BLACK JACK ROBBER { WILL BE HEARD
 SATURDAY
DEPARTURE FROM PATH OF vIR- TUE A GREAT SURPRISE TO
 ALL HIS FRIENDS.
WAS STEADY AND INDUSTRIOUS
LATER INFORMATION REGARDING SPECTACULAR HOLDUP OF
 BRICK SALOON.

Loney Couch, the young man charged with the robbery of the Brick Saloon Wednesday night, was arraigned yes. terday forenoon before Justice Hinson Thomas, who set his preliminary ex- animation for Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Couch win bo represented by Attorney T. E. Flannigan.
 The prisoner is spoken of in the highest terms by all his former com panions, and yesterday there were many expressions of astonishment that he shouldl have got himself into such "a plight. He received several visitors during the day, but had no further statements to make to the public.
 'Couch worked on the night shift on our level, running the pumps, !" said one of the miners "We could hardly believe it when the shift boss came and told us that Couch had held up the Brick saloon and robbed the bank. He was good lad, steady worker and q law abiding man. He had his own ideas, though, and he thought that when a workingman wanted anything to bet ter bis condition, the best way to do was to go right after it and take it. y On the night of his arrest, however, Couch was very much wrought up and excited, so much so as to render him a dangerous man, in the opinion of the officers. When arrested, he proposed that Marshal Anderson take the money and leave him alone.
 There are only two of us that know anything about this," he said, "and if you will just take that money nobody else need ever know anything about ln.v
 The finding of Couch was so easy that 1t astonished even Marshal Anderson. "After the robbery, there were sev. eral men in the saloon who said they thought they had recognized Couch < voice." Marshal Anderson explained l"I thought that the best thing to do would be first to go to his room and see what was there. The door was closed and he answered right away when l knocked, but until then had no idea of finding him there.o An amusing incident in connection with the robbery was the conduct of . special deputy sheriff from the Old Do minion mine, who was in the saloon fully armed, when the masked robbe, entered.
 The deputy was not little bit be hind any of the other twelve or fiji teen men in the place when they wer. ordered to the back wall of the saloon with their noses turned to the wall ant their hands reaching for the ceiling. Looking for the money back of tn, counter, the robber laid his pistol or the counter and stopped to search tn, drawers below, leaving himself at tn, mercy of any armed man in the place but it is said that the deputy scene, to consider this a signal for cultivatin. an even closer intimacy with the cell ing.
 When twitted about his conduct yes terday, the deputy explained that b, was then supposed to be on duty oi the grounds of the old Dominion mine and that if he had done anything to at tract attention, the company woul, have discovered that he was in salool instead of at his post, which would hay cost him his job.

individuals who he learned were sent on the same mission AS himself. One represented prominent eastern mer- chant, and the other distilling concern which recognized the commercial value of the pure water from the rock spring and the bottle label bearing the inserip- ton "Lincoln Birthplace whisky.' Both had come with instructions to "Bid it in' and the sentiment which they displayed about their mission was intense. It eventually worked their ruin, for before evening their patriotic enthusiasm had been stimulated to a high degree, and by midnight both were peaceably abed.
 Mir. Jones came here by buggy early the next morning and sought out the commissioner who was to conduct the sale With the thought of the two gen tlemen who were still resting in Eliz- abethtown he tried to persuade the com missioner to start the sale promptly at having it in the afternoon. Finally twelvetbirty was agreed upon as a compromise. A horse auction the same day excited more interest among the citizens of the village and it was but small crowd that gathered about the court house when Commissioner Hand ley announced that he was ready to sell the Rock Spring farm. The bidding started at s1,500 and was gradually worked up to $3,600 at which price it was sold to MT, Golfers representative. After the papers had been properly drawn and recorded MT. Jones started to drive back to Elizabethtown and encountered one of the belated bidders who was mercilessly hurrying his horse to reach the auction in time to bid. An indignant salutation greeted MT. Jones announcement that the Lincoln farm was in his pocket.
 "What am I to say when I get back" the other shouted in dismay. |"Ill give you $lO,O0O for it right now" But MT. Collier had better use for the place and it was not handed over. Instead he interested group of Representative American citizens in forming national association for the preservation of this ground This group of citizens organized the Lincoln Farm association which was promptly incorporated under the laws of the state of New York. The title of the Lincoln
 birthplace was transferred to this asso

By Frank Busby, Aged III.

By Frank Busby, Aged II.
 Abraham Lincoln was born in Ken tuckey Feb. 12 1909. He grew up to be hardy little boy. He loved books but he didn't have many. Once he borrowed book from a neighbor. When he went to bed he put the book between the cracks in the logs. One night it showed through the cracks and spoiled the book. He took it to the owner and showed it to him and asked him what he could do to pay for it. So Abe worked three days. The man gave him the book It was the Life of Washington. He read the book over and over until he could say the pages by heart. He loved to read and his mother liked to read too so she would read him everything she could find.
 When Abe was eight years old they moved to Indiana. They put little three sided hunters cabin and hung bear skins over the fourth side to keep out the rain and snow.
 When they had been here year they built a log cabin. After while Abe s mother got very ill and died. It was a very hard blow for the little fellow. He used to go out by her grave and cry till he could cry no more. After while his father brought him home a new mother. She was very good to little Abe.
 The family lived in Indiana till Abe was twenty one then they moved to Illinois. It took them about two weeks to go. After they got there the father put up log cabin. Then there canus what the people called, the winter of deep snow.
 While they lived in Indiana Abe went down the river in flat boat After they came to Illinois Abe had another chance to go down the river so he went While he was at New Oreleans be saw Slaves sold in chains and ever after that time he had long ing to set the slaves free.
 After while Abraham went to Spring field to live. He had not been here long until he set up a little store One night poor woman came to buy half pound of tea. Abe weighed out the amount as he supposed and left the weigh on the scales. The next morning he found that hs had used the wrong weight. He did up the amount that was lacking and took it to the women, who had rpi yet discovered the mistake. This il one of the many ways he gained hi' name of Honest Abe. All this, time he had been studying the law because he wanted to become q lawer. Finely he was elected to the legusature oi Illoones. Now hc was becoming { great man.
 Trouble was arising in this country And the people wanted wise man fol president. So they said why not hav' Abraham Lincoln. And sure enougl when election day came he was elected our eighteenth President. He diet April IA, 1865. He was a good an' Honest man who was loved by all.

ger Land Safely.

The three army aeronauts who depart
ed from the Washington gas works at

No II were gone long enough to cause
anxiety among their friends. They We're
in the air only three hours, but landed
in lower Maryland. about forty miles
from telegraph office. and were not
heard from until yesterday morning.
The balloon reached an altitude Of 1000
feet maximum. and the temperature
dropped at the lowest to 3S degrees. The
party crossed the Patuxent twice. and
finally landed in a plowed field on the
farm of Mr.. Callihan, at Great Mills.
about ten miles from Leonardtown. The
wires there were down. and the aero
nauts had to drive thirty miles farther
before they reached station whence
message could be sent to Washington.
Lieut.. Foulois telephoned his wife that
the party was safe, and he, with Leuts.
Lahm and Bamberger. came TO Washing
ton ontthe first available train. They said
that the trip was pleasant until they
descended to earth. The ride across
country was the hardest part of the out
ing. The balloon was shipped TO Fort
Myer, where it will be overhaued and
put in condition for the next trip, some
time this week.
1t is possible that the dirigible will be
inflated this week, and a trip will be made
in it from Fort Myer
