The sum of 35,O00 was added to take care of the authority given the Home authorities to care for an overflow by renting quarters near the institution
 The appropriation for old age al- lowances, s185, 900. is identical with the sum recommended by the Bud get Board and is $45,O00 less than was appropriated two years ago for the same purpose.
 The fund for dependent children was raised from $7O,O00 to S90OOO. in accord with the recommenda- tion of the Budget. Tn the two funds for relief of destitution the total appropriated was $65 900, or $5,0C0 less than was appropriated two years ago and $5,O00 less than was recommended by the Budget Bureau.
 Remember Orthopedic Hospital
 The Seattle orthopedic hospital was remembered in the bill which carries S4,000 for that institution. This is s1 900 less than was provid- ed for the past biennium, but is identical with the recommendation of the Bureau of Budget.
 Five thousand dollars was al- lowed for the rescue and relief of lost persons, the same as two years ago.
 Agricultural fairs were elininat- ed. The livestock inspection serv- ice, now handled by the Veteri- marian from the Alaska College farm at Matanuska, was slashed from $5,000 two years ago to s1 ,5o0 This is $500 under the Budget esti- mate.

sona, the governor has no pardon Ing power; that rests with the board. The three members of that group were Ruth Judds strongest hope, except for the long formali- ties of an appeal to the supreme court.
 Halloran went to trial. Winnie Ruth Judd was summoned as a witness.
 For months she had been de- handing an opportunity to defend herself, openly and in public, and when the chance came she took it.
 She fought with the fury of a trapped animal screaming at at ,ornsys, defying the court, shriek- Ing over and over that she had killed in self-defense-that she had sattled for her life--tllat she was Innocent of wiiful murder
 Kept on Fighting ! The accessory oh arges against Halloran were dismissed. Ruth Judd's desperate effort to accuse aim and excuse herself failed, so far as the court was concerned.
 And she kept on fighting, reit- srating her story.
 She refused to believe that she would eyer die on the gallows. She chung to the steadfast belief that her appeal would succeed and that the pardon board would not mere ly commute her sentence to life imprisonment, but would let her go free.
 "Ill win" she said. But she lost.
 She lost again when the Board refused to grant her a pardon Then she tried again-the insanity hearing-and has won. Her own mother and her father were wit nesses at the hearing and they tes- tified concerning insanity in both branches of the family Alierlists testified she was sane. Dr. Judd, the woman's husband went before the Board of Pardons and Parole, The following are ex-

 cerpts from the Boards report:
 Testimony of Doctor
 Among the things told to the board by Dr. Judd was that his wife had admitted to him that she disn1embered the body of Miss Satnnelson in a batl1tltb. He related in detail the manner in which this was accomplished as told him by Ruth. r
 Dr. Judd said that Ruth stuck to this story for several weeks, then denied dismemberlhg the body to both me and to her lawyers "Dr. Judd added the report continued, that the matter of his wifess defense had been consider cd at great length, and that it had been deemed inadvisab,e by himself and Rttn's attorneys to present a plea of self-defense for the reason that they feared Mrs. Judd under crosse mi n tion might admit she Killed Mrs. Leroi in her bed and dismembsred Miss Samuelson's body in bath tub as previously revealed
 "A thorough and thoughtful con- sideration of all the testimony and Judd's own statement" the report concluded, together with care ful review of all the facts and cir cumstances attendant to lhiS trag- sdy compels this board to believe that Mrs. Judd shot Mrs. Leroi l through the temple while sne was abed, the 1nuzzle of the gun being held at or near the surface of the skin, and that Mrs. Le-oi was not killed in self-dsfensa
 High Court Ruling "The state supreme court has held that Mrs. Judd had a fair and impartial trial, and this board knows no reason, fact or circun- stance offered or disclosed before or subsequent to her trial why 1t should interfere with the verdict and judgment of the court fT

CLAIMED SHE FOUGHT HARD
 FOR HER LIFE
Trunk Murderess : Made Sensational Battle
 to Save Neck
Continued from Page one)


 At her own triad, her attorney Faul Schenck, since dead, coun- Seied her to silence.
 Now and then, while the case went on, she broke through that restraint with hysterical outbursts that were only a hint Of the flood gates that were to be opened when, closely guarded in ''murderers row" in the Florence penitentiary, she saw the shadow of the gallows creeping closer and closer.
 Demanded tho Chance
 Whine Ruth Judd began to talk; to make definite charges, positive accusations.
 Through newspapers, through ev- cry unofficial channel that wac open to her, she hurled the story that she said she had been forbid den to tell in court.
 Her new attorneys were working through legal means to save her life. They demanded new trial, they appealed, they tried every road that the law affords.
 Winnie Ruth Judd let the courts and lawyers go on about their bus mess and concentrated her force on just one thing.
 She demanded chance to tell her story to some one in authority The Maricopa County grand jury gave her the chance she wanted. The name of J. J. Halloran had been brought into the case.
 Hallorara, wealthy Phoenix club man, friend of Mrs. Judd, of He'd wig Saimuelson and of Agnes Anne Leroi had been shatowy, inte- terminate figure at her trial. Lit erally,s she screamed over and over, thst Jack HalIoran helped me with those bodies"
 Fights for Life
 And so the Maricopa County grand jury went into session to consider the Halloran matter, and they sent word to the Florence Penitefitiary that they would listen to Winnie Ruth Judd.
 Behind the closed doors of the grand jury room, Winnie Ruth Judd spoke in her own defense, Theoretically, she was there to give evidence against Halloran. Actually she was fighting to escape the menace of the nose that day by day came nearer and nearer.
 The grand jurors listened to her questioned her, watched her-and indicted Jack Halloran as an ac- cessory after the fact.
 And then they did an extraordi- nary thing, that can only be ex- plained by the force of Winnie Ruth Judd's single-handed appeal
 Asked Communication
 They wrote a formal letter tt the Arizona pardon board, asking that her sentence of death be com muted. sss
 The pardon board already had the case, laid before the body ir the proper legal manner by Win nie Ruth Judd's lawyers. IT. Ari'

 Following this decision, the war
 den of Florence Prison demanded
 the sanity hearing.
 Mrs. Judd was transformed iron,
 an inconspicuous office attendant
 at a Phoenix hospital to a figure
 of national notoriety on October
 l9, 1881, when the murdered bod
 ies of Hedyig Samuelson and tine
 Leroi girl were found in two srurks
 and a suitcase which Mrs. Judd had shipped from Phoenix to Los Angeles.
 She had made a futile attempt to claim the trunk at Los Angcie., railroad baggage office and .Een had vanished. A week later, she surrendered

 At her trial in Phoenix she pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity.
 Three Women Friends The three women had been friends and had shared bunga- low at Phoenix, where Miss Sam
 uelson was a tubercular patient and Mrs. Leroi was her nurse. The state asserted that jealousy was
 the metive for the killing. She was tried on the charge of murdering Mrs. Leroi, convicted on February 8, 1892, and sentenced to be hanged Later she was granted a 5S-day stay of sentence and April IA vas the date set for execution. This

New Fashions and Ancient
Faith

When you look over the snapshots
taken 80 years ago you wonder if it
is possible that the woman in the
funny hat is your own wife. When
you remember the things you did,
the way you travelled. the furnish
ings of your house in that far-ofi
age, you marvel that you could have
lived in so quantity an old-fashioned
world.
If you are person of middle age,
you may remember the first tele-
phone you ever saw. the first time
you turned on an electric light the
first horseless street ear in which
you rode. The automobile came later
yet and the radio was but of yester-
day.
These things all have come into
use with a generation, yet they have
utterly transformed the conditions
under which people live throughout
the United States.
Within your memory governments
which had stood for centuries have
fallen. The throne of the ears is
gone. Germany is a republic. Italy
is in the hands of a dictator. The
British Empire yet stands, but the
England of a generation ago has
gone. Here in our country it is diff
ficult to realize how great the
changes have been since the time of
Roosevelt.
Yet with all those changes the
part of man to which religion adj
dresses itself is unchanged. The wo-
man in the funny hat is the same
woman, with the same temptations
the same aspirations as have been
the portion of woman for all time
Things come ,and go. Fashions
change. But the heart of man sees
no alteration. His deepest need con
tinues to be the same.
Remember this in the new year
You may have fine new home
You may have an automobile and 8
radio set. You may wear better
looking clothes. But you are yet the
same frail sinner, knowing little OF
the mysteries of life and needing
above all to find your way to God
