DOWN CRIME
OF MOTOR CAR THIEVES
French Police Arrest Two Men
With Stolen Bank Stock
in Their Possession.
Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.

OTclsH Correspondence OF Inc star.
PARIS. March 30. 1912.
The local police have arrested two men
who were in possession of $4,000 worth
of shares stolen from the bank mes
senger in the Rue Ordener crime. This
marks a great step toward the solution
of one Of the most difficult criminal prob
lens with which the police have had to
deal. The famous robbery. committed by
a gang of five in a motor car, dates back
to December II of last year. In spite OF
the fact that the whole detective force
has been modified to capture the thieves,
none but indirect accomplices or persons
suspected Of being such had hitherto been
caught
The members of the same gang mean
while are thought to have had time to
commit another outrage by killing a pO-
liceman in the Place du Havre. They
disappeared again, and were next report
ed to be securing about in Holland where
they had robbed another motor car. which
was abandoned at Client. The Paris po-
lice successfully arrested four persons
near Nogent connected with a mysterious
motor outrage, and two others, Dieudonne
and Bouy. in Paris.
Dieudonne was alleged to have been
identified by Caby. the bank messenger.
as the man who fired on him and robbed
him. Dieudonne has brought forward a
strong alibi, and BOuy seems to be only
vaguely connected with the pair. The re-
suit was meager after nearly three
months of active search. But something
more palpable has been achieved. The
shares found with the arrested men are
some of those which were stolen from
Caby. There is no doubt about that, as
they are numbered and classified.
When the question was put to Dieu-
dome about the shares he said that he
had no idea of what was in the parcel.
1T was given to me by man in a cafe
in the Boulevard Clichy." This was all
that he would say.

HOW TO RESIST
Chronic Coughs and Colds.


Strong. vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get foot
hold.
Now isn't It reasonable that the
right way to cure cough is to build
I'D your strength again?
Mrs. Olivia Parham, OF East Dur
ham, N. c., says: II took Vinol for
chronic cough which had lasted two
wears. and the cough not only disap-
neared, but it built up my strength
as well"
The reason vinol is so eficacious IN
such cases is because it contains in a
delicious concentrated form ell the
medicinal curative elements or cod
liver oil. with tonic, bodybuilding
2ron added.
Chronic coughs ard colds yield tn
yinol because It builds up the weak
ened. rundown system.
You can get your money back any
time if vinol does not do all we say.
