An Excellent Woman Gone.
It has often been said that the King
of Shadows loves a shining mark and
this has been demonstrated when the
Death Angel called Mrs. John Tigner
of near Iouisville, there she answered
the call of her Lord on last Friday
when she had attained the age of 81
years, one montn anu eleven aays
Miss Sarah Josephine Campbell was
horn in Washington county, Penn.
on January 3tnn, ana resiueu
with her parents during her girlhood
then moving to Jefferson county
Ohio, where she was united in mar
riage with Mr. John D. Tigner on
March 14th, 1872. Slie with the hus
band came to make their home in
Nebraska in 1SS4. They resided for
many years in the vicinity of Union
and here acquired a large number of
very loyal friends. During the past
few years they have been making
their home near Louisville, where
they had lived with their eon, Jameg
Tigner. This union was blessed with
five children, they being Mrs. Jessie
Fitch of Union, Charles W. of Cul
bertson. Harry C. of Louisville, James
M. of Louisville and Claude C. of
Union, all of whom survive the
mother, whom they loved with a de
votion scarcely ever equaled and never
excelled. There are thirteen grand
children who love their grandmother
and two who have been called to the
other world, and there were waiting
to welcome the loved one. When
young girl. Mrs. Tigner gave her
heart to her Master and has ever
lived a devoted and consistent Chris
tian life. She--has made a practice
since girlhood to reaa tne ssnepara
Psalm, the 23rd in number every day
of her life, and this portion of the
scripture has ever guided her in the
path of right and been a solace to this
excellent woman when clouds arose in
her path to obscure the blue of the
sky. For some weeks before the final
summons came Mrs. Tigner had not
enjoyed the best of health, and the
husband and children have seen to it
that every comfort Lad been extend
ed to the loving mother. The funeral
service was held from the Baptist
church of Union ami was conducted
by the Rev. W. A. Taylor, the inter
ment being made at the Union cem
etery.
Card of Thanks
We. the husband and children of
the late Mrs. Sarah Josephine Tigner,
wish to express our sincere thanks for
the kindnesses which were extended
to our mother during her lifetime,
and especially during the late illness,
to all who in anyway ministered to
her comfort, to those who sang at
he funeral and for the many floral
tokens, evidences of their love and
honor of mother. John D. Tigner

Slight gains for laborers were
noted in meat packing plants and
railroad shops. There seemed to be
sufficient building in sight to absorb
all idle resident tradesmen as soon
as tne weatner conditions win per

plentiful, building is fairly active
but winter weather has retarded op
