Arrangements tor the Na:ieaal Encampmsa'
In Philadelphia.

Commander Frederick Robbie has is
sued circular letter to the G. A. r.
posts in Maine as follows:
The assistant adjutant general has
just returned from making arrange
ments in Philadelphia for the national
encampment in September The de-
partment commander hopes that every
mmber of the department of Maine will
attend the encampment who can pos
sibly do so. Headquarters of the de-
partment will be at the Continental
hotel. where national headquarters will
be located. and those Of most Of the
prominent departments.
The rush for hotel accommodations
is already very great. and those VINO
desire rooms at any of the hotels must
file their applications Immediately In
order to insure any accommodation
whatever. We have option OF few
rooms at the Continental hotel at $3.50
per day, for each person. two or more
in a room, which we shall be able to
hold for a few days only, and prefer
ence will be given to those who apply
at once.
There are other hotels on the list,
where board can be obtained at from
$l.50 to $500 per day. These are good
second-class hotels. but at these also
the demand is already very great and
applications should be made at once in
order to insure any accommodation.
Free quarters will be provided in the
public halls and armorieS for those who
wish to avail themselves of such. In
=, n,N,tt tao. Frrr
nishes one mattress for each comrade.
Comrades occupying these quarters
must provide themselves with the
necessary blankets and towels. and can
obtain their meals at restaurants at
prices ranging from IL cents upwards.
The railroad fare from Portland to
Philadelphia and return Will probably
be about $40. with the addition of one
fare for the round trip from all points
on the Maine Central to and from Port
land 1t is possible that other arrange
ments may be made that will some
what reduce the fare. as above stated.
1t will not in any case exceed the
above. and may be considerably less.
Full and exact particulars Will be CIV
en- in general orders.
The main point for consideration at
this time. however. is that of hotel ac-
and this must be settled
at once. Please advise the assistant
adjutant general by return mail if you
intend to go, what accommodations you
desire, and for how many persons;
stating also whether ladies or gentle
men. 1t is the intention and desire to
do everything possible for the comfort
and convenience of the comrades. and
to insure this they must be prompt in
to this request.
Sincerely yours in F. c. and L..

STATE HOUSE.
Some Of Maine Artillery Will Enter the
Regular Service.
Secretary McKcen Preparing the April Bulletin
Other Happenings.

The officers OF the list Maine Heavy
Artillery are not very communicative
in these days when they are rushing
to get all the papers in order for the
muster out Friday. In consequence the
letters received from them are not very
numerous, even General Richards hav-
ing to.be contented with one at rare in
tervaIs, unless they are written for in
formation regarding the papers or
some one of the men.
General Richards said. Wednesday,
he had no doubt but that many OF the
men of the list Maine would enlist in
the regular service, for the whole bat
TALON is not eager to leave the service
though the majority of them are. There
are many young men WHO would look
forward with eagerness to a campaign
in the Philippines, for the army life
loses some of it's dizziness when there
is brush in anticipation. There are
those men who enjoy thinking of
battle. and though they may be fright
ened when in it. they forget it after
wards and are as eager for another.
Many of the men too have found that
the life in the army is not the hardest
kind of a way to earn living, and they
are eager to remain in the service.
This, of course. as rule applies to
those who have few family ties to hold
them at home.
In regard to the officers of the bat
talon they are about all expected home.
though some may later receive APP
pointments to commissions in the reg
ular service on account of their eX
perience. Several of the officers have
their intentions of settling
down in civil life once more. and they
say they are glad to do it now that
their chance of seeing real campaign
ing is over.
