grand, sad mistake, and that the
two trim-looking, gallant companies
must return to their home without even
| so much as looking at Camp Lakeview.
And when Company E, of the Third,
torty-tour men, arrived from Spring
valley at the camp, even more surprise
was manifest, and the great blunder
was the one topic of the day. No one
was found TO shoulder the. blame. but
there was no mystery about the affair.
Col. Wright, in notifying the various
companies of his command that
the Third regiment had been re-
instated, failed to say that
the order sending five Of the companies
into camp with the First and Second
or, rather, making them part Of those
regIments-had been received. No new
order having been issued, the only
course left open for them was to follow
the official Instructions already received
and on record. Col. Bobleter did
not care to say much on
the subject, simply maintaining, in
most emphatic language, that he was
not to blame, inasmuch as the three
companies were not under his COM
mand after the Third regiment was re-
instated. Inspector General Bunker
would not express himself as TO whom
he considered responsible, preferring to-
look npon the matter simply as an
Unfortunate Circumstance.
Capt. Allen, of the Spring Valley
company, was naturally much ''rattled'i
when Adjt. Gen. Mullen, who was i'm
camp, gave orders to return home. But
it could not be helped. and. like a good
soldier, he quietly got his command
aboard the first available train
and quit the camp. AS to whether
his company would return on the
9th with the Third regiment, he could
not say. Col. Bobleter drilled the bat,
talon this afternoon for an 'hOur, and
appeared we'll satisfied with the moves
ments. The first guard-mount and
dress parade took place this evening,
the detail for the ensuing twenty-four
hours being Capt. l.. ID. Frost. officer of
the day senior officer of the guard, Lieut..
ant, G II. Brink; junior officer, Lieut..
GaIlien. The entire Company G.. of Wi
mona, does guard duty for the time
stated, another entire company reliev-
ing them tomorrow night at o'clock.
This vii. be the plan throughout the
camp. Following is
