The Late J. N. Dingman.
Jasper H. Dingman was born In Fifth
Town", Prince Edward county, Canada,
April 17, 1842, and died in Tionesta, Pa.,
Dec. 24, 181)2.
The people have had another lesson of
the uncertainty of life and tho certainty
of death, and have beon moved to feelings
of docp sorrow and regret. One of our best
and most respected citizens has gone to
that "bourne from whence no traveler re
turns." Mr. Dingman moved to Titus
villo, Pa., in 1865, where be engaged in
the mercantile business till 1874, when he
located in Forest county and engaged in
the stave and lumber business with Mr.
J. II. Derlcksnn until 1888. when the firm
was mutually dissolved. (Since (lien he
has been in partnership with Mr. A. II.
Dale iu the lumber business. He was al
ways very attentive to hia work, a man ol
tlno business capacity, and hence success
ful. He was an active member of the M. E.
Church, leader of tho choir. Knncrli ioo.
, (
dent of the Sabbath school, an energetic
worker for the temperance causo. Presi
dent of the Epworth League, a member
of the R. T, of T., and I. O. O. F. All
these societies will sadly mourn tho .loss
they have sustained. Ho was conscien
tious In all this work, and labor for the
Great Master was his chief end. As a
worker in Ihe Sabbath School ho had few
equals, and bis school has sustained an
irreparable loss. The last work of his
life was for the Sabbath School, in pro-
I arinz for the Crilelirnlirm nf Phriulmu.
On the eve of his death he began and part
ly completed a large transparent star, on
which the word "Jesus." in larn-e letters
was written. This star, although unfin
ished, t-bows his Inst thoughts were ot
Jesus, the star of his hone, and bis lnui
act was an effort to place that grent light
oeinre nis school and point the scholar to
the Savior.
M r. Dingnian's health, until about three
ears ago, when hp suffered a severe, at
lack of sickness, bud been good. He rall
ied trom this illness and keot in actlvt
business until Tuesday preceding his
leatu, wnen lie was lorced to keep to his
room. No immediate danger was nnure-
hended until Friday evening, when bis
physicians told him ho could live but a
diorttime. He calmly received the in
formation, and was perfectly willing to go
into the hands of his Ood. Shortly I cfor.
death he talked with his family, gave bis
boys good ad vico how to live and meet
lilni beyond, where parting is no more.
Among his last words were, "Tell my
fi lends all to meet me In Heaven."
The interment took place in Riverside
Cemetery, on the morning of Dec. 27ih,
after which the friends returned to the M.
E. Church, where appropriate services
were ci-nducled by Rev. Rankin, assisted
by Revs. Rumberger, Small and Hillard.
The floral tributes, the last tokens of
respect of the societies of which tho do-
ceased was a member, were varied, elah.
orate and most bea 'tiful. 1 he Eoworth
League placod upon the casket the em
blems of its society a Grecian cross, in
pink roses and ferns, with the letters "E.
L." gracefully wrought of Immortelles
iviiiit in relief nn the crosH. Tl.u l...,i,.H-
lully illustrated how patiently the depart
ed had borne the cross of life, always
Keeping the cross of Christ above all
others.
The tribute of the Sabbath School, was
a column ef white roses, carnations and
ferns, with loiters "M. E. 8. S." iu blue
immortelles on its base. This silent
voice snoke volumes. Ha niu lh ui
column or support of the Sabbath School.
Also, the column is broken! who can

was a wreath of roses, nvcianths. carna

in immortelles. The W. C. T. U., of
which he was an honorary member, irave
a large bouquet of white roses tied with a
niagnuiceni wnite ribbon, the emblem of
the society and a cymbol of purity. One
oi tne great pleasures ot the deceased was
worg for the cause of tonnicrance. He
never failed to speak a good word or put
his shoulder lo the wheel when opportu
nity offered. These flowers speak more
than the pen. They soon will witherand
die, but their recollections will never
lade, bo with lite it is short and soon
passes, but the that men do lives ufler
thm as an oasis to brighton the desert
of life.

Dear Sisters: To all those who have
not renewed subscriptions to "Union Sig
nal" I would say renew at once. Try
hard to have a much larger club than ev
er before. I hope each Union has at least
one copy of the "daily Union Signal" to
read of the great meeting in Denver, and
that each Union subscribe for enough
copies of convention number "Union
Signal" tn go round. Canvas your Union
and locality throughly for subscribers to
"Signal" and "Bulletin." The Bulletin,
as you know, is our state organ, and only
2.rx!. a year. Ifyouseciiro ten aubscrib-
31-s for "Union Signal" at 1.00 you can
get an extra copy for free distribution, or
for jail, or for some one not ablo to pay
for it.
Ask your Y's to snbscribo for "Oak
and Ivy Leaf" and for "Bulletin" thai
they may be posted, and help them work,
as National and State Superintendents
have letters and plans in these papers.
Send atoncotoyoui County Supt., or to
Mrs. F. 11. Raxtall, Temple, Chicago, 111.,
for catalogue h r 18!2, and select those
leaflets best suited to your locality
and lines of work. Do not torget the
Young Cruseder" forchildron, "Youths
Temperance Banner," and "Water Lily,"
and the autograph pledgn cards In bo
used at thu World's Fair. Have pledge
curds at your meetings for men to sign.
"Responsive Monthly Readings" and
liible Readings" are very helpful at
regular meetings aud add greatly to the
Interests. Space will not permit me lo
speak of the leatlets aud publications. I
refer yon tn Malinda Allen's letter in

Keep an account of tho nuniberof lexllcU
