The arrival of the Second regiment in camp
yesterday was without especial event The
routine was taken up Immediately and guard
mounting was held at p. m. The regular
annual inspection of the companies will take
place on next Monday, and Colonel Bobleter
expects to finish it up in day. The colo
mel was very much surprised on arriving in
camp to find that the Third regiment had
left things in such shape. The camp grounds
had not been policed and the kitchens of
some of the mess halls were in most sloppy
condition. A delegation of Lake City citi-
zens paid their respects to Colonel Bobeter
this afternoon and extended an invitation
for the officers of the regiment to be present
at reception to be rendered during the en-
campment, and requested the colonel to set
the day for the event. The colonel accepted
the invitation and selected the day the gov
srnor will be here to review the troops.
which will be on June g.

The guard mounting, as carried out at 4
p: M, was in khaki. The ceremonies here
after will all be carried with the new
shirts and trousers.
