 NEW CLUB QUARTERS Though nobody could be found who would give out the facts in the case authoritative ly. there is a very credible story afloat on the streets to the effect that the Arizona club will shortly move from present quarters to the second floor of the HOrner building. It is understood that the club will utilize the entire floor and will move in. in a very few days. even though the build ing has not been remodeled yet for its convenience. It is said to be the plan to use the front rooms as they are, while the rear rooms are being transformed into a billiard hall. This will then be used as a club room until the front apartments are changed into reading and writing and lounging rooms. equipped with buffet and all the necessary cOnveniences of an ideal club.
