In the midst of danger soldiers are
sometimes prone to jest and laugh, and
even play practical Jokes on each other,
as the following anecdotes will show:
During the trench work before Sebasto'
pol there was certain man IN the regi-
ment who disliked being on duty in the
trenches, aud who always got into what
he considered the safest corner of the
trench, and remained there as long as
he could. The bugler OF his company,
a malicious urchin, soon found this out,
and was constantly in the habit of play
ing tricks to frighten his cautious CON-
rade. He would peep over the parapet
and call ont, "a shot !" and then turn
round to see his friend ,oll himself to-
gether like a ball. At other times he
would call out, Ca shell !" of which he
knew the man had mortal dread; and
when be saw him throw himself fat on
the ground, Le would take piece Of
earth or stone and throw it c'ose to his
re c1mbent friends head, and then run
up ard ,mfo,t him by showing him a
bit of old shell, which be had picked up
for the purpose, rena1ki 6 at tho some
time:
"That was O near thing, man."
All the men knew aud eoj 'yel the
Joke, aud eome times roa1ed with laugh
ter; but it was we'll for the urchin that
his friend never found Linn out. This
same man was really wouuded ed attcrward,
and while the bullet was being removed
from beneath the skin OF his back the
same urchin was standing by, and the
nom ent the bullet was extrocted-a
small spherical one-the boy held out to
his friend a six-pound cannon ball, say
ing:
