Death Of an Old Citizen.

Mr.. c. G. Stems, who lived
seven miles southwest of Bren-
ham, and near the Austin coun-
ty line died very suddenly at
$50 M. on Friday at his home.
He was about sixty years of
age. Mr.. S. was a German by
birth, but had been a citizen of
this county for about thirty
years. He was an honest, up
right and industrious farmer
who was highly respected by
his neighbors. Mr.. Stems, al
though apparently as healthy
man as could be found, was af-
flicted with heart disease and
was frequently heard to say that
he might drop off at any time.
On the evening of his death he
was in his apparent usual ro-
bust health and was playing
with one of his grandchildren
he asked for a glass of water,
but before it could be brought
fell to the floor and expired. He
leaves several grown children
and a number of grand chill
dren. A good man has gone
to his reward,

DEATH OF J. E. RIAL.

On Monday morning at I
o'clock Mr.. ]. E. Rial died at
his residence in this city, aged
Is years, 8 months and Io days.
The deceased was bonn in North
Carolina, but had lived in Ala
bama, Ohio, Mississippi and
Louisiana and moved from the
latter state to Texas in 1864,
being at that time a refugee.
A considerable portion of his
long life was spent in merchas-
dising. When he came to Tex
as he settled in this county
and engaged in farming, for the
past few years he had been in
feeble health and lived in the
city with his family. He was a
good citizen and was highly es-
teemed by his friends. He
leaves a number of relatives
who have our sympathy in their
bereavement.

PUBLIC SCHOOL.

The fourth annual report o
the superintendent of the Bren
ham public schools mas just beer
issued from the press of T. r
Carrick, of this city. 1t is I
very neat pamphlet Of IS pages
and contains much valuable in
formation concerning the
schools, course of study and
working. The total receipts for
the fiscal year ending Aug. 81,
1879, were s6e5I.Is; total ex-
penditures, s6o35.25, OF which
S5,46S.75 was for salaries of
teachers, leaving a balance on
hand of s3Is.SS. The monthly
cost of tuition by total enroll
ment is "a cents; monthly cost
per scholar, by average atten-
dance, sI.2o. The superinten-
dent, Prof. c. P. Estill, in con-
GLIDING his report says:
at is proper that attention should now
be directed to the necessity of school
building, adequate to the wants Of our grow
ing community. This and supply Of ap-
paratus for satisfactory instruction in scien-
tifc branches, arc our pressing needs
Brenham has been the pioneer in establish
ing graded system in Texas. Other towns
have commenced with fine buildings, and
have struggled afterwards in laying the
foundations of their system. You have
wisely established your system first. Now
it devolves upon US to crown the work with
suce structure as will add usefulness to
our schools, and do honor to our city,"

SMALL FIRE.-About 9 O'Clock
Tuesday morning a fire broke
out in the roof of Mr.. c. AS
beck's kitchen at his residence,
near the German Methodist
church. The hands working on
the Santa Fe grade, a few blocks
distant, were the first to discov-
er the flames and going there
soon succeeded in extinguishing
them. Damage very slight
Mr.. Asbeck says, "bully for the
railroad hands. The fire alarm
was sounded, and the depart
ment turned out in full force,
but the distance was so great
that before the fire boys could
get there with their machines
the FIRE was out.
