THOMAS Z. REPLOGLE

  Thomas Z. Replogle, a former resident of Altoona, and a brother of L. 
Z. Replogle, the well known shoe merchant of this city, died at his 
home in Providence, R.I., early yesterday.
  Mr. Replogle and his family had resided in this city until ten years 
ago, when they moved to Providence.  He had been in failing health for 
the last two years but his condition had not been considered critical.  
He was born in Woodbury, Bedford county, February 7, 1858, the son of 
Daniel and Elizabeth Replogle, both deceased.  When about 40 years of 
age he moved to Roaring Spring and served as postmaster of the borough 
for a number of years.  He moved to Altoona in 1900 and resided here 
six years.  While a resident of this city he was engaged in the 
insurance business and was also employed in the clothing store 
conducted by his brother, at Eleventh avenue and Twelfth street.  He 
was united in marriage to Miss Tillie Mock, of Woodbury, who survives 
with four children: Robert Spencer, Mrs. Idella Brunner, William and 
Miss Sabina, all of Providence.  Two brothers, L. Z. of this city, and 
C. Z., of Carlisle, also survive.  When in this city Mr. Replogle was a 
member of the First Brethren church.  The body will be brought to Blair 
county, the funeral announcement to be made later.
