Examination and Passes With
Flying ColOrs-Two More Com
panies in the Service-The Heat
Was Pretty Strong Yesterday-
Interesting hits of Camp Life.
Despite the excessive heat at Camp
Ramsey yesterday, there was an I'M
usual amount of activity manifested by
the soldiers. Ratiors for five days
were issued to each company and haul
ed or packed to camp. Arms were is
sued to Company b and E, and
portion of Company K We're issued
uniforms, leggings and shoes. The de-
livery of these made business brisk up
among the white tents.
Then the NAL delivery was the larg-
est of any day so far in the Fifteenth
regiment, 234 letters and thirty pounds
CT papers ard pac kages being distribut-
ed among the boys. Companies II and
X were mustered in yesterday. Com
pany l would have been mustered in
but Went over until today, as their
muster rolls were not completed.
Seven of the members of Company 1
took Withdrawal cards ard returned to
help swell Gus WendelSchafers major
ity up in LIE Sueur county this fall. The
men who rr cd not Wee P. H. K hi SER
satt, j. H. Gillian, c. d .ckenson, Lew
Davis, Henry harrington, John Haley
and Joe Krmik.
Col. Shandrew presented himself for
examination yesterday, and the colonel
passed with flying colors For chest
development and expansion he leads
the regiment.
During the day Maj. Hand dropped
in on Lieut.. Donaldson and was mus
tered into the United States service
Chief Black, of the Duluth fire de-
partment, presented Col. Shandrew
with two ideal folding camp chairs.
They are beauties. They are not only
substantially made, but are so con-
Structed that they can be folded into
almost as small a compass as one of
the ordinary camp stools. They will
accompany the Fifteenth regiment dur
ing all the vicissitudeS that may be
in store for it.
An elegant color stand adorned the
front of the colonepS quarters yester-
Cay afternoon, also. 1t was manu.ac-
tured by the regimental carpenter on
the camp ground, and Quartermaster
Coe, always with an eye to business,
says that he saved the state some $3.50
by having it made by regimental en-
ployeS. The quartermaster certainly
could not have procured a better one
anywhere.
Lieut.. John I. Jones, of Company NJ.
yesterday was formerly notified by
Gov. Clough of his release from the
Fourteenth Minnesota volunteers. The
lieutenant before receiving a commits
sion in the Fifteenth, was one of the
corporalS of Company K, of the Four
teenth. He is son of once-Speaker
OF the house, j. D. Jones, of Long
Prairie
The heat became so oppressive dur
ing the afternoon that general orders
were issued by Col. Shandrew dis
pensing with the 4:3O p. m. drill. 1t
was popular order with the boys.
There were only four soldiers in the
hospital yesterday, although there were
sixty-three responses to sick call in
the morning. Most of them were SUI
fering from the effects of the change
of water.
BY tonight the Fifteenth will be using
406 tents; eight tents 9s9 will be used
for headquarters; ten, 91sX14, general
headquarters; nine hospital tents with
fys will be used as follows: Col. Shan
drew one, Adjt. Catlin l, guard house
l and six for hospital purposes, general
headquarters for field and staff, and
headquarters mess, ard cook tent.
The understanding with Contractor
Saunders was amicably adjusted yes
terday. No one but Saunders suffers
by this mistake. Col. Shandrew has
adopted the old English army scheme
for tent gun rack. Two lines are
stretched from the front to the rear
tent pole and the muzZes of the gun
barrel are entwined between them, the
butts resting on board ground to re-
ceive them. This leaves a long portion
of the line to be used by the inmates
of the tent to hang clothing, ETC., upon.
The system is proving popular with
the boys.
