SAVANNAH SPORTS LOSE.

They Backed Charleston in the Big
Cooking Main and Are Out S 200.
The Savannah sports who went over to
Charleston last week are struggling back
home, the most of them with empty pockets.
The big cooking main between Savannah
and South Carolina on one side and Augusta
and North Carolina on the other ended
disastrously for the Savannah and South
Carolina men. They are out something like
$1,000, most of which went to Augusta.
The fight was the first in six years in which
South Carolina, when represented by the
Barnwell game cocks, lost the laurels,
Georgia won in the main by one fight,

FOOT BALL ALL THE GO.
Savannah Sets the Mark for the State
in Athletics

Savannah Sets the Mark for the State
in Athletics.
Savannah has set the entire state apoR
about foot ball, and teams are being organ
lied in many other cities
Up to the time of the game between the
G. l.. A. and Y. M. H. A. on New Years
day foot ball was only a sport known In
Georgia, outside OF a college or two, by the
newspaper reports OF northern contests. But
since then the game seems to have sprung
into great favor with Georgians, and before
long the state will have big reputation in
this line of athletics.
Atlanta organized team week or two
ago, and. like everything else connected
with that city, the people began TO blow Of
its superiority over everything else in the
state and the newspapers spoke Of the team
as champions, although as yet it hasn't
played a game with any other team.
lt was said to be the purpose OF the At
lanta foot lballists to challenge the success
full college team between Mercer and the
university, but while talking about the
challenging the Atlantians were
themselves challenged. Toe Catho-
invited the Capital City kickers to meet
them on the field, and il they decide TO ac-
oept they will have ample opportunity of
finding out a thing or two about champion
ships. we
So far no definite conclusion has been ar
rived at, although correspondence is being
carried on. The challenge is for a series Of
games, to be played equally between the
two cities. Capt. Connolly OF the library
association team has his men in splendid
condition, and If the Atlantians tackle them
they will find out that talk doesn't consti-
tute championship.
The second game between the Young
Mems Hebrew Association and the Catholic
Library Association has been declared of.
because the former team wasn't willing to
repeat the experience of New Years day.
This action involved a forfeit which had
been put up as guarantee for the series.

The Companies Drilling Actively in

All the white military Of the city has
begun drilling In the new tactics, and the
companies are making very good progress,

drilled under Upton's rules. 1t is probable
that display of some of the movements of
the new tactics will be given by the regi-

The Cadets are highly elated over the
complimentary allusion made to them by
Lieut.. Satterlee In his speech at the dinner
of the Sons of the Revolution, in which he
alluded to them as being the finest drilled
body Of soldiers he had ever seen. That
the Cadets will get first place among Geor-
gsa's troops was a foregone conclusion
for some time but the kind words of Lieut..
Setterlee makes the Cadets feel dorhly proud
Of their achievements. The corps deserves
every word of praise that can be bestowed
upon it. Capt. Brooks and the members
have worked hard 10 bring iG I'D 10 its pres
ent splendid standard, and the fact that the
Cadets leads everything military in Georgia
is but the reward Of hard and incessant
work.
The Republican Blues are improving at a
lively rate in drilling, and that CORPS Is now
about the furthest advanced In the new
tactics. Capt. Dixon has been doing con-
siderable quiet but effective work in this
line with his command.
The Greens are counting on turning cut
at least 100 men on st. Patrick's day. Last
year the company had out over 90, and this
year it is hoped to increase to 100 or over.
After the parade the corps will probably
banquet at the armory.

Sam is n good judge of coffee and sew

cup of the amber fluid, if made by n
competent person, would be especially
grateful to his palate on the morning
after the important business meeting.
So | arose early and built fire in the
range. Half an hour later I built
another, because the first had gone out.
