The work will be carried out in a
common sense manner. The drill,
marching, ETC., will be given with no
Ill effects. 1t Is our aim to carry out
everything in scientific manner, and
the men will be asked to take charge
of a group, Of men, and drill them.
During the first week there will
be organization and equipment.
Reveille will sound at $3.50 and taps
at $3.50. During the day there will
be individual instruction. The even
ing study hour is between and 8
o'clock. Among the things which will
be taken up the first week will be
physical instruction, school for the
soldier, school of the squad, rifle
sighting, semaphore signalling, and
three practise marches of about three
or four miles without arms.
During the second week the men
will carry a light weight kit for a
longer distance. Bayonet practise
will also begin in the second week,
together with saber practise and rifle
aiming. Physical instruction will be
continued. The work will be increased
from time to time, and in this way
the men will be ready to take up each
branch of work.
1.-THE training Of the men at the
camp will be something along the line
of football training. You remarked
that the dummies for bayonet practise
reminded you of a football squad. Men
who battle on the gridiron must be
fit, and this holds good in the camp"

MUCH Appreciated.

Lawyers Of the city who have
been giving their time, and at their
own expense, making trips to various
towns and settlements of the county
of Escambia, register kick Of dis
satisfaction at the lack Of co-opera-
ton shown in about every town they
have yet visited. No effort is made
to, fit up accommodations for them,
and in one instance one committee
was for four hours in a store. The
day was cold and very disagreeable,
and despite this not an effort was
made to provide a fire for the attor-
pointment and who could not get
turning train was not due until late
in the afternoon.
Lawyers of Pensacola, by mutual
agreement, have volunteered their
services as a patriotic bit to extend
a helping hand to the local draft
boards. Three or four go to each
place by appointment, and bear their
own expense. No charge is made for
their work, and as it is for the pur-
pose Of assisting those to whom the
questionaires are addresses, cne pres
ence Of lawyers is real advantage.
AS stated above, the services of the
lawyers are donated. and this pre-
cludes the necessity of the men sub
ject to draft coming to the city. This
is a real advantage to employers,
and it was expected that the efforts
of the attorneys would be more ap-
preciated than later developments
give ample proof that they are. es-

While the lawyers have been faith

needed but unappreciated aid, they

The st.r-sp.nsrea Banner.

Q! say. can you see. by tho dawn's early
light,
What 30 proudly We hailed at tho
twiliEht's last cleaning
Whose broad stripes and bright stars.
through the clouds of the fight,
Ger the ramparts we watched were
so calamity streaming! @
And the rockets red glare, the bombs
bursting in air.
Gave proof through the night that our
flag was st.ll there; ..
o! say, does that star-spanglcd banner
yet wave
Ger the land OF the free, and the homo
OF the brave:
On that shore dimly seen through the
mists OF the deep.
Where the foes naughty host in
dread silence rcposes.
What is that which the breeze, DER
the towering steep,
AS it ftfully blows, now conceals,
now discloses?
Now it catches the CLEAN OF the morn
ing's first beam.
In full glory reflected now shines on
the stream:
'Tis the star-spnnGlcd banner; 0 long
may II wave .i9.
Ger the land OF the free, and the home
of the brave!
vauntingly swore ~#
That the havoc Of war and the bat
ties confusion ...
A home and country should leave
no more?
Their blood has washed out their
foul footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and
slave
From the terror of fight. or the gloom
of the grave;
And the star-spanEled banner in tri-
umph doth wave
Ger the land OF the free, and the home
OF the brave.
o! thus be it ever when freemen shall
stand
Between their loved homes and the
-.- wars desolation!
Blest with victory and peace. may the
Heav'n-rcscued land
Praise the PoTcr that hath made
and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our
