He wes killed because they gave him a dose that would have-finished a baby ele- phant, The case js similar to one a few weeks ago, when a gang of thugs tn the same neighborhood, experimment- ing with knockout drops, tried a dose on one of the members and he dfed before they could get away from him. The discoyery of Bubrowsky in a dying condition and the arrest of Lentz was brought about by Bruno Roland, janitor of the bullding at No. 221 Hast Eleventh Street, in which Lent# had a room on the third floor, had heard strange noises and asked Lents the meaning of them.
