MEAT KILLERS SENTENCED.
W. R. Quick Case Also Aired Before
the Court.
At a special session of court last
Saturday morning, George Taylor and
Paul Hetrick plead guilty to killing a
two year old heifer belonging to Ed-
gar Fisher, of Boggs township, and
also killing and stealing a nice young
hog from the brood pens of the west-
ern penitentiary at Rockview, and
converting the meat of both to their
own use. The detailed story of both
killings was told in last week's
“Watchman.” When called for sen-
tence Judge Quigley asked the men
what their object was in killing the
heifer and hog and taking the meat
and Mr. Taylor stated that they need-
ed the meat to eat and took that way
of getting it. He admitted that he
had been working at the Titan Metal
company and averaged a little over
five dollars a day, but did not have
full weeks at any time. The court
sentenced both men to a year and a
half to three years on each indict-
ment, or a total of three to six years,
and in passing sentence stated that
he regretted the fact that he could not
impose longer terms, as both men are
a menace to any community. They
were taken to the western peniten-
tiary at Pittsburgh on Tuesday by
sheriff Dukeman. Taylor's wife, Mrs.
Mabel Emil Shawley Taylor, was not
implicated in the killing of the ani-
mals or taking of the carcasses and
she was released, and the meat, which
had been confiscated by the sheriff,
was given back to her.
COURT GIVES STATUS TO QUICK CASE
District attorney James C. Furst
addressed the court and stated that
he was in possession of an inquiry
from W. A. Sickle, of Snow Shoe, rel-
ative to the release of W. R. Quick
from the Centre county jail providing
any bond required by the court be
properly executed and filed.
Mr. Quick has been in the Centre
county jail since October 9th when he
was brought in from Snow Shoe by a
New York Central railroad policeman
after firing five shots through the
door of his wife’s bedroom, his plea
being that she had a man in the room
with her. But the case in reality
dates back to December 30th, 1922,
when Quick was arrested on charges
of desertion and non-support prefer-
red by his wife. The Quicks have
three children and the case was heard
on Jaunary 10th at which time careful
inquiry was made as to Quick’s earn-
ing capacity as a carpenter after
which the court ordered him to pay
the costs and $50 a month for the sup-
port of his wife and children.
Failing to do so he was again
brought before the court on June 20th,
when he was directed to comply with
the order of the court or he would be
kept in jail. On August 8th he was
again brought into court for failure
to comply with the court order and
gave as his reason his wife’s infideli-
ty. The court, however, directed that
he pay the money into the Snow Shoe
bank for the support of his children
and told Quick that inasmuch as he
refused to live with his wife he was to’
stay in Philipsburg and suggested a
divorce as the best way out of his
marital trouble.
But instead of staying away he
went back on the night of October
8th, armed with a revolver, and along
about two o’clock in the morning got
into the house in some way and the
shooting above told about followed.
Later, it is alleged, Quick threatened
to kill his wife and the man he claim-
ed was in the room with her. It was
doubtless because of this fact that
Quick was kept in jail, although no
direct effort had been made by any-
body prior to Saturday looking to-
ward his release.
In fact the court took occasion to
tell Mr. Quick that his case had never
in any official way been brought be-
fore him until Mr. Furst opened it on
Saturday. He denounced the allega-
tion that he had been kept in jail for
political purposes and to shield some-
body else as base calumnies and with-
out any foundation in fact. He stat-
ed that the court had no sympathy
with eithe © him or his wife, as both
were guilty of the same offenses, ac-
cording to evidence in the possession
of the court, and the real reasons why
he had been kept in jail were because
he had utterly disregarded the court’s
order and he wasn’t deemed a safe
man to be at large.
Upon inquiry it developed that
Quick had not only failed to comply
with the court order regarding the
payment of the monthly sum for the
support of his wife and children, but
had never paid a cent of the costs or
his 2ttorney’s fees.
Irasmuch as arrangements had been
made for the placing of the three
children in the boys’ industrial home,
the girls’ industrial home and the
home for the friendless, all in Wil-
liamsport, at a total cost of $30 a
month, the court stipulated that Quick
could gain his release by filing a bond
of $500 with the county commission-
ers to pay for the support of his chil-
dren, and a bond of $2,000 with the
clerk of the court to keep the peace,
both bonds to be approved by the
court; and also to pay the accrued
costs in the case.
An effort was made to have Quick
released on bail on Saturday after-
noon but this was refused. Bonds
were executed early in the week but
at the time this article was written
they had not been approved by the
court, Judge Quigley being in Pitts-
burgh, but if the bonds meet with the
court’s approval he will very likely
order Quick’s release. In the mean-
time the three Quick children were
taken to the homes in Williamsport
on Monday and thus they have been
placed in better surroundings, at
least.
State College Decides to Co-operate |
With Bellefonte.
At a very interesting town meeting,
held at State College, Monday night,
under the direction of the Chamber of
Commerce, probably the most inter-
esting business to those outside of
College borough was the report of
the Chamber’s committee to investi-
gate and report on the practicability
of building a hospital at that place.
Mr. Harvey, chairman of the hos-
pital committee, reported that they
found it impracticable to consider
building a hospital at this time and
recommended that the town co-op-
erate either with the contemplated
campus undertaking of the same kind
or with Bellefonte. He stated that
there was a division on his commit-
tee, however, and a minority report
would be presented. Thereupon Dr.
Martin presented a minority report
urging that State College go ahead
with a building and equipment plan
of its own.
A general discussion followed in
which it was shown that they contem-
plated a building at a cost of not less
than $35,000 and that much of its
equipment would be donated by Drs.
Grover and William Glenn from the
private sanitorium they conducted at
the College until recently.
Dr. Ritenour, the college physician,
explained that the hospital contem-
plated for the campus will be for stu-
dents only. After its completion all
students will be charged a regular
medical service fee and that will pro-
vide for care during any illness they
might suffer while in college. While
he expressed the opinion that the
town of State College would not have
use of it generally he did say that it
would scarcely close its doors to any
emergency cases that might develop
in the town.
This statement made it apparent
that co-operation with the College en-
terprise would be fruitless, so far as
service generally to the town is con-
cerned and seemed to focus the dis-
cussion on the other two alternatives:
Build for themselves or co-operate
with Bellefonte to the end of making
the institution here as near perfect as
possible with the means at command.
It was suggested that the name be
changed so as to tie it up more defi-
nitely as a county institution and that
the board of managers and staff be so
chosen as to include members from all
parts of the county.
John Blanchard Esq., Robert F.
Hunter and Geo. R. Meek were pres-
ent at the meeting, representing the
local hospital, and gave what assur-
ance they could to the effect that there
would probably be no objection to
changing the name and that any per-
son in the county is and has been al-
ways eligible to membership on the
board.
The project was threshed out from
every angle and then a motion was
made and seconded that State College
go ahead with its own building pro-
gram. It had been rather difficult to
sense the real feeling of those pres-
ent, but when the vote was taken it
was found that the motion was lost,
by quite a substantial majority.
The result, of course, is that it is
the intention of the people of State
College to join heartily in any move-
ment that may be undertaken for the
betterment of the Bellefonte institu-
tion with a view to making it a thor- |
oughly equipped Centre County Gen-
eral hospital.
D. A. Barlett’s Home Damaged by
Fire.
The home of David A. Barlett, on
east Curtin street, was considerably
damaged by fire on Tuesday evening
and in breaking the glass in the win-
dow to get into the house J. Edward
Decker sustained a badly cut hand.
The fire broke out shortly after seven
o’clock and evidently originated from
a defective flue. The house is a frame
structure and the flames eat up be-
tween the outer planking and plaster
up to the second floor, where they
burned the contents of two closets.
Mr. and Mrs. Barlett and children
were away from home, having gone
out to Pittsburgh, and the fire may
have been smouldering for some time
before it broke out. Mr. Decker, who
lives in one of Mr. Barlett’s houses
close by, was the first on the scene
and the door being locked broke a
pane of glass in a window with his
fist. As he did so another pane,
doubtless loosened by the heat, fell
down and cut him severely on the
back of the right hand, severing two
tendons and two small arteries. He
was taken to the Bellefonte hospital
where his injured hand was given
proper attention.
In the meantime the firemen arriv-
ed upon the scene and were able to
extinguish the flames with their
chemical apparatis. The damage is
estimated at one thousand dollars or
more, partly covered by insurance.
Feasted on Wild Turkey.
Early last week the John Wana-
maker of Curtin’s Works, in other
words, our Democratic friend Jerre
Glenn, hied himself into the woods
and then hied back again totin’ a sev-
enteen pound wild turkey.
The event was celebrated last Fri-
day when Mrs. Galer Morrison and
her daughter, Miss Marion, and Mrs.
Alice Parker, all of this place; Miss
Marion Pletcher, of Howard, and Har-
ry Curtin, of Curtin, gathered at the
Glenn home to feast on the bird.
A son, who has been named
Richard Silsbee, was born Sunday
night to Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Valen-
tine, of Williamsport. It being their
first child and the only grand-child,
the little stranger was a most wel-
come guest.
THE DAYS OF REAL SPORT.
Every Camp Filled for Opening of
Deer Hunting Season Tomorrow.
’
Coming over the mountain by way of
Beaver Mills and Julian, from Phil-
ipsburg on Sunday, game warden
Thomas A. Mosier saw a herd of nine
deer cross the road in the neighbor-
hood of the Six Mile run. He first
saw the deer traveling along the side
of the mountain and stopped his car.
Other cars coming along were also
stopped and the deer finally crossed
the road in plain sight not over a
quarter of a mile away. It was a
sight to tingle the fingers of every
man who witnessed it. Baseball, foot-
ball, horse racing and hunting small
game all have their enthusiastic fol-
lowers, but the days of real sport are
those spent on the trail of deer, the
fleetest footed animal in the Pennsyl-
vania forests.
Hunting party after hunting party
have been wending their way moun-
tainward every day this week and be-
fore the shadows fall this evening
every camp in the Seven mountains,
on the Alleghenies, in Sugar valley
and every other deer habitat will be
filled up with an army of hunters, old
and young, eager for the first streaks
of dawn tomorrow morning and the
opening drive. Every hunting party
includes a number of men old in the
sport and who are acquainted with the
territory in which their camp is lo-
cated and the first drive is carefully
planned and made with a view of un-
covering the hiding place of the deer
and bringing one or more to earth.
Inasmuch as deer have been reported
very plentiful in all the mountainous
sections of the county every hunting
party naturally has visions of getting
their limit of six deer. Many will be
disappointed, of course, but others
will likely succeed. Last year a doz-
en or more parties got their limit and
were out of the mountains before the
end of the first week.
Most of the hunters from Belle-
fonte and vicinity will go to their old
camps in the Seven mountains. That
vast range will also absorb every
hunting party from the western end
of the county as well as the entire
south side. Bald Eagle valley hunt-
ers still cling to the Alleghenies and
some of them get their deer every
year. Nittany valley hunters go in-
to Sugar valley where there are both
deer and bear, and most every year
they manage to bring home the “ba-
con.”
Last week we told of the pilgrim-
age of the Fleetfoot hunting club, of
College and Ferguson townships, to
i Potter county, for their annual bear
hunt before the opening of the deer
season. They returned on Sunday
with a fine specimen which weighed
i 250 pounds. The bear was killed on
Thursday, the first day of the hunt,
by Homer C. McKillip, of Hollidays-
burg, who was a guest of the club.
The bear was taken to Hollidaysburg
where it was hung up on exhibition
i until Tuesday when it was taken to
{ State College, cut up and divided
among the members of the club.
Coincident with the opening of the
deer season tomorrow the small game
season, with the exception of rabbits,
will close today. While quite a num-
ber of wild turkeys have been killed
in the county, the season as a whole
has been rather disappointing to small
game hunters. Comparatively few
pheasants have been killed while rab-
bits are scarce or have kept under
cover.

J. H. Turner’s Store at Julian Bur-
glarized.
The general store of J. H. Turner,
at Julian, was burglarized some time
between the closing hour on Monday
night and the opening of the store on
Tuesday morning, and while the rob-
bers got no cash they must have had
a truck to haul away the merchan-
dise taken. Included in the plunder
were a large number of pairs of high-
priced shoes, dress goods, clothing,
etc. In fact Mr. Turner has not yet
been able to make a complete list of
everything stolen, as the robbers evi-
dently overhauled the store pretty
thoroughly and took only such arti-
cles as they specially wanted. The
value of the goods stolen, so far as
now listed, will aggregate over two
hundred dollars and may be consid-
erably more.
The robbers effected an entrance
through a basement window then
broke open the door leading from the
store room to the basement. So far
not a clew has been discovered that
might lead to their identity.
Bellefonte Y. Notes.
The girls’ and womens’ classes for
gymnasium exercises started a month
ago, have proved a great success. The
enrollment has reached over one hun-
dred and it is necessary to close the
class to any. more new comers. Mrs.
Robert Walker is directing the class
and her efficient leadership and pep
makes a most pleasing combination
for getting health and fun out of the
class.
The manager of the senior basket
ball team is busy lining up teams to
play the local boys this season. There
is talk of arranging a game for each
week.
The board of directors will meet
this (Friday) evening, at 8 o’clock.
Important business relative to the
winter's work will betransacted.

As to Those Christmas Cards.
Several weeks ago we called atten-
tion to the rather exceptional line of
Christmas cards we have in stock.
They are all opened now and on dis-
play. They run in price for lots of 25,
with envelopes to match, at $3.50,
$4.50 and $5.75. These prices include
the printing of your name and any
Greeting you may select.
We do not sell cards separately or
break boxes. We will sell the cards
in lots of 25 or more to any who de-
sire to write their own Greetings.
For engraving the prices are high-
er, but not greatly so, if you have
your own name plate.
Come in and see them. A card of
Greeting to your friends means far
more to many of them than a real
present would. And think of the num-
ber of friends you can remember at a
very small outlay.
