SERGEANTS FOR DESK DUTY.
Superintendent Wrinn Says That tn

Superintendent Wrinn Says That the
 Most Competent Are Detailed for
 That Duty.
 When he spoke before the special committee on estimates Wednesday evening Superintendent Wrinn of the police department was understood to say that the older sergeants who were incompetent had been detailed to desk work while the other sergeants were do- ing street duty. This statement seemed a peculiar one to thoes who so under stood him, as 1t is generally thought that the sergeants doing desk duty at the various stations are among the most competent officers in the depart ment to perform the general duties of the position. It is true that these older sergeants may be less able on account of their age to perform the physical labor appertaining to street duty and 1t was in this sense that the superin- tendent was understood to refer to them as being incompetent
 The superintendent, however, states that he was misunderstood and that what he meant and said was that the older sergeants were detailed for desk duty when competent. They were thus selected because men of long experience and faithful service in police work. The superintendent intended no reflection upon them and pays them the tribute fo beng men of ability and reliability.

Sketches of the Generals Who Com
 mand the British Relieving Col umns.
 Now that Sir Redvers Buffers ad- vance may be said to have commenced, public attention naturally fixes itself on the generals who command the relieving columns.
 Sir Francis Clery, K. c. B., who is now marching to Ladysmith, is hard working soldier, with long service on the staff. His regimental life was spent en- tirely in the Thirty-second Foot, (First Battalion Duke of Cornwalfs Light In- fantry,) which he joined just after the Indian mutiny.
 His first experiences of the battlefield were gained against the Zulus He in- stantly won distinction, for he was pres- ent both at Isandhlwana and Ulundi, and was warmly mentioned in dispatch eS.
 His next campaign was in Egypt in 1882 when he acted as brigade major al Alexandria, Then he took his share of arduous toll in the sad Soudan. He fought at Ell Teb and Tamai and won a brevet colonelcy and c. B., and he marched with the Nile expedition of 1SS4-5 as deputy adjutant and quarter master-general.
 When fighting round Suakim Clery wore his red tunic, while every one else had khaki, and 1t was said at the time that no other man in the force was so often the target for Dervish rifles. Luckily the shoot ing was not straight.
 Sir Francis Clery is man of pluck, besides soldier of sound military edu- cation. He has quick eye for country, and clear knowledge what troops can and should do C sFf
 In the hunting field General Clery is a notable performer and is we'll known in the service clubs and in Pall Mall as the sprucest and best-turned-out man in London, but who yet has none of the dandy in his composition.
