1T WILL NOT SHUT DOWN.
The Fire Brick Factory to Con-
t1nue Running Through
out the Winter.

The stockholders and officers OF
the Friedrich and Stove-lining
company held a meeting in the
real estate office of Lakenan &
Barnes last evening. The object
Of the meeting was to determine
what course to pursue in the man
agement of the works during the
present winter. Rumors to the ef,
feet that the works would be shut
down until spring have been going
the rounds among those interested,
but the proceedings of last nights
meeting do not indicate that they
have any foundation. In a con-
versation with a reporter for this
paper this afternoon, Mr.. J. T.
Llewellyn, secretary of the COM
pany, said:
81 do not know anything of the
JUNIORS concerning the probability
of our works shutting down. l do
know that we will continue to
make friedrich just the same this
winter as during the past summer
and fall, and we will continue to do
so, indefinitely. I cannot say how
many persons we will keep en-
ployed throughout the winter, but
it is certain that the works will
not close down on account Of severe
weather er from any other cause
that presents itself now"

Filtration by Mail.

Miss Eta Siepp, a society young
lady Of Columbus, Indiana, re-
Gently saw an advertisement in a
northern paper signed John NJ.
Merden, Manitoba, Canada, !"
which stated that the advertiser
was DESTROYS Of getting married
and requested any young lady who
wished to become his wife to write
to him. Miss Seipp, for sake of
amusement, answered the cad"
supposing the great distance which
separated them would prevent the
wife-hunter from paying her any
personal attention. This was q
mistaken notion, however, for
without any correspondence on
Morden's part, Miss Siepp on Sun
day received a telegram from him,
which stated that he was coming to
claim her for a wife. He reached
Columbus yesterday, and at once
proceeded to hunt up the residence
Of Miss Siepp, where he created q
scene. His visit was a complete
failure on his part, he being q YER
table type Of raw northern woods
man, but he is still in Columbus
and says he is determined to get
himself a wife before he returns
| home.

January /, 1850, Secretary of

mate the population of the State in
1890 will exceed 5000, 900 and
the increase in the 10 years from

80 per cent. In the estimate for
next year he gives St. Louis 45u,-

the other large cities in the State
As follows: Kansas City, 100000;
