Lieutenant Pershing's successor as military instructor at the state univerei tp, was named this week. The new ap pointee is Captain John F. Guilfoyle, Ninth cavalry. The News stated that Captain Guil foyle is the first captain ever appointed commandent of cadets. This iB an error. It has been the custom to detail lieutenants for this class of detached work; but recently their custom has been departed from. Two captains were assigned to duty of this sort just recent ly, prior to the appointment in ques tion. In a city where officers of the regular army are vouchsafed to us in distress ingly limited quantities, the few that come to v are rendered particularly im portant. When a new officer is coming it is something to know somewhat of his personality and history. It is not at ail unlikely that certain young women in society are even now speculating aa to whether Captain Guilfoyle ia married or single. He ia married, and is some where between 35 and 40 yean of age. His regiment has been stationed at Fort Robinson, Neb., and it is thought that he may have been doing duty in the field in the recent scare in the north west. The captain has a fine military record, and ia abandantly qualified to carry on and develop the work so suc cessfully done by Lieutenant Pershing. Captain Guilfoyle ia expected to arrive in the city about Oct. 1. Lieutenant Pershing will probably visit Lincoln sometime next month, and may remain until his successor reports for duty. society.
