Dkatu or Mil. John Shipper,—Died
of consumption at his residence in Pine
Grove Mills, on .Saturday Sept. Hth, in tho
sixty-ninth year of his age. Mr. Shlller
had been in delicate health for some years,
hut still able to do light work at his trade-
For tho last two years he was unable to do
anything, and was confined to his boil fur
the Inst eight months of his life awaiting
patiently anil calmly his end, expressing
tho fullest confidence in God's grace and
covenant prorniso to his people. It was
evident that ho could not recover but every"
tiling that kind bands could d<> was done
for bis comfort. Inexorable death which
comes to all in due time, silently stole upon
bim nnd culled his spirit home from among
his family nnd friends.
Iti his demise the wife has lost a devoted
husband, the children a loving and indul
gent father, the relatives a true friend and
tho community one of its best citizens
The loss sustained in his departure is keen
ly felt. Ho was a man of simple habits
and of truth and honesty from principle a
firm advocate of right and justice between
man and man. Th" deceased was b"rn
near Sunburv, of this state, on the 2d of
Fell., IKI .I, of Irish descent, though ho
could speak German. His father, John
Shitfer, emigrated to this c untry in im
early day, ari l - rved in the war • f 1812.
He spent his Inst days with L 1 a son and is
buried in the Pino Grove cemetery, where
his j-ra%e is pr qerly c mmemorated by
the G. A. R. every Decoration day.
Mr. Shitfer was one of our oldest i iti -
zens, having lived on the sani" place for !
15 year*. 11.-was married to I'. lly Win
gard November, I*ll. Tho fruit of tl.i- i
union was 7 children, three sons and f .r '
dauglit' rs, ail survive l.irn e\ -q.t <i. • n •
who died in his infancy. The y< .ng-st J
daughtci is marred to Dr. G W \\ ■. !<.
and live in theo',,l Shiffer h me with wh en
no doubt Grandmother SbifTer will spend j
her declining years.
Mr. Fhitfer was an active member of the ,
M K. Church, ar, 1 wa- a dev ted and
ard'-nt christian. The remains . f the d<
cea . I were interre lin tl I';r.• <>r
cemetery, on Monday at lOo'clock a m ,

but whether they will stand by bim at this
juncture is not known.

mnndable. The gas company and the steam
healing company have a right to consoli

propose to do. But there is one feature < f
this new enterprise in which the tax payer
of Bellefonte ha* a deep interest. The
capital stock of the gas company ia-S"A

to $75,(0K1 in order to raise the means to

- ' however, owns one hundred and e-ghty
{share of gas stock, tho actual value of
which i b>ut $4,700 This slock is the
property of the lav payers. We under
stand tba t it M proposed by the steam
heating p.srt of the enterprise to induce
the borougtr council to assign the 180
share* to this new consolidated
and accept therefor an equal amount s.(
stork of the new concern. We protest
against thi* pn -coeding. ThU borough U
burdened with an lndebtdneof $lBO,OOO.
It* only available <wset to meet thi* in
debtednew are these 180 shares ol gas slock
worth $4,700 and the WRler works. The
balance must be paid by the levy of (axe*
