PRESIDING ELDER DEAD.'
i Methodism Loses the. Rev. Henry
Bascom Browne.
Columbia, March 8.?News was
received in Columbia yesterday of:
the death in Kingstree at 2:10;
o'clock yesterday morning of the
Rev. H. B. Browne, presiding elder i
MothnHict Flnisronal church.!
Ul IUC ?UVI."UU?UV ?
He would have been 64 years old
had he lived until July. The funeral
and interment will take place at
^Florence at 11 o'clock this morning.
Mr. Browne was for 39 years a member
of the South Carolina conference,
for 11 years a presiding elder,
for 19 years on stations and for
nine years on the circuit. He was a
leader in the missionary work of the
church and active in ts educational
interests. A widow and two sons
survive him. .
i
Henry Bascom Browne was born
in Anderson county and was a pupil
in Ebenezer school under the late C.
C. Reed. He studied Latin in Columbia
under Prof. McCartha. Most
of his theological education was procured
through Chautauqua correspondence
courses. His first marriage
was to Miss Mollie Moody, of{
Columbia. Mr. Browne was married
in 1894 to Mrs. Maria B. Chase,
of Florence. |
Duncan's "Twentieth Century
, Sketches" contains the following es,
timate of Mr. Browne's character:
"Mr. Browne has been an indefatigable
worker, but has thriven nipon
it. In pastoral work, he has
strengthened the weak and comfOht
ed the sorrowing and dying; in the
pulpit he has been a faithful dispens-1
er of the word of life; as an organizer
he has especially excelled. Faithful
and painstaking, his work all
along, whether in the pastorate or on
the various conference boards, has
been characterized by depth and
thoroughness and has possessed a
lasting quality, as his brethren will
1 testify. ... He is a manly man; he
thinks along high lines and strives
' to reach high ideals."
Finds Man in Fairfax Store.
\
Fairfax, March 7.?A young white
man who says his name is George
O. Zile was caught by night Watchman
Rabb about *11:30 o'clock last
night in G. A. Sanders' store, having
| broken through one of the glass windows
in the front of the building.'
The young fellow may have had an
accomplice as Mr. Rabb was alone
and had to take his prisoner to tlfe
. lockup without having a chance for
further search of the store.
Mr. Rabb, while on his rounds, noticed
one of the front windows was
. broken "and went to the back door
. to see if it was open and shook it
and finding that it was locked he
> waited a minute and the burglar
opened the door and stepped out to
[ find the muzzle of Mr. Rabb's gun
,looking him in the face. He submit,
ted to arrest and said he had come
. to Fairfax from Savannah. He had
. $15 in cash on his person but noth[
ing else of value. The young man is
of small statue, being about five feet,
six -inches tall, dark complexion and
i weighs about 125 pounds.
Being intervied by a correspond;
ent, he said he was 17 years of age
i and that he came here from Savanj
nah but refused tovtell where he was
born or lived prior to that time,
i There has been a number of rob>
beries of stores here within the last
i few months that baffled the police
I force and it was a surprise when this
young man, who is a stranger, was
caught in the very act. Although he
says he is only 17 years of age he
looks older.

From Dr. E. O. Watson.
The following letter from Dr. E.
O. Watson, who is under treatment
at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore,
in the last issue of the Southern
Christian Advocate, will be of interest
to the friends of -the doctor in
Bamberg county:
A wise physician is one of Heaven's
greatest blessings on earth. Such
a physician hurried me off to Dr.
Unrlr^?. T.I T-T . .
ljcli rvci, ui jonns tiopKins hospital.
For a long time, while able to work,
pain had been a constant companion.
Why suffer it always? Why guess at
it when by God's gift in Christ, specialists
may know and possibly cure?
Dr. Barker made a rigid examination,
then divided the man up into sections
and put a specialist on each. No
lurking enemy could escape. Each
man knew his business and each man
not only demonstrated the exact;
science of his department but proved
himself a gentleman.
The examination that, revealed the
trouble was a painful process of
three hous on the* table without anaesthetic
that left the patient (?) unable
to crawl away and kept him four
days in the hospital. Then Dr. Barker
assembled the "pieces," made his
final diagnosis, and recommended
four week's treatment under Dr.
J. T. Goraghty, clearly stating the alternative
of years of suffering with
probabilities all along the way, not
pleasant to contemplate. Needless to
say I am taking the treatment, and
Dr. Goraghty reports most favorable
response to treatment, with assurance
of complete restoration within a few
weeks.
It is hard to be away so long from
home, from a part in the work in
South Carolina, from the loyal people
of Bamberg, for whom and with
whom it is a joy to work, but all is
easy in the hope of being able to soon
to lay hold again with new vigor.
W. B. Wharton is here also. An
exact diagnosis in his case had not
been-reported up to yesterday, but we
believe they will reach the exact
trouble and apply the remedy.
Baltimore is agog with the preparation
of the coming of Billy Sunday.
The tabernacle is a mammoth affair,
....Ll. X - AA AAA
uityauie ui seating some ^u,vuu people.
. It was crowded for the dedicatory
service on Sunday last. Thfe
services were stately and impressive.
It was good to hear the voice of our
own Bishop Wilson sound clearly and
tenderly in benediction over the vast
assemblage. "Billy" was not there,
but comes to open as two or three
month's campaign on next Sunday.'
He is the best advertised individual
just now in America, at least so far as
Baltimore ife concerned. I have preconceived
ideas concerning Mr. Sunday,,
but shall strive .to give him an
unprejudiced hearing.
A great city in which you are a
visitor has so many hundred thousand

whether the community be great or
small, there are so many hundreds or
