DUST STORM STOPS DRILL Camp Alvin Baundera Ewapt by a Strong South Breeze , SOME SICKNESS INVADES THE CAMP Twenty-two Anirrer Sick Call , bat Only Four Are Excuned Note * on the Life of the Doyn In Tenti. LINCOLN. April 29. ( Special. ) This morning the weather was fair and the mllltU boys at Camp Alvin Saundera looked forward to a fair day for the drill and pa rade. But the wind soon came up and by noon there was a dsagreeable dust storm prevailing , which took mush of the pleasure and romance out of camp life. In the after noon the storm grew worse. Drill was cut short and the visitors who had gone out expecting an afternoon of pleasure In watchIng - Ing the evolution. ; of the troops went back to the city In dltgust. TIio" officers and members of the hospital corps went through the camp on a tour of Inspection this morning , and except In a few oiscs , found the tents and mces outfltn In good order. This Inipectton will be regular hereafter , and the men will be compelled to obey tde sanitary rulra and take good care of themselves. One case waa found today where one of the men had hurl hi ? foot badly while putting up tents Wednesday afternoon , lie had been well looked after by his comrades , but the accident tad not been reported to the proper officers , the man feeing fearful that be might be discharged lor disability. Tbo rigid rutea will provide for the Immediate reporting of euch cases thereafter. This morning twenty-two men reported at the hospital and four ot them were excused from duty on account ot sickness. The others were suffering from colds or Indiges tion brought on because of their sudden change from ordinary pursuits to camp life , tut were not so III ej to prevent them from taking part In the usual drill. SOME ARE DISCHARGED. Since being ordered Into camp the follow- In : discharges from the guard have been made : Physical disability , 9 ; own applica tion , for business and other reasons , 19 ; non-residents. 8 ; expiration time ot service , > ; without honor , 1. The women of Lincoln , assisted by others from over the state , formed an organiza tion and served the boys of the camp with a lunch. Four to eacfc company were de tailed to distribute the eatables and the vent was one long to be remembered. There was a plentiful supply of cake , pies and fruit distributed , making an agreeable addition to the army bill of fare. The strict enforcement of tbo rules last Ycntng caught a large number ot the boyu and about 100 of them spent a short time la tht guard house. Through a miiunJer- standing of the Interpretation ot a rule ten members of the Otnaba Guard were taken In by the sentries , but were nnon released. Howard Pulver , company A , of the Second end , from Kearney , was discharged today , being under age and his parents withholding their consent. There are a number ot cases where parents had permitted their sons to join the National Guard and who now seek to withdraw their consent , In order to pre vent the boys from being sent to the front. When applications of this sort are made at headquarters the parents are told that they cactiot now prevent < he boyi from going un less the boys themselves present applica tions tor discharge. ' During the wind storm this afternoon the mess tent of the Falrbury company blew down and disarranged the tables and eating utensils. A large number of the ordinary tents in the camp were somewhat disar ranged by the wind. Quartermaster Woods of the Omaha Guards got In today from Centralta , 111. , and took up his duties with the company. CATLING GUN PLEASES THEM. The drill of the Catling gun section of the Guards this afternoon attracted much at tention and the regimental officers pro nounced the drill to be of a high order ot efficiency. On account of the dust the teams of vis itors will not be allowed on the grounds hereafter. Mr. and Mrs. Donmaa of Omaha presented the Omaha Guards with a barrel of apples tills afternoon. Cadet Taylor came down from Omaha to day , bringing a present for the Thurston Rifles In the shape of a handsome silk flag. Governor Holcomb made the presentation speech to the company , and It Is said to have been the best speech the governor ever made. The day has been a very pleas&nt one at the camp and the drilling Is progress ing In a most satisfactory manner. It Is estimated that It will take three days more to adJ the nineteen extra men to each com pany and get the whole body of troops ready to turn over to the War department. Yesterday while Henry Lutz , cornetlst In the First regiment band , was driving Into camp from town ho had a runaway which rcr.-ulted In his being spilled out la the read. A bruised band'was the only Injury sus tained. Company I ot the Secoal , which was mus tered In at Tecumseh last week , was a very unmllltary looking company when It reached the camp Wednesday evening. None of the members bad uniforms , and aside from a few hurried Instructions from Captain Hugh Lamaster before leaving home , they were totally In the dark regarding drill end tac- tlca. They have been doing bard work since reaching the camp , cod with their new uni forms they now preient a very orderly ap pearance. The new company from Cbadron Is also gett'og rapidly Into good shape , and In the course of a few days will compare fa > orably with ttio others on the parade ground. BANiD WILL COME HOQHX The First Regiment band hopes to'be dis charged so tbat the member * can return to Omaha tomorrow. It is now probable that the desired discharge will bo made. There are plenty of ban.,1 men ready to make up a. good organization to take the place of the Omaha band. A number of the new musicians will b recruited from Crete.

Some of the enlisted men In the various companies are good musicians and are anxious to be detailed for band duty. There are also a number of outside applications for positions in the new band , and It Is thought at headquarters that a very creditable or ganization can be made , by the time the regiments are ready to be mustered In. The Omaha Guards have a standard In front of their headquarters In the shape ot a largo "Good Luck" horseshoe , made up In the national colors , the decoration being- very attractive. As a proof ot the ; good luck that follows the raUlng ot such an appro priate standard the bays were presented with a large and delicious cake this morn. Ing at mess , being the offering of some ad- mlr'ug 'women. The Guards have no Idea who sent the cake , and finding that It con tained no Spanish mines or torpedoes they added It to the bill of fare today , and > were duly thankful. During the afternoon some pies strayed tate the tents of the Thurston RlflcB In an equally mysterious manner. Tie boys from Schuyler , who form com pany K of the Second , 'have put up a sign In front of their section of the camp , calling themselves the "Neverswcats. " Their cap tain says , however , that the boys will do their full share of "sweating" when th time comes. REQI-ISITIOX FOR WIUl/TAM SMITH. Return of nil Aliened Hurnlnr front Iowa.

Owing to leaks from the War department of so grave a character concerning proposed operations against Spaniards , orders were Iraued today abso lutely prohibiting officials to talk about plans , aivl should this prove Ineffective It i * expected complete censorship will be es tablished over all war news going out o ! this city.

Senator Allen today secured In the naval appropriation bill an amendment providing that no battleship or monitor shall be named for any peran or place until after names of states liave been exhausted.
