A FOOLISH PRACTICAL JOKE
Press Association. CnRisTCHURCH, May 7. The officer commanding the volunteer district has issued a strong order condemning the conduct of certain volunteers at Easter in uncoupling a train between a waggon and a car and making a rope fast to the seat of a waggon on the train and to fruit cases on the platform. Apart from the question of inconvenience and possible serious accident such conduct on the part of volunteers was a discredit to the whole force. The officers commanding the battalion and companies have been directed to prosecute inquiries with a view to bringing a charge against the offenders.
