its group of energetic women, who lead
and light the way in every local enter

But breasts unframed the fiercest blast.

Shot Them Down.


shortly before noon Tuesday.
Shot Them Down.
At II o'clock he went to the third
floor and found Mrs. Furbush in one
of the middle rooms. He instantly
shot her twice, once in the breast and
then through the heart. She died in
stantly. Eloise, who was in another
room, hearing the noise, ran in to see
what was the matter, and as she en-
tered Lane shot her in the abdomen.
She fell, and he thought he had also
killed her. Without even attracting
the attention of another servant, who
was ironing in the kitchen, Lane went
to the front door and called in Made
line, who was skating on roller skates
on the sidewalk. He told her that her
mother wanted her on the third floor,
and without the slightest suspicion Of
the tragedy that was being enacted
and that she was going to her death,
Madeline climbed the stairs without
removing her skates. She went into
room adjoining that in which her
mother lay dead. Lane followed her,
and as she cheerily called her mother
the negro shot her through the heart,
killing her instantly.
Then Robbed the House.
Lane, in his confession, says he then
proceeded to rob the house. He quick
ly found $3.50, two watches and peck
etbook, and while he was searching
for the jewelry he was interrupted by
the arrival Of two special policemen,
who had a warrant for his arrest on
the charge of larceny. They asked
to see Mrs. Furbush, and Lane showed
them to the sitting-room on the Sec
ond floor and said he would call his
mistress. Recognizing one of the men
as an officer, Lane hastily donned his
overcoat and escaped by the rear of
the house. All was quiet in the house,
and the policemen, hearing moan,
started an investigation, and on the
third floor hallway found little Eloise.
To the policemen she said: William
shot my mother and my sister and
tried to kill me-
She was Immediately sent to a hos
pital and the police dragnet was put
in motion. Lane was traced to the
Pennsylvania railway station at Cam
den, where he was recognized by one
of the policemen he had admitted to
the house. The officers hustled him
in ferryboat and out of the jurisdic-
ton of the state of New Jersey and
took him to the city hail. At the po-
lice station Lane said he was sorry
for what he had done.
