Death, of Mrs. H S. McCulIoeli*
Mrs J I McCulloch, widow of
Gen Henry E McCulloch, died
Sunday night at the home of her
son-in-law, W S Brown, in Rock-
port, and the remains passed
through San • Antonio Sunday, ac-
companied by her oldest son, CapR
Ben E. MeCulloch, of Austin, en.
route to her old home at Seguin,
where she was buried Monday.
In the death of Mrs. McCulloch,
Texas loses another one of those
grand pioneer women, of whom she
was so justly proud. Her father,
John Ashby came to Gonzales in
1831, when she was a small girl,
and for the last, sixty-five years she
has been a citizen of Gonzales and
Guadelupe counties. She was one
ol those who participated in what
was known as the “Run Away
Scrape,” m 1836, when the citizens!
fled before the invading Mexicans,
while Gen Houston and his army
were retiring to the battle ground
of San Jacinto. In her many long
years of frontier life she was a wit-
ness to numerous thrilling scenes
and experiences, the recital of
makes one shudder in these
days of civilization.
This is a campaign of peace and
and brotherly love as far as this
county is concerned. The popu-
lists are not abusing the democrats
and the democrats wouldn’t say
anything bad about the pops for
the world. The republicans are
sawing wood and saying nothing.

NOTES OF THE GAME.
Max Ruhman ?nd “Bad” Whit-
ting had a collision in the sixth
inning and both were knocked
down.
Tuehanpl-A man on ike grounds
was Mr- E. J. Merrem, assistant
postmaster. He was chosen to
umpire the game but- got out of it.

would have never survived the
game.
Brunner made a fine double play
in the fifth inning. *
The Gazette suggests a game be-
tween a picked nine headed by
Youngs, Murphy, Schneider, Max
Ruhman and Brunner and the
Moulton Jackrabbits. Such a game
would be worth seeing.
