Dog Gives Life to Save
Master From Hold-Up
Grips Robbers Leg as He Is
About to Fire and Is Shot
as Thief Fiees

=, A mastiff dog, owned by Michael
Martarch, an Austrian, who conducts
a restaurant at 484 Eleventh Avenue.
gave his life last night to save his
master from hold up men.
Martarch was closing his restaurant
at about $3.50 o'clock, when two men
entered and demanded the cash re-
reipts."
Il don't know what you mean," said
the proprietor, whereupon one of the
ntruders drew a revolver and ordered
him to put up his hands.
Instead of complying, Martarch
threw a chair. The man ducked and
raised his pistol again to fire when
the mastitf, which had been living in
a corner, ,sprang at him and gripped
him by the leg. The companion of
the man with the gun fled, and mo-
ment later the dog fell with a bullet
through his skull. The gunman fired
again as he limped through the door
and broke Martarch's wrist.
Both robbers had escaped before the
police appeared.
The persistent barking of Rolf, a
Dalmatian dog, owned by Hugo Baer,
costumer, who employs four girls
on the second floor of 1855 Third Ave
nue., probably saved the lives of all
five yesterday. The animal would not
be stilled until he had led Bacr into
the hallway. There the man smelled
smoke and gave the alarm. The fire
was in the La Festima Cigar Comnanv
on the floor below.
