Curious Custom Observed In an Ola
London Churchyard.

London Churchyard.
the-way London churchyard one OF
those ancient customs. the observance
OF which gave so much delight to
Charles Dickens, and whose descrip-
tion OF which has done SO much to
endear to all who read the right little,
tight little island. Twenty-one ladies'.
either past the age of self-support or
unable by reason Of disease to make q
living Cor themselves, have gathered
for centuries in this same churchyard.
on the same day, to receive the same
gifts from the benefcence of the same
lady, now, Of course, long since dead.
Priory Church of st. Bartholomew the
Great is well worth visit from the
tourist In search of that which is an
cient. Hidden away behind the great
postofice building of st. Martin's-le-
Grand, next door to the old hospital
tnat bears its patrons name, and
within few yards of the quaint court
yard where the bluecoat boys, hatless
and in yellow stockings, play their
games. Founded in 1923, 1t still re-
ta1ns its heavy Norman pillars and
rounded arches, which have been care
fully restored where the stone has
crumbled through centuries of decay.
Its narrow churchyard is bordered on
two sides by houses which have exag-
gerated their architectural tendency to
overhang. The gravestones are so old
that most of the inscriptions are worn
on, and they are only to be reached by
climbing sort of portable stage coach
ladder from the pathway. Here gather
on the appointed morning the twenty
one old ladies, for, as rule, they are
old, and very old. The distribution of
sixpences, hotcross buns, shawls and
two-shilling pieces takes place in ac-
cordance with legendary custom after
morning service. 1t is not quite GER
tain to few centuries when the thing
was first started, but it has been go
Ing on now for several hundred years.
Inc onlookers, as a rule, are few
rresh-complexioned nurses in pretty
bonnets and cloaks, and half a dozen
residents Of Little Britain. After Rev.
Sir Borradaile Savory, the present rec
tor OF "St. Bart" has conducted morn
ing prayers, the twenty-one aged
danes mount the stage coach ladder
and make their way to the particular
gravestone on which the twenty-one
new sixpences lie, and each old lady.
having picked up her sixpence is then
presented with the fiorin, the bun and
the crochet shawl.

Trolleys in Pckin.

1t is likely that there will be troll
ley road in Pekin and another in Seoul,
Corea, before there is one in London.
track is already laid in Seoul and the
cars have been shipped. 1t was ex-
pected that the road would be put in
operation by the 1st of June, and it is
probably running now, unless some
thing has happened to delay matters.
Work was commenced on the track in
Pekin about the 1st of January. The
rails had arrived and also the ties,
which were brought all the way FROM
Oregon. The cars had been ordered
and the power house was in course of
erection. The line of the Pekin road
will be quite circuitous and traverse
nearly all of the principal streets of the
city. All the material for both these
roads comes from the United States
