Regular Army Rule.

Until nov the Interpretation of the above

missions mas permitted applicants to be ex-

examinations have been graded so as to
permit the award of official badges to any
private or pon-commissioned officer who
passed the examination for second O.. first
lieutenant or captain, or, as might happea

What is Expected of Members in
Volunteer Service.
SHOULD REPORT At ONCE FOR DUTY
Order Of General Harries Affecting
Candidates for Promotion.
DAPRAY'S PROGRAM

Now that the 1st District of Columbia
Volunteer Regiment is about to be disband-
ed, the time is at hand for those officers
and men who availed themselves of the
leaves of absence and furloughs authorized
by the District of Columbia general order
issued in May last, to decide promptly
whether or not they intend to resume their
status of duty in the District of Columbia
National Guard. Under the order above re-
ferred to, officers Of the guard were grant
ed unlimited leave and enlisted men un-
limited furlough, to enter the United States
volunteer service, and in availing them
selves of that privilege neither officers or
men dfvested themselves of the allegiance
or obligations in the National Guard en-
tailed by their oaths. 1t will be incumbent
upon all such, therefore, unless the officers
resign and the enlisted men secure proper
discharges, to report for duty with their
respective organizations Immediately after
muster out of the United States volunteer
service, the officers reporting by letter
through prescribed military channels, and
the enlisted men reporting in person direct
to their immediate commanders, who will
at once report the fact to militia headquar-
ters, through proper military channels
The purpose of the headquarters authori-
ties, 1t is understood, will be positive in
sfstance upon strict and prompt compl-
ance as above set forth on the part of all
concerned. In cases where no reports are
made by officers or enlisted men they will
be regarded as absent without leave, and
will be dealt with accordingly. Even if
officers resign or enlisted men apply for dis
charge the preliminary and formal report
for duty will be necessary
1t seems to be the determination of
militia headquarters to avoid any unneces-
sary confusion or uncertainty which tardi-
ness, neglect or Indifference on the part of
guardsmen in the volunteer service might
occasion, and prompt military exactions
Will be exercised. 1t is believed, however
that nearly all the officers and men will at
once return to where they belong in the
guard. Certainly those who have had ac-
tive and practical experience on the field
would be useful to their comrades in the
guard who were denied the privilege of 60
ing to the front, however anxious they all
were to enlist last May, and the stories of
their trials and hardships in Cuba may be
told to ready and sympathetic ears in the
guard rooms and barracks. GOOD feeling
and good fellowship are characteristics of
the true soldier, and both qualities are ele-
ments of that comradesnlp and esprit which
should prevail in every military organiZa-
ton, and which have ever been the dis
tinguishing feature of the District of Co
lumbia National Guard.

New Ordnance Equipments.

The new army and ordnance equipments
recently secured for the guard have been
received from the Rock Island arsenal and
are now stored in the District of Columbia
Armory here. AS soon as the required
acquisitions are forthcoming from company

sues will be made.
New clothing, it is expected. will like
wise soon be available for issue to the
guard.

Decision Touching Promotions.

A very interesting and important decision
has been made by Gen. Harries regarding
candidates for promotion. The provisions
of General Order No. 80, series of 1880, are
as follows:
For the purpose of stimulating the en-
listed men of the National Guard to ac-
quire knowledge of the duties of a soldier
and attain a high standard of efficiency,
these regulations are hereby established:
Commanding officers of regiments are
hereby directed to appoint permanent
boards of examination, to consist of one
captain, one first lieutenant and one second
lieutenant, and fix regular monthly meet
ings of such boards. Any enlisted man,
upon making application through his COM
pany commander, shall be permitted to ap-
pear before the regimental board, which
shall examine him as to his qualifications
to be a non-commissioned officer.
Amy man certified by the boards as COM
petent shall thereupon receive from his
rcslmental commander q certificate of the
examination he has passel. Regimental
commanders will publish in orders ut the
end of each quarter the names of all men
who have been awarded such certificates.
ANY non-commissioned officer, or any
private who has received the certificate Of
| a regimentl board competent to be a
non-commissicned officer upon making ao-
plication through his immediate command
| ing officer, shall be permitted to appear be.
| fore the brigade board of examination.
which shall examine him as to his uualifi-
cations to be commissioned officer.

Capt. Dapray's Program.

instructor of drills, ceremonies and discip-
line, District of Columbia National Guard,
is about to enter upon his duties AS such
BY direction of the commanding general
Captain Dapray has notified the command
ing officer of the 1st Regiment that he will
make an informal visit to the office rooms
occupied by headquarters, 1st Regiment,
Tuesday evening next at o'clock, at
which time and place the presence of the
reelmental commander will be required.
captain Dapray explains that visits like
the one in question are designed for the
benefit of all concerned in the maintenance
of good order. military discipline and prop
er and correct methods of military admin
istration. 1t is therefore desired that ell,
or as many as possible, IF the regimental
and battalion officers and non-commission-
ed officers of the 1st Regiment shall be
present at the time designated. with the
view that all concerned may ask questions
and receive such instruction in military reg
ulations as the fullest latitude of informal
conferences can afford. Experience has
demonstrated, says Captain Dapray int
while National Guardsmen may, and at
times do, adopt and follow different and
varying methods Of military administra-
ton, the one right and best method is that
duly prescribed for the regular army of
the United States, to which all should as
far as practicable, conform. To this end,
Captain DaLray adds, the comma nding
general expects that all concerned will
lend fullest effort. energy and cooperation
to advance the efficiency of the organiza-
tions in the District of Columbia National
Guard to the required standard.
Captain Dapray will make visit of in
spection and instruction to LIST Battalion
headquarters Wednesday evening next, and
to I'd Battalion headquarters Thursday
evening next.
The Naval Battalion will be inspected by
Captain Dapray, on board the Fern, to-
morrow morning, when the usual Sunday
morning naval exercises will occur. A spe
cial effort has been made to have every
member Of the battalion present.
1t is among the possibilities that First
Lieut.. S. Clifford Cox, assistant surgeon
of the 1st District of Columbia Volunteer
Infantry, will be nominated as surgeon of
the Naval Battalion.

most of 1t has gone to Great Britain and
