EXPERIENCES OF THE WAR
OFFICERS FOR NEXT YEAR

Yesterday.
Two associations of Minnesota S
old veterans held reunions yesterday
the Tenth infantry and the Fourth
volunteers. The former met in the
room of the Jobbers' union in the
Fire and Marine building, adjourn
ing shortly after noon and spending
several hours of the afternoon at
dinner together the time being spent
in relating old war tales and reminis-
cences. The Fourth regiment of
volunteer veterans met in court room
No. 8 at the court house, adjourning
about 1 o'clock, meeting in an in
formal way in the afternoon and
spending the time talking over their
old war experiences.
1t was the thirteen reunion of the
Fourth, and the attendance was
very large, considering the fact that
the death rate among the old vet
Grams is now quite heavy. This regi-
ment led Grant IS forces when he took
possession Of Vicksburg, and it was
also with Sherman when he marched
into Washington with his army. Fol-
lowing is a list of the old vets who
responded to the roll call:

Gen. John B. Sanborn, who has held
t The position of president for years,
called the meeting to order The sec
retary is Capt. Brown, Gen. Sanborn,
in reporting for the committee on
monument, called attention to the fact
that this famous regiment has no
monument on any of the battle fields
on which it fought. There was some
discussion as to whether the monu-
ment should be erected on one of the
battle fields or at the new capitol.
Gen. Sanborn thought the latter would
be preferable owing to the remote;less
of the battle fields and the fact that
many of them are covered with a
growth of timber that has sprung up
since the war. 1t was suggested that
the soldiers home would be a fitting
place. But by a unanimous vote it was
decided in favor of having the monu-
ment located at the capitol, and the
committee on monument was contin-
ued
