Navasota Public Building Bill.,
Yesterday’s dispatches in the
Galveston Yews contained the
following, which is in line with a
bill introduced by Senator Cul-
berson last year, though of more
material benefit to Navasota
since Mr Moore’s bi” deals di-
rectly with Navasota:
Washington, March 30.—Rep
resenative Moore introduced a
bill appropriating $10,000 for
the purchase of a site for a pub- Arthur Horlock goes to Rous

The Five Hundred Qub.
The Five Hundred Club en-
joyed an animated session on
yesterday afternoon from 4 to
6:80 o’clock with Mis sEva Dris-
coll in the role of hostess charm-
ing. The attractiveness of Miss judge to divert a bank deposit
Driscoll’s pretty home was fur-
ther enhanced by an artistic ar-
rangement of palms and ferns,
and a profusion of cut roses.
The players progressed from
six tables and bidding ran high,
as the score of each game was
registered on dainty score cards.
At the conclusion Of the sixth
game dainty refreshments of
strawberry cream and and angel
cake were served—and this, the
second assembling of the Five
Hundred Club, scored as a de-
lightful success.

The Boys Will Try For a Complete
Reorganization.
.....— I
For several days .there has
been a good deal of talk about
organizing a ball team for the
coming season and*much specu-
lation has been indulged along
the line of a park, as well.
Those interested desire to raise
funds sufficient to erect a board
fence of proper height and a
grandstand. It is contemplated
to derive certain revenue from
advertisement to be placed at a
conspicuous point on the fence
fronting the grandstand, and
for other little privileges. With-
in the next few days a commit
tee will begin a tour of solicita-
tion among th© citizens, and in
that connection the boys request
all those who feel that they can-
not contribute to please refrain
from pouring cold water on the
movement. No one y will be
blamed, of course, for not con-
tributing, but many a movement him,.Iter bis re-
of this sort has been sadly in- “ * .
