Gaudier has Largest Regiment in South. FHE ROME COMPANY And Capt Stewart Highly Com- J plimentsd on ail Sides. Yesterday’s Atlanta Journal prints the (pUowing most inter esting special from Camp North en , at Camo Griffin: Camp Northen, Griffin, Aug. 15. —When the Journal reached camp containin ' the Informa tion that there was some proba bility of the Third Georgia regi ment being sent to Poato Rico at an early date, the boys mani fested much enthusiasm, and mighty cheers, one after an oth er, went up from the different company streets from the throats of the brave boys who are impa tient to “illustrate Georgia in some kind of active service. The Third Georgia, as stated in the Journal recently, is not only the largest regiment ever raised in the South, but ir of splendid makeup in every par ticular, and the officers are deep ly disappointed and despondent over the thought of the growing chances that they will not have the coveted opportunity of see ing active service. Company 1), Cant. Henry J. Stewart, o f Rome, was mustered into the service'last Wednesday with one hundred enlisted men. It is generally conceded that Company 1) is one of the best companies in the regiment in many respects. It is compose i of boys from North and Sout\\ vreorgia, and these men from the land of the pine and wire grass,with the sturdy mountain eers, constitute a body of men that would be a pride to aijy regiment. The muster roll is as follows, and every man is ready for service: Captain, 11. J. Stewart ; first lioutenant, B. T. Brock’ second lieutenant, Max E. Land ; first sergeant, F. C.

On account of the vandalism of a few tough characters who have found their way into the regiment Col. Candler has been redveed to the necessity of in stituting very rigid rules in re gard to soldiers leaving the camp Five men from each company only are allowed to leave the camp each day. Since this order blue coats are not so much in evidence in Griffin. First Lieutenant Benjamin T. Brock, of company D, was com mander of the guard Thursday last, and the first commissioned officer who has filled the place since the Third came to camp. The hospital is practically de serted, there being only a few laid up with some insignificant complaints. The health of the regiment is in ignifi lent, and the sanitary conduct of the camp is fine. Every department is do ing its work well and everything is running like clock work. The companies that have not recruit ed up to their in iximum strength are rapidly filling up and it will be a question of only a short while before the whole regiment is mustered in. Capt. Henry J. Stewarc, of Ro ne, company B, bears the distinction of posses sing the handsomest sword in the regiment, which was pre sented to him two months ago by the citiz iis of R> ae as a token of the high esteem in which he is hdd by hi■< peo ple. He was formerly captain] oi the 11 ill City Cadets. During a severe storm several afternoons ago the tall flag pole from whose top proudly “Old Glory” was snapped in twain, and that defiant flag which was never known to lower to human foe went down before the fury of the elements. It is commmly rumored among the boys today that the regiment will strike camp in a few days and take up quarters in some other part of the coun try. Large crowds of visitors and Griffin people come out and view dress parade every after noon and it is an inspiring sight - 1 1 - ■ 1 " ~ 11 ••Which Wins?” I In nearly every man’s ca r| reer there comes a time when stands between the anj tl \ of tife an< i the angel of £ death, both contending A for ” 101 ta i frame, and the question arises: ’Which wins?” Will i’ e be carried away ■ WKsgA by disease and death or will the angel of (j,// life prove vl'y the stronger JfTmk X a,ld br 1n « hi** l hack to health and happiness?
