of the Wayne county teachers opened
Its sessions very auspiciously In tho

the teachers to do their part by

Rev. W. H. Hiller, D. JO., led the
devotional exercises. J. H. Kennedy
and Mark Creasy were elected vice
presidents and the treasurer. Miss
Vera Murray reported a balance of
$205.15 In the treasury.
The first talk was given by Prof.
Ira Woods Howerth, of Chicago Uni
versity, on "The Artist Teacher."
Booker T. Washington has said: "An
education is a conquest not a be
quest. There are several view points
of education. I shall consider it
from the view point of "Education
as an art. It is an art, those who
practice education are artists. We
are all artists to some degree. I
shall speak of the artist who Is par
ticularly skillful. An Ideal Is of
greater value than most people are
willing to admit. Tho business man
who Is successful has a definite ideal
of his business and adapts his efforts
to this Ideal. Tho greatest demand
of these modern times Is a definite
Ideal of our work to encourage our
efforts and stimulate our hopes. It
Is possible for the artist teacher to
leave a monument more wonderful
than the sculptor; he can help build
beautiful characters. Here are a few
things to acquire which will bring
you success: A strong physical abil
ity, which is the basis of success. An
already accumulated amount of
knowledge, Is a necessity. Tho ap
plication of this knowledge or skill
Is the next element of success, and
the last without which no artist Is
highly successful, a delight in his
art. Have a deep abiding love and
Interest In your work. If you have
not this love or Interest cultivate It.
If you don't like your 'Work perform
It conscientiously and your dislike
will disappear. Love comes from
service. If you don't like children
serve them faithfully and you will
develop a sincere Interest In them
and love for them.
Dr. C. T. Farlane, Columbia Uni
versity, was the second speaker; his
subject, "Unity of Geography." One
of the things that the artist teacher
of Geography wants to know Is Geo
graphy. Tho subject stands as a
single unit not In groups as so of-1 there was a reception to depositors

the absence of their father, who was
in Honesdale, is a profound mystery.
According to Fred Hunkele he
came to Honesdale Thursday after
noon with a load of fish, apples and
potatoes. After disposing of most of;
his produce In
tho usual manner,
Mr. Hunkele arranged to stay over
night at John Heumann's restaurant.
He got up about nine or ten o clock 1 hour being about 4:30 p. m. Sat

him and told him "that his son Ed

tried to find Charley. After he saw
Edward dead he thought Charley 1
might have killed him, as the broth-
ers were fighting all the time. He '
Immediately telegraphed his
wife 1
who was visiting relatives In
New ,
Haven, Conn., that their son was
dead.
County Detectlvo N. B. Spencer
was Informed of the tragic events at
the Hunkele farm, and In company
with a representative of this paper,
went to White Mills on the 2:50 p.
m. train.
i They found, four marks on Ed
wards hands, and his hands wero
partially closed. It looked as If In
his death throes ho had dug his fin
ger nails Into his hands. His shirt
was open and there was a mark
across his breast. These were the
only bruises to be seen on tho body.
His cap was on his head.
Charley, whose body was discov
ered on Saturday morning at 11:30
o'clock under the bed, lay with his
head down on a pillow. His body
was drawn together and It looked as
If he had died in awful agony. His
face was black as coal. The under
taker had difficulty in getting the
body into anp.-t of shape.

repeating over and over again. In
talking to the newspaper men, doubt
less referring to tho cost of burying
the sons, "I haven't done nothing.
I oughtn't to be afraid. Its too
bad. It's a mystery," continued
Hunkele, Sr., in trying to account
for the sudden death of bis sons.
Dr. Gavltte, when Interviewed,
could not account for the way In
which the boys had met their death.
Ho did not think It .was caused by
carbolic acid or strychnine, and so
far as he could see there wero no
outward signs of poison.
Mrs, Addle Gibbs camo down to
tho Hunkele farm to do the cleaning
after Edward's body had been dis
covered at Hunkelo's request. She
went up stairs to get a razor for the
undertaker in ordsr that ho could
shave Edward. As she went by
Charley's room, she saw something
protruding from tho bed, and ran
downstairs screaming, "Charley is
under tho bed," and fainted away.
Tho Dorflinger auto brought
'Squire Robert A. Smith, and Dis
trict Attorney M. E. Simons to tho
scene of tho tragedy about four
o'clock Saturday aftornoon.
A hearing was held and the fol
lowing facts wero brought out:

Gibbs, Constable Schlosser, Morris
Evans, W. B. Ammerman and Dr. E.
B. Gavltte.
Mr. Hunkelo who has lived on the
farm In Palmyra township for twelve
years, testified as follows:
Hunkelo's Testimony.
I left home about 1:30 Thursday
for Honesdale and did not get homo I
until Friday afternoon. I did not;
know anything about my son's aeatli
until Thomas Gill told me there had
been some bad actions at my home,
that my son, Edward, had been found
dead In tho barn. I telephoned to
Mr. Ammerman, Hawley, and tele
graphed for my wife to come home.
Charles could be found nowhere and
I thought he had ran away and was
probably In the woods. Before go
ing to Honesdale, Thursday, we had
dinner together and my sons seem -
ed as healthy then as they had at
any time. I told them to dig up tho
turnips and place them in the barn.
They did their work all right. I
went to bed about 11 o'clock Friday
night and left the side door unlocked
so 'Charles conld get In If he came
home. I was afraid of Charles. I
never whipped him but would often
scold him. Ho had threatened me
and some times has thrown axes at
me In the woodB. About eight years
ago he hit me In the neck with a
club which hurts yet. I looked for
Charles, blew the horn, but he
didn't come. There were seven who
helped look for Chas. Friday night.
A few wero William Smith, Peter
Mauer, Morris Evans and W. J.
Smith. Looked through the house
from cellar to garret and went to
tho hay mow In the barn In search
of him. Thursday afternoon I ped
dled fish In Honesdale to McArdlo's,
Heumann's nnd O'Connell's; sold
some apples to Mrs. Demor. Stay
ed with Mr. Houmann Thursday
night.
Friday night I stayed in tho house
all alone and did not hear Charles
ocmo In. Didn't sleep very good;
was thinking over some matters qulto
awhile. Thought Charles would
freezo to death If ho was In tho
woods as ho had only ono shoe on.
Tho other shoo, a new one, with his
stocking was In his bedroom on tho
floor. He would often tako off his
shoes in tho winter tltno and cross
tho brook for spring water. Ho
didn't know any better. I novor
chastised him. Can't remember If
I ever hit Charles with a hoo. Had
a quarrel about six days ago with
the boys about pulling turnips. I
wanted them to pull tho big ones and
they pulled all, little and big. I
didn't punish them for It. A short
tlmo ago after they had dug tho po
tatoes Edward and Charles wont
away and Edward was gono a half
day and Charles a day and a half.
They slept in a barn and they loft
all tho potatoes out and they woro
frozen, I scolded them and they
told mo to go to H My wife,
who Is away, didn't object much to
have tho boys around. I wanted to
got rid of Charles as ho was acting
crazy nt times. I wanted to get him
In an asylum and spoko to Mr. GUI
about It. I wanted to put him in tho
poor houso, ho was flghtng most of
the tlmo and called his brother bad
names.
"Which ono did you think tho most
of," tho District Attorney asked.
"Both were all right to me. I
think Edward wns the best, for I
could send him on errands. The
other had no brains."
When 1 left for Honcsdalo I told
Edward to go to Mr. Smith's and
get a soup bone. I left some pork
chops and fish for them.
Boys Ate US Bushels of Potatoes.
They had enough to cat and I
novor found fault with them. They
lived here all alone last winter and
they ato 38 bushels of potatoes. I
had a store In Honesdale but came
down once a week to see them. One
time I brought down 25 pounds of
cornbeef and two days afterward the
meat was gone. Charles has
threatened Edward with an axe and
ho was afraid of him. Edward never
talked about killing hmself. The
boys wero not tired of living. They
wero boss here.
Have had no poison In the house
since three years ago, when my wife
bought some rat poison. The boys
wouldn't take poison. Why should
they?
Mrs. Gibbs on tho Stand.
Mrs. Addle Gibbs took the stand
and said: I am no relation of Mr.
Fred Ilunkelc. I came down the
towpath Friday. First came to tho
house on Friday afternoon about
1:30, as Mr. Hunkele asked me to
come down and do the housework
while he was away. When I got
through sweeping the house I clean
ed up and went home. I returned
Saturday morning about 8 o'clock
and have been here ever since. I
went to Charles' bedroom door,
Tif rt w no ntinn nrwl on r e nm li I r er
under the Ded ' j dont know wnr
It was. I don't know how I got down
stairs. When I first came here there
were three glasses, a syrup cup, sau
cer and pepper dish on the table.
There was nothing on the Btovo.
Constable Schlosser sworn. When
t caw RdwnrH Hnnkoln In hU In
banda were crosseu and hla Bn,'rt was
opened. Blood was on his hand.
This was at 10:30 Friday morning.
Then made search for tho other
I brother. Searched house from cel-
lar to garret, went In every room that
! had a door. Looked under the bed
and he was not there. The bed
j quilt that was on the floor this
morning was folded up and on the
l bed Friday night. There was no
body there then.
Morris Evnns Testifies.
Morris Evans testified as follows:
I Came here about 7 o'clock Friday
night and stayed until 11:30. Mr
Hunkele was here all the time but
he did not enter Into the search. We
looked through the house, back of the
house and In the barn. Peter Mauer
and W. J. Smith helped In the
search. Mr. Mauer asked Mr. Hunk'
ele If he were not afraid to stay
alono all night in the house, to which
he replied he supposed ho had to
, stay that he couldn't help himself.
W. B. Ammerman sworn: I live in
Hawley and am a justice and also
an undertaker. I came up here to
hold an Inquest over the body of Ed
ward Hunkele. Found the remains
In the barn. He was lying on his
back In a natural position. Con
stable Schlosser and myself examln
ed the body, but found no marks of
any kind, except a few scratches up
on his left hand. After the examina
tion we brought the remains to the
house. I camo up again Saturday
morning to prepare the body for
burial and while here Mrs. Gibbs
camo down stairs screaming that
Charlie was dead under tho bed
Mr. Austin came down tho same
time and also said Charles was dead
Thero was no trouble to see tho body
as I entered tho room. Tho head ap
peared to be burled In tho pillow
and his hands were drawn up to his
face. Rigor mortis had set In.
Poison n Possibility.
Dr. E. B. Gavltte, White Mills, tes
tilled as follows: Have been n prac
tlsing physician since 1897. Ex
nmlned the bodies of Edward and
Charles Hunkele but discovered no
ovldence of tho cause of death
From tho condition of tho bodies
death probably resulted from some
form of poisoning. Thero was no
outsldo cnuso to determine. It Is
necessary to hold an autopsy or post
mortem examination to ascertain tho
causo of death.
Autopsy Held Saturday.
On Sunday Dr. Arthur J. Wilson,
State Hospital pathologist, of Scran
ton, assisted by Dr. F. W. Fox, of tho
same city, and Dr. E. B. Gavltte, of
White Mills, conducted a post mor
tem. District Attorney Simons and
County Detectlvo Spencor were also
present. Tho vital organB of both
men wore removed and taken to
Scranton. Tho rosult of death will
not bo determined until Tuesday,
when It Is expected tho examination
will havo been completed.
A Familiar Figure.
Hunkelo Is a familiar figure In
Honesdale. It was a very common
occurrence for him to appear on the
streets around four o'clock In tho
morning and awaken people by
shouting "Fresh meat. Hunkolo's
here. Everybody get up!"
No report of tho result of tho au
topsy is obtainable at tho tlmo tho
C1TJZEN Is going o press. Three
days at least are required, In New
York city oven, until a definite analy
sis of tho vital organs can be mado
nnd verified.
In the meantime Hunkele, Sr., Is
held In $500 ball, awaiting further
developments.
A startling rumor was circulated
In Honesdalo Tuesday morning that
Hunkele, Sr., had committed suicide.
The CITIZEN however was Informed
at 11 a. m. that such was not tho
case, Mr. Hunkele, having been seen
early In tho morning In White Mills
driving a load of coal. Some sen
sational developments are promised
In the ense, and authentic Inside In
formation from reliable sources is at
hand which dare not be published
until the proper time arrives.
Did tho brothers Hunkele die of
ptomaine poisoning? This theory
of the sudden death of the Hunkelo
brothers Is being advanced. It Is
known that they ate a good deal of
canned goods at the Hunkele home
stead. Hunkele, Sr., himself is said
to have remarked that "this boy
(moaning Edward) will have to bo
cut open to find out what is the mat
ter with him."
