A committee of about 100 Savannah la

gathered around their tables they did not
want for a thing. Col. Willie Jones, COM
manding officer of the regiment, had his
picture taken in front of Company Is

The Second Louisiana Regiment had $751;
sent Il by the people of New Orleans, the
amount having been raised through sub
scrlptons asked for in the columns of the
Picayune. Prior to Thanksgiving day,
Capt. Favrot, adjutant Of the regiment
and other officers were busy for three
days getting a sort of a corner on the tur-
key market, and securing supplies OF all
kinds for the men.
With this money the Louisiana men Sc
cured 800 pounds of turkey, "a gallons of
oysters, mince meat and some httle claret
wine, enough to give all the men flavor
with their dinner. The Louisianans are
fond of a little wine with dinner, and their
officers were determined that they should
not go without il on Thanksgiving day if
II was to be had.
In addition TO these supplies the Savan-
nah ladies' added numerous delicacies such
as cakes, salads, etc. to the company
tables of the Louisiana men. The ladies
took charge also Of eaca of the comDa ~
tables. The turkeys We're cooked in The

down, but the game yesterday did not
show any glaring errors through miscon-
ception of the signals that were given.
There were no brilliant plays on either
side. No phenomenon showed up among
the players, but all did good hard work.
There did not seem to be a particularly
weak place anywhere in either line, though
the tactics pursued by each team, especial
~ the Iowa, were to keep pounding away
at the line.
The best of order was maintained
throughout the game. There was a detail
of twenty-four men from each regiment in
as a guard, and the Fourth Illinois also
had detachment out. The crowd was very
orderly, and everything passed off smooth
ly. There was a good deal of roofing but
It was all done in a good natured way.
Both regiments were well represented, and
shouts and cheers could always be heard
from the adherents of one side or the other
when a good play was made. The bands
Were along for each regiment, and they
added greatly to the noise. Sometimes airs
were played but more often the good plays
were followed by earspntting choruses of
all sorts of sounds. Yankee Doodle and
Dixie were played by the Iowa and the
Texas bands respectively after good plays
by their teams.
The boys were playing for the bali that
was used in the game. AS it was a tie,
however. the regiments wiz meet again on
the gridiron. When the next battle win
take place is not yet known, but the good,
clean exhibition of foot ball that was given
should secure them a good crowd when the
boys meet again.

Ninth nIinois Men Happy.

The Ninth Illinois Regiment is provided
with protected company mess halls and
kitchens similar to those of the Second
South Carolina. This is, perhaps, the
largest regiment in the corps, having
about 1250 or more enlisted men. Every
company mess hall was, therefore, pretty
well filled when the dinner call was sousd-
ed
The Ninth Illinois men come from the
southern part of their state, a section
which is famous for its observance of
Thanksgiving day. There everybody
hunts up the biggest backwood log for
the fire. and the turkey has been fattened
for weeks before The Illinois men were
pretty well trained therefore, in the art
of appreciating a good thing.
The usual decorations of evergreens and
moss appeared upon every company mess
hall and within each one. In putting up
these decorations the men displayed much
taste. The company letter in moss or
eVergreens was placed upon the front of
each mess han, while over the doors of
many appeared the word welcome" sim
iarly designed. Some OF the mess halls
were wittily named after famous hotels,
such as the Cordova, Deimonicos, and
others. The sentiment displayed by the
soldiers in surrounding themselves with
these decorations is an interesting one. IL
would not seem ordinarily that a soldier
roughing it IN the field would go to the
trouble OF decorating in an artistic man
ner, but it is a characteristic of human
nature that enjoyment is brought by such
! features upon such days. and IL is so with
the soldier, whether he is at home or in
camp.

LOCAL MILITARY QUIET.
Their Usual Thanksgiving CcIebra-
tions Omitted This Year.

ttOhS Omlttfu rms AtuE.
Thanksgiving day has usually been
claimed by the local military as one of
their particular holidays the day being
utilized for practice at the target range
and jollifcauon at Tybee or elsewhere.
There was nothing of this kind yesterday.
1t may have been that in the presence of
so much of the real thing the militia pre-
ferred not to be in evidence, abandoning
the field entirely to their friends of the
Seventh Army Corps In fact, there was
so much interest in the entertainment by
the ladies of the soldiers of the Seventh
Corps that there was little room for any
thing else.
Nothing has been done as yet in the di
rection of recognizing the local military
commands on account Of the mastering out
of many of the former officers and mem
bers from the service of the government
in which they have been engaged for the
last seven months. The Chatham Artil-
lery retains its old organization with Capt.
Walker Leuts. Cam, Carson and Dreese.
The three lieutenants rendered their res
lgnations as such to Capt. Walker when
the battery was organized for the war
but the designations were never acted
upon, and they still retain their positions.
The lieutenants of the battery during the
term of service with the government
Lieuts George P Armstrong, II. NJ
Conner, Jr., and Armin b. Palmer, viii
become private members of the organiza-
ton or private citizens as they choose
There Will probably be some changes in
the officers of the other commands, pro-
vsional officers having been appointed in
some of the commands to fill the places of
the absentees. Some of the old officers
who accompanied their commands into the
service of the government do not care to
resume their former positions, and the
provisional officers may be called upon to
continue in their present rank. The local
military spirit has been very quieseent
during the absence of their war members,
and practically nothing has been done.
According to rule the drill season should
begin next month. The monthly meetings
next month will have these questions to
consider, and will probably decide the
status to be taken by the local commands.

NcI,rn.I.nns, Glorious Day.

No prettler or more interesting sight
was to be found in any of the regimental
camps than was seen in that of the Third
Nebraska Twelve tables fifty feet long
were set up in systematic order in front
of each company mess tent and around
them were placed profuse decorations OF
pines, evorgreens and moss gathered by
the men from the surrounding wood.
In addition to the cakes and Thanksgiv-
ing delicacies provided by the Savannah
ladies, about 100 of whom spent the aft
ernoon looking after the Nebraska sol
diers, $500 sent by the people of Nebraska
through the Omaha World-Herald, had
been turned over to them and invested
in a bountiful supply of turkeys fruits,
cranberries and other seasonable luxu-
ries.
1.-The roll was called. and not a man
found missing" is the way Capt. schwarz
put it. Such, indeed, seemed to have
been the case. There were from sixty to
eighty men at every table, and they were
storing away eatables as rapidly as they
knew how 10 do 1t.
Pictures were taken of all the company
tables, and many a one will go to some
home in Nebraska as a bit of evidence
that the boys Jared wei, Every company
had the United States colors set up in the
middle of the table, some Of them hand
some silk flags presented them before their
departure from home. over one table
that of Company G, was placed the motto
of Nebraska: Equality Before the Law"
II don't see how you can say enough
in praise of this Southern hospitality" re-
marked Maj ]. Fl. McClay, as the boys
were gathered around their tables. 1T is
really not a dinner, but a banquet, with
all the concomittants. 1t is an event to be
remembered for years to come.

Royalty at Their Tables.
Every regiment in the First Division
of the corps had a merry Thanksgiving.
and there was not a man in the division
who did not have more than he could
eat and some 10 spare.
The officers were all looking out for their
men, and rendering every assistance to
the many ladies who went out to see that
the soldier boys got a good, square
Thanksgiving meal. In addition to get
ting a dinner of de,icacies each regiment
makes great saving on its regular ra-
tons, which are allowed by the govern
ment. This saving in some cases will
amount TO something like $500 a regiment.
an amount which will go into the regi-
mental fund for future uses.
There were several thousand visitors at
the camp of the First Division during the
day, and especially Were the camps crowd
ed in the afternoon. 1t was an interestina
sight to see the soldiers at their feasfs
and those who witnessed il will remember
1t a long time.

vannah.
The, Third Georgia, which is now in Sa-
vannah, win also be taken to Nuevitas, but
as the arrangements for transporting the
regiment have not yet been completed it is
likely that the Third will have at least
two weeks here.
All of these troops are a part of Gen.
Carpenters command, and will be divided
between Nuevitas and Puerto Principe. the
former being the port and the latter the
capital of the province of Puerto Principe.

Third Georgia VIII Probably Change

It now seems definite that the Third
Georgia Regiment will not leave Savannah
for some days to come
Gen. Fitzhugh Lee received a telegram
yesterday stating that the Third Georgia
would be detained here for some days, and
asking him to see that the proper arrange
ments We're made for the regiment.
The first thing to do if the regiment is
to remain is to secure a new camping
ground, as its present site at the Georgia
Car and Manufacturing Company's works
is not for many reasons, desirable as a
permanent camp. Some investigation was
made yesterday with view TO securing a
new camp site for the regiment. and it will
probably be placed on Dale avenue some
distance to the southwest of the camp of
the First Texas Regiment and nearer to
the Waters road. The matter will be de-
cided upon to-day, and the chances are
that the Third Georgia's camp will be NOV

Gen. Lee also received telegram, asking
him to make suitable arrangements for the

cipally to Havana. Gen. Lee will look into
the matter of providing temporary camp
ing grounds when they are needed by the

when the movement of this corps will be-
gin, but 1t will probably be within a very
