ANDREWS SENTENCED.--It having
been understood that the death sen-
tence would be passed on Andrews on
Saturday morning, the court room was
| filled with a crowd drawn there by cu-
riosity to witnegs a scene that would have
so much of the tragic in its nature.
But they were misinformed as to the
time fixed forthe murderer to hear
his doom; as the Court's attention during
the details of a dry equity case, and in
consequence. the disappointed crowd dis-
persed, it being: understood, however,
that sentence would be passed in the
afternoon. Accordingly upon the ring-
ing of the bell at 1.30 the room was
again filled by the curious crowd, and
the prisoner was brought in by the
Sheriff. He appeared cool and uncon=
cerned and smiled while the sentence
was being passed, The following = were
{he words address by Judge Furst to
the wretched culprit : !
Alfred Andrews, stand up. Have you
should not be passed upon you, accord-
ing to law 2 “No, sir.”
‘Whereupon the Judge continued :
Tt is seldom and hitherto unknown in
this court that onejso young -as you has
committed a crime so revolting in all its
details. Lying in wait for your victim
heart, without a moment’s warning you
made your assault, and to cover your
shame you added to your attempt at
rape the foul crime of murder. No
wonder that this community stood
aghast at your crime |, It isnot surpris-
ing that the officers of the law were vig-
ilant in seeking you out and bringing
you here to answer for that crime. Tt
is sad indeed to think of the crime you
have committed. Without mercy or
pity you made a criminal assault upon
Clara Price and, failing in your brutal
attempt, you took her life to suppress
the evidence of your guilt.
She was a beautiful young lady, just
ripening into womanhood—pure and
virtuous—and happy in the prospects of
life before her. Alone and unprotect-
ed 'in a lonely place, you made your
assault upon her. She sacrificed her
young life to save her, virtue. Her no-,
ble effort to protect her hemor and puri-
ty ought to be written in granite above
her grave. The law in mercy hitherto
has extended to you every means to
make your defense. It has thrown
around you the presumption of inno-
cence. It has given you a jury of your
own selection ; it has required the com-
mon wealth to prove ‘your guilt beyond
a reasonable doubt. You have had the
benefit of able counsel and the process
of the law to. compel the attendance of
your witnesses.
The county has furnished means for
your defense. You have had a patient,
fair and impartial trial before a jury of
your peers. The ‘jury has’ found you
guilty of murder in the first degree.
No other verdict could justly have been
rendered under the evidence. The truth
of the verdict has been made manifest
by your own confession since: The lan-
guage of the law has been changed. It
now demands that satisfaction shall be
done. You have forfeited your life to
the law. Justice requires that the for-
restore the innocent life you have taken,
the law requires that society shall be
protected from the assassin and murder-
er, and that your ignominious death up-
culiar physical condition, He appears to
bein good health but hasso little use of
his limbs as to be unable to walk. He
has been confined to his room continual-
ly for seven months.

——Andrews, the red-handed mur-
derer of Clara Price, is said to be desir-
ous of selling his confession, giving the
details of the bloody deed, to the news-
paper that will give the highest price
“for the revolting narrative. Asan ad-
ditional inducement he will throw into
the bargain the pistol with which he
committed the deed, the hiding place of
which he will reveal. He appears to be
a murderer with a thrifty disposition.

verdict by an appeal tS any earthly

trial without .pronouncing your guilt.
There is no appeal left for you but to
your God. To Him and Him alone
may your appeal for mercy be made.
That mercy which you denied your
helpless victim may yet, through sin-
cere repentance and faith in Christ, be
accorded to you. ;
We earnestly commend you to a mer-
ciful God, who, in His infinite love,
granted pardon to the thief on the cross,
and whois able to save the penitent
however wicked he may have been. We
have no desire to review the facts in
connection with your crime. ‘It now
only remains to pronounce the sentence
according to law.
The sentence of the law is that you,
Alfred Andrews, the prisoner at the bar,
be taken hence. to the jail of Centre
county, whence you came, and from
thence to the place of execution desig-
nated by law, and that you there te
hanged by the neck until you are dead.

" BELLEFONTE, Pa, Feb. 5, 1890.
FRIEND BILLIE :—Your letter re-
ceived to-night and it finds me in the
best of health, Billie, it would be a joy-
ful meeting for us both if we could get
together as we have done before, but, it
can’t be, and solet it be. I am altogeth-
era different man ; T'have found peace
and hope for my soul ; I have looked for
pardon from a higher place than this
earth and I found it, and’ I am recon-
man for I have nothing more, to live for.
All my hopes wera blighted over a year
ago, and it is needless to mention names.
Billie I do hope you can get the chance
to come and see me before the 20th, for
I would like to see you and have a talk
over old times. Of course I dome an
awful crime, but I was drove to it; but,
nevertheless, I wasn’t justified in kill-
ing either of them; that is where I
made the sad mistake ; you know all the
rest and for that reason I don’t care to
live; I perfer to die and then I will be
out of my troubles. My cesket came to-
day and I will soon see it and get in it
and be put to rest.. The county don’t’
bury me, my brother pays all. I will
be taken home to be buried alongside of
my father, brothers and sisters. Billie
I hope from the bottom of my heart
that you and yours will prosper and
that you may live happy and con-
tent; don’t fall into the snare I did.
Andrews takes it very easy and heis
the right man ; he confessed to me last
night; he and I have the same cell.
He hastold me all; it is frightful. T
can’t see how he done it, but hedid.
You will read his and my statement
after T am gone. We are both unfor-
tunate men, but we will die game. My
eyesight is failing me day by day. Itis
the close confinement that is the cause
of it. I have to guess half what I
write as T can’tsee the lines. * Give my
got a letter from me, and tell them how
I feel ; tell them I am prepared to die.
I will close with my love to you and
your family. From your unfortunate
friend. Write soon. Fw

DECEIVED ABOUT A Horse. —A
month or more ago, says the Lock Hav-
en Democrat, an individual made his ap-
pearance in that city, who said his
name was Reynolds, and who claimed
that he was the agent of Bennet & Son,
stock dealers and importers, of Topeka,
Kansas. Reynolds had with him a very
4ne horse, stallion, which he stated was
of the Clydesdale breed, imported irom:
Scotland and ‘worth $3,000, which he
wanted to sell. As the the price of, the
animal was much above the ready pock-
et-money of the farmers in the valley,
or of the generality of the people her,
Reynolds succeeded in forming a stock
company, putting the-shares at $100
each. He took their notes at one; two
and three years, and this way succeeded |
in disposing of this very valuable piece
of horseflesh. An arrangement was
made that he was to meet the stockhold-
ors sometime in the latter part of Jan-
uary and deliver the pedigree of the
animal, with a guarantee that the horse
was exactly what had been represented.
The day before the time set for this meet-
ing, however, Reynolds disappeared and
has failed to show ap since. And, to
complicate the matter, a person repre-
senting himself as the real egent of
Bennett & Son has come upon the car-
pet and he says that the said firm has no
such a man as Reynolds. in their em-
ploy. The interesting question which
the stock company are now considering
is whether the aforsaid animalis an im-
ported Clydesdale worth $3,000, or
whether it is merely a Sugar Valley
warhorse worth anywhere from $76 to
$150. Further deponent saith not.
At the instance of their attorney,
W. I. Swoope, Esq., a writ of habeas
corpus has been. granted Mrs. Fietta

STATEMENTS AS TO THE CIRCUM-
sTANCEs.— Last Friday ' morning. aot at Zellwood, Orange county, Florida, ¥.
ews reached this place that another
homicide had been committed within He was buried at Philipsburg on Thurs /
the limits of this county, the scene being y
on the western border, in the region
where the Clara Price tragedy occurred.
‘This time ‘the encounter was between
two young men, one.of whom was cut
almost to pieces by a knife in the hand
of the other.» It appears that a fued had
existed between John Veidheofer, a
young man living in the German settle-
ment near the Moshannon, and John
Force, residing at Pine Glenn. The
place where the tragedy happened was
about half a mile trom Moshannon' on
the road to Karthaus.
‘had been to’ Moshannon on Thursday
evening to attend a prayer meeting,
but there being no meeting that evening |
a party of nine, consisting of three girls
and six young men, among whom were
two Veidheofer boys, two TFye boys,
Allan Kelly and John Force, started
on their way home. In going along
an altercation sprung up between John
Veidheofer and Force, which soon re-
sulted in blows. One version of the af-
fair puts the blame on the former, alleg-
ing that he started the quarrel. After
the fighting gbegan “|Force- knocked
Veidheofer down twice, when the lat-
ter drew a knife with a blade about
four inches long and stabbed at his
antagonist’s throat. It was a vicious |
‘it, it would have come near cutting his
head off, but as it was it made a semi-
circular cut on the shoulder, severing
the muscles to the extent that Force's
head fell to one side.. Notwithstanding
this severe injury the latter knocked his
assailant down again, but upon regain-
ing’ his feet Veidheofer made another |
nent below the ribs on the left side, and
to the left lung. Force exclaimed, “]
am badly stabbed,” and sank to the
ground. Veidheofer then started for
his home.
The above is thestatement as given by
the friends of the injured man.
Veidheofer, when arrested, claimed
that he acted in self defense. Those who
attempt to excuse his action, say that
Force was the attacking party; that
he had gone on ahead of Veidheofer on
their way home from church,and with a
couple of friends waited at the place where
the difficulty occurred, until Veidheofer
came up, when he pounced onto him,
knocking him down and beating Him
while he lay helpless. After Veidheo-
fer got up he struck him again, knock-
ing him down the second time, and con-
tinued to punish him. After getting
up the second time Veidheofer drew his
knife, as he says, to protect himself, and
on Force's coming towards him to con-
tinue the fight, he used it to trighten
‘When lodged in jail the ‘prisoner did
not know how badly he had injured
his antagonist. , ns
~The wounded young man was carried
to the house of Harry Wagner and a doc-
tor was sent for. Upon an examination
it was discovered that the left lung was
cut nearly in two, the wound being of
such a character that.at every respiration
the air issued from the gash in the side.
A warrant for the arrest of Veidheofer
was immediately sworn out before Esg. |
J. C. Smith, of Snow ‘Shoe, and served
the same night by constable James
Haynes, who arrested the offender while
in bed. He was taken to Snow Shoe
and from there conveyed to the Belle-
fonte jail in which he was lodged on
Friday morning to answer at Court for
his bloody offense. Both of these young
men are farmers sons, about twenty
years of age, Veidheofer being the son
of George Veidheofer who resides at
the German . settlement, and Jefferson
Force, living about a mile from Pine
Glenn, is Force’s father.
Just. previous to going to’ press we
learned by telephone that Force's condi
tion is very much improved, with en-
couraging prospects of his recovery.
Tt has been announced that our
County Commissioners had made ar-
