THE GOVERNORS REVIEW

1HoTe we're more V1S1lOrS TO camp HUB
bard at White Bear yesterday than on
Sunday. Saltwater furnished about 500;
nearly twice that number came from Min
neapolis and st. Paul, including large del
egations from Red Wing, Fergus Falls and
Litchfeld, numbering three thousand or
more. The Saltwater company was
especially favored in the presence of hun
dreds of lady friends who made themselves
at home in camp and were delighted with
everything connected with their company
The st. Paul and Minneapolis companies
came next in the numbers of visitors
while the three other companies could at
least count their visitors by scores. At
review, dress parade and guard mount
there were not less than 5000 spectators
more than half of whom were
ladies. The prominent event of the day
was the
GOVERNORS REVIEW.
Governor Hubbard and his military staff,
accompanied by Mrs. Hubbard and friends
and members of the families of officers Oh
the staff, went to White Bear by the train
leaving st. Paul at 4:50 p. NJ, having
special car assigned to them by the super
intendent of the Duluth road. Soon after
o'clock the governors party entered the
camp in carriages and we're driven direct
ly to headquarters where they were re-
ceived by Col. Bend and other officers
of the regiment, while the governors salute
of seventeen guns was being fred under
direction of Capt. Bean and Sergeant Saw
yer. Shortly afterward the regiment was
formed for review, and the line was the
best dressed the regiment has yet formed
The reviewing party consisted of the gov
ernor, escorted by Col. Bend, Br. Gen.
Hawley, adjutant general; Br. Gen. Muir
ply, surgeon general; Br. Gen. Wilson,
quartermaster general; Col. Van Cleve, in
spector general; Col. Gould, aide de camp;
Lieut.. Col. Lawson, captain Twenty fifth
.. S. infantry, Capt. Mccarthy, EN-
met light artillery; Col. Bobleter, Sec
ond battalion, and others. The march of
the regiment in review was very good. All
the companies maintained good lines even
in wheeling and three of the Oldest COM
panies were about as perfect in line as
veterans could move. In wheeling into
line after the review the orders were not
heard at the right and an awkward gap
was opened on the right wing, and the bat
talon line this time showed the old fault
of both wings receding from the color
guard instead of being in line with each
other. Parade exercises passed off nicely
and the regiment exhibited
great improvement in uniformity
Of time and step in the var
ious exercises, but the marching from the
line by companies, as seen from the left
flank was on the start inferior to the same
movement on previous nights. The COM
pany lines were Strengthened quickly, how
ever, and before they turned to march by
the flank all were moving with nearly as
handsome fronts as they presented on the
review. The guard mount interested all
the spectators and was an attractive sight.
All through the parade and mount the
band was correct in every detail of its
movements. and the music was we'll select
ed and finely performed.
CAMP NOTES.
In D company's target practice yester-
day Col. Lawson and DR.. Davenport were
leaders of two teams of six. The possible
score ten shots per man), was 800. Law
sons team made 10 and Davenport's 100.
The best individual scores were: Col. Law
son IS, Sergeant Sawyer 81, Sergeant
Hampton 80 and Corporal Luther go
No answer has yet been
received from the regular
army officers on the Ilges court martial
who we're invited to visit the camp and re-
view the regiment, but it is hoped they
will come out this afternoon.
Most of the boys IN camp regret that
the camp time is so nearly over. They see
that their gain as military companies,
from the regular drill and discipline of
the camp, is very rapid and feel that
another week would be still more useful
to them. Besides, they are having a good
time since they became acquainted with
each other, and also the new companies
are anxious to wipe out the differences
still apparent between their drill and that
of the old companies.
There was good deal of sociability and
fun in camp last evening. One of the
companies got up an impromptu and fan
tastic parade for the benefit of the rest,
singing clubs were organized, and visiting
parties got up to call on all the neighbors
were quite numerous. At $50
D company, by invitation, pro-
ceeded to II company's quarters, but what
sort of entertainment the D boys were to
have was kept secret by II company until
after the reporters had left the camp.
Quite number of the boys went home
with their friends last night, expecting to
return by the early trains this morning. At
$40 there were six crowded cars for Still
water, and the train for st. Paul consisted
of twenty-five cars carrying so many
people that hundreds could not be provided
with seats. Yet it was estimated that there
was over a thousand people left behind to
come in on the 20 train.
The lakeside concert by the Great West
ern band and the dance at Ramaley's
pavilion was a great attraction last night
and camp rules were relaxed so as to let
about hundred of the young soldiers at
tend it.
BREAKING CAMP.
The regular routine of the camp will be
followed until o'clock tomorrow morn
ing when preparations for breaking camp
will begin. At o'clock the regiment will
leave White Bear by the st. Paul & Duluth
railway for Minneapolis. At Minneapolis it
will march through some of the principal
streets and may pass in review before the
mayor and other distinguished citizens.
At 10 o'clock, probably, the regiment will
proceed by the Milwaukee short line road
to st. Paul and will march from the union
depot by Third, Cedar and Wabashaw
streets to the capitol, for a final review by
