The troop has been in the habit of holding banquets every year since it's organl- 2ation seven years ago. Instead of banquet it was decided to have Dutch supper for the good and suf- ficient reason that monster banquet is planned for next October in com parison with which the former af- fairs of this nature in years past will be of the diminutlve variety It seems that in the fall will come the hundredth anniversary of the estab lishment of the Second company of the Governors Horse Guard, of which the present organization of Troop A came as an offspring seven years ago
 At the time of the monster centen- ary celebration planned for next fall every veteran of the organization who can possibly be present in New Haven may be counted on as to be here. Every effort will be made to make the big banquet one which New Ha- ven will long remember.
 The Dutch supper last evening was, as Its name suggests, of very in- formal order. The fun Increased as the evening wore on, as Is quite usual ly the case with Troop A affairs. Aft CT Caterer Louis Metzger had served an excellent repast the funny men of the troop and actors were let loose good and plenty. They were suppl- mented in their efforts In the laugh line by Prof w. Manning Reynolds and his daughter, who gave a very good musical act, following which Prof. Reynolds gave q monologue, which doubled up all his hearers.
 Joseph Sutherland of the Grays was the only other non-troop man called into the festivities In as up to date an Irish costume as ever sallied forth from Dublin or Cork he gave little monologue and song act that he called "A Bunch of Irish Nonsense And true 1t was to it's title for the laughs came in punches that kept the troor members in a hilarious mood.
 Some of the members of the trooJ who took part In the entertainment and publication were John H. Brdwer Otto Metz, Frank Cargill and Adolpt Krahl.
 The committee m charge of the din. nor was composed of the following Sergeant Samuel W. Smith, Sergeant Iepry Lord Sergeant John Hugo Quartermaster Dwight B, Snow, and Corporal C. s. Jones.
