FOUND GUILTY.
William Reed Convicted Of Murder in
the First Degree in Court at Cham.
berSbnrg Last Week.
SENTENCE DEFERRED FIFTEEN DAYS.

William Reed is AZ years of agc
and unmarried. lie served 3:
months IN the U. S. army in the
Philippines. After his return
from the army he was employed
at the shops IN Waynesboro peri
of the time, and part of the time
worked at the Mont Alto Fores
try Academy.
Mrs. Sarah @. Mathna, o
"grasswldow" with one child,
was domestic in the kitchen OF
the Mont Alto Foresty Academy.
About three years ago Reed
and Mrs. Mathna became ac,
qualnted, that acquaintance soon
ripened into closer friendship,
and for a time they lived togeth-
er as hus band and wife. Tlring
of this, Mrs. Mathna went back
to the kitchen of the Forestry
Academy, and William made 1t a
point to call on Mrs. Mathna fre.
quently. Last spring William
became impressed with the
thought that Sadie was not true
to him, and that she perhaps had
others on the string. He went
away and got on a drunk that
lasted II week or more, and then
on the ninth of last May, secured
a revolver, went to the kitchen
where Mrs. Mathna was grinding
coffee for breakfast, and after
having exchanged a few words
with her, fired three shots into
her body, and then with the
smoking revolver in his hand,
left her writing IN the agonies
of death on the kitchen floor, and
went out and gave himself up IN.
TO the hands of his uncle who was
a constable.
From that day he has been in
the Jail atCham bersburg charged |
with the murder of Mrs. Mathna.
Last week, he was tried IN Court,
and on Sunday evening, the jury
returned a verdict of murder IN
the first degree. Sentence has
been deferred tor fifteen days,
but it Is very probable that he
will be hanged.

lie Delivered The Goods.

The following is clipped from
the Tyrone (Pa.) Herald of the
9Th inst:
''lIon. Harry A. Thompson,
past grand chancellor, Knights
of Pythlas, has received still an
other beautiful token of the high
regard his Pythian brethren have
for our husthng townsman.
Some days ago Mr.. Thompson re
ceived the very pleasant surprise
by express and he was shocked,
but very agreeably, on opening
the huge box to find that it con-
tanned a handsome mahogany
chest upon the lid of which was
a gold plate with this inscription;
"Presented to Grand Chancellor
Harry A. Thompson by Pythian
friends at grand lodge session,
Erie, Pa, August II, 1911" The
lid was lifted and tastefully dis
played therein was a complete
set of solid sllverware. This, IN
with the handsome
leather chair, massive loving cup,
etc, Is surely evidence that Mr..
Thompson delivered the goods
while in office, and enjoys a wide
circle of friends"

Home on FurIOugh.

Dorsey L. Peck, son OF John
W. Peck, of McConnellsburg, is
home on an eight-day furlough.
Mr.. Peck entered the Navy In
1908, and is attached to the first
class battleship Idaho, which,
with The Name, Mississippi and
Missouri, form the Third Divls-
ION of the Atlantic Squadron-the
Missouri beng the flagship.
During his apprenticeship Mr..
Peck has visited France, Eng
land, and many distant ports of
the United States. The entire
fleet is expected to leave about
January lst, for Australia.
The sailor life and rigid dlscip.
line seems to agree with Dorsey,
and he recommends the sea to
any one seeking health.

Hills Seem Higller.

Mr.. and Mrs. John A. Hoke, OF
Watseka, ILL.,, are visiting IN the
family of Mr.. Hoke's uncle, G..
Newton Hoke on west Water
street. MIR. Hoke is son of the
late Henry Hoke, who during the
CiYil War was proprietor of the
Fulton House in this place, and
at one time owned the Jared Pitt.
man farm south of town. Mr..
Hoke left McConnellsburg IN
1864 and this is his first visit to
his old home since that date.
Among the many changes that
have taken place since that time,
none are more noticeable to Mr..
Hoke than the apparent increase
IN the height of the hills and
mountains. He was not a little
surprised to find that there was
any grade IN the street running
eastward from the Bridge at the
west end of town. This modif.
cation of Mr., Hoke's recollection
of the topograpy of the town and
surroundings comes from the
fact that he has lived on the
prairles during the past AZ years.
Mr.. Hoke Is now a retired farm
er.
