TRENCHES IN WARFARE.
Tools the Soldiers Use to Burrow Into
the Ground.

Tools the Soldiers Use to Burrow Into
the Ground.
Trenches are imperative in land war
fare, and so consequently are tools for
digging. Therefore every soldier car
ries his own tools, with which he can
throw up some sort of defense, if it is
only six inches of earth, and which can
be enlarged. if necessary, into regu-
lar trench.
Curiously enough, the trenching tool
was the invention of an American en-
gineer, Brigadier General 81. w. Ben
ham Of the Army Of the Potomac. It
was twenty-five inches long and weigh
ed pound and half, and it is prac-
tically this same tool that is used to-
day, although. Of course, with modlh-
cations. The present model is usually
lighter, the best design being that used
by the Austrians. It is less than twen-
ty inches in length, the blade being
eight inches long by six inches wide,
one side having a cutting edge and
the other saw edge. A tool Of this
kind can be used by the soldier while
lying down, and few vigorous strokes
are enough to throw up some sort Of
temporary protection, which can easily
be enlarged If the position is to be
held.
Trenching drill is hated more than
anything else by the soldier in time Of
peace, but that same soldier acquires
positive love for his little spade after
he has once been under fire and so dis
covered for himself the salutary quail
tiles of little mound Of earth in front
Of him.
The soldier in good trench is abso-
lutely safe except from we'll aimed
shrapnel or from shells that happen to
burst in the trench itself, which, Of
course, is rare happening. Perhaps
it is worth noting that the advantages
Of the trench were discovered by Alex
ander the Great.-New York Post.
