——The Moshannon Coal company, of

completed employment will be given to

and the output will be increased from six
himself. About 8:30 o'clock he was vis-
ited by his pastor, Rev. P. E. Paul, of the
A. M. E. church, accompanied by Rev. H.
N. Hepler, of the Free Methodist church,
with members of the Salvation Army, who
held a one hour's prayer and praise serv-
ice and remained to accompany him to
the scaffold.
On account of the lateness of the arriv-
al of several of the men selected to com-
pose the jury and the necessity of pick-
ing new men the intended time of execu-
tion was delayed a few minutes so that it
was just ten minutes and fifteen seconds
past ten o'clock when the condemned
man, supported on either side by the
sheriff and his deputy, appeared at the
door leading from the jail office to the
jail yard, the trio being preceded by
Revs. Paul and Heoler. The prisoner
walked with a firm step and mounted the
scaffold without an apparent quiver.
When the five men stood upon the plat-
form Rev. Hepler offered up a brief pray- |
er while Rev. Paul prayed at greater |
length. At 10:13 o'clock the prisoner |
was given an opportunity to speak if he
had anything to say. He stepped to the
railing of the scaffold and spoke for three
minutes. The most vital points of his re.
marks are as follows:
Gentlemen and friends, it's a very pleasant
day. I thank God my life has been spared
this long. Ihave been bad and committed a
crime and I am willing to suffer for it. I feel
thankful for the belief that God has forgiven
me and in a minute I hope to be with Jesus,
just as soon as the drop falls. God bless you
one and all. I wish to thank the sheriff and
deputy sheriff, as well as those who had me in
charge, for treating me so good. I also wish
to say a word about the grub I was given ever
since | was in jail. It was good and so nicely
cooked and served by the sheriff's good wife.
I pray all my brothers to turn from a sinful
life and live right with God. Let them take
warning from me. I hope none of my family
may ever be where I am now. Again God
bless you all and keep you right. Goodbye to
everybody.
At the conclusion of his remarks De-
lige stepped back upon the trap and while
the sheriff and deputy adjusted the straps
exhibited the only signs of fear, but it
was only momentarily. It took one min-
ute to adjust the straps, noose and black
cap and it was just ten o'clock 17 minutes
and one second when the drop fell. After
the body fell, aside from a slight swaying
from side to side the only thing notice-
able was a brief twitching of the fingers
and a convulsive drawing up of one leg.
Eleven minutes after the drop fell the
physicians in attendance, namely: Drs.
M. J. Locke and W. W. Feidt, of Belle-
fonte; coroner S. M. Huff, of Milesburg;
Walter J. Kurtz, of Howard, and P. §&
Fisher, of Zion, announced that the heart
had ceased to beat, but he was not offi-
cially declared dead until 10 o'clock 31
minutes and 40 seconds, 14 minutes and
39 seconds after the trap was sprung. At
10:48 the straps were removed and at
10:54 the body was cut down and turned
over to undertaker S. S. Osman, of Port
Matilda, who placed it in the coffin al-
hundred 4o-one thousand tons a day.
to his conviction, as a very strong chain
of circumstantial evidence had been
woven around him by the Common- |
wealth.
After being on trial three days the jury
at nine o'clock on Saturday evening, De-
cember 10th, brought in a verdict of!
guilty of murder in the first degree. He!
was sentenced to be hanged by Judge
Orvis on Saturday, December 17th, and
remanded to jail until such time as the
Governor should see fit to set a day for
the carrying of the sentence into execu-
tion. On February 22nd Governor Tener
named Tuesday April 25th, as the day
on which the final mandate of the law
should be carried out and now that such
has been done the word finis can be
written on one of the most revolting and
dastardly cases that ever besmirched the
court records or the fair fame of Centre
county. Andit is to be earnestly hoped
that never again will a similar case oc-
cur in this county.

resumed on High street bridge and how
it is to be done. In this connection we
desire to state that we know absolutely
nothing about it. The members of the
borough council know very little more
and the county commissioners declare
is that the petition for a new or rebuilt
bridge must go before one grand jury at
least and be approved by the court be-
fore anything can be done. Engineers
are preparing plans on which the bridge
can be rebuilt, and if the petition is en-
dorsed by the grand jury and approved
by the court then it will be up to the
authorities to advertise for bids for the
work. The grand jury will not be in
session before the third week in May and
if that body endorses the petition, it will
take at least three weeks more before
the contract can be awarded. That will
run toward the latter part of June, then
it will be up to the reader to figure out
how long it will take the successful bid-
der to construct the material and get to
work on the bridge. As it looks now it
means that the High street bridge will be
in a torn up condition practically all sum-
mer, and that is as near as the WATCH-
MAN editor can figure it out.

THE ACADEMY MINSTRELS.—The next
big event in Bellefonte will be the Belle-
fonte Academy minstrels on Friday and
Saturday evenings of next week, May 5th
and 6th. It will be a big event from the
Academy viewpoint and the people of
Bellefonte want to make it big from every
standpoint because of the fact that itis
to be an athletic benefit, and the big-
ger the crowd the bigger the percentage
to the Bellefonte baseball association.
This is one reason why the minstrels
should be liberally supported. Another
reason is that they are bigger and bet-
ter this year than in former years,
with new songs, new jokes, new
dialogue, etc. While the minstrels will
give you more than your money's worth
their performance will be followed with
a one act comedy, “Mrs. Flyn’s Lodgers,”
given by local talent under the direction
of Mrs. John M. Shugert and others
which in itself will be worth the price of
admission. Therefore keep May 5th and
6th open for the Academy minstrels.
