He was a blacksmith before he committed the crime. When he entered prison he was tall and powerful.

To-day he is a wreek. His eyes are so weak from years of dim light that he is unable to read. He does not smoke. He has no one to write to. He just sits in his cell-wailing.

ALCATRAZ ISLAND

America's "prison of eternal silence",

Al Capone Promoted In America's "Gaol Of Eternal Silence"

New York, Sept. 1.
