Philadelphia has just completed a
murder trial in the shortest time re-
corded in the annals OF American ju-
risprudence. Within seventy-two hours
Of the commission Of his crimes Will
liam Herman Lane was caught, tried
and sentenced to death.
The murders occurred on the morn
Ing of April 1 and he was sentenced on
the morning Of April 4, less than three
days in all.
Lanes crimes were of the most cold
blooded and cruel nature conceivable.
He shot his employer, Mrs. Ella A.
Furbush, Of 652 N. Fifteenth street.
Philadelphia, and her Oldest daughter,
Madeline. aged ten. Then he calmly
called her econ daughter. Eloise.
aged seven, into the house. and killed
her. too.
The Furbush murder case is not only
remarkable from a legal and police
point of view. 1t has caused a pro-
found and painful impression in the
best circles of Philadelphia society. 1t
revealed for the first time the fact
that Mr.. Charles A. Furbush. a man
Of the highest business and social
standing, was leading a double life. The
murdered Mrs. Furbush and her chill
dren formed a family whom he did not
introduce to society. He has an es-
Unable wife and a charming daughter,
who have been plunged into sorrow
and shame by this tragedy and its at
tendant revelations. Since the tragedy

ciety Of his family and friends and Is

On the day Of the murders Mrs. Fur

was unusually attentive. Breakfast
over, Mrs. Furbush and Madeline went
up to the third story front room. Lit

stairway to the third floor. Opening

fronted Mrs. Furbush. The sight Of the
revolver %terrorized her, but before she
could speak Lane sent a bullet Into
her heart, killing her instantly. Eloise.
paralyzed with fright, crouched on the
floor. With the same GOODNESS that
characterized the murder Of her moth
er, Lane then turned his weapon on
the innocent child. A flash, and a bull
let ploughed its way through the little
girls hip and into her abdomen. She
fell to the floor unconscious.
Closing the door, Lane then strolled
down to the front door. Madeline was
skating on the pavement.
Madeline. your mother wants you,"
he said.
Lane then returned to the house and
waited for his victim in the vestibule.
The child came in and Lane removed
her roller skates and then gave her a

where he will address the graduating
class of the Douglas high school. He
reports affairs at the university in

freshman class this year numbers 33
who are taking the full college course
which is the largest class yet enrolled.
In speaking of schools In small towns

urged the adoption Of a uniform curse
of study with regular grades. and ad-
vises that graduating exercises be con
Quoted each year, no matter II the
curse of study completed be not high.

In his opinion a graded school is in
every way far better than the loosely
conducted school. even In the smallest
towns. and the fact that pupils are able
to complete a regular recognized
course Of study and graduate therein
is q great incentive to more thorough
and systematic work.
