Frederick Cunnin CHAM and Frank

trying to get away with trunks con-
tanning $4,000 in stamps stolen from
the postoffice at Richmond, Va, the
detective force believes it made one of
the most important captures in years.

EDDY" Fay, a much wanted fugitive,
whose picture is in every rogue's gall
larry of Importance and for whose APP
prehension a total of about $4,000 in
rewards have been offered in various
cities. This prisoner is the one known
as Cunningham.
According to the detective bureau,
Fay is wanted in Los Angeles, Cal. for
blowing the safe of the postoffice in
1905 and getting away with $1O,73S
worth of stamps and $4,000 in gold.
There is $1,000 reward for his capture
for this crime
Five years ago in Peoria, ILL.,, he blew
the safe of the poStoffice and got away
with $4,000 worth of stamps.
A year later he again blew the same
safe and this time made off with $74, 900
worth of stamps. He was convicted
and sentenced to jail in Springfield.

short time later. He also broke Jail

Fay, the detectives say is worth
from 100000 to 100000 and owns a
string of race horses. The police say
they don't know much about the man
caught with Fay.
The Richmond postoffice safe was
blown some me between Saturday
night and Monday morning and $S5, 900
worth of stamps and $1,000 in cash
taken.
The capture of the men here was
sensational. Detectives disguised as
baggagemen at the Grand Central
were waiting when Chester drove up
in an automobile and sent a boy in
with the check for one of the trunks
containing the plumber which had
been traced here. While two of the
detectives came out and nabbed Ches-
ter, who fought desperately, but was
speedily subdued, other officers spied
Fay nearby and made for him. He
was caught after q long chase. A
third man who was with the captured
pair, got away. Fay, the detectives as
sert, was one of the gang that robbed
the postoffiee in Chicago in 1901,
getting $4,000 in stamps.
When Fay faced the camera in the
identification bureau at headquarters
here today he made a stubborn fight
against having his picture taken. For
two hours he rolled on the floor,
twisted his face out of shape and de-
spite all efforts made the taking of
his picture impossible.

Thousands Of women vainly attempt

cause the trouble lies far deeper than
the skin. They are suffering from I'M
pure and impoverished blood. This
Condition is N many cases due to
catarrhal condition of the whole sys-
tenn which finds it's expression in sal
low, muddy complexion, dark-circled
eyes, general weakness of the system,
and perhaps most plainly in the weep
ing of mucous membranes that is COM
monty called catarrh.

catarrh, and the complexion Will clear

BANKED IN OLD IRON BOX.
Robbers Entered Frank Bader's Home
and Took All His Gold.

Dodge City, Kan, March 90
Frank Bader, retired blacksmith
here, lost all faith in banks several
wears ago when the institution in
which he had his money failed. He
declared he never would place anoth-
er cent in a bank. and he never did.
Instead he banked his money in an
old iron box and secreted it in the
basement of his home. There was
$2,7oo of it last night when Bader put
it carefully away. Every cent was in
gold.
During the night robbers entered
the basement and after drilling a hole
in the box carried away the money.
Bader is now pennileSs.
