The warrant shall be made payable to the judge-advocate, who shall pay all the expenses of the trial when received by him. The process and sentences of said courts shall be executed by the sheriff of the province or of the city of Manila wherein said court is held, and the sheriff shall make return thereof to the officer issuing or imposing the same. If the sentence be a fine the sheriff shall collect the same in the manner as he is authorized to collect debts in civil cases, and he shall make return thereof twenty days after receiving the same to the officer issuing the warrant or process.
