GAMBLER NOW THE COLONEL
WAR DEPARTMENT OVERLOOKs
HIS PHYSICAL DISABILITIES.

Mai. Mills Musters Him Into the Ser
INinsOn Insisted on His Acceptance
Only on Condition That His APP
pointment Would Not BE an Injus-
tice to the Men Under Him.
Atlanta, Ga, June 3O.-Col. John S.
Gambler was mustered into the United
States service this afternoon and is now
regularly in command of the Third Geor-
gia Regiment.
It was feared by some that Col. Cand-
Ter would be rejected by the war depart
ment on account of physical disability,
but after duly considering the report of
Maj. Mills, the mastering officer, togeth-
er with the report of the surgeon who ex-
amlned Col Gambler the department de-
cided that his physical short-coming would
not debar him.
Accordingly Maj Mills was wired by
Adjt. Gen. Corbin to-day to accept Col.
Gambler, and shortly after the receipt of
this telegram the form of mastering was
gone through with at the capitol.
In referring to the matter Gov. Atkin-
son said that since the war department
had SO said, he felt sure Col. Gamblers
crippled feet would not incapitate him
from doing every service that might fall
TO his lot as the leader of his regiment
While he insisted upon the acceptance
of Col Gambler, after he was rejected by
the mastering officer, he did so only upon
condition that the department was salts
fed that his appointment would not be an
injustice to the men under him.
Gov. Atkinson, Col Gambler. Acting
Adjutant General Erwin, and Maj. Mills
the mastering officer, held a conference
this afternoon discussing the details Of
raising the new regiment.
The last of the commissioned officers of
the regiment was announced this after
noon, being Second Lieutenant j. f. Clark
of Elberton, who serves with the COM
pany of Capt. W. W. Davies of Atlanta.
Recruiting for three companies of the
new regiment is going on here, but with
only ordinary success. From the outlook
now it will be two or three weeks before
the ranks are full.
