Mrs. Rublee's Ashes Interred in Madison

The ashes of Mrs. Horace Rublee, widow of one of Wisconsin's greatest journalists, were brought to Madison on Saturday and interred beside the grave of Mr. Rublee at Forest Hill.

The ashes were brought here by a son, George Rublee, who was the center of a bitter political fight in the U.S. senate when he was appointed to the federal trade commission by President Wilson.

Since the death of her husband, Mrs. Rublee has been living at Lakewood, N. J. In recent years she has been an invalid.

Mr. Rublee came to Madison in 1840 and became connected with the State Journal. He retained a half interest in the State Journal until he was appointed minister to Switzerland by President Grant. In 1842 Mr. Rublee became editor of the Milwaukee Sentinel.
