To build a new club house and acquire larger grounds at an sxpendltura of 100,000 was the decision, reached by tha Omaha Rod and Gun club at a special meeting held at the Crelghton Institute last night, Ths Interest of the club in the proposi tion waa shown by tha number who an swered tha call of the president, John A. Scott, the first floor audience room of the institute being filled with enthusiastic members. As a result of the deliberations and dls ousslon which held the club fo more than two hours it was decided to form a realty corporation to acquire the new property and hold It for the club, aa the latter cor poration is hampered b an authorised capital stock of only $10,000. More than $?,000 worth of stock In the new holding company was subscribed at the meeting and arrangements were made for commit tees to take up the work of soliciting the additional amount necessary. It is ex pected that the necessary amount of stock will be subscribed within a short time, as the membership of the club Is now larger than at any time In Its history and Its financial affairs are In a flourishing con dition, as was shown by the report of the treasurer, A. P. Whltmore, which wes read laet night. Mr. Scott addressed the club at some length, explaining what had been done by the president and directors In the way of providing larger grounds, and with the aid of a map pointed out the traots which have already been secured either by op tion, purchase or permanent lease, for the club. Fifteen acres embracing Kast Omaha park have already been serured and ne gotiations are pending for the purchase of additional tructs. It Is thought that the initiation fees and yearly dues of the club will be raised in the near future. The matter was discussed last night, but no action will be tuken un til the annual meeting In February. President Scott expressed himself as more than pleased with the showing made and expects the matter to bu pushed to completion In a few months. Among other features which are. . contemplated for the coining year are a dancing pavilion and bathing beach, both of which will bo ready for use by next spring.
