economy is the possibility Of keep

and kept in the freezing unit until

it will be found attractive and of

I think are especially delicious.

Now let us see how the system
works in this game Of left-overs
in disguise. One chef offers the
following dish which he makes on
occasions when too much shred
ded cabbage has been prepared for
salad-yet not enough remains for
a vegetable dish alone:
Flemish Cabbage
To shout q half head OF cabbage,
shredded, add a half of one small
Spanish onion and one mediums
sized apple, both shredded. Season
with pepper and salt; add small
dash Of sugar and cook gently un-
til tender. Ten minutes before serv-

pan with q large piece Of butter
and two teaspoons OF lemon juice
or vinegar. Cook slowly until well
blendid. This is what is known as

FRAT FIRE CASE
CONVICTION
REVERSED
D. c. Court Declares Improper
Evidence Admitted; Error
Writ Brushed Aside

Conviction of Edward ]. Parl-
ton, son of a prominent Derby,
Conn.,, physician, and Alfred H.
Smith on an arson charge in con-
nection with the Sigma Chi frat
house fire in July, 1888, was re-
versed in a 3-to-2 opinion handed
down today by the District Court
Of Appeals.
A confession of error, filed by
Attorney General Homer S. Cum
mings, who sought vindication
for the two defendants on the
ground evidence presented at the
trial did not warrant the convic-
ton, was brushed aside by the
appellate court. The court
granted the reversal on the
ground that improper evidence
was admitted at the trial.
Two In Dissent
The opinion was written by
Justice Lawrence Groner. Justices
William Hitz and Charles H. Robb
dissented from the majority of
the court.
The fire occurred July 9, 1898.
The two defendants offered an
alibi to the effect they were en-
route to New Freedom, Pa. in an
automobile at a time which would
make it impossible for them to
have set the fire, which the court
stated was doubtless incendiary.
Evidence regarding a spot on a
felt pad in the rear of the auto
mobile gained the young men the
reversal. The trial court permit
ted a micro-analyst to testify that
the spot on the pad, which had
been removed from the car ten
days after the fire, was made by
a type of gasoline similar to the
type which the Government &C.
cused the young men of buying at
a local gas station a short time
before the fire.
Offered No Link
Regarding this evidence, the
appellate court stated the prose
cution had offered no evidence to
link the spotted pad to the date
Of the fire. The opinion held it
was fatal error to permit the
jury to infer that because of the
blue stain on the mat, the de-
PENDANTS had purchased blue
gasoline on July without any
evidence to show the stain was
there ut the time of or imme-
diately after fire"
Attorneys Percy H. Marshall
and Fred j. Rice represented the
defendants in both the trial and
appellate courts.
