Col Kendall was asked yesterday if
he had selected his band for the First
Regiment, and he replied that he had Sc
lected Chandler's. "I appointed Pain
chaud's band for the First Regiment
band six years ago when I was first
elected colonel of the regiment, and it
has had thelhonor every year since This
year Chambers band made big bid for
the honor and for various reasons I
thought it best to select that band
Painchaud's has always done good work
but there seems to be feeling outside
of Biddeford that some other band should
receive the honor, and gave it to Chand-
ler's. I have also appointed President
Pagan of the commonEcouncil of Portland
principal musician on my staff and he
will accompany the band to Augusta as
