Mr.. F. A. Gale has purchased lot No.

Reports from Antioch have it that our

partly sown some of his land to oats.

Iankton complains of the great scarcity
of brick. The predicament which now
stares builders in the face is possible
scarcity of brick in Canton. A large
amount Of building is contemplated for
the coming season, and nothing but
short brick and lumber supply will pre-
vent extensive preparations being made
There is an abundance of good brick clay
near by and there is no doubt but the
manufacture of brick would be immense

several parties here who are giving brick
making their attention, but it is too early
yet in the season to give names and facts.

Died.

On last Friday evening, Mrs. E. W.
McCord, at Canton, D. r., aged "A years
and five months.
The above sad occurrence happened in
Canton, at the residence of DR.. NJ. NJ.
Clark, when the beloved wife of DR.. Nc
Cord died after brief illness of only five
days, from quinsey. Mrs. McCord, dur
ing her brief soiourn here was fast becom-
ing general favorite with our people, and
when the sad announcement of her death
was first mentioned it was with an aston
ishment Of wonder and pain. Dr. Nc
Cord, previous to his coming to, Canton,
acted as commercial agent for a Chicago
wholesale drug house, but gave up the sit
uation and accepted lucrative position
with our Mr. James Kellar, the druggist.
The mortal remains of Mrs. MoCord were
inferred at the Beloit cemetary on last
Saturday afternoon and large circle of
friends followed thither as token of en-
dorsement and to pay their respects to
lost and departed friend. 1t is the inten-
ton of DR.. McCord to take up the remains
of his dear wife shortly and have her bur-
led at Waverly, Iowa, her former home.
