DR. GARDINER IS DEAD.
Death Claims Prominent Physician - Heart Failure the Cause - Was Attending Patient at the Time.
At 11 o'clock Thursday morning, Dr. Charles Gardiner dropped dead at the home of Mrs. Hatcher on Neosho street. He had just finished an operation for tonsillitis on a member of Mrs. Hatcher's family. He preformed the operation successfully and was stepping out into the adjoining room. There were only two other ladies present when the operation was performed and one of these noticing the doctor stagger as he stepped from the room and followed him. As he stood in the other room he seemed very pale and could hardly stand alone. The woman took hold of his arm to support him. As she took hold of him he suddenly collapsed and fell toward her. He was dead before she could call for assistance. The remains were taken to the doctor's residence, 728 State street.
Dr. Gardiner was born in 1847, his childhood home was in Poughepsie, (sic) N.Y. He enlisted at an early age in the 2nd New Jersey cavalry with which he served two years and a half during doing scout duty and other hard services.

He has served several terms as a member of the Board of Education, without pay, giving unstintingly of his time to the children's interests, looking into and bettering sanitary conditions of the buildings, advising with and assisting the teachers in the multiple duties of their position. As a practitioner he was eminently successful and held a high place among the physicians of the west he was a genial, kindly man, best liked by those who knew him best, doing the tasks of life with a full measure of energy and shrinking from no duty, public or private, no matter how hard, if it came to him as a duty, and when it did come as a duty he was fearless in its performance.
The bereaved wife has the sympathy of the entire community, in her loss.
The funeral arrangements will be announced later.
