LAKE CITY, Mimi, July 1.-This
was Governors day at Camp Lakeview
and Hon David NJ. in all his military
glory, made a sort of birdseye inspec-
ton of the tented city at this place.
Minnesota's chief executive, accom-
paired by his high ranking staff,
stepped off at the Lakeview depot-so-
called-at just o'clock. The awful din
of the governors salute that came out
of a smoking gatling gun, Immediately
after the arrival Of Minnesota's Re-
publican leader, sounded very much
like the afterclap of Democratic con-
vention, and more than one of DaVid's
followers wore a worried look till the
last shot had been fired. The governor
ard party were conducted to the cosy
little .hofor" cottage by the big mill
tary guns of the camp, and after
short siege of hand-lifting, his COVER
norship and friends spent an hour IN
Col. Bobleter's military dining room.
Bobleter's boys themselves had a rath-
er hasty meal, and then hustled to get
ready for the big review.
1t was Just about o'clock when the
gallant Seconds tin musket-carrlers
found a line in front of the staff tents
preparatory to marching out on the
parade ground. Every man was dressed
ready for war, and carried knapSacK,
canteen and ALL and the regular army
SLOUGH hat topped off the military bear
ing of every one of Col. Bobleter's sons.
The colonel himself, on gallant-chest-
mt charger. oversaw the formation
and seemed anxious as to the outcome
no
course. Governors day is the chief
event of a regiments short stay, ana
every colonel is anxious for his soldiers
to make the best showing possible.
Mai. Whitney, the veteran militiaman
from Faribault, was just the least pit
dilatory in getting his paraphernalla
adjusted, and this caused Bobleter TO
look still more worried. Hurry up,
major" said the colonel. "Oh, never
mind me-" replied the major, putting
his sword in position, and giving MS
a la Bobleter goatee another STROKE
will be there in minute.
The Second Regiment band started
thrilling two-step, and with Drum MAJ.
Charley Feiser of st. Paul, in pair
of duck trousers and a very much
French mustache, started off to the
parade ground across the track. The
governor and staff, all mounted, soon
followed. and everything was ready
for the big review.
The evening, was oppressively hot,
buts this detracted nothing at all from
the excellency of the review. and the.
whole affair went off smoother than

Clough made no statements to the
effect, but the fact is nevertheless true

extended clear across the drill ground.

Col. Page, of the regular army, gave
the commands and was an important
factor in making the big review line
make a show.
The review itself passed off without
a hitch and was the finest thing of its
kind ever seen at Camp Lakeview.

and shortly after the governors bat

attendants carried to the ambulance
and then carried to the hospital. 1t was
very realistic affair and would do
credit to a number one stock company.
The governor and party, of course took
in the dress parade and saw everything
worth seeing around camp. The party
left camp on the o'clock train for st.
Paul.
The best of feeling exists between the
two camps and last night Col. Pages
