went into the berth of superintendent, and

Wrinn of station No. 1. Lieutenant
O'Keefe next September becomes captain
of station No. 2, and Sergeant Detective
Brewer will on the same day assume like
duties over station No. 4. The promo
tions are deserved in the cases of all, and
the recipients were heartily congratulated.
