than it did a few years ago. Not more than
ten or q dozen years ago the men and women
were kept in the same building, with only a
wooden partition dividing the tiers or cells ana
the women outdd the men in foul and Dias-
phemous language. The youngest prisoners
were mixed In with the hardened cuprits, and
became heroes in the eyes OF the admirinS boys
who visited them on Sundays. The cells were
dirty. and the air of the prison was foul. On the
whole. the condition Of affairs tailed much more
accurately with Dickens's descriptions OF the
Narshalsea than with the accepted demands OF
q modern Jail.
All this is now changed The women occupy
