Other Notes.

ISLAND LAKE, May 20. 1895
A banquet at Camp Eaton is come
ching rarely ever heard OF, but the recep
ton given the officers OF the Thirty
fourth regiment last evening by Colonel
Petermann as fitting inaugural to the
new regiment which had that afternoon
been mustered into the service OF the
United States and a welcome TO the
two new majors OF the regiment, Majors
Latimer and Winans, was something the
like of which Island Lake has meyer seen
before and which will long be remem-
bered by the officers who we're present.
Two large tents were pitched in the
rear OF the Colonels quarters and the
three tents opened into one another,
Then large tables were run the entire
length OF the three tents and there was
gust room enough TO accommodate the
officers present, who included the staff
officers of the Thirty-third and the
United States officers who have been de-
tailed for duty here and also some OF the
state officers. Governor Pingree was
unable to be present, having had to 60
TO Detroit but be sent his regrets.
The banquet had been arranged under
the direction OF Lieutenauts Scranton OF
the 500 and Thielman of Calumet, and
their previous reputation in this line was
fully established lsst evening, particu
larly when the difficulties under. way
iahored are remembered. A neighboring
farmer was brought to help and he a.
his good wife prepared the eatables for
the OCCASION The spread that was set
before the guests was one which is rarely |
ever seen IN a city banquet hall and the !
menu consisted OF everything that could |
have been asked for. There was music |
furnished for the occasion by couple Of |
Drivates who played the mandolin and |
guitar and later in the evening the new |
band put in an appearance and rendered |
some patriotic selections, which were
heartily applauded by the officers.
Toasts we're drank and three cheers
given Tor the various prominent officers |
of the two regiments and for Governor
Pingree aud General Irish and at last |
cheers went up for the fl 4g and for Uncle
Sam that made the weary sentry on duty
outside think something OF unusual i'm
portance bad taken place. Major Win
ans PROPOSED the most popular toast of
the evening: "To our absent wives and
sweethearts," ana the cheers that went
up after it showed that it struck home
20 the hearts OF all When the guests de
parted it was with warm place in their
hearts for the popular colonel of the
GUcK.
