capital act Of misconduct, You must

Doctor was on hand, very much more

Doctor. OFF went the vest, but there

the Doctor. Why said the great

The Incaiide Russo announces that
the Russian Ministry of War is at
present engaged. upon the elaboration
Of plans Of important military reforms,
which it is proposed to carry into effect
immediately after the return of the
troops from Turkey. These plans con
template the reorganization of the
whole Russian army. The battalions
of the infantry regiments, which have
hitherto been made up Of from 800 to
~ 700 men, will henceforward be made
to d strengthen 1900. Every cavalry
regiment is to DO increased by two
squadrons. The effect Of these chan
ges will be to add to the active army
fully 100000 corpbatants. The reserve
cnares, which is distributed into TWEEN
ty-four divisions, will be kept under
arms in time of peace, This will Sc
cure an additional force Of about 250,-
600 men ready at any moment to take
the field. lit is further proposed to in
crease tho yearly contingent recruits by
10000. The artillery is to be re.
armed with guns of superior manufac-
ture and greater range than tho pres
ent weapons. The peace establishment
Of the reserve artillery will consist OF
twenty-four brigades, Finally, the
period of military service will be re-
duced to three years. "All this,

THE CITY.s FREEDOM.

The freedom of the city Of London,
which formed the most important Incl
dent in the grand municipal reception
of Lords Beaconsfeld and Salisbury, is
regarded in England ms one of the
highest compliments which can be paid
a public man. II is conferred by that
part of the British metropolis called
''The City," which has its own NUM-
cipal government, and is under the
Jurisdiction Of the lord mayor. The
ceremony is impressive and an accord
with ancient usage. In the first place
the corporation tenders the privilege,
and invites the person on whom it is
to be conferred to appear before the
city chamberlain and received his for.
NAL permission. The future freeman's
name and those of civic officials who
vouch for his worthiness, are next re-
corded in book reserved for the pur-
pose. The chamberlain then admins
ters an oath Of fidelity and gives the
freeman gold box containing the
parchment document, vouching for his
citizenship. The privileges thus con
ferred have ceased to possess practical
value, especially TO the public mon who
are accorded them. Tho freeman at
once becomes part of "thc city" in its
corporate capacity, and his children
dwelling within seven miles of the city
share in tho privilege. He may en-
gago in retail trade without paying
certain dues, and if his children be
come orphans they may become wards
in the city. Among the distinguished
persons who have been invested with
civic freedom were General Bucher,
Napoleon III. and tho late Sultan
Abdul Aziz. Last year the honor was
conferred on ex-President Grant. s.
