Lieutenant Colonel Weybrecht pre-.
sided at the meeting. II was decided
TO SEND A DETAIL
to the camp grounds in advance of the
regiment to erect tents and put other
things in readiness for the command
The detail will be made up of three pri-
Yates from each company and will be
in charge of two or three non-com-
missioned officers, subject to the or
ders of Captains Fisher and hughes
who will be on the grounds two or
three days before the arrival of the
regiment.to direct the work of getting
matters in shape. The soldiers, OFF,
GERS and men, will wear leggins, the
regulation blue shirt and campaign
hats while in camp. The blouse and
cap will not be. used, which is sensi-
bic rule % follow in hot weather. The
regiment will he paid before breaking
camp and each member will be assess
ed about 81 to cover the cost of trans
portation to and from Buffalo. 1t is
probable steamer will be chartered
for the trip. Several lake companies
have submitted propositions for the
transportation of the troops and 1t is
likely contract with one of them
will be closed in few days. II takes
usually 23 hours to go from Toledo
to Buffalo by boat, and If a steamer is
not chartered the regiment will have
to transfer at Cleveland. which would
mean much bother and delay. 1t is
planned to spend three entire days in
the white city. Excellent quarters
have been secured for the regiment
Each man will be required to furnish
his own subsistence.
No rules will be promulgated for
the Buffalo trip. Every soldier will be
placed on his honor to deport himself
properly, as was the case when the
regiment went to Washington to at
tend the inauguration of President
Mckinley. The behavior of the men
on that occasion
WAS ABOVE REPROACH
and there is no reason to thiIk It will
not he so on the coming trip. In Or
dering the use of campaign hats and
regulation blue shirts the object is to
dispel the notion that the regiment is
for dress parade principally and to
show that it is capable of hard service
when this is necessary. Each COM
pany is entitled to two civilian cooks
The officers reported the companies to
be fully prepared for the encampment
Only about two companies are short
on mon. Captain Domer, of Canton,
made requisition for few camp sup
plies Yesterday. and states that Com
pany G is now equipped with every
thing needful. He expects to receive
his commission shortly as commander
of his company. He and Captain
Fisher returned to Canton Wednesday
evening. Major Lee, of -Wadsworth,
stated that Company g. of that place,
and Company F. of Akron, both Of
which are in his battalion-the third.
expected to compete in the military
contests at the state fair in August
Company d, of Wooster. is sure to en-
ter. All three companies are drilling
almost every other night to get into
good trim. d company is said to be
the richest military organization in
the state. II has over $1,000 in its
treasury, and recently held an enter
tainmcnt which yielded something
over 800 to the good, which, however.
was not considered anything unusual
by the members.
