to help Tener. At least that is what he is doing |
and there is none of that in ours. Penn town- |

SPRING MILLS.
Corn husking hascommenced in earnest.
Edward Winter says that notwithstanding the
cool snap of late, the ice cream business con-
tinues good.
R. G. Kenelley, employed at Snow Shoe since |
carly in the spring, arrived here on Friday last, |
on a visit to his family. |
Misses Anna M. Cummings and Rosa Smith |
have returned home from their visit to Sunbury,
Milton and Lewisburg.
William Zones is improving his residence by
raising the building six feet from the ground, and
also erecting a large jportico in front.
The coal firm of H. I. Brian & Co. was dissolved
last week, Mr. Brian buying out the interest of
J. W. Wood. [He will continue the business.
We had considerable ice here on Thursday
morning last, which looked like winter, but since
then the weather has been warm and spring like.
Emanuel Shook, who injured himself internally
two weeks ago while picking apples by the ladder
turning and throwing him off, is not improving
very rapidly.
After being confined to the house for several
days, the result of injuries caused by accidentally |
falling down stairs, James Kennelley, one of our |
old veterans, is able to be up and about again.
Senator Grim in his auto trip to Bellefonte on
Monday last, stopped off here for about an hour,
and notwithstanding the unexpected visit had
quite a reception, The Senator's address, though
brief, was tothe point and received close atten.
tion.
Allison Bros. have their mill dam nearing com-
pletion. It is very massive and built in the most |
substantial manner, with quite a number of im- |
provements added. While rebuilding the water |
power was so well arranged, that they were shut |
down only part of aday at a time. |
Friday of last week was the opening day at the |
millinery store of Mrs. Geo. N. Wolfe, and avail. |
ing myself of her kind invitation, I called in to
take a glance at the latest novelties in feminine
head wear. The rooms were beautifully and
artistically decorated and arranged for the occa.
sion. Four large tables were used in this autumn
millinery display. The fall and winter creations
are superb, bits of rare furs and costly embroi- |
deries and laces have been used to enhance many |
of the hats copied from the imported models. The |
almost endless variety of charming shapes is |
bewildering, there is no describing them, they |
are all beautiful and exquisitely becoming. Mrs.
Wolfe has again displayed her exquisite taste in
selections.
Stanley Ketchel Slain.
W. A. Hurts, the slayer of Stapley
Ketchel, the middleweight champion
pugilist, has been captured near Nian-
gua, Mo., seventeen miles from tee
scene of the shooting.
Ketchel was shot while eating break.
fast and died after being removed to
a hospital in Springfield.
With the .arrest of Mrs. Goldie,
Smith, who posed as the wife of the
pugilist’s slayer, the police have dis-
covered another motive for the crime.
Mrs. Smith has signed a statement
to the effect that Ketchel insulted her
town and we are goingto stand by him. He is a | having “conspired to cheat and de
fraud the commonwealth of Pennsyl
vania.”
The court room at Harrisburg was
filled when Judge Kunkel pronounced
sentence. By order of the court Huston
was taken in charge by Sheriff Fletch:
er, but his detention was of short dura.
tion, an order having been obtained
from the superior court at Philadel
phia for his release ca bail, pending
an appeal taken to that higher tri
bunal. ’
Huston was convicted on April 29
last. Recently he was refused a new
trial by Judge Kunkel, the judge be
fore whom he was tried.
Huston, when he stood before Judge
Kunkel, was the fifth upon whom sen-
tence has been passed in connection
with capito! graft charges. Two, Wil
liam P. Snyder, former auditor gen
eral, and Jumes M. Shumaker, one
time superiutendent of public grounds
and buildings, are serving sentences
in the eastern penitentiary.
John H. Sanderson, capitol contrac
tor, and generally regarded as one of
the culpable ones, is dead. Death also
put William L. Mathues, former state
treasurer, beyond the power of a court
to imprison. Both died shortly after
their conviction on Dec. 18, 1908.
Snyder and Shumaker were sentenc
ed to two years each. Also they were
ordered to pay a $500 fine and the cost
to the state of prosecuting him.
Superior Court Grants a Supersedeas
on Appeal.
Promptly upon receiving word by
long distance telephone that Judge
Kunkel, in the Dauphin county court,
had imposed sentence on Joseph M.
Huston, architect of the new state cap
itol, George 8. Graham went before
the superior court in Philadelphia and
presented a petition for an appeal, the
same to act as a supersedeas.
The principal grounds upon which
the appeal was based are that the de
fendant was convicted on incompetent
testimony; that the court eired in its
refusal to charge the jury that under
all the evid nce the deiendant was le
gally entitled to be acquitted; that the
jury gave a verdict of acquittal on the
charge of conspiracy and found him
guilty on a charge which was not in
the indictment; that legal coercion
was used in compelling the jury to
change its verdict.
Huston was under $60,000 bail at the
time of his trial, $2000 bail on each of
thirty indictments, which were divided
into two sets of fifteen bills each. At
. his first trial Huston was acquitted
| with Cassel.
In asking for a supersedeas appeal
Mr. Graham suggested that the bail be |
reduced to $25,000. The judges con-
sulted over the petition for about
twenty minutes and then granted the
motion as presented. Mr. Graham at
once wired his associate counsel in
Harrisburg that Huston's sentence had
been stayed.
Picking Ripe Strawberries.
Ripe strawberries are being picked
at Ossining, N. Y., and they all grew
in the open air. The late comers were
found by workmen on the Pierson
property. There were fully twenty
strawberries on the vines, all large,
perfectly formed and luscious.
on the morning of the day the shoot.
ing took place, and that news of the
conversation that offended her so in-
flamed Hurtz that he was greatly
wrought up.
The police are inclined to believe
Mrs. Smith's story.
Following is the statement signed
by Mrs. Smith:
“While I was working in the house
Ketchel insulted me. I became angry.
He was greatly wrought up over the
incident and pleaded with me not to
say anything to Hurtz. He said he
would give me the best team of horses
on the farm if I would keep quiet. I
made him no promise.
“When Hurtz came home I told him
what Ketchel had said to me. He was
very angry. I think that is what caus-'
ed him to kill Ketchel.” !
