This morning it will be invested with a garrison of bluecoats, and later on an enemy in brown will storm its walls, ald will will be no powder burned and no hand-to- hand conflicts, but st least the shadow of war, if not part of its substance, will for a time settle on the picturesque sentine! of brick and stone.

The squadron of cavalry was in command of Captain Rogers, Lieutenant Rutherford adjutant, and consisted of troops B, C, I and K, Fourth Cavalry, under Capia‘n Gale, Captain Lockett, Lieutenant Benson ana Lieutenant O'Neil. There was a review after the muster, in which all the troops passed in quick time, theu the cavalry and iight artillery passed at s trot and then the cavairy came down on the run. The cavalry looked finest as it swung past the reviewing stand at full gallop. After the review the infantry was mus- tered by Colonel Young, the ‘artillery by Colonel Williston and the cavalry by Capiain Rogers. A vew grand stand has been erected for the coming-athletic games, to which a small admission will be charged. The post field day will be held on April 7, and on Apnl 19 wil be the big department field day. THE TURNERS' FESTIVAL. An Entertalnment for the Benefit of the Athletes Who Will Go East fu May.

Transfers ard Changes in the Varicus Schools. There was talk at the meeting of the Board of Education last evening of ‘‘nig- gers in the fence” and cther matters that are supposed to refer to queer practices, and an acrimonious dialogue resulted. The matter under discussion was the matter of advertising for textbooks, an effort being made by Director Derham to have the matter referred to a committee. Director Waller said that there were al- be rescinded ; that Miss F. A. Gilmora_be tem- porarily ass:zned to the Washington Grammar cnool; that Miss M. A. Robinson be elected & regular tescher and assigned to the class in the Swett Grammar School for- merly taught by Miss F. A. Soule, retired; that Miss M. E. Donnelly be temporarilv transferred irom the Hearst Grammar School to the Pol technic High School in charge of the cl formerly taught by R. H: Webster: that A. J. Itsell be temporarily transferrcd from the Washington Grammar School to the Henrst Grammar School; that Miss Hattie B. Carr be assizned to the Monroe Primary School; that a new class be formed in the Noe Valiey, pro- vided accommodations can be provided by the Superintendent. Resolutions were adopted permitting Mrs. Alice Stoll and Miss Fannie L. Soule to retire as teachers of the department and to avail themselves of the annuity provided by law. A report frem Dr. James T. Smith and Charles F. McCarthy, who were recently appointed to conduct tests of the eyes of the public-school pupils was read. Thev stated that during March they made 1289 tests wi h the following result: 714 had normal vision, 228 were far-sighted, 103 were short-sighted, 194 astigmatic, 37 with squint, 13 were color blind. Of the 525 with defective sight but 27 wear proper correcting glasses. Petitions signed by improvement clubs and others requesting that new school- houses be erected were received from the following districis: Excelsior Homestead, Precita Valley, Mission Five-mile, Pre- sidio Heights, Sunnyside and Richmond. Ail were referred to the Committee on Buildines and Grounds. Evening substitute teachers were elected as follows: Miss Rebe V. McFeeley, Miss M. E. Mead, Mrs. M. J. Egan, Miss Emily P. Rhine. Probationary teachers were, on _the recommendation of the Qualification Com- mittee, elected regular teachers as follows: Miss Annie Quinn, Everett Grammar; Miss H. E. McLane, Garfield Primary; Miss M. Labaney, Columbia Grammar. Old Fort Winfield Scott, That Will Be the Scene of Mimic Warfare. e The Cavalry Troops Looked Best as They Swung Past the Reviewing Stand at Full Gallop. — and they 2nd the troops will solve 'it. Commanders were hard at work all yester- day preparing for the sclution, and a number of officers went out there in the rain and wind to look over the ground and prepare obstacles to the free passage of the besieging troops. The time set is this morning, provided the weather be favorable. The field of the problem wiil include the entire point, with the fort as the objective point. The troops at the Presidio, in- tantry, artillery snd cavalry, will be divided into two bodies, one in the uni- form of blue and the other in their brown working-clotbes. The creaking_ port shutters of the old brick pite will be. thrown open; the black muzzles of the old smoothbores wiil grin out through the walls, and sentries will challenge from rampart and sallyport. The men will be maneuvered according to secret instruc- tions issued to commanders, but with every one eise in ignorance of the plan of campaicn excent through their orders, and except that the old stronghola must be vaiiantly beld or bravely taken, according to what the seniors have decided would be best for the insiruction of the men. The problem is one very similar to those worked out on the hilis back of the army camp at Monterey last summer. Those he troops that it is the desire of Colonel Shafter, the post commander, to continue them at home. The besieging .of the peaceful old fort, whose garrison has been for years a lighthouse-keeper and whose portcullis .has been but a sign “No ad- mittance,” will be the first of these home problems in the noble art of war. The monthly muster and review was held yesterday morning, and there were close to a thousand men in line. In the absence of Colonel Shafter Lieutenant- Colonel £ B. M. Young was in command of the post, and Lieutenani-Uolonel Wil- iiston, Thira Artillery, commanded the brigade. Colonel Young was accompanied by his staff, con-isting of Major R. H. White, Captain Edie, Captain Frick, Cap- tain Stevens and Lieutenant. Roudiez. Colonel Willision was accompanied by Lieutenant Noble. There were in line a battalion of foot and one of hght artillery, a battalion of infantry and a equadron of cavalry. Cap- tain Smith commanded the foot artillery, with Lieutenant McNair as adjutant. T ere were batteries G and K, Third_Ar- tillery, commanded by ‘Lienienant Ran- dolph and Lieutenant Gardner. The infan- try battalion wus under Captain O'Con- hell, Licutenant Kilburn adjutant.

It s Being Built by Two Hodearriers | and Two Bricklayers. ‘The joy which lightened Dunbar alley and madethe gloomy Morgue as cheerful as a policeman on a pension over the an- nouncement that work on the new Hall of Justice would be vigorously prosecuted until the completion of the work nine months hence was shaded by the fact that only. two hodcarriers and two or three bricklzyers were at work yesterday on the edifice. i With this force as a starter, there is a saspicion that this beautiful building will be ready for business before the opening of the Paris Exposition. Several 10 cents a meal restaurant-keepers in the vicinity had gone 1o considerabls expense orders- ing a barrel of whitewash to beautify their places-ot business and to shed light on the path of the shyster, but when they observed the indecent haste with whicn the building is not being erected tney re- scinded the order and have postponed their whitewashing improvements for a. ear. Ttisa good thing; however, for the two hodcarriers, for their job will last them lor five years at least; ditto the brick- layers. * —————— Furnitare Moved. Estimates furnished.

MORTON SPECTAL DELIVERY. * 408 Taylor street and 650 Market street ways some people looking for “'a nigger in the fence,”’ because they did not under- stand matters under discussion. He stated that it was in order tp keen within the law that the bids werc necessary as s00n as possible. . Director Derham stated that he did think there was a nigger in the fence, but he failed to specify where the individual was located, and the motion to refer to the Classification Committee was sdopted. Thirty-six deputy census marshals were elected as follows: Herman Armer, Prescott, M. Koppel, Cleveland Carpenter, John Kinsella, J. J. Cardy, Frank M.

Meagher, Charles Hackmeir, Dav.d Short. ? Director Head siated that he had not been given any places on the census mar- shal’s s:aff and wanted to know why. It developed that his three names had come in late, and Director Waller stated that Director Head’s names would be cons ered. Director Armer took exception to a rule offered by the committee on rules provid- ing that 1o person shall be allowed a cer- tificate to teach in the public schools un- less an examination has first been passed before the City Board of Examiners. He said it was a direct <lap at the high and | normal schools, and also at the State Uni- | versity. There were hundreds of girls, he said, graduates of the normal schools, who were ready and able to take classes. “Any one,” he szid, “can answer a few questions asked by this board, and then with a pull, which they must’ have, get into the department.”” The rale: 3 well enough as they were, and should be let alone. $ % Director Gallagher said that the com- mitee had no intention. of shutting dut the Normal Schoo! graduates, and that if the girls mentioned were competent they should not hesitate to go before the Board of Examiners .n;'? ss the examination. Buperintendent bster expressed him- sef in favor of the rule, and it was adopted. . Recommendations of the Commitee on Classification were adopted as follows: That Mias Sarah Gumar of Irving Primary Bchool be transferred to the nnlllflnod list; that Miss Kate A. Kollmer be sssigned 10 the chnrge of the class left vacant by Miss Gu- mar’s transfer; that action on the transfer of Mrs. J. D, Cooper and Miss H, B..
