The irurblo found is of a splendid quality, suitable for monuments and on a par with the Vermont marble and of easy access to get to.

The boring at Feet failed to show any bottom. Mr.

Scanlan expects to make arrangements with the Illinois Central smd Iron Mountain railroads to jmt in switch arcl thereby getting the material mi the market.

A sister of the chad three years, drank some of the poisonous water also and for a while it was feared she might suffer the same fate as that of her little brother, but at last reports she was thought to be out of danger, although still in a state of semi-stupor. The children were poisoned late Saturday afternoon.
