DR. SHAFFER KILLED

Tyrone, April 19.—Dr. C. T. Shaffer, 38 years old, surgeon for the Berwind-
White Coal company, of Windber, Cambria county, was almost instantly killed two 
miles north of Tyrone last evening.  The physician, in company with, his 
brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. McMurray, of Altoona; his
brother, W. E. Shaffer; Richard Hall, of Windber, and R. S. McGraw, were
driving toward Tyrone from a visit to Philipsburg in a new car.  When near Vail 
station, Doctor Shaffer, who was driving, seemed to lose control of the car. He 
made an effort to skirt another car on the narrow road and in doing so, his 
machine ran into a deep ditch.  The car turned over three times.
