SOUGHT COOL PLACES.
Crowds Visited Tybee, ThunderbOIt
and Isle of Hope.

Because of their varied and many
attractions and because of the heat in
the city the resorts yesterday were Wis
tied by crowds of people. Tybee caught
the largest crowd because of the surf
bathing and because also of the fact
that Hotel Tybee began its summer
season and offered special attractions.
The crowd started on the early af-
ternoon train and that and each train
left afterward was quite filled. On the
island the afternoon was spent in an
enjoyment of the breeze and the music,
furnished by Tarrant's Orchestra, and
in bathing. a hundred or more enjoy
ing the latter during the afternoon.
The attendance was not confined to
Hotel Tybee, however, for the South
End Pavilion also. had made special
arrangements to attract the visitors
and succeeded in a most satisfactory
manner. Excellent suppers were serv-
ed both there and at Hotel Tybee and
the restaurants were well patroniZed
Many people also visited Thunder
bolt and spent a pleasant time wan
dering about the grounds of the Ca
sino or sitting on the piazza. The mu-
sic was not so good as usual, caused
by a misunderstanding between Mr..
the First Regiment Band, and some
ten of his men. These were to play
with the band until June /, when ar
rangements had been made to release
them, but yesterday they were unex-
pectedly called on to go to Tybee and
did so, reducing the ranks of the Ca
sino band by almost one-half.
Manager Sternad was so little salts
fed at his inability to furnish the full
band that he gave the services of the
remainder of the men without cost,
and wishes the public to understand
that a full band will be had by Sun
day.
Manager L. w. Nelson of the Casino
is very well satisfied with the business
| done during the past week and yester-
| day. and announces that, beginning
tonight, he will have a new vaude-
vile show that will attract an even
greater attendance than did the one
whose contract has just expired.
At Isle of Hope the attendance also
was good, quite as large as had been
expected. Barbee's pavilion was filled
| during the afternoon and his restau-
rant as usual literally patronized.
| The eight-foot alligator, which was
captured more than a week ago and
which is to be slaughtered to-day. was
a source of much interest.

GALATIANS HAD GUESTS.
Columbus Guards Paid Them a Visit
En- Route Home.

The Columbus Guards, Company c,
Fourth Infantry, en- route from Char
lesion home. stopped over in Savan-
nah yesterday afternoon as the guests
of the Chatham Artillery. The COM
pany, about thirty-fve strong, were in
charge of Capt. P. Preer, First Lieu

FOR THE FINAL RALLIES.
Rival Political Factions Are Gather
ing Their Forces.

The energies of the local political
factions are now being concentrated on
their final rallies, both of which are
to be held at the theater, that of
the Union Club tomorrow night and
that of the Citizens Club on the night
following. Desperate efforts are being
made to render these occasions polit-
ically memorable.
For the Union Club rally there will
be torchlight professions from four
or five points in the city, the several
district organizations gathering to
their halls to display in this manner
their enthusiasm and their pedestrian
abilities. At the theater, where the
professions will focus, there will be
addresses by the best spell-binding tall
ent the club can offer.
A similar display will be furnished
on Wednesday night by the cohorts
of the Citizens Club and, of course,
the effort will be to make this more
rival celebration.
The indications point already to a
very large number of scratched and
amended tickets. Men who in the past
have been pronounced and even Vio-
lent partisans of one faction or the
other have already declared their in
tention of making up a ticket to suit
their own fancy and voting for those
candidates, irrespective of faction, they
consider the best men.
I'm going to vote the first scratched
ticket of my life," is a remark that is
very often beings heard on the streets.

DRILL BEGINS AT g.
RegimentaI Contest Tonight at
Guards Hall.

RegimentaI Contest Tonight at
Guards Hall.
The regimental drill at the Guards
Hall tonight will commence promptly
at o'clock. Ten minutes before that
hour the preliminary drill will COM
mence. This will be given in order
that the men may become accustomed
to the commands and their executions
and may overcome the fright some may
feel in appearing before so large
crowd of spectators as will be pres
ent.
The plan for the drill is we'll known.
The friends of the members of the COM
pany have all been told how four pick
ed men from each of the six companies
of the First Infantry-seven. if the
Brunswick Riflemen send a team to-
day, will appear in line for a test or
their ability to execute the manual of
arms. Commands will be given by
Capt Walter E. Coney and Capt. C.
H. Richardson, staff officers of the
regiment, and Capt. Cruikshank, Lieut..
Gilmer and Lieut.. Bunker from Fort
Screven will watch for errors, throw
ing the men out as they make them.
Upon the conclusion of the drill Col.
A. r. Lawton will present the prizes.
There will be the handsome regimental
medal for the man standing last, and
that man will be accredited the best
drilled in the regiment. In addition,
there will be S. for the man who may
be the last standing of each company's
team.
The sale of tickets for the drill has
progressed finely. There has been wide
interest aroused, and there is excellent
prospect for a large attendance. Dan
cling will follow the drill.

carriers at once, which assures prompt
employment to those who pass the ex-
animation. and that several of them are
assured of places in the local postoffice
as its force is to be increased shortly.
Another position for which applicants
are wanted is that of Photographic as
sistant, the successful applicant will
be given a place at the Smithsonian
Institution. This examination will be
held June II, and on the same date

and Identification clerk in the United
States penitentiary service. From the
eligibles resulting from this examina-
ton it is expected that certification

and Identification clerk in the United
States penitentiary service at Atlanta.

Monster Snurtan at Isle of Hope to

Monster Snursan AT Isle OF nope 10
Have Increase of Days.
The giant saurian that Mr.. A. M.
Barbee has had on exhibition at his
place at Isle of Hope will not be exc
cuted to-day, though this date had
been selected for his final exit from
this vale of tears. The present inabil-
ity of the tanners to care for his hide
is responsible for this increase of days.
The hide is to be manufactured into
a number of pairs of shoes and the
tanners say they are not just now in
a position TO care for it. They want
a delay and Mr.. Barbee has determin-
ed to crafty it.
The fact that the alligator was on
exhibition yesterday accounts in part,
probably. for the hundreds of persons
who visited Isle of Hope during the
day. His impending death was the
subject of much comment. He will
live now for ten days or two weeks
longer.

OIL ON SHIPS AND ENGINES.
May Be Used, MIR. Egan Says, it
Found Economical.

President John NJ. Egan of the Cen
trail Railway and Ocean Steamship
Companies was asked yesterday about
report that the locomotives of the
railway and the vessels of the steam
ship company are to be equipped as oil
burners, in order that oil may be used
as fuel instead of coal.
I'VE are making no tests or expert
ments," said Mr.. Egan, but we are
watching the tests and experiments
made by others. If their experience
demonstrates the advisability of the
use of oil instead of coal, suppose
we will adopt oil as a fuel. We are
always on the watch for means that
will enable a more economic operation
of the railway and the steamship line.
If oil as fuel is such a means, why
suppose we will have it in time"
