Western railroad IN Virginia and as a re-
suit OF the strike. industries all along
the lines are shut down. and thousands
Of people are thus thrown out OF en-

incident. The Governor was going to re-
lieve from duty the Roanoke Machine
Works Guard. a company composed OF
wOrkingmen from those shops, but has
left them on duty on petition OF the men
themselves, who stated 10 him that they
were thrown out Of employment on ac-
count OF this strike. and preferred to re-
main on duty as soldiers 10 going home
to be idle.
But the situation Is improving When
the Governor left there were 200 men at
work in the mines OF the Southwest Com
pany. Sixty more were TO go on last
night 30 more were expected to-day
and 100 more on tomorrow. The COM
pany is taking back its old men. upon ap-
plication, except In the case Of few OBJ

Not few persons now living can re-

TIED by Lincoln as they knew him as a
man, statesman and president, but
there remains but one who knew him
as boy. playmate and "a youth to
fortune and to fame unknown"
That person is Uncle Austin Gollaher.
who lives about five miles northeast of
Hodgenville, Ky. among chain of
Muldraugh's Hills. Mr.. Gollaher is a
hale and sprighuy man, despite his adj
vanced years.
AS a boy. Mr.. Gollaher says Lincoln
was overgrown. awkward and homelv.
but was studiouS. generous and posses
sed Keen sense of humor In his
classes at the country school he gener-
ally ranked first, and was especially
good in mathematics. His parents were
poor. almost illiterate, and young Lin
coin often was compelled to study his
lessons at night by the freight. He
had high aspirations. though. and seem
cd not to be discouraged by tile difficult
ties in the way. When his parents
moved from the country. Mr.. Gollahcr
says. Abe knew more than does the av-

Asked his opinion as to what We're
the greatest factors that contributed to
Lincoin's success in after life. Mr.. Col
laher said: II suppose they were the
traits he possessed in his youth. name

ness. his ability to read human nature
and an innate desire to elevate and
benefit his fellow men We're the chief
factors to his success"
Yes" added Mr.. Gollaher. II once
saved Lincoln from watery grave.
Abe was afraid of water in his young
days and could not be induced to learn
to swim. One day when Knob creek
was swollen we wished to cross to the
other side. We started to cross on a
foot log. l in front. made it all right.
but Abe became dizzy when about half
way across, lost his balance and fell
into the stream. l seized rail. threw
