| ) . bosom fiiend the secret of where to LONDOK'S FAMOUS JAIL, Newgate, the Historical Crimi- nal Landmark, to be De- molished. Unhealthy and Superflnons Effi cacy of the Whipping-Post. London Cor. New York Express Gradually the ancient landmarks of London are passing away, and among those which will, in ali probability, remain buta short time longer, is the prison of Newgate. Frequently con- demned as unsanitary, badly arranged and unfit for the purpose to which it was put, Newgate has continued to stand untd at last the commissioners of prisons have reported against its retention, and it only remains for the lome secretary to confirm their de- cision, Aceording to present arrange- ments there will be no new jail on the site of tho one now waiting to be pulled down. Clerkenwell prison will becomo the central lock-up for Lon- don malefactors; the courts of law which compose what is known as the 0ld Bailey will be enlarged so as to cover the space now occupicd by the prison, and no more trace will be left of Newgate than there is of Tyburn tree. A hideons and un- sightly objoct is that which will thus disappear. Black with smoke, though not a century old until next year, it defaces a great thoroughfave, and in- fuses a gloom into all who pass by its grimy portals. Tt never had any pre tentions to architectural beauty Dance, who built it 1782, had but one idem Two years previous had scen the Gordon riots,.and the great. fire which followed; the traditions of eri inals at tho time when the architect was called in werc principally records of jail-breaking, and Mr. Dance de- clared that he would ercct an edifice #o strong that no one inside would get out, and no one outside should get in, How far he succeeded, time has shown. The dismal building stands as stoutly as ' eyer, secure ‘against dy- namite conspiracies and gun-powder plots; and .were outer solidity all that wag required in a jail, it might con- tinue to darken Newgate street for many years to come. But thess are days when t .c hedlth of hardened and habitual criminals is looked after, and when; pestilence ‘must not threaten even the criminal; and the result is that the narrow cclls, dark passages and dull yards will soon be swept away and prisoners will know the in- terior of them no more. REMINISOENCES OF CRIRINALS, Newgate 13 one of the most appall- ingly interesting structures in the country. If it is not exactly the same juilgs” that which Barnaby Rudge stormed and in which Fagin spent his last night, if D, Dodd tenanted the predecessor of the present wrison and read the sermon , which Dr. Jolmson composed for him in_a_ chapel which has never been pulled down, still the scanes which have been witnessed in the dungeon now threatened with re- moval are thrilling cnough for morc than passing interost. He it was that Thistlewood exclaimed, *“Isbhall soon know the last grand secret;” here Gov. Wall, after eluding justice for twenty years, was hanged for whipping a sol- dier to pieces at Goree; hore Fauntle- roy, dressed in black coat and trousers, with silk stockings and dress shoes, made his last bow to the public, and recerved a bow in return, having just previously contided to a buy the best Curacoa; and here, in later days, the pirates of the Flowery land were hanged in one long ghastly row. If it were not that the site up- on which the dreadful pl atands is wanted for othce purposes it might almost be left as a public museum, It boasts wavy a curiosity. - In a yard known as the exccution shed Lie by the side of the wall the long black up- rights and cross-pivecs of the gallows upon which criminal after criminal has swung. There s alse a black | triangle fitted with loops forthe hands, | the ankles and the knees of malefac- | tors sentenced to b whipped-a hor- | rible object, which sent many an un- comfortable thrill through a garroter’s heart, EFFICACY OF THE WHIY, Tt was upon this instrument, in fact, that the first experiment was e made in modern days as to the eflicac; of the whip in restraining the brutal; upon'it also, whon' the failing arm of Calcraft was tried and found wanting, stalwart warders from Helloway were firat invited to try their skill, and ruf- fiaus convicted of robbery with vio- lence learnt the force of the “‘regula- tion‘eat.” In this prison ‘are more- over'condemned ‘cells, in which many « shunned, despuiring mian and woman has passed the last fortnight of life, deploring the imistakes and misdeeds whigh had lead up to. incarceration and the gallows: here i u strange-looking chapel whero over and over again *‘condemned sermons” have | been preached; and, lastly, there aro in the corridor of the ‘prison, the of those w. having been ed ia accordance with law, | bean buried within the precincts of the of the jail, in strict observance of the lester of the sentence, All theso and many moro objects of intercst aro there to show in Newgate, but with tho jail they. must pass away. The historical wyves may go, like those which encircled the wrists of Dick Turpin, to the museum at York, or with the triangle and plaster casts of the hanged may be treasured amonget the city archives, They need not be Cestroyed, for they possess more than a passing value; they tell the tale of crime during a century, JMPROVEMENTS WHICH Y MADE, Newgate itself goes beeause it is a | thing of the past and does not belong at all tothe age in which we live. Both the prmson, .ite calendar, and “moral reflections,” are out of all place at a time when the prevention of erime, rather than rclu]{intiuu and revenge, ave the object of the law, Great' improyements have no doubt taken place in Newgate sjnce it was crected by Mr, Dance. Tt was in 1817 that Ms. "n"v first gave Ler attention to the coidition of the femele prison o ancargerated within its'walls, and passed the greator part of her timo amongst the wrctehed ercatures whoi accident and rime pad confined ther A very lit le Luter on and vast chur were to be sceu in the management « f the jail, which continusd to be well | <5 HAVE ~ BEEN Ve ? looked after till 1836 when once more & better system of supervision and the eeparation of hardened cpim- inals from debtors were recommended, The year 1843 witnessed yet other alterations, and so the prison went on improving, tew wards being built, the women being wholly separated from the men, while further ateps wore taken to meet the growing demands of the scient sanitation. Two years ago Newgate came vnder new control, passing out of the lands of the civie mandates, Then the uestion very properly arose whether in Clerkenwell the criminals who are sent to and from the Old Bailey could not be better provided for. This query has it scoms been answered in the atlirma- tive, und a very short time will elapse before the black walls and doors and dismal cells will be pulled down, and Newgate and its associations are broken up forever. THE STAGE PROMPTER. A Theatrical Personage Who Is Oftener Heard Than Seen. New York Sunday Times. The prompter’s duties are by no means unimportant ones; they com- mence with the rehearsal of the picce, when he distributes their parts to the various people. At rehearsals’ while the stage munager is directing, he s kept busy writing out parts for the changes of scene to guide tho stage carpenters, Jists of the propertics re- quired for the property man, schedules of the furniture and tapestries to be borrowed, andof the wardrobe requir- ed for the supernumeraries. As re gard the duties from which he derives his name, if any one fancies thoy are easy to perferm, he had better try them. Tt is a great deal more difficult to stand in the wings with a play-book in your hands and follow what is be- ing said than it is to doit from the front of the house. The prompter must follow the piece line for line. If an actor bolts in his speech for a moment he must throw him the word he knows the forgetful Thes- plan is groping for. If an actress looks appealingly at the entrance, he knows she is stuck, and it is his duty to help her out Some actors boast that they never stick. No matter if they have total- ly forgotten their lines they 'say somethidg,” as they phrase it, and I have never scen the difference noted by the audience yet. Ounee, whilo I was making the rounds of the golden Pacific coast, twenty yeats or so ago, T went to see a performance of *‘Mac- beth,” by the company of a_friend of mive in San Francisco. It was a tough company a band of regulation old time barn-stormers, and the fel- low who played Macbeth was so far gone in the dreamy vacancy of whisky that he “‘gagged” his part more than once in_his first scene. Finally, in the middle of his second, he was also dead lost. He hesitated, but only for o moment. Then he threw lis s around Laby Macbeth’s waist, wing her to him, cooly said: **Let us retire, dearest chuck, und con this matter overin a more sequester- ¢d spot, far from the busy haunts of wer. Here the walls and doors are spies, and our every word is far and near. Come, then, let's away ! False heart wmust hide, you know, what false heart dare not show.” They made their exit in aroar of ap- plause, and 1thought, **There's a man who has no use for a promptor, sure enough.™ All actors are not like him, however. Raw actors ave the promptor's horor. The debutaute is snother. She will forget every line the moment sho strikes the stage, and be 85 nervous, moreover, that she will not boable to repeat those the prompter reads to her. 1 remember one young lady who thought she had a mission to ¢ Julict, She made her appear- unce, supported by a country company and lost cvery line as usual. We prompted her through her first scene somchow, When the balcony scene was on, her mother stood on the lad- der behind her, reading her spocches, word for word, which she vepented But theold lady was a heavy weight, and the s 0 longer in the flower of youil; so, iu the middle of the farewell, it gave way, The old Jady was tumbled forward against the ricketty staging of the balcony, and it fell against the sct piece that mask- ed it from the audience. So Juliet, mother, baleony, and all toppled down on Romeo, and by the time he was extricated from the wreck he was as mournful a lover as the play makes him out to be. There is a rigid rule in the theatre against anyone lounging in the prom- ptor's corner but the ladies of the company have a charming fashion of violating it. They are continually slipping in to the forbidden space to get a glimpse at their lines in the prompt boak. They have their parts to consult, but there is a fascination about the prompter’s volume that is irresistible. Asits owner, however, is usually on good terms with all the fair mcinbers of {ho company, he don't object; unless putting his arm around the waist of one, or chuck nother under the chinin a familiar way can be construed into an obje tion. There i3 ab occasion upon which the prompter is an object of almost as much mterest as when he Las his book in his hand, and the people on tho stuge are listening for him. ~ That is wheu he posts a certain notics on the call-board, ‘The call-board is a species of bul- leting Jike the one used to cha'k scores on in old fashioned Lilliard saloous. it is suspended in the gr. rovm, On itjare pasted the calls to rehearsals, the casis of pieces to be rehearsed, and the weekly notices that sa'avies will bo paid on such and such a day. Then he is sutrounded by an in- terested group who ask him more questions in a breath than he could answer in an hour. Some of the male members of the company try to bribe the information out of his fa orite half and half. But he takes all he gets and gives up nothing, He fecls hisadvantaze and keops it. In fact, I never met u prompter yet who did not consider himself a far more importaut member of the company than the leading man, “*He may loom up big and showy,” says the prompter, “and raise "cain awiong the woisen, but where woula Le be without me, I want to know ? Iu a hole, sir. Yos, sir, and a mighty bad hole, too, many's the time.” The prompter's life is as laborious as ivis useful. His remuneration is THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: S.»\'l‘URDAY OCTOBER not of the most liberal sort, and to oke it out he doesthe copying of parts for the new picces athone, General- ly heisa widower, witha daughter who assists him, and whom he is bringing up to be a greater actress than Rachel. She goes into the theatre as a child, and grows up saturated with its unnatural views of life and its high-tlavor romance till she miarries the stage lover and has all the fiction worriod and beaten out of her, By the time she gets married hard work, age, and half-and-half have got into the prompter's eyes and v and make hiw unreliablo. does her best poor thing, to Iml’p him along, but her husband needs her salary as well as his own to aidin the claboration and sustentation of his sham elegance, and the little she can do is done at the expense of her stomach and back. Tinally when her apouse discovers whatshe is about he puts an end even to this poor apology foraid. “T'm not going to have my money wasted on that old soak,” he says. “If I ever catch you giving him again, Tl makehim smart forit, Virginia Pootry, Don’t put your arm around my neck; You'll rample all ny_ rufiles.
