LINCOLN COUSIN DEPICTS SLAYING AURORA, Ill., Jan. 14.—Warren J. Lincoln, Aurora attorney and horticulturist, claiming to be a distant cousin of Abraham Lincoln, today will be called upon to re-enact the slaying of his wife, Lina Shoup Lincoln, and her brother, Lyron L. Shoup, slain Jan. 10, 1922. Asst. State's Attorney 'Amell stated his belief that Lincoln had not told everything when he confessed that he killed his wife by a blow with a poker after she had shot her brother, then burned both bodies in the furnace of his greenhouse, near Aurora. Lincoln was traced by the green ribbon of his typewriter, with which he wrote all his letters prior to his disappearance. Appeals for financial help supposed to have come from his wife and her brother, were typed in green ink. "Personal" supposed to have been signed by his wife, which told of her flight with another admirer, were in the same color. When he fled, turning police suspicion on the pair whose bodies long before were ashes, altho his covering of other clues was diabolically clever, he took the typewrite with the green ribbon which eventually linked him with the slayings. Lincoln married Lina Shoup ten years ago when he was postmaster at Mount Palaski, Ill. He studied law after their marriage but after a year's practice decided to devote himself to horticulture, on his little farm on the old Indian Trail between Aurora and Mount Polaski. Dislike of her stepchild by Mrs. Lincoln, drove John Lincoln, a boy in his teens from the Lincoln home. Quarrels grew, aided by Mrs. Lincoln's temper and her husband's accusations of infidelity. They moved to Wichita, Kansas, where her brother Byron, Snouse, came to live with them. Lincoln accused Snouse of consulting with Robin Hood author UNIVERSALLY LOVED many voice with Vannucini in Italy and, in order further to perfect himself, studied composition with Genee, Delibes and Suppe. His operas, with the years in which he wrote them, follow: "The Begum," 1857; "Dor Quixote," 1859; "Robin Hood," 1889; "The Algerian," 1893; "Rob Roy," 1894; "Maid Maran," 1901, and "Happy Land," 1905. Perhaps the most popular of his operas—it has been performed more than 3000 times—is "Robin Hood." The text of this delightful work is by Harry B Smith. The renowned Bostonians was the first organization to bring this opera to public notice. This was on June 9, 1890, in Chicago. DeKoven was for a time conductor of the Washington Philharmonic orchestra, and at another period was musical critic on the New York World. EXPECT 1500 AT MEN'S CONFERENCE Fully 1500 active members from organizations in a score of cities are expected to gather in Santa Ana Thursday for the fifth quarterly convention of the Federated Men's Bible Class of So Calif. The program was announced today by W. D. Martin of Santa Ana, federation president. The convention will get under way at 3 p.m. with a business session at which officers for the coming year will be nominated. The afternoon gathering will be held at the First Christian church, convention headquarters. The evening session, beginning at 7:30 o'clock, will be held in Santa Ana polytechnic high school auditorium. Capt. Richmond P. Hobson t.the main speaker, STOCKS CLOSE WEAK NEW YORK Jan. 14.—The stock market closed weak today, being unfavorably influenced by the chaotic condition in the fore-equin exchange market. Final prices were from one to three points lower. Steel Common yielded %: Crucible 2½% to 66, and Bethlehem Steel "B" 1¼% to 53¾.

Dislike of her stepchild by Mrs. Lincoln, drove John Lincoln, a boy in his teens from the Lincoln home. Quarrels grew, aided by Mrs. Lincoln's temper and her husband's accusations of infidelity. They moved to Wichita, Kansas, where her brother Byron, enoup, came to live with them. Lincoln accused Shoup of conspiring with his wife against him. He sought physical revenge, but Shoup gave him severe beating. Then Lincoln returned to Aurora. In the summer of 1921 his wife followed him and his brother came soon afterward. January 10, two days after a bitter quarrel in which Lincoln accused his wife and Shoup of trying to kill him, he filed suit for divorce in Kane County court. That night Mrs. Lincoln and Shoup disappeared. Weeks passed without an investigation. Lincoln started to keep a light in his window at night and to complain to police of being followed. In April, a morning paper received a "personal." It was typed in green ink and read: "George J.—I am in Seattle. Quit W. J. for keeps, come. Lina L." Lincoln had accused his wife of being friendly with a man with these initials. There was another personal supposed to have come from the west coast. The original was typed in green ink. Then Lincoln disappeared. There was blood smear on the window all of his sleeping room, on an Indian club, in the greenhouse and on a skull cap which he had worn habitually while sleeping. Mrs. Lincoln and Shoup were caught for his supposed murder. In June Lincoln reappeared. His wild story of abduction was accepted. He went back to Aurora and for two months lived at his cottage there. He disappeared again in August and police learned he had gone to Detroit. Late in November John Lincoln, the son, received a letter supposed to have been written by Mrs. Lincoln from an Evanston hospital, asking for $500. The appeal was typed in green ink. The money was sent. A woman friend who tried to locate Mrs. Lincoln in Evanston received a letter warning her to keep away. It was typewritten in green ink. That letter was traced to a Drexel-blyd rooming house in Chicago, where Lincoln was arrested. He was questioned until dawn Sunday. Then he broke down.

TO PREVENT WASTE OF ARTESIAN WATER The Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee has instructed its officers to employ a man to patrol the San Bernardino artesian basin and make examination of all artesian wells to ascertain whether or not artesian water is being wasted.

Southern Railway and pacific fell over 1 point MIMIC WAR OFF PANAMA CANAL By JAS. L. KILGALLEN (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) ON BOARD USS. CAMBRIA, Panama Canal Zone, Jan. 14.—Mimic warfare will be declared today to test the defenses of the Panama Canal against the great armada of American warships that are engaged in maneuvers. It was expected that the first "battle" would take place off Colon at the eastern end of the waterway. The "black fleet" represent ing the enemy, was expect ed to clash with the Panama naval district force guarding the eastern entrance to the canal. The "black fleet," which is superior in strength, is expected to "sink" the Panama naval force. The next move of the "black fleet" is problematical. It may boldly attack the harbor or try to land an expeditionary force of marines. The marines would be equipped with explosives to attempt to "blow up" part of the canal. In the meantime, the "blue fleet" will start through the canal from the Pacific side, attempting to form a juncture with the Atlantic fleet, despite the opposition of the "black fleet." Leaders of the enemy fleet are confident they can wreck portions of the canal, thus preventing consolidation of the two fleets. Panama Canal Zone authorities were certain they could put the fleet through the canal in three days without disturbing commercial traffic. There are about 100 ships of varying strength taking part in the maneuvers. HELD TO SUPERIOR J. M.

Cozad of W. 17th st., was recovering today from injuries sustained when struck by an auto near the Santa Ana river bridge on 17th st. Cozad was crossing the street afoot and in attempting to avoid a car driven by J. B. Bowman, 1218 N. Van Ness, stepped in front of a machine driven by Manuel Portillo, 708 English St., Santa Ana, according to a report filed by the latter at the sheriff's office. Portillo said he attempted to avoid the pedestrian and almost succeeded. Cozad's foot was injured by the car. WITHSTANDS THIRD DEGREE 19 HOURS LIMA, O., Jan. 14. — William Mohler, 74, wealthy farmer near Blufton, arrested yesterday folPARIS, Jan. 14—A military and naval alliance between Italy and Spain, menacing France's Mediterranean connection with her great African empire—reservoir of man power for the next war—is envisaged by the French press as a result of the visit of King Alphonse of Spain in Italy. "Kings and queens don't go to so much trouble for nothing," comments the Matin, and goes on to point out the disadvantages of such an alliance from a French point of view. Collaboration of the Italian and Spanish fleets in the Mediterranean would result in a combined naval force much more powerful than any France could muster in southern waters. Italy and Spain would have 31 cruisers against France's 15; 80 torpedo boats against France's 15 and 51 submarines against only 20 for France. So long as the Anglo-French entente endures—and it seems how to be standing on its last legs—France has nothing to fear, for the Italian-Spanish alliance could not counterbalance the British Mediterranean fleet. But once the entente goes to smash France's connection with her African colonies will depend upon the suffrance of Italy and of England. The press suggests that France should join in an alliance with Italy and Spain. Judged by recent events, Mussoilin, who is not at all Frencophile, would not willingly accept such an arrangement. Indeed, most of his Mediterranean extension schemes are directed against France. An indication of this was given in the recent anniversary celebration of fascism in Italy. According to a Paris radical newspaper the fascist legions carried banners on which were printed the map of Italy. Curiously the map included Corsica—a French possession—a Italian territory. GROOM OF WEEK GOES TO PRISON FRESNO, Jan. 14. — Disillusionment after a short week of marital bliss, confronted Mrs. Ray Kohl, as she sat in court today and learned that her husband was a former inmate of the Oklahoma penitentiary, charged with murder and on a leave of absence granted by ex-Governor J.-C.
