More recruits are being prepared at the Presidio for transportation to Manila. The Puebla will sail to-day with 650. The War- ren will leave on September 1 with 1200 and the Columbia will leave about Sep- tember 5 with 800 more. This will practi- cally clean cut the camp of casuals now at the Presidio, and it will probably in- clude one regiment of the four now on way here from the East. The first of these is expected here in two or three days, and the others will not be long in following. It was the intention to keep them here for a month anyway and drill them in open order tactics and on the rifle ranges, but it may be that part of them will be sent out on one of the three trans- ports. Dr. John J. Gilhuley, who has for some time been connected with the general hos- pital at the Presidio, will go out with the Warren as surgeon in charge. He has been looking for some time for a chance to get to Manila, and he says if he can make the trade with one of the surgeons down there he will leave the ship when she arrives and will remain with the hospital service of the Eighth Army Corps. A retiring_board met in the headquar- ers yesterday to pass upon the mental pacity of Assistant Surgeon 1. P. Ware. ptain Ware has been On the sick list ever since he attended the smallpox pa- tient quarantinued at the Presidio some months ago, and for a long time he has been unable to attend to his duties. The retiring board consists of Major General W. R. Shafter, president; Colonel J. B. Babcock, adjutant general; Colonel Mor- decal, ordnance department; Colonel For- waood, chief surgeon, and Major Raymond, surgeon, - The name of Colonel Parker of the Twenty-second Infantry was also be- fore the board. ; Troop K of the Sixth Cavalry has been ordered to the Presidio from Fort Riley Kansas. It will take the place of Troop | ¥. Part of Troop ¥ has been on patrol duty at Yosemite National Park for a | month past, and yesterday the remainder of the troop left ?nr the same place. The men of the Colorado regitment turned over their arms to the post ord- nance officer yesterday. There now re- mains for the regiment but to await the action of the mustering out officers upon the regiment's papers, and then for the men to settle their accounts and leave for home. A special train will take them back to Denver. In a circular from headquarters atten- tion is called to the fact that the names of all legally qualified enlisted men who desire to appear before a board of officers for examination for appolntment as sec- ond lieutenants in the army, must be at once reported to headquarters. The ex- aminations are held in the fall of every year. ¥ Ciptain Willlam Lassiter, Sixteenth In- fantry, has been assigned to temporary duty with Colonel Jocelyn, the mustering- out officer. Acting Assistant Surgeon R. M. Bonar has been assigned to duty at the general hospital at the Presidlo. A similar order is out for acting Assistant Surgeon W. R. Van Tuyl.

FATHER UISUN, Aug. 28.—The reception ten- dered to Father W. D. McKinnon, | chaplain of the First California Regiment, just returned from the Philippine Isiands, was an event | |long to be remembered by the residents of Sulsun and this part of Solano County. | Although the time for preparation was short the ladies of the Red Cross Soctety, alded by the firemen and citizens, worked | with an energy and zeal tbat produced wonderful results, and the chaplain was | accorded a welcome that was spontaneous | and enthusiastic. All day long busy hands | were at work making preparations for the reception. Decorations of red, white and | blue flags, streamers, vari-colored lan- terns, etc., were placed in positions, many | of the business houses being decorated in | an elaborate manner. | A handsome arch was erected in the | {;lnzn. which was a mass of star-spangled anners, surmounted by a well-executed | ortrait of Father McKinnon and lighted ' v a large number of electric lights, pre- | senting a brilliant spectacle. When the | evening train arrived a vast throng was | assembled at the depot to welcome the re- turning chaplain, and when he alighted from the train he was received with huz- zas and cheers of welcome. A procession lwas formed, consisting of some sixty mounted horsemen, a brass band, car- riages filled with members of the Red Cross Soclety, town officers, members of the press and a long line of firemen and citizens on foot.
