WP rt a Nl DEATH FOR SLEEPING. Americans Fave One of the Tragedies of Warfare. I any Canadian soldier has been sentenced to death for sleeping on ; duty or if any British soldier has | beeti executed for any disgraceful of- | tence the fact has not received wide , publicity, so- that this feature of war's stern reality is first brought to i our attention in the American army. | It was announced some time ago that | an American soldier had been found been executed. A few days ago the announcement was made that four Américan soldiers had been court- martialed and condemned to death for sleeping on sentry duty. The civi- lian at first sight does not appreciate | the heinousness of this offence, for to | go to sleep in the middlé'of the night | seems an extremely natural thing to | do, On the other hand, to be drunk whe on sentry duty seems dis- graceful. Military law, hewever, | makes no distinction between being drunk when on sentry duty and being asleep. In either case it is held that the negleet of duty may expose bun- dreds, perhaps thousands, of men to death, and that one man's failure to be on the alert might result in a great military disaster. Gen: Pershing has sent the records of the court-martial to Washington, although he bad the power to order the men to be shot, and from this it is inférred that the unfortunate men will not be called ubon (o face a fr.

The New Yark Timea tells a story concerning a rather riotous Now York company at Camp Upton last summer. They were a raw draft and were sent to spend the first night in camp jn an isolated barracks. They were feeling jolly and meant to make a night of it despite the orders of the young second lieutenant who was in charge. of them. They disregarded his command for gilonce, and created a considerable disturbance. Finally the young officer ordered them to dress and fall in. Then he marched them out amid the mud and stumps and kept them tramping for three hours, At the end pf that time they were ready and willing to go to hed. Next day the captain called the men together and explained to them why between nine o'clock at night and re- vellle soldiers must sleep and per- mit others to sleep. He told them that if there were 150 'mén in bar- racks and 149 of them wanted fo talk, they must remain silent, so that the one man might sleep. "The rea- son is very simple)' he concluded, "for if a soldier misses sleep he's got to do without it, and if he bécomes sleepy and tries to make it up on sen- try duty be is shot." anction from mang 0 A Foulard of Simple Design. ceedingly fashionable and no end of dainty, frocks are designed in the best wearing of siiks.
