Hapkis, Rector. Great Increase in Price of City Lots During the summer of iSgg almost the entire territory east of Uo.x Butte avenue, owned by the Lincoln Land Co., was unoccupied land. It was Use less to attempt to sell lots over there on account of the big draw. F M. Broome, local agent, took it up with the company with the view to selling it to the city and was granted authority to offer to the city fifteen blocksat $180 per block. By reason of short sightedness of the then town authori ties the offer was rejected and Mr. Broome entered into a compact witht H. C Kennedy, then street commis sioner, to sell out as much of the tract as possible for cheaper residence lots. Mr. Kennedy having had large experience in that line of real estate, started a boom that tesulted in selling several blocks during 1899 and igoo. Home building soon began- Stree'ts were graded and lots filled in to raise them above the draw and that was the begining of what is now an important residense section of the city, Since that time the entile east side of Alliance has been built up- The forty-acre tract sold to the Fair Asso ciation took out a big chuuck of the territory followed by sale of the south twenty to Mr. Drake, find then (he north forty to Mr. Dodge who platted the new Belmont addition and sold 'all of the lots within the pa6t thirty daps. This left hut a tract embracing fifteen lots as ibe remainder of the land owned by the company on the east side and this tract Mr- Broome sold to Dr. F. M- Knight last Thursday. During these years Dr. Knight has gradually In creased his possessions in this territory because of taith in the future value of the property, which is the only avail able site for a public park or exposition ground, by reason of the naturalTo pography of-the ground. ' The part of the tovwi site now owned by the company lies at the west of Box Butte avenue, and as evidence that the demand for lots continues out there, last Saturday Mr. Broome sold to William F. HInman three lots directly noithof W B. Young's new residence, and one lot just south ot the hospital block. Mr. Hinman is a late comer to the city from Ravenna and himself and wile are living with their daughter.Mrs, Gregory, wife of Dispatcher Giegory, until they get a house built. Were it not for the scarcity of mechanical labor in Alliance a great many uew buildings would be under construction, but this fact alone is eviddnce of prosperity. Peter Thompson of Minatare, son-in-law of Geo. Douglas, arrived Monday for a few days'visit- He is accompanied by his two boys, Noel and Leon. : KENNEDY BROTHERS , , UC.IN 1 IO 1 O. -Office in Alliance National Bank Blk Over Postoffice. ml . 8. 1 1 UOUC jyi, HOLY ROSARY CATHOLIC CHURCH Order of Services Sunday Masses, 7,00, 9 00, and 10:30 a. m., except 00 the third Sunday of every month when the order is 9.00 and 10.30 a m.

It Is Easy to Save How can a man, on a Btiiall salary, get married and furnish a home with out 11 bank account? The answer is easy. He can't- Of course he can get married if he can find a thoughtless woman who will not take the trouble to investigate his finances or his saving and spending habits. But he can't furnish a home without starting the new life carrying a heavy debt. This wouldn't be fair to the one who trusted him, There is nothing like a savings ac count if you would keep poverty ut arm's length and some day have a residence on easy street. A great many people think it is of no use to save up Unless they have n large .amount of money tpstar jvjth. .This is a mistake. It is the Binall amounts, saved systematically from month to month, that go to make up the Mrong- I est barrier against need. We do not know of a better way to get a good start in life than by opening a savings account with the Savings De partment of the First National Bank. Even if the deposit is only a dollar or two, it will serve ns a nucleus around which will gather other dollars and some day a good sued account will be at the disposal of the depositor.
