RIVER VICTIM


The body of a man found in the Ohio River, near Melbourne Ky. Friday was identified last Monday as that of James Farber, a deck hand, who worked on the steamer Chilo. Farber's home was at Portsmouth O. The identification was made by fellow members of the steamer's crew.

John Collins, engineer, told Coroner Higgins of Campbell co. that Farber fell off the steamer more than a week ago. The body will be sent to Portsmouth by Cositgan & Roll, Newport undertakers.
