The Press., 1906-01-10

Frank Sherrie was hanged at the
state prison at Wethersfeld shortly
after midnight Tuesday morning for
the murder of Mrs Kulas of Somers-
Vile on Jan. 3. The drop fell at
II. O6 and at II. p Sherrie was offic-
tally pronounced dead. The body
was cut down three minutes later.
Speaking of the execution, Warden
Garvin said it was the most successful
one which has ever taken place at the
institution. There was no hitch or
delay in the proceedings. Without a
word, Sherrie walked to his place on
the scaffold He made no farewell
speech and his last words were those
uttered before midnight. when he de-
clared his innocence of the crime of
which he had been convicted. One
of the last things which Sherrie did
was to make a will leaving to his two
sisters in Russia his estate, which
consisted of $110 in cash, a watch
and several trinkets. Sherrie was to
have been put to death on October 81,
but a respite was granted by Gov.
Roberts ON the request of Nicolas
Lodyensby, the Russian consul gen
eral at New York, who was interested
in the case by Russian officials in this
country. An attempt was made to
introduce new evidence, but this was
not successful, and no petition for
new trial was filed for the prisoner.
Sherrie was % years old and came
from Russia, where his two brothers
fought against the japanese during
the late war. Besides the three offic-
ials and the three -dirl etors who offie-
lated, those who witnessed the execu-
ton we're Prison Directors E. A. Full

9HR MARCY GENEALOGY.

We have been requested from a dis
lance to write up this old Wilmington
family's past history. We copy some
what from two historical volumes in
our possession: 1.-THE Marcy family
trace their ancestry to John Marcy,
who was born about 1862, a son of
the high sheriff of Limerick. He
Joined Elliott's church in Roxbury
March Z, 1855. In April, 1886, he,
with Benjamin Griggs and eleven
others, took possession of Quotasset,
Woodstock, Conn, granted in 1868
by the Colony of Massachusetts, to
the town of Roxbury. These thirteen
men and their families were the first
settlers of Windham county, Toll
land county at that time not having
been incorporated). zebediah Marcy
(1st) came from Woodstock to Will
lington, being the first of the family
by that name in these parts. He mar
ried Priscilla Morris, she being de-
scended from Lieut.. Edward Morris
of U. s. naval fame, whose father,
Thomas, was a native of Waltham,
Essex, England. The Marcys were
also scattered throughout Southbridge,
Mass, and Union, Hon. William L..
Marcy, secretary sof state under Presi-
dent Buchanan, and Gouvenier Morris
belonging to branch of this family.

new LEGISLATION
For Indian Territory This Ses-
sion Is Decidedly Inn
probable

Marshal w. III. Darrough returned
last night from Washington, where he
has been for more than week. He
went there with some prisoners for the
reform school, and remained for time
meeting old friends in congress and
the departments. lie says the out
look for remedial legislation from con-
gress this winter is decidedly poor,
but that in all probability Secretary
Hitchcock's IS timber reserve order will
meet with a harsh fate. Asked in re-
gard to the numerous investigations
of territory officials now being con-
Quoted in Washington, he said that
lie knew nothing about any Of them
save that in the Bixby case voluminous
charges and counter charges have
been filed, which are now being inves-
tigated.

IDEAS FOR THE KITCHEN AND
the SICK ROOM.
Proper Way to Roast Han1--Simple
Method Of Preparing Baked Pcta-
toes--Maklnp Fire Without
Disturbing invalid.

When making meat pie, turn q
cup upside down IN the bottom Of
dish; when going TO serve take cup
out and you VIII have plenty of gravy
to serve
TO ROAST A HAM.-Take a new
ham that has been salted for some
weeks. II smoked, parboil it before
roasting. While it is before the fire.
baste it with white wine and sugar.
When half done, remove skin, stick
it full Of cloves and let 1t roast as
long again, basting it with fresh vine
and sugar until thoroughly cooked.
NEVER STIR INGREDIENTS
When making biscuits or bread with
baking powder or soda and cream
tartar, the oven should be Ppepared
first, the dough handled quickly and
put into oven as soon as 1t becomes
the proper lightness If oven is too
slow. the article baked will be heavy
and hard. Never stir ingredients into
batter. but beat them in.
THE KITCHEN TABLE.--To pre-
gent the corner Of your table working
through your table oilcloth, take four
squares Of strong canvas glue piece
on wrong side. just where the corners
OF the table come in contact with the
tablecloth. This also prevents the
table oilcloth from cracking and look
ing shabby as you often see them.
SIMPLE MODE OF BAKING
Baked potatoes are said to be much
more wholesome than boiled, says a
writer AS 8 very hot oven is re-
auired to bake them, I thought Of q
much easier way. wash the pota
toes. and while they are wet l put
them in an iron frying pan and cover
with a close fitting cover and set
them on the top of the range to bake,
with a slow fire. turning them once
or more as needed. have followed
this plan for years, and like It much
better than the usual way. Try It.
FIRES IN SICK ROOM.-In a sick
room. where the slightest noise win
disturb the patient, I have found the
best method Of making up the fire,
and especially at night, IS to take
away all fire irons. replacing them
With an old walking stick; to clear
the ashes from the CRATE then place
on the IRE a parcel Of coal tied up
in a newspaper or stout paper bag,
which as the paper burns VIII gently
fa1l into place without noise. I have
never knoEn this to disturb even the
most restless sufferer.

w. H. Kornegay, back from the con-
stitutional convention for the holi-
days, is receiving the congratulations
of Vinita people for the excellent
county he has secured for us. cts
the best countyin the state, said Mr..
Kornegay this morning, and he is not
far from wrong.
Mr. Kornegay is glad the county
boundary business Is settled. He says
that il was scramble between selfish
interests, and that patriotism had but
a slight show. The boundaries, how
ever, were determined, not by politir
cal considerations, but by compromises
between the various conflicting county
seat interests. Any other SEE Of dele
gates would have had the same diff
culties.
In his opinion the Democratic party
will rot be injured by the acl in OF
the convention in creating boundaries.
Mr.. Kornegay says that as result Of
the Encouragement Of boundaries In
northwestern Oklahoma, the Demo-
Gratis will gain several votes there in
he legislature. The big counties
there we're solidly Republican; several
of the small counties will he Demo-
cratic.
Mr.. Kornegay is interested now in
the initiative and referendum meas
ure which is at present before the con-
vention. He thinks it contains a
Joker, put there by the corporations.
"If the Standard Oil and the railroads
can keep the legislatures handsof the
new state for two years" he says,
"they will have everything In their
own hands"
They propose to accomplish this re-
suit, according to Mr.. Kornegay, thru

TALKS ON
Conventions WORK
vinita's Delegate Is Being COngratu-
lated for the Excellent County He
Has Secured for vinita

that clause in the referendum law
which provides that five per cent Of
the voters may, by petition, postpone
the operation Of any law until it has
been voted upon by the people at the
succeeding biennial election. Accord
ing to Mr.. Kornegay, the first biennial
election in Oklahoma will not come
until 1910. II law displeases the
Standard Oh or the railroads, there
fore, they will simply order their em-
ployes to sign petition for a referen-
dunn vote, thus postponing the opera
tion Of the law for three years, and
giving them ample time to get in their
fancy work. OF course they would be
defeated as soon as the people had a
chance to vote, but by that time the
damage would be done.
Mr. Kornegay, therefore, proposes to
introduce an amendment providing for
an election to be held sixty days after
the adjournment of each legislature,
at which all laws on which a referen-
dunn vote rs ordered may be voted
upon. A law could not, therefore, be
held up for more than sixty days.
Asked as to whether the convention
would adopt permanent county seats,
Mr. Kornegay replied That he didnot
know, but chat in any event the re-
cording towns in the Indian Territory
would doubtless be designated as the
temporary county seats.
