Former Sailor Takes Miner
Out. for a Walk and Hits
Him on Head With Club.

Jock Mix, former sailor, still
wearing the uniform Of a seafar-
ing man, is a prisoner In the coun.
ty jail awaiting preliminary
hearing on a charge OF felonious-
ly assaulting and robbing William
Machek. OF near Louisville.
Mix claims that he was dis
charged from one of the big boats
about six weeks ago when qGes-
toned at the county jail as to
WY he was still wearing the uni
form Of a sailor IL he had been
out of the service six months!
Machek reported his trouble to
city and county officers shortly
before midnight last night and
Mix was arrested at Warrington
carly today and brought to the
county jail here.
Hachek said that he had been
in the city and had gone to the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co.
passenger station to await the
arrival Of. q train to so to his
home. While in the waiting
room Mix came in and sat down
and started talking to him. After
they had talked for short time
Mix suggested that they take a
short walk down into the yards.
Machek said that Mix looked
like a nice fellow and he accom-
panied him on the walk. When
they were some little distance
from the station, Machek said he
noticed that Mix had "a club in
his hand. The next thing he
knew tho club struck him on the
head with great force.
When he rallied enough to realize
what had happened he discovered
that Mix was gone. He then rocked
for his money, 500. and it was
gone. His own gold watch and d
watch which he had purchased at q
local jewelry store for friend
we're also gone, as well as 81 worth
Of Christmas cards, which he had
obtained during the day.
Machek made his way back to
the station and started in search
OF an officer. He soon found Night
Chief Shroyer Of the police force
and told him his story. NIGH
Chief Shroyer called Policeman
Hawkins and they started a search
for Mix. Deputy Sheriff Howard
Charlton was also called and aided
in the search.
After while a clue was discov
cred which led the chase to Man
nlngton where Mix was arrested
When searched, $50 OF the stolen
money and one OF the gold watches
were recovered. The other gold
watch, $50 or Machek's money and
the Christmas cards were moi
found. Mix was brought to .thit
city and locked up in the county
jail. Later In the morning Mia
was searched again but none Of
the other articles or money lost
was found.
Prosecuting Attorney Frank R
Amos Is making thorough investi.
cation Of the case and as soon al
1t Is finished Mix will be given q
preliminary hearing. The officers
believe that Mix IS going under at
assumed name and that he IS wear
ing the sailor uniform for a dis
guise. 1t Is believed that he II
wanted in other cities for more
serious crimes.
