The days of minstrelsy were won
derfully depicted by the boys of the
Ascension parish last Wednesday eve

crowded house greeted the young min

for their performance, as it has been
years since real minstrel show was
given in Minneapolis and that this
happy success should fall to the Ascen-
sion boys every reader will be glad to
note. The days of the Dockstaders,

rampage throughout the hall. Every
one enjoyed the affair immensely and
all wished for repetition of the show.

ENGLISH ILLTREAT
WOMEN PRISONERS

Reliable news has come to Dublin
of the harsh treatment accorded the
Irish rebel prisoners who are serving
long term sentences in English pris-
ons. A demand for an investigation
Of the charges is to be made when
parliament re-assembles. The English
prison system is notoriously cruel, the
wardens often dull and hardened while
the jailers are underpaid, rough, bru.
tai and ignorant to the last degree.
Most Of the Irish political prisoners
are poor men and have not the means
required to make their life less un-
bearable. Several are reported as fail
ing fast in health through severe con-
finement. They are refined and edu.
Gated men, accustomed to gentle sur
roundings, who in civilized nations
should be treated only as political pris-
oners.
For some alleged trivial offense Pro.
fcssor John MacNeill of Dublin,
noted scholar, serving a life sentence,
was sentenced to solitary confinement
and fed only on dry bread. The Irish
prisoners in many cases are confined
in solitude where they pick oakum. In
other cases they are compelled to do
the vilest work in insa1itary places.
They are badly fed and forced to work
side by side with the most hardened
criminals and murderers in Dartmoor
prison. Visitors are not permitted to
sec them.

Countess Iarkieviez
Is Failing IN Health

Dublin, Jan. 21.-Countess Markie-
vicz, who is serving life sentence in
Aylesbury Prison, in Buckinghamshire,
England, for her participation in the
Dublin uprising, has failed in health
considerably during the past few
weeks, owing to bad treatment.
The statement made recently by the
Home Secretary in Parliament that
Madame Markievicz had had the same
privileges as male convicts is de-
nounced as false by those who are con-
versant with the facts. They declare
that this lady of education and refine
ment, regardless of the political nature
of her offense against British author
ity, is kept scrubbing in the prison
kitchen and compelled to herd with the
lowest and vilest of the female crimi-
nails of England. She is emaciated
and looks many years older than she
really is because Of the brutal treat
ment to which she has been subjected
since her surrender in Dublin and par
ticularly since her arrival in Aylesbury.
Bad as is the treatment of Madame
Markievicz, the conduct of the prison
officials towards alien women confined
in Aylesbury is described as still
worse. "Unspeakable" is the term
used to describe it. One woman, a
German by birth, who is the wife of
an American, Mrs. Evelyn, has had
her little child, aged five, taken from
her, and after the separation the little
one was only allowed to see the mother
three times week in the presence of
an officer, and the mother was only
permitted to speak English to the little
one, which the child did not at first un-
derstand.
Latterly Mrs. Evelyn's baby has been
removed to a village three stations
from Aylesbury, and the mother only
sees her twice week.
Despite her parents protests the
child is being sent to some kind Of q
school, where she is looked upon by
the other pupils as "the little Hun
When Mrs. Evelyn, becoming excited
over the treatment of herself and hel
baby, exclaimed, Il will do something
desperate IL you treat my child like
this" the prison officials prepared 6
padded cell for the woman and would
have thrown her into It and reported
her in the records Of the prison as in
sane but for the protests of some O
the other prisoners.
