soLDIER-sArLoRs OFF FoH CAMP
Will Leave This Morning ~ Strong
For St ShnOn's.


The two Savannah divisions Of the naval
militia will leave at O'Clock by the Flor
ida Central and Peninsular this morn
ing for camp at st. simons. The second
| division will be under command Of Lieut..
II. S. Colding and the third division of
Lieut.. c. Z. Broughton.
There will be seventy-two men all told,
as well as can be judged before the actual
departure of the militia. Members Of both
divisions were at the armory last night
engaged in getting everything in prepa-
ration for the trip. All the baggage was
packed and the extra clothes put into
the new clothes bags recently received. The
divisions will assemble at the armory this
morning at 1 o'clock, standard time, one
hour before the train leaves, TO get every
thing into final order. The baggage viii
then be loaded upon wagons and driven
to the depot.
The militia will march to the train in
military order. Two cooks and an assist
ant Will be taken along on the trip, the
camp orders from state headquarters al
lowing each company of troops in camp
cook. The tents to be used at the mi
ntias camp at St. Simons have
not yet arrived. A telegram received
from Meldrim last night disclosed the fact
that they were laying upon the platform
at the station, and could not be shipped
as the agent had no Instructions as to
their destination. They will probably be
ordered shipped to st. Simon's to-day.
1t Is more than likely that the soldier
sailors Will sleep in the pavilion near the
camp grounds tonight. This emergency
was not wholly unexpected, and the con-
venient location of the pavilion will relieve
the men Of any discomfort on the score
Of spending the night Cots will not be
