BANDMASTER lITTLETON ONCE
MORE YIELDS BATON WITH
FOURTH CAVALRY BAND.
Notes With Pleasure Many Improve
ments Made In Walia WaIIa
During His Absence.

William S. Littleton, bandmaster Of
the Fourth Cavalry band, has ar
rived at the garrison, and assumed
charge of the band. Mr.. Littleton has
been on a three months furlough.
ct is a great pleasure to be back
in Wal1a Walla again." said Profess
sor Littleton this morning. There is
no place in the country that has such
a climate as the WaIla Walla val
ley. When 1 left Fort Riley several
weeks ago the thermometer registered
80 degrees below zero and there was a
large fall of snow. l notice that
Walla Walla has made rapid strides
toward becoming a city since 1 left
with the Fourth Cavalry band in 1898.
The many new buildings, the paving
of the streets and the many other
improvements are certainly to be
commended"
Professor Littleton was stationed at
Fort Walla Walla from 1893 until
1898, when the Fourth Cavalry was
ordered to the Preside at San Fran
cisco. After remaining there several
months the regiment and band We're
sent to the Philippines WI ere they did
service until 1901 being returned that
year to the United States and ordered
to take station at Fort Riley
Bandmaster Littleton states that ne
has several new musicians coming
from the east and in short time he ex-
poets to have the Fourth Cavalry
band in first class shape. This was
one of the best bands in the service
prior to the Spanish-American war
and Professor Littleton hopes to soon
have the organization up to its old
standard. He is thorough musician
and is considered one of the most
popular and leading bandmasters in
the United States army.
