MR. SAMLETP. BOONE
DEAD AE HOME HERE.
'Aged Citizen of Americus
Passes Away.
v
SUMMONS CAME QUITE SUDDENLY
(hough Long in 111 Health His Imme
diate Sickness Was of a Day’s
Duration—His Life in
Americus.
Mr. Samuel P. Boone passed away
at 6:30 o'clock yesterday evening at his
residence on College street, the end
following a brief illness from indi
gestion, although he had been in
very feeble health for many years.
The passing away of this genial
gentlenjan, though ripe in years and
after a long career of usefulness will
cause sorrow among many friends
in Americus who esteemed him high
ly.
He was seized with indigestion on
Sunday and survived but a few hours,
the end coming very peacefully at
the close of day yesterday.
Up to a late hour last night the
funeral arangements had not been
completed, pending the expected com
ing of relatives. The interment how
ever, will not take place until Wed
nesday, even at the earliest.
One of the oldest citizens of Am
ericus has thus passed away.
Though a North Carolinan by birth,
Mr. Boone had resided for more than
half a century in Americus and was
thoroughly a Georgian by adoption,
and most estimable citizen.
He was born in Fayetteville, N.
C., on March 23d, 1832 and, there
fore, was more than 75 years old.
Early in 1855 he removed to Am
ericus and for more than fifty years
has resided here, an honored and es
teemed citizen who, during a long
business career, was fully identified
with the city’s growth and progress
and commercial interests.
Upon coming to Americus he en
gage in the furniture business, but
later disposed of his interests there
in and became connected with the
large house of Harrold, Johnson &
Co. Here he remained until failing
t health ten years ago forced his re
tirement.
In 18GC he was married*to Miss
Elizabeth Harrold, who, with a son
and daughter, Mr. T. H. Boone and
Mrs. Walter R. Dye, survive him.
This union was an ideally happy one,
and the beloved family have the sym
pathy of all in this first breaking of
the Tie.
Mr. Boone was a member of Cal
vary Episcopal church, and than he
none other was more devoted there
to.
About a year ago he received a
slight stroke of paralysis, and while
able since to go about, accompanied
by an attendant, he never fully re
gained his strength, and his decline
in general health is largely attributed
to the paralytic stroke.
Mr. T. H. Boone arrived last night
from Macon. Mrs. Dye is in Santa
Fo and cannot be reached by wire
at this time, unfortunately.

that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure

being a constitutional disease, re
requires a constitutional treatment.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internal

1 GATES IS TO FOLLOW
THE CROKLR
Sells Stable, and With “Boots”
Durnell, Goes to England.
SARATOGA, N. Y„ August 12.
John W. Gates is to make liis future
home in England, where, like Richard
Croker, he will live the life of a
country squire, with a large racing
establishment to give play to his love
of the sport and speculation.
This is the true meaning of the
sale at public auction on the 16th of
the stable of “Boots” Durnell, in
realty the property of Gates, and the
coining departure of that astute horse
man for the other side. When Gates
and his son, Charles G., sailed away
several days ago the elder Gates was
in no humor for a discussion of his
plans. Charles announced that the
“old man was grouchy because he
had to get up too early.”
The grouch, however, was of, lon
ger standing than the morning’s in
terruption of his beauty sleep, and
his plans for making his future home
in England were fully worked out,
so that a short cablegram from Liver
pool on his arrival there was enough
to settle his. only remaining interest
in this country not definitely fixed
prior to his departure.
The Limit of Life.
The most eniment medical scien
tists are unanimous in the conclu
sion that the generally accepted lim
itation of the human life is many
years below that attainment possible
with the advanced knowledgn of
which the race is now possessed. The
critical period, that determines its
duration, seems to be bet wen 50
and 60; the proper care of the body
during this decade cannot be too
strongly urged; carelessness then be
ing fatal to longevity. Nature’s best
helper after 50 Is Electric Bitters,
the scientific tonic medicine that revi
talizes every organ of the body. Guar

Men Past Sixty In Danger.
More than half of mankind over
sixty years of age suffer from kidney

REV. THOMPSON NOW IN CHARGE
Meetings Yesterday Were Full of In

Resumed There.
Owing to the recent disaster to the
gospel tent, which was badly torn
and rent by the storm on Saturday,
the union meetings held daily on the

at First Methodist church, where large
crowds attend each day.
Services were held at the church
Sunday and on yesterday.
Every effort is being made to repair
the damage to the tent and raise
the structure again, and when this is
done, which wlil be by tomorrow, daily
services will be resumed there.
Rev. Allen Fort again filled the pul
pit on Sunday afternoon and night,
preaching forceful and eloquent ser
mons at both services. Despite the
inclement weather, a great congre

ter upon each occasion.
Yesterday Rev. Nathan Thompson
of Griffin, came to assist in conduct
ing the tent meetings.
Mr. Thompson preached both in
the afternoon and at night at First
Methodist church to large congre
gations. His style is most pleasing
and his delivery clear, concise and
convincing. He will conduct the
meetings during all of this week.
Mr. Fort may conclude his work
here for the present, much to the re
gret of hundreds, who have heard
him during the past week.
