in Flotow's opera, Martha" at the
Metropolitan Opera House last night,
dropped dead in front of the footlights
and almost in full view Of one Of the most
brilliant audiences that has filled the
theatre this winter.
Customary, whose magnificent bass
voice has thrilled thousands, was to sing
the part of Tristano, who is represented
as II weak old man. Near the end of the
second scene of the first act all the prin.
cipals, including Miss Marie Engle, Ed.
ward De Reszke and Signor ,Cremoni.
were on the stage. The chorus was
singing and dancing around Tristano,
when he fell to the floor.
Little attention was paid to this aud in
IL moment the singer arose to his feet and
his great voice could be heard above the
united chorus. In two minutes more
Customary darted towards table Mt one
side of the stage and took hold of it, The
curtain was shot down swiftly, and
just us it reached the stage Customary
fell to the floor with IL groan. Jean DE
Reszke, who was his lifelong friend,
seized the stricken singer in his arms.
Customary was unconscious and died in
IL few minutes.

Suicide Of Capt. McGiffin in New
York Yesterday,

New York, Feb. 1l.-Capt. Philo II.
McGiilin, II former officer of the Chinese
navy, who was in command of the bat.
tleship Chen Yueu at the battle of Yalu,
committed suicide this morning. Mt
o'clock ut the Post Graduate Hospital by
shooting himself through the head. He
WAS 81 years old.
Captain McGiflin had been at the hos
pitai about IL month under treatment for
nervous prostratiou. lie had, however,
fox some days past, been considered con.
,alescent, and it had been arranged to
place him in some quiet retreat in the
country until he should regain his nor
NAL health.
The Captain had improved mentally as
well as physically and it VAS deemed
needless to keep watch on him. He was
kept con1ined to his room most of the
time, however. He retired at 10 o'clock
last night. His attendant, IL male nurse,
named Barrett, marked nothing unu Usual
in his patients demeanOr.
At = O'Clock this morning Barrett was
startled by II pistol shot. lie FASTENED to
Captai's McGiffin's apartment and found
his patient sitting bolstered up in bed,
blood streaming from bullet hole in
the right side of the head, about two
inches above the ear. A large navy re-

another on the sable. The mystery is
how did the captain gain possession of
the pistols. He had been living in n
boarding house for several months and
had there become violently insane and
had been removed to the hospital, He was
only 81 years old
The terrific strain TO which he was sub
jcct during the fight os the Yalu was at
tributed as the cause of his mental break
down. In that battle both of his ear
drums were rupt,;red, his eyes perina
nently affected, and his head and body
silled with splintevs of wood work and
steel. He had left Il note on the table,
without date or address rs follows:
'Memo-Look alive that the bed is not
set on fire by my shot. My compliments
and adieus to all. regret that my des-
tination must remain TO you unknown
but you may geuss with apologies to
Phelps for the row. 1t is n WAY that all

tons of corporal punishment in London,
explains how rapidly hogging camo into
use in Boston:
The whipping post was speedily in
full force i'll Boston. At the session Of
the court held Nov. 80, 1890, one man
was sentenced to be whipped for steal

fowl Oh the Sabbath, another for swear.
ing, another for leaving boat with.
out pylott. Then we read of John
Pease that for "stryking his mother and
deryding her he shalbe whipt.''
Lying, swearing, taking false toll,
perjury, selling rum to the Indians-all
were punished by whipping. Pious re-
gard for the Sabbath was fiercely upheld
by the support of the whipping post. In
1913, Roger Scott. for repeated Sleep
ing on the Lords day" and for strik-
ing the person who walked him from his
goddess slumber, was sentenced to be Sc
verely whipped. Women were not
