SHAFFNER.

  Miss Mildred Shaffner died yesterday morning at 9 o'clock at the 
Cottage hospital, Philipsburg, where she had undergone an operation.  
She was aged 35 years and a sister of Mrs. T. G. Herbert of this city.  
She was a school teacher at Curwensville but had been forced to give up 
her duties the past winter on account of ill health.  She went from 
here to the hospital for treatment.  Besides Mrs. Herbert, the 
following sisters and brothers survive: Mrs. Alice Shaffner of Kane, 
Mrs. William Cameron of Chicago, Mrs. Charlotte Wynn of Philipsburg, R. 
A. and John Shaffner of Pittsburgh and Perry and Homer Schaffner of 
Gary, Ind.  Her father, John B. Shaffner of Philadelphia, also 
survives.  The remains will likely be taken to Clearfield county for 
interment.
