vice OF the United States. after cam
paigning FOR thirteen months, a portion
OF tie time in Cuba, the matter of hold
ing,a reunion has been under discus
sion and consideration. A suggestion to
hold the first reunion in this city last
fall during the carnival met with con-
siderable favor, but was finally aban-s
doned for the reason that the boys had
turned in their uniforms and arms, and

Some OF the members of Company C
have now conceived the idea of inviting
the companies of the regiment here next

following the formal dedication of the

evening with competitive drill in the;
Auditorium, for which it is proposed to
offer liberal prizes. Officers of the COM
pany yesterday consulted with Band
master Phinrey in regard to furnishing
the music for the occasion, and with the
directors Of the Auditorium Company
relatiye8to the plan, and met with much
encouragement from both.
1T Is probable that 400 or 500 of the
boys of the old Forty-ninth would take
advantage of the opportunity to once
more meet their comrades in arms and
talk over the past. The spectacle OF this

Uncle Sam. in competitive drill would
be sight never to be forgotten. 1t Is
the idea of the boys to close the event
with promenade and grand military
ball.
THE matter OF the Forty-ninth Iowa

the night following will be definitely de-
cided upon in the course Of day or
two. and 1t is believed that little trou-
bic will be experienced In securing low
