DIED.
In Norfold, Ohio, of chronic disease of the heart, Mr. S. MORSE, aged 42 years, 1 month and 5 days on the evening of July 4th, 1883. Mr. MORSE has lived among our people for a number of years and has proven himself a man to be respected by all for his unceasing advocacy of all moral principles pertaining to the up-building of frail humanity. He was a devout Christian, and was ever found trying to convince men of the error of their ways and of the failacy of skepticism. For a number of years he has been a great sufferer. A wife and 4 children are left to mourn his sudden death. He is mourned by all.

In Lincoln City, Neb., June 31st of brain fever, Birdie, youngest daughter of C. and Ella PATTERSON, aged 3 months. Mr. and Mrs. PATTERSON are former residents of this vicinity and have many friends who sympathize with them in this bereavment.

Central House, Waukon, Iowa is centrally located near the Depot and nearer the business portion of the town than any other hotel in the city. The house is well furnished, the rooms airy and pleasant. Good stabling and attentive hostlers. E. KENDALL, proprietor.

LOCAL ITEMS.
It is with many feelings of regret that we announce that our son, E.E. BURDICK, has severed his connection with the Review and gone to take a hand in the battle of life alone. He has purchased the Ossian Herald office and last Monday took possession.

The family of Geo. KERR had sad news from their daughter, Mrs. HENDERSON, at Cherokee; on Tuesday a telegram announced the death of their son, a boy about 10 years of age. Mrs. KERR left on the afternoon train.

A child of Charles BECKER, about 5 years old, died this week, of cerebrospinal meningitis.

Dennis HARDIN has met with another misfortune. On Tuesday afternoon, while his family except a daughter were absent, the house caught fire and was consumed with nearly all its contents. He was at work in the field but after the alarm was given it was too late to save anything. Less than two years ago, his house and everything he had, was taken away by a cyclone, and now all is gone again.

The family of Edward STAADT has been overtaken by painful afflictions. A short time ago their daughter, Mrs. Carl WOEHE, residing in Kansas, was taken sick with diphtheria and the mother, Mrs. STAADT went to care for her. Before the mother arrived, the daughter was dead and buried. Last Saturday, Mrs. STAADT died of the same disease. On account of its contagious nature she could not be brought home for burial and was buried there. Mr. STAADT had just sold his farm and expected to remove to Kansas in the fall. Now what he will do we are not advised.

Little Clay LOOMIS, Rev. Loomis' eldest child, met with a severe accident on Tuesday. She was in MARSTON's shop playing and got hold of the hand ax and struck it into the top of her foot which will lay her up for some time.

A. ERNST of Luana, sends us a sample of a variety of potatoes called Chicago market that beat anything we ever saw at this time of year.

Julius OLESON's residence (on the old Dobson farm) caught fire on Wednesday and had it not been for the presence of several men, would have been burned down. The damage was not great.

Hinie GREEN was badly poisoned by paris green a few days ago. He is improving now.
