THE NOVEMBER COURT IN SESSION—
The usual bustle consequent upon the
opening ot a regular term of court was
noticeable about the Court House, on
Monday morning, and when tho trains
acrived later there was a large number
of people on hand either to win or lose
cases, pass on them as jurors or lend
their knowledge as testimony for what-
ever it would prove worth.
The most of the morning session was
taken up with the constable’s returns,
the reading of various petitions and the
organization of the grand jury which
got to work early. Judges Furst, Riley
and Faulkner were on the bench at the
opening, but it was not long until both
associates retired. The former being ill
himself, while tbe latter was called home
on account of the illness of a daughter.
The miscellaneous business was just
finished by noon, when adjournment
was made. After the reconvening of
in the following order :
Commonwealth vs Amon Snyder, for
larceny, defendant was found guilty of
stealing a box of clothes and dishes from
the shanty of W. C. Sheesley, sometime
in last July. Sentenced to pay a fine of
ons dollar, restore the stolen property or
the value thereof, and to undergo a term
of imprisonment in the Western peniten-
tiary for a period of one year and four
months.
Commonwealth vs Reuben Penning-
ton, larceny. Young Pennington was
charged with stealing 8 watch from Mr.
Tate, Gen. Hastings’ man-of all-work.
Plead guilty and was sentenced to the
reformatory at Huntingdon.
Commonwealth vs Richard Fink, con-
tinued,
Commonwealth vs Thomas H. Fink,
charged with larceny. Verdict not
guilty. He was charged with stealing
the housings off harness owned by
Richard Newman.
In the case of Commonwealth vs
Lemuel Pcorman and Thomas John-
ston, malicious mischief, the indictment
was quashed because of an error in draw=
ing it up.
Commonwealth vs Christ Rudolph,
larceny, found not guilty.
Commonwealth vs John Kegsickle,
indecent assault and assault with intent
to commit rape. Tae prosecutrix was
Jennette Rhoads, a girl 16 years old,
Defendant was found guilty of indecent
assault only. Sentenced to pay a fine of
$50, costs of prosecution and undergo
imprisonment in jail for a period of four
months, The prosecutrix is a daughter
of Thomas Rhoads, who lives just on
the out skirts of Bellefonte.
Commonwealth vs E. G. McElarney,
f. and 'b, Clara Spicer prosecutrix.
Found guilty and sentenced to pay a
fine of $25. costs of prosecution, $30 to
the def ndantand $1.50 per week for
seven years for the maintenance of the

$600 to the overseers of Boggs township
for the faithful performance of the same.
Commonwealth vs Charles Meyer and
Stanley Rbine, charged with stealing a
dun horse and buggy from the stable of
Michael Strohm, in Potter towaship, ot
which the WATCHMAN gave a full ac-
count at the time. Dafendants plead
guilty and prayed for mercy at the
bands of the court. The boys are both
trom respectable families in Milton, and
a long petition was presented to the
court by Senator Hackenberg, one of
their attorneys from that town, asking
for clemency for them. It is certainly
a misfortune for two young men of their
standing to find themselves insuch a
plight, but the theft they committed
was certainly as culpable a crime a3 any
that has come before the court this week
and they should suffer the consequences
Sentence was postponed in their case,
but they will more than likely go to the
reformatory.
Commonwealth vs John Hines, assault
and battery. Charles Frantz was the
prosecutor. Found guilty of assault and
sentenced $5 and costs.
The case of the Commonwealth vs
Joshua Foulk, charged with stealing
money from Wm. Horner, while the
latter was asleep in Foulk’s house, was
settled before it went to the jury.
In the case of Annie Simpson, of Port
Matilda, charged with indecency and
lewdness was withdrawn and the wretch-
ed girl was sent to Altoona, to a home
for such characters. She is a young wo-
man who came to this county from the
vicinity of Clearfield.
Common wealth vs Levi Hamer, charg-
ed with stealing 47 bushels of buckwheat
from P. B. Kelly, in a settlement be-
tween litigants, both of whom are from
the upper end of the Bald Eagle valley.
The case was non-suited.
Commonwealth vs Rabecca and Dolly
Davis, Bellefonte girls, charged with
cruelty to animals by Frank Bosch, a
Bellefonte liveryman. Bill ignored and

Commonwealth vs Lowery Walker,

court the criminal list was disposed of
This wasa case brought in from the
town of Ussanova, and was theout come
of a fight over & Singer sewing machine
which Mrs. Peterson’s neighbor had
purchased from Travis on the install-
ment plan. The machine had been
pearly all paid for when the purchaser
moved away from Casanova and he left
it with Mrs. Peterson until he could
finish payment on it. Notwithstanding
his intentions were honest the agent
went to the Peterson home to take the
machine away, which prosecutrix tried
to prevent and a scuffls ensued in which
she was hurt.
Commonwealth vs Wm. Frye, of
Boggs township, charged with adultery
and f. and b. Found guilty and een-

and the usual sentence for the other
offense.

tenced to serve 6 months additional
time for breaking jail. To take effect
upon the expiration of his former sen-
tence. ,
Harry Sampsel and James Huey,
Benner township road supervisors,
were up for misdemeanor in office, but
the bill was ignored and the county
will have to pay costs.
J. S. Showers, the young sharper who
passed bogus checks on many hotel-
keepers throughout the State, and who
was caught up at Olean, N. Y., after
he had stuck J. M. Neubauer, of the
Brockerhoff House in this place, plead
guilty and was sentenced to pay a fine
of $1, costs and serve two years and
eleven months in the penitentiary.
The last case taken up was that of
the commonwealth vs Wm. Garis, a
Bellefonte policeman, charged by Mrs.
Newton Gibson, of Thomas street, with
having taken a pocket book containing
$47 from a table in her home. Garis
had been called there to preserve the
family peace and it is said that the
pocket book departed when he did. The
case was given to the jury yesterday
morning with instructions for it to re-
turn a sealed verdict whereupon court
adjourned until this morning at 9
o'clock. The opinicn of many who
heard the case was about divided as to
what the outcome would be, though
there is a general belief that the verdict
will be for acquittal.
TRUE BILLS WERE FOUND.
In the following cases the grand jury
found true bills :
Commonwealth vs Frank Nighthart,
f. and b.
Commonwealth vs John Brickley,
tf. and b.
Commonwealth vs Spenser Breon,
f. and b.
Commonwealth vs Wm. Kessler
Rouben Billmeyer and J. P. Manar for
assault and battery upon Geo. E. Wens-
ler, of Millheim, at C)bura.
Commonwealth vs Richard Fink, as-
sault and battery and maintenance. Pros-
ecutor, 0. Weston.
Commonwenlth vs John H. Rishel.
gurety of the peace and maintenance.
Prosecutrix, Alice L. Rishel.
Commonwealth vs Peter Chon, f. and b.
Commonwealth vs Fred Walker, lar-
ceny. Pexsscutrr F. ME. Sayder.
Commonwealth vs M B Garman and
Geo. Cunningham, cruelty to animals.
Commonwealth vs Samuel Immel
incestuous firnication.
The grand jury was under the fore-
manship of George W. McGaffey Eq,
of Philipsburg, and handled its business
in a very expeditious manner. There
seems to be very little improvement in
the morals of the county, for the list of
women who appear in court hunting
redress for illegitimate children con-
tinues as large as ever. It seems to us
if the punishment for this offense was
made more severe and if the women were
made to share it with the men there
would be fewer cases to bother and dis-
grace our courts. It is certain that both
parties to such illicit practices should
suffer the punishment they so richly
deserve.
——A new brick crossing will be laid
over Water steet from the High street
bridge to the Arcade in a short time.
—TIt is with the greatest pleasure
that the WATCHMAN is able to state
that associate judge Faulkner has arrang.
ed his deficiency in the Philipsburg
borough tax duplicate in such a satis-
factory way that his bondsmen have
withdrawn suit against him. The
WATCHMAN made no mention of the
trouble befure because it felt that judge
Faulkner would settle it to the satisfac-
tion of everyone.
—— David Leroy Woodring, the old-
est son of conductor John Woodring, of
the B. BE. V. construction train, died
from typhoid fever at his parents’ home
in Tyrone, early Tuesday morning. He
had been ill only a short time, but in
one of his attacks of delirium he sprang
out of bed and it is thought that shock to
his system caused bis death. The young
man is well known here, where he made
his home for seven years when his fa-
ther was stationed here, and the many
friends of his boyhood days will be sorry
to learn of his untimely death. He was
just twenty years old.
Tae UNDINES AND THEIR BALL.—
The much talked of ball of the nsw Un-
dine Fire Co. was held in Arcade hall |
on Wednesday night and fulfilled every
expectation. The firemen were in their
element and what, with natty new uni-
forms, pretty girls, their own good mu-
sicand a great crowd could they have
wished for more. The annual Thanks-
giving eve ball is just as much a part of
the regular order of business with the
Undines as their monthly business meet-
ings, with the difference that in this
they forget everything else and ask
their friends to join them in a night's
devotion to Terpsichore.
The last dance was fraught with far
more importance to the firemen than
any of its predecassors, for it marked
the debut of a reorgamzal company.
Promptly at eight o'cliek a line of
parade was formed in front of the en-
gine house, on Logan street, with the
Uadine baad of fifteen peices heading
it. The line moved off Logan to
Spring, down Spring to Bishop, up
Bishop to Allegheny and thence to
High. As the parade passed the Brock-
erhoff house the fire laddies presented a
very natty appaarance. Baad ani fire-
men were clad alike in navy blue suits.
Sack coats with white silk cord binding,
trousers with white braid stripes and
tha regulation blue fatizae cap on the
tront of which is worked in white silk
cord the magma ‘Undine No. 2.”
The band played with such a dash and
the firemen followed with such a jaunty
air that they met applause from all
sides as they swunz into High street and
moved down to the dance hall.
At 9 o'clock the grand march began.
It was led by Mr. Anton Zppard and
Miss Celia McMahon.
The number of ladies in full evening
dress was a pleasing feature of what was
one of the most successful dances ever
given by Ballefonte firemen. The Ua-
dine’s own orchestra of eight pieces, un
der the leadership of Mr. Frank Dei
trich, furnished a grade of music toat
played no little part in making the
dancers have an enjoyable time. Then
to such conveniences as a well manag-
ed cloak room and refreshment reiraat
were innovations that did mucn toward
leaving an agreeable impression. The
best of order prevailed and the dancers
whirled merrily over the waxed flror
until three o'clock. Among the ladies
who were present were :
Misses Agnes and Mary Hull, in
pink with chiffon; Miss Mary Mar:
tin in a stunning gowa of blue silk
with red velvet ; Miss Margarette Vallence in
white mull; Miss Margie Gill looked pretty
in pink and blue china silk, Miss Kittie
McMahon in cream tulle over silz;
Miss Roebe Derr in pink muslin de soie
Miss Annie Foley in pink; Miss Say
lor wore white mull, the Miss Gessner
in fetching gowns, Miss Pacina, Miss
Maggie Fahey, Katharine Ammerman, Miss
Whittaker, Miss Lose, Mrs. Harry Williams
and Miss Mama Haley and Miss Sadie Mec!
Gilley, of Snow Shoe.
The dance was largely attended and
proved a financial success to the Un-
dines At mid-night the drawing for
the handsome walnut escrifoire, valued
at $100, was held and Mr. Frank
Montgomery’s number proved the
lucky one.
AN Ux~cextrLEMaNLY Act. — Last
Saturday a pry of Pnilipsbury boys,
representing the High school of that
town, came here to play a game of
foot ball with the Belletonte High
school eleven, and the game was
calied at 2 o'clock ou the glass works
meadow. It wis not long until the
visitors showed that they were too
much for the home players and in a
very few minutes had ecored a touch-,
down from which a goal was kicked.
Then the Bellefonte team tried to ring
in “Ging:r’’ Harris, a 180 lb. colored
feliow, who is not a student. The vie-
itors rightly objected to this and re-
fused to play with him, whereupon our
boys played the baby act and left the
field, refusing to pay the $15.00 guaran:
tee. Hospitable John Neubauer, of
the Brockerhoff house, invited the
Philipsburgers to spend the night as
his guests which they did, and drove
home the next morning.
The Relletonte High school boys
should be made pay that guarantee or ree
tund the money to the people from whom
it was procured. We are surprised
that they thould act in such an nn-
manly wav and are sure it would have
been far more honorable for them to
have been beatea in a lair and square
game, than to have played the baby
act as they did. It was the general
verdict of the crowd that the visitors
were entirely right in their refusal to
play with Harris.
Prices WAY DowN AT CEADER’S.
—The low price of wheat has had its ef-
fect on the price of bread and to-day

baker, is selling it lower than ever be-
fore. His holiday goods are not behind

of confections than has ever filled his
store before, prices are lower than ever.
