GLADSTONE PEOPLE

A visit to Gladstone shows a num-
Der of substantial improvements for
the past year, among which is the
handsome school building, the
dwelling houses of Nick Herr, Joseph
Kaufman and Gottlieb Schmidt. In
addition to this there has been the
usual remodeling of dwellings and
business houses, painting, etc.
Everybody says that Gladstone, n
of the first towns in Stark county, is
more prosperous than in former years
and there is good reason to believe
that the claim is we'll founded. The
four elevators Of the place have al
ready taken in over 100000 bushels
of grain and are crowding the 100000
mark and if the estimates Of various
parties that rs to 40 per cent Of the
wheat is still with the farmers, is cor
rect, the total grain marketing will
reach nearly a half million bushels.
This is a great deal for a place the
size Of Gladstone.
The Geo. w. Lee Co. perpetuates
the name of n Of the Oldest resi-
dents of the county. Rufus B. Lee,
son of the late Geo. W. Lee, is mana
ger of this estate. The mill was
burned some years ago, but the grain
elevator, lumber, machine sheds and
warehouses remain much the same as
when built. Mr.. and Mrs. M. c.
Brown are with the firm. Mrs. Geo.
Lee has Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Prindle
with her in the home, while Mr.. and
Mrs. Rufus Lee occupy a cottage near
by. Considerable live stock is grown
on the Lee farm, such as purebred
Aberdeen Angus cattle and Poland
China hogs. From so to 60 acres Of
corn r grown each. season, also tim
othy and other fodder crops.
The Jopp store building, a part Of
which was erected about 1885,. has
been enlarged for the increased stock
carried by Kirsch & Jopp. The late
his r life '0p pE Sp this the st sssi paf Mrs. 81
Jopp resides with her daughter
and still enjoys quite good health.
Peter Kirsch: the son-in-law, who
married Miss Elsie, is a .areful ;oung
business man. He erected a $4,000
home last year, where his family, the
mother, Miss Gretchen Jopp, who is
with him in the store: and Grover
Jopp are very comfortable. Grover
has g mechanical turn OF mind and
spends the most of his time repairing
machinery and thinks strongly of
erecting a garage the coming spring.
Mrs. Mary Turner is another of the
pioneers of Gladstone. Her daughter,
Mrs. Oscar A. Dietsche, teaches music
and writes an interesting Gladstone
news column for the PRESS every
week. Postmaster Dietsche gives the
