A Watertown dispatch says that on
the recommendation of Governor r. S.
Vessey, Charles II. Englesby, adjutant
general South Dakota National Guard,
and J. II. Holmes, colonel command
ing the Fourth infantry, Col. Alfred s.
Frost will, as soon as the papers can
be returned from Washington, be de-
tailed as regular army instruction
officer for the South Dakota national
guard.
Colonel Frost was In command of
the First South Dakota volunteers at
the outbreak Of the Spanish-American
war, and led the regiment in the Phil
ippine Islands. He was on duty in
South Dakota previous to that war as
instructor in military tactics at Brook
ings college, and also as military sec
retary to Governor Lee, who at the
outbreak of the war detailed him to

Colonel Frost has the reputation of

mentioned for gallantry on several oc-
casions, and was at the head of the
best organized regiment that ever
fought in the Philippines.
At the time of the muster out there
was factional feeling among the Off
GERS, and Colonel Frost took up his
residence at Evanston, Ill. Here he
served for two years as chief of police,
and headed reform movement for the
Office of mayor He was defeated by
q votes.
