Pennsy-Controlled Concern Empowers 1
Attorney Under Name of
Wheeling & Eastern.
i
Officials of the Wheeling. Ohio &. i
Eastern railroad, organized by local
men for the purpose of connecting;
Wheeling by rail with the rich Monon-j
prahela coal fields, yesterday called at-!
tention to the fact that their concern
has not sold out to the Pennsylvania
interests.
Such an impression was created in
some minds bv the filing of power 01
attorney for the Wheeling &. Eastern
railroad, naming Serial or J. R. Soir.
merville as attorney for that' road.
Senator Sommerville's certificate was
filed by thf> Wheeling & Eastern or
Pennsylvania, of which B. McKeen is
president and S. H. Church secretary.
Roth are Pennsylvania railroad men.
The Wheeling, Ohio & Eastern was
first organized as the Wheeling
Eastern, but changed its name when
I it was found that the name was the
'same as that of the Pennsy subsidiary.
I The Wheeling, Ohio &. Kastorn rc
| tains its identity and is going ahead
? with the construction of Its road.

There is one safe, dependable treat
ment that relieves itching torture and
skin irritation almost instantly and that
cleanscs and soothes the skin.
Ask any druggist for a 25c or $1 bottle
of zemo and apply it as directed. Soon
you will find that irritations, pimples,
black heads, eczema, blotches, ringworm
and similar skin troubles will disappear.
A little zemo, the penetrating, satis

banishes all skin eruptions and makes
the skin soft, smooth and healthy.

ELKS' PATRIOTIC
PROGRAM THRILLS
GREAT GATHERING!
Hon. W. T. Dixon Delivers Fine Ad- |
dress ? Dr. F. L. Hupp in Tell- j
ing Appeal for Red Cross.
The Elks' club auditorium was well i
tilled last evening when Wheeling
lodge No. 2S, H. P. 0. K., staged its \
long anticipated patriotic mass meet- j
ing. The patriotic sentiment and i
spiril of the Elks reflected in the de- 1
jightful program made the event one I
long to be remembered.
Members of the Grand Army of tlie
Republic, Ladies of the G. A. R., Worn
en's Relief corps and Sons of Veter
ans were guests of the Elks. A pretty
recognition was paid the defenders of
the country in ihe days of the rebel-]
lion and their kindred organizations. I
whose purpose is to perpetuate t h<s I
memory of those heroes and to keep |
aflame the fire of patriotism which |
caused them to respond so nobly m|
the time of their nation's need. Many
other friends of the Elks enjoyed ihe
program.
The Hon. \V. T. Dixon of Martins
Kerry, n member of the Elks lodge of
the Ohio side city, delivered the ad
dress of the evening. In connection
with am eloquent discussion of oui
crisis he paid a pretty tribute to
American patriotism and to the genu
inely patriotic spirit of the order of
Elks and their support of every pa
triotic sentiment and act in every cri
sis that confronts the country.
Redd Cross Appeal.
I.)r P. 1.. Hupp filled an important
place in the program in an eloquent
appeal for the Red Cross. His story
of the heroic acts of this great Ameri
can institution in times of war and its
devotion to the relief of the needy in
times of peace or catastrophe thrilleo
his heaters to a determination to ex
tend more hearty co-operation to the
humanitarian organization.
The music was decidedly patriot lt>
and inspirational. Instrumental music
was furnished by the Premier orches
tra. Equally as delightful were the
vocal selections by Mrs. Elsa Gun
dling Duga, Mr. David Crawford and
Mr. W'iil Leach. The. invocation was
pronounced by the Rev. Claude Porter
Terry, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, who offered a fervent prayoi
for the hiehesl . type of patriotism
among men ana a speedy restoration
of peace.
The concluding number was "Star
Spangled Manner." sung to the strain*
of orchesi ra music. The assembly
rose when ihe orchestra struck up
the strains of the song and the vol
ume and spirit of the song reflected
the sentiment which had been aroused
anew by the demonstration staged by
l he Elks.
CLINE FINED $100;
TWO MONTHS IN JAIL
