WEXFORD CAUGHT.
Not Identified by New London Woman Carrying Concealed Weapons.


 Ernest Whitford of this city, sus- pected of an attempt at highway rob bery in New London on the night of April 30, was confronted at the New London police headquarters on We'd nesday by Mrs. Oliver $. Cooper, but she could not identify him as the man who snatched the pocketbook from her arm.
 Whitford, who has been away since the night of April 30, was arrested in New London Tuesday night by Rail road Detective Vincent and g. New London policeman. Detective Vincent saw him drop off a freight Tuesday night.
 Whitford claimed his name was Frank Broadway, but admitted his A Backus hospital admittance card and a letter in his name were found on him.
 An essential find in Whitford's s clothing was a sheated knife with a blade five and a half inches in length. The concealed weapons law covers the case and makes it a crime for Whitford to have a blade or over four inches length in his possession. He was locked up for carrying a weap- on concealed upon his person.
 Wednesday morning he was present. ed before Judge Colt and without be- ing put to plea his case was continued until Saturday. A complaint con- taining two counts. theft and carry ing concealed weapon, was filed against him. Judge Colt fixed bonds at $250. in default of which Whitford went to jail.
 Miller who is serving out fine for trespass on railroad property in | Norwich, will be taken to New London | Saturday to testify against Whitford
 Had Whitford not gone to New Lon i don Tuesday night, Chief Murphy and his men would probably have arrested him here, as they had his haunts To- cated and were all ready to close the net around him.

Complexion Secrets
 Of An Actress"

In a recently issued volume bear ing the above title, the author says: continuous use of grease paints, rouge and the like, had ruined my complexion. My skin was colorless, wrinkled, fiabby, coarse and punctured with large pores. In England l heard of the virtues of mercolized wax; my first experience with this marvellous substance convinced me it was more valuable than all cosmetics combined. Now whenever my complexion begins to go wrong l get an ounce of mer- coliZed wax at the nearest drug store spread on a thin layer of it before re- tiring, washing it off next morning. The wax, after q few such treatments, seems literally to absorb the worn-out cuticle, when brighter, healthier, younger looking skin appears.
 For the enlarged pores, wrinkles and fiabbiness, l began using solu- tion of saXolite, one ounce, dissolved in a half pint witch hazel. Bathing the face Tn this soon .elieved the cons iitieR mast ~sRderf0ily.i
