SQUADRON OF THE FOURTH UNITED STATES CAVALRY
 EQUIPPED FOR THE FIELD

Gific Coast will be well provided for, There may be a scarcity of camp equipage, but this can be supplied at short notice from the Eastern army departments.
 Captain Charles Dodge, Twenty fourth Infantry, arrived in the city yes terday afternoon from Tokio, Japan, where he has been on leave of ab- sence. Captain Dodge expects to leave tonight for Tampa, Fla, where his regiment is now stationed. The cap- tain is stopping at the Occidental
 The land forces defending the har- Dor of San Francisco consist of seven foot batteries of the Third Artillery and four troops of the Fourth Cavalry. One battery is on duty holding the for midabIe position at Fort Baker, on the Marin bluffs opposite the .Presidio. Another battery garriSons AlcatraZ Island, while five of the seven batteries man the modern high power guns, and rifled mortars and dynamite guns near Fort Point.
 The entire artillery force is under the immediate control of Colonel M. P. Miller, Third Artillery. He is ably sus- tained by Major David H. Kinzie and Major Frank ". Hess. All the forts are connected with wires. land and sub maTEne, radiating from one central point, so the fighting may be under the immediate control of one man.
 Colonel Miller and the officers of the engineer corps hold daily consultations. Since the opening of actual hostilities the military authorities have given out very little information concerning the defensive work. It is well known, how ever, that very large force of men has been at work day and night for the past three weeks on the formidable for tifications at Lime Point. Angel Island is another busy place where a large force of workmen is engaged.

 c. F. A. LAST, Brigadier-General.
 Lieutenant Sidney A Cloman, Eff teenth United States Infantry. who has been detailed as acting assistant quartermaster and commissary of sub sistence, called upon Captain Caring ton at headquarters yesterday. They held conference relative to matters connected with the mastering in of the National Guard. Captain Harrington has not yet received the mastering blanks from the War Department. He has to select quarters where he will open his office for the purpose of mus tering in the men. The First Regi- ment armory would, in the opinion of Captain Darlington, be suitable place for mastering in the troops, but he has not yet aseertained if he can secure it. He would be obliged to have the entire first floor of the armory, and this would necessitate the companies giv- ing up their company rooms, which they can not conveniently do, so Cap- tain Darlington will probably have his quarters elsewhere.
 Governor Budd was at headquarters from noon until 4 o'clock. Only rou-

Only Two Thefts In Iceland In a Thousand
Years.
In Iceland there arc no prisons, and
the inhabitants are 50 honest in their
habits that such defensos to property as
locks bolts and bars are not required,
nor arc there any police in tho island.
Yet its history for 1000 years records
no more than two tbcfts. CT these two
cases enc was that OF a native, who was
detected after stealing several sheep,
but as he had done SO 70 supply his fam
lily, who were suffering for want Ct
food, when he had broken lis arm, pro
visions were furnished to them and
work YVES found f0r him when able to
do IL, and meanwhile he was placed I'M
dor medical care. but the stigma attach
Sd to his crime wac considered sufficient
punishment.
The other theft was by German,
who stole II sheep
But as he was in comfortable c.rcum.
stances and Tic rcbL2 cry was malicious
the sentence passed upon him was that
he should cell all his property, restore
the value Of what he had stolen and
then leave the country or 10 executed,
and he Left at cuco. But though crime
as raro in Iceland and its inhabitants
are distinguished for honesty and puri-
ty Of morals there is, Of course, proyi.
sion for the administration of justice,
which consists, first Of all, in the sher-
ifs courts; next, by appeals to the
court Of three judges at Eeikiavik, the
capital, and lastly in all criminal and
most civil cases to tho supreme court at
Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, Of
which Kingdom the island forms q part.
The island of Panaris, one Of the Lipari
group, is equally fortunate in having
neither prisons nor lawyers and being
absolutely destitute Of both paupers and
oriminals. Boston TRANSCRIPT,
