He was tho son of Philip Stambaugh, one of the pioneer settlers, and followed farming until ho retired. No citizen In the western part of Mercer county was better known than Mr. Stambaugh.

He was a friend to all who knew him, and generous to a fault. He was of retiring disposition, honest In all his transactions and his word was as good as his bond. He had been a Republican all his life, and boasted of having his ballot for Abraham Lincoln for president. He was a man of keen intellect and insight, and by good business investments had accumulated a comfortable fortune. Having been born In this vicinity he had witnessed the growth of Sharon from a mere hamlet to its present size.

Several years ago Mr. Stambaugh purchased the residence of Niveri Mcqonnell on East State street and removed from his Hickory township home to Sharon. He is survived by his widow and the following children: Mrs. A. L.

Geo. F. Kameror, Bessemer Pharmacy. ANNIVERSARY. Dr.

Henry Warren Roth Preaches on His Seventieth With a Purse. Dr. H. W. Roth, D.

arrived at the age of seventy years on Sabtiath, the 5th day ot April, 1908. Ho was Invited to preach by the congregation of which he was pastor in ttie long ago. He delivered an eloquent and Impressive sermon from tho text "Verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man keep my saying, he shall never see death." (John 8:51.) Judging by his energetic manner, his strength of expression and his earnestness, we would say that Dr. Roth was not old, but seventy years young. In his sermon ho neither said or made the slightest allusion to himself or tho forty years of useful and efficient service he had given, not only to the church, but to the uplifting and betterment of all the people.

The example of Dr. Roth, his walk and conversation, and his exalted i character, has had a charming influ- this community. As a friend and companion, he is a joy to life that greatly helps us to "The heartaches and the thousand shocks that flesh is heir to." There was present a large congregation of Dr. Roth's church people and many old friends and former pupils, of all denominations. Rev.

Oberly delivered a very eloquent, earnest and appropriate address, on the life and great work of Dr. Roth giving an exhibit of of the high, regard in which he was held by, Dr. Passavant and many other prominent scholars and theologians in America; also his labor, not only for the church, but for the cause of education, the establishment of Thlel college, the building of a great church and theological school In Chicago with a branch in Milwaukee, the promoting of hospitals In Chicago and Pittsburg and many other good works that did honor to his name, and gave us some knowledge of his desire to labor for the benefit of his fellow men and his ability to perform It. There was one honor that was not brought out or mentioned," In that Dr. Roth was once chaplain of the United States Senate, Being in the city of Washington, he was introduced to Senator Ingalls, president) of the Senate, who invited the Doctor to act as chaplain for that day, which he did to the great satisfaction of the senators.

At the conclusion of Rev. Oberly's uddress, he presented Dr. Roth with a purse as a token of the high regard in which he Is held by all the people the community. SOCIAL AFFAIRS. Clinton N.
