FIVE REGIMENTAL REUNIONS IN
SESSION YESTERDAY.
Seventy-Ninth VIII Put Tn Monu-
ment at Chickamauga-at General
Strengths Old Home.

State fair week at Indianapolis is always
period taken advantage of to hold re-
unions, both military and family. and oc-
casionally political The fair week of 1896
bids strong to break the record in the mat
ter of brigade and regmental reunions,
eight having been held already and more
to follow.
Five reunions were held in the city yes
terday, the organizations represented being
the Fifty-fourth Indiana Infantry. the
Twenty-sixth Infantry Second Regiment
Indiana Cavalry, the Nineteenth Indiana
Battery and the Seventy-ninth Indiana In
fantry. The two first named held their
meetings at the courthouse, the cavalry
met at G. A. r. Hail. and the last two took
possession of the Statehouse.
At the reunion of the Fifty-fourth In
fantry the fifty-ive members present were
called to order by the president Lieuten-
ant Brooks. Mostly routine business was
transacted and arrangements We're made
looking to the printing of the regmental
history. kilograms and letters from alb
sent comrades were read. expressing great
regret at being unable to be present. This
regiment is one of the best furnished by
Indiana and was organized in this city
in the fail of 1861, with Fielding Mansfield
as colonel. 1t was with Sherman when he
was repulsed at Vicksburg in 1862. and
shared the triumph of Grant when the
same little river city fell in 1868. The boys
fought in many big engagements and have
a splendid record for bravery and service
TO their credit. Officers for 1897 were
elected as follows:
President--George S. KoontZ. Roanoke,
Ind.
Secretary and Treasurer-A. e. Sample,
of Knightstown, Ind.
Indianapolis was chosen as the place for
holding the next reunion, and Wednesday
of State fair week the day. After the
regular business was transacted short
camp fire was held in the court room and
many of the missing pigs chickens and
cattle of the Southern people were ac-
counted for.

The Second Cavalry.

The Second Regiment of Indiana Cavalry
met at the G. A. r. Hall. on Delaware
street. Only about forty-five were present
as the membership is fast being reduced by
death, and the distance from the residences
of many to this city was too great for the
trip to be undertaken. The regiment was
called to order by Capt. o. S. Dale, presi-
dent and about fifty letters of regret az
enforced absence were read. One was
from A. J. Arnold. postmaster at Topeka,
the Kansas capital. This regiment has the
distinction of possessing quite a talented
musician and composer, o. L. MerrifieId,
who is also secretary of the organization
Several songs of his composition were rem
dered at the afternoon camp fire, and they
of unmistak able merit
The Second Cavalry was organized here
and first placed in action under the
command of Robert r. Stewart. Later
they served under the famous Colonel Ed.
w. McCook During the afternoon camp
fire the reunion was addressed by General
John Coburn, OF this city. He made ii
short speech. detailing a few "reminiscences
of the late unpleasantness. and honoring
the Second for the gallant service per-
formed by the members.

tain just one week later. seeing actual
service far sooner than the average raw
regiment. They were all over western Vir-
ginia during 1S61-63. and were in all the
principal enga gements fought there. An
invitation was received by the association
to be the guests of T.. II. Williams for
dinner and the members accepted it by
adiourning at once to his pleasant home
near Irvington. After dinner was served
a delightful programme of music. songs

Republican Rally.

Last Saturday was Republican

beautiful and there was a'big crown,
and The people especially the
Younger ones seemed vie with
each other in making a noise Tin
horns were abundant.

tiscd to speak, but neither one put

hear the speaking, however they
wautCo TO hear themselves make a
noise
Al night. there was Il fine torcil-
light parade 1T was credit TO
those who had the matter in charge.
The only thing that married the DC
casicn was the shooting Of the
Bryan bauucr which hangs across
the street at silver headquarters
This action stirred up the blood of
the Bryan men. and resullc in one
little Soup" bat no blood was
spilled after liLdng that they
had created trouble by shooting al
the Bryan tanner, they went over
to their cWu banner, at Republican
headquarters, and shot at that,
thinking tliat would pacify tn ;
Bryau men
Hwo nee .ings were held at night
one at The opera house and one at
tnc Auditorium. The meeting at
the Auditorium was called an
"ovcrhow' meeting, though why it
was so called no one can tell, for
neither p ace was more than half
iul.
However, the Republicans appear
to be satisfied with the rally.

the Plaindealer lakes to task the
silver men who attended recent
Republican meeting at Mineral
Point. saying that the silver men
undertook to break up the Rcpub-
lican meeting. Here are the facts
in the case: The Republicans were
sore because Charley Scott got so
badly ratified in his speech at liar
ris u few nights previous, and they
said they would have chad man"
from FL scott, wo would edo" the
Harris boys. They gave the sill
veries II pressing invitation to at.
tend, and, upon request, promised
TO divide the time with them but,
when the tine of meeting arrived =,
thev refused TO divide the time, but
the speaker invited the silver
"boys" to ask questions said he
was there to answer questions.
OF course, The "hoys' accepted the
invitation, and when the speaker
made raw break, they "called
him down" and pulled the docu.
ments on him. Finally, the Repub.
licaus saw that their man was get
thug the worst of it, and some of
them undertook to drown the ques-
tiuus by making a noise. The sill
yer men were NOT noisy and bolster

vitation to ask questions These

FROM CAPT. LLOYD.

DEAR AGITATOR: Please an
nounce that the Peoples party
will have a meeting III New
Rochelle on the goth Of October,
in the evening. 1t is hoped we
will have Heterogeneous forour
cause than State Senator pavy
did at the Republican meeting.
He took great pains to impress
upon his audience that it was
very Important that every mer-
chant should have plenty Of
cash in his drawer every morn
ing if he expects to do any bus
mess. They all seemed to think
so; but when he said it was just
as necessary for the United
States to have hundred mil
lions John Sherman's preserve)
in the treasury TO do business,
the people did not see the point.
l thought the only thing for a
merchant to expect TO do any
trade Sin the morning" would
be to have good stock of goods
for cash---and if the people
had any cash, the merchant
would soon get the cash. Eth?
| think my town will go for
free silver. Amen!
