SIR THOMAS UPTON
 ARDENT YACHTsMAN,
 PASSES AWAY LONDON

LONDON, Oct. 3. (P)-Sir Thomas Lipton is dead. He suffered from the effects of a severe cold which he contracted about 10 days ago while motoring.
 He was an internationally fam ous yachtsman and tea merchant and spent more than 20 years of his life and nearly $10,00O,O00 of his vast fortune nursing a hobby to win back for England the America Cup "a silver yachting trophy actually worth a hundred guineas.
 Aside from his long and ardent yachting career, the life of Sir Thomas Lipton was full of many interesting features, although the weather beaten sportsman himself was reluctant to admit it.
 He was born May 10, 1851, at Glasgow, Scotland, of Irish par ents. After a brief schooling, he was compelled to seek work to aid his parents in their struggle for but after two years as a messenger boy, the lure of bigger things got the better of him.
 Slowing away on steamer, bound he knew not where, he land ed in America and worked for a while on a rice plantation in South Carolina. Making his way to New York two years later, he found that fortune still kept far ahead of him, and many night he is said to have slept on park benches. Find ing work at last, he soon had suf- ficient money to pay his way by steerage back to Glasgow, where he landed without funds but with a head full of American ideas.
 Most of all he had been impress ed with the American methods of advertising. Describing tn ese in terms to his parents, who had accumulated a few hundred dollars, he succeeded in persuad- ing them to open a small proiv- sion store He advertised boldly and expensively, considering the capital behind him, and soon made his name known throughout Glas- gow.
 The shop prospered beyond Lip toms most extravagant dreams, and soon another one was opened modelled exactly after the first. After few years he had a whole string of shops in Glasgow and was growing rich. He entered the Lon don field, then Liverpool and Man. chester and at the height of his business career controlled more than 500 stores in England, Amer lca and other parts of the world.
 Tn order to supply his retail stores more directly, Upton bought } tea plantation in Ceylon, to which he later added a coffee plan tation and then a cocoa grove. Finding these investments profit able, he continued to purchase plantations, and soon his teas were known around the world.
 Upton never married, and under English law his great estate nrob- ably will go to distant relatives
 London was the home in which he Baronet spent most of his ,ime, although he maintained sev- sral country places.
