DIG THEIR OWN GRAVES.
English Army Methods In the Exeeu
ton of Condemned Spies.


ton Of Condemned Spies.
The ceremony of disposing Of con
demned spy in the English army al
ways follows a definite precedent.
The unfortunate man is surrounded
by a detachment of infantry, and after
he is provided with Il pick and shovel
he is marched off to a selected spot
and ordered to dig his own grave.
This done. the tools are taken from
him and his eyes are bandaged. The
attending chaplain reads portions Sc
lected from the burial service, and
from the ranks of the escort twelve
men are selected at random by the
officer in charge.
These men. having stacked their own
rifles. are led to where twelve other
rifles are awaiting them. six of which
are loaded with blank cartridges. One
Of these is handed to each man. so
that 40 one knows whether the rifle
he holds contains a bullet or not. and
none can say for certain that the shot
fred by him killed the prisoner. The
firing party then marches to ar ap
pointed position. The commands Pre-
sent!" Fire" are given. and almost
before the last word rings out the
vclley is fired and the spy falls into
the grave he has dug.
Nearly every man is more or less af-
fected on being selected to form one
of the firing party. and many men
have been known to faint away on be-
Ing singled out. while others are so
overcome aS to no scarcely ahla to
pull the triggers of their rifles.

sound waves to enter the mouth and

The third cause Is referable to alta

like the animals. was urged to action
by the fundamental instincts, self
preservation and race preservation.
His two aims were to secure food and
avoid or destroy enemies. Like the
animals. when his attention was at

in the attitude for instant defense, at
