Former Bellefonte Boy Murdered at
Spring Grove.
Three weeks ago the “Watchman”
told of the death of Charles Wise,
twelve year old son of Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph Wise, of Spring Grove, but
formerly of Bellefonte, and at the
time it was stated that his death was
caused by a stray shot from some un-
known hunter’s gun. It now devel-
ops that the boy was deliberately mur-
dered by one of his companions, a sev-
enteen year old youth named Ray-
mond Stambaugh, according to re-
ports from Spring Grove.
The shooting occurred on October
23rd, and the boys’ companions as-
serted that the bullet that killed the
boy was fired by some one unknown.
But when the boy was carried home
the distracted mother discovered that
instead of a single bullet hole the boy
had been shot three times, and his
blue woolen blouse was burned, show-
ing that the shots had been fired at
close range. After the funeral the
parents of the boy made inquiries
throughout the neighborhood and
learned that no hunters had been
afield that day. This confirmed their
suspicions of foul play.
On Monday of this week, according
to the story sent out from Spring
Grove the parents took their son John,
who was with his brother on the fatal
23rd of October, to the scene of the
shooting, and after persistent ques-
tioning the lad told the following sto-
ry: That Randolph Stambaugh, El-
mer Gladfelter and himself started
for the meadow near the town shortly
after dinner on the day in question,
and that Charles wanted to go along
but they warned him to stay at home.
The boy then returned home, procur-
ed a small rifle and returned to the
meadow. The three older boys were
hiding behind an old log and Charles
shot his rifle in the air twice to at-
tract attention. As the second shot
was fired, the elder brother avers,
they all got out from behind the log
and went to where the boy was.
Stambaugh grabbed him by the neck
and taking a revolver from one of the
other boys, shot him in the back. The
boy fell mortally wounded and died in
a short time. The boys then concoct-
ed the story of the stray shot from a
mythical hunter.
The county authorities have the
Stambaugh boy under surveillance un-
til a thorough inquiry into the case
can be made.
American Legion Returns Thanks.
Editor “Democratic Watchman.”
The Brooks—Doll Post No. 33,
American Legion, wishes through the
“Watchman” to express their full ap-
preciation to all those organizations
and individuals who joined in making
Armistice day a success.
No movement could have had more
genuine support from the entire com-
munity than was afforded the Legion
jn their first attempt to celebrate that
day. It has a wealth of meaning and
memory for us, and yet has more than
casual meaning for every American
man and woman who was behind our
armies during those two and a half
years. That it all has not been for-
gotten, that appreciation for the ex-
perience we all were forced to under-
go, has not faded, that the people are
not willing that the 11th of Novem-
ber shall be ignored but celebrated as
the second Thanksgiving day of our
country, was amply shown on last
Thursday.
To the business men of Bellefonte,
for their patriotism in declaring a
half ho'iday, to all the various organ-
jzations who marched, and by their
presence made the parade a success,
and to all who supported us in our un-
dertaking, we wish to express our ap-
preciation.
With the assurance of hearty co-
operation for the benefit of the com-
munity and our country, we remain,
Very truly yours,

Scarlet Fever Increasing.
Health officer Benjamin Aikey re-
ported at this office, Wednesday even-
ing, that there are now more than
twenty-five cases of scarlet fever in
his district, which comprises Spring,
Benner and Boggs townships.
It is so prevalent in the country
along the Jacksonville road that the
Oak Grove school was closed on Tues-
day and two of the Benner children,
on the Brockerhoff farm, went down
with the disease the day before the
sale, :
Up to this time we have not heard
of a serious case, however. Most of
them are what we used to call scarlet
rash or scarletina, a child’s disease
that was not viewed with alarm.
Nowadays medical science regards
them all as scarlet fever, varying in
virulence, and treats them as such and
Bee same quarantine regulations ob-
ain.
There have been quite a number of
mild cases in Bellefonte though they
geem to be abating -here.
HARTSOCK.—John C. Hartsock !
was born in Patton township October !
27th, 1834, and was a son of the late
Henry G. and Nancy Chambers Hart-
sock. He was a wood mechanic by
trade, and with his father carried on
the foundry business at Matternville
for several years, and at Warriors-
mark from 1875 to 1879 with his
brother, the late H. H. Hartsock. In
1879 he moved to his farm in Buffalo
Run valley, and about twenty-five
years ago retired.
Mr. Hartsock was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church for over
sixty-five years, a Sunday school
teacher for more than fifty years, a
class leader forty-five years, and an
exhorter for many years, holding po-
sitions as trustee and steward. He
was a member of the Gray’s church
all his christian life with the excep-
tion of four years when his member-
ship was in the church at Warriors-
mark.
Nine years ago he suffered a stroke
of paralysis, from which he recovered
sufficiently to be about, in his home
and community. On Friday, Novem-
ber 5th, he was taken suddenly ill and
grew weaker until Thursday, Novem-
ber 11th, when his spirit passed to its
reward. He was 86 years, and 14
days old.
On January 14th, 1862, he was unit-
ed in marriage to Catharine Cham-
bers, who, in her 80th year still sur-
vives, with the following children:
Mrs. J. Linn Murphy, of Ithaca, N. Y.;
Rev. F. D. Hartsock, superintendent
of the Scranton district, Wyoming,
(Pa.) conference; Charles E. Hart-
sock, of Buffalo Run; J. L. Hartsock,
of Fillmore; Mrs. Budd Richards, of
Pittsburgh, and Rev. H. Willis Hart-
sock, pastor of Ridge Avenue Meth-
odist Episcopal church, Harrisburg;
and by eighteen grandchildren and one
great-grandchild.
Funeral services were conducted at
the home on Saturday afternoon at
two o'clock, and were in charge of the
pastor, Rev. W. W. Reeder. His body
was borne to rest in Gray’s cemetery
by his four sons and two grand-sons,
Paul and Fred Hartsock. »

DUNLAP.—The rather unexpected
death of Samuel Alexander Dunlap, at
his home in Pine Grove Mills at 8:30
o'clock on Sunday evening, was quite
a shock to his many friends, compara-
tively few of whom knew of his ser-
ious illness. Mr. Dunlap was a car-
penter by occupation and some ten
years ago he was badly injured in the
collapse of a scaffold at State College
on which he was working. He never
fully recovered and three years ago
he suffered a slight stroke of paraly-
sis which was followed some months
later by a second stroke. He recover-
ed sufficiently, however, to be up and
around doing chores around the house
and made his daily trip to the post-
office. Last Thursday, however, he
complained of not feeling well and de-
cided to remain in bed for the day.
But instead of improving he gradually
grew worse until the end on Sunday
evening.
Deceased was a son of John and
Catherine Rhodes Dunlap and was
born in Ferguson township on Janu-
ary 4th, 1851, hence was 61
years, 10 months and 10 days
old. As a young man he learn-
ed the carpenter's trade, an occupa-
tion he followed all his life. He was
a life-long member of the Methodist
church and a member of Tussey
Council No. 115, I. O. A., for twenty-
seven years. He was a staunch Dem-
ocrat, a man of strong convictions
and high principles, and a true and
sincere friend and neighbor.
On January 7th, 1875, he was mar-
ried to Miss Lizzie Gummo, who sur-
vives with the following children:
Miss Leah, of Spring City; John C., of
Expedite; Randall H., of Twin Rocks;
G. R., of Pine Grove Mills; Miss
Edith, of Johnsonburg, and Miss
Catherine, at home. He also leaves
one sister, Mrs. Ed Bubb, of Colyer,
and two grand-children.
Funeral services were held at his
late home at Pine Grove Mills at 2:30
o'clock on Wednesday afternoon by his
pastor, Rev. I. E. Fisher, after which
burial was made in the new cemetery.

He was a son of Balser and Magda-
lina Pletcher Weber and was born at
Howard on January 15th, 1868, hence
was in his fifty-third year. His en-
tire life was spent at Howard where
he was interested in the well known
firm of Weber Bros. and for a number
of years engaged in farming. He was
a member of the Masonic fraternity
and the I. O. O. F.
On September 19th, 1889, he was
united in marriage to Miss Kate Year-
ick who survives with the following
children: Nelle, Loretta, Mary, He-
lene, Virginia, John and Walter. He
also leaves two brothers and two sis-
ters, Abram, William, Mrs. Clara

Hawaiian Musicians at the Opera
House.
The music lovers of Bellefonte and
vicinity will be offered a treat during
the engagement of “A Night in Hon-
olulu,” at the opera house next Mon-
day, November 22nd, when Imperial
native Hawaiians appear in conjunc-
tion with the above attraction. These
Hawaiian boys are all well educated
and come from some of the best fami-
lies in Hawaii. James Hapkini, the
leader, is a graduate of the Leland
Stanford University in California; his
father was an appointee under Pres-
ident McKinley. Charles Kamaka was
a tutor to Miss Claudia Spreckles,
daughter of the millionaire sugar
king, of California, teaching her to
play the steel guitar.
As an added attraction Miss Una
Carpenter will introduce her artistic
conception of the famous native Hula
dance, not the vulgar display general-
ly accepted but a refined and polite
terpsichorean dance creation. Thisis
the same company that played here
about one year ago and was so well
received. Everything will be present-
ed as before, nothing cut out, nothing
slighted.
Killed in Auto Wreck.
Leonard Long, the seventeen year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. George Long,
of Marsh Creek, drove his automobile
headon into a moving freight train at
the Mill Hall crossing of the Bald Ea-
gle Valley railroad last Friday even-
ing, and was killed instantly. A
young man by the name of Floyd
Boone was with him but he escaped
serious injury. This is the same
crossing where the T. R. Harter fam-
ily met such tragic deaths last July.
In addition to his parents the un-
fortunate young man is survived by
the following brothers and sisters:
Mrs. Everley, of Orviston; Alfred, of
Flemington; Harry, Warren and Ray-
mond, all of Howard. Burial was
made in the Summit Hill cemetery on
Tuesday morning.

Wilson Bids Nation to Return Thanks.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 12.—Pres-
ident Wilson issued his Thanksgiving
proclamation tonight, saying that “in
plenty, security and peace, our vir-
tuous and self-reliant people face the
future,” and setting aside Thursday
November 25, for the usual observ-
ances. The text follows:
“The season approaches when it be-
hooves us to turn from the distrac-
tions and preoccupations of our daily
life, that we may contemplate the
mercies which have been vouchsafed
to us, and render heartfelt and un-
feigned thanks unto God for His man-
ifold goodness. This is an old observ-
ance of the American people, deeply
imbedded in our thought and habit.
The burdens and the stresses of life
have their own insistence.
“We have abundant cause for
thanksgiving. The lesions of the war
are rapidly healing. The great army
of free men which America sent to
the defense of liberty are returning to
the grateful embrace of the nation,
has resumed the useful pursuits of
peace, as simply and as promptly as
it rushed to arms in obedience to the
country’s call. The equal justice of
our laws has received steady vindica-
tion in the support of a law-abiding
people against various and sinister at-
tacks, which have reflected only the
baser agitations of war, now happily
passing.
“In plenty, security and peace, our
virtuous and self-reliant people face
the future, its duties and its opportu-
nities. May we have vision to dis-
cern our duties, the strength, both of |
hand and resolve, to discharge them,
and the soundness of heart to realize
that the truest opportunities are those
of service.
“In a spirit, then, of devotion and
stewardship, we should give thanks in
our hearts and dedicate ourselves to
the service of God’s merciful and lov-
ing purposes to His children.
“Wherefore, I, Woodrow Wilson,
President of the United States of
America, do hereby designate Thurs-
day, the twenty-fifth day of Novem-
ber next, as a day of thanksgiving
and prayer, and I call upon my coun-
trymen to cease from their ordinary
tasks and avocations upon that day,
giving it up to the remembrance of
God and His blessings, and their du-
tiful and grateful acknowledgement.”

HELP RED CROSS ROLL CALL.
| Its appeal based upob a record of
| solid achievement during the last
| year in putting under way its peace
{ time program, the Fourth Roll Call
, of the American Red Cross will begin
| this week. Throughout the length and
. breadth of the land and even in the
far-off possessions of the United
States, the American people will be
given the opportunity to renew alle
giance to their Red Cross through the
payment of dues for the coming year.
An adult membership of approximate-
| ly 10,000,000 resulted from the [oll
Call last year and preliminary reports
from all parts of the country iudicute
hat this extent of support will ve
by intsineg and possibly exceeded tor
“The Red Cross comes to its Fourth
Roll Call with its war task still un-
finished and its peace program rapidly
developing,” says Dr. Livingston Far-
rand, chairman of the Central Com
mittee. “Never were the world and
national needs so pressing and the
corresponding opportunities for service
! so great. Wide-spread distress and
| sickness stare us in the face in Europe
and the Red Cross is carrying on to
| the extent of its resources, ic an at
tempt to answer the call for help.
How permanent and far-reaching that
answer shall be depends upon the
mind and the conscience of the Amer-
ican people.
The Work at Home,
_ diers and sailors in hospita.s and else
| where are still umbered by the thou-
sands. The Red Cross must stand by
those who gave their best for their
country and extend what aid and com-
fort may be possible.
“An attempt to build up the health
of the country, which is the outstand-
ing feature of the peace prograr of
: the Red Cross, is taking the energies
of the organization. Demands for
! visiting nurses come from every cor-
effort is being made to supply that
organization of Health Cente.s is
munity welfare everywhere. The new
public philosophy of not merely curing
the sick, but of keeping people well is
opening illimitable lines of possibility.
The Junior Red Cross is developing
i in the school children of the country
ideals and habits of sound citizenship
| which mean more, perhaps, than any-
i thing else for the future safety of our
American democracy. Home Service
| is a necessary function of the Red
Cross, for there are thousands of fami-
lies of soldiers which are still in need
of friendly counsel and relief. Along
i its historic line of activity and use-
| fulness the Red Cross is standardizing
| its Disaster Relief, so that there shall
| be in constant readiness a trained or-
| ganization ready upon a moment's no-
i tice to carry its work of merc -
| where.” s ’ ya
Every One Should Join,
The Fourth Roll Call will begin gen-
| erally throughout the country on the
| second anniversary of the signing of
the Armistice, and continue, wherever
necessary, to Thanksgiving Day, No-
| vember 25. For many weeks National
Headquarters, the fourteen divisions
and the over 8650 Chapters have been
organizing Red Cross workers every-
