His influence is also felt in large bust
ness enterprises beyond the borders OF
the state. When the vast system known
as the Erie railroad became almost in
extricably entangled and the interyen-
ton of the courts was necessary to pre-
serve the property from financial ruin,
Gen. Mccullough was chosen Il receiy-
er. Within the last two years. mainly
by his efforts and energy, the road has
been returned to the stockholders re-
stored to sound financial basis. In
his business enterprises abroad he is
associated with such men as Chauncey
NJ. Depew, Gen. Benjamin F. Tracy
and other eminent business men and
financiers.
The general is a devoted husband
and father, and aside from his social
ties, his warm and genial disposition
has won for him large circle OF
friends and acquaintance.

DIED IN CUBA.
The Wife of Senator Thurston, Mem
Der of a Prominent Vermont Family,
Suddenly Passed Away.


Der of Prominent Vermont Family,
Suddenly Passed Away.
Mrs. j. M. Thurston, who accom-
panied her husband, the senator from
Nebraska, on his trip with other sem
ators and congressman to Cuba, died
there of apoplexy Monday morning
of last week.
Senator Thurston is former resi-
dent OF Montpelier and Mrs. Thurs
ton was niece of Joseph Poland and
of Mrs. John l.. Tuttle of Montpelier,
being a daughter OF Col. and Mrs.
Luther Poland. They have visited
Montpelier several times in recent
years. She was born in Vermont, but
moved with her parents 10 Omaha,
Neb.. about 80 years ago. She mar
ried Senator Thurston December 25,
1872. Six children were born to
them, of whom three survive.
Mrs. Thurston was a woman of
marked intellectual attachments, as
might be expected from one of the
family which produced Luke p. Po-
land. She was an assistant and coun-
sellor TO her husband in his career and
had appeared in court with him in
some of his important cases. Her
literary attachments were considera-
BILE and she was also an artist of merit.
Mrs. Thnrston was deeply interest
ed in the Cuban cause, and only few
days ago had addressed stirring APP
peal TO the women of the United
States to aid the Cubans in their ex-
tremity. She was member of the
Daughters OF the American Revolu-
lion and was recently elected vice
president OF the national organiza-
ton.
Mrs. Thurston married her husband
when he was II struggling lawyer and
had been proud snarer in the sue
cess he has achieved. They celebrated
their silver wedding last fall.

similarly situated. Early realizing
that he would be unable to endure the
rioors of farmers life, he bent his en-
ergies to acquiring professional edu-
cation. The advantages were meagre
in those days but he made the best of
what he had, gathered all he could
from the public schools, worked his
way through college and graduated
with the highest honors in his class
before reaching his twentieth year.
He then centered his efforts upon the
study of law. Securing admission to
the office of st. George Tucker Camp
bell in Philadelphia, he divided his
time between study and practical ex-
perience and attendance upon the lee
lures of the law school of the tniversl-
ty of Pennsylvania, from which instl-
tuition he received the degree of Lib,
and in 1859 he was admitted to prac-
tice before the highest tribunals OF the
state

The Republican Blues, Savannah Cadets

own. The companies arrived yesterday
afternoon at $50 o'clock by the Central.
There are something like 800 Of the young
soldiers, and they were every one brim-
ming over with delight at being back
again with the loved ones at home.
The storm played havoc with the recep-
tlon the men of the First Regiment would
have received, had the weather been fair.
Instead of the big crowd that would have
been at the depot to welcome them, there
were but comparatively a few while the
line of march to the armory was deserted
IN comparison to what ii would have been
on a bright clear afternoon.
The spirit of welcome was abroad, how
ever, and despite the slender crowd, it was
easy TO see that everybody was glad to
have the boys back again.
Those most eager to welcome the compa-
MES began to gather at the station as
early as 3 o'clock, though 1t had been an
nounced that the troops would not arrive
before O'Clock at the earliest. The first
to get to the station were able TO get in,
but those who got there after found
trouble in this. They could not secure adj
mission, as a large force of policemen
was on hand to keep everybody out ex-
cept military men.
The result of this was that there were
many standing outside, seeking shelter as
best they could from the storm. Vice Pres
ident John NJ. Egan of the Central came
up while the crowd was waiting, and he
at once gave instructions for the gates to
