Pap FINE FOR DYNAMITING.—Friday
afternoon of last week John Jackson, of
Lemont, who at a hearing before justice
of the peace W. H. Musser, on Tuesday,
was fined one hundred dollars and costs
for dynamiting fish in Spring creek,
through his attorney, Col. H. S. Taylor,
settled the case by paying the amount of
the fine and costs, or $118.00 in all. Jack-
son did not appear in person, the author-
ity to settle the same and the money for
the payment of the fine and costs having
been brought to Bellefonte by another
gentleman from Lemont. The WATCHMAN
does not presume to sit in judgmen* upon
either the guilt or innocence of Mr. Jack-
son, but the fact that he paid his fine and
costs in settlement of the case is some-
what incriminating. There are many
rumors of various trout streams in the
county being dynamited and we have no
sympathy with the class of men who are
so small as to stoop to this unlawful
method of obtaining fish of any kind and
we commend the work of any fish war-
den who possesses the nerve to go after
culprits and bring them to just punish.

made was a friend forever. He wasa
man of the strictest integrity, upright in
all business dealings as well as in his
daily associations with his fellowmen,
and an esteem once won he never lost.
While practically all his life was devoted
to operating the McCoy-Linn iron works
he was not unmindful of the other busi-
ness interests of Bellefonte and frequent-
ly contributed his wise counsel, time and
money to any worthy project. He was
the kind of a man who will be missed
personally and by the community.
On October 30th, 1879, he was united
in marriage to Miss Esther Eleanor Alli-

Potters Mills. She survives with two
