Sing Sing prison late last night for
the murder of two officials of a Brook
lyn savings bank in December, 1918.
His body will be buried in a local
cemetery today. No one claimed the
body, and the mystery surrounding his
parentage, which he had studiously
guarded, remained unsolved. An
autopsy disclosed that the brain of
the youthful criminal was normal"
and well developed.
Handy maintained his composure to
the last. smiling as he was strapped
to the chair and making a brief oral
statement to the warden and witnesses
Just before life was snuffed out.
AS he left the death house he called
out to his companions: Good bye, fell
lows. l always liked to try everything

The murderer gave three letters to
the warden. asked him to mail them
and keep the addresses secret

had any message for the youth of the
country Handy said: "I don't wish to
appear in the light of a moralist, but
you can tell them for me never to
start doing wrong. Once you get start

OF Amendment Action May BE Illegal
The TENNESSEE House gof Represen-
tatiyes, with a quorum pTssenc loi -
first time since August 20, expunged
from its journal TueSday all record o.
ratification of the federal suffrage
amendment and voted forty-seFen to
twenty-four. with twenty nos voting,
to non-concur in the action of the
Senate in ratlfying the amendment.
Governor Roberts, upon being noti-
fed Of the House'e action, declined to
make any statement other than to say
that the situation could only be dealt
with in legal manner and was in the
hands Of Attorney General Thomp-
son.
State officials and many members of
the legislature oppressed the belief that
legality or illegality of Tennessee's
ratification would be decided upon,
the record certified to w ashington by
Governor Roberts and not on the ae-
ton taken by the House.
Shortly after the. House convened
it become evident that the anti-rati-
ficationists, majority of whom have
been in Alabama on filibuster for
more than a. weeK, were in the majori-

suffrage members to arrive in time
With clock-like program, the ants
proceeded to put through their plan
to attmepting to undo what was done
August 2I--when ratification was ac-

The first step was the motion to
expunge from the journal of that day
all reference to the proceedings upon

After this was carried, Az to 81. with
six not voting, motion was made and

4. Rewards
~ GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS

TT is an Economic truth that most
4 work is undertaken for Reward,
would not be done without Reward,
and is strenuous and well directed in
proportion to the Reward. So Taussig
states in his Principles of Econom-
les" This condition will undoubtedly
always remain true, but if you want to
be among those who are this worlds
Leaders in Thought and Action
Do'a little more than that for which
you are Rewarded.
Fortune does more than favor the
Brave. 1t favors the Alert and Indus
trious-tEe Thinkers whose Thoughts
reach several miles beyond their pay
envelopes. Gustavus r. Swift, loyal
and enthusiastic in his job as a poor
Butcher boy in an Insignificant New
England town, and Gustavus F. Swift,
founder and builder of Swift & Com
pany furnishing the meats and pro-
vision for millions, is a case in point.
He saw Reward BEYOND his pay en-
velope.
Do little more than that for which
you are Rewarded.
But remember that Money and Ma
terial Achievement is not always Sue
cess. Lincoln left next to nothing in
Money, but his life was an Evidence
in itself of what he felt embodied in
finitely more than all Material Re

give you in Happiness and Content
ment what your own Character and

Gov. Ritchie ANNOUNCED Wednesday

to Especial session to convene Monday,
September 20, to enact legislation pro-
viding additional registration and cleo
ton facilities to handle women S
votes. The formal call, the GoveTno
said would be issued promptly.
. lin statement setting forth the
necessity for an extra session, the
Governor included careful calcula-
ton as to the number of women who
could be registered If there were only
the two days in the counties now pro-
vided, and the number who would be
deprived of opportunity to register.
Upon the assumption that as many
women are entitled to register in the
counties as there are men voters, the
Governor found that .60.521 would not
have opportunity to register in two
days sitting.
1t is estimated 2274 women will reg

There are sweet surprises awaiting
many an humble soul fighting against
great odds in the battle ef, seemingly
commonplace life"
What to Do With Bits Of Leftovers-
Most housewives have dozens of
ways of re-cooking or serving leftover
meats, but too many throw away left
over vegetables or serve them again
warmed up in the same sauce. Vege-
tables of most kinds admit of so many
ways of cooking that even spoonful
should never be wasted.
We have any number of recipes
which tell us how to serve the vege-
table in any quantity, but we have to
do in this article with small amounts
which are beneath the notice Of the
average cook.
A spoonful Of cooked beans washed
from. the sauce In which they were
served added to a potato salad will
make that quite another dish; the
same is true of peas, corn or other
vegetables.
One cupful of stewed corn will make
an escalloped dish sufficient for small
family. Butter a baking dish, put in
the corn with alternate layers of but
tered crumbs; dot each layer with bits
of butter if dry crumbs are used, and
sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour
over enough milk with beaten egg
added to cover the corn, and bake until
firm.
A cuptul of corn win provide corn
fritters for four people. Add egg, a
tablespoonful of milk and flour, to
make a drop batter; add half tea
spoonful of baking powder to the -four;
fry the size Of large oysters in we'll
creased frying pan or in deep fat.
There is no economy in combining
with leftoyers expensive foods such as
butter, cream. eggs and milk, to make
them pass muster with the family, for
the object in using leftoyers is to be
frugal, and at the same time serve an
appetizing dish

 Colonel Marrow has seen service in the Philippines and a large part of the world. He was in the Boxer campaign and later was military governor of a Chinese province for the American government for a time. Whether Col onel Morrow and his men have ever left Siberia there is no word at his home. He is a native of Somerset. Ky
