Allegheny County Negro Electrocuted
at Rockview. :
Henry Jackson, alias J. C. Taylor,
alias “Pistol Pete,” a negro of Alle-
gheny county, was electrocuted at the
Rockview penitentiary on Monday
morning for shooting patrolman Dan-
iel Conley, in Pittsburgh, on December
30th, 1922, while the officer was in the
act of searching him for carrying
liquor. Jackson went to the chair
protesting his innocence. Six minutes
after the first contact was made he
was pronounced dead by Dr. Baker, of
the Riverside penitentiary, in the ab-
sence of Dr. C. J. Newcomb, the regu-
lar prison physician. The condemned
man was attended to the death chair
by the prison chaplain, Rev. C. J.
Krahnke.
This was the first electrocution at
Rockview since N. J. McFarland suc-
ceeded Mr. Healy as deputy warden
and all preliminary details had been
so carefully looked after that there
was not a minute’s delay in carrying
out the mandate of the law. Jackson's
body was buried in the penitentiary
cemetery. :

thousand. He has twenty or more
“acres of ground, with up-to-date’pens,

“chiéf object.

Dormer Crouse and wife, of Lock
Haven, were visitors at the home of
George Crouse, Sunday.
Richard Detwiler takes his daily
‘runs down the road and back, training
' for another contest at State this sum-
‘mer. He is a good runner with good
endurance.
| Herbert Stover was at the county
. seat on Monday in attendance at the
funeral of John Love, former jani:"|
i tor and tipstaff.at the court house and
a very warm friend.
{ Wallace Debler has recovered from
the severe . bruise to his fingers sus-
tained some time ago, and is again
busy at different kinds of work. He
certainly is a busy man.
Herbert Stover has installed an
electric motor in his printing room,
‘which is a much more improved
method of power over the gasoline
engine he formerly used.
The man mentioned in a last week’s
paper who was asked about minding
his own business, has seemingly not
yet learned that part of life and keeps
up his pranks in this line.
The Methodists will have a new
minister this coming year, the former
one having served only one year. We
trust the tide of Christianity will be
more noticeable than it has been for
some years past, not only for this
church but-all of them. There was a
time when brotherly love pervaded
. but it seems that it has changed, and
as a minister put it some time ago,
it has come to the point where mem-
bers of the same church do not speak
to each other. This is not because
religion has changed but because the
people have changed.
Flittings are all the go at present,
and we have to report the following
changes in and about our town:
Charles Bressler moved from a farm
near Spring Bank to town and will
engage in the blacksmith business,
after erecting a new shop for this
purpose. Charles Snyder has decided
to go to baching and has erected a
small shack on the greens of S. H.
Hackenberg’s woods. Huston Shreck-
engast, at the time the writer is pen-
ning this, has not made known where
he expects to move, having occupied
the home of W. M. Bierly here for the
last year. He was supposed to work
for Mr. Bierly but quit some time
last summer. His friends, who were
instructing him as to what he should
do, should now step in and help him
when he has followed their instruc-
tions. Henry Rupp, whose wife is an
inmate of the Centre County hospital,
informed us last week that he is unde-
cided as to where he will move.
