sir Hemin Apparent ia The Local Mili tary Circles. NEW NO JOIN COLORS. HUI City Cadets m Skirmish Drill Tonight. ——** Tbe war fever is at its highest wi ,|, rhe local military just now. C Jis hftV© been issued by Capt. W. A. Patton, of the nome Light Guards, and II. A. Stewart, of the Hill City Cadets for meetings of their respective commands tonight. There are from 12 to 15 appli cations for memerbship in the Light Guards to be acted on to night. All these will doubtless be enlisted and will swell the ranks of the famous old Guards to figures that approach a war footing. The Cadets report quite a number of applications for mem bership and the officers state that their enlistment rolls will show over 50 men ready for the war on tomorrow. After the armory meetings this evening Capt. Stewart will carry his command through skirmish drill on Broad street. The Guards and Cadets are members of Companies A and B respectively, of the Third regi ment of the Georgia Volunteers, Col. R. b'dier Thomason, ‘of Madison, oeing the gallant com mander and an officer greatly 'beloved by his men. Should volunteers be called for, for the army of occupation , in the invasion of Cuba, one and perhaps both of the Rome com panies will respond to the first call. Other companies would doubt less be forn ed promptly, and would tender their services to the nation and hasten to join the colors when planted on Cuban soil. SUPERIOR COURT.
