J. P. DOWLER.

  At his home in Burnside on Saturday night, John Patton Dowler, aged 
about 60 years, died from a self-inflicted gun shot wound, just after 
his wife had gone upstairs.  Mr. Dowler was in apparently good health 
and spirits.  He was in comfortable financial circumstances and no 
reason can be assigned for the deed.  His wife only survives.  There 
are a number of relatives in Altoona and vicinity.  The funeral service 
will be held at his home at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning.  Interment at 
Burnside.
