Old Custom Abolished.

The British army council has decid-
ed to abolish the old custom of crying
down credit" Under the kings regu-
lations, commanding officers, on arriv-
ing at new station, are required to
make proclamation warning tradespeo-
pie and others that a soldiers pay
cannot be stopped for a private debt
and that those who allow soldiers to
contract debts do so at their own risk
The custom in the old days often
gave rise to picturesque ceremony,
the commanding officer, accompanied
by a detachment Of his regiment and
the drums, reading the proclamation
in the market place. The last occa-
sion on which the ceremony was per-
formed was year or two ago. The
old proclamation is now to be re-
placed by newspaper advertisements.

as you can"
The horses were dashed into a gal
lop and the wife of the dying man
watched at the curb until the carriage
was out Of sight.
A few minutes before nine o'clock
the vehicle dashed up in front of the
hospital One of Kosharwskys friends
leaped out and ran into the receiving
Office. He told the clerk that there
was a man outside in a carriage who
needed an immediate operation.
One of the staff of surgeons went
out to the vehicle and on examining
the mans pulse found that he was
dead.
1.-THE man is dead" exclaimed the
doctor. I'VE had better notify the
police"
Refusing to believe the medical
mans word, the carriage with its dead
occupant was driven to the Hahne-
mann Medical college, about block
away. Here Dr. MacLean made an ex-
animation and for the second time
the man was pronounced dead.
Half an hour later the carriage with
the corpse in 1t stopped in front of
the Maxwell street police station just
one block from where Kosharwsky
lived. The four men who had ridden
with him in the race of death went
into the station and reported the mat

was then taken to the home of the de-

There was much surprise and no
Sterling stock company, when it was
announced that the star of the cast,
Miss Halliday, had been taken sud
denly i'll and that the part OF Iris"
would be given over to the mercies
OF substitute that night. Gerald
Morrison, who sustained the principal
male character of the play, was par
ticularly worried over the unfortunate
occurrence. He looked about him in
quisitively as he stepped upon the
dimly-lighted stage. The new leading
lady was not visible and the only
strange face he observed was that OF
a pretty young girl, who had appar-
emily been brought by some friend in
the company for peep behind the
scenes.
Ready for the first act!" cried the
stage manager, and Gerald was sur
prised to see, when the stage was
cleared that the strange young girl
remained He was about to go for
= lard and warn her that the rehearsal
Was to begin and that the leading lady
would want the stage to herself, when
he was amazed to hear her repeat in
rather nervous tones, the opening
lines assigned to Iris" The act pro-
ceeded and the girl became more
nervous as each new character ap-
peared, until when Gerald approached
her, she greeted him with trembling
voice and fearful eyes, instead Of the
gay flippancy assigned to the part. This
annoyed him and he spoke his lines
in rough, careless way that made
her almost forget hers. She glanced
at him appealingly and whispered:
please forgive me; I'll do better to-
night" Gerald left the theater in
anything but a pleasant mood. He
looked forward to all sorts of unpleas-
ant happenings during the evening
