If the findings of such board be unfavorable to such officer and be approved by the commander in chief, he shall be dismissed from the service. No officers, whose grade or promotion would be in any way affected by the de- cision of said board in any case that may come before the board, shall participate in the examination or decisions of the board in such case. Fallure to appear when ordered before a board constituted under this section shall be sufficlent grounds for a finding by such board that the officer ordered to appear be dis- charged.” This is a very drastic law, and in the East no commissioned officer summoned before such a board has ever been al- lowed to return to his station. OFFICER CITED TO APPEAR. For the first time in the history of the State of California, so far as it applies to the National Guard, will a commis- sioned officer, who had been pronounced “0 K,” “A to 1 by the examining board of a regiment, be called upon to Lof this character. The meeting will be held in brigade headquarters in this city on January 17. The board is oomposed of Colonel A. W. Bradbury, Major F. J. Keesling and Major E. G. Hunt. The officer cited to appear belongs to the First Infantry, but his name has not yet been given out. It is said that if this officer ever did know anything about mili- tary duties, such knowledge must have gone a glimmering, for at this time he does not know enough to take charge of an awkward squad. The first step in the matter of regulat- ing armories within the territorial juris- diction of the Second Brigade is the issu- ance of an order in which appears the following language: *“It having come to the attention of the commanding general that card playing and other games are allowed in some of the armories, it is hereby ordered that no gambling of any kind whatsoever shall be permitted in any armory or room set apart for mili- tary purposes within the limits of this brigade. This is imperitive and all com- manding officers shall see that it is en- forced.” COMMANDERS WARNED. It is the idea of General Koster, com- manding the brigade, that nothing shall be done in the brigade that shall bring shame upon it and If commanding offi- cers fall to carry out the provisions of | this order. they will be brought to the brigade rack and given an opportunity to explain, if they can, why they have been neglectful. In future members of companles, if they desire to play cards in the armories. will have to do so for beans and be careful that they do not place any value on the beans. The announcement that there is a movement on foot that has for its pur- pose the closing of armories in the day- time so that such shall not be loafing places at times when there is no mili- tary duty to be performed, has caused a great deal of talk during the last week among officers of the guard. Some contend that when members of organi- zations have a spare hour during the ids_\' they ought to be allowed to go to the armory. On the other hand it is claimed that If the members went to the armory for the purpose of perfect- ing themselves in their military dutles | it would be well and good, but that congregating in them for the purpose of playing poker, swapping yarns that are not calculated to elevate the moral standard of an organization, or loung- ing on chairs in front of the armory is not in the line of duty nor conducive to creat- ing the best opinion in the minds of the citizens who pay the cost of maintain- ing the guard. It is contended that if there had not been “the freedom of the armory” there would not have been the scandal in the First Infantry Regi- ment about the disappearance of com- pany and regimental property that has of late brought the regiment into un- pleasant notorfety. SURGEON IS STRICT. The First Infantry Regiment, which for some time has not been in the best shape as to numerical strength In the several organizations, has recently through the commanding officers been endeavoring to recruit, but each com- mander seems to have been unfortunate in obtaining men who are not up to the physical standing according to the decision of the examining surgeon, Major Beasley, for man after man who has been sent to him for physical ex- amination has been turned down, and this to such an extent that the com- manders have become discouraged in the matter of endeavoring to obtain new material for the companies.” They claim that the surgeon 18 “too strict” in the examinations, being stricter than in the regular army, and cite as an In- stance that one of the applicants re- cently rejected was turned down be- cause the lung test, Inhalation and ex- halation, did not bring the chest meas- urement to the standard by an inch or less. It is asserted that this man is one of the most powerful of the local athletes and that he is not shy in wind or muscle, but only In chest measure- ment. The major holds that accor@ing to the physical form he is required to follow certain rules and that he is go- ing to follow them to the letter. The officers of the First are of the opinion that the major might be as lenient In his examinations as are regular army surgeons and say that if the men should have to be mustered into the volunteer service each member of the regiment would have to undergo another physical examination anyway. REGIMENTAL DRILL. The First Regiment Infantry had a regimental drll on Van Ness avenue last week, which was followed by an inspection in the armory by Brigadier General Koster. The drill was in close order, and taken as a whole was quite satisfactory. The men in the ranks were noticeable for their Interest in the drill, the absence of taiking in the ranks and attempts to be funny. Such undergo an examination before a board | FOR STATEMENT Not in Harmony With the Strenuous Zeal Exhibited by Local Chinese Bureau ALIENS WILL RETURN —_— To Be Taken Off the Coptic at Honolulu and Brought Back to Await Decision Nothing new developed yesterday in the Chinese Bureau with relation to the ‘‘rail- roaded” deportation of Id Wah, his wife and Gi Yok by the bureau in deflance of the order of United States District Judge de Haven that they should be kept here pending an appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. It is conceded on all sides that Chief Mehan of the bureau was carried away by his zeal to enforce the Exclusion Act and did not reflect that his duty ended when Judge de Haven ordered the immigrants into the custody of the steamship company. His explanation of his action was telegraphed yesterday to Secretary Metcalf. The following dispatch, received by The Call from Washington, D. C., yesterday afternoon, indicates the Iine of action that will be taken in the matter: “Secretary Metcalf sald to-day regard- ing the three Chinese, Li Wah and wife and Gi Yok, who are alleged to have been denorte¢. on the Coptic despite an order from the United States court stay- ing deportation, that inasmuch as he was not advised oflicially that such an order bad been issued, he had telegraphed for information and if it is found that the facts are as rcpresented he will grant the necessary authority for the three persons to be landed at Horolulu, there to take passage back to San Francisco. The Pa- cific Mail Steamship Company has indi- cated to the department its willingness to tring them back free of expense.” ——————b movements as the companies were put through, as Individual organization, battalion formation, or as a regiment, were carried out smoothly. and while there were faults to be found they were such as will be called attention to with the idea of Improvement at future drills. It was noticeable that in the drill there was a marked improve- ment in the military bearing of the officers, as well as the men. At the Inspection Company C and Company F each made a good showing as to numbers, Companies A, B, D and E made a fair showing, but Company G, Captain Wall, and Company H, Cap- tain Peckham, each made a very weak display. What there was of the men on the floor ‘made a good appearance, being up to the standard as to white, standing collars, black shoes and neat- ness of uniform. The band was par- ticularly attractive, each man being in faultless attire, with instruments as bright as when they came from the maker. The deportment of the men. as well as the officers, was much better than it has been in the past, and there was that attention to orders that. when followed, is calculated to make good soldlers. There are to be other regi- mental drills by this organization, and if there is as marked an improvement as there was at the last held one over the preceding ome, it will ‘e apparent that the First s trying to make a rec- ord for itself. ATHLETICS IN FIRST. The athletic feature of the First In- fantry is to be enlarged. for in addl- tion to simple gymnastic apparatus, a handball court is to be put up In the armory at Page and Gough streets, and there will be baths so that the men can “cool off,” after violent exercise. There is to be a teacher who will regulate the amount of gymnastic exercise the men should have. Cecil Henry Carcass has, by election, been promoted from secon to first lieutenant of Company A of the First Infantry, and F. Bertrand has been elected second lieutenant of the same Pcompany, vice Carcass. Lieutenant W. H. Talbot of Company G, First Infantry, having become tired of soldiering because his efforts to ad- vance and improve the organization he was connected with were not encour- aged, tendered his resignation last week and it has been accepted. It is sald that Lieutenant Talbot cannot be blamed for resigning. An election has been ordered for January 26 to fill the vacancy caused by the, resignation of Talbot. : In the First Battalion of Artillery ten men have been discharged from the ser- vice of the State, seven on account of re- moval, two upon a two-thirds vote of the company and one at expiration of enlist- ment. John Milledge has been appointed ser- geant of Company A, artillery, and Pri- vate Alvin Robert Fourdt corporal in the same company. NEW DRUM MAJOR. Two members of the artillery band have been discharged at the expiration of term of enlistment. Private F. Thompson has been appointed chief musician and Pri- vate Edwin Leo Green drum major. Here- after the band will meet every Tuesday for drill and practice, except during the month of December. ’ The staff and non-commissioned staff of the First Artillery will report hereafter every Monday night at the Ellis street armory, except in December. Their pres- ence on such nights will be credited to their atendance. Orders have been Issued to the First Ar- tillery that drills shall not be of less dura- tion than one hour. The various branches of the battallon will hereafter meet in the armory every Monday night for drill, except on the Monday night when there is a busines meeting. W. Grant Hyde has been elected first lleutenant of Company F of the First In- fantry. L W. H. Homer, elected second lieutenant of Company A of the First Artillery, has passed a successful examination before the examining board. Captain Herbert Choynski, quartermas- ter of the First, has been granted a thirty days’ leave of absence. The new company, C of the Second, has been mustered in at Nevada City. D. A. Darby was elected captain, F. W. Wag- goner first lieutenant and W. H. Schrader second leutenant. Lafayette Davis, at one time a member of a Fifth Infantry company and late of the regular army, a veteran of the recent war, died in the Presidio hospital last week and was buried yesterday in the National Cemetery. Captain Vanderbilt, on behalf of Company D, sent a floral plece to be placed over the grave of the deceased former comrade. Uses Big Club on Customer.

It was considered fortunate that the blaze was observed in time, because with the high wind prevailing if the flames had got the least headway nothing could have saved the building from destruction. The loss by the fire was trifiing, but the smoke caused a good deal of dam- age. Besides Mr. and Mrs. Newhall and their infant there were eleven servants in the house. . —_————————— Many Sewer Breaks Reported.
