GAVE HIMSELF Up.
Finley McWiggins Says He Has Been
Forging Checks
Upon Various Parties in Cadiz, o.,
and Vicinity-Has Been Dodging
Officers for Some Time-Went to
the City Hall Last Night and
Stood Around for Quite Time
Waiting to Be Arrested.

Last night young man, who said
his name was Finley McWiggin, and
who gave his age as twenty-seven
years, went to the City Hall, and
after hanging around in the corridor
near police headquarters for quite a
while, mustered up courage enough to
so inside and give himself up.
The fellow, who was fairly we'll
dressed, but who gave the impression
that he was just a little unbalanced
mentally, said he had once served a
term in the Ohio penitentiary for
robbery. He said that recently he had
been at Cadiz and vicinity, and that
while there he had forged the names
of several people, including DR.. S. B.
McGavern, to checks, one of which he
had passed at Uhrichsville. This was
a week or so ago, and he said that
since that time he had been in mental
torture, imagining every time he saw
an officer that he was about to be ar
rested or that the officers were look
ing for him. He stood this sort OF
thing in Ohio for some time, and then
came to this side of the river, but his
villiany still pursued him, and he de-
| termined last evening, to come to this
city and give himself up to the Off
GERS. He said he was perfectly will
ing to go back and stand whatever
punishment would be meted out to
! him.
The fellow was locked up, and his
case will be further investigated this
morning by the authorities.

About half-past three o'clock yester-
day afternoon the jury in the case of
State v. James Edward Jones, indicted
for the murder of little Stanley Mason,
at Moundsville, last July, came into
Court with verdict of murder in the
first degree, and recommended that the
punishment be imprisonment for life in
the penitentiary. Counsel for the defense
interposed no objection in the way of
passing sentence, and Judge PAUL gave
sentence accordingly.
The conclusion of the jury appears
to meet with public approval in Mar
shall county, and the defendant was
take to the penitentiary last night
When Court opened yesterday morn
ing J. Alexander Ewing, for the defense,
made his argument to the jury, conclud-
ing his remarks Of the day before. He
made the best possible presentation of
his side of the case, and was listened to
by jury and spectators with the closest
attention. During his discussion OF the
case Mr.. Ewing attacked the statements
of several witnesses, particularly the
evidence Of Burley.
Congressman B. B. Dovener made the
closing argument for the State, his pre-
sentation of the case being a strong
and vigorous one, and at times, and
particularly in his closing sentences, he
was eloquent and forceful to an unusual
degree. The arguments were concluded
about noon, and at the afternoon ses-
sion the Judge delivered the instruc-
tons, and the jury went out, returning
at the time mentioned with the verdict
of guilty.

Is IT CURABLEP
A Question often Asked BY Those Anicted
With Piles

With Piles.
Is strained joint durable? Is local
inflammation durable? OF course, II
properly treated. So is piles.
People often become afflicted with
piles and ask some old chronic" who
has always persisted in the wrong
treatment and naturally he discourages
them by telling them that their case is
hopeless.
They in turn discourage others, and
thus a disease that can in every case
be cured by careful and skillful hand
ling is allowed to sap the energy OF
thousands who might free themselves
of the trouble in a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most
aggravated case Of hemorrhoids in an
astonishingiy short time. 1t relieves
the congested parts, reduces the tumors
instantly, no matter how large, allays
the inflammation and stops the aching
or itching at once.
Thousands who had resorted to ex-
pensive surgical treatment have been
cured by the Pyramid Pile Cure-in
number Of instances persons who had
spent months in a hospital under pile
specialist.
1t is a remedy that none need feaI
to apply even to the most aggravated
swollen and in famed hemorrhoidal tu-
morS.
If you are afflicted with the stubborn
disease you can master it and master
it quickly.
This remedy is no longer an expert
ment, but a medical certainty. 1t Is

The only non-union man who has
issued from behind the steel works en-
closure since Saturday nights disturb
ance in Bellaire is George Johnson, a
colored employee, and he is now
lodged in the lookup. He was first
seen by Officer Johnson while he was
strolling through the public park. The
officer noticed that he drew from his
hip pocket a revolver, replacing it again
when he had reached the lighted street.
The fellow continued down Belmont
street to Thirty-second street, thence
to Union and up that street to Braun

store and as the fellow was in the act
of purchasing some tobacco quickly re-

him under arrest Johnson will be ar

weapons.
The statement that the employees Of
the plate mill department of the steel
works had decided to quit work on
Friday of this week was due to misin-
formation. At meeting Of the plate
mill employees yesterday morning it was
decided that they continue to work as
usual regardless of the notification that
they were to be branded as non-union
men unless they quit work to-morro~'.
The notification was made by the COM
mittee appointed by the Belmont Cen
trail Trades and Labor Union, which ac-
tion was taken at their meeting in
Bellaire last Sunday.
