less Is not expected now, yet we are COM
posed of law abiding men with abundant
common sense to thoroughly understand
the trust reposed in us in this imposing
ceremony to-day. We recognize this
nag as the very embodiment of law and
order, for the preservation and protection
OF public and private property and inter-
ests, and as such, sir the First Battalion
Infantry, Georgia Volunteers, that re-
ceives IL, will follow and protect IL and
all that it represents with their honor and
their lives
Finally, sir, will say for the battal-
ion, that this flag shall never be dishon-
ored. We will maintain II with all the
power and force necessary to preserve II
in its purity and glory, so that neither
the governor nor yourself nor the country
shall have cause to blush and regret these
important and impressive ceremonies to
day. And when IN the course OF time
these colors Of red, white and blue, the
stars and stripes, shall become too old
for service, It will be carefully placed
away on the retired list, having the honor
and generation of us all-for 1t shall be
as pure and unsullied then as you pre-
sent It now.
When Col. Deveaux closed his speech
the crowd. composed mostly Of colored
people, gathered to witness the ceremony
cheered, and the music of the band COM
menced, while the color sergeant, with his
guard, marched around the wing of the
battalion to his place.
Adjutant Johnson then formed the bat

concluded, the manual of arms and the
school of the battalion was practiced
under command of Col. DeYeauX.

OFFICERS ON THE WATCH.
A Filibustering Movement Believed
to BE on Foot Near Here.

United States District Attorney Gary
arrived in Savannah last night in connec-
ton with the Dauntless case and the fill
clustering movement which it is rumored
is on foot somewhere in the vicinity of
Savannah. Just what the purpose of MS
visit is could not be learned.
United States Commissioner Beck
EFT returned from Brunswick yes
terday morning. Mr.. Beckett says
there was no clash of authority
among the United States officers over the
hearing of, the charges against the
Dauntiess' officers. There was a perfect
understanding between himself and Com
missioner Lehman, he said, and not a
word Of unpleasantness passed between
them. The people of Brunswick are great
~ stirred up over the matter, he saii,
and there is great deal of
OF feeling over the arrest of the men.
Commissioner Beckett was asked if any
other warrants have been sworn out. but
he declined to discuss the matter. 1t is
the pretty general opinion that the fed
eral officers are on the lookout for some
more that they are expecting to take place
soon.
A Brunswick dispatch to the Morning
News says there was no knock-down be-
tween Col. ]. E. duBignon and a member
Of the Morning Call staff over the Daunt-
less affair. The two gentlemen came to-
gether, but were separated before any Sc
rlous damage was done.

SAVANNAH ATHLETES ORGANIZE
The Athletic Association Started

number of Savannah's young ath-
letes met in the parlors of the Pulaski
House last night and formally organized
the Savannah Athletic Association. Mr..
Gordon Saussy was elected chairman and
Mr.. G. Noble Jones secretary of the meet
ing. The names of those present were
taken, and 1t was decided to canvass the
young men of the city and get as many
names as possible
For this purpose a resolution was passed
giving the chairman power to appoint a
committee, of which he should be the
chairman to do this work. The commit
tee named is as follows: Messrs. Gordon
Saussy, L. W. Walker, Howard Hopkins,
d. c. Barrow and r. c. O'Byrne.
The committee Will endeavor to get ev-
cry young man in Savannah to become a
member of the associa ton. The initiation
fee Is 81. Mr.. Saussy has written TO the
secretary of the New York Athletic As
ISOLATION for copy of the constitution
and bylaws Of that organization and by
laws and constitution Will be drafted
from them.
The association is not to be temporary,
but g TO be a permanent organization.
The committee appointed is empowered
10 apply for articles Of Incorporation, and
this Will be done Immediately.
The object Of The organizers Is TO have
kind of amateur sport will be introduced.
A foot BAH team has already been organ
lied. and is in daily practice. Base bail,
cycling, running, jumping, vaulung, putt
ting the shot, throwing the hammer, and
all field and track sports will be advo-
Gated.
The members hope to have athletic
grounds OF their own soon, with thor
oughly equipped gymnasium, shower
baths, lockers, a cinder path, base ball
and foot ball grounds. OF course, these
things will not come right away. It will
take some money to do this, but the mem
bers are enthusiastic. They intend to get
to work and to stick to it until they ac-
complish an end.
The organization is certainly a praise
worthy one, and will hardly fail to meet
with the hearty approval and support of
every young man in Savannah, and Of
the older men also, for that matter. In
fact the association hopes to get great
deal Of aid from the older men. OF
course, they are not expected to come
out and play foot ball or try to break the
running record for 100 yards, but they
might loosen their purse strings, just q
| little, and give the club a hand.
The young men at the head of the as
ISOLATION are we'll known, and the best
young men Of the city have signlfed
their intention OF becoming members.
Tho association will not be sectional in
any way, and every young man in Sa-
vannah Is invited TO join

tice tonight at SIS o'clock.

time, and then break out in an unexpect-

a vigorous protest against the condition
of affairs on Macy street, and he though.
this should be remedied. Judge Ling
only wanted the company to build the
road on the streets covered by the fran
chise. Mr. Kerckhoff favored granting
the extension asked for.
General Manager Clark Of the cleo
trio road briefly addressed the council,
repeating his assurance that the COM
pany would do as it said 1t would 1t
was the intention at the present time to
build over the streets covered by the
franchise He resented the imputation
that he was not acting in good faith,
nor did he think that he stood before the
council as an adventurer. UP to the last
year or so his check had paid for every
foot of electric road in the city. Since
he had severed his connection with the
Los Angeles Railway company he had
built more than fifty miles of electric
road. and he was the only one who had
applied for franchise on the Mission road
who built anything.
Judge Sherman Page briefly replied
to Mr.. Clark, denying that he had cast
any reflections on Mr.. Clark s integrity,
or that he had any intention Of SO doing.
AS Mr.. Clark had now made positive
statement, he was satisfied.
Councilman Savage reported the re-
suit of his observations at the East
Side meeting Wednesday evening, after
which he moved that the rules be sus-
pended and the ordinance granting the
extension be put on its passage.
Mr.. Clark then stated that If they
We're not detained by storms. they
would have the road constructed as far
as the county hospital within sixty days.
. On this statement, Mr. Stern, repre-
senting the East Side committee, said
that this was satisfactory to them, and
there was no objection.
Councilmen Munson. Kingery, Blar-
chard and others put themselves on rec
ord as favoring the extension, and then
the ordinance granting the extension
asked for was passed by unanimous
vote.
After some minor matters had been at
tended to, the council adjourned.
