Hosmer has been appointed | inspector on the division staff, National | Guard of California, with the rank of lieu- | tenant colonel, vice Dohrmann, promoted. | | Captain C. L. Hewes, who resigned fiom | the office of commander of the sigual | corps, Second Brigade, has been appoint- | ed 1, with the rank of major, on the di- | vision staff, vice Fitzgerald, resigned. Major Margo has at his own request been relieved of the duties of commissary, | and Captamn J. F. Eggert of the First In- fantry has been assigned to perform the | | duties of commissary. | . Lieutenant Morrison, junior grade, has | been promoted lieutenant of the First | Division of the Naval Militia; Ensign Pe- | terson has been promoted lieutenant ju- | nior_grade, vice Dennis, resigned, and | Petty Officer Smith has been promotéd en- | sign, vice Peterson, advanced. | | _The officers who were elected in the | | First Infantry last Wednesday night will | all have to appear before the examining | board, and it will be close to the end of | | the month before. the thirty-six examina- tions are completed. When that shall bave been concluded there will be a call for the election of field officers for that | regiment. Up to the present time no ona | has been named for colonel except Lieu- | tenant Colonel Duboce. already : nounced, he has not declared himsalt & candidate for the position and will a cept only if it is tendered him by the of- ficers of the regiment. Na one has yet been suggested for the position of lieutcn- ant colonel, and only one has been named so far for major, and that is_Captain | Cunningham, late’of Company K. It is probable, however, that in the course ot a week a number of avallables will pre- sent themselves for positions under | | colonel. Iwenty-two men were discharged from Fifth Infantry on the 27th of Febru- ary—ten on account of removal, two by a two-thirds vote of the company, one at expiration of term of service and nine for | the good of the service. The following appointments in the Fifth | have been announced: Sergeant Erwin E. Frost, Company B, to be first sergeant, “vice Derby, elected first lieutenant; Cor- oral Arthur R. McClay, Company B, to | e sergeant, vice Holtum, elected second | lleutenant; Corporal Leonard M. Farrell, | Company ‘B, to be sergeant, vice Frost, | promoted; Private Walter D.

Hoxie, Company D, to be corporal, vice Shaver, reduced to the ranks as private. When Major Jansen, who was recently | elected captain of Troop A Cavalry, Sec- | ond Brigade; assumes command in a few | | days one of the first things he will do will | be to improve the appearance of the men. | He will have in the armory an imitation | vaulting horse, such as he recommended more than three years ago, and which last year was adopted in 'the regular army. By the use of this the men will be | drilled in mounting and_dismounting and | made to understand how to sit on a| horse. The major, who will resign from | | the retired list as soon as he assumes | command of the troop, while on a Buro- pean tour studied the cavalry branch of | the service in the armies of England, | Prance, Germany, Belgium and Italy. He has been connected with the National | Guard of California since 1868, when he | enlisted as a private, and has risen in various grades, becoming second lieuten- ant and first lieutenant of Company H of | the First, then was chosen captain of | Company D and was re-elected three times.

SHOEING HORSES FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT The Question Fully Discussed Before the Commissioners, but No Action Taken. A number of horseshoers attended the meeting of the Fire Commissioners yes- ‘terday morning to give thelr views on the question as to whether the contract for shoeing the department horses should be glven as heretofore to one man or divided among several. In the latter case the city would be divided into districts and the lowest bid in each district would be accepted. The speakers were E. M. Graney (who has the present contract), T. J. Crowley and T. F. McGee. A communication was also read from the Journeymen Horseshoers’ Union ask- ing that the work be distributed among the union labor shops. P. H. McCarthy, Labor Commissioner, addressed the board in support of the request of the union men. The board listened patiently to the dif- ferent speakers, but no action was taken. A special meeting will be held on Tues- gflss the monthly de- mands, when the horseshoeing question will probably be disposed of. D. R. Connriff acted as secretary in the absence of M. Spinettl, assistant secre- tary, through sickness. The matter of Secretary Gorman's resignation was not referred to.

The cgse of James Burns, allas “Skin- ney” Ryan, the notorious pickpocket, was called in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday, and as he did not make his appearance the bonds were declared forfeited and a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. | - The bonds, as stated exclusively in Fri- | ‘s Call, ‘were accepted by Judge Ca- | baniss on false representations made to | him by *“James Gorman” and ‘“Charles | Bishop,” who qualified as sureties and | were found to be worthless. The detec- | tives have been diligently searching for | urns, but he has gone East. Burns was | a, pall of "Kid" Young and James Mer- | rill, alias Meehan, and it is peculiar that | each has escaped punishment for his | crime through being released on “straw' | bonds.
