WILLIAM 7. LANE,
HERO, IS DEPORTED
Man Who Sacrificed His Reason
That Child Might Live, Sent
Back to England

This is the story Of William T.
Lane. hero.
tt IS recorded IN Holy writ that
Greater love nath no man than this,
than a man las down his lie Tor his
friend
And William I Lane. humble me-
Chanic OF Battle Creck. IS doomed TO
Ia living death and, in addition, to loss
OF mis- adopted country by reason OF
an act oil herOism almost without par
allel.
The facts in the strange case came
TO light i'm the immigration Office Mon
day afternoon, when lane, hopelessly
insane, was ordered dcported togeth-
en- with his vile and six young chill
dren, as public charges.
Lane came TO Battle Creek from
England three years ago, worked hard
that his wife and little ones might
live as others lived and enjoy the
blessings of lite In free America
one night fire engines dashed By
the Lane cottage and the glare OF
DANES and the noise OF changing fire
bells Weakened the family from slum-
Der.
Looking out OF the window Lane
saw that the home Of a neighbOr was
on fir" and, seeing the fire, he thought
OF little invalid girl, 80 like the lit
tie one of his whose voice had been
stilled forever some years before
lie rushed out ana, finding that the
child had been left behind in the burn
ing home, he dashed into the smoke
and flames and carried the little one
10 safety
The shock Of his awful experience
in that Inferno OF flame was too much
for him however and his mind gave
way He was sent 10 the asylum in
kalamazoo and after year, dis
charged as cured
His mind gave way again, however,
and his family was found 10 have be
come a public charge
That is how il happened that WI
liam 7. Lane hero, his wife and six
small children left Detroit Monday
afternoon ON The first lap OF a jour
ney back 70 England
And that is why William r. Lane,
mumbing incohereDtly gazed before
him with eyes from which the hight
OF reason had fed and wondered, per
haps what il was all about while lit
tie ones ugged az his coat and wept.

VIRGINIA DAY AT EXPOSITION.
Governor Stuart Asked to Present
Flag of State For The
Occasion

Richmond, Va, May 14.-Governor
Stuart Yesterday received letter
from the American Commissioner
General of the Anglo American Expo
s;tion, notifying him that the opening
ceremony at Shepherds Bush' Lon
Ton, will take place today, May l4th,
and requesting him to present tns
American section of the exposition
with the State flag of Virginia.
The flag is to be flown over one
of the buildings devoted to the Amerl-
ran section. and also over the main
entrance to the exposition on the oc-
casion of Virginia State day, August
10Th, which day is to be set aside for
special celebrations in honor of the
State and approved by the Governor
The idea of state days has been re-
ccived with warm approval by sew
cral governors, and a number OF
them have already expressed willing
ness to present the State flag TO the
exposition authorities on the other
size of the Atlantic.
In view of the close proximity OF
the opening of the exposition, the
American Commissioner General has
now removed his offices and staff from
the Woolworth building in New York
to the exposition grounds, London, aht
is rushing things forward on behalf
of the American section, which will
be thoroughly representative of al
that is best in arts, sciences and in
dustries of this country. Already {
large number of American exhibits
have been installed in the exposition
palaces at Shepherds Bush.
