They know that Cadillac is unique. They know there is nothing with which to compare its regal beauty, or the superb performance of its highly developed 90-degree, V-type, eight-cylinder engine. They know, too, that they pay not a penny of premium for Cadillac's highly-prized exclusiveness.

Malachi Crowe Starts Prison Term at Joliet Malachi Crowe, the Negro ex-con- vict arrested in Kansas City, Kansas, last week and returned to Chicago to answer to a charge of a brutal assault on Miss Ruth Sampson, a white nurse, is now at Joliet, serving a term of from sixty years to life in the peni- Crowe was sentenced by Judge Brothers Monday of this week. The crime, for which he was sen- tenced, was committed in Winnetka last summer, since which time Crowe has been a fugitive, but during which time he has been ceaselessly sought, the search being spurred on by the $1,600 reward offered for his arrest, $600 of which was by the Village of Winnetka. A chance circular given to Ernest Williams, 5041 South Wabash avenue (whose name was on the list the Win- netka police furnished), by Officer Wellington Britton, of Chicago, was the means of capturing Crowe, it is said. It was Williams who aided Crowe in getting out of Chicago, by giving him a white jacket and allowing him to ride in the kitchen of the dining car on which Williams was chef. He sheltered him in Kansas City, until he obtained a position and kept Crowe in- formed on police activities. For this kindness, Crowe recipro- cated in a manner which aroused the jealousy of Williams, who at once gave information to the Chicago officers which resulted in his arrest. TO SAIL FOR EUROPE Mrs. Walter F. Wallace and her debutante daughter, Miss Virginia, of 815 Mt. Pleasant road, plan to sail from New York March 10, on the Roma.
