BUSY TIMES ‘I

Col. Rav is Gradually Getting
Together His Regiment
of Immimes.)
MUCH GOOD MATERIAL
Is There and Ready to be Handled
Warren Will Take Tay
lor’s Place,
"Left Left
f—(Left
A good home I —Left.”
Th< ioldi<TH refrain from an echo every
where around Camp Prise under which
name C entral city park formerly the home
of thi Agricultural Society of Georgia has
been (hanged into the camp and drill
ground of the Third regiment of the
United Stall: volunteers more commonly
and "unreasonably known as Immunes.”
From •■reveille” until “lights out” the
drill .’-quads composing the different com- I
panics of the regiment—companies of
gr ater or of lesser strength, according to I
the energy 'lisplayid by the good luck that |
has attended the efforts qf the recruiting
officers who are to receive commissions
conditioned on the number of men they
can induce to "join the army”—are re
ceiving the instructions in the first posi
tion of a soldier and are learning how to
walk.
Tiie buildings that had been given over
to bats and the ghosts of great under
takings ire peopled with the material out i
of which soldiers are made.
Th< gnat halls that have teemed with
the most luscious pn duet of the (Empire
State of the South are the barracks for |
the rawest regiment of recruits that has I
ever been gathered together in one .place I
to be hammered into a part of the great I
machinery of war.
Some eight hundred men have now.been
recruited for the regiment of imunes un
der command of f’olonel P. H. Ray. tAn
old soldier who has seen service from the
depot to the field, and who has seen some
a unpromising recruits as ever came up
drilled into as fine soldiers as the world
wants or a Spaniard cares to meet, strolled
through (’amp Price this morning and
made i mental note of the troubles that
ate ih< id of the gallant colonel of the
Third, then made a note of the colonel
binr.df and says that while the colonel
has an almost, herculean task ahead of him
he is about as well able to perform it as
any soldier we ever saw.
As they see these recruits, undrilled, un
equipped, unshJv. n and unkempt, civilians
are naturally prone to smile a little and
while the smile in no way reflects pji th?
pn'riotism of the individual who lias
thrown in his lot with the army when his
country has called for volunteers, the mind
( innot help but make odious comparison
between these men and the soldier as they
see him in the piping times of peace or |
when he marches out a volunteer from i
•the state militia with his buttons polished.
But the fact of the matter is that Colonel
Ray and his captains have managed to
gather from all the walks of life, from the
alley* and from the fields about as good a
regiment of recruits as has ever been
dumped into n formation and. told to
march.
To the civilian the task would be im
possible. To the young soldier It is dis
couraging. hut if there is one thing that
an old soldier likes better than another it
is to get hold of a bunch of real “Johnnie
Raws” and beginning from the ground up
beat them into Soldiers.
It is safe to venture the prediction that
out of the present mob that the colonel is
forming at Camp P.rice he will make one
of the best and most useful worlX’.g regi
ments in the service.
The tents are gradually being erected-
These will be put Into use because while
the buildings afford amide accommodation
for the men and for double that number
it is necessary to accustom the men to the
Jtents and bow to handle them.
They give the park a pretty appearance j
and when they are all up and the whole |
regiment lias been gathered together and i
work has commen"ed in earnest it will be i
one of the show places of the city.
.At present of course the recruits are not !
getting even a taste of what is to come. I
They have no idea of soldier life and ite !
sorrows and its joys are ail ahead of them.
Rut they think they are half-way ‘
through already and if they only had their
•uniforms on they would be one of rhe
most amusing bodies of soldiers immagin
able. To the old soldier there are few
things more genuinely amusing than a
body of recruits without that little leaven
ing of the old soldier that leavens the
whole lump.
Rut there is no rude awakening in store |
for these mon. They are Just now under- i
going the toughest part of their* whole sol- '
dier lives though they will do a lot more I
kicking by and by. for the older the soldier '
the more he becomes perfect in the art of .
kicking. There is only one difference be- I
tween the kicking of the recruit and that j
of the old soldier. The old soldier learns I
to do what he is told first and kicks after- ■
wards while the recruit kicks and suffers i
for it.
Very few of the men have been mus- I
tered In regularly as yet but this work is
being carried out as rapidly as possible. I
The Hawkinsville company will be com
manded by Mr. C. R. Warren of that place
who will succeed Captain Tom Taylor,
who yesterday resigned in favor of Cap- ‘
tain Warren. Captain Taylor has been i
very hard at work for some time and at
the last moment he found that he was !
physically unable to perform the work re- I
quired of him.

in that state. He is a native of Alabama'
having firgt seen the light in Chambers
county, and was reared in Randolph coun
ty. When very young he left college at
Bowdon, Ga., and entered the Confederate
service, joining the Third Alabama regi
ment at 'Montgomery, Ala., and went to
Virginia, and in the course of time his
regiment attached to the renowned Arch
er s brigade, Stonewall Jackson’s command
army of Northern Virginia. Soon after
entering the service he was made a lieu
tenant and gradually rose to the rank of
major. He commanded his regiment in
mst of the great battles of the war the
last being the battle of Gettysburg at the
right of Pickett’s division in that greatest
of charges. Colonel Reaves is greatly
pleased with the progress made by Colonel
Ray in recruiting and organizing his regi
ment and thinks it will be equal to any in
the service when fully drilled and sea
soned.

He Says that the Fruit Grow
ers Were Making Their
Own Arrangements,
MEETING ON THURSDAY.
That Exclusive Contract May Have
Cost the Growers Fifty Thou
sand Dollars.
A meeting of the fruit growers of the
state has been called for Thursday morn
ing at the Brown House.
The call is issued by Hon. Dudley M.
Hughes, president of the Georgia Fruit
Growers Union and the growers.will mdet
for the purpose of discussing the question
of refrigerator rates and taking some ac
tion on the report of the committee ap
pointed to investigate the matter.
The fight between the Fruit
Union and rhe 'Armour refrigerating car
people is going to be bn in earnest unless
the Central railroad sees fit to cancel the
contract made some time ago in which the
road granted the sole right for refrigerator
cars to the Armour people.
The meeting on Thursday will be inter
esting. Mr. Eagan, the active head of the
Central takes the position that if the Cen
tral had not guarded the interests of the
growers by making the contract serious
consequences would have followed in tlse
way of loss to the grower.
Replying to this Mr. John D. Cunning
ham, president of the National Associa
tion says:
“It may be of interest to Mr. Egan to
know that had the fruit growers been al
lowed to make their owi refrigerating ar
rangements, as has been the case in all
former years under other administrations
of the Central, the growers would un
doubtedly have enjoyed for the first time
an absolutely free car refrigerating ser
vice.
“Just as soon-as the fruit crop was con
sidered absolutely safe, we took steps to
wards securing this muoh-ta-<be desired
arrangement. The Southern railway hav
ing at last taken the position that it was
a railroad’s duty to furnish its patrons
with the equipment necessary to properly
handle any class of freight it accepted,
built this year 200 new fruit refrigerator
cars for the free use of the growers on its
line, excepting actuaP cost of ice, and
knowing that we had never had any trou
ble in securing first-class free refrigerator
equipment to western points or in getting
the railroads to have them properly iced
at. actual cost, we set about securing a
sufficient number of first-class fruit re
frigerators to handle the present crop on
basis of free car service to the growers.
“At the time we heard that the Central
railroad had made an exclusive contract
with a private car line and proposed to
force the routing on our shipments, some
thing more than a month ago. We had,
including the 200 new ears of the Southern,
900 first-class cars practically pledged to
handle this crop, and would easily have
secured the additional 100 or 200 had not
the Central taken this arbitrary position
as to refrigeration and routing, all at no
cost to the growers for refrigeration ex-
LTpl itCLUili IXJSL Ml IClJlg,
“Placing this icing charge at a maximum
of SSO per car, the growers of Georgia
would have saved from the published rates
of the company now having the exclusive
contract the sum of S3O par car to New
York and Chicago points and $35 per car
to more distant points, or a total net
saving of from $60,000 to s7o,oofi pn the
present crop, estimating it at 2,000 cars,
Should the above statement be contra
dicted, I am prepared to prove it to the
satisfaction of ( any interested party.”

GONE TOGETHER.
Klaw and Edanger and Greenwall Will Book
Together.
The Klaw & Erlanger and Greenwall
theatrical syndicates have been consolida
ted and in future there will be but one big
theatrical syndicate.
The report that the two companies had
been combined was first published about
ten days ago and although it was in a
manner denied by Mr. Greenwall at the
time, confirmatory news has been received
to the effect that the combination has un
doubedly been consummated.
The New York Dramatic News of last
week tells of the forming of the combina
tion and gives some details of the agree
ment. By the- terms of the combine the
two theatrical combinations will in future
be controlled 'by the big concern of Klaw
i Erlanger and Al Hayman are at the
head. The bookings will be controlled by
the big syndicate and the antagonism
which has heretofore existed against the
syndicate by Mr. Greenwall’s company in
the South and southwest will no longer ex
ist.
This combination means much to the
South and it is claimed that this section
will be benefited by the combination.
