MINNESOTA AND SOUTH DAKOTA HOME TOGETHER Two Famous Regi ments Now in Camp. If it is true that all the world loves a lover, the place for the world to congre gate and enjoy Itself yesterday was the wharf where the big transport Sheriuan docked and discharged its heroic cargo of veterans, whom It has brought home across thousands of miles of ocean from the far-away land of fever and deau., where they have been for the last year and a half, winning honor for their flag and covering the two States that sent them forth with the luster of their achievements. When the transport drew Into the dock the old dusty wharf looked like a fairy flower garden filled with radiant Ameri can beauties, so crowded was it with the fair ones from Minnesota and South Da kota who had traveled westward to greet their heroes' return. As soon as the vessel came within speak ing distance femininity broke loose and messages of love and welcome Hew thick and fast, conveying in their passage the hearts of the senders to the bronzed and bearded men who hung over tlie ship's sides as though they were afraid to lose one weird of the tender welcome with which they were fairly showered. It took but a short time to make the transport fast to her birth, and then the troops were landed and formed along East street, where they patiently awaited the arrival of the escort that was to show them the way to the home that had been prepared for them In the Presidio. The troops who were to act as escort began to arrive shortly after the boys bad ail gut ashore, and at 9 o'clock the pro cession was ready to ttart on Its way up Market street, where the public had been waiting their arrival since early morn ing. The advance consisted of Batteries D, A, N and Light Battery O of the Third United States Artillery. Then came Troop C of the regular cavalry, which was followed by the men from South Dakota, under the command of Colonel Frost. Behind the last rank of veterans folluwed a number of carriages contain ing Congressmen Gamble and Burke, a number of invalided officers, with their mothers, wives and sweethearts, and a number of other carriages filled with rola tlves, friends arid more mothers, wives and sweethearts, whose heroes were not invalided. The carriages of the Minnesota contln g< nt followed, a-nd then the Minnesota regiment Itself, under the command of i>leutenant-Coionel Frederick, who rodo in advance with his two Majors, iilau and Bt-an, on either side of him. The parade was closed by three eoinnanies of the .North L>akuta Regiment, headed by their band. The band tiiat led liic pro cession was the one belonging to tho Third Artillery. All along the line of march the troops were wildly cheered, and when the soiled, stained and shot-riddled battle Hags went past there was great enthusiasm. Women pelted the troop.s with kisses and flowers while they alternately laughed and cried In a .sort uf a happy hysteria. They were not the only ones who had tears in their eyes, however. More than one of the stronger and supposedly sterner sex v. is seen to surreptitiously put a handker chief to his eyes under the cover of wip ing the moisture of excitement from his fi iren'ead. The line of march was along East street to Market, up ihal thoroughfare to Van Ness avenue and thence to the Presidio. At the corner of Van Ness avenue and Bußh street the men from the wars v.. i<> reviewed by Major Noble, acting fur Ma jor General Shatter. Upon arriving at the Presidio the men at once went into camp, and alter being allowed a few minutes' rest were pounced upon by their fellow soldiers and carried off to be breakfasted. The South Dakotas were taken rare of and treated to their initial meal by the North Dakota and Wyoming regiments, and the Minnesota boys were Looked after by the lads of our own city. As soon as their stomachs were ap peased the men started to work about camp getting their tents in such order an they could while welcoming the hosts of rs who crowded their quarters and overwhelmed them with Questions and congratulations. Though everything scorned pleasant and happy, there Is in both organizations a deal of internal trouble and 111 feeling, all of which has been publi.-hed in the col umns of this paper. Colonel Frost is at outs with Lieutenant Colonel Stover and a number of other officers, and his dis pleasure has resulted in the placing under arrest of his next in rank and also Major Warne, surgeon of ihe regiment, and First Lieutenant 11. C. Bates. This trouble in the South Dakota regiment originated In letters addressed by some of the enlisted men to Senator Pettigrew, In which they Bpoke of their colonel in a very uncom plimentary manner and characterized Ma jor Howard as a tyrant and an arrant coward. The officers under arrest are charged by their commanding ollieer with having instigated these epistles, or at least having lent the writers of them their moral support. A visit was paid to the prisoners yester day, but all attempts to induce them to talk of their trouble proved unavailing. They claimed that any discussion of tho affair for publication would be unmilitary and in very bad taste, and consequently refused to submit to any interview on this particular subject. It was easy to see, however, that they have no love for their commander, and the only sentiment they feel toward Howard is one of contempt. A little trip through the company streets easily revealed the fact that the men to a unit are with the arrested officers, and particularly Is this a fact In the case of Lieutenant Colonel Stover, whom they greatly admire. Tho situation In the Minnesota camp Is worse, If possible. Colonel Ames went out to the Presidio yesterday morning and assumed command of the regiment as soon as it arrived. That is about all he did assume as far as his officers were concerned. They left him severely alone, and he wandered around the little city of tents, speaking only to civilians and to the few officers who were compelled to address him In the course of the perform ance of their official duties. Both he and his officers refused to discuss the trouble In any way whatever. Not so with the men and those of the other regiment. Thrv do not seem to take the same view of the case as do the officers of the regi ment. They say that it Is a put-up job to down Ames, and that there is many a man who is now throwing mud at him who had feet cold enough to freeze water on August 13 when the regiment was or dered to support the Astor Battery and whdi the officers almost to a man laid down. Wherever the blame may lie, all the men and officers at the Presidio unite in condemning the reception accorded Colo nel Ames when he came aboard the trans port. They say that whatever the feeling that may exist between him and his offi cers. It was both cowardly and unman nerly for them to exhibit it before his wife. They should have had enough chiv alry, say these military critics, to have Fpa'rod a woman the pain that such a re ception must have caused the- wife of their colonel. The South Dakotas are proud of thoir record, and particularly of the number that have been chosen from among them to wear the shoulder straps in Uncle Sam's new regiments. Those who have received the honor and conferred distinc tion on the regiment are Lieutenant J. Q. A Braden, who was given a like rank In the Thirty-sixth Infantry: Captain Hage man, who was made captain in the same regiment; Sergeant Mann, given a sec ond lieutenantcy under Captain Hapeman; Lieutenant L. C. Foster, made captain in the Thirty-seventh; Sergeant Russell, made first lieutenant in the Thirty-sev enth; Lieutenant Young, who was given a captaincy In the Eleventh Cavalry, and Lieutenant S. J. Larsen. who was given the same rank In the same regiment. Th<- Sheridan brought home seventy-six invalided men, who were yesterday taken to the Presidio hospital. There are four Flight cases of typhoid among them, but none are so serious but what with proper mrdiclne and a little careful nursing they will bo brought around all right. Even we can't talk all the time. Come In and let the hats speak for themselves Mme. Alma Keith, Phelan building. • BRAVE SOLDIERS AT THE BANQUET BOARD MRS. A. S. TOWNSEND ENTER TAINS A FEW - EROES. Flags and Silver and Crystal Flow ers and Glittering Lights Make the Table Beautiful. Mrs. A. S. Townsend, the soldiers' true friend, gave an elaborate dinner last even ing al her home on California street. It was a patriotic dinner, and the glorious stars and stripes which many of the lady's guests followed to victory were used with exquisite effect to beautify the elegant home and lend effect to the banquet board. Exquisite crystal and gorgeous silver glistened on the table, and in the midst of it all were long-stemmed crimson carna tions and delicate ferns arranged in deli cate Venetian and old silver vases. The mime cards were tiny tents topped with miniature flags, 2nd tho boutonnicres placed at the plate of each truest con sisted of a single crimson carnation and Bprig 01 maidenhair tied with a narrow tri-colored ribbon. The 'conservatory open ing off the dining room looked like a bit of enchanted ground, with its little fairy lights twinkling in the midst of the many palms and rare exotics. Mrs Townsend received her guests, as sisted by Mrs. Bessie T. Smith and Miss N. J. Rattigan. The charming hostess wore an elegant gown of white brocade. The jupe was perfectly plain cut, with a demi-train. and the decollete corsage was finished off with exquisite duchesse lace. A magnificent collar of pearls and a dia mond orcsa were the only ornaments worn. Seated at the table were: Colonel C. 11. Murphy, W. J. Martin, • 'olnnel V. D. Du boce. Lieutenant 11. E.
