CONCERTS TO BE GIVEtf TWO he Savers and Spenders Taken From the Files of The Observer, Dated Thursday, June 15, 1893. j TWENTY YEARS AGO j IN DALLAS j The spenders are all in one bunch you know the type always trying to buy a good time, always looking for some place to squan der their small amount of cash on hand and when each year rolls around they are no better off than they were a year before. There are two kinds of savers. Both are prudent. The one puts his money in a bank where it is safe and will earn a good rate of interest the other looks around for a good investment for a place to put their savings where it is not only safe but will increase and produce in a very short time, two or three dollars more for every one invested. To the latter class belong all suc cessful men and women with but few exceptions. The small investor does not have many opportunities to realize large profits. But there is just now a most un usual opportunity for the people of Dallas and vicinity to put a few dollars where they will multiply rapidly. Millerst The most exclusive residence sec tion of Dallas is that opportunity. Right in the section where Dallas has to grow lays this beautiful tract. Today you can buy a fine lot for $125.00 on easy terms. What will these lots be worth when streets are graded, side walks in, water mains laid, all of which we are going to do? What will they be worth in two or three years when Dallas is double its present size. We do not know we only know you will never again be able to purchase at the present prices after July 1st, they will advance 10 per cent on that day. Join the throng of early buyers.

They were given some mon ey and something to eat and started on the road again." The Bridgeport correspondent re lated that Mrs. Penrose of Inde pendence had bought the right of J. W. Anderson and filed on the piece of land adioining Doc Miller s place. She was having lumber delivered on the place for the purpose of build; ing a house. Members of tiie graduating class of tine Dallas schools were as tol lows: Fred Palmer, Herbert Elliott, Willard Elkms, Gifford Lady, Eva line Hibbalrd, Newton Guv, Tent a Kimball, Emma Phillips, Ross Ellis, Attie Elkins, Sarah Harris, Minnie Greenwood, Maud Lewis, Vern Sco- bert, Hugh Black, Ora Rhodebarger, Homer Lehman, Lydia Campbell and Travia McDevitt.

Huntley 94.50: Ou the second day of the Dallas Chautauqua we are to have the Ar tists' Trio for our musical attraction. This is a splendid company of ar tiste, consisting of the eminent vio linist, Carl-Frederic Steckleborg, the Norwegian soprano, Miss Charlotte Bergh, and Mrs. Steekleberg as pi anist and accompanist. Of Mr. Steekleberg much has been said, as he is an artist of real worth. Miss Bergh, who, by the way, is not relat e d to the Sfecklebergs, has a pure lyric soprano voice ot great range and beauty. She is dainty in ap pearance, filling George Ade's de scription of a preitty woman, which, as lie once said, is "one who is easy to look at." Mrs. Steekleberg as a pianist plays some of the biggest numbers writ ten, with nerve and dash that dis play her artistic ability. The Ar tists' Trio will probably be consid ered the best musical attraction dur ing the series, though some will pre fer the Chicago Male Quartet, while . others will like the Thaviu Grand Opera company of the Georgia Ju bilee singers besk D.
