WITH THE LEGiSLATURL.
Some Mark OF Respect will be Shown
Senator Handy by the General
Assembly.

Special to THE Sun.
DOVER, Del, Feb. 10.-The death OF
Senator Robert J. Handy cast an atmos
phere Of gloom over the General Assem-.
bly, today. In either house nothing was
done in the way OF legislative business.
During the morning session joint reso.
luton was passed in both houses ap-
pointing Senators Pyle and Alrichs on
the part Of the Senate and representa-
tives Eliason, Adams and johnson, a
committee to decide upon course OF
action. The committee at once opened
correspondence with the bereaved family
and until their answer was recei we'd
nothing was done. Senator Handy was
beloved by all who knew him. A genial
open great hearted man, all who come in
contact with him felt the charm OF his
good fellowship.
His death removes from the Senate
one Of the most conspicuous figures,
which have appeared on its floor for
many years. He lett Dover on Wednes-
day night apparently in the best OF
health and was looking forward to an
evening spent in his family circle be-
Meath his own roof. His home was to
him sanctuary from his political life
and he looked forward to his home 60
ings with all the eagerness of a boy.
The personal expressions Of regret and
esteem among the members were general
and sincere, every man having some
reminiscence OF ''Uncle Bob's', great
hearted kindness and fellowship.
During the morning session Speaker
Riggin in the House made al announce
ment to the effect that the Hon. Robert
Il. Pennington would like to meet the
General Assembly informally in the
House chamber at O'Clock to discuss
with them some important matters.
This proved to be general talk over
the difficulties and pccuIiarties Of the
laws under the new constitution. The
school, general incorporation and cleo
ton laws were mentioned as those which
presented the most difficulty.

Madison and jefferson streets, he
found man sitting on one OF the
main tracks of the roads, groaning as if
in great agony.
At first Mr. Sinex thought the man
was drunk, and saw if he stayed where
he was sitting in a few minutes he would
have been ground to pieces by the
wheels of Il train which was due at that
place only few minutes later.
On going over and helping the unfor.
tunate tramp to his feet, Sinex found
that the man was not drunk but was
very sick. lie was assisted to Front and
Madison streets, where an officer was
notified, who Immediately summoned
the patrol wagon, and the man was
taken to The Delaware Hospital.
An examination revealed the fact that
he was suffering from severe case of
pneumonia. Smith had come from New
York, and with very scAnt clothing
and much exposure ne contracted the
disease.
