How Prisoners Converse.
A man who was sent to jail recently
for three days for small offense was
greatly impressed with the precau-
lions taken to prevent the prisoners
engaging in conversation. There seem
ed to be warders everywhere, and no
one was allowed to utter a word
On the Sunday he was in the church
the psalm given was the "Old Hun
dredth." Beside him were two old jail
birds, and instead Of the orthodox
words beginning "All people that on
earth do dwell'' this pair sang a hymn
of their own in conversational style,
which went something as follows:
First convict sings:
"How long are you in for?
I am doing sixty days.
I nearly broke copper's jaw.
Sing low or else they'll maybe hear"
Second convict replies:
"You are lucky pic-can.
I've got twel-elve months to serve.
Tried to break into a house.
Some'dy must have glen me away"
By this method they exchanged his
tories during the singing-Glasgow
