The Ravenna Brick & Tile Co. has burned
its first kiln of brick numbering I8o, 900. COM
pleting the burn Monday, four days in advance
of the date fixed upon. We were shown some
of the specimens, and they are certainly by far
the best bricks of their class we ever saw. They
combine the merits of full size, smoothness and
fine quality. and are almost equal to pressed
brick, so far as their appearance and finish are
concerned. The company has very superior
bed of clay from which to draw their material,
experts pronouncing it among the best deposits
in the country. The difference between these
bricks and those of the ordinary mould and
material is that between a good and inferior
quality of sandstone. The company is equipped
with every facility to handle this magnificent
material as it should be, and in the near future
will turn out pressed bricks that will not have a
superior in the worlds markets. This is an en-.
| terprise of quiet but substantial growth, ant
those at the head have steadily pushed its busi
ness from the first. The prospects for this in
dustry are of the brightest kind.

Unable force and effectiveness to her deeds,
Her moral excellencies found a fit counterpart in
her fine mental endowments. She possessed a
mind of great depth and thorough culture, and
when in 1884 she graduated from the Ravenna
High School. her scholarship was among the best
of her class.
She was an exemplary member of Grace Chur ch
and an active worker both in the church and
Sunday School, only last Winter laboripg with
willing heart and hands in decorating the church
Tor the annual Christmas festivities. This was
the last time she evar attended the service she
loved SO well. The energy that sustained her in
the accomplishment of her self allotted labor
forsook her at the close of the Christmas service
and from that time she failed rapidly utiI the
seal of her early departure was too plainly seen
on her pale countenance.
In social circles she enjoyed the same affection

Her funeral was held this afternoon at o'clock

Her remains were borne to the funeral car by
