AN OLD BUILDING.

Built 100 Years Ago and Having Buried
Treasures In 1t.
The workmen who for the past few
days have been remodeling part OF the
old Navarro house, corner West Com
merce and North Flores street, for AL
derman Schreiner, the owner, yesterday
uncovered an old rafter in the ceiling, up
on which, in large letters, deeply cut.
was the following inscription in Span
ish: Commenced June s, finished Au-
gust Z, 177S, A. ID. Gen. Agrieto." This
date makes this house within two years
as old as the declaration of Americas
Independence, or los years old. Alder
man Schreiner, the present owner, bought
Ii in 1870, from Col. Navarro, from whom
it takes its name. The property was in
Col. Navarro's hands for many years, and
II is supposed he acquired it from the
Mexican government. Gen. Agrieto
built the house In the year l77S, for the
Mexican government, and it was used as
the headquarters for the governor, for
many years. Indian prisoners were the
workmen used in building ii. MIR.
Schreiner says that when he purchased
ii, there were yet upon the roof signs Of
embrasures in the walls about the roof,
where cannons had been placed for de-
tense.
Alderman Schreiner is also authori ty
for the statement that several thousands
of dollars are buried in one of the rooms
of this building. lie says that just two
days before Col. Navarro was Killed, he
had sold ranch for $1,000, and after
paying some bills outstanding, had
buried the remainder In his sleeping
room. Mr.. S. says he has never had oc-
casiOn to look for the money and never
cared to tear down the old walls to find
it.

The future growth and wealth of San
Antonio depend upon the energy, pub
lie spirit and vim Of her own citizens-a
fact of the existence Of which many citi-
Zens, judging from their narrow views
and niggardly actions, are profoundly
ignorant. They act as II they were liv-
ing In Sleepy Hollow, and had nothing
at all to do towards charging the trade
OF San Antonio. The proposition to es-
tablish smelling works in San Antonio
furnishes fine opportunity for our clti-
and to build up the city. Industrial es-
Establishments are what our city needs to
build 1t up, and we must have the smelt-
ing works.
