Several Revellers Wounded
by Shot and Knife
■ The, spirit of war that pervades
■the' lancls\beyond the seas has
, reached. the\ negro colony that
lives about Neyy Ulm, and the
casualties almost equal the oper-
ations around Liege, numbers
considered.
Last Saturday night the col-
ored population of the vicinity
assembled on the feast grounds
adjacent to the little red cottages
south of the Katy railroad track
and near the station house.
As the festivities warmed up
differences arose among heated
guests and a free-for-all fight
. broke out. When the smoke and
^Llin of battle cleared away about
^Ken participants and by-standers
■ were found to be more or less in-
■ jured, none of them fatally, how-
■ ever.
■An inventory of the casualities
ihved the following injured:
Ihll Minton, received pistol
■ wound in leg, accidentally.
^kg Stokes, knife wound on
■\IcGregor, I bruised and
■with a knife.
■ Davis, flace badly
body had -
ly beaten up; » I
Several others got slashed by
knives but their names have not
been secured.
Dr. Schmid attended to some
of the wounded; none of them
are serious injuries.
Deputy Sheriff Rudloff has
names of several of the alleged
assailants, and took possession
of a horse belonging to one fugi-
tive who left without having time
to mount his nag.
Mrs. Emilie Schmidt
After an illness extending over
/ the past several years, Mrs. Emi-
' lie Schmidt, nee Voelkel, died at
her home at Haw Creek Monday,
Aug. 10.
Deceased was born in Shelby,
Austin Co., Aug. 8, 1866, and at-
tained the age of 48 years and
two days. A husband, Mr. Fred
Schmidt, eight children and four
grandchildren, besides numer-
ous other relatives and a host of
friends, are left to mourn her
demise.
Rev. Brascher of Round Top
conducted the funeral services
^..and spoke touchingly at the
grave of the departed. The es-
teem in which deceased was held
was attested by the large funer-
al cortege, and by the beautiful
floral offerings that were brought
as tributes of love and affection.
Our sincere sympathy is ex-
tended to the bereaved.—Fayy.
