message the governor says:
II wish to assure you that the execu-
tive authority of the state will support,
you in your efforts to eXpunge from the
good name of Ripley county and of orr
honored state this stigma that has been
brought out through the act of mob vio.
lence, and that the perpetrators of this
diabolical crime shall be brought to JUS

Persons in Versailles know the lynch
ers." said he, 'but they will not tell you
and they will not tell me the names of
the men, but they will tell the grand
jury. We already have the names of
some of the men who participated in the
affair. The best information I could
obtain convinces me that there were not
to succeed twelve men who actually par
ticipated in the lynching; they are from
Osgood. with two possible exceptions"
Mr.. Moores says the lynchers carried
six ropes to the Jail. intending to use all
of them. but the sixth intended victim
had beer. released from the Jail
"They had undoubtedly intended to
lynch four more men," said he. 'but the
plans were abandoned after Judge New

vestigation. The grand jury is made up
of six men of good character. and feel
confident that they are men who will
not hesitate to return indictments if they
can obtain the names of the men who

REMARKABLE RECOVERY.
MIR. THEO. ROZIENE, STRICKEN
WITH PARALYSIS, NOW
NEARLY WELL.
DR.. j. j. McKanna's Treatment for
the Cure of Certain Chronic
Diseases is Meeting With
Wonderful Success.

Mr.. Theo Roziene, who was lately
stricken with paralysis and taken home
in carriage helpless, was called upon
yesterday at his residence, at 300 Santa
Clara street, and interviewed by re-
porter of the Express. Mr.. Roziene
had been walking about the house and
was much pleased over the prospect of
regaining his health and faculties. He
is not we'll man yet but is on the road
to rapid recovery.
Mr.. Rozene is widely known. having
been identified for many years with the
upbuilding and progress of San Antonio
and this section of the state. He was
the first man in this city to engage in
the abstract business. He started this
business in 1919 and continues it yet; his
office being in the kampmann building.
Mr. Roziene said: 81 believe have been
threatened with paralysis for the past
five years. During this time at inter-
walls L have felt premonitions of it in
sharp, shooting pains and numbness,
but have been successful heretofore in
preventing it. About six weeks ago /
felt the forerunner of the attack, and
week ago last Saturday the attack came
upon me suddenly and left me helpless.
was taken home in carriage and a
physician was called. He did me no
good. and having heard much of DR.. J.
j. Mckanna'S success in treating par
alysis he was sent for. The success of
his treatment is quite wonderful. The
dreaded disease that renders people help
less for years until death puts an end to
their sufferings quickly yields to DR. Nc
kanna's skill. A week ago Saturday /
was helpless. / had no power to move
my right arm and right leg. If wished
to move my right arm to another posi-
ton in the bed would have to do so by
taking hold of it with the other hand.
After a few days of this doctors treat
ment | could get out of bed and dress
myself. and this morning, as you see,
while l do not move about as freely as
YOU do, am quite confident l will in a
short time"
The success this physician has had in
the treatment of Mr.. Roziene and other
we'll known men in this city and various
parts of the state speaks sufficiently for
his skill and the great value of his rem
edies. DIR. McKanna is specialist in
the treatment of paralysis, govt, nervous
prostration, dropsy, the liquor and NOR
phine habits. His sanitarinm on River
avenue is well appointed, a delightful
home for patients who live with the
family until cured The down town
ofhces are in the Clifford building.-San
Antonio Express.
