
months to come" Nothing definite has
teen done. ard yesterday passed and
Chief BENEFITS actual resignation did not
materialize.
II is now believed that the incident is
history, and that the probabilities of Chief
Eennetts resignation ARE now very small.
The commissioners regard Chief Bennett
as a highly efficient official.

John Wiley of Canada and

" Visit the Sylacauga
Marble Region

John Wiley of Winnipeg. Canada, and
j. NJ. Billups of New York are in Bir-
mingham on business. Both are officials
Nof the Marble Quarry company, a new
;honcern backed by Canadian, English and
New York capital, having extensive hold
ings in marble lands adjoining the ia
nous quarries of the Moretti-Harrah
Marble company at Sylacauga.
Mr. Wiley states that the company
owns about 80 acres of land at Sylacauga
which has been prospected, and the cores
bored by Messrs Ricketts, and Banks
mining and metallurgical engineers of
New York, who report large body of
Nigh grade white marble lying close to
the surface.
The company will commence installing
the necessary equipment and machinery
to quarry the marble at once. In refer
ence to the Sylacauga marble. Mr.. Wiley
said that on Tuesday last he witnessed
a trainload, 16 cars. of white marble be-
ing shipped to New York from the Moret-
ii quarries. This, he said tended to show
the high grade of the Alabama marble,
as there are many marble quarries nearer
to New York which would greatly lessen
the freight rates to that point.
