Tho firing party were evidently bad shots, for the volley failed to kill him, and the unfortunate man _ writhed about pressing his hands to his chest. A sergeant was ordered to give him the coup de grace, but his hand trem- bled, and the revolven shot merely fractured the victim's Jaw, and a sec- ond shot had to be fired. Two of the firing party fainted with horror, and the efiect on the battalion which was drawn up to witness the execu- tion can only be described as deplor- able. Tne man who was shot was a Ger- mau who had earned a reputation as u good soidier. He wag a great favor- ite with his comrades, and he leaves a widow and child. His crime wus the killing of a ser- geant and corporal while drunk. It is possible that the firing party were unnerved by his nonchalant be- havior before his exccution, for he chatted gaily to the chaplain, refused to be blindfolded, and bade the sol- diers fire at his heart.--London Bx- press.

But the statistics of Greek immigration to New York for the quarter ending Jan. 1, 1902, showed only 46 Greek girls and women, and there are now fewer than 100 of them in New York as against 10.000 male Greeks. In no other New York colony out- side of the Chinese does such a dis- parity between the two sexes exist, but an explanation for it is found at home. Greece is one of the few Euro- pean counitries in which there is a antae excess of male inhabitants.
