——Mr. Parker, the conductor on
the Buffalo Run train which leaves
here at six o’clock in the morning says
that his train was crowded with gunners
on last Monday morning, it being the
beginning of the squirrel season. Most of
the fellows, who whispered their destin-

fear that other sportsmen on the train
might find out their hunting ground,
came home empty handed and report a
great scarcity of game.
——The Bellefonte Nail Works re-
gumed operation on Monday after an
idleness of almost mine weeks. Every
department except the puddiing mill

splendid appearance is the best of evi-
dence that the nautical life agrees with
him, and if the reports we hear about
his academic work are trae, Bellefonte rs
need not be surprised to hear him spo-
ken of some day, as one of the most ef- {
ficient officers in our navy.
ANOTHER MURDER!
HARRY WATERHOUSE SHOT DOWN
ON ONE OF BELLEFONTE'S
MOST PUBLIC THOR-
OUGHFARES.
’
The residents of North Thomas street
were startled, on Wednesday afternoon,
by the sharp report of a pistol and upon
investigation for its cause they found
the body ot Harry Waterhouse lying
along the walk leading to Coleville and
about half-way between the residence of
Mr. Crissman and Mr. Isaac Mitchell.
He was still breathing when found and
blood was seen to ooze, with each res-
piration, from a bullet hole 1n the neck,
just below the point commonly called
Adam’s apple. The shooting occurred
shortly before 3 o'clock and at exactly
twelve minutes of four the victim died.
AN EYE WITNESS TELLS HIS STORY.
John Rine, who had bees with the
murderer all afterncon and was with
him a moment before the shot was fired,
gives the following facts in substance:
We were going down to the show
grounds—E. O. Rogers’ show was exhi-
biting on the grounds down by the Glass
Works—and had just gotten about half-
way between Crissman’s and Mitchell's
when we met!Harry coming up from the
show. He and the man I was with re-
newed a quarrel which they had begun
in the morning, when, while drinking,
Hurry had indirectly accused him of be-
ing a fakir. They made several altempts
to strike each other and I not wanting
to see them fight caught the man by the
arms and threw him back against the
bank along the walk and then seeing
that he was trying to draw a revolver, 1
told Harry to git, but he said “let him
up.” Icould not hold the man any
longer and fearing lest he might shoot
me, which he threatened to do, I left go
and ran. What occurred afterwards
futher than the hearing of the shot I
couldinot sax. Robt. McKnight, who
saw the shot fired, says that he and
Frank Crostwhaite were going out to the
show together and passed the three men
passed them Mr. Crostwhaite said to him
“hold up, there going to ficht.” Bob
then turned round and just as he turned
he saw Harry's hat fly off but whether
it was knocked off or not be could not
tell. John Rine was then standing with
his back to Harry, holding the other
man,; whom he presently threw down.
After he had him down Harry made
several attempts to kick him, and Joha,
when he saw him pulling a pistol, left go
and ran. The man then got up and
eveling his revolver at Harry, taking
deliberate aim, fired. The vietim’s head
fell forward on his breast and the mur-
derer walked up to him and pushed him
over. When he saw the man fall he
started fon down towards the show
grounds, and presently began to run.
McKnight then ran for an officer and
the man was arrested just before he
reached the new houses recently erected
near the Collin’s furnace. When officer
Garis nabbed him he said. «What's
this for? What have I done.” Detec-
tive Mullen searched him and found a
large bulldog revolver in his pocket, but
ne had thrown another revolver, as well
as a bunting cased silver watch, away,
on the road. Both of these were found.
The officers brought their prisoner to
Jail, but he would not give his name and
nothing was found on his person by
which he can be identified. At first it
was thought that he was conrected with
the circus, but its manager positively as-
sured a WATCHMAN correspondent
that he had no connection whatever
with them. He was then said to be an
employee of the chain works, but Sup’
Jordon failed to recognize him as one of
his men. So nothing more is known of
him further than that he was seen on
the streets, in the morning, with his vic-
tim, with whom he had been drinking.
The murderer is a young man, appar-
ently about twenty-five years old, wear-
ing a light checked suit and a black
derby hat. He has a rather light com-
plexion and a sandy mustache.
His victim was a moulder by trade
and has worked about Bellefonte for the
last five or six years. His home is in
Manchester, Eng., where he is said to be
very well connected, but heing of a
roving: disposition he left it to. travel
over the country. He had the reputa-
tion of being a very quiet,harmless fellow
and was never known to harm any one.
His body was taken to the poor house,
where an examination showed that the
ball had taken a downward course and
lodged in the stomach and that the neck
was considerably burned by the powder
from the revolver, so close had it been
held when the fatal shot was fired.
Since the above was written we have
been enabled to find that the murderer is
John Wilson and that he claims to be a
painter from Braddock, Pa., but the
fuct that a bunch of skeleton keys and
a pair of light rubber slippers were found
on his person seems to mark him asa
professional crook. His revolvers were
of 38 and 42 calibre, the one an “Eng-
lish,” the other an “American bulldog.”
But one shot had been fired.
Overseer of the poor, Mr. Schofield,
gave the remains a respectable interment
in the Union cemetery on Thursday at
' four o'clock.

——Mr. Michael Faucey, an old vet- :
eran, died at his home in Pleasant Gap
on Monday night. The deceased was |
seventy-two years of age and a lifelong |
Methodist. ; :
——The Keystone Drum Corps will |
hold a grand ball in the armory on the |
night of Sept. 9th. Everyone should go |
and encourage this attempt to organize '
a good martial band in town.
The B. B. base ball club, of
Knox's school house, will hold a festival
on Saturday evening, Sept. 6th. Al
kinds of refreshments will be served and
the boys guarantee a good time to all
who will attend.
Geo. W.Curtin,a young man em-
ployed as a “mule catcher’ at the scaies
in the Tyrone yards, had his arm crush-
ed so badly between the dead-woods of
two cars, one day last week, that it was
found necessary to amputate it above
the elbow. :
——The game of ball which is to be
played this afternoon, Friday, will
be very interesting, as the teams are
evenly matched. Metcalf and Downs
will be the battery for Tyrone, while
Wookeock and Fahnstock will be in the
points for us.
——DMr. J. P. Strehle left for New
York and Phila., Tuesday evening, to
make selections of fall and winter milli-
nery, &e. He will return with a com-
plete assortment of all the latest and
prettiest things in Pattern Hats, Straw
and Felt Hats, birds, wings, feathers,
&e., &e. A milliner of artistic taste
will besecured for the coming season.
| ——The picnic held in the grove at
| Snow Shoe,by the members of St. Mary's
{ church, of that piace, was a brilliant
success, both financially and socially.
| The people out there seem to know just
‘how to make everybody have a good
| time at their picnics which are always
| exceedingly well attended and those
‘who go to one try not to miss any of
the others.
| ——The papers, just now, are making
| quite a fuss over the candor of a York,
(Me), lawyer, who, when a case in
| which he was counsel for the defense
was called, stepped up to the bar and
| asked the judge to hold the trial over
| as he, the lawyer, was too drunk to de-
fend his client, but he was not nearly as
candid about his inebriety as the pro-
| prietor of the Union Clothing house of
| this place was about the condition of his
heart, for when he left town 1n the fore
part of the week he closed his store and
! put up a placard on which was printed
“I am out seeing my girl.”
——The new law against boys under
| sixteen years of age using tobacco in any
| form went into effect on Sept. 1st and
| “no child actually or apparently under
: sixteen years of age shall smoke or in
l any way use a cigar or tobacco in any
form, in public street, place or resort.”
. The penalty for its violation is a fine of
| not less than two dollars nor more than
| ten for each offense and a similar pun-
ishment is fixed for the dealer who sells
| the weed to children. The youthful
| cigarette smoker has made himself quite
| obnoxious of late, but now tbere will be
- a little something to aid the mother’s
slipper in making the kids smoke mn a
different way.
——Two elegant opportunities are
| given to persons desiring to purchase a
_ nice country home, in the sale of the
| farms of the late Henry Meyer, near
Boalsburg, and of the late Joseph M.
| Wilson in Benner Twp. The Meyer
| farm contains one hundred and ninety
| acres and is one of the finest farms in
| Harris Twp. Fer full description of it
! see ad. on other page. The Wilson prop-
| erty is located on the Buffalo Ran road
just four miles west of Bellefonte and is
i under a high state of cultivation. It hes
two houses and two barns, both good,
with all necessary outbuildings, and
would make a most desirable home for
one who wants to live in the country
and be near good schools and churches,
and within a very short distance of a
railroad.
——The Grangers’ picnic, and coun-
ty - exibition, which commences at
Grang Park, Centre Hall on the 16th,
promises to be one of the biggest af-
fairs of the kind ever held in this county.
Everybody is making arrangements to
go. Those who will be unable to get
there will be unfortunate. The farmers
and manufacturers of the county should
make the same effort, however, to make
the exhibition a success in the way of
exhibits, that they do to swell the crowd
and make the attendance large. There
is not a farmer, or a manufacturer, or a
dealer, in the county, but has something
worth exhibiting in the way of stock,
grain, produce, or some manufactured
article. ‘Why not take it there and let
your neighbors see it ? Tt will do good
to have something you have praised ; it
will do the public good to see what you
have that is a little extra, and it will do
‘the pic-nic zood to have a great big,
creditable showing of the county ag
ricultural products and manufactured
articles. Every body will be glad to
see what is to be seen because the ad-
mission is free.

HymEeN.—At high noon on Thursday,
Aug. 28th the naptials of Miss Lula
Gray and Rev. Geo. W. M. Glenn were
celebrated. The ceremony was sslem-
nized in the parlor of the bride’s home,
Rev, A. P. Wharton officiating assisted
by Rev. Ivins of Williamsport.
Just as the clock was tolling the hour
of twelve the bridal party entered the
room. First came the maids of honor
Misses Esther and Ruth Gray sisters of
the bride and then the bride and groom.
They proceeded to the end of the par-
lor where a beautiful arch of flowers
bad been made and stopped directly un-
der a large bell of marguerites, which
was suspended from the centre of the
the arch. The short and impressive
ceremony was then pronounced, after
which a wedding dinner was served.
The dinner was the most elaborate
thing of its kind we have ever had the
good fortune to partake of, and if the
same thing would be repeated every
time we would wish that all the young
people about us would get married right
away.
The bride who is the oldest daughter
of Mrs. Sarah Gray of Half Moon look-
ed lovely in an exquisite dress of white
silk crape with a veil and ornaments,
while the groom, the pastor of the first
Methodist church of South Williamsport
wore the conventional suit of black.
The young couple are exceedingly
well mated. Mrs. Glenn having all those
charming traits which will combine to
make a loving wife and a great aid to
ber husband in his clerical work.
They left at four o’clock for a tour
which will include several of our most
fashionable watering places.
Many handsome and useful presents
including much ia silver, bronze and
cut glass, were received a list, of which
would be too leng for our space. We be-
speak for them a happy and successful
life and an entire fulfillment of the
bright career which the groom has just
begun,
Farar Accrpent.—Mr. John Foree,
son of Jefferson Force of Pine Glen, was
killed on Tuesday, Aug. 25th, by being
crushed beneath a falling tree. The ac-
cident occurred atthe log job of Geo.
Smith, on Seven mile run, about four
miles north west of Snow Shoe. The
young man was working with Herman
Veidheffer, at some distance from the
foot of the old dead tree. Neither one of
them saw it fall. Mr. Veidheffer narrow-
ly escaping. The tree had not been
disturbed in any way and as there was
no wind blowing at the time, no on€
was expecting its fall. The unfortunate
victim was ‘taken trom under the tree
and carried home, as fast as possible
where medical aid was summoned, but
too lata; as he was bevond help, having
had all the ribs on one side of his body
crushed as well as internal injuries. He
lived for twenty-four hours after the ac-
cident occurred and was concious up to
the last moment. The men employed
with Mr. Force feel very grateful to Mr.
Smith and John Bucannon for sending
both camps to the funeral as well as for
providing them with the conveyances
in which to go. It seems unfortunate
indeed that one just having attained his
majority and giving promise of a long
and useful life should be stricken down
without one moments warning. The
deceased was the John Force, who was
cut so badly in an affray with John
Veidheofer, a full account of which was
given in the WATCHMAN of the 14th of
February last.
SENTENCED.—In some of the cases
tried before the court which we pub-
lished last week sentence had not been
pronounced when we went to press.
Wiiliam Reed who pleaded guilty to
unlawfully selling liquor was sentenced
to pay a fine of $50, cost of prosecution
and undego imprisonment in county jail.
Calvin Mlller (colored), fornication
and bastardy ; sentenced to pay a fine
of $100 and imprisonment until sen-
tence is complied with.
Annie Hockenbury ; larceny ; fined
$1., costs, and imprisonment in jail
for 6 months,
‘Wm. McGiaty, (colored); larceny ;
$1 fine, costs, and 6 months in county
jail.
Samuel Watkins, convicted of horse
stealing ; fine $1, costs, and imprison-
ment in penitentiary for 5 years. He
is said to be the second man ever con-
victed of horse stealing in this county.
John McKinney, the boy who was
arrested several months ago on a charge
of drawing a pistol on J. B. Richie,
who for a term filled the position of
principal of Philipsburg public schools,
was called up before Judge Furst and his
sentence was postponed indefinitely.
——At¢ the last regular
the borough council Mr. Al Garman in-
vited the fathers to attend the opening
of his opera house in a body. An esti-
mate and a recommendation was made
to lay a three inch water main out east
High street. H, J. Jackson was elect-
edjChief Fire Marshal, with Al Garman
and C. F. Richards as assistants for the
coming year.
——We noticed Lieut S. A. Wolf,

MINERS AND OPERATORS CAN'T GET
between
representatives of the miners of Blair,
Cambria, Clearfield, Centre, Hunting-
don and Jefferson counties, and the op-
erators of the same region, met in Al-
tcona last week and, as was expected,
agjourned without result. The miners
presented a new scale, which the opre-
ators found irmpossibie to seriously
consider, owing to its alleged extrava-
gant demands, claiming that it: provis-
"ions would compell t> em to shut down
their works indefinitely. The miners
at first threatened a general strike, to
extend throughout Pennsylvania, but
after deliberation agreed to allow the
matter to rest until September 10, when
another conference will be held at a
place not yet decided upon. The min-
ers are firm in their demands and claim
a general strike will be the final result.

——Miss Mary R. Graham left this
morning for N. Y. City to be under in-
structions in one of the largest millin-
ery establishments in that place. She
will return about Oct. 4th with a fine
line of millinery.
——Harry Fineburg, one of the best.
known peddlers in this section, ard Mr.J.
M. Banze, a merchant tailor of Philips-
burg, were in town on Tuesday and
while here made a solid vote for ParrI-
son and the entire Democratic ticket
this fall. It’s not every-body who
comes to town can do this in so short a
time.
——Students attending school in
Bellefonte this fall will find the rail-
road accommodations very good. Those
living along the lines of the B. aud B.
R., the B. E. V. and the B. N. and L.
can leave home in the morning and re-
turn in the afternoon. School tickets
can be procured at a very low rate.
——The “Mascots,” the colored cham-
pions of Bellefonte, played a game of
ball with the Boiling Springs’ nine on
Saturday and were laid low to the tune
of twelve to six. The printers and ci-
gar makers played on the same day,
the latter coming off victorious with
the score of ten to one.
Mr. James R. Hughes, the young
correspondent of our town, is at present
conferring with Bellefonte’s business
men with reference to a boom which
tie New York World wants to give this
place. It has offered Bellefonte a whole
page for a descriptive and an illustra-
tive article on the resources of the town,
and it would be too bad if this opportu-
nity to blow ourselves should be lost.
——Mr. W. T. Twitmire, the promi-
nent tin-smith and stove dealer, of this
place, has invented and constructed a
mdil box for papers and packages,
wtich he has Lad on exhibition on the
pavement in front of the Court House.
It is larger than the regulation letter
boxes, as it is intended to receive larger
articles, but from all appearances it will
i answer the desired purpose admirably
——In order that there may be ao
misunderstanding about the opening of
the Opera House, we are authorized to
state that Nordec will be given the first
night instead of Davy Crocket, and that
the tickets sold will be used for theaight :
for which they are dated. The reason
this change is to be made is because jhe
stage cannot be gotter ready for the
presentation of Crocket on the opening
night.
