DRILL WON BY DOYLE.

Continued From Twelfth Page.
to re-enlist through fear of being held
against his will to a service which is
distasteful to him. In our present en-
listment oath each one of us swears to
support and defend the Constitution
and laws of the United States"
Secretary Root, Judge Speer, Senator
Bacon and other authorities maintain
that the new law imposes no greater
obligations, than those which we all
assumed prior to the passage of said
law.
eff, after the report of the inspection
has been ANNOUNCED and the terms of
the new law are fully explained, any
enlisted man feels unable or unwilling
to continue his military service, will
guarantee that an honorable discharge
will be granted him.
Another argument in favor of the law
is the reduced expense to the enlisted
man. You all know how expensive the
military is and how little we get from
the state. The United States govern
ment is inclined to help us, and win
help us. An effort is being made to
have a bill enacted by Congress, pro-
viding that suitable compensation be
given to enlisted men for attendance at
drill. When this becomes a law, in
stead of sacrificing your business in
order to attend to military duties, you
will be paid for time lost from work,
and when in camp win receive pay
equal to the pay of the corresponding
rank in the regular army.
Lastly, / wish to call your attention
to the increased dignity of your posi-
ton under the new law. Grave and
weighty problems confront us. The
citizens of this mighty nation expect
the organized militia to defend this
government against foreign aggression
and to maintain law and order Is
there no inspiration in the thought that
these important duties are confided to
you, that this great republic depends
upon you and considers your training
a mater of such vital Importance that
the national government has been
charged in the recent law to promote
and foster your efficiency.
las for service against a foreign
power, we are one people. In Texas
and Maine, in Georgia and Oregon we

most every case, and when the Presi-
dent of these United States calls for

WHEN RAIN LETS UP
TYBEE SEASON WILL OPEN.

indications Point to Most Successful
Year Resort Has Ever Had.
The indications are that the Tybee
season will be the most successful in
the history of that famous summer re-
sort. Already, before the formal open
ing of the hotel, the number of reser-
vations exceed that of any previous
year in the history of the island. AS
soon as the rainy spell let's up, and Old
Sol begins to shine with some regular
ity, the season will be on.
Though the season has not formally
begun, and will not until the hotel is
opened for the season, the picnic and
excursion crowds, impatient to return
to their last summers pleasure
grounds, are already frequenting the
place. The Republican Blues have
just had their big picnic and prize drill,
and several other picnics have been
arranged for next week. On Monday
week the Hussars have their annual
prize sabre drill, which will, no doubt,
carry down a large party of friends of
the company.
Levin's Orchestra, which will furnish
music at the Tybee Hotel and on the
hotel pavilion during the summer, ar
rived yesterday, and are now at the
Pulaski, where they will give concerts
every evening, beginning at Z o'clock,
until the opening at Tybee. The or
chestra was engaged, after considering
| the applications of dozens of we'll
known organizations, and the genial
proprietor of the seaside hotel hopes to
| give his patrons the very best music
throughout the season.

An effort to get the state encamp-

the Chamber of Commerce, and he has
high hopes of success as it is admit
ted that this city is by far the most
desirable place for such an encamp-

troops in Georgia the greater number
are stationed in this vicinity.
This effort of the Chamber of Com

atively a small effort on the part Of

RAIN AND RELIGION.
Connected by Savannnhians Because
of Recent Experience.

Connected by Savannnhians Because
of Recent Experience.
Religion and rain will be connected
in the minds of the average Savannah
ian for many months to come, and such
a connection will not seem unnatural
when the relation of the recent wealth
er and the conventions of the Baptists
and of the Episcopalians are consider
ed.
The Southern Baptist Convention
met, it will be remembered, May 4.
Prior to that time the weather had been
pretty nearly ideal that is to say, the
temperature had been normal and there
had been scarcely any rain, trace on
the list day of the month, and a trace
on the 4th, but the opening day of the
convention saw a rainfall of over half
an inch, and heavy downpours con-
tinued on each succeeding day of the
sessions.
The second day of the convention, the
rainfall was two and a half inches, the
day following, half an inch, the next
day near one and a quarter inches, and
the last day a trace. tuesday, the
day after the convention, the sun made
its appearance for the first time in four
days. 1t was hailed with joy by a
drenched people, but this joy was short
lived; it lasted no longer than the day,
for on the morrow another lot of min
listers met and promptly the sun hid it,
self behind clouds and again rain made
it's appearance. quarter of an inch
Wednesday, little less Thursday, and
more yesterday.
Strange as it may seem within an
hour after the Diocesan Convention adj
journed, the sun again made its APP
pearance, and there was no more rain
during the day.
Summing up, ST. inches of rain fell
during the time of the two conventions
while the normal for that time is but
1.06.
Savannah may become the convention
city of the South, but If 1t wants the
enthusiastic support of the citizens in
its efforts to make good to this title
II will have to compile statistics tC
prove conclusively that Baptists DOM
always bring floods and Episcopalians
showers.

are for fair weather, with light varIa-
