Eugene Lynn is "booming Dallas
Blnnkenship & Blake have sold
their gigantic dry goods stock and

some where, about the best solution
is tina, it was simply scheme to get
on the track OF q package OF money
that was stolen from the express
office in Gainesville. The advertise

a reward of 800 to the finder and
no questions asked.
Dallasites who were fortunate
in beng able to 60, were charmed
with the star, Margaret Mather, as
Juliet. Perhaps the young men did
force, at present they can not supply
the demands.
Some eastern capitalists have a.
greed to put up large cotton and
WOODEN mill, if Dallas will donate a
site for it. OF course Dallas will
gladly do it, as it will give employ to
about 200 hands.
1t must have been ruse, the lind
ing OF $1,000 at the circus Saturday
night, week ago. Evidently there
is some crookedness about the matter
some where, about the best solution
is that it was simply scheme to get
on the track of a package of money
that was stolen from the express
Office in GAINESVILLE. The advertise
ment describes the bills and offers a
reward of 800 to the finder and no
questions asked.
Dallasites who were fortunate in
being able to go, were charmed with
the star, Margaret Mather, as Juliet.
Perhaps the young men did not
enjoy the performance as much as
the girls, as they had to 60 down in
to the depths of their pockets for
extra cash for hack hire. How pro-
voking it is to see the rain come
down in torrents when one has asked
his best girl to go to the theatre
with him! He does not dare to
postpone the engagement on account
of the inclemency of the weather, if
he does the girls will boycott him
sure. Margaret Mather is q wonder
full woman in many respects and is
we'll adapted for the stage in voice,
gesture and physique. The balcony
scene in Romeo and Juliet is beauti-
full when she tells him to swear not by
"The inconstant moon.
That changes monthly in its course lest
Thy vowe prove inconstant too"
Is this too much of q depression ?
If 80, we will confne ourselves more
strictly to facts.
Rev. r. T. Hanks, has bought a
half interest in the Baptist News, a
religious paper published under the
firm name of Holland Il Hanks.
This will probably be his last Sunday
in the pulpit in the FIRST Baptist
church.
A little six year old boy of MIR.
Williams, a grocer of Dallas. ran off
and was seen by drummer in Fort
Worth, he telegraphed to Mr. Hanks

lived on Live Oak street. Mr.. Hanks
smoke of the matter in church Sun
day morning, when Il man arose and
said, shat is my brothers child, he
has telegraphed all over Texas for
him" He started out early, this is
about the fourth time he has run
off. doubtless erratic nature might
be 'nipped in the bud by q gentle
caressing with trunk strap.
Wonders never cease, and al
though it hardly seems possible, it
is quite true that the merchant prince
of Texas, Joe Brown, has failed, and
every body thought he was coming
money. Failed, did you say? Yes
failed, and will leave shortly for
Scotland to recuperate his health.
New York, Chicago and st. Louis
are still wrangling over who shall
have the Worlds Fair in '92. One
of the Astors remarked one night
recently in the Hoffman House, that
.sNey York should have the Worlds
Fair if he had to foot the entire bill
for it." Dallas may just put in her
bid and secure the plum for herself!
The very latest feminine fad, and
a pretty one it is too, are the lovely
little side combs. of gold, silver,
tortoise and cut steel. They are .
