MISSING GOTHAM GIRL
BACK AT SAN|TAR|UM
Disappearance of Miss Ro-
mona Borden Declared to
Have Been Only a Lark.

NEW YORK. April 24.-Miss Romona
Borden is back at the New Jersey sani-
tarium from which she was kidnapped"
late yesterday. According to the sani-
tarium authorities she returned last night
after dining with friends in Newark.
There is no mystery about it," said a
nurse at the hospital. Miss Borden sim
ply took a sudden notion to take an auto
mobile ride with friends. That's all
Counsel for Gail Borden, multi-million-
aire father of the girl. explained today
that it was probably nothing more than
lark on the part of Miss Borden which
caused her unceremonious departure from
the sanitarium yesterday. She had not
been committed to the institution, but
had gone there on the advice of a ply
sician to recuperate from near break
down.
The police of this city and contiguous
New Jersey territory pursued today the
search begun last night for Miss Bor-
den. The girl was taken or persuaded to
leave the vicinity of a sanitarium at
Pompton Lake, \. j., yesterday after an
exciting series of incidents.
Suffering From Nervous Breakdown.
The missing girl was supposed to be in
the custody of two elderly women, whose
identity is not made known.
Miss Borden had gone to the santa rum
to recuperate from a nervous breakdown.
In company with a nurse she was en-
joying stroll about the sanitarium yes
terday, when two women drove up in an
automobile and signaled to her. The
nurse was told that the women would
like to give the couple ride and accept
ed. They drove to a hotel in Newark
and while the nurse was telephoning from
the hotel to the sanitarium to explain her
absence the two women and Miss Borden
suddenly disappeared. The nurse and a
policeman set out in taXicab in a vain
endeavor to find the party.

The contest in the charger class at

character that had it happened two or
three years earlier we would have had

sary to bring about high ideals and laud-
able results. The competitions in various
horse shows are producing rapid and
valuable results in the service and. best
of all, the expenditures involved are ex-
tremely small.
.'At all the posts in the country where
there are mounted posts, a healthful
rivalry has been produced. and those who
appear at public contests where horses
are concerned have been selected by
their commanding officers as the most
deserving and most likely to represent
properly his post. 1t is clear that the
unusual work involved in this training
of men and horses rebounds to the ef-

Change Brought About.

During the past three or four years,
said Col Allen, 1.-The ideas of the average
mounted officer have undergone radical
change as to the appearance and demands
that his horse or charger should satisfy.
1t logically follows that his views to
what the troop horses Should be have
correspondngly changed. This can be
attributed largely to the perseverance of
the War Department in its effort to bring
about a different standard and by its
authorization to army officers to compete
al horse shows and military events.
AS long army officers saw only the
mounts purchased and utilized generally
in the service. they knew of really good
horses only from pictures and for the
most part gave little attention to the
thought of owning such. The horse show
in it's various ramiticatons has shown
our officers their shortcomings in this
respect, and they also have learned from
these contests that their mounts can by
proper handling and training be radically
improved in appearance and in action.
