Mexican Soldiers, Trick.

Many of the recruits of the Mexican
army are convicts who have been drafted
into military service, and consequently
desertions are very humorous. Some
times q rather humorous ingenuity is
shown in slipping out of bondage. In

ing to regiment drawn up at rail
road station waiting for the arrival of
the President, succeeded in getting
away by the device of placing their caps
on the butts of their musket, the bayo-
net driven in the ground at their places
in the ranks. By the uncertain torch
light the plattoons seemed unbroken,
and it was only when the order to march
was given and the regiment marched
away and left the cap-bearing muskets
standing scattered over the ground,
that the trick was discovered by the
officers.
