His father was a prosperous physician
and a man Of taste and culture. The
soa was tenderly reared and early Inn

tons and followed high purposes and
ideals. After attending the common
schools he graduated with distinction
from the University Of Mississippi He
was then scarcely 10 years OF age, aud
had even before this begun preparation
for entrance into the Christian ministry,
which high office he had long adorned
with an almost unexamplcd devotion Of
service and eloquence OF message Even
at this early age he gave evidence Of
remarkable gifts as an orator. One Of
his professors at the University Of Mis-
sissippi was the late Associate Justice
Lamar of the supreme court Of the Unit
ed States. When young Galloway was
leaving his alma mater the great jurist
said;
Charley, and others are glad to
learn that you are to enter the minis
try; some OF US would like to 20 to con
gress from this district"
The transcendent powers Of the bishop,
as afterwards displayed before great au-
dienees in both the Old and the New
World, showed that his early preceptor
had not undeTestimated the possibilities
Of his career. As a public leader be
would have gone TO the highest civic sta
tions as easily as he achieved distinction
in the ranks Of the Christian ministry.
In 1865, soon after his graduation, he
entered the Mississippi conference, In
which affiliati0n he remained until ele-
waited 10 the higher office OF the cpisco
pacy. His devotion TO his native state
was a passion, and yet he was perhaps
the most cosmopolitan and national spir-
tied man TO be found in all the South.

President Roosevelt was a great adj
mirer of the bishop and sought his ad-

policies affected the well-being Of the
people of the South.
As member of the Mississippi con

Der Of appointments, including Port Glib

ONE MAN NOT A TRUST.
Can Control as Much Of Commodity

Albany, n. Y.-The court of appeals

Others, Diminishing the complaint. Locker
claimed the defendant controlled so large
a proportion OF the tobacco output that
its refusal 10 sell the plaintiff its
products destroyed his business.
The opinion Of Chief Judge Cullen
holds, in substance, that whereas a com
bination OF several persons TO withhold
these products would have constituted
an illegal restraint Of trade, one person
OF corporation can legally sell to whom
IL pleases and that the extent OF its
business does not affect its right.

we're attacks, due TO enfeeblcd heart ae-
ton and hardening Of the arteries. Al
though only in his Goth year, the prodi-
gious volume of work he performed as
the Mission Bishop of Metbodism," had
greatly weakened his once powerful ply
sique, and he was in no condition to
withstand the lung congestion that
caused his death.
Nearly all Of Bishop Galloway's loved
ones were at the bedside when the end
came, and others reached the city dur
ing the afternoon, having been hastily
summoned by telegraph.
The passing away of the foremost
bishop in Methodism was quiet and
peaceful There were no death agonies,
no suffering, no anguish OF flesh or spir-
it while the sands Of his life slowly
ebbed away Save for the lsbored
breathing incident to the pulmonary
trouble that was the direct cause of de-
mise, he dropped into eternal slumber
like little child crooned 10 sleep by the
lullabies Of a loving mother.
1t was at first hoped that the illness
Of the distinguished divine would prove
nothing more serious than a severe cold.
Much apprehension was felt by the fam
lily and attending physicians, however,
on account Of his enfeebled physical con-
dition, and this feeling changed to one
Of genuine alarm when a mild form of
pneumonia developed in one lung. All
that medical skill or science could sug'
gest was brought into play, but the low
vitality of the patient, his once pow
erful physique and magnificent constitu-
tion ravaged by the periods of sickness
with which he had been afflicted during
the. past three years, was against him.
In Unconscious State.
One or two moments of consciousness
occurred Tuesday morning. On one oc-
casion he recognized his faithful wife
during a lucid interval, and was able TO
greet his daughter, Mrs. w. 5. p. Ven
tress, when she reached the bedside At
times he was dehrious, talked ineoher-
emily OF his church labors, Of the liter
airy work he had left unfinished, and
once he mentioned the name Of Jeirer'
son Davis.
II was ON the ID of June last, at the
centennial celebration Of the birth OF
Jefferson Davis held at the University
of Mississippi, that Bishop Galloway de
livered the principal address which was
pronounced by literary critics and his
torians 10 be the best summary even
given of the life and character Of the
great Confederate ohieftain.
An All-Night Battle.
Nightfall approached, the breathing
Of the dying divine grew more labored
and the physicians reluctantly admitted
that they had lost the fight No hu'
man agency could prolong the life Of
Mississippi's best beloved son.
The end did not come, however, as
soon as physicians expected. Although
in an unconscious stais, at the very
threshold OF death, the latent energy VI
Bishop Calloway's once powerful ply
sique asserted itself. and throughout tho
