Prisoners Of Parliament.

prison. Yet situated high up In the
clock tower is the NJ. P.'s prison, con-
sisting of four bedrooms and two sit,
ting rooms.
The honorable member who has been
dishonored by imprisonment for a
breach Of parliamentary etiquette does
not have very hard life In st.
Stephens prison. The prisoners meals
are sent up to him from the house OF
commons kitchens, and he can choose
whatever dishes he likes from the or
binary menu. Unlike an ordinary pris-
oner, he receives the bill for his meals
from the catering authorities.
Perhaps the best remembered occu-
pant Of parliament's prison was Mr..
Bradlaugh, who was sentenced by the
speaker to Imprisonment In the clock
tower for refusing to withdraw when
requested so to do.
