TODAY
Rin-TiR-Tin Saued
Hotel From FIRE

Fire which threatened to wipe
ont the entire town of Victorville,
California, was checked and final
~ extinguished through the ef-
forts Of the Rin-Tin-Tin company
on location for the Warner Bros.
production Of "The Clash Of the
Wolves" which shows at the Mon
roe Theatre today.
The fire was traced to an over
heated iron in a tailoring shop
next to the hotel where the troupe
Of about fifty which included di-
rector Noel Smith, the stars, Rim
Tin-Tin, June Marlowe and
Charles Farrell, and technical
men and cowpunchers, were stay
ing. The company vase just
finishing the evening meal IN the
hotel dining room when they were
disturbed by the barking of
"Rinty," who had been locked in
his masters, Lee Duncan's, room
next to the tailoring shop until
after supper.
As the barking became more
and more furious, Mr.. Duncan in
vestigated and found some smoke
creeping IN through the open
window. Looking out, he beheld
the roof Of the one-story tailor
ing shop next door a mass of
flames and the side of the hotel
beginning to burn, He gave the
alarm at once and the company
turned ont in force and managed
to save the hotel, although the
shop was completely consumed.
Since the town was too small
for a fire department, a bucket
line was hastily formed and the
sides and rooms Of the hotel and
other buildings were hung with
naturated blankets. About 10
o'clock the fire was out and, led
by the mayor, the thousand or so
inhabitants extended three cheers
and vote of thanks to "Rinty"
and the company. A framed copy
of this resolution has been added
20 the many awards Of various
kinds which adorn the walls and
tables Of his "office" and is, Lee
Duncan assures US, one Of his
proudest possessions.
The Clash of the Wolves was
written by Charles A. Logue.

MURDER AND SUICIDE
Reading Man Apparently Killed His Wife and Then Jumped in Front of Train Himself.

Reading. Pa, Dec. 16 tPl-Work- ing separately on an apparent mur- der and suicide last night, the police found their clues running together and discovered a family tragedy 24 hours old.
 Mrs. Mabel Snyder, % was found dead in her home, her body mutil- ated and the house in disorder. thrown himself into the path of a train. last night was identified as her husband. Harold Snyder. %.
 Noting the woman's absence a sister informed the police who went to the Snyder home and broke in a door. They found furniture over turned in the kitchen and signs of a struggle. Lying on a cedar chest in a bedroom was the body of Mrs. Syder. carefully dressed and ar ranged. but clawed and scratched and with the neck blue from chok- ing.
 Among q second squad of detec- tives sent 10 the house. was one which earlier in the day had tried to identify q man who leaped into the path of a freight train Tuesday night. When it was noted by neigh bors that the husband was missing, he looked in a family album. and found a picture Of the husband which he recognized as the man who had committed suicide.

DANGEROUS PART 0F ARMY FLIGHT
Occurs Where High Mountains
 Drop to Sea

San Antonio, Dec. 6 LP-Despite the fact that the armys Pan-Ameri- can flight, which is planned to go under way here December 20, will cross mountain chains four times in it's circuit of the nations south of the Rio Grande, the most dangerous sec tion of the flight is the long stretch of the western coast of South Ameri- ca where the mountains drop per cipitously into the sea.
 On this section of the trip the fly CTS expect to meet the most trouble some winds of the whole journey and the danger of a forced landing is great. The continental shelf drops abruptly into the sea and the coast in many places is devoid of any level spots that might offer a landing. Be- cause of the winds and the steep shores the breakers are apt to be high and the surf heavy. Should any of the flying boats be forced down under such conditions the flyers would be in grave danger.
 The high breakers are apt to wet the spark plugs, or other portions of the ignition system. cutting off the engine and leaving the ship without any Iraeans of holding her course. In such a case the plane might be cap- sized, broken up on the rocks or swept far out to sea before help could arrive.
 The mountains will offer little dif- ficulty in the opinion of the flyers. Crossing Mexico the squadron will be able to avoid the peaks and the same is true of the two trips across Panama to Cartagena Colombia and return. The Andes will be crossed at their lowest point and the ships, if necessary can soar 600 feet above the floor of the pass, which is 6,000 feet above sea level

BRIDE OF BARON
 ASKS ANNULMEN7
Copper Kings Daughter Claims
 Misrepresentation

New York, Dec. 16 LD Baron George Tornow's bride, heiress to the copper fortune of Joseph Clendenin, is seeking an annulment She went home to father a few hours after the marriage.
 George w. Whiteside, counsel for the baroness, formerly Florence Marjorie Clendenin. revealed last night that preliminary papers had been served Monday in suit against the former colonel in the Russian Imperial army. The suit charges that Miss Clendenins married the baron because of fraudulent misrep- restntations. which Whiteside did not reveal. but which she soon found to be false.
 The baroness eloped two weeks ago from the house of her father, who is vice. president of the Amcri- cal Smelling and Refining Co. and married the baron after cruising the streets of New York in q taXicab, searching for some one who would officiate. She left him that night when her father interrupted the wedding supper,
 Had these misrepresentation been so known to her before the wedding" said Whiteside, "it would not have taken place. The law re- gards misrepresentation as a fraud and permits annulment of a mar riage obtained on misropresenta- tion."
 George s. Reynolds, counsel for the baron, charges that the baroness has been kept under guard in her home and prevented by her parents from living with her husband or talking to him over the telephone.
 Baron Tornov says he cannot un- derstand why his bride had left him and why her parents opposed the marriage He denied he had mis- represented anything regarding him self to his bride or her family. He says he is hopeful the matter will be adjusted and that the marriage will not be annulled.

PRINCESS ASKING
 TO BE DIVORCED
Says Husband, Supposed Dead, Is Alive, Asking Blackmail

 RfSTzSES6dHE31

Soon there came q letter rom Turin demanding s20,0oo in return for his self -effacement and when she showed it to Schutz she told him "Wally, I have no right to live with you, I must go to my husband. My place is with him"
 She has not seen Captain Schutz since. nor did she succeed in locating Turin but her third husband had their marriage annulcd in Green Bay. Wis.
 The case was further complicated by records that showed Turin sued the princess for divorce here in 1921 naming Captain Schutz. This action was never tried and in March of this year a Victor A. Turin who gave Tiffels, Georgia. as his birthplace was married in New York to a Miss Anna Hearons, former overseas war ,worker, who came from Millerstown, Pennsylvania.
 The princess says she escaped from Siberia by way of Japan when the Bolsheviki forces overturned the Czarist army in Russia. She was several times wounded in battles with the Reds, she declares.
 But when the princess married Captain Schutz, Commissioner Bouimestrow, the Russian prole- tariat representative of the Red Cross in New York, was reported to have declared he never heard of the title. She says her first husband, the prince, died before the catastro- phe which enveloped the imperial house.
 Tn her present action, the princess name appears as Mrs. Nadine Turin. The case has been continued by Justice Hall who has requested fur ther documentary evidence be sub mitted.
