The Anglo-Saxons love sport. No

them. Wherever the restless Anglo
Saxon dominates the love of sport is
dominant The Americans are-at

this virile race, and nowhere Is the
love of sport so much exhibited as In
this country Our people are patrons
Of horse racing. of baseball. of golf. OF
football. of all out of door sports as no
other people. The English are great
sportsmen. but not TO the extent that
Americans are, for the reason that the

RUMoR OF VETO IN WIND.
Said That Governor viii Disapprove
New Penitentiary Bill.

Austin, Texas. Sept 9.-There is
well-defined rumor going the rounds
of the house that Governor Campbell
would veio the penitentiary bill, due
TO the concession made by the house
in the question of appointment of the
penitentiary commissioners. The gov
ernory according to one member of the
house, is quoted as saying that he
would disarprove the measure should
ii be finally passed providing that the
commissioners shall not be appointed
until Colquitt assumes the reins of
government. The governor also does
not like the provision to appropriate
any money at all out of the general
revenue fund. and this may also be
the cause for his disapproval OF the
measure Should he veto the bill ii is
not likely he will reconvene the legis-
lature TO enact another bill

ilege of naming the prison commits

reform, and no capable men would
want offices for such short time

ported the Looney motion. Mr. Nickels
offered substitute, instructing for
the amendment previously offered by
him in the house, making the commits
sioners elective instead of appointive.

from the people, and wanted 10 give

COMMERCIAL CLUB NOTES

There was a well attended meeting
of the board of directors at the ad-
journed weekly session at o'clock
last evening, and two subjects we're
the interesting feature, viz. the loop
extension of the interurban TO cover
the schools and academies. and also
of population that will begin soon,
owing to the starting of work on the
two dormitofies at the A. q NJ Col
lege. Careful calculation estimates the
number of workmen at over one hun
dred and fifty. A large majority are
skilled mechanics. All of them will
be in Bryan over a year, and many
of them will settle permanently in
Bryan. This is the past history of all
public work that where large num-
Der move to a city for some special
long time contract many of them be-
come attached to their new home and
become permanent residents These
newcomers have all got to be housed,
either as boarders or housekeepers
In Bryan there is quite a number OF
young (and some older) people who
are now renters. All of them have a
comfortable income; they feel that
they are not able to own home. but
have a real homesick desire to own
their own home. Now, you are the
ones to relieve this situation of houses
for newcomers. You will also become
home owner. AT the meeting yes
terday the club arranged that you can
have home built % suit you, and

You any more than it would if you
were to pay cash. except the interest,
which will be very small as compared
with rent. In few short years you
have home, free and clear, and you
have the satisfaction of. knowing that
every hours work that you have done
in any little improvement of beauti-
flying that home has been done for
yourself.
The secretary will be delighted to
discuss the plan with you at once, take
your application, and you can be liv-
ing in your own house in month and
the one you live in will be ready for
newcomer. Do not delay this mat
ter, but take it up now.
The other question of Importance to
all Bryan was that of building an ex-
tension of the interurban line to villa
Maria and Baptist Academy. Mr.. Gam
meps proposition was received and re-
ferred to committee appointed by
the president, consisting of Messrs.
H. o. Boatwright. G. S. Parker and
Ed Hail. This committee later ar
ranged to meet at the First State
Bank at 8 O'Clock this evening, and
Mr.. Gammel viii meet with the COM
mittee and go over the plan in detail.
The committee will probably report
upon the plan soon and It is to be
hoped that this extension win be made
