If the women of the Civic League
want to do a good piece of work for
Bryan, out of the line of their efforts
hitherto. they can accomplish it by in
yiting the civic clubs of the other
Brazos valley towns to join with them
in organizing a district association,
similar to the one to be launched at
Calvert next Monday by the CONNER
cial clubs. Such an organization would
be productive of great good to all con-
cerned. Its advantages are so mani
fest that if Bryan does not take the
initiative soon some other town may
be expected to do so.

reached from the lobby by two stairs
and an elevator also by trunk ele-

The basement is divided as follows:
Saloon, q feet inches by 80 feet,
with private toilet. This saloon can be
used Independently of the hotel, as 1t
has a side entrance from the street for
the saloon only. There are also large
double doors leading into the elevator

Completely Cured
In That Time

The Neal Three Day Liquor Cure is an
absolute specific for periodical and hab-
itual drunkenness. This Is a strong state
ment, but Il Is Justified by the experience
of hundreds OF patients who have left the
various Neal Institutes throughout the

stroyed, and in a perfect mental and ply
steal state. II makes no difference how

Gus drugs. The Neal Institute is receiv-
ing daily enthusiastic reports from every
quarter Of the country as TO the efficacy
OF the treatment That a. does cure, and

National Base Ball Commission Rem.
derS Decisions Affecting Seven
Major League Clubs.

CINCINNATI. March s-Three decisions
affecting seven major league clubs were
siven out by the National Base Ball com
mission late today. They include a pro-
posed solution OF a dispute between the
Washington American league club and the
Brooklyn and Boston National league or
CARNATIONS over exhibition games in the
national capital next month.
The Boston club complained that II had
contracted for the exhibition games on
April and s. but subsequently It was mott
fled that the Brooklyn team had to appear
in Washington on those days and that
Boston could come April s and g. As
games had been booked elsewhere for
these days. Boston asked the commission
TO intervene.
The commission recommended that Bos-
ton appear IN Washington April and
Brooklyn on the following day 1t was
stated that Compliance with these recon-
mendations will be compelled by the com
mission should its attention further be
called 10 this case"
The commission allowed Elmer VI. Zach
er's claim OF t17l from the ST. Louis Ma
tional league club. which had released him
to Chattanooga Of the Southern league.
This latter leagues season expired before
the National and Zacher was granted pay
the lost time at the rate Of his major
league contract.
The Detroit club Of the American league
was denied a rehearing Of the case by
which It lost title to Player Tico to the
Vernon club OF Los Angeles. The evidence
submitted by Detroit, however. showed
that I1co had falsely represented himself
TO be a free agent and he was fined 500
by the commission.
