PRAISED COLORED TROOPS. COL. OBEAR AMD OTHERS THOUGHT THEY SHOWED CP WELL. Twentieth Annual Parade of the Lo ral Battalion Took Place Venter day MornlnK-It Wan Purtiei|uteil in by the Fulton Guard** of Atlanta and the Lincoln Guards of Alaeon. < 01. J. H. Deveaux Wan in Com mand The O rifan Isa t ions That Participated—A Number of the Men Were Unable to Withstand the Ex oennive Heat. The twentieth annual parade of the First Battalion of Infantry, Georgia State Troops, colored, was held yesterday morn ing, thousands of the colored population and a great many white people watching the display from the sidewalks as the sol diers marched through the principal streets and commenting favorably upon the excellent appearance they presented. That the colored troops could make such a creditable display and exhibit such knowledge of the drill regulations was a revelation to many of the white people who observed them, and many compli ments resulted. The parade started from the corner of East Broad and Liberty streets, with Col. J. H. Deveaux. commanding the battlion, at its head. Accompanying the colonel tvcre the members of his staff, Adjutant Sol. C. Johnson, Lieut. J. H. Bugg, In spector of Rifle Practice, and Chaplain- J J. Durham. A brass band furnished the music for the march, which proved long and exceedingly hot and tiresome. So hot was it, in fact, that there were three outright prostrations, the soldiers falling in the ranks and having to be tak en to the sidewalk, where they were cared for until the arrival of the police ambu lance. The men Vvere taken to tjjeir homes and las! accounts received from them in dicated that they were resting easily' and that there would probably be no fatal re sults. That they were knocked out by' the heat, though, there could be no doubt, for all three w'ere clearly' insensible and phy sicians had to bo secured in order to re store them to consciousness and insure re covery. The three ambulance cases were- by' no means the only ones, though no others were so serious. There were several who had to drop out of ranks along the line of march, and, w'hen the parade terminated at the Park Extension, there were a num ber who decided they could not stand in ranks for the inspection to which the companies were to be subjected by Col. W. G. Obear. They had to leave and lie down in the shade. The weather was sweltering, even in the shade, and it was easily understood that the soldiers were having a hard time marching in the sun. The Fulton Guard:, of Atlanta and the Lincoln Guards of Macon w’ere the visit ing companies. They are the only cbl ored military commands in the state out side of Savannah. The local companies that participated in the parade were the Chatham Light Infantry, the Lincolns, the Savannah Light Infantry and the Col quitt Blues. Bringing up the rear were the Georgia Artillery, with two cannon, the battery being under command of Capt. J. C. Simmons. The troops marched to Bryan street, and then proceeded out Bull and Dray ton to the Park Extension, where the in spection was to take place. Col. Obear came down from Atlanta for the special purpose of making it. His report will be favorable to the colored troops, as Ik 1 expressed himself to a representative of the Morning News as having been well pleased with the showing made. The vis iting companies, he thought, deserved par ticular praise for the interest and enthus iasm that had prompted them to pay their own railroad fare from Atlanta and Ma con to participate in the parade. Upon the conclusion of the inspection, the companies took electric cars for Lin coln Park, west of the city', where a pic nic and dancing were enjoyed. ACTING MAYOR DIXON. Will Amnme Charge of the City’s Affair* To-day. Alderman James M. Dixon will take the heim of the city government to-day, Al derman Tie-deman, who has been acting mayor since the departure of Mayor My ers, having deported yesterday with his family for Baltimore. Alderman Dixon will be the youngest man who has sat at the helm of the city government for some years, this task having fallen heretofore to some of the elderly and sedate members of the board. Alderman Mills having frequently' dis charged this duty during former adminis trations. As vice chairman of Council this duty would have fallen to Alderman Wells, but his absence from the city for the summer puts him out of the question. Foreseeing this contingency, Council, about o month ago. adopted a resolution providing that in case of the absence.of the Mayor, Chairman and Vice Chair man of Council from the city Aider man Dixon should preside as acting mayor. This was evidently intended as a compliment to one of the most active and most efficient members of the board. The supervision of the city’s affairs could hardly have been intrust ed to one more fully acquainted with them. As chairman of the Street and Lane Committee, to the duties of which he has given a great deal of time, Alderman Dixon is thoroughly fa miliar with the details of all the public works departments. He is also a mem ber of both Water and Fire Committees and is thoroughly in touch with both of these departments. In fact, it is to be d-oubted if nny’ member of the board Is better poeted on the affairs of the city generally or has a better insight into their workings. Whether this will prove an instance of “coming events casting their shadows be fore” remains to be seen. Alderman Pix cn is understood to have an eye uj>on the Mayor’s chair and this foretaste of official honor and prerogative may have fhe ef fect of fully determining his mind In that direction. However, as his tenure of of fice will be brief, the experience may not he sufficient to prove decisive. Mayor Myers is expected to return about Aug. 25. SEVEN TEAMS WILL ENTER. The Fourth Regiment Han Thnt Many Companies to-Contest. Seven company bams from the Fourth Regiment will he entered In the carbine and rifle competition for the s'ate troops that Is to he held here Sept. 3 and 4. MaJ. R. L. Wylly of the Fourth, telephoned this Inf >i motion to Col. George T. Cann, Inspector general of rifle practice, under whose direction the contests will take Place. MaJ. Wylly also soil that there would be a regimental i* am front# the Fourth. The companies expecting to enter rontes s have ns lat* as three days be fore the shoot to comm* nee to make their entries*. It Is apparent from this th it many more than the s ven mentioned by Mnj. Wylly will ant r. The local compun bw will probably wait some days before they formally en*er tlelr teams for the contests.

LIVER CURE WILL MEET AT ASIIVILLE. General I’nnsoiiKer Agents Will Dls rnn Winter Tourist Rates. General Passenger Agent J. C. Haile of the Central Railroad left last night for Asheville, where the August meeting of the Conference Committee of the Southeastern Passenger Association will be held to-morrow. It is very probable that matters relative to the rates for winter tourists will come up before the general passenger agents for considera tion. Other than these rates, nothing more than routine business is scheduled to come up. Passenger Traffic Manager B. W. Wrenn of the Plant System will attend the meeting and the Southern will be represen ted by General Passenger Agent W. A. Turk. The Seaboard Air Line is not a member of the Association, but it is al ways invited to send a representative to the meetings of the Conference Commit tee. Mr. G. B Tyler, fre ght agent of the Central, et Montgomery, and Mrs. Tyler, were araeng the visitors to the city yes terday. The Plant System will offer on Aug. 22 special rates to Tennessee resorts. Tick ets sold on that date will be good until Sept. 3. CHATHAMS W ON IN A WALK. Defeated Team From Tliomnsville ly n Score of it to O. The Chathams and Thomasvilles, two colored baseball teams, playell an inter esting game ai the Bolton Street Park yesterday afternoon. The game resulted in a well-earned victory for the local team, which won out by a score of 9 to 0. Until the fourth inning neither team had succeeded in sending a man across the plate, but in that portion of the game the Chathams started their run-making end kept it up until the end. The bat teries were Brown and Bryap, for the Chathams and Dixon, Madison and King for Thomasville. This afternoon athe Chathams will play the Atlanta team, which they defeated two or three weeks ago.
