The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-09-05

To any one, who has a spark of patrio-
tism, or local pride, it must be pleasure
TO read of the success Of ''our boys" at
Sea Girt. The contests ended yesterday
and as the smoke of battle clears away
and the results are summarized, the press
IS ringing the praises Of the Savannah
boys. From the Alleghanes to the Ser-
ras, from the pine forests of Maine to the
pine apple fields of Florida, we hear moth
fng but a generous congratulation upon
their splendid victories.
Now work is over and the victors are
leaving Sea Girt to enjoy their well earn
ed holiday.
The charming weather we are now en-
soying seems as if made to order to well
come home the victorious teams from
Sea Grit 1t has been intimated that they
would be received with an ovation
Surely nothing could be more in order
than to give a ''rousing welcome" to the
conquering heroes! The Soldier of Mara
thon and the Hilton Trophy will again
return to the Forest City, and 1t seems
as if they would finally locate here for
all time.
Can any city be mons beautiful than
Savannah is now? The recent heavy
showers have turned the grass to emer-
aid green and frightened every leaf and
shrub and the return of the absentees
daily infuses new life and spirit into the
business marts and social circles.
