townsman Benjamin Shaffer, of east
High street.
Away back in the last century, Ben
was just a lad of eight years and went
to live with Wilson Taylor, then a
very prominent lawyer in Indiana,
Pa, and a member of Congress in
1872. On the next lot to the Taylor
home George F. Hamilton had a tin
shop and Ben loved the snips, and the
charcoal forge, and the rolls and the
solder iron and all the other things
a boy could play with in the shop.
Loved them so much that he stuck
about that place until he was eighteen
and had the trade that made a man
of him and led to the comfortable
i status he has now, that he is on the
other side of the hill.
When Ben left the Taylor home an-
other boy went into it and that boy
was John S. Fisher present candidate
for Governor of Pennsylvania. They
were great pals and it isn’t any won-

honor that has been accorded his
chum of years ago.

Nearhood’s Garage, at State College
Ravaged by Fire.
The brick and concrete garage of G.
Melvin Nearhood, at the western end
of State College, was completely gut-
ted by fire at an early hour on Tues-
day morning. The fire was discovered
about 1.30 o’elock and the entire in-
terior of the garage was already in
flames so that it was impossible to
save any of the contents. Fortunately
Mr. Nearhood did not have any new
cars in stock, but five second hand
cars were burned. Only the walls of
the building were left standing and
they may be damaged by the heat.
Mr. Nearhood carried some insurance
but not sufficient to cover his loss.
The barn on the Mike Furl property,
in Boggs township, was burned on
Monday with some feed and farm im-
plements. It was insured for five
" hundred dollars.

Gordon, in which were Mr. Gordon,
his wife and three children, Mrs. Gor-
