sidney Lanier's Poems.

A New Edition of Sidney Lanier Poems '7ymns Of the Marshes" will be published October IF. and Is beau- tifuIly illustrated by reproductions from photographs of scenes taken es- pecialiy for the work on the Marshes Of Glynn. The photographer spent many days in and around the marshes photographing them at every hour of fhe day and in every phase. Some or hIs most successful work was done In the neiRhborhood of Jekyl Island. Ills views bring vividly before us the in- spiration of the poems. The demand for sidney Lanier's poetry is increas- ing and his position as one or the foremost of our American poets IS now very secure. The London Spectator said. in speaking of his poetry. La nier died so early that he did not show ms more than the bud of his genius, put if he had lived ten years longer nc would. we believe. have ranked high among English poets and proDaoly above every American poet or the past

Its Growth.

The rapid growth of the National Guard is not dreamed of by those who have paid no attention to it. and the figures given by the Adjutant General of the army will cause great surprise to all such persons.

It Is further recommended that an annual appropriation be made to provide for calling yearly the militia Coast Artillery reserves and the militia Coast Artillery supports to the col- ors in such Joint Army exercises as have been conducted this year. It is estimated that an appropriation of $300,000 will be reuuired for this purpose.

The reorganization of the Alabama National Guard soon to be made in general order, Is to conform to the re- quirements of the Dick law. under which the militia in the various States have been operating since 1905. Tne fuIl scope and extent of the change has before been set out in this depart ment and really thereis no very ma terial change to be made.
 The general stan Is to be divided up into departments, but the number IS to be increased rather than diminished. The brigade staff is to be cut down, the Inspector of Rifle Practice. ord nance Officer to be abolished and only two aide-de-camps are allowed With rank of lieutenant The regimsntai and battalion stan are also to be cut down and the battalion formations in the regiment are to have an adjutant and a quartermaster and commissary.
 There can be only three batteries in a battalion of artillery and as Ala bama now has four batteries 1t Will be necessary to dispose of one or these batteries, which will probably be made an independent organization, unat- tached. and under the command of the Adjutant General. The order VIII De issued soon, in time to get the organi- xation in good running order before
 
 when the organization limit expires. General Graves has given the matter much thought and attention and when issued the order will have the approval of the War Department.
 Increase in Approprintionsy
 A movement is now on foot among the Adjutant Generals of the various states to have the appropriation Tor the support of the National Guard in creased by the next Congress to $5,- ooo, ,ooo annually. The National Guard is growing very rapidly and It's close relation to the regular establishment is being fully appreciated by the an- thorities, it's value as a reserve to the regular army is not otsunder-rated and to fuIlv eoulp and maintain it and put it on a footing that will make 1t ready for any emergency is the purpose m view. The National Guard, as to drill and discipline, is now almost equal Tn efficiency to any troops in the regular service and with full arms and equip inent, would be ready on moments notice for active service. and it's value cannot be properly estimated in such a contingency. It is remembered now willingly and gladly the appropriation was doubled by the last Congress and that being the entering wedge, Con- wress will be ready to do what IS ask ed and give sufficient money to have the National Guard Nof the various States so thoroughly equipped in ord- nance and quartermaster's stores, that there would be no delay in occasion Of active service and they could be got ten into the field and ready for service just as rapidly as could the regulars, and that is what Is intended, and the value of such a situation is fully ap- preciated.

age was 21.o2, and in 1903 1t was 2s.45. These figures show a steady increase in the relative numbers of members of the organized militia present at the inspection.
 Of the annual appropriation of s2.- 100000 for the militia. the Secretary of War set aside s1.500,000 for arms, equipments and camp purposes, and S500,000 for the promotion of rifle prac- tfce, the latter item including the ac- auirement. construction. equipment and maintenance of shooting galleries and target ranges. a We
 Several of the adjutants general claim that the distribution would be more equitable if 1t were made on the basis of the number of men actually enrolled. The effort to obtain the prompt transmission of accurate re- turns was no more successful than in previous years, and they were no more accurate or complete. The correction and completion of these returns re- uuired much correspondence with the State authorities. 7
 The reports of the annual inspections were much more satisfactory than those of former inspections, showing that of the 2,17s organizations in- ,spected, 1,437 were fully armed, uni- formed and equipped for field service at any season of the year; that twenty five were fully armed uniformed and equipped for service during summer only; that 221 were deficient in articles of clothing. camp equipage, kitchen utensils, or ordnance and ordnance stores. and that 4s6 were not suffi- cinetly armed, uniformed and equipped for field service. The same conditions exist with regard to overcoats that have been obtained during the past four years, it being considered by the States to be a waste of money to obtain without place in which to store them ner.
 As in previous. years, there are many recommendations for @ change in the time set for inspections. The time fav- ored generally for these inspections seems to be the encamprnent period, which extends from the first of June, in the Northern and Eastern States, to the end of November, in the Southern and Southwestern States.
 These inspections, however, are made to ascertain whether the various States are entitled to use of their apportion- ment for pay, subsistence and trans- portaticn; and as such information must be available at the beginning of the fiscal year, 1t is irnpracticable to defer the inspections until after that period.

Teach me to know and observe the
rules of the game.
Give me to mind my W business

Help me not to cry for the moon

Grant me neither to pro1er nor 10

sharply between sentiment and senti-

despising the other.
When it is appointed for me to sur
fer, let me so far as may humanity
be possible, take example from the
deer, well-bred beasts, and go away
quietly, to bear my ~suferings by my
self.
Give me to be always a good COM

Help me to win; if win l may;

If I may not win, make me a good
