PLANS SUBMITTED BY THE COMMITTEE Women Will Divide City Into Districts in EnfOrc-
 ing Sanitary Laws

Tentative plans to assist the city in sanitation and disposal of garbage were submitted to the joint committee of the Woman's Civic league and the Equal Suffrage association yesterday after noon by the subcommittee. Mrs. Du- pcnt Thompson and Mrs. Angus NJ Taylor. The general plan of this work is to perfect organizations in the sev- eral school districts of the city, as the SC lines are clearly defined Mrs Dupont Thompson, president of the civic league, will have charge of the movement with two lieutenants. one to have charge of the wornan's organiza- ton and the other among the men.
 Each of the school districts will be organized with subchairman In charge and the women of the district and school children will be enlisted In the work.
 The work of these organizations will be to inspect and assist in keeping premises in a sanitary condition and to see that the garbage Is disposed of. While they will be clothed with au- thority to enforce the city ordinances, the work will be rather one of educa- ton and appeal to civic pride. Other organizations. social, fraternal and otherwise, will be asked to assist in the work.
 Mrs. Thompson announced that r,eeting will be held in a few days to which all organizations and persons interested in conserving the health of the city will be invited to attend. The plan of the committee of eight will be submitted to the city commissioners and if approved will be put into effect at once.

Legislative Matters Will Be Principal Items of Dis-
 cussiOn at Lunch

Legisla tive matters pertaining to real estate will be the main subject under dis cussion at the weekly meeting of the 'Bir- mingham Real Estate exchange at the Tutwiler hotel today at 1 o'clock.
 H D. Williams, one of the representa- lives of the local exchange at the big real estate convention in Los Angeles, has just returned and will make brief report on the convention and the big San Fran cisco exposition, which he visited.
 Owing to certain vacancies on the en- tertainment committee, the exchange has appointed a new live body of men who have expressed their willingness to pro- vide for the entertainment of members, and take care of the social side of the exchange. This committee is going to make a special effort to increase the at- tendance at the weekly lunches. The com mittee is as follows: A. R. Dearborn, Jr.. chairman; Jerome Tucker. Robert Ma lone, Ravee Norris, Fred Barber and L.. S. Morgan.
 In the July issue of the National Real Estate Journal on the cover page are two large photographs of Birmingham, the one taker in 1897 and the other in 1915. show ing the contrast and wonderful develop ment in IS years. In the first picture are one and two-story buildings with the ap- pearance of a country village. and in the second picture is seen the great skyscraper district as 1t exists today. On the back inside cover of the magazine is a large ad- vertisement of the Birmingham Real Es- tate exchange showing investors the ad- vantages of Birmingham real estate.

HUMANE SOCIETY
 TO CONTINUE WORK
Will Do Without Services of Paid Officer. But Will Be Aided by
 Inspector Turner

The Birmingham Humane society will maintain its organization in as s;sting the city officials in the preven- tor of cruelty to children and anil mals With the loss of the appropria- ton from the city the paid humane or fcer could not be retained, nor the as- satant secretary. Mrs. w. N. Wood, president, stated in a communication to the commissioners that the society ex- pressed it's regret at the financial crisis the city was undergoing and that it wished to tender its services to the city. The commissioners accepted the offer with their sincere apprecia- tion. The letter of Mrs. Wood follows:
 Birmingham July 21. 1915. "IIon. George B. Ward, City Commis- sioner, Birmin gham, Ala.
 Dear Sir The officers. members and friends of the Birmingham Humane so- ciety, at the special meeting yesterday expressed their sympathy regarding the present deplorable financial prob lems of the city, also their wish to continue their assistance to the city In enforcing the laws for prevention of cruelty to children and animals. The police inspector. Judge Turner, has agreed to provide police to answer i'm portant calls from the humane office for the present, whenever possible.
 We will fully appreciate the con t.nued occupancy or an oHlce which will be attended by myself daily from S.30 to D. m.

 Flat Top, July 10. 1915.
 To the Editor of The Age Herald
 Dear sir-The article appearing in your worthy paper of today, July ia. 1915, re- garding Flat Top prison and iia officials. In reply to same. wish to state that In large measure it has been overdrawn and quite an injustice has been donc, "espe- cially so In regard to our new officials. whose present positions date from May l. 1915 having been here the past two years myself, am in position to know whei efore I write. Perhaps tho author. having been looked upon with disfayor, is seeking revenge. Now as far as the pen tcntiary is concerned. it's no summer re- sort. and man is indeed very foolish to come here or any other penttentlary expecting to have n picnic.
 Tn, food is cooked and served 100 per cent better than under the old regime: it Is well seasoned and Is clean Another big item, nearly every day il Is changed; we have a variety | remember here some months ago when we were served pens every day, Sunday included. for six weeks. and when we'd pour them in our
 
 they were only half cooked. As to hu- mane treatment, that's another i01 per cent Improvement. Captain Dawson. the previnus warden, told me personally there had been 237 county convicts punished In the month of February, not counting state men and nunkies. Since our new officials took charge. only three white prisoners have been puninhed. and a man must expect 1t il he breakc the rules which Is correct. There are sev- eral here who still bear the scars that were put there by other officials. AS to clothes, l have heard but few complaints. Our cells are kept in as clean and sanitary condition as possible. Where so many mon are congregated together all can't be neat. you know. In conclusion | wish to state our worthy warden, Captain ]. H. Trce, is very fair square man In every sense of the word. and all the inmates are Inter- ested in his welfare. Our deputy warden Captain Gresham, Is as courteous and agreeable as his position will permit, and is interested in the welfare of my unfor- tunate brothers. Taking everything into consideration, we are by far 100 per cent better off than we were in every degree and am In hopes the convicts at this camp will, appreciate the best efforts of our new officials and help to make it a model camp in every sense the word implies. Respectfully, ELMER T. BLACK.

DUPLICATION IS GOING TO CAPITAL TODAY
 IN INTEREST OF BIRMINGHAM REVENUE BILL

event the amendment carried. the. peo- pi, of Birmingham would have to de- ttfmine by vote whether they wanted the tax raise or not
 It is understood the majority or the Jefferson county delegation Is Tn Favor cf the proposed bill and will work Tor its passage. It is suggested, however, that opposition may develop and that for this reason 1t is necessary that the citizens of Birmingham should get squarely behind the bills.
 IL is possible that the delegation while in Montgomery will urge the passage of the bill refundine to the city of irmingham the sum of S2Oo,o0o from the county funds. It has been stated that even if the bills proposed are passed 1t will be from two to three years before the city will receive the financial benefits from them and that about the only immediate relief will be tn, passage of the above bill.
 Those urging the passage of the bill to refund contend that the people Of Birmingham pay Into the county treas ury s665. 0oo annually and that less than 30 Der cent Is applied to the city. It is thought the measure will pass as but little opposition to 1t has developed.

OFFICER SUSPENDED
 FOR WEEK BY LANE
Witnesses Testify to Mis- treatment of Prisoner by
 Policeman E. H. Bentley

Officer F. H. Bentley, against whom charges of brutality and conduct unbe- coming an officer were brought, was sus- pended by Commissioner A. o. Lane yes- terday afternoon at o clock for a period of one week. Officer Bentley was repri- manded for the treatment of his prisoner. N. T. Hickman, who lodged the complaint against the officer.
 The decision of Commissioner Lane came as surprise to those who were familiar with the case. Six witnesses of reputable character testified that they saw Bent ley knock his prisoner to the floor twice in the wardens office.
 The charges against Officer Bentley grew out of the arrest of Carl Difley and N. T. Hickman last Saturday night. Difley was locked up while Hickman had the charge of dsorderly conduct aggravated placed against his name. Hickman tesu- fled that lie was in company with Difley on the night of the arrest when Officer Bentley came up and placed Difley under arrest. Hickman requested the officer to allow him to take his friend, who he ad- 1nitted was irresponsible. home in a taxi cab. Bentley then placed Hickman under arrest. As he~ entered the door of the wsrden's office. Bentley knocked Hick- man to the floor. After Hickman had re- gained his feet and gotten to the place where prisoners are searched Bentley again knocked Hickman to the floor. War den Glover interferred and kept the of- ficef from further chastsng his prisoner.
 Difley appeared at the trial with a broken thumb and doctors certificate and testified that Officer Bentley broke it in two places when he bent it back until the bones broke.
 Hickman and Difley, in a statement to an Age-Herald reporter, declared that they would swear out warrant for Officer Bentley this morning.
