Manitoba Morning Free Press - Tuesday, June 18, 1895
London, June 17 — All manner of stories are circulated about the prison life of Oscar Wilde, including persistant reports that he is in a state of mental and physical collapse. The fact is that he is perfectly sound in mind and body. At first he suffered acutely, while Taylor took his sentence as cooly as an old hand. Wilde was terribly cast down and was in a state of semi-collapse in his cell at Newgate prior to his transfer to Pentonville. There he rapidly recovered and something of the jaunty and rather defiant demeanor which he displayed at his first trial re-appeared. He to all appearances is reconciled to his fate. His condition is, he gives little trouble and abides by the rules, which become less irksome in consequence.
Le Siècle of Paris, says that a few days previous to the Queensberry suit Oscar Wilde had completed a new comedy entitled "Friends." The Italian actor Ermette Saccone, has just purchased the right of representation and will introduce the comedy before a Milan audience at the commencement of the autumn session. A well known Italian dramatist has consented to undertake the translation. Three of Wildes plays are now being performed in England.
