HaBeas Corpus IN THE WEAVER |
MURDER CASE.—On the 28th of Jan-
uary ult. Fietta Weaver, Susan Auman
and Jonas Auman were lodged in jail
at this place on the charge of complicity
in the killing of Andrew Weaver, sr.
which occurred in Penns Valley, near
Coburn, Fietia being held as the prin-
cipal in the offense. Last Friday morn-
ing there were proceedings in the Court
Ho use on a writ of habeas corpus to de-
termine the extent of the guilt of the
accused, and whether there was suffi-
cient evidence to hold them for trial.
'W. I Swoope and W. I. Singer, Esqrs.
appeared for the defendants, and the
Commonwealth was represented by Dis-
trict Attorney Meyer, who has become
quite an expert in murder trials and had
in attendance an array of witnesses
whose testimony was intended to estab-
lished ground foranother trial of that
kind.
The first witnes: was John Mullen, a
boy of about 13, who is a son of the ac-
cused Fietta Weaver. His testimony
was in Pennsylvania German and was
interpretted by Recorder Harter, which
amounted to nothing more than that he
had been in the house when the difficul-
ty which led to the killing of old man
‘Weaver began, and saw three butch-
er knives, which he described. Before
school he had taken bags to the mill and
when he returned- he saw Andrew
‘Weaver,sr., lying on the porch. He
came back about 10 o'clock.
Jonas Auman testified that he lived
with Susan Auman, his mother, and
Fietta Weaver was his sister. He lived
in the mountains in Penn township
about a mile from the railroad. On the
morning when the old man was killed
he saw him last between 7 and 8 o’clock.
‘When he was currying his horse about
10 o’clock he heard that the old man
was killed, and when he ran down to
Fietta’s he found the old man lying dead
on the porch. Fielta was in the house
and told him’that the old man had kill-
ed himself. He felt his pulse and found
he was dead. Fietta was the only one
near. He then went for Squire Gart-
hoff.
The testimony of Noah Lingle was
to the effect that on the morning of the
death of Andrew Weaver he went to
John Confer’s for lime and on his way
home about 11 o’clock he went past
‘Weaver's and saw Fietta and the old
man throw stones at each other. She
commenced it and then he also threw
them. She went into the house and up-
on coming out again threatened that
she would kill him. Susan and Jonas
Auman then went into their house and
Fietta and the old man went into Fiet-
ta’s house, He heard some one call or
shout in the house; could not tell who
it was, but said it sounded like Fietta’s
voice.
Mrs. Jacob Shaffer testified that she
lived with Jonas Auman; was there
about a week before the killing of the
old man; old mother Auman told me
that Andrew was killed ; said he was
bleeding to death ; went down to Fiet-
ta’s and saw him lying on the right
side of the porch; more than once she
had heard Fietta say that she would
cripple the old man.
Elmer Hoover swore that he found
Andrew Weaver’s hat under the bridge;
it was a black hat and thers was blood
on it.
J. C. Stover, {who lives along Penn's
creek, in Penn township, testified that
he learned of the killing ;about 9.35 a.
m., and went over at once. When he
got there Jonas was outside: the house
and Susan inside sweeping the floor.
Andrew was lying on his face on the
porch. Upon asking Fietta what the
difficulty was, she said “He came to the
door and threatened to kill me and then
fell down dead, and that is all I know
about it, so help me.” There were
marks ot blood in a circle on the door,
mostly above the latch, and looked as if
it had been spattered on the door when
it was open, as it was on the boxing
around the door. When Fietta was
asked how the blood came there she
said it was caused by her cut finger.
A knife which witness identified in
court, was lying inside his open vest;
it was not touching the wourd which
could not have been made by it.
J. F. Guarthoff, justice of the peace at
Coburn, sworn—He said that Weaver
lay on his face with one foot on the
porch; ‘there was a cut throug his cloth-
ingunderhis leftarm. The first hearing
was before him and at that time Susan
and Jonas testified that the old man
come to Hietta’s house and demanded
some of his property which she had, say-
ing that he would have it if he had to
fight for it. Soon afterwards the stone
throwing began; the old man got hold
of Fietta and threw her down. Fietta's
statement was that the old man fell and
she did not know he was dead until she
was arrested.
The testimony of Dr. KE. 8. Frank was
that he assisted Dr. C. 8. Musser in the
post mortem examination and found the
wound about an inch in width, between
the 5th and 6th ribs under the arm and
penetrating the heart; it was made by
a large knife and would produce instant
death. . .
Several other witnesses whose testi-
mony was unimportant, were examined.
Upon hearing the evidence produced,
the Court discharged Susan Auman;
"held Jonas in $500 recognizance to ap-
| pear at next term of court to testify in
| the case, and remanded Fietta to jail in |
default of her giving $6000 bail for her
appearance at Court for trial.

lasted most of the week, the jury in the
trial of Charles Brown for the murder of
William Lovett, at Tock Haven,
I brought 1n a verdict of murder in the
second degree last Saturday evening.

pose is to locate in that new country

their venture will be attended with
abundant success.

the interest they took in the annual en-
tertainment and restaurant held Feb. 22,
to raise money for the relief fund of the
Post; also to the citizens of Bellefonte
and vicinity for their very liberal con-
tributions and patronage to the restau-
rant. At the same time a special vote
of thanks was extended to Mrs. Sarah
Young and Miss Anna Green for two
very handsome table covers presented to
the Post, suitably worked by hand with
the different emblems of the G A. R.
Tae CHANGE AT THE Busu Housk.—
After a proprietorship of the Bush
House extending through a period of
about eight years, Col. W. R. TELLER
retired from that celebrated public house
at 10 o’clock last Saturday night, hand-
ing it over to the new proprietors,
Messrs. Daggett & Elliott. Many
friends dropped in during the course
of the evening to give the Colonel
“good-by’” in his capacity of landlord,
and to welcome him back to the ranks
of private life; and also to give the new
landlords a greeting in their new posi-
tion.
The Bush House under the Teller ad-
ministration entered upon a career of
prosperity with which it had been unac-
quainted previous to the Colonel taking
charge of it. Before his advent it had
many landlords, who followed each oth-
er in quick succession without much
profit to any particular one of them.
It was a good stand and had about it
the possibilities of a paying house, but
the frequency with which it changed
hands was evidence that it had not prov-
ed a bonanza to any of them. It was
under such circumstances that Col. Tel-
ler took hold of it some eight years ago,
coming to it from the Brockerhoff House,
and that he was right man in the right
place was indicated by the success he
met with from the start.
The Bush House had a varied reputa-
tion before he tock it, but under him it
secured an established reputation at-
tended with profitable receipts. This
success was not attained without close at-
tention to business, under which the
Colonels health failed, rendering it ad-
visable for him to retire. The many
friends he has made rejoice that he is
able to leave the house he has put on
such good footing with ample pecuniary
reward for his years of efficient service
to the public. He has moved with his
family into the large stone residence on
High street, formerly occupied by the
late ex- Judge Irvin. It is to theadvan-
tage of Bellefonte that Col. Teller and
his estimable wife, who came here orig-
inally from Richmond, Va., have de-
termined to remain as residents of our
town, he having connected himself
with one of the ore mining companies
of this neighborhood. Having retired
from the business in which be was so
conspicuously successful, he requests the
tender of his thanks to the public which
so liberally patronized his house, and to
the citizens of Bellefonte trom whom he
received so many evidences of good will
and friendly regard. In this connec-
tion it is proper to speak of the elerk of
the Bush House Mr. Harry Fenlon, who
retires with its late proprietor. In
every requisite qualification for the po-
sition he so acceptably filled,he had few.
equals and no superiors, and much of
the popularity of the house was due to
his affable manners and gentlemanly
treatment of its guests.
The new proprietors of the Bush
House, Messrs. Daggett & Elliott, come
to our town from Tioga county well
recommended as possessing the qualifica-
tions that are required to make success
ful landlords. Tt is the general opin-
ion of those who have become ac-
quainted with them that they will
maintain the reputation of the house
which Col. Tellér has made famous.
— The Methodists are belding a
series of meetings at their church in
Milesburg.
ELITE
A MONUMENT TO CLARA PRICE.—
The suggestion to erect a monument to
Clara Price, the victim of Andrews’
murderous lust, has already been made
in these columns, as a proper tribute to
her undefiled memory. The people of
the neighborhood in which she resided,
and where she was stricken down in de-
fence of her virtae, are taking steps for
this purpose, which may almost be con-
sidered hallowed, and to which the good
people of this county will consider it a
privilege to contribute. On this subject a
resident of Karthaus writes as follows
to the Clearfield Republican :
‘We have undertaken to raise money
to erect a monument over the grave of
Clara Price (the young girl murdered
by Alfred Andrews) to commemorate
her heroic defence of her virtue. We
still lack sufficient funds to carry out
this project properly. Should the good
people of Clearfield county not contrib_
ute something to this worthy cause?
Judge Furst said, before sentencing An-
drews: “Alone and unprotected in a
lonely place, you made your assault up-
on her. She sacrificed her young life to
save her virtue, Her noble effort to pro-
tect her honor and purity ought to be
written in granite above her grave.”
She died, not because she had to, but be-
cause shechose to. Had she yielded to
his hellish purpose she might yet live.
But, hard as her fate was, Clara chose
the better part, Nonobleract canbe com-
memorated by us than the heroic mar-
tyrdom cf this young girl for her honor.
A dollar given for this purpose will be
to a holy and just cause and one that we
can never regret. While human and
Divine justice has swiftly overtaken this
wicked wretch, who now only awaits
the execution of the law,let us finish
this bloody drama. by erecting a suitable
monument to her honor. Will not
some one take a little time going around
and collect what they ‘canand transmit
it to any one of the following com-
mittee: B. I. Gilliland, Pottersdale,Pa.,
or J. A. Heckendorn or Wm. B. Potter,
Karthaus, Pa., who will duly acknowl-
edge the same.
[Any contributions for this purpose
sent to the WATCHMAN will be prom pt-
ly acknowledged and duly sent to the
above parties. ]
Tue OLp AND THE NEW BorouH
CounciLs.—Last Monday morning was
an important one to the borough coun-
cil, forit marked the termination of the
old council and ushered in the official
life of the new one. At 9 o’clock order
was called by President Frank Stover,
every member being present except Ed-
ward Brown, jr. The first business in
order was the swearing in of ‘the new
members elected at the last election, they
being Isaac Longacre, North ‘Ward 3
‘W. H. Chrissman, West Ward; Wm.
Jamison, South Ward. The retiring
members were Frank B. Stover, Robert
Cole and Ed Brown, jr., of the same
wards respectively. At the request of
J. W. Gephart, Esq., taxes were exoner-
ated on the building occupied by the Y.
M. C. A. Séveral other exonerations
were granted. Bills amounting to $3,-
504.81 were approved.
In the election of President of the new
council Geo. L. Potter was put in nom-
ination by the Republicans, and Samuel
Gault, who is a Republican member,
was nominated by the Democrats. The
result was the election of Gault. Isaac
Mitchell was elected clerk without op-
position; Clement Dale, esq., Was elect-
ed borough solicitor, R. Hamill Boal
civil engineer, and Samuel Rine super-
intendent of the borough water depart-
ment. For street commissioner John
Klinger was nominated by the Repub-
licans, and James Dolan by the Demo-
crats.” The vote stood four to four, the
President not voting, and the balloting
was adjourned to be concluded in the
evening... Upon. reassembling at 7 p
m. the nams of Charles Gehrett was sub-
stituted for that of James Dolan as the
Democrat nomines for street commis-
sioner, and after several ineffectual
ballots Gehrett was elected by the cast-
ing vote of the President. The council
then decided to pay the street commis-
sioner by the day, at the rate of $1.50
per day from the Ist of April to the 1st
of October, and $1.25 per day for the
balance ot the year.
The following committees were up-
pointed: Finance—FPotter, Baner and

The request of Mr. Daniel Garman
was presented to release for ten. years the
borough license fee for entertainments
to be held in the new opera house he in-
tends to erect, and the Finance Com- |
mittee were directed to draw an ordin- |
ance, to be reported at the next meeting,

New Opera House.—Mr. Daniel
Garman has given out the contract for
the building of an opera house to be
located on the vacant ground in the
rear of the new part of his hotel. It
will be the largest and most completely
equipped theatrical building in this
part of the state, and is intended to be
completed by the 1st of next August.
Ea VE LR EN TT SET
MAarcH FACTORY BuryEeD.-Thursday
night of last week, between eleven and
twelve o'clock, fire was discovered in the
Grant Match factory at Philipsburg,
and although the fire companies were
speedily on the ground and every effort
was made to extinguish the flames, yet
on account of the inflammable character
of the material, the efforts were unvaile
ing, and the building was consumed.
The fire originated in the engine room.
The night watchman, named Epheart,
was asleep in the building at the time
and barely managed to escape when the
building was about balf consuméd. The
total loss will foot up $40,000 on which
there was no insurance. Members of the
firm who had their all invested in this
enterprise are heavy losers. The fac-
tory gave employment to about fifty
persons—most of them boys and girls
between the ages of 10 and 20 years. It
is hardly likely that the factory will be
rebuilt.

10th until April 1stI will make Cabi-
net Photos at one dollar per dozen,

offer as I am going to close business in

chance. Don’t delay coming, as the time
