headlines when in Tuesday even
ing edition it published story
with sensational caption that a lep-
er had been arrested and placed in

This bit of joundice was written
around the simple fact that a drunk
en- man was arrested.
The arrested man IN question was
George w. Robinson, assistant sec
ton foreman of the B. & O. rail-
road. who has been working on the
B. go. in Clarksburg and vicinity
for the last fifteen years. He Is
inarried and at present resides in

drunken man, Robinson exhibited
the sore hand to him and in spirit
of drunken ffu1nor told 1iin he had

The News man got busy and tried
to frighten the people of the COM

lice court this morning he was tried

To convince the News crowd that
Robinson did not have the leprosy

Powell had W. c. Bennett, - x y.

examination revealed the fact that
