CLARENCE IP
SENTENCED
After a little over an hour's delib
eration yesterday the jury in the case
of Commonwealth vs. J. H. Ethworth,
Samuel Dunmoyer ami William E.
Pensyl, in which the charge was con
spiring to steal a horse, returned a
verdict of guilty, convicting each of
the defendants as in manner and form
indicted. During the afternoon Eth
worth and Dunmoyer were sentenced,
each to two years in the Eastern pen
itentiary. in me case of Pensyl sent
ence was suspended pending argument
for a new trial.
CONSPIRACY CASE RESUMED.
Wednesday morning the case of Com
monwealth vs. J. H. Ethworth, Sam
uel Dunmoyer and William E. Pensyl
was resumed. The testimouv was com
pleted on Tuesday evening aud foi the
first thing yesterday morning the at
torneys for the defense,of which there
were three, went to the jury.
Charles V. Anierman, attorney for
Pensyl, made the first plea. He ad
dressed himself especially to the task
of clearing Pensyl, holding that the
latter was the unfortunate victim of
circumstances and was not a party to
conspiracy. The effect of his plea was
much enhanced by Pensyl s wife aud
little daughter, who sat by the side of
the defendant weeping bitterly.
Ralph Kisner,attorney for Ethworth,
next went to the jury. He urged that
no conspiracy was shown. He admit
ted that Ethworth might have been
guilty of receiving goods under false
pretenses, an ottense, however, which
did not figure in the indictment, but
that tie could not be convicted of con
spiracy.
William Kase West, who seemed to
represent the whole group of defend
ants, made the last plea, which was
brief, merely insisting that the court
charee tlie|jury that no conspiracy ex
isted.
Itfwas shortly after 10 o'clock when
Hon. H M. Hinckley went to the jury
for the Commonwealth. He made a
strong and characteristic plea. He pre
faced his address by a humorous al
lusion to the multiplicity of attorneys
for defendants and [their apparently
conflicting interests He said that
each one of the several lawyers em
ployed seemed willing that tke other
two defendants should be considered
guilty and maae a scape goat, only so
that the one that he represented might
be acqumeo. Mr. Hinckley insisted
that a conspiracy existed aud that all
three of the defendants were properly
charged, reviewing the evidence in
detail to show that Pensyl was in as
deep as any of them. He spoke for ov
er half an hour.
Judge Evans' charge was very clear
and impartial. He defined conspiracy
and submitted the evidence.
At 11 o'clock the jury retired, the
twelve men were as follows: Jesse
Klase, Michael Riley, Jacob Dietz,
Jesse Umstead, Jonathan Stahl, Granr
Fenstermacher, C. O. Moyer, Michael
Breckbill, George P. Cotner, Robert
Adams, John H. Garnett, Harry El
lenbogen.
CLARENCE CARR.
Shortly after 11 o'clock the case of
Commonwealth vs. Clarence Carr was
attached, which was the last case on
the Commonwealth list. The charge
was homicide, the defendant, it will
be recalled, being accused of causing
the death of little George Fausnaught
by pushing him into a deep pool iu
the dismantled steel plant on the af
ternoon of July 18th last. A true bill
was returned and a plea of "not
guilty" entered at the previous ses
sion of court.
When the case was attached yester
day, Ralph Eisner, attorney for Clar
ence^Carr, "explained to the court'that
after due deliberation and acting on
advice of others, lie had decided to as
sume the responsibility of withdraw
ing the plea of "not guilty" aud to
ask that a plea of guilty in a lesser de
gree than homicide be entered. He
explained that the case was a sad one
and that the youthful defendant was
entitled to the fullest measure of con
sideration and mercy. His mother is a
patient at the hospital for the insane.
The boy is not yet 16 years of age and
his education and training have been
sadly neglected.
Mr. Eisner said he believed that he
should be restrained. He was fearful
that, if tried on the charge of liotn
icide, the boy might be acquitted and
he doubted whether he was fit togo
free, as he might be tempted into the
commission of some act similar to the
one of which he is accused. He,
therefore, asked that the plea be
changed to one of guilty in lesser de
gree than charged in the indictment
and the boy be committed to some re
formatory institution,where he would
receive proper training.
The court called upon the district
attorney, who agreed to the modifica
tion of the plea aud the whole plan as
proposed by Mr. Kisner. On motion,
therefore, the court agreed to suspend
seutence on the plea entered and an
nounced that the matter would be fin
ally disposed of during the afternoon.
In the meantime it was decided to
hear some testimony on the case for
the enlightenment of the court
George Fausnaught, the father of
the little victim, Officer Voris, Ralph
Himes, Roy Earp, and Willie Faus
naught, were called to the stand. The
details of the sad affair are well known
to our readers There was au element
of deep pathos in the testimony of lit
tle" Gus "Earp, ten years of age. He
said that George Fausnaught was sit
ting or stooping near the edge of the
deep "soaking pit", when Clarence
Carr stole up behind him, and seizing
him by the ankles, threw him forward
and headfirst down into the water.
Little George sank and then rose,sink
iug again. The drowning boy, when
he oame to the surface was "black and '
blue" in the faco. Carr, he said, made
no attempt to assist him, but only
laughed. The witness said that he told
Carr that he was going "to tell on
him," but that Carr told him that if
he did so he "would smash his face."
The result of this threat was that the
little boy kept the dreadful secret
locked up in his bosom until the next
morning, when lie told his mother all
about it.
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
For the first thing in the afternoon
Clarence Carr was called before the
court. The boy, notwithstanding the
neglect to which he has been subject
ed, is by no means repelling in appear
ance. He has been in jail since last
July and he shows the effect of long
confinement. Jud«e Evans told him
that for the offense to which he had
pleaded guilty he could send him to
the penitentiary for twenty years, but
lie did not believe that such a sent
ence would be for his best interest.
He,therefore, had decided to give him
a chance to make a niau of himself.
The sentence of the court was as fol
lows :
Now January 1*», 1907, the court
sentences the defendant, Clarence
C-irr, to pay the costs of prosecution
aud to be committed to the care and
guardianship of the managers of the
Pennsylvania Industrial Reformatory
at Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, there
to be kept, fed and clothed and treated
as the law directs and to stand com
mitted until the sentence of the court
is complied with. By the court,
Charles C. Evans, P. J.
The court informed Clarence Carr
that lie would be likely to remain at
the reformatory for at least ten vears.
CONSPIRACY VERDICT.
The jury in the case of Common
wealth vs. J. H. Ethworth, Samuel
Dunmoyer and William E. Pensyl,
which went out about 11 o'clock,
agreed upon a verdict between 12 and
I. The verdict was sealed and the
jurymeu went out for their dinners.
When the ease of Clarence Carr was
disposed of the prothonotary was di
rected to take the verdict.
Each of the defendants were found
guilty as in manuer and form indict
ed, William E. Pensyl being recom
mended to the mercy of the court.
Charles V. Amerman, attorney for
Pensyl, moved for an arrest of judg
ment aud a new trial, reasons to be
filed within a specified time. The
court appointed Saturday afternoon
next at 3 o'clock as time for argument.
Ethworth was then called up for
sentence. He was asked by the court
if he had anything to say. He replied,
"nothing except to ask for mercy."
The Judge continued :
The sentence of the court is that
you, J H. Ethworth pay the cost of
prosecution, a fine of $ 100 to the Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania for the
use of Montour county, and that yon
undergo an imprisonment in the East
ern peniteutiary at Philadelphia for a
period of two years to be computed
from this date, at separate and solit
ary confinement, at labor, and stand
committed until the sentence is com
plied with. The sheriff to conduct yon
thence in ten days.
Samuel Dunmoyer was then called
before court. In reply to a question
from the judge he said he had noth
ing to sav except that he was "not
guilty." He was also given two years
in the Eastern penitentiary at separ
ate aud solitary confinement at labor,
his sentence in all respects being sim
ilar to that of Ethworth.

A RAZOR'S EDGE.
Itrault* That Come From Stropping
unci lionK I »e.
Very thin is the edge of a razor blades
Its thickness has been estimated ai
about one half millionth of an inch,
A writer says of this wonderfully thin
bit of steel, when seen under a power
ful microscope: "The extreme edge of
the section is distinctly bent to one
side. This is nearly always seen in
razor edges. The actual bend repre
sents the effect of the last stroke on
the strop which this blade has received.
Now, this bending of the metal quite
near the edge, minute as it is, has some
very important practical consequences.
If the razor be used in such a way
that the bend Is toward the skin there
will be a tendency for the edge itself
to burrow downward into the skin, in
stead of sliding easily over the surface
and merely cutting away the project
ing hairs. If, on the other hand, the
blade be applied to the face in such a
way that the bend of the edge Is away
from the skin the edge will slide much
more smoothly, with less tendency to
cut or scratch the skin, while it will
act upon the hairs in a slightly upward
directiou and thus tend to pull them
tight while cutting. The direction of
the bend of the edge can be regulated
by the last few strokes on the strop.
"This minute amount of bending un
dergone by the metal near the edge of
a razor blade has another practical re
sult. We all know that a piece of wire
which will quite easily stand being
bent double will lie broken If it be bent
backward and forward many time's.
What really takes place is that the
metal, which was strong and ductile
to begin with. Is gradually made hard
and brittle and then finally breaks off.
Now, the metal near the edge of a
razor is beiug subjected to very similar
treatment. Every turn on the strop
reverses the direction of the bend near
the edge, and, although the amount of
bendlug is too slight ever to bring
about actual breakage of such an
elastic metal as hardened steel, It is
yet sufficient to bring about a change
in the metal whicli renders it less
elastic and able to stand the strain.
Tills is why a razor which has been
used long ceases to <'ut well or to hold
n good edge.
"Now It lias been discovered that
steel which lias lost its proper elastic
qualities by such a process of 'fatigue,'
as It Is called, is capable of recovering
its good qualities under favorable cir
cumstances. It will recover in this
way if left at rest, though this Is a
comparatively slow process, which ex
plains the fact that a tool which has
become useless through continued use
will be as g mhl as ever after a prolong
ed res'. But recovery will take place
much more rapidly if the sieel be
warmed, so that a few minutes' expo
sure to the temperature of boiling wa
ter will bring about recovery to an ex
tent that would have required seveial
days" rest at the ordinary tempera
turf'! This fact explains the advantage
to be derived from the familiar prac
tice of 'steaming' a razor before use."
l)on't Starve Vour llird.
It is a common mistake to think that
pets can only be taught when hungry
and to commence a bird's training by
depriving It of breakfast, dinner or
supper Is a most unhappy beginning.
Iu reality the feathered folk are Just
as apt ami full of fun after a comfort
able meal as before it.and to starve,
scold or otherwise ill treat the little
creature will usually render it too un
happy to learn quickly If at all. Birds
are extremely nervous beings. They
love a low. quiet voice and gentle
movements—love to be talked to, coax
ed and made much of. If the pet Is a
new one and seems specially excitable
or timid, you will have to teach it first
of all not to fear you. Any little games
he Is to learn must be acquired after
