The Fifteenth regiment band receiV-
Ell their instruments yesterday, twenty
one or them, including both drums.
They We're furnished by w. j. Dyer &
Bros, of st. Pau. The instruments
pleased the members OF the band i'm
menSely. The band viii begin prac-
tlce today, and by tomorrow night
Chief Musician Snowfall expects TO be
able to name those who will be fixtures
with the band. Tolletson, of Company
a, is the slickeSt man with the baton
in the regiment and may be made
drum major OF the band, although, if
there are many applicants for the posi-
ton, 1t may require something more
than mere nimblenesS with the stick to
land d man In the position. The drum
major necessarily has to be up in drill
pretty well, as 1t is his place to put
them through the Movements. So it
may be that the sergeant who can drill
a squad Will be CHOSEN. The drum
major ranks first sergeant, so that the
position carries something more than
mere show with it.
The guard mount last night will re-
main on duty tWenty-four hours, and

Something of a scare went through
the regiment yes.e- day when it became
noised about that several of the boys
had the BARRIERS itch. Col. ShandreW
had .. NJ. Coe inspect the barber shop
i1stanter. "Hairdresser Jim's" shop
was given a thorough searching. Jim
and his assistant had their licenses,
Nd cl,n, III
claimed that the disease was caught in
certain shop in st. Paul. Several are
positive that they got touched up at
one of the prominent shops down town,
and the matter will probably be called
to the attention of Secretary Murray,
OF the state board. There is no ques-
ton but what some of the boys have
got it, They are being treated at the
hospital
Lieut.. Col. Le1nhau- er's lite son WAS
az camp yesterday. He was dressed in
the uniform of an officer. He returned

In the battalion drill yesterday which
each battalion went through, the cp n
ion was expressed by several interested
that the Third battalions work, under
Maj. Hand, was a little bit the best of
the day. While each of the others did
surprisingly we'll that of the Third
seemed to be a little the cieanest cut
The great fault is over anxiety on the
part of the boys in the ranks. Some of
them were inclined to begin evolutions
before the command was fully del.v-
cred. This gave some of the companies
a bad alignment at times.
