Pittsburgh, Pa, Nov. 4.-County De

had her held for assault and battery.
It is charged that the girl kidnapped

Coraopolis.
The Lusher child disappeared from
the front porch of her parents home.
A search of the village was made,
but no trace of the child was found.
A feud has existed for months be-
tween the Lusher and Stasco families,
and when a vain search Of the town
had been made Frank Lusher, brother
of the missing girl, informed the po-
lice that some member of the Stasco
family could probably tell what be-
came of little Lucy. Members OF the
Stasco family were questioned, but
nothing was learned from them.
The county detectives were called
in and took with them two of the
county's police dogs. The hounds went
from the Lusher home to the Stasco
home, and then to the woods more
than a mile away. Here the Lusher
child was found almost wholly Gov
cred with earth. On top of her were
piled lumber and brush. 1t took the de-
tectives more than five minutes to dig
the child out.
When Gazelle Stasco was accused
Of burying Lucy she confessed, and
said she did it because her family was
determined to get revenge for some
alleged wrong they had suffered at
the hands of the Lusher family some
months ago. The Lusher child is in a
critical condition.
