BOTH ARE IMPROVING.
Patton and Black who are SO
Badly Hurt are Doing Fair
ly Well.

Black is the Worst OF but he is Getting
Better Some Sensation has Return
ed 10 his Legislation Taken to
South Morgantown- Fogle offers to
Send them to the Hospital but neith-
viii go-The Danger is not Past by
any Means but they have Better
chance than ut First Thought.
Master Mechanic Patton and Ed
Black who were so badly injured at
lock number ten on Saturday have
been taken home and they are get
ting along as well as could be ex-
pected. In fact they are doing bet
ter than they were expected when
the accident first occurred.
Black was taken home first TO his
brothers who lives on the O. II.
Ollie farm about mile west oil town
on the West Side. He is worse hurt
than Patton but got in shape to
stand the trip first. His spinal cord
is very much affected. The spine is
twisted by the blow that he received
and his lower extremities are para
lyzed. They have lost the sensory
and motor powers although the
sense Of feeling is returning to some
extent.
Patton has been taken to Nc
Gara's in South Morgantown and be
stood the trip very well. He is very
badly hurt also and his lung is
punctured by one of the broken ribs
which he sustained. His chances
for recovery are thought to be better
than those of Black but it is very
hard to tell whether there is any diff
ference in the two men or who has
the advantage.
Mr. Fogle has offered to have the
men sent to the hospital in Pitts
burg where they can remain until
they are well or their sufferings end
ed in some other way but they are
satisfied to stay here as they can
get the very best of surgical atten
ton from the physitions an surgeons
who have charge of the cases.
The report got abroad on Satur-
day night that one of the men had
died but it was like many another
report that gets started here abso-
lutely without foundation. Every
day that they live they have more
chance of finally weathering the
storm and the chances look very
much brighter now than they did
when the accident first took place.
The two men where known are
very popular and we hope that the
wishes and prayers of their friends
may avail to restore them to health
and strength again 1t will take al
most miracle but we are prepared
for anything after some of the re-
markable recoveries which have
taken place recently here.

THREE SUCCESSFUL TESTS.
Prof. Leon Shows that there is
one Virtue in the Claims
he Makes.

William Simpson 20 Years old and
Paralytic goes to the Camp for Treat
ment and Walks home He Does not
Want to Wait for the Wagon TO Take
Him-Samuel Hayes Cured of Stiff
Knee and Runs In Front OF the Audi
ence for the First time for Two Years
Salvation Army Woman has the Use
OF her Arm Restored Inter-
est Being Taken In the Tests and the
Entertainment Furnished by the
Troupe Along With the Company.
The Medicine show which has been
exhibiting In South Morgantown is
still the topic of conversation about
town. Some say that the show IL a
fake Others that it is all right but no
matter what the idea may be about
them there is no gainsaying the fact
that some very wonderful cures have
been effected. These have been work
ed on men who are we'll known in the
town and community and what has
happened to them is known Co a great
many people. There can be no de-
ception aboutsthe matter. 1t is right
before you and you only have to. be-
lieve what you see done.
A most remarkable cure was effected
this morning. William Simpson who
has been a cripple from paralysis for
two years and scarcely able to walk
at all was operated on for the disease.
He went over insa buggy with John
Edwards and told tha latter TO come
after him in three quarters Of an hour
The Professor took the crippled
man into the private camp and began
the treatment. The arm was first
treated and in few moments sensa-
ton returned to 1t and the sufferer
was able TO give strong vigorous grip
for the first time for months.
The limb was then treated and Ia
a very short space OF time wonder
full improvement was noticeable. The
ability TO walk was regained in great
measure and SO over joyed was Mr..
Simpson that he did not wait for the
wagon to return for him but he start
ed for home by himself and walked
the entire distance with ease. He
is seventy years old and the cure
effected is truly a remarkable one. A
number Of people saw him walking
home and reported the facts to the
proprietor OF the medicine company.
Two other cases were treated on
Saturday night and they were also
successful. Samuel Hayes who has
had stiff knee for two years was
treated for twenty minutes before the
audience and at the end Of that time
ran around the stage and up and down
the steps leading to it. Four hum
dred people saw this exhibition.
A lady member of the Salvation
army was treated for stiff arm. Her
name is Hart. Within twenty min
utes after she was taken into the
private camp she could put her hand
on her head where it had not been for
two months before. This test was
made in the presence of thirty-five or
forty ladies who were invited from
the audience to witness it.
The show is a good one outside OF
the medicine features and has been
drawing large crowds. To-nighta fee
OF five cents will be charged. The at
tendance is very large and the interest
in the tests which have been applied
is steadily growing.

Icons FAMILY MEDICINE co.
A Wonderful Cure Performed on Mrs.
Eliza Sykes Of Second Street.
West Newton Gun.

Prof. Leon Tuesday night at Dick s
Opera House, in the presence of as
many people as the hall will hold, at
least $50, demonstrated the magic
power of Icons Blood Jetta Lini-
ment Mrs. Eliza Sykes, who lives
on Second street, has been a sufferer
from acute rheumatism and for two
years has been unable to walk. She
was carried from her home last night
in her chair and onto the stage. AT
ter Prof. Leon had applied his lini
ment for 20 minutes he took her by
the hand and led her back and forth
across the stage. The audience was
spellhound at the wonderful cure,
and her son, who had not seen his
mother walk for two years, was
completely overcome with joyous
emotion. There is no mistake or
humbug about this cure, as Mrs.
Sykes and her affiiction are well
known to many of the people of
West Newton.
Prot. Leon cures both rheumatism
and paralysis. Wherever he goes
he demonstrates his power to per-
form the cures he processes. A re-
markable case was that of Samuel
Sones, of Franklin borough, a suburb
of Johnstown. Mr.. Sones is 50 years
Of age and had been a hopeless Grip
pie for years. In Is minutes time
after Prof. Leon began to treat him
he threw away his cane and. like a
glad boy, fairly danced across the
stage. The following affidavit, which
we take from the Johnstown Demo-
crat, shows the reality and wonder
Of the cure:
"All that know me read this: have
had rheumatism for 10 years and
could scarcely move myself or get up
and down without help. I came to
Prof Icons show to night and he
invited me on the stage and told me
he could make me walk and that it
would cost me nothing. BY the as
sistance of my friends l got on the
stage and he commenced rubbing
me with his liniment. In short or
der my severe pains seemed to leave
me and commenced to use my
limbs and walked around on the
stage backwards and forwards and
wheeled on my heels like boy. l
now have no pain whatever. / have
lived in Franklin since '63. God
speed Prof. Leon and his medicines
if the cure lasts. | am going. to the
show to morrow night if | live.

A SAD CASE.
A Family in absolute Destitution
in Morgantown.

They are living in the rear of FentOn
Rice's on Bumbo Lane There was no
Furniture in the house and nothing
to eat when attention was called to
them-The woman and man both
Sick--A chance for some practical
Christianity Who will be the first to
Respond.
Morgantown has the first case of
restitution on its hands that it has
had for long time A family are
here consisting of the husband, wife
and one son and they were in abso-
lutte restitution when they came.
They are in the small house in rear
of Fenton Rice's on Bumbo Lane
The name ofthe husband is Henry
Lewis and they came from Manning
ton where they had been for some
time. They walked across the country
having no money to pay the railroad
fare. When they got here they had
no place to go and not cent in
money. For several days they slept
in a stable but finally rented the
house of Rice which they now oc-
cupy.
Their restitution became known
then to the Rices and they looked
after them giving them food and
other necessities. Several of the
neighbors have been interested in
them and they have been fixed up
considerably. However there is
much remaining to be done before
they are made as they should be.
The reason they came to Morgan
town was because they expected to
get work on the lock and the boy is
now employed there The man was
at work but was compelled on ac-
count of physical infirmities to lay
off on Saturday afternoon. Their
condition came to the notice of a
number of young men on Saturday
night and a purse was raised to help
them out.
The house is bare of furniture
and what they have in it now was
given to them by kind hearted
neighbors. The woman is sick with
consumption and has not very long
to live if indications go for any
thing.
The attention of the charitably
disposed people of the town is called
to the sad plight of these people
who are doing all they can to help
themselves and who are in every way
worthy of help and support until
they can get on their feet again.
1t would be entirely in order to
devote some of the charity fund
which was raised here last winter
toward alternating the distress of
these people if any of the money re-
mains in bank where it was placed
in anticipation of this kind.
The boy who is about Is years old
is at work at the lock and on Sat
urday afternoon he performed his
work and that of his father also in
order to hold the position for the
latter who was forced to lay off for
a few days. Remember he gives
twice who gives quickly. Some
practical christianity is very much
in order here.

Watson attempted to take her own
life yesterday morning by cutting her
throat with razor. She did not sue
coed, however, in severing the jugular
vein and was discovered in time to
save her life. No cause is assigned for
the rash act, but it is said that she
has been demented for some time, and
it is supposed that at the time she
was laboring under temporary fit of
insanity. She is the daughter of
Isaac Jackson, of Jane Lew, well
