Electrocution Faces Bank Robber
Tonight, But He Sleeps Well
J- and Asserts He Is Ready.
Oselnlnr. N. T.. Jan. 2. (I. N
!J3.) -Although Gordon Fawcett
. Hamby, Iroa-nerved hank roooer,
' mnrAernT and rlsoner of mystery,
'walked In the very shadow ot death
today, he. was cheerful and gave no
Isms of break in ir down. Unless a
last minute reprieve comes from
Governor Smith, Hamby will be elec
trocuted In Sing Sing prison shortly
. '.after 11 o'clock tonight for the mur
' .der of two bank clerks In Brooklyn
In Ull.
Watchers In the Sing Sing prison
death house said that Hamby had slept
. amaslngly well for a man who is spend-
lng his last niht on earth. He is the
most remarkable prisoner that Sing
Sing has ever had.
JTOT HIS 'NAME
, He Insists that Hamby is not his right
name, but declared that he would go to
' fhls death "on time" without revealing
the secret of his life. He is only 26
. years old.
- Hamby coolly told the prison offi
cials that he had planned to kill hlm-
;self, but had decided to "commit legal
.' suicide Instead."
' "You treated me squarely, warden,
and were such a good fellow that I
' decided to let the law take its course,"
aid the condemned man.
' During the last few days In the death
r house Hamby has been amusing himself
'.with an oulja -board and a phonograph.
Ha was an inveterate cigarette smoker,
but when his supply of tobacco was ex
hausted he refused to slitn the name
"Hamby" to an order on his small sup
ply to buy more.
ARRESTED AT TACOMA
Hamby was arrested in Tacoma,
- Wash., and brought to Brooklyn in
' June, 1919. He made a confession to
'the King county district attorney saying
he had committed robberies "in every
country of consequence on the face of
the globe, but had never tackled a Job
tmlaaa there were five flirures in It."
; He was placed on trial in Brooklyn
: on June 23. waivei all aerense ana was
convicted, three days later.
The only request Hamby made to the
' court was that the certificate of his
death be made to read "Jay B. Allen"
Instead of Gordon Fawcett Hamby.
Medical men who have examined
Hamby declare that he is sane.

New Taffeta Dresses
Youthfully smart, -with their bouffant skirts and basque bod
ices, suggestive of old-fashioned quaintness. Ornamented
with pinked or frayed fluting, wool yarn embroidery, hip
puffing, they have a charming appeal'. Of course, they have
short sleeves that's the newest fashion notion.
Some chic models in navy, black, taupe, gray and

Quite the cleverest mode in coats. Som hang "straight from
