u. S. EMPLOYE DENIES
REPORTS OF HIS DEATH

Memphis, Tenn. May 9.-Thomas
Y. Ashby. employe of the govern
ment fleet here, was trying to
prove today that he's alive.
The body of a young man stabbed
to death here early Monday was
identified yesterday as that of Ash
by. Identification was made by fell
low workers and by his aunt Po-
lice discovered that Ashby had left
the government fleet with $50 in
his pockets-and Immediately an
nounced that robbery was the
motive of the crime.
The afternoon papers were on the
street announcing that the myster-
ious victim had been identified as
young Ashby.
And then Ashby himself walked
into the newspaper Offices and. like
Mark Twain, declared that the re-
port of his death was greatly exag-
gerated.
From the newspapers he went to
the morgue to straighten up matte RS
with the coroner. There stood his
weeping aunt. who had just identi-
fed the body as that of her nephew
She was greatly shocked as Ashby
walked in.
Meanwhile there Is no clew to the
real identity of the victim, who
bears a strange resemblance to
Ashby.
