The Young Peoples society of the Ma.
zareth Norwegian Unitarian church, at
it's weekly meeting Monday evening, dis
cussed the A. P. A. At the opening Of
the discussion the meeting seemed pre-
disposed in favor of the A. P. A. But
those who opposed the SOC city spoke
very convincingly and at the close of the
discussion most, if not all, Of those pres
emit had changed their minds. Themost
teli. objections against the A. 2. A.
we're: That it is unreasonable or unjust
to pledge ones self not to vote for OF en-
ploy Catholics; that the A. P. A. agita.
ton divides up the laboring people into
hostile camps, and that it unites the
Catholics in opposing certain American
institutions. >,
At the monthly meeting of the board
of charities and corrections last Tuesday
Commissioner Cloutier stated that he
had been informed that female prisoner

by being strung up by her thumbs, and
if the report was true he would protest
most vigorously. Supt. Meloy, who was
present. denied the statements of cruelty
stating that the facts had been grossly
exaggerated. A woman had been hand
cuffed and placed in the rings for hel
obstreperous conduct. After an hours
confinement in this manner she con
sented to obey orders and was released

from July 10 to September 5 severa
prisoners were brutally treated, but ]
have stopped all that, and any employs
who now lays his hands on any inmate
will be suspended at once"
