MUKDERS BKOIGHT HOME Three most sensational murder cases b&ve been tritd during the past week, and in each cage tli3 accused Lai been found guilty, In this coun- try the Shortis case at Valleyfield.Quc. Las ended in a verdict of guilty. Short is was charged with shooting a book keeper named Loy . In summing up the case the judge remarked that fcjhonii was a spoilt boy from boy- Lood aud gradually developed into a self-willed monster. What a state- ment wai this for the aged father and mother, who sat near, to listen to. They had "spoilt" thtir boy in early youth aud he had developed into a murderer. In human judgment it is impossible to state just what amount of guilt for this murder lies at the door of the parents, but that guilt there is admits of no doubt. Holmes, the murderer of four of the Pietzcl family, has been found guilty IK Philadelphia. This mounter's story is one of peculiar horror. Possessed of everything that could make life a euccee*. a brilliant mind, a powerful iutelloot and a medical diploma, be chose the path of crime ud to hide Lit crime added quadruple murder, if that includes all hi) victims. Such criminals as Homes are rare but their fato ii sure. Society will breathe freer when it knows that the rope has done its work. The Durant case was far away in Bun Francisco but has created much iutoreil here. Theodore Durant was a youux medical student, who was charged with having strangled a young girl named Blanche Lamont in a church He was also thought to have murdered another girl named Williams who was found dead in the same church. (The evidence was whol'y cir cumstantial, but he was found guilty. The second trial of the Hyams twins for the murder of Willie Wells is in process at Toronto this week. It is expected that this case will last about two weeks. Toronto Saturday Night calls tho proposed ship canal from lake Simcoc to Toronto a "icroamiug farce."
