Very* Probable That The Third And Fourth Will Also Come Here. it is vLry probable that the Fifth Georgia regiment, together with their excellent band, will have their annual encapment this year either at Cum berland or St. Simon. A committee from that regiment ar rived in tin* city Sunday nigot and yesterday, they visited both resorts, were shown over the drib grounds, etc., and seemed much pleased with both places. The commute was com posed of T.S. Parrott, Captain Com pany' O, and also editor of tho New man News; Major W. W. Barker, commanding of the third balalion; Col. Lewis Kenan, of the governor’s stafT. The t.nree gentlemen were seen by a News representative and in speak ing of tthe encampment, they said that committees from the regiment were Inspecting St. Simon, Cumber land, Tybee, Atlantic Beach and that a decision would e made within the next tew days. The three gentlemen, however, seempd to think tnat the encampmept would he held cither at St. Simon-or Cumberland. Capt. Par rott. to the reporter, sai.l: "1 believe a majority of the mom hers of the regiment are in favor of holding Iho encampment at St. Si mon. The regiment encamped there several years ago and all tlitf mem bers were much pleased, hut, there being no note! accommodations now, some of the members are opposed to the place, as they would bring their wives, mot'nqrs, etc. However, if the people of Brunswick will give the regiment, some assistance, f think they will come anyway. "A large number of the hoys are also in favor of Cumberland, and we understand that Col. Jacobi will man age the hotel, which Insures ample accommodations,as we know him oj be a capable summer resort manager. For this reason Cumberland is favor ed. but Sf,Simon is favorrtl on ac count of the short distance to Bruns wick, and the boys could visit, the cit\ frequently at a small expense. At any rate, I believe the reglmetnt will finally decide to encamp at St. Simon or Cumberland.” The people of Brunswick should take this matter up with the . Fifth and n set every effort, to secure the en campment,, as It would mean consid erable for our merchants and _ the people generally. The committee stat •■'J to the News representative that at lease 800 would attend the en campment, aqd not only that, but the committee from me First, said their reigmerit .would be followed by the Tnird and probably by the Fourth, which would mean obout. twenty-four hundred! military boys besides their wives, mothers, sweethearts and friends. Manager Jacobi, of Cumberland, will do everything possible, to get the regi ment there,and if the people of Brunswick will join in we stand a mort excellent chance of securing ♦he encampment for either Cumber land or St. Simon. The committo left yesterday, part of them going to Atlanta, while Major Barker went to Atlantie Beach to fnvost igafe the possibilities of en camping there. Machinery Is Idle.
