 HELD LAST NIGHT
Several Subjects of Interest Discuss ed at Lively Session of the
 League Members.

The annual meeting of the Business lsMen's League which was to nave been held last evening was postponed un- til next Tuesday evening at which time the matters scheduled for last nights meeting will be taken up and acted upon.
 The regular monthly meeting prov ed lively session and a number of business matters were taken up and acted upon.
 Principal among these was the pro- posal of President Harry Wescott, of the state fair. that Hot Springs come to the rescue of Little Rock in the matter of the Confederate reunion de- ficit and give financial aid to the capital city in wiplng out this short age.
 The appointment of a committee was proposed to solicit a fund to be rendered. to Little Rock as a matter of financial aid, as well as to endorse the spirit of good feeling between the two cities.
 The matter was threshed out in dis cussion at length and the question was finally centered in the approval of any and all voluntady subschip- tions for this purpose. It was not demed expedient at this time, how ever, to appoint committee to so- licit funds. Committees are already ] out soliciting for the state fair and the railroad funds and the people of Hot Springs win be called upon to contribute s7O.O00 for these two en- terprises.
 As the matter now stands all Hot Springs people who desire to aid Lit tie Rock in the matter of her reunion deficit are asked to leave their dona tions with president c. X. Rix of the Business Mems League to be for warded to the committee at Little Rock.
 The Spanish American War yeter- ans of this city presented a petition to the league for financial assistance to send a company to the annual res union at Oklahoma City. It is the purpose of this company of veterans to endeavor to secure the next an nual reunion for Hot Springs, and al- so to promote the matter Of building a national sanitarium for these vetsf- ans at Hot Springs The matter was referred to the executive committee with power to act and report will be made at the meeting next Tues day
 The matter of the picnic and civic ce ebration to be held by the league June 22. was taken up and discussed informally, but no further action was taken, as the matter is now well un- der way and progressing satisfactor- ily.
