Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The order appealed from should be modified by striking out the words "$io costs," in the last paragraph of said order, and in lieu thereof inserting the words "trial fee, term fee, and witness fees, to be taxed by the clerk, and $10 costs of motion"; and, as thus modified, the order should be affirmed, without costs to either party on this appeal.
