The Servian Army

A cnricras thing connected with tbe Servían army is the manner in -which nearly all the regiments carry the big drum. Instead of beiug slurig in front of the man who plays it this instrument is put ■ upon a sniall two wheel cart drawn by a large dog, the latter being so trained that he keeps his place even through the longest tnarches. The drummer walks beliind the eart and performs on the instrument as it goes along. Each regiment has two or three drums, but scarcely any of the regiments have a band.
