number Of arly a hundred gathered
at the old club house last night at
the urgent request of the president
and secretary, to consider ways and
means for providing funds to furnish
the new club house President Miles
Frederick Gilbert explained The Sit
uation briefly stating that the build
ing was nearly ready to be turned
over to the club by tn contractors,
but that the fGrniture could not be
bought because there was no money
! in the hands oftbe committee, This
was dire 10 the fact that the steam
h atng gas fitting and plumbing had
cost considerably more than the com,
mittee had estimated on paying for
these, when the contract was let
The regular income Of the club could
not be used to m a the cost Of furn-
ishing. because ii had been pledged
for the bonds, and he appealed to the
patriotism of the members to agree
upon som plan for procuring the
furniture at once SO that the new
house might be opened creditably. He
called on J S. Aishorpe, Of the Build
ing Committee. to state the clubs
financial condition
Mr.. Aisthorpe reported that the
building fund was S3005S.63, there
had been paid t $24,12512. leaving
a balance Of S. 933.5l There was a
balance due on contracts Of $G,035.67,
leaving a deficiency of $102.l6 in the
fund. The estimated cost of futnitur
was $2,249.33, light posts in front of
building $500, walks and fence $3.50,
grill room and kitchen $3.50 bonds
due July /, S1000--total $4,304.33,
There was in the general fund ST.
1855 which after paying balance due
on contracts woGfd leave a baianee Of
81. .7G3.1S and this would have a ds-
ficiency Ct $2,541.15 on cost of com
pleting and furnishing the new club
house. he urged that this be arrang
ed for and believed all members
should con ribute toward that end IN
order that all might stand on tn same
footing as all would receive the bene
fits
II, r. Halliday suggested that
committee Of five be chosen to see
members who had not subscrib d ana
ind ce them to do SO.
Ex-Aldcrman Wood said some mem
bers m ght no find 1t convenient TO
subscribe $40 while others could give
much more He was willing to have
his subscription raised TO $25.
Mil S. Gilbert thought all sub
scribe $lo and be assessed that sum
If ii could be done.

Natural Leaf

is a brand that has found great
favor with the chewers of Fine
Tobacco in Martinsburg and vi
cinity. When we first undertook
to introduce it some thought that
it would not go on account of
there being no trade on Natural
Leaf Tobacco, but we were con-
fident of its going, as we sell it
throughout the South in immense
quantities. So we put it in the
hands of Retailer and found that
our judgment was good. Nearly
every Store has it on sale and
nearly everybody knows the fine
taste that it possesses. Taylor's
Natural Leaf can't help but be
good, for we make it out of the
very best leaf that grows. If
yo've never chewed any of Tay-
lor's Natural Leaf we unhesitat-
ingly say that there is an enjoy

never before gotten out of your
