Before the large majority of the
REVIEW readers will have perused this
issue Camp Hubbard, so named in hon
or of the COMMUNICATIVE chief, Gov. Luz
cius F. Hubbard, will be all animation
and life. The camp is located on a
beautiful plateau in the north part of
the city, and distant only about a ten
minutes walk from the post Office, be
ing much nearer to the centre of the
city than was the camp of three years
ago. One hundred and eighty tents
have been pitched for the accommodation
of the troops. Two sheds, each 154
feet long, will afford shelter for the
horses, both cavalry and artillery At the
main entrance, and Immediately in the
rear of the guard tents, is located the
sutler stand, adjoining which is the Of
fcers mess room. The water supply is
derived from we'll, sunk on the ground
especially for the occasion. The water
is brought to the surface by one Of the
celebrated Phelps windmills and dis
tributed to the several companies
through pipes, there being a hydrant at
each company kitchen. The Phelps
Wind Mill Co, of Minneapolis have put
in this system of water works gratui-
tously, the committee only being asked
to pay for laying and taking up the
pipes. If the water in the well holds
out, the arrangement will be q great
accommodation to the encampment.
Another pleasant feature of the camp
is the manner of lighting it on dark
nights. Ten new street lamps have
been distributed over the camp grounds
four being in front of the company
streets, two on company officer street,
two on headquarters street, one at bat
terry headquarters and one at the main
entrance near the guard tents. As there
is no moon until near morning during
encampment week, the arrangements
made for lighting the camp cannot but
give satisfaction. Visitors will be well
come in camp at all hours between
a. NJ and 10 p. m.
The following is roster of the
troops to encamp in this city today:
