OILED STREETS KILL
SCENT AND FOIL DOGS
CHICAGO. Oct. 2. The futility of
hunting fugitives with bloodhounds
when the trails of those sought lead
across the modern oiled thorough
fares was demonstrated. in Oak Park
yesterday. Recent wholesale robberies
in that suburb resulted in two dogs
being brought from Hammond, Ind.
The dogs were successful except for
the oiled streets. Fred Crouse, chos
en as the fugitive for the tryoul,
started across the prairie. The dogs
followed his trail so rapidly that he
was unable to make the starting point
before being overtaken. But when on .

A Dash to Death.
ROME, Sept. 30. Tho Dnko of
Chalois dashed to his death over the
Mngon cliffs in an nutoinobilo today.
The lifeless body was found under
a mass of scrap iron 30(1 feet below
tho upper euiliff road by Henry Mar
tin, an American. Tlio duko sprang
into the limelight two years ago be
cause of his marriage with Ethel
Keiu-9, daughter of tho well known
American millionaire. Today's tra
gedy was the result of a running
fight between Martin, an old sweet
heart of tho duchess, and tho duko
because of thu tatter's mistreatment
f his wife. A physical encounter
took place at a well known cafe. The
duko to escape tho savage blows of
the American fled in his nutoiinlilii,
with Martin in hot pursuit. Thus
fleeing for his life in tho excitement
tho duke lost control of his machine
and plunged over tho , cliff to his
death. This exciting story is por
trayed in a picture entitled "A Dash
to Death" at "The Savoy" tonight.
For genuine thrills this picture can
not bo beat. Dmi't miss it. Tho bal
ance of the program includes "Xing
a ra in Winter Dress," its most beau-
fill picture; "The Hunchback," a
drama, and "The Patience of Miss
Job," a laiighogriiph of the first wa
ter. Remember tho Savoy tonight.
