REST AND PEACE IS
NOW HERS AT LAST.
Mrs. Harold Sinks Sweetly
to Sleep.
A SWEET PURE LIFE is ENDED
After a Long Period of Suffering
Which She Bore With Christian For.
titude, She is Called to Receive the
Crown Awaiting Her on High.

The announcement last evening OF
the death of Mrs. Uriah L. Harold,
while shaft of keenest sorrow in the
hearts of hundreds here who knew and
loved her well, was not wholly unex-
pected among those who for weeks
have sadly realized her condition and
knew only too well that the Angel of
Death was lowering low over that de-
voted family circle.
Toe end came to her sweetly and
peacefully, as a weary one falling
asleep.
just as the sun sank to rest and b d
the earth good night she, too, bid it
good night forever as her gentle spirit
poised for its flight to realms above.
So calmly did the light go out that
those weeping about her scarcely real.
lied that the end finally had come.
And In the passing of this pure,
sweet and holy life, spotIess and immac-
ulate ever, pail of deepest sorrow
hangs over one of the happiest homes
in Georgia where for nearly half CEN
fury she was the uncrowned queen; an
ldollzed wife, devoted mother, a true
friend, with love and charity for all and
reproach for none. THUS had she lived
and died.
And the whole people of Americus,
in dropping tear upon her bier, can
say in all truth ''well done, good and
faithful servant" Surely a nobler,
better woman never lived
Through recent years of acute pain
and suffering she bowed with christian
resignation, and no murmur ever es-
capped her, Her greatest love was fol
those about her, and these bestowed
upon the ilolized one every tender
care aud sweet ministration. And the
parting scene, with all save a. absen
one gathered at her bedside, was on,
pathetic in love and devotion.
DR.. Charles G. Harold, who is IL
2 New York, was the only one of eighI
sons and daughters absen', and h,
will arrive here tonight.
: Mrs, Harold was the eldest daueh
ter of tae late DR.. Fogle, prominent
citizen OF G )lumbus, where she wa
united in marriage to Mr.. Harold il
1861. Since that time they have re
sided IN Americas, their long married
life being an ideally happy one-a per
feet union of hearts as of hands. Hel
life has eyer been one of kindness
benevolence and radiantly beautiful
withal.
Mrs. Harrold's only sister, Mrs. w
L. Pfohl, of Columbus, was at her bed
side when the end came. All that il
mortal of this pure and good woman
will be laid forest tomorrow afternoon

Advised.

Attorneys In Police Case are Thus
Advised.
The Supreme court rem1ttitur IN the
Americus police commission case will
be sent here May 8th. Some surprise
has been expressed at the non arrival
of the paper already, and two days ago
attorneys here interested wrote the
officials In regard thereto. Yesterday
reply was received from Clerk z. ID.
Harrison to the effect that the minutes
of April 9Th. on which date the Ameri-
Gus police case was passed upon, would
not be approved until Monday next,
and under Rule 80 the'remititur cannot
be issued until May 8th. The Ameri
Gus police commission case has been
dragging YEARLY along for years in
the city council, in the superior court,
at the ballot box and in the supreme
court, but under the recent ruling of
that august body, favorable to the
newly elected board of commissioners,
the end of the fight seems near at
hand.

a DEMAND FOR BANK STOCKS
Such Securities In Georgia Good
Investment

Stock in we'll managed Georgia
bank, even those of comparatively
small capital, is considered as good in
vestment as one can make, and such
securities are in demand not only 10
cally but by investors abroad. Not in
years has share of stock in either of
the Amerlcus banks been offered on
the market The dividends are from z
to 10 percent, and there is nothing bet
ter in the way of an absolutely sure in
vestment. Further evidence of this
fact is given by the Madsonian, ofre-
cent date, which states that Mr.. George
Fort, former citizen of Americas and
now for years connected with the
Treasury Department at Washington.
has addressed circular letters to the
Madison banks inquiring if there is
any of the local stocks for sale. The
Georgia bank as good security and
dividend payer is all right, even in
the eyes oil the Treasury Department
people.

% A few days ago Mr.. Compton, the lone

in a new outfit which included a stylish
silk hat, the pride of his life. An af-
ternoon or two since, while transport
ing merry party down to the dell,
one of the jewellers sitting just behind
Compton pulled his gun and took a
pot shot at that beaver while 1t still
graced the alabaster brow of the own
