4 Sad Erent-A German .1rmy Institution.
sad event, which has just happened at
Prenzlau, directs attention to one of the
peculiar institutions of the German army.
captain in the sixty fourth Prussian regi-
ment had, it appears, been for some time
paying marked attention to the young wife
of the lieutenant and adjutant to the regi-
ment, and had allowed himself to speak
publicly in cynical manner of his intimacy
with her. Some of the remarks having been
repeated by his brother officer to the hus-
band, the latter laid it before the court of
honor of his reg iment, and with the sanction
of the tribunal duel between the officers
was arranged. The lieutenant being the in
jured man and challenger, demanded that
the duel should be fought with pistols, the
first shots to be fired at fifteen PAGES dis.
lance, the opponents being then at liberty to
advance to within five PAGES of one another,
and the firing to be continued until one or
other of the opponents should be SO severely
wounded as to be unable to fire any longer.
The meeting took place in an open space in
wood near the town. AT the first exchange
of shots the bullet of the lieutenant grazed
but did not seriously injure the captain, and
at the fourth round the latter shot lis ad-
versary through the right lung and heart.
The corpse of the lieutenant was taken to
Angermunde, where the usual inquest was
held, and thence to Prenzlau, where the de-
ceased officer, who was only 20 years of age,
was buried with military honors. In an
order published by the commander of the
regiment it was announced that Lieut.. W.
had died suddenly and blamelessy. His
character, talents, amiability and devotion to
the royal service were eulogized, and the
grief of his brother officers at losing SO ad-
mirable comrade was feelingly expressed.
