MANY CASES HEARD
IN COURT THIS WEEK
List of Criminal Indictments the
Largest Ever Entered in
Centre County.
When the regular sessions of May
court convened, on Monday morning.
an innovation confronted the
spectators in the shape of a prisoner’:
dock railed off in the southeast cor-
ner of the court room. It was con-
structed there on Saturday and af-
fords a convenient place for sheriff
Harry E. Dunlap to herd together the
unfortunates committed to his care
and keeping by Judge Fleming.
The first case called for trial was
that of the Commonwealth vs. How-
ard Miller, charged with betrayal by
Eutalca Bathurst. In her own testi-
mony the plaintiff confessed to a
rather promiscuous line of conduct
with the result that the defendant
was acquitted but required to pay the
costs.
Commonwealth vs. Clayton Emen-
hizer, indicted for possession of intox-
icating liquor. Emenhizer lives at
Orviston and his arrest was based on
information furnished by Carrie
Walker. The evidence of the Com-
monwealth showed defendant had in
his possession a quantity of home
brew which, according to analysis,
had an alcoholic content of just a
fraction over one per cent. No evi-
dence was produced of any sale. At
the conclusion of the testimony Em-
enhizer changed his plea of not guil-
ty to guilty, and was sentenced to
pay the costs of prosecution, $50 fine
and go on probation for one year.
The next case called was that
against John Smay, of Snow Shoe
Intersection, indicted on two counts,
sale and possession of intoxicating
liquor, and second count possession
only. It will be recalled that when
the big raid was pulled off hereabouts
on February 8th the Smay home was
visited but the raiding officers found
nothing, although they claimed the
house reeked with fumes. On March
29th county detective Leo Boden,
armed with a search warrant, again
visited the Smay home and in a cun-
ningly contrived partition discovered
a quantity of liquor and two cases of
beer, while two more cases were
found in the kitchen. The liquor was
confiscated and Smay gave bail for
his appearance at court. When his
case was called on Monday detective
Boden informed the court that he had
evidence that a few days after
Smay’s arrest he had sold liquor tc
High school students from State Col-
lege. Judge Fleming told Smay that
the court would not waste any tim»
moralizing with him as he was fully
informed of his notorious actions and
promptly sentenced him to pay a fine
of $750 and undergo imprisonment
in the county jail for a period of two
years: “and I want it distinctly un-
derstood now,” said the Judge, “that
the court will not consider any ap-
plication for parole until the jail sen-
tence is served in full.”
Commonwealth vs. Mary C. Wat-
son indicted for assault and battery,
Prosecutor, Ira C. Viehdorfer, tax
collector of Burnside township. The
case was the result of an assault com-
mitted by defendant on the prosecu-
tor when he went to her home to col-
lect taxes on May 3rd. A verdict of
guilty was returned and Mrs. Wat-
son was sentenced to pay a fine of
$50 and costs, was placed on proba-
tion for one year and also ordered to
arrange for the payment of a fire
and costs imposed on a former occa-
sion when she was convicted as a
common scold.
In the case against Mode Auman
and Newton Lingle, against whom
ten indictments are pending, grow-
ing out of charges for the alleged
robbing of ten hunting camps in the
Seven mountains, counsel for defend-
ants moved to quash the indictments
for various reasons and the case was
continued to the June argument
court.
The cases against Albert Auman.
Perry Hoover, W. E. Confer, Edward
Finkle and Ralph Rote, all under in-
dictment as accessories after the fact
in the above alleged robberies, were
also continued to the June argument
court. ;
~ Commonwealth vs. C. T. Corman,
indicted for possesion of intoxicating
liquor for beverage purposes. Pros-
ecutor, A. E. Yougel, chief of police
of State College. The testimony in
this case developed that the prosecu-
tor went to the home of the defend-
ant’s parents in the late evening of
March 30th, or early morning of
March 31st, and went into the cellar |
and found this defendant and two
other young men, and that he saw
them drinking; that the liauid was
in two glasses, which he, the prosecu-
tor, puored back into the bottle, and
claims he read a search warrant
which he had for the purpose of
searching the premises. The defend-
ant... and his witnesses swore that
they asked the prosecutor to produce
his warrant, if he had any, and read
it, but the prosecutor read no war-
rant, or said that he had a warrant
until towards the end of the contro-
versy when he pulled out a paper,
yellow in color. The defendant
reached for it and got hold of a piece
of it and the prosecutor claims that
e¢fendant tore the search war-
g jury rendered a verdict on
ernoon of not guilty and
ty to pay the costs.
ionwealth vs. C. T. Corman,
indicted for resisting an officer. Pros-
ecutor, A. E. Yougel, of State College.
This case grows out of the former
case and verdict rendered of guilty
of resisting an officer.
The list was completed yesterday
and court adjourned until next Mon-
day, when the civil list will be taken
up.
FRANK B. PARKS VICTIM
OF GUNSHOT WOUND.
Frank B. Parks is a patient in the
Centre County hospital suffering wita
a serious gunshot wound in the abdo-
men, which is ascribed by local
authorities who have been investiga-
ting the shooting to an accidental af-
fair.
Parks, who is a son of Mr. and Mrs.
James Parks, is about 37 years old,
is married and the father of six
children. They have been living on
the Armstrong farm, along the Jack-
sonville road, but were getting ready
to move from there when the shoot-
ing occurred between ten and eleven
o'clock on Monday morning.
Parks was brought to the Centre
County hospital where an investiga-
tion showed that the bullet from a
38 calibre revolver had entered the
body almost in the centre of the ab-
domen and physicians considered it a
very serious wound. But instead of
sinking the victim has been showing
improvement and the outcome of the
case is still in doubt.
Circumstances surrounding the
shooting are rather vague. No two
witnesses of the accident have the
same version as to exactly how it
happened.
YOUTH KILLED IN
AUTO ACCIDENT.
Frank Hoover, fifteen year old son
of John Hoover, of Sandy Ridge, was
instantly killed in an auto collision
his father, and uncle, Wilmer Hoover,
a brother and Charles Vaughn, were
returning home from a fishing trip.
On the bridge over Bald Eagle
creek, near the tea room, the Hoover
car was side-swiped by an automobile
driven by George F. Frain, of War-
riorsmark. Both cars were badly
wrecked. Young Hoover died as the
result of a fractured skull, while all
the others escaped with minor in-
juries. An inquest held by coroner
W. R. Heaton declared the accident
unavoidable. The unfortunate vic-
tim of the accident was buried in the
Umbria cemetery, at Osceola Mills,
on Tuesday afternoon.
CENTRE HALL BOY
MEETS TRAGIC DEATH.
James Wesley Mowery, son of Mr.
and Mrs. John W. Mowery, of Centre
Hall, and who was a hospital appren-
tice on the U. S. ship Richmond, was
instantly killed on May 10th when a
motorcycle he was riding on a trip
from New York to Philadelphia col-
lided with an automobile. The ship
had only recently returned to New
York from a cruise in southern wa-
ters and the young apprentice had
been granted a few days furlough to
i visit friends in Philadelphia, and was
his death.
Mowery was within one day of be-
ing twenty-two years old and had
only twenty-one more days to serve
to complete his four years term of
enlistment. In addition to his par-
ents he is survived by the following
Mrs. Edward Weaver and Mrs.
Charles Krebs, of State College; Mrs
Charles Markle, of Pleasant Gap;
Eugene, Anna, William, Harold, Ken-
|neth and Martha at home. The re-
mains were sent to Centre Hall where
burial was made.

St. John’s Catholic church are con-
ducting in the Knights of Columbus

A remarkable coincidence in
the death, during the week, of two
well known Bellefonte women, Mrs.
Frank Montgomery and Mrs. Charles
Smith, is the fact that their husbands
passed away within twenty-four
hours, just twenty years ago, Mr.
Smith dying on April 23rd, 1909, and
Mr. Montgomery on April 24th.

He urged tolerance. He stressed the
importance of playing the pal to

Referring to Americanization and to
Americanism, he declared that all
undesirable foreigners should be sent
back to their own countries. Men’s

world tolerance in politics, business,
society, and religion. The world to-
day is hungering for kind thoughts,
