Pin Trave'ed in Body Is Years.

For several years, William Schcon-
over, OF West Phlippi, Barbour coun-
ty, w. Va, has been in very bad health
and recently he has not been able to get
about at al. A recent feature OF his
malady was sharp paAs in his right
foot and the other day while he vas
trying TO relieve these by rubbing the
foot his hand encountered a sharp
hard substance in his toe. This was
carefully removed and proved to be
a steel pin more than half an inch in
length and very sharp.
In telling OF the incident the Bar
bour Democrat, published at Philippi,
said:
"Mr. Schonover thinks that the
pin entered his body nearly 10 years
ago when he was working in RAN
dolph county At that time he used 4
pin like this to fasten his pocket which
held his pocketbook. When his az
fiction began il was first noticed on
the right side and aftervard shift
ed apund-sharp pains being felt.
Finally about four years ago he was
compelled to stop work and later lost
the use OF himself. A number OF
physicians have examined him but
seemed to have been unable to remedy
him. II is now hoped " the trouble
has not gone too far, that he viii re-
cover, at least improve ever his presen,
condition"

provides means of calling the legis-

adjourn, if they fail to pass a new ap.

fairer apportionment than the present
