Three new typhoid cases, forty to fif-
ty men on sick report and fourteen

stance. of yesterdays progress in the
battle with the epidemic at Camp Ram
sey. Indeed, the conquest is almost
complete.
DR.. Fry, of the hospital corps, Wis
tied the boys who are in the Minneap-

the afternoon came to St. Paul to see
the typhoid patients in this city.

of Montevideo; Augberg, of Bagley;
Brierman, of Rrownsdale; Goodrich, Of
Mankato; Ieen, of Fostoria: Butler, of
Dayton, O.; O'Brien and Moffett are all
having a severe run of the fever. Mot
fett has been deliriOus a good share of
the time. None of the cases, however,
are considered dangerous.
The men who came in Thursday were
suffering from a much higher fever
than those who came earlier.
Private ISraelSon is greatly improv-
ed.

AT the detached camp the company
streets were widered again yesterday
In order to get the additional snace
the guard house and tents occupied by
the guard details we're moved further
south and pitched along the edge of tho
drill Ground. Tents of Company K
were ten moved east to the fence This
left room for company streets twenty
fcUr feet in width and a distance Of
seventeen feet between the backs of
the tents.
Moving camp occupied So much Of
the time that the battalion did not at
tempt and drilling. In the afternoon,
however, the men were treated to q
concert by the full regimental band
which was thoroughly appreciated.
Hereafter too. there will be two con-
certs daily for the benefit Of the boys
IN quarantine.
The proudest and most popular man
at the fair grounds yesterday was
James RUSSELL of the Tenth cavalry.
L. s. A. Russell is a negro, and he
was twice severely wounded at Santi-
ago. Both the wounds are such that
only extraordinary good fortune kept
them from being fatal. In some way
he managed to get into the quarantined
camp, and there he was found yester-
day morning by Capt. Leonard. Rus
sell went out to the camp to see one

fever brought no fear to a man who
had encountered the yellow brand, and
his regular army experience took him
safely across the picket line He was
the hero Of the day.
The -Guartermaster's department put
In a rather light days work yesterday.
The issuance of the shirts to companies
was finished. The boys row have
much more soldierly appearance, and
they find considerable comfort in be-
ing able to go to drill without their
El0uses. Sunday the Quartermaster
will issue rations fer eleven days, or
till the end of the month.
Yesterday Maj. Edwin had his the
Third, battalion out for drill. The
major was very much pleased at the
way the drill went off.
TOdFg, and every Saturday hereafter
according to a bulletin posted yester-
day, the regular inspection will be held
ing sounded at 1 :55 p. m.
Sergeant Kelly, who received the
state flag from Mrs. Hill Thursday
night, was member of Company B,
not of E. 1t was obviously, appropriate
that a st. Paul man should be color
sergeant and that a St. Paul company
should escort the colors.

The guards were kept busy all day
picking uD the men who have been
spending their time and money In
town since pay day. A supernatural
ance of prisoners are in the guard
house, and many men are yet out who
will have a good term Of service at
hard labor when they return. All of
Company's rs cook detail went off Oh
a foraging expedition the night after
they were paid and forgot to return in
time for breakfast next morning. One,
in fact, is not back yet, but the rest
are in the tent down by the gate and
Company 1 has to get along with a
substitute detail.
st. Paul has great reason to be proud
of Company B, Fifteenth Minnesota.
That company holds the honor Of hav-
ing the fewest number absent without
leave and the fewest number ON sick
report
Company A last evening presented
Capt. Barrows with a Colts revolver
the duplicate Of that given Lieut.. Vim
cent Thursday.
Can't. Spicer, Company D, was visit
ed Yesterday by Russell Spicer.

of Capt. Bond, the guard house waits
