Recruiting for the Army

Notwithstanding the pressing need for more enlisted men, both in General Pershing's expeditionary force in Mex leo and in General Funston's border force, the high standard, physical and moral, required of recruits is strictly maintained. Hence 1t is that only about one-sixth of the 10000 addi- tional regulars authorized recently by Congress have been accepted.
 At the end of the third week of spe- cial recruiting, there had been an az gregate of 11,S49 applications for en- listment but only 2879 acceptances which fact shows how rigid are the examinations. At this rate it will be several months yet before the full complement is secured. But there is one satisfaction-when a new man is sworn in he has in him the making ol model soldier.
 The amendment to the army re organization bill in the Senate pro viding vocational training for the en listed men should be an inducemen1 to young men of ambition whose op lportunities had been neglected to joir
 the regulars, for at the end of theil four years service on duty with th'
 colors they will be equipped to tak'
 up a trade or calling. According tt
 the amendment, each soldier is to b allowed TO hours per month for voca
 tional work or study, when practica
 ble. This feature of army life ha 1 long been a hobby with certain re formers and ''uplifters," and the idle;
 is good one, although not every en listed man who desires to apply him

LETTER FOOLED MRS. FISIxE

From the New York Telegraph.
 The actors fund has been enriched by $i in graft money. The contribution came from Mrs. Fiske, who. in turn. had re- ceived it from a conscience stricken pass grafter. In forwarding her check for the amount to Daniel Frohman, president of the fund. Mrs. Fislze inclosed the letter which had accompanied the returned $4. It read as follows:
 Dear Madam Years ago. in the time Of 'Bumpstead-Leig I was tempted and fell. I boasted I could write letter to you and you would send me tickets without my suggesting such an action. It grieves me-but the truth is you fell for it-and it was capacity houses at that time. too.
 Until the last night I intended to re- turn them--for they were graft. But the temptation was too great, and I used the paper Since then my New England conscience and my New England econ omy have driven me backward and for ward between honesty and cupidity. and am worn to a frazzle. For the first time in all these years honesty has the upper hand and I am returning the graft so skilfully extorted from you. I still admire your work. but can no longer love you. The strain of the last few years has been too great to allow that emotion a further foothold My con science is again easy. but at terrific cost-four dollars.''

Revelation to Visitors

The tour over the industrial dis trict which was made yesterday by the members of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers proved to be a revelation to most of the viistors," said Faul Wright, secretary of the local chapter of the national organization. These men are the leaders in the en- gineering world and their visit to Bir- minSham cannot but result in good for the city and the district.
 The steel mill and the other plants at F.nslcy and Fairfield attracted much favorable comment from the visitors and Fairfield was a revelation 10 them as an ideal industrial city. They had all heard much in recent years of the Birmingham district but they admitted after completing the tour of the dis trict that we had much more than they had anticipated.
 All the delegates were delighted that they had seen fit to stop over here, and they considered this one of the most pleasant features of their trip south"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-04-11

plorable fact that the men who usual ly take part in this form of lawless- ness are not illiterate. The ring-lead- CTS of mobs are men of average intel ligence, whose passion gets the bet ter of their reason. The campaign against illiteracy does not touch men of that class. What is needed to show them the error of their ways is not so much a better education as a cam paign for more enlightened public sentiment
 The fact that men of some influ- ence in community are often guilty of such outrages explains why so few are ever brought to justice. Investiga- tions are made by the legal authori- ties but it is seldom indeed that the blame is fixed. Such proceedings are nothing more than empty formalities. It would be surprising indeed if they brought forth any evidence that would convict lyncher.
 The sociologists are sincere in their efforts to improve conditions, but many of them are theorists, and some of their views are apt to be the inn practical sort. However, great prog ress has already been made in combat ing disease and illiteracy in the south, due to the cooperation of public spirited citizens who do not pose as Isociologists, but are nevertheless do- ing a noble work for their fellow man.
 If the congress at New Orleans can offer an effective remedy to stop lynching it will gladly be tried, but 1t will require something more than resolutions to check this evil.

Mrs Edith Wharton the American au- thor, has received the decoration of the Legion of Honor from the French govern ment for her relief work for war victims in Europe. Since the war began Mrs. Wharton, member of an old New York family, has devoted herself to aiding the Belgian war refugees in France and 40,O0O Belgian prisoners in Germany. She is also an active member of the children of Elan ders rescue committee in Paris. Mrs. Wharton compiled the Book of the Homeless as part of her work of alle- viation. The volume contains 42 contribu- tions of poetry prose and music and b illustrations by some of the most famous men and women in France, England and America. The contents were sold at auc- ton in New York last January and brought $69C0. Mrs. Wharton is one of the most successful of American noveists and some of her books have achieved wide popularity. Her House of Mirth" had an enormous sale. Mrs. Wharton and Clyde Fitch dramatized the book for the stage.

To Cheek Lynching

The Southern Sociological congress, which meets in New Orleans this week, beginning Wednesday, plans to launch an effective campaign in six teen southern states against disease, iliteracy and immortality. Delegates from all over the south will attend and the principal southern cities, in- cluding Birmingham, Atlanta, Louis- vile, Chattanooga and Mobile, will be we'll represented.
 It is rightly held that lynching is due in part to illiteracy, and the con cress will devote much of it's time to 4 discussion of this evil, which has been a blight on the south for many years. With the decrease of illiteracy and immortality, lynching will no doubt hocome less frequent, but it is a de-

Coming to the Reunion

q go to every reunion within my reach,' said N. F. Warren, Confeder- ate veteran of Shelby county, who was in Birmingham yesterday, and l have the time of my life while there.
 q appreciate the fact that the re- unions make it possible for me to meet my old comrades and go over again the experiences that none will ever for get. The war days were the happy days even If we did have to dodge shells and go hungry. I enlisted in the Thlr- ty-first Alabama regiment from Cal houn county when l was 16 years Of age and did active service through most of the struggle.
 q am glad the reunion will again be held in Birmingham, and l am also glad that Birmingham is going to be able to do more for the veterans this time than before. With the added fine hotel facilities Birmingham should be able to take care of the crowds who will attend in fine shape"

Industrial Activity Expanding

With the advance of spring general trade conditions improve and in the industrial field operations are making new high records.
 The railroads have been eager buy CTS of equipment for several weeks past and rail orders. some of them for large tonnage, are crowding into the steel mills at rapid rate. Con- tracts placed since the first of April have been unusually heavy, and in not "a few instances the railroads, within the past week, have supplemented their orders for 1917 delivery.
 The car shops are now buster than | they have been at any time since the new era of prosperity set in, and in- creased activity is reported in nearly every line of enterprise. Not only will the first half of the year be marked by a greater volume of iron and steel production than in any simi- lar period for years past, but every indication points to sustained activity during the second half of 1916 and we'll into next year.
 In the Birmingham district the ag- gregate of the pay rolls is greater than in any previous year. If the coal production in 1915 showed de- crease of two million tons or more compared with 1913, when maximum output was reached, the increase in other industrial operations has much more than offset any loss in the sum total of mining wages.
 Last fall when revival in the iron and steel trade was just beginning, I the effect on mercantile business was mostly sentimental. Optimism was naturally in evidence, but as the months passed thousands of wage earners who had been idle or who had been working only two or three days week found themselves catching up and getting out of debt. The evi- dence of this cheering condition is seen today in many directions, nota- bly in the real estate agents rental business and in better collections.
 Some people who felt that pros perity was returning became i'm patient and grouched a bit because flush times did not materialize faster
 But every week witnesses substantial improvement and he who complains of "dull business" from now on may be set down as chronic pessimist.

HOTEL LOBBIES
Improvement in Hotels

Birmingham should be proud of this hotel" said c. s. Timberlake of Hart ford, Conn.,. general agent of the marine and transportation department of the Hartford Fire Insurance company at the Tutwiler yesterday.
 Tt makes great impression on a vis- itor to be entertained in a place like this and the fact is being appreciated all over the continent. 1 have been travelling all over the United States and Canada dur ing the past 20 years, and it is simply marvellous to note the improvement in hotel facilities during that time. Can adian cities are just as alert as those in the United States.
 "A travelling man soon learns the cit ies with the good hotels and man would come long way to get to spend Sunday in this one in Birmingham

THE POWER OF LOVE

From Answers, London.
 The poor, weeping woman stood before the judge, and the sympathies of the spectators went out to her. She looked muscular, but so miserable.
 You are charged said the magistrate sternly but kindly, with assaulting your husband"
 Gulping down her sobs, the prisoner wiped away her tears with a brawny hand and replied sadly:
 ''Yes, your worship. I only asked the brute if he would ever cease to love me, and he was so long in answering that ] hit him in the eye with a broom. I'm only defenseless woman," she went on in a broken voice, '.and woman's life without love is mere blight!'

BAT COULD SEE WITH HIS WINGS

EAT COULD SEh W AANOo From 'The Story of Atalapha-A Winged
 Brownie" by Ernest Thompson Seton,
 in the April Scribner.
 Opening the cage he seized the fur-clad prisoner, then dropping deftly a little soft wax on each eyelid, he covered all with adhesive plaster so the eyes were closed, absolutely sealed; there was no possibility of one single ray of light. And then he let the captive fly in the room. Strong once more on the wing. Atalapha rose at once in wavering flight, then steadied himself, and lowering in the air he dashed for the ceiling. But a moment before striking he wheeled and skinned along the cornice, not touching the wall, and not in seeming doubt. The doctor reached out to catch him, but the bat lodged instantly and successfully. The doctor pursued with an insect-net in
 hand, but the blinded bat had some other sense that warned him. Darting across the room, he passed through the antlers of deer's head and though he
 had to shorten wing on each side. he
 touched them not. When the pursuing u6L ulONS liOihi tiiO SOAAii6' ii0 AiSW lew among the chairs, passing under legs and between rungs at full speed, with
 not a touch Then in a moment of full career near the floor he halted and how
 cred like humming bird before the tiny
 crack under the door, as though it prom
 ised escape. All along this he fluttered, then at the corner he followed it upward and lowering at the keyhole, he made a long pause This seemed to be way of escape. for the fresh air came in But he decided that it was too small, for he did not go near, and he certainly did not see it. Then he darted toward the stove, but recoiled before too close
 The roaring draught of the 'damper held him a moment, but he quickly flew avoiding the stovepipe wire, and hov- cred at another hairlike crack along the window.
 Next the doctor stretched many threads in angles of the room and set small rings of wire in the narrow ways. Driven up ward from the floor, the blinded prisoner skinned at speed along the high COT. ners of the room, he lodged the threads he shortened wing and passed in full | flight through the rings, and he wheeled | from every obstacle as though he had perfect vision. exact knowledge of its | place and form.
