His imprisonment Hesnys that he has suffered
from failing health. and that being unable
to work he was severely logged again and
again. md set 10 tasks far beyond his strength.
Mr.. James Shcvln. the Warden Of the Peni-
Tertiary says that the prisoner Bender never
WIS given work to do that he was too feeble to
accomplish. lie showed the reporter through
the institution, which WAS in admirable order,
but declined To allow him TO speak to Bender.
II charge was made agni INST him. he said. he
WINS prepared to meet II. but hr would not de-
part rom the rulcs Of tho institution. which
forbade him to allow any one tO visit the pris-
oners. except on certain occasions.
You may sHv, however" h" added. that
the charge that have had him logged IL per-
fccty true. He deserved the punishment ns

story on Tom P. OF Mineral
Point, who was in the city this
week in attendance upon the
Grand Masonic doings, He
was standing in the Office Of the
Plankinton House on Tuesday
night, having put on his over
coat to 60 to the hall where they
had opened a riding school for
goat cavalry, the r. A. Ms,
many of them having gone over
ahead of him. AS he was about
to start a couple OF gentlemen
were about to 60 out, and one
Of them said "Come on, Tom,
let's 20 to the hall" Tom look
cd at the men, and though he
could not recall their names, he
supposed they were brother
masons from the country, and
he walked along with them. 1t
happened that the strangers
were distinguished lsraelites
from abroad, delegates to the
session OF the Lodge Of B'nai
Birth, q secret order of great
responsibility, Tom went along
with his new friends, talking
pleasantly, and finally they ar
rived at the ante-room OF the
Jewish lodge. Tom looked
around for familiar faces but
did not see any. He thought
he had never, in all his attend
ance upon Wisconsin Masonic
bodies, seen so many Israelitish
citizens, but he was glad they
had joined the masons, anyway,
because he knew they were all
COMPOUNDED good fellows Final
ly they all passed into the hall,
after giving the proper signal,
bnt him, and Tom walked up
to the gentleman NJ the door
and whispered some Latin three
cornered Maltese cross gibberish
into the ear of the astonished
guard. The Jewish gentlemen
Jumped back rs though struck
with q dumb bell, looked at
Tom as though he was a bad
man from up north, and said,
"Vas is dasl" Tom put his
mouth up to the ear OF the door
tender ana gave him another
dose OF skull and cross bones
that fairly took him Off his feet.
The door tender sounded an
alarm, and in u second Tom
was surrounded by fierce look
ing men who looked as hough
they would eat him raw, with
nothing on but a little vinegar
he was asked who he was, where |
he came from how long he had |
been there, and where he eX-
pecled to SO to. He said he
was a mild man, and II good
citizen, and easily aroused to
deeds of violence, but il they
didn't let him in he would kick
the door down. He said that
was II pretty way to treat a
and if they didn't be
lieve he was all right they could
send in for Whitney, the High
Priest. "lligh Priest T. said
they, 1--WE haven no high priest. ="
"Well" says Tom. "bling out

or Harvey Hubbard, or Am
brose Hoffman, orDave Wright,
or John Woodruff, or any Of
the boys, and they will vouch
for me-" He said he was no
SLOUGH, trying to get in where
he didn't belong. One of the
Israelites took in the situation
and said, "My kind friend,
you are very likely in the wrong
pew. This is the lodge OF B'nai
Birth. The Masons are holding
their session in another hall.
Give our compliments to them"
