Private car so of the Gul,
Coast Line, having on board JEFF
n Miller, vice president and gen
eral manager, W. J. Carnohan
general superintendent. and G. d.
Huestis, division superintendent
and Harry Burns of the Wabash
railroad, who is a guest. In answer
to the question if there was any

He told THE HERALD man, how
ever, there was no hot air about the
proposed club house at Point Isa-
bel. The construction gang will
be down within the next thirty
days, and work will begin at once.
The Improvements proposed will
cost in the neighborhood of S25,-
600, and it is intended to make
Point Isabel one of the most at
tractive places on the Texas coast.
The fishing is all that could be
desired. almost every species of the
hnny tribe is to be found, while
during the hunting season game of
all kinds abounds in that vicinity.
It is there the silvery tarpon shows
his cleaning sides, and seems
to bid defiance to the angler. He
has never been seriously disturbed
in his ganlbols, aud when the club
house has been completed and
sportsmen begin to congregate,
they will find one of the best tar
pom fishing grounds on the coast.

bilities for development.
