Bijou Smuggled Trove on Turin Train Foiled by Thieves
Miss Norfolk-Stanley travels with her small dog Bijou in a leather bag on a Turin to Modane train. Two yellow-clad women aim to rob her using chloroform and a smelling bottle, while disguising as passengers. Bijou alerts a guard, aiding recovery. Nephew Dick later exposes the thieves, and Bijou retires to country life as investigators note a spate of similar thefts in 1875–77.
