Public Disgrce

criticism which we have to offer
should stand as a public disgrace to
Marion County This criticism con-
Germs the temporary care of insane

THE Jail has absolutely no facili-

and raving, similar to one confined
at the time of our visit. and the
grand jury suggests and the public
should demand that a place be pro
vided at Julietta at whatever ex-

on earth and Marion County is rich
enough to provide this most needed
of all relief.

Officials Criticised

THE grand jury feels that the
worst conditions existing at Julietta
are the cell rooms in the woman's
department for the confinement Of
unruly or violent patients. The
present rooms are nothing less than
dungeons, being inside with no out
side light or air, and the unrorunates
who have to be placed in solitary
confinement should not be treated as
animals, and the grand jury wishes
to go on record as severely censur-
ing the county officials who fail to
provide, even at any expense, new.

Cause Still Mystery

Exact cause of the tragedy is
still more or less of a mystery and
may remain so. Lieutenant Com
mander Reinecke. chief gunnery Off
Ger of the Mississippi's crew, told the
board his first impression" was
that it was caused by a foul bore.
in spite of the fact that this was a
splendidly drilled and we'll instructed
crew, with an experienced and most
reliable gun captain whose duty it is
to see if the bore is clear.
More definite information regard
ing this possible explanation may be
secured from Chief Turret Captain
E. J. Rynes, but there is some pos
sibility his testimony will never be
heard.
Rynes is near death on the hos

WANTS FAMOUS PTCTITRE

Very romantic is the story of a fla nous picture by Palma Vecchio, which before the war adorned ihe church of Quero, district = Belluno, in northern Italy. During the war the picture was taken away either by Hungarian sol dsers or by the Hungarian general, Ju- lias Sipos, and brought to Bud pest by the latter. The general presented the picture to the A'us um of the Hunga- rian town of Stuhlweissenburg, ut withdrewn his gift when the crim ,al court of StuLlweissenburg opened pro- cedure against him for having illegally appropriated the ot ject he was donating.
 The general, however, was acquitted and sold his treasure 70 Bella Kovacs, a lawyer in Budapest. MT. Kovacs sub mitted his paintin:: to experts for ex- animation, who stated that it was e of the finest products of the Italian painter and, dating back to 1914, the ripest period of the master. They esti- mated it's value at 50,000 gold crowns.
 kovafs obtained permission from the Hungarian government to sell the pie ture and went to Paris, where art deal CTS offered bi-n $50,O00. A French art expert, remembering that the painting belonged formerly to the church, Quero, recommended Kovacs to get in touch with, the former Italian owners, who, he said, would pay him a still higher price.
 Thereupon Kovacs - CT: to Qnuero and Padua and offered his Palma Vec- chic, first, t. the arson of Quero and then to the bisLop of Padua, tut beth declared they had not enough money for the deal. Meanwhile, the story got to the Italian authorities. who, through the foreign office in Rome, demanded the unconditional extradition of the painting, which, the Italian government says, was carried away as loot and must, therefore, be rest red to the legal owners. But the problem is not so easy as it looks because the picture is de- posited somewhere abr d. So far [ Kovacs has refused to reveal the hiding place.-From a Vienna letter to the New York Herald Tribune.

NOVELTY FOUND
 ON LYRICS BILL
Qunbar's Bell Ringers To
 Head Vaudeville Pro- { gram Next Week

Novelty is the thing on the new bill, which opens at the Lyric Monday after noon. to be presented for the first half of the week. However, it is not every thing, because there is wide variety of N entertainment in the five acts of big \ time Keith vaudeville, including singing. dancing and comedy of the cleverest. As a sauce to the main bill, there are nov city screen offerings. -
 The headliner brings one of the most novel acts on the vaudeville stage and one which has held top position for years. This is Dunbar's Bell Ringers, the musical act extraordinary. The artists in this act show just how much music may be wrung from bells-big bells, little bells, dinner bells, bicycle |, bells-as matter of fact every kind of bell that is known.
 For an added attraction Neil Mack
 and Vera Velmagss vaudeville stars of
 the brightest eauSefe, will present, "A
 Writing Room Wrangle." This is, of
 course, comedy skit, droll in the ex-
 treme, critics say, with musical back
 ground. Mir. Mack offers song or two
 in his unique voice, while Miss Velmar
 dances in style that is said to. be entirely her own.
 The special feature is the offering of
 that amusing individual, Al Wohlman.
 Mir. Wohlman is monologuist, and he
 is ranked with the best there are in his
 line. ''The Graduate" is what he calls
 his line of entertaining song and story, both of them being new and novel. To round out the bill there are Fred ], Whitfield and Marie Ireland in 'l"Umphs- -Ville," rural satire, and Val
 entine and Bell, the furniture removers,
 a bicycling act.

Star course on holiday, New Years day, Fortune Gallo's splendid de Luxe San Carlo Opera company has been chosen as the attraction. This is the same company which scored such a tremendous success at the Al Jolson theater in New York this fall and the same company which opened the new auditorium at Memphis on October 20, when 30,000 people heard three operas.
 Following the opera Paul White mans orchestra with Paul Whiteman (himself) making his initial bow to Bir- mingham will be presented. Paul White mans orchestra is regarded as the out standing musical novelty of the season of 1924-25, and so popular is the at traction that hundreds of cities have been unable to secure it, so I regard Birmingham as unusually fortunate.

 Associated with Mrs. Shipman in the All Star course will be A. Brown Parkes as business manager who has long been affiliated with the theatrical and musical life of Birmingham, hay ing wide acquaintance and experience both with artists and managers.
 Birmingham music lovers ase well as those throughout the state of Ala bama and adjacent cities have been so universally cordial in the past and have shown so clearly their desire to hear the highest class musical attractions that am very happy to have the op- portunity of continuing to present through the All Star course this sea- son some novelties which are sure to please" said Mrs. Shipman.
 '.Deviating somewhat from the con ventional recital program and thus avoiding so much sameness in the mat ter of concerts, the All Star course will combine musical novelties with straight programs.
