They secured a whitehall, loaded her with the whisky, and getting under the wharf passed up twenty-five cent flasks, charging fifty gents for them, as fast as they could be andled. Police Stop the Game. Soon a_number of the soldiers and marines began to get hilarioud and then the police “smelt a rat.”” They secured one of Henry Peterson's boats and made a h under the wharf, but the whisky traders saw them getting into the boat and easily made their escape. No more liquor got on_ the wharf by that route. Many of the men attempted to take large bottles of whisky aboard the trans- port, but in_every instance it was taken from them by the officer on watch and smashed agalnst the side of the ship. The next transports to get away for China will be the Meade from this port and the Garonne from Seattle. Both ves- sels leave on Wednesday, August 1. The Meade is to_take away one battalion of the Fifteenth Infantry, one squadro)r:/of the Third Cavalry and one company of engineers; in all sixty officers and 1071 men. The Garonne takes away two squad- rons of the First Cavalry and 100 recruits; in all thirty-five officers and 950 men. Loving Cup for Bradley. Prior to the salling of the Hancock a very pleasing incident took place. Cap- tain Bradley, quartermaster captain ef the transport, was presented with a mag- nificent loving cup. It came from the members of the Philippine Commission that was sent to Manila_on the Hancock by the Government.

A Colonel Burgin Works a Little Scheme to Accept a New Appointment ‘Without Being Reduced in Rank. SOV | There has been considerable curiosity as | to how the parade reports of the First In- fantry of the National Guard of California will show up when they reach headquar- ters. At headquarters no one as yet seems | to know what they look like or if any one | does the fact is concealed from the pub- | lie, for when inquiry is made as to news | of the guard the answer is, ‘‘There ls‘ | nothing new."” | It is known outside of officlal sources | | that a number of the companies of that | regiment did not parade on the Fourth of | July In the numbers that the law requires. The law is that when companies are or- dered out for parade If any _purmiv less than thirty-two men it shall be disband- ed. Some of the companies made such a meager showing that they had to be con- solidated with the result that there was not a full regiment on parade. One of the companies did not have more than ten | men for parade. An cfficer of the com- pany, when asked how he would get over the thirty-two or disband proposition, re- enough. The men reported rmory—more than forty of them— did not have any uniforms tor o they could not parade. We man- them, aged 'to scrape up a few presentable uni- forms and consolidated our men with oth- | er companies that were shy on uniforms. The men answered rollcall and that is | equivalent to parading In view of the fact thaz they could not be in line in the habili- ments of soldiers.” The reply of the officer as to the uni- forms for the First Infantry is true. It | 1s now several months since the measures for the men were given, but the uniforms have not materialized. ' If this continues it is likely that the First Regiment will not be in better condition to parade on | Admission day than it was on the Fourth of Ju “The lack of promptitude in placing the guard on the footing to make it the ef- ADVERTISEMENTS. ‘ SPECIAL BARGAINS.

Colonel J. F. argin. having on the retired list, bas been detalled to re- port to the brigadier general of the Sec- ond Brigade. He will act as assistant adjutant general, to succeed Giesting with rank of lieutenant colonel. When he was selected for that position he would, if he had accepted it at once, been rc- duced from colonel to the lower grade. In order not to lose his rank, having served long enough, he asked-to be placed on the retired list. It was a neat little scheme and it worked to the satisfaction of Colonel Burgin. The long talked of changes on the staff of the commander in chief have been made.
