BOY SCOUTS.
The Boy Scouts, ^roop No. 1,
of Conroe, had a big time Mon-
day night ^at the Log Cabin.
They had all of the fried
inter for the relators, J. A
Mooney and others.
■" Most of this documentary
evidence concerned the sale of
$800,000 worth of county road
bonds and showed that after ac-
ceptance of a btd had once been
set aside the bonds finally were
sold to Gurley A Gurley of Chi
cago, the county being paid a
$19,000 premium. The record
■showed that Commissioners A.
W. WHford and W. H. Boyd
who were made parties to the
impeachment writ, but who re-
signed before service of citation
voted for the sale and that
Judge Johnson voted with (hem
when it became necessary to
break the tie caused by the ad-
verse vote of the other two com-
missioners, Scott McMillan and
1. R. McGinnis.

For boys* steer riding, Reu-

The base ball game between
Conroe and a team from Hous-
ton was pretty exciting for a
few innings, but Conroe got so
far ahead that it took most of
the excitement out of the gam*.
The score ended up 16 to 5 in
favor of Conroe.
