The regular September session of court convened on Monday morning with Judge Miles I. Potter, of the Sny- der-Union county judicial district, pre- siding in place of Judge Dale. Judge Potter is no stranger in Bellefonte as he was on the bench during the second week of court last Februray. In order to facilitate court business he had the grand jury polled the first thing after convening. ’Squire E. H. Auman, of Pine Grove Mills, was appointed fore- man and after charging the jury as to its duties it retired to deliberate on the presentments prepared by the dis- trict attorney. : The court then disposed of various petitions presented and the list of traverse jurors was called and excus- es noted. The court then announced that he would hear and dispose of ali pleas of guilty. Henry Nevel plead guilty to being the father of an illegitimate child and was sentenced to pay a fine of $25, costs and $3 a week for the sup- port of the child. I. G. Hall, of Snow Shoe, plead guilty to operating gambling devices and was fined $50 and costs. Frank Tomazak, of Benner town- ship, plead guilty to the charge of il- legal possession and selling intoxicat- ing liquors, and was sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and undergo imprison- ment in the county jail for a period of two months. Martin Rachau, of Clarence, plead guilty to illegal manufacture and pos- session of liquor. When arrested state police found in his possession a thirty gallon still, two gallons and a half of moonshine and two barrels of mash. He was fined $200 and sent to jail for six months. Andy Kosko, of Rush township, plead guilty to illegal possession and was fined $50 and sent to jail for thir- ty days. Charles Rogers, of Snow Shoe In- tersection, plead guilty to manufac- turing and illegal possession and was fined $200 and sent to jail for six months. Judge Potter stated that he is going to do his part to break up the nefarious practice of manufactur- ing moonshine. If it was good liquor it might not be so bad, but the stuff that is made and sold is poison and unfit to drink. The case against the Bellefonte lodge of Moose was disposed of by the court imposing a fine of $1,000 and costs and giving the lodge thirty days in which to settle. This case had been hanging fire ‘since the Moose was raided by state police on the 7th of last January. At that time a large quantity of home-made brew was con- fiscated which analyzed a much higher per cent. of alcohol than permitted by law. When the case was called up before Judge Potter that gentleman asked the lodge’s attorney how many members it had. On being told five hundred he said $1,000 fine, which will be but two dollars apiece, and they likely had that much fun out of it. The first jury trial was that of the Commonwealth vs. Daniel Kittrell, of State College, Bessie Cheyney prose- The jury returned a verdict of not guilty and divided the costs. The next case was that of Margaret Ellen Baumgardner vs. Collins C. administrator, et al, being a civil action to revive a judg- ment. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of $119, with interest from April 3, 1899. On Friday morning Teresa Yulock plead guilty to violating the liquor laws and was fined $200, costs of pros- ecution and sent to jail for six months. The grand jury ignored the bill in the case against C. M. Smith, of Mill- heim, charged with forgery, and put the costs on the prosecutor, James Fromm. Commonwealth vs. Harry Finberg, of Philipsburg, charged with rape. Prosecutor Mary Drop. The jury re- turned a verdict of not guilty. Commonwealth vs. George Walk, of Hannah Furnace, charged with the larceny of some tools from the Bell Telephone company. The jury return- verdict of guilty. Mr. Finklestine’s attorneys later made a motion for a new trial, which will naturally delay judgment on the verdict. Commonwealth vs. David Finkle- stine, of Bellefonte, indicted for oper- ating gambling devices and illegal possession of liquor. Mr. Finklestine plead guilty to the first charge and stood trial on the second. After hear- ing the evidence the jury returned a verdict of guilty. Mary XKormanic, of Snow Shee township, plead guilty to manufactur- ing and illegal possession of liquor and was fined $200, costs of prosecu- tion and given six months in the coun- ty jail. Charles A. Isenberg plead guilty to illegal possession and was sentenced to pay a fine of $50, costs of prosecu- tion and imprisonment in the county jail for a period of thirty days. Late Wednesday afternoon the case of the Commonwealth vs. Nick Gar- binski, of Osceola Mills, was taken up. The prosecutor was Harry McMoni- gal and Nick was charged with as- sault and battery and inciting to riot. Mr, Garbinski is an organizer for the United Mine Workers and the case grew out of trouble at Moshannon mine No. 10, on May 15th, 1925, dur- ing a miner's strike. The case for the Commonwealth was conducted by dis- trict attorney Ivan Walker and N. B. Spangler, while attorney Chase, of Clearfield, represented the defendant. Testimony in the case was taken at a night session Wednesday evening and the case went to the jury yesterday morning. ; The grand jury was still in session "when the “Watchman” went to press | yesterday. For several years past ‘grand juries in Centre county have completed their work in two or three days, but it must not be construed ' that the jury this week is farming the "job. Far from it. They have been FORMER BELLEFONTE BOY ! KILLED IN LEWISTOWN.

A session of court was held by Judge Dale, last Saturday, to clear as many cases as possible from the dock- {ly left the depot. After driving al- et so as to relieve the work at the reg- j ular court session this week. { W. D. Zerby, attorney for James Morrison, sentenced on Tuesday of ‘last week to pay a fine of $100 and costs for operating an automobile after his license had been revoked, pe- titioned the court to permit his client to pay his fine and costs in install- . ments of $29.70 per month instead of | spending the time in jail. The court signed the petition but informed Mr. | Morrison that if he defaults on any of the payments he will be returned to jail. The district attorney asked that nolle prosses be granted in the cases against Forrest F. Homan and Frank Mazzi because of insufficient evidence to convict, and the same was granted. He also asked that the cases against Earl Horner and Glenn Corman be nolle prossed. These are the two young men arrested with Russell Stamm on the charge of attempting to pass a forged check, but inasmuch as Stamm has assumed all the blame a nolle pros was granted. The case of Max Herr, a State Col- lege student, charged with operating a motor car without a certificate of ownership, was also nolle prossed, be- cause it was shown that the car in question had been purchased as junk, rebuilt and the young man has secur- ed a certificate of ownership for a re- built car. Clyde Jackson, of State College, plead guilty to wilfully, maliciously and fraudulently altering and publish- ing a check in connection with a trans- action with John Haugh & Son, of State College, and was sentenced to pay a fine of one dollar, costs of pros- ecuticn and undergo imprisonment in the western penitentiary for not less than one nor more than two years. Mrs. Florence Shay was brought be- fore the court on the charge of the larceny of a coat, traveling bag, pink dress and hat from Hazel Carver. She plead guilty but because of the plea of her attorney to give her one more chanee, and her promise to reform, sentence was suspended for a period of three years upon the payment of costs. . C. L. Hall, of Snow Shoe, plead guilty to operating gambling devices and was sentenced to pay a fine of $50 and costs. Robert A. Patton, of Port Matilda, plead guilty to the charge of assault and battery preferred by Mrs. Maude Lykens, of Port Matilda. Mr. Patton, who is probably seventy years old, es- sayed the role of peacemaker in the Lykens family and got into trouble himself. He was sentenced to pay a fine of $25 and costs. ——Strangest monsters of all ages reviewed in “The Lost World,” at Moose Temple theatre, Friday and Saturday. Results of Saturday’s Football Games. { Only a fair crowd went out to Hughes field, on Saturday afternoon, : to see the opening game of the Belle- fonte Academy football season, and it was some game. The Academy’s op- ponents were the soldiers from the Carlisle barracks, and they may be good soldiers but they didn’t show up very strong on the football field, es- i pecially against the kind of a team i turned out by coach Snavely. The ! very fact that the Academy rolled up a score of 95 points while the soldiers i failed to make one down, is evidence i of the relative strength of the teams. i Capt. Hood's forward passing for the . Academy was one of the spectacular features of the game, but brilliant work was also done by Whitmore, Hin- kle and Thompson. The first team scored 53 points in the first half then the second line men were put in and they ran the score up 42 points more. Up at State College the State team had to work hard to defeat Lebanon Valley college 14 to 0. During the first half of the game the visitors held State scoreless, the two touch- downs being made in the third and fourth quarters. State has lots of material to draw from but their of- fensive was weak in Saturday’s game. The Bellefonte High school eleven played Snow Shoe, on Beaver field on Saturday morning, defeating them by the score of 19 to 0. World’s largest beast in “The Lost World,” at Moose Temple theatre tonight and tomorrow night. 39-1t —————————p i —————— Residents of Bellefonte pretty generally complain of high taxes. The millage here is 57, but over in South Philipsburg it is 88. And many peo- ple of that burg would like to go back into Rush township where the millage is 63. Of course the property valua- tion has a lot to do with high taxes and we are not informed regarding the valuation either in South Philips- burg or Rush township, but we do know it is enough in Bellefonte to make taxes seem pretty high. 39-1t ! | among a crowd of fifty or more . youngsters who went to the depot to ! greet C.

William McGowan, who has been iil for the past two months is slowly growing better. During the period of his illness Mr. McGowan was taken to Altoona, and Washington, D. C., where specialists in both cities were consult- , ed. | The condition of Miss Miriam Smith, which has been regarded as serious for some time, remains un- changed. Henry Taylor was stricken last i week with complete paralysis, and is now regarded as critically ill at his home on Spring street. | Robert Irwin is thought to be slow- . ly improving, following a three week’s illness from a bad heart condition, during which time he was thought to be seriously ill.
