In the issue of THE CALL OF last Satur-
day was the announcement that the
trophy won by the California marksmen in
the contest with the National Guard of the
Hawaiian Islands had been received and
acknowledged by Lieutenant Colonel Du-
boce commanding the First Regiment,
Second Brigade. 1t had been intended to
have public presentation of the trophy,
but changes in the personnel of the COM
mand of the First caused a change in
the progromme. The trophy will be
handed over to the winners without cere-
mony and each of the winn ing marksmen
will be handed an oxidized silver button
for the lapel to be worn in commemora-
ton of the victory.
At meeting OF the officers Of the First
Regiment of Infantry held last Thursday
night Colonel-elect James f. Smith was
in attendance, and was presented to the
board by the lieutenant-colonel, with
whom he is on the best of terms.
The colonel elect made short address
during which be returned thanks for the
election, stated that there would not be
any changes, and that he would do all in
his power to maintaln the standard OF the
First at the highest.
During the M ting there was some talk
by those present OF the lieutenant-coIonel
Duboce and the nope was expressed that
he would retain the position he now holds
in the regiment. He was by number
com plimented upon the manner in which
he had conducted the affairs of the regi-
ment at such times when he was in COM
mand of 1t.
The hope that he would remain were
prompted by a rumor that had been in
circulation that the heutenant-colonel in
tends TO resign, not because Of dlsappoint-
ment at not HAVING been elected colonel,
but because he does not feel that he can
remain in regiment with men under him
in whom be has no confidence, men who
voluntarily made promises to him in the
matter of election and at The eleventh
hour failed to keep their promise.
The lieutenant-colonelr refused to talk
about the rumor, declining to either affirm
or deny it. therefore those who are inter-
ested will have to wait until after the ne W
colonel assumes command, which will
probably be within ten DAYS.
