FINE DETECTIVE WORK.-Some time
ago several officers from Luray arrived
here in search of David Middleton, who
was wanted in Luray for forgery, house,
breaking and larceny, and was supposed
to be somewhere in this section. The
search was unsuccessful, aud the officers
returned, leaving the case in the hands
of chief of police e. R. O'Neal, who has
bsen quietly working on it ever since
He found that Middleton had been in
Hedgesville, and after tracing him to
various points finally located him in AL
lance, Ohio. Mr.. O'Neal went to ALI
ance last week, and with the co-opera-
ton Of chief of police T. M. Stacey, of
that city, succeeded in capturing Mid
dleton. There was with him man
named Jacob Jenkins. who was held till
inquiries were made, when it was found
that he also was wanted by the Page
county authorities for the same offense.
Chief O'Neal brought both men to Mar.
tinsburg on Sunday night and on Mon
day delivered them to the authorities in
Luray.
Mr.. O'Neal did some fine detective
work on this case and proved himself a
most efficient officer. He speaks very
highly of his courteous treatment by
Mr.. o. NJ. Coxen, Mayor, and T. M.
Stacey, Chief of Police of Alliance, who
did everything possible to assist him in
his search and made his stay in their
city most pleasant one.
