and fifty silent prisoners polishing brass,
binding books and manufacturing wom-

shaven faces there were iail-bird physi-
ogomies, but many pale and haggard
looks, inspiring more sympathy and com
passion than repulsion. Questioned as TO
the amount of sympathy different classes
Of prisoners inspire in the warders, the

more of these cells, for when a man has
been in one once he never wants to re-
turn. Each cell is about eight feet long
by five feet wide, one of the sides IS oc-
