ADDITION TO Be BUILT.
Keep Your Optic on Belding and
Watch Her Grow.

Surveyor ID. G. Crawford of Ionia
was in the city Monday and set the
stakes for the addition to the new fac
tory which will come much sooner
than was anticipated. If the weather
continues favorable it is very prob
able that the work of putting in the
foundations will be proceeded with at
once and the building erected just as
soon as possible in the spring. An ex-
tension of Alderman street was also
laid out running north from Main st
direct to the factory tower, and from
there running west in front of the
building to Bridge st.
AS has been before stated this adj
dition or extension will be 202 feet in
length to the west, bringing it out
practically to Bridge ST., and making
the entire factory over 400 feet in
length. 1t may also be four stories
high, and will give the mill capacity
for a thousand operatives. If the
city of Belding had few more friends
like Bedding Bros, who are all the
time planning and doing something to
build up and improve the city, and
few less kickers who do nothing but
kick and try to undo the good work
performed by others, we would be a
great deal better off and would have
a city with 10000 population in very
short time. Why not everyone put
their shoulder to the wheel and help
the good work along instead of trying
to pull down.
But Bedding is going to grow. 1t is
bound to, and it can't be stopped any
more than you can stop water from
naturally running down hill. The
building of this factory alone will
give us big impetus forward, and
although the past season has been a
good one and great deal of building
done, we confidently expect to see a
much better one next year. Keep
your eye on Belding.

Miss Addie PringIe Dead.

Miss Addie Pringle after a most
heroic fight for months has at last
been conquered and her spirit has
passed away She has been a great
sufferer. She was taken some two or
three years ago with some trouble af-
fecting one of her limbs and it has
gradually but surely grown upon her.
She kept about as long as possible
but finally had to give up and take
to her bed. She was then taken to
Grand Rapids and treated with a
physician there for some time and
afterwards had it amputated as her
only hope. For awhile she revived
and seemed likely TO fully recover,
and then began to 90 down again.
The end came at O'Clock Tuesday
evening. she leaves mother, two
brothers and two sisters, besides a
very large circle of friends to mourn
her loss. Funeral at the M. f. church
Friday at II o'clock, the remains be-
ing taken to Coral via the lao train
for burial. She was - years old.
