AxorHer HorriBLE Murper. —A
Youn GIRL OUTRAGED AND SHOT
Dowy ox aE PuBLic Roap.—On Wed-
nesday morning last while a jury of the
county were listening to the details of
the double murder at Philipsburg, our
people were startled by the report that
another most brutal and revolting mur-
der had been perpetrated about a mile
this side of the river on the public road
leading from Snow Shoe to Karthaus.
The victim was Miss Clara Price, a girl
about eighteen years of age, and daugh-
ter of David Price, who keeps a liv-
ery at Karthaus. Miss Price has
during the absence of her husband,
who is in the woods lumbering. Their
residence is about three or four miles
from Karthaus on thisside of the river
and is about the last house one passes
after leaving the Mulholland property
at Pine Glenn, until he reaches the
bridge at Karthaus. The road at best is
a lonesome one, there being no improve-
ments of any kind along the last three
miles towards the river, and since the
destruction of the bridge by the June
flood,which has prevented teams from
crossing from one county to the other,
there is but little travel along it; and it
has become more lonely and desolate
than ever.
On Wednesday morning Miss Price
started for Karthaus, for the double pur-
pose of visiting her parents, and to dis-
pose of some marketing for Mrs. Meek-
er. About ten o'clock ofthe same day
Wm. Oswalt discovered her body ly-
holes in it, one in her head, one in her
neck and cue in her breast, another
through the market basket she carried.
All around were evidences of a terrible
strnggle, and an examination by the
physicians disclosed the horrible fact
that the fiend had committed a brutal
outrage upon her and t ocover his crime
had murdered her.
found was lying face downward with
one arm outstretched, as if the
poor girl had been fleeing from the
wretch after the assault was committed
and was shot while trying to escape
further outrage.
Lhe man who is supposed to have
committed the foul crime, and who
made good his escape, is by one report
said to be about five feet six inches in
height, weighs about 140 pounds ; had
a short stubby black mustache, wore a
hight suit of clothes, black derby hat,
and is about 30 years of age . Another
report says that a tall slim man, wear-
ing a light suit of clothes and black
derby hat, was seen coming in the di-
rection of Pine Glenn from Karthaus
the morning of the murder, and is sup-
posed to be the murderer.
Up to this time, forty-eight hours af-
ter the commission of this most hideous-
crime, no reward has been offered by
the county commissioners, nor have tha
authorities of the county made any move
to capture the wretch who committed it.
OverGrowN Carnves.—The Jersey
Shore Herald state that two young
men by the names of Stabley and Win-
chester, drove through Nippenose Val-
ley on Saturday last, and showed them-
selves by driving unmercifully and
drawing a revolver on passing strangers,
They represented themselves as cow
boys, but 1t was afterwards learned
that they were nothing but overgrown
calves. Calves of that kind should be
stabled in the county jail.
——We are requested to state tha
next Sabbath morning and evening the
services in the Reformed Church here
will be conducted by Rev. T. J. Hack-
er of Shamokin. He will also preach
at Zion in the aternoon. A full attend-
ance of the membership and others is
desired as he is highly recommended as
an excellent preacher.
——A very pleasant surprise party
was given to Miss Mollie Powers, at her
home on Alleghany street, on Thursday
evening of last week. All who par-
ticipated are said to have spent a most
enjoyable evening, and the fair young
lady in whose honor the party was
given was the recipient of a number of
very handsome presents.

Tae Lime INDUSTRY OF BELLE-
FONTE AND NEIGHBoRH00D.—This lo-
cality has been chiefly noted for its
iron production which has been famous
since the beginning of the century.
The ores of the county have been prom-
inent among the mineral resources of
the State. But they would have been
of less importance than they have been
had it not been for their close connec-
tion with large deposits of limestone of
the best quality. This mineral product of
our county, of vast extent, is of incalcu-
lable value, and although it has not at-
tained the notoriety of our ores, it is
every year enlarging in the extent of
production and adding to the business
and wealth of this community.
Centre county south of Muncy moun-
tain is prodigally supplied with lime-
stone, which accounts for the great na-
tural fertility of thatsection. An excel-
| lent quality of this stone is found in
| very heavy strata along the. foot of the
Muncy mountain extending entirely
“across the county. But nowhere does
| this deposit appear in greater mass, of
| better quality, or in more advantageous
| shape for operating, than right here in
| Bellefonte, as is shown by the testimony
: of the high cliffs, of almost pure carbon-
‘ate of lime, exposed in the quarries on
either side of Spring creck, almost with-
in the borough limits. Although the
, dimensions of the quarries show that
| much has been done in supplying the
| great demand for this commodity, yet
|it may be said that our calcareous cliffs
i have scarcely been more than scratched.
It is our purpose to speak of the de-
velopment of our lime industry which
in time will rank in importance next to
jour iron production. To Mr. William
| Shortlidge may justly be ascribed the
| credit of being the pioneer in the Centre
| county lime business as now carried on.
| For years before his time our native
| limestone was used asa flux in the nu-
| merous charcoal furnaces of the region,
‘and considerable was burned for local
agricultural purposes, but he was the
| first man to make our lime an article of
commercial value by exporting it be-
yond the limits of the county. When
a young man, serving as book-keeper at
the Valentine iron works, his attention
was attracted to the limestone deposits
of the neighborhood and the possibility
of great development which they pre-
sented. In conversation with Professor
Pugh of the State College, one of the
most accomplished geologists of the age,
he obtained an idea of the high quality
of the limestone deposits along the foot
of Muncy mountain, to which range the
strata in this immediate vicinity belong.
There was an old lime kiln at the
Valentine works, built to supply the io-
cal demand, which Mr. Shortlidge got
hoid of and ran as a preliminary to
larger operations that were to come af-
terwards. This was about the year
1861 and gave him his first experienee
in the lime business, he still continuing
his position of book-keeper at the iron
works. In 1862 he bought from Mec-
Coy and Linn the limestone ledge on
the east side of the creek and built a
kiln where the Morris kilns are now lo-
cated. It was one of the old style kilns
in which the fuel and the stone were
burned together. He subsequently
constructed a kiln on theimproved prin-
ciple of burning the stone by a flame
generated in an apartmentseparate from
the stone, using coal and wood for this
purpose. This is the method used at
all the improved lime burning plants,
the product being of a better quality
than that produced by the old style
kilns. Mr. Shortlidge continued this
operation for a number of years, ship-
ping considesable lime, and also lime-
stone for fluxing purposes. In 1878 he
sold out to Mr. A. G. Morris, of Tyrone.
He resumed business in 1880 with the
Alexanders in the quarries west of the
creek, directly opposite to his former
operations and on the same stratum of
high grade stone. He continued in this
connection until 1884. Going into
partnership in 1885 with Mr. Robert
MecCalmont, they bought out the inter-
est of Hon. Cyrus Alexander in the
property, Mr. James R. Alexander own-
ing the other half of the land, and they
now have in operation three flame
kilns of the largest size, which have a
capacity of abort 600 bushels a day, and
there daily shipments amount to about
130 tens of lime and stone. The fuel
used in burning is bituminous coal, and
from 1000 to 1200 cords of wood a year.
Their limeis sent all over the country,
much of it going to New York, Massa-
chusetts and Delaware for chemical and
manufacturing purposes. In fact most
of their limeis used by tanners, acid
works and paper mills, its chemical
qualities adapting it in a pre-eminent
degree to uses of this kind. Among
their leading customers are two paper
milis in New York State. For paper
manufacturing the Bellefonte lime
stands at the head of the list as it gives
| a peculiar golden tint to straw board
and paper, and in the manufacture of
wood pulpit is without a rival. Tt is
also superior in glass manufacture, in
the refining of gas, in the making of
| acetate of lime, for tanner’s use, and for
the uses of the salt manufacturer.
Itis easy to see from this why there is
such a large and wide demand for th
“production of MeCalmont & Co's kilns.
|
|
|
They also ship limestone, principally
west of the mountains, where it is in de-
man! for flux in the furnaces and steel
works in the western part of the State.
For this use Centre county lime stone
is not surpassed by any in the world, as
its properties enable ore to be smelted
with a less amount of fuel. There can
be no question that this was one of the
reasons why the production of iron has
always been so successful in this county.

Co. is of mammoth proportions. It pre-

Since then Mr. Mor-
ris has largely increased his works. At
that location he has four large flame
kilns which turn out large quantities of
lime which like that of McCalmont &
Co’s. 1s in demand for chemical and
manufacturing uses. He supplies the
pulp works at Tyrone and Lock Ha-
ven and also furnishes a very large
quantity to the salt works at Latrona.
Much of his limestone is shipped for the
use cf furnaces and steel works at a dis
tance. He recently bought land from
James Henderson a short distance up
Buffalo Run where an extensive quarry
has been opened and kilns built. Here
large quantities of stone are being pre-
pared to be used for flux in glass works.
Within the past year Mr. Morris has
made a great addition to his lime opera-
tions by purchasing part of the Ar-
mor farm through which runs the same
stratum of high grade stone that is being
worked by him and McCalmont & Co.,
further west. The Bald Eagle Valley
Railroad Company is running a branch
road of about three quarters of a mile
in length to accommodate this new
opening whose product will greatly ex-
tend the lime industry of this neighbor-
hood.
In addition to the limestone required
by the operations of the two parties above
mentioned great quantities are quarried
and used by the furnace companies cf
{ this neighborhood. This is obtained
l from land owned by them, located con-
tiguous to their works. The Collinses, in
addition to supplying their furnace,
send off much of their refuse stone pre-
pared for ballast for the Pennsylvania
railroad company. Withall these oper-
ations many men are necessarily employ-
ed in the quarries and at the kilns. The
ears of our population have become
accustomed to the sound of the heavy
blasts which like morning and evening
guns reverberate among our mountains.
By a bountiful provision of nature the
ore deposits of our county have been
supplemented with limestone of an
equally good quality, furnishing the
raw material for future industrial opera-
tions of vast extent and incalculable
value.

Court PROCEEDINGS—NOVEMBER
TerM.—The attendance at Court this
week was more than usually large in
consequence of many attending in con-
nection with the Hopkins murder trial.
But few criminal cases were tried pre-
vious to taking up the great cass of the
week. A petition to transfer the license
of the Potter House at Philipsburg was
granted. Also the petition of citizens
of Howard for the review of a certain
road, with Jerome Bell, Henry Tibbins
and George Holmes appointed as view-
ers. Charters were granted for the
Pleasant Gap Cemetery and for the
Evangelical Association of Bellefonte.
Captain Quigley, of Blanchard, was
sworn in as foreman of the Grand Jury.
In the ease of Commonwealth vs.
David H. Rhule, charged with selling
liquor illegally, District Attorney Meyer
stated that no evidence could be found
that Mr. Rhule had violated the license
law, consequently proceedings were dis-
continued and a nol. pros. entered.
Com. vs. Annie Kriner.—This was
the case of the girl who was arrested
some weeks ago for infanticide said to
have been eommitted in the neighbor-
hood of Bellefonte, the particulars of
which were published in the WarcH-
MAN. The jury ignored the bill.
Com. vs. J. Snavely, Trespass. —This
case which the judge said was too small
to have been brought into court was
disposed of by his fining Snavely $5
and the costs.

Morgan’s Staff, he was released on
parole, and exchanged in April, 1863.
He was promoted to be 2nd Lieut.
of Co. K. 9th Pa.
26th, 1864, and was mustered out of
1865, after having participated inthirty-
three engagements.
Ater the war he was engaged with his
uncle, Wm. A. Thomas, in mining ore,
and after the death of his uncle he enter-
ed the firm of Jacob V. Thomas & Co.
in the manufacture of window glass.
About sixteen years ago he went to
Middletown, N. J., and engaged in
the mercantile business, and married,
some seven years ago, Miss Caroline
‘Walton, of Birgne’s Point, N. J. At
Middletown he succeeded in endéaring
himself to the people by his genial
manners, and established an excellent
business reputation by his industry,
honesty and perseverance. Born a
member of Friends meeting, he sub-
sequently connected himself with the
Dutch Reformed Church. His position
on all moral and religious questions was
very decided, and his convictions on the
subject of temperance were so strong that
he leased the only licensed Louse in Mid-
dletown and released itas a temperance
hotel at a pecuniary loss to himself.
Ir all his characteristics he was a noble
specimen of a man.
One would scarcely believe that
a hunter, who would take the time and
zo to the expense required to travel
from Philipsburz this county to the most
distant point in the State of Maine for
the sole purpose of hunting moose,
would become so excited when he saw
one that he would pepper it with bird
shot, and forget to use his rifle barrel
until the big animal was clear: out of
sight. And yet, this is just what Mr.
Henry Matley did. We don’t suppose
he'll thank us for telling, but it’s too
good to keep. Ife and Mr. Elsworth
Matley, accompanied by a Mr.MecBain
of Boston, were away up at Hurricane
pond, after moose. They may bethere
yet for what we know. A day orso af
ter getting the camp fixed, Mr. How-
ard Matley started out to look tor game.
He carried a three barreled gun two
shot barrels and one rifle barrel.
He had gone but a short distance when
he encountered a fine bullmoose, with
an enormous spread of horns. Forget-
ing all about his rifle barrel, he pour-
ed into the thick hide of the bull both
charges ot bird shot, and never thought
of the load he had in the remaining
barrel, intended for just such game, un-
til the animal was safely hid among
the hills.
Our informant does not say in what
condition of mind Mr. Matley was in
when he returned to camp. That is
better imagined than described.
——The nimrodic art seems to be on
the decline in the eastern part of this
county judging from the following in
the Center Hall Reporter: The Modocs,
a party of hunters from Boalsburg and
vicinity, have for fifteen years taken a
week or more of a hunt for deer in the
Seven Mountains, and always returned
with several deer, but this year they
broke camp and went home without
anything, breaking their record. In
fifteen years they have killed eighty-
four deer and one bear. One of the
Modoes who was not along with them,
named Martz, on their hunt, last week
shot a deer at home near Boalsburg.
A private note from Dr. W. P.
Rothrock, of Winfield, Kansas, says
that Col. Robt Haynes, wife, and son
William, of Spow Shoe, our county,
are still with them injoying them-
selves finely shooting qu ils, prairie
chickens, rabbits and wolves, and that
for Thanksgiving, ¢they propose cap-
turing afew wild turkeys.” There are
certainly no persons in this world who
enjoy good shooting more than the
party named, and if all kinds of game
in Kansas are not scarce when Col.
Haynes and his folks are ready to re-
turn to Centre county, it willnotbeany
fault of theirs.

—Johnstown 77ribune says that Rev.
A. H. Jolly, of Alexandria, Huntingdon
county, was in that town for the pur-
pose of examining the remains supposed
to be those of Miss Mattie MeDivitt.
He reviewed the remains and felt sure of
the identity, and then got Dr. Hager to
examine the teeth, and he indentified
three of them as ones he was working
on at the time of the flood. Mr. Jolly
took the remains to Miss MeDivitt’s late
