Serious Case OF Itching and Bleeding
Piles Cured.

For nearly year I was afflicted
with itching and bleeding pile sand
was so bad that l could not sit
down without great deal of pain.
l doctored and used all the different
kinds of pile medicine I could hear
of, without any benefit. Six months
ago I tried San-Cura Ointment; the
second application gave me great
relief, and half bottle cured me
completely. l have had no trouble
since. M. W. BUCHANAN,

WORKED At Dog SKIN
Cleaning Wells for the Fisher
Oil Company.
HAD AGooD REPUTATION
And His Friends Cannot Be-
lieve Him Guilty.

One of the two unsavosy prison
ers at Parkersburg, Wade Grant,
was taken to the Ohio county Jail
at Wheeling on the FIVE o'clock
train last evening, and the author
tiles acted advisedly in making the
transfer. This eXcrescence On the
face of humanity was in imminent
danger at the hands of the enraged
populace, and were it not for the
fact that the mob lacked leadership
the negro would now be before the
brightest tribunal to answer for his
crime.
1t transpires that while the Park
ersburg police were taken secret but
active measures for the apprehen-
sion of George Melat, that individ-
nal was in comparatively close
proximity to the scene of his al
legged malversation. His escape
from detection must be due to the
fact that the authorities believed he
had placed a good safe distance be
tween himself and the town.
He has been in the employe OF
the Fisher Oil Co. for nearly a
month, and during the time of this
engagement was at Dogsksn, on
the Ohio side, cleaning out wells
for the company. Last Saturday
evening Mr.. E H. Slower, mana
ger for the company, with an office
in the First National Bank build
ing, paid Melat the money due him,
$1o8, and the latter signified his in
tention ofresurning to Dogskin and
square a board bill and several
other pecuniary obligations. But
he did not do as he had said. He
was about the city the following
day and must have gone to Par
kersburg on the night of that day.
Melat has quite an acquaintance
among the oil men in this territory,
and the Review reporter has talked
with these people in regard to the
matter. They are naturally aghast
at the henious crime charged against
Nelate, but many OF them are
loathe to believe that he is guilty.
He is very gentlemanly in his de-
pertinent they say, and above the
usual intelligence of men in his
line of labor. His habits were quite
correct, and the opposite In every
way of a person whom one would
connect with such crime.
It is very evident that the senti-
mert of those who know him IS IN
his favor, aud these are unwilling
to accede his cuipability.
Parkersburg is gaining AN unen-
viable notoriety through these Of
lenses of an rnmentionable nature,
and she should inaugurate general
publication movement before reach
ing the plane of biblical Sodom and
Gomorrah. 1t is. a Moot question
whether people are justified in lynch
law, but in crimes such as these two
men are no doubt guilty of, the slow
process of law seems travesty on
Justice. The lynchers in such cases
would only be anticipating the
judgment of God.
George Melat is not the man.
Little Laura Shaffer clears him of
assaulting her, and has identified
Albert Bates, of Marietta, as the
guilty one. Bates is now in Jail
: but will probably be moved to
Wheeling, as the negroes are threat
ening tolynch him. Melat was re-
leased today, and his friends among
the oil people in this territory who
have so staunchly defended him,
can now say, II told you SO"
Terrible Case Of Eczema.
