8 THE SAN FRANCGISCO CALL, MONDAY, JANUARY 3, 1898. - NOTES OF THE - NATIONAL GUARD Now for Close Attendance at Drills by Guards- men, A Vacancy in the Fifth Regi- ment of Infantry—Work for Regiments. Contracts for Uniforms Have Been Forwarded—Report on Vessels for the Naval Militia. The month's freedom from drills which the National Guardsmen have enjoyed has come to a close, and from now on they will be required to attend to drills, and if they do not and no good reason is shown, the officers at general headquart will want to know the reason wh It is likely that the provisions of the Political Code as | to non-attendance at drills will be en- forced. On New Year's eve there was a atch night” at the Regimental and the E street armories by such of the soldier boys who were not out on Market street watching the old year out and the new one in. At the Ellis- street Armory Companies C and G, as usual, had a collation and singing, be- ing merry at the close of the old and the beginning of the new year. AT HEADQUARTERS. The resignation of Lieutenant John Bradbury as aid de camp on the staff of the commander-in-chief having been accepted, J. R. Howell of this city | was appointed to the vacancy and he has accepted. Major J. A. Huber has been ap- pointed commissary on the division staff with the rank of lieutenant- colonel, vice lieutenant-colonel Thomas M. Cluff, promoted colonel and pay- master on the staff. William E. Smith has been elected captain, J. J. Estep first lieutenant and E Reynolds second lieutenant of Company H of the Second Infantry. John F. Ducy has been elected cap- tain and J. A. McMartin first lieu- tenant of Company E, Second In- fantry. Captain Henry U. pany F has been commissioned com- missary of the Second Infantry. Charles F. Butts has b ferred from the engineer the second division of Militis Charles H. Manville of Company B of the Second Infantry and rthur B. Case of Company I of the Seventh In- fantry have applied for exempt cer- tificates. THE SECOND BRIGADE. First Lieutenant John H. Hendy, who was quartermaster of the Fifth Infantry, having been tendered the position of engineer officer on the brigade staff, has accepted and ten- dered his resignation as an officer of the Fifth. He succeeds Charles H. Murphy, promoted to the division staff, and will rank as major. The board of officers of Regiment of Infantry will meet on the second Thursday in the month for the purpose of laying out work for the current year, arrange for company shoots and also discuss the proposed entertainment to be given in aid of the rifie range fund. During the month of December there were discharged from the Fifth In- fantry ni men, for the following reasons: Expiration of term of service four and removal five. Sergeant J. F. Hintermeyer of Com- pany F of the Fifth Infantry has been ion to the Naval appointed first sergeant of the com- | any. nAt) the recent election held by Com- pany B of the Fifth Infantry, located at San Jose, First Sergeant de Yoe was elected first lieutenant, vice Adel, promoted commissary of the regiment, | and Sergeant Munn was elected sec- ond lieutenant, vice Walter T. Searle, resigned. - Colonel Fairbanks, commanding the Fifth Infantry, has called a meeting of the bcard of officers of the regi- ment for this montk for the purpose of laying out a system of drills, to arrange a uniform system of rifle prac- tice outside of the State shoots which take place in January and May, So that the shooting will be conducted in-accordance with the new firing reg- ulations. will be for the advancement of the regiment will be brought up and dis- cussed. The several companies of the Fifth Infantry will make arrangements for the State shoot for January. The reception and ball that was given last Friday night by Company F of the Fifth Infantry in its armory in Oakland was a very successful af- fair, and there was a large number of the friends of the members of the com- pany in attendance. THE UNIFORMS. On last Thursday the uniform board sent on to the Pettibone Company the contract for the making of the uni- forms for the organizations outside of the naval militia, and on the following day the contracts for the uniforms for the naval branch of the guard were forwarded. The president of the board stated that the contracts are so drawn up that the contractors will have to comply with the most minute details of the specifications, and that unless all the spe ations are com- plied with the goods will not be ac- cepted. As yet there is no informa- tion as to the time when the new uni- forms may be expected. TROOP A, CAVALRY. No_election has yet been ordered to fill the vacancy existing in Troop A, cavalry, caused by the dismissal from the service of Charles A. Jenks as cap- tain of the company. Lieutenant Bur- nett will be a candidate for promo- tion, but it is doubtful if he will se- cure the position he would wish to fill For opponents he has Major Jansen, at present inspector of the Second Brigade, and Lieutenant Colonel Den- nis Geary (on the retired list) of the mustered out Second Artillery. The last two named each has a war reec- ord, and the major has a good repu- tation as a first-class cavalry officer. NAVAL MILITIA. Louis H. Turner, commanding the Naval Militia, visited Mare Island last week and made another inspection of the Marion and of the Pinta, prepared a report upon each vessel, and has for- warded the same to the proper au- thorities. It js probable that not many days will pass away before the Marion will be towed to this port and will be turned over to the first and second di- wvisions of the militia for their use. Barry Urged for Office. There is quite a_local movement in favor of James H Barry for Railroad Commissioner in piace of the late Dr. . James L Stanton. His friends in labor circles as well as many business men favor the nomination, because Barry is well known as a lepder of the prole- tariat, yet he also has a wide and favor- a?l:he gilé;lnllnce with the business men thu seen on the matter yesterday Prindle of Com- | trans- | the First | A number of matters that | “It is strange that I am Mr. Barry said: offices when 1 mentioned_ for so many have refused two or three and when I am a candidate for none.

OAKLAND, Jan. 2.—The members of the Central Christian Church were called upon yesterday to vote on the extension of a call to Dr. Edwards Davis. The vote was unanimous. At the end of the third year the pastor resigned within viev: of entering the evangelisfic field. But the new call his fourth year with the church. At the beginning of his pastorate the brethren numbered but fifty; since then the membership has in- creased to five times that number. Over $5000 has been extended in sus- taining the work. In his acceptance of the call Dr. Davis said: Our beginnifg is past. Much of our time hitherto has been consumed perfecting our organization. Our growth, though rapid, has been gradual. This body of ) members, because of your har- , may expect to remove mountains. aith be our power. It is my pur- pose to see you housed for worship and | work in one of the most commodious audi- toriums within this city within a few months. Our plans as to this will be | presented immediately. Your invariable co-operation heretofore makes me antici- pa’ your support now in this strategic | undertaking. Our work must be aggres- sive. We must accomplish something for the masses of the city. Oakland needs a people’s church, which it has not now—a church where the common people can hear God's word gladly. THE REGULAR | ARMY NOTES Citizens No Longer Barred From Crossing the Presidio to Fort Winfield Scott. | i | Reports Which Show What the Pre- sidio Light Batteries Did With Shot and Shrapnel. According to orders Monday, the 3d inst., was the last of the holiday sea- | son at the military posts in the De- | | partment of California, and after that date it was work again with the rou- tine of drills, guard mount and all { is such that he has decided to begln' i | | that there is in the school of the sol- | | dier. | While the soldiers were resting the civilians who work for the military | branch of the Government did not en- joy the ten days’ exemption from labor | that was accorded to the soldiers, but they were engaged in the delivering at the Fort Point fortifications of cast- ings and other materials to be used in | the mounting of the heavy guns | there, and even New Year's day was not a holiday for them, for on that day some of the heavy castings drawn by | sixteen-horse teams were being deliv- ered. | The order that several months ago was issued to the effect that those who | were not connected with the military service or in the employ of the mili- tary authorities would not be permit- ted to approach within a mile of any of the fortifications has been modified. Under that rule no one, unless “for miltary reasons,” could cross the Pre- | sidio and walk to or around Fort | Winfield Scott at Fort Point, but now that has been so modified that citi- | zens may approach that old model of defense, and the guards that were | posted within a mile of the fortifica- | tions have been withdrawn and are snow placed within 500 yards of the big guns. The result of the elementary battery service and competitive target prac- tice held at Redwood City during the and F, of the Third Artillery, with 3.2- breech-loading field rifles, has been announced. The charges used were 3.5-pound sphero (U. F.) powder and | the projectiles were percussion shell | and shrapnel of 13.5 pounds weight. At elementary practice each battery fired forty-three rounds, twenty-seven with sheli and sixteen with shrapnel | and 2131 and 2112 range. C Battery | had ten and F six defective shrapnel. | The target was a vertical canvas ten | by twenty yards. C is credited with 325 hits and F with 620. At Dbattery service practice each fired sixty-four rounds, the former { with forty-one shell and the latter with forty. The ranges were 2156 and 2084. C had seventeen and F eleven defective shrapnel. C made 228 hit: and F 414, At competitive practice C fired forty-five rounds and F forty-two, the ter nine. The mean range was, 2216.6 | total of targets 144; hits, C, 452; il.’(3 dummies disabled: C, 86, and F, 55. C had twenty-six defective shrap- nel and F fifty-five. The competitive practice equals for Battery C 69.8 per ; cent of possible or first-class practice, and. for Battery F 53.6. | Rev. J. H. Macomber, chaplain, on duty at Anget Island, will on the 13th of February, 1900, be retired for age. He entered the volunteer army Aug- | ust 12, 1862, passed through the grades and was mustered out in August, 1865, with the rank of captain. He was wounded at Cold Harbor and also at Petersburg. During thirty years of service in the ministry he never was absent on sick leave. There will be a vacancy in the Third Artillery on the 10th of next month by the retirement of Captain James Chester. The military information division of the War Department has published an interesting document on the sub- ject of “Subsistence and Messing in the European Armies,” which are sep- arate papers compiled by officers of | lation to the armies of Austria, Bel- gium, England, France, Germany, Holldnd, Ttaly and Switzerland. | TELLTALE GREENBACKS. Maggie Stevens Charged With Robbing William Looker, a Stranger.

Policeman Brophy arrested her. ‘When searched by the matron at the prison, two $50 notes and a $20 note were found concealed in her stockings. They were held as evidence against her.

Attinger and Schwacke Win in a Bowling Match for Fifty Dollars. California Schuetzen Club and Verein Eintracht Hold Monthly Contests. The California Schuetzen Club and the Verein Eintracht held their opening medal shoots for the year 1898 at the California Schuetzen Club's range at Schuetzen Park, near San Rafael, yes- terday. The light on the targets was changeable and resulted in the scores being hardly up to the average. Be- sides the pouring of lead into the tar- gets, the bowling alley was a center of interest, and crack bowlers held sway throughout the afternooa. The Verein Eintracht members shot poorly, but the Schuetzen Club's scores were better. The following scores were made by the members of the Verein Eintracht in the first regular monthly medal shoot for the year 1898: Champion class—First prize, Captain F. A. Kuhls, 388 rings. First class—Joseph Rohrer, 310 rings. Second class—H. Schieger, 203 rings. First best shot—C. Schroeder, 22 best shot, C. Ehlinger, 23. \ This Monday evening the members of the Verein Eintracht will award the medals for the year 1897 to the cham- pions whose scores have been the high- est in their several classes for the year just ended. The exercises will be of an interesting order and will take place at Eintracht Hall, 237 Twelfth street. The following well-known marksmen were the successful contestants who last | will receive the reward of their year's labor to-night: First champion medal—Captain F. A. Kubhls. Second Binner.

Several Burglaries Reported and an Attorney’s Pocket Picked at the Chutes. Criminals were not behind other people in celebrating New Year's in their own peculiar way, as the reports received at police headquarters Satur- day and yesterday indicated. About 3 o'clock yesterday morning Robert Clifford, a sailor, was on his way to the Sailors’ Home, and at the corner of Main and Market streets a footpad knocked him down and robbed him of an open-face sflver watch and $2 80 which he had in his pockets. He | notified Policeman H. O'Day of the robbery, and an hour later O'Day and Policeman Staples arrested Owen Arm- strong, a sailor, and he was identified by Clifford as the man who robbed him. Armstrong was taken to the City Pris- on and booked on the charge of rob- bery. Alfred Dougherty, 413 First street, was found about 1 o'clock yesterday morning on First and Folsom streets | bleeding from a deep wound in his scalp. He was taken to the Receiving ! Hospital, and the wound was dressed. | As he was not in a condition to take | care of himself he was locked up in the | City Prison. Yesterday morning he re- | ported to the police that two men had struck him on the head with some | blunt instrument and had robbed him of 25 cents, all the money that he had. | He was unable to give a description of | the men. Burglars were also busy Friday and | Saturday nights. The residence of Mor- | ris Marcuse, 2409 Washington street, | | was entered by forcing open a rear | window with a “jimmy.” The burg- | lars succeeded in getting away with a | quantity of jewelry, but they had been | apparently disturbed, as several arti- cles, which had been gathered together, | | were left behind. T. C. Martin’'s resi- | dence, 1220 Alabama street, was also entered and several valuable articles of jewelry stolen. Among the articles | were a diamond ring, a gold bracelet, a | pair of earrings and a gold watch and | chain. The residence of W. L. Ashe, | 1005 Leavenworth street, was entered | during the absence of the family Sat- urday afternoon, but the burglars had been scared away, as, although they | had left evidence of the fact that they | had been there, nothing was apparent- | 1y missing. | Attorney Julius F. Fassett was at | the Chutes Saturday night, and a| clever pickpocket deftly extracted his pocket-book from his pocket, which | contained some valuable papers and | about $4 in coin. He reported the mat- ter at police headquarters yesterday | morning, and said he did not care so | much for the loss of the money as the | papers. | —_— Died From Liquor. Henry F. Plerson, who was arrested | on Sacramento street on last Sunday | | while intoxicated, died at the Receiving | | Hospital vesterday from the effects of | the liquor. The Coroner’s office was no- tified and the body was removed to the | Morgue, where an inquest will be held.
