Edmund Bersch. former mem
Der Of the House of Delegates,
pleaded guilty before Judg e
Mcdonald in the criminal di-
vision of the circuit court to the
charge of bribery in acceptin G
$2500 of the $47, 500 Doodle fund
for his vote on the city lighting
bill in 1899.
Sentence will be pronounce d
Friday. Bersch was called to
trial with Charles A. Gutke,
Charles F. Kelly and Charles j.
Denny, all indicted on the sam e
charge. Kelly and Gutke now
desire to be states witnesses in
further bribery Investigations
They want to go before the
grand jury and tell things that
have not been told in the hope
of gaining leniency.
1t is believed that they want
to "turn up somebody who ha S
"thrown them down.
The cases we're continued to
July II, with the understanding g
that they will plead guilty un-
less in the meantime they are
called as states witnesses.
IT they are called as states
witnesses in the meantime, it
will be before the grand jury ,
as no cases are to be tried befor e
that date in which they could
be witnesses.
And it is stated upon what is
considered reliable authorit y
that Kelly will tell who sen t
him to Europe, which mean S
that some big fish are to be
caught. If so, it is to be hoped
that James Campbell will be in
the net and then it will be
learned why he was not plac ed
on the witness stand in the Blu t,
Ter case. The S47, 500 Ichec K

ARTIFICIAL STONE
Better and Cheaper Than Brick or Stone.
Being Manufactured in Monroe.

Realizing that there is big
and growing demand for build
ing stone and that the artificial
stone is better and at the same
time cheaper than brick or stone
Evan Smith has bought a ma
chine Cor the manufacturing of
concrete building blocks. He
can make a block any shape OF
size up to IS inches long by 12
inches wide. The special fea.
lures of these blocks are the air
spaces, making a fire-proofr
frost proof, damp-proof build
ing; they are equal in appear
ance to natural stone; can have
any desired form or finish! cost
less than stone or brick. Cou-
crete construction has passed
the experimental point and the
making of concrete stone is d
business that will grow and Mr..
Smith has a business that will
increase as the years go by. He
has just put in a foundation of
concrete stone for J. o. ellison,
which has been much admired
by those who have seen it. He
now has the contract to put in
such a foundation for a house
for Byron Mcfarland and for
the erection of three large store
rooms at Stoutsville for Rice,
Ellis & Henderson. These gen
tlemen have been figuring on
brick, brick veneer and stone
and have decided that the con-
crete blocks are what they want
taking everything into consid-
GRAFTON. AS there is plenty Of
building stone at StoutsviIle.
this contract is quite an en-
dorsement for the concrete
block buildings. The manufac-
turing of stone is a business
that will grow and consequent
ly is of interest to all our peo-
pie. Mr.. Smith can furnish the
stone in any desired quantity
and of the size or finish desired.

steers of the high class that have been
