CLOSING SCENES OF THE WOODWARD
TrAGEDY.—The shocking tragedy that
occurrad in the little town of Wood-
ward, this county, on Thursday and
Friday of last week, during the enact-
ment - of which William Ettlinger, a
desperate character of that place, killed
constable John Barner then defied ar-
rest and was finally burned out of his
own home only to end his crimes with a
pistol shot, is already fast becoming
criminal history. Occasionally a group
of people are found talking about the
awful horrors of those two days, but for
the most part the excitement has died
away and the usual peaceful air of this
county is again pervading every district
init.
The last acts in the tragedy occurred
on Saturday and Monday morning,
when the bodies of the dead were in-
terred. After the coroner’s inquest the
body of Ettlinger was turned over to
his relatives, who, either from fear of
condemnation for giving it decent burial
or because his awful crimes had killed
the last Spark of love they had for
him, would have nothing more to do
with it. The poor overseers then
made a rough pine box forit and as
the setting sun cast a melancholy gloom
over the whole valley they carted the
body off to a lonely spot on the moun-
tain side, about three fourths of a mile
from the town where it was buried
without further ceremony. Of course
the usual exciting rumors have been
afloat since then to the effect that the
body bad been stolen by vandals, but
positive information to the WATCHMAN,
yesterday, is to the effect that the grave
has not been disturbed. It is located
on a patch of wooded land owned by
Ettlinger. 1tis probable that in a short
time the body will be removed to a bet-
ter place, as Mrs. KEttlinger says she
“would sooner see it on the dissecting
table than lying up there among the
dead cattle.”
Quite in contrast with the manner in
which Ettlinger was buried was the
funeral of constable John Barner. In-
stead of being hurriedly chucked into a
hole as might have been done with tha
carcass of some putrid animal, his
funeral, on Monday, attracted a large
crowd of people to Woodward. The
body had been made quite natural look-
ing by the undertakers, who closed up
the gaping wound in the throat. Ser-
vices were held according to the rites of
the Kvangelical church, of which he
was a member, and interment was made
in the cemetery at Woodward. Con-
stable Barner was 37 years old and
leaves a widow, with four children, the
youngest having been bora last October.
Its said to bave been the largest fu-
neral ever held in that valley.
Since the tragedy Mrs. Ettlinger has
had time to recover somewhat from her
awfu! experience. She talks freely of it
now and iz sincerely sorry that the hus-
band, whom she says she loved with all
her heart, should have come to such a
sad end. According to her stories none
he when not crossed, but the
very demon seemed to possess
bim when in his occasional fits of pas
sion. He is known in thie place very
favorably and there are many here who
have a good word for the better nature
which be should have cultivated more.
He was a genius, handsome, and intelli-
gent and while no punishment could
have been too severe for him had he
been taken, there are none, who, in tho
calmer moments of reascn, will not
her appearing at the window in the act
of lighting a dynamite fuse was true,
but justifies her act by saying it was
forced and that the very fact that she
leaned far out of the window to strike
| the match should convince the wost
skeptical that her intention was to
i thereby warn the crowd of danger.
Her stories of the awful day and
night are enough to give anyone the
quakes. During the whole time the
family was under fire they had nothing
to eat but an aiderberry pie and a few
crackers. They nearly famished, too,
for they could not get out to get wa-
ter. The children cried all night for
something and their thirst was only
partially appeased by some stagnant
stuff that she found in a crock in the
cellar.
Ettinger did not kill Barner at the
first shot and even after the second had
been fired into his skull “he made such .
an ugly noise that he went down and
cut his throat.” Altogether there were
ten or twelve dozen sticks of dynamite
in the house ; all of them with fuse and
caps ready for use.
SHERIFF JOHN P. CoNDO oF CENTRE
Co.—Published through tha courtesy of
the Pittsburgh Dispatc/..
Stories have been afloat to the eftect
that James Cornelly received raward for
the firing of the house. He did not,
nor was there a reward offered for any-
thing that was done, aside trom the offer
made by sheriff Condo to pay $300, out
of his own pocket, to any one who
would induce Ettlinger to surrender
peaceably. Isaac Raven, of Millbeim,
and Henry Snyder, of Woodward, were
inclined to take him up but friends dis-
suaded them from such a hazardous
undertaking.
As for the county being liable for
the destroyed property, two of the com-
missioners said, last evening, that they
had not even contemplated the matter
officially, though they would willingly
do anything that the law requires in
the case. Under the circumstances
the citizens can rest assured that every-
thing that might arise from the tragedy
will be settled in a perfectly satisfactory
manner and to the honor of the ty.
But would it not be well for thé county
to have the body of the out-law raised
and given a christian burial, would it
not redound to the civilization and en-
lightenment in which old Centre has so
often bad occasion to pride herself ?
A fter all, Ettlinger’s tedy is but clay
and his soul has gone to answer before a
greater court than the sentiment of a
bitter and excited people constitutes.
While the people of Woodward are
raising funds for a monument to the
memory of the dead constable we {trust
that so noble a work will imbue them
with a spirit of forgiveness and forget-
fulness that will entirely efface any
stigma that may have attached to Mrs,
Kttlinger and her children, as a result
of those sad ecenes from which they
have and will suffer enough during life.
We had a report, yesterday after-
noon, direct from Woodward, that Mr.
G uisewhite is getting along nicely and
will recover. The danger of blood
poisoning from his wcunds is past.
With this issue the Watcaman pre-
sents its subscribers with a souvenir
supplewent of the tragedy. The illus-
trations are correct counterparts of
photographs made duriog the day and
while they are not as clear as
we would liketo have had them the
necessary disadvantage under which
the photographer was working, and
the gloominess of the day, made it im-
have some sympathy for him.
Possibly it is well that death came |
to him when it did for kis widow tells |
of a fiendish plot he Lad just about |
ready to carry out. With “paris green |
and some other white staff he had!
sewed up in a little bag’ he had in- |
tended to poison the spring from which |
his neighbors drew their water for’
domestic use. In truth, she said it was |
his lament, after he had killed Barner, |
that he had’nt dore the thing the
night before, as he had intended do- |
ing. This was to punish real or sup- |
posed enemies. :
It will _not surprise many to learn
that Mi Ettlinger received an offer |
from a man named Zzno, in Philadel- !
phia, to exhibit herselt in dime mu-
seums for a six week's seascn, at $50
per week. Of course she declined it, say- |
ing ; she ‘would’nt lend herself to
such purposes for a million dcllars.”” She
will continue to reside in that com- |
munity, where the people feel the
kindliest towards her and the two little
children. She admits that the story
told in last week's WATCHMAN about
possible to get any better pictures.
They are the only true pictures of the
scenes as taken.
The WatcuMAN does not pride itself
it the manner in which it has handled
the stories of the tragedy. It gave its
readers the whole thing in its three
editions of last Friday and did only
what might;have been expected of any
thoroughly reliable. paper. The story,
as it appeared in the extra-street read
by all, nearly a week ago, is strictly
reliable in every detail and none of its
statements have been proven ill-ground.

ANoTHER WEEK OF FATALITIES. —
Having been seriously ill for about
six weeks Jennie H., daughter of Mr.
und Mrs. William Eckley, who, live on
a farm at the foot of the mountain above
Coleville, died on Sunday morning.
Like the three sisters who preceded her
so recently to the grave she was a
healthy looking, robust girl, the very
picture of perfect physical condition,
until a short tithe ago consumption, the
dread disease of this northern clime,
developed and effected her dissolution
with remarkable dispatch. Deceased
was 28 years old and is survived by her
parents and one sister, Miss Amanda.
Laura M., died Sept. 28th, 1888 ; Bella
‘M., died Nov. 14th, 1893 and Mure.
Edith Roan died Dec. 81st, 1894, thus
making four deaths in that family from
the same disease within eight years.
“Funeral services were conducted by
Revs. Young and Miller, Wednesday
afternoon, and interment was made in
the Union cemetery.
The remaining members of the family
have the sincere sympathy of all those
who know of the great sorrow that hss
been theirs.

The venerable Andrew Gearhart, aged
72 years, 11 months and 16 days, died
at his home in Chester Hill, near Phil-
ipsburg, on Monday. Deceased had not
been considered to be in a serious con-
dition and his death was not expected to
result from the apparently slight attack
of muscular rheumatism with which he
had suffered for little more than two
weeks. Deceased was a man whose
depth of character and sturdy integrity
impressed itself in no small way on the
community in which he lived. He was
a successful farmer and lumberman and
was one of a large family, born and
raised in that community, all of whom
have ever been regarded as representa-
tive types of honor. His was a consistent
life in Methodism. Funeral services
were held yesterday afternoon.
A widow with four children survive,
with seven brothers and sisters.
Isaiah Coxey, possibly the best known
character in Harris township, was found
dead in his bed at his home in Boals-
burg, Wednesday morning. Heart dis-
ease, superinduced by over-exertion
while in this place last Saturday, is as-
signed as the cause. Isainh had been
down hero spending the day and had to
take his bed on returning. The mem-
bers of the family were not much
alarmed at his condition as he had often
had such attacks before, so the shock
was all the greater to Mrs. Coxey, when
she went into his room to find him dead.
Funeral services will be conducted at
his late home this morning, according
to the rituals of the Lutheran church.
Daceased bad driven the stage be-
tween Boalsburg and Oak Hall for
years. He was 66 years old and, be-
sides his widow, leaves five sons and two
daughters. During the late excitement
over the ‘‘good-roads’’ movement agita-
ted by Gen Coxey, of Ohio, Isaiah
gained considerable notoriety as an un-
cle of the General who could not sympa-
thize with the wild ideas of his nephew.

. WiLL Meer Hxre.—Bellefonte is
not to be without some interesting events
during the coming summer. It has been
thought that after the number of un-
usual gatherings here last year that the
town would be given the go-bye during
196, but such is not to be the case. At
the meeting of the executive committge
of ibe Pennsylvania Dental society,
held in Philadelphia last week, it was
decided to change the place of its
next annual meeling from Gettysburg to
Bellefonte. Accordingly that body,
numbering three or four hundred men
many of them with their wives, will
meet here for three days during the mid-
dle of July.
At the last meeting of the society, at
Eagle’s Mere, Dr. J. E. Ward, of this
place, worked very hard to secure the
next meeting for Bellefonte, but it was
decided to go to Gettysburg. Now that
the place has been changed he is very
much pleased with the out-come ‘and
can rest assured that Bellefonte will ac-
cord a warm reception to this represen-
tative body of such an important pro-
tession in the State. :
Most of the sessions will be public, so
that the interesting advances that have
been made in dentistry during the past
year can be observed by all who care to
attend.

—— William Philips, of Lock Haven,
has not been getting along very amica-
bly with his spouse of late, so he got up
early Monday morning and went into a
neighbor's wood-shed, where he attempt-
ed suicide. As ke had the noose around
under his arms and began kicking and
making a noise as soon as he ‘swung
off’ it is thought the attempt was just a
little dodge to frighten his wife into
loving him more.
——George Weld, an" itinerant music
teacher, who has had classes in this and
Clearfield county, and who lived in
Philipsburg not so very long ago,
jumped. from a passenger train, near

in Clearfield, at the Dzcember court, for
adultery, but he skipped his bail and
fled west. After being located a con-
stable was sent after him with requisi-
tion papers on which he was returning

escape. Weld was a large, fine looking
man, 8 good musician, was married and
had a family.

from Bellefonte and intermediate poiats

vice added to the fact that there
are no tedious waits at trans.
fer points has made this line be-
tween Bellefonte and Pailipsburg the
popular route. Ii is not the most direct
road to Philipsburg, but by reason of

FosTEr’'S WEATHER TALK.—The
following is Mr. Foster's prognostica-
tion for the weather for the early part
of this month. Under ordinary circum-
stances it would be quite interesting,
but every body has come to respect the
ground hog, as a prophet, and we know
what to expect for two weeks more at
least.
“My last bulletin gave forecasts of
the storm wave to cross the continent
from Feb. 29 to March’ 4, and the next
will reach the Pacific coast about
March 5, cross west of Rockies country
by the close of the 6th, great central
valleys on 7th to 9th and the eastern
States on tke 10th. The warm wave will
cress the west of the Rockies country
about March 5, great central valleys on
the 7th and the eastern States on the 9th.
A cold wave will cross west of Rockies
country about March 8, great central
valleys on 10th and tbe eastern States
on 12th. oh
Third disturbance of March will be of
unusual force and importance and will
probably cause tornadoes in some of the
southern States. This disturbance will
reach Pacific coast about the 12th, cross
the west of Rockies country by the close
of the 13th, the great ceniral valleys
14th to the 16th and the eastern States
on the 17th. This storm including the
low and its counterpart, high, will take
a southern route and in some of the
southern States serious results from kill-
ing frosts are probable.
