Three Hundred of the "BIack
Devils" at La Crosse.
LA CROSSE, Wis, Oct. 2O.-The re-
union of the old Iron Brigade opened
here today. The city has practically
been turned over to the veterans, their
families and friends, and public build
ings and a large portion of the bust
ness places are decorated with the ma
tional colors, and the playing of mar
tial music by the various bands and
drum corps can be heard incessantly.
There were about 800 of the Iron Bri-
gade in the city and every train brings
more of the "black DEVILS as they
were called at Gettysburg. The brigade
was composed of the following regi
ments: The Second, Sixth and Sew
enth Wisconsin, the Nineteenth In
diana and the Twenty-fourth Michi-
gan. While the three Wisconsin regi-
ments have the largest representation
here, there are a goodly number from
the other two regiments.
Gen. e. S. Bragg and wife arrived
this morning. Col. Watrous, Of Mil
waukee, also arrived this morning.
Gen. Bragg and Col. w. w. Robinson
are the only survivors of the six who
from time to time commanded the bri-
gade. The former is president of the
association.
At o'clock this morning a line of
march was formed at Hotel Young,
brigade headquarters, and the veter-
ans, headed by several bands, includ-
ing the Zouave Drum corps, composed
of young boys, in blue and white uni
forms, with red caps, and Gen. e. S.
Bragg and wife, escorted by Col. B.
F. Bryant in carriages, marched to
Germania hall There the address of
welcome was delivered by Col. Bryant.

responded briefly but eloquently. The
business of the meeting was then taken
up. After the business session the vet
Grams listened to programme, consist
ing of war papers by members, songs,
music, etc. A similar session will be
held this evening. The second day will
be given up to a general jollifcation
