KILLED FOR SPURNING LOVE
Suitor of Miss Lewis, a Bronx School
Teacher, Keeps Threat by
Shooting Her
New York. Jan. 7.—Susan Lewis, a
(Bronx school teadher, 21 years old, was
shot and killed in East 179 th street
yesterday afternoon by Frank Berch
man, 22, who had been in love with
her since they were in school together,
and who had threatened vengeance
when his offers of marriage were finally
refused three months a^o.
It was the end of the second unfor
tunate love affair of the sons of >r
ace V. Bercfninan, a contractor of 1567
iEulton avenue, The Bronx. Seven years
ago Henri Berchman. a violinist, won
wiflh his music the heart of a German
princess ami was forced to flee to this
country and abandon his musical studies
to escape the German secret iwlice*
Miss Ijewis, who was attractive and
popular in public school 28, where she
had taught for a year, was walking to
her hotme at 1996 Clinton avenue when
Berchman nieft her in East 179 th street,
about half way between Monterey and
1 Third avenues. She talked for a few
, minutes with him. Passersby heard the
I young man's voice raised in anger. As
i Miss Lewis half turned from him he
I drew a revolver and fire/1 five shots.
Three of the bullets hit her and she
sank to the sidewalk. Berchman looked
at her a moment, the revolver still in
his hand, and tlhen walked slowly away,
j Policeman Goff had heard the shots and
I as he ran toward Berchman the young
man tried to get away, but got' only
half a when he was halted by
| Goff "s threat to fire. Then Berchman
| his revolver.
Miss Ijewis was taken to J\>rdham
j hospital by Dr. Golden, where it was
found that one bullet had penetrated
; her breast. The others had lodged in
| her arms. She died at 8.30 o'clock.
hile she was still conscigus Berch
man was taken to her bedside. She
raised herself on one elbow and said:
"That is the man who shot me."

KILL LOBSTERS KINDLY
Put Them In Co'ld Water and Slowly
Bring Them to a 801 l
Boiling over a slo<w fire is the hap
piest death a lobster can meet, so it
has been determined at the Jersey ma
rine biological station. The experi
ments were carried out by Joseph
Sinel, a well known biologist, for the
Isle of Jersey Society for the Preven
tion of Cruelty to Animals, whose mem
bers associated the prevalent method
of killing lobsters with medieval tor
ture.
Lofosters, says Mr. Sinel, are ex
tremely difficult to kill. Piercing the
brain does not seem to cause the lob
ster more than temporary annoyance,
since his brain is a more nerve * gan
glion the size of a hemp seed. He has
to be killed all over. To throw him
into boiling water fails to do the work
either mercifully or quickly since he
struggles violently to escape for about
two minutes.
The pleasantest way to end a lob
ster's troubles, Mr. Sinel finds, is the
oM fashioned way of placing him in
cold water and bringing him to a boil.
As the water warms he becomes lazy
and rolls over as for a sleep. Ry the
time the water reaches the compara
tively mild temperature of 70 degrees
Fahrenheit he becomes comatose. At
80 degrees he is dead. To use a hu
man illustration, the biologist says it
is like a person succumbing to a heat
wave, with loss of consciousness and
a painless end. —London Cor. New York
Post.
Too Many Railroad Commissions
As a rule the state railroad commis
sions have failed to help and have gen
erally hurt the national transportation
systems. Tb« infinite variety and con
flicting nature of their regulations have"
done very little for the public which
the Interstate Commerce Commission
cannot do as effectively. This is not a
criticism of the motives or abilities of
these commissions, but merely of the
fact that it is .not humanly possible
for forty-seven commissions to par
ticipate in any one job and not make
a mess of it. —"The World's Work"
for January.
