Chorus Girl Loses Point in
Breach of Promise Case.

1t is all right for purposes of matri-

for a woman to ascertain the financial
status of her prospective husband,
but in trying to recover damages for
breach of promise, the court will not
assist the Tilted young woman to

This judicial dictum was handed
down in the case of Miss Minnie Fels,

breach of promise. She obtained an
order to examine Winkelman before

Police Say She Told Diff

Finding Lost Girl.
BABY NOT HARMED
BY DAYS ABSENCE
"Mysterious Man" Who
Took Child from Brook
lyn Is Not Discovered.

Gertrude Abramowitz, three and a
half years OLD. whom man snatched
from in front of her mothers home at
1877 Grand Street, Brooklyn, on Wednes-
day, was returned yesterday. Mrs. Dora
Strand, of No. 564 fremont Avenue,
The Bronx. who brought her back. was
arrested, charged with kidnapping.
Under the examination of Captain
Carey, of the Seventh Branch Detective
Bureau, Mrs. Strand told several stories.
About the only point of similarity the
police could discover in them was her
insistence that she had found the
child. At first she was sure 1t was IN
a Third Avenue elevated train that her
attention had been attracted 10 the lit
tie girl: then she thought il was IN City
Hall Park, and finally she decided IT
was in the waiting room OF the Will
iamsburg Bridge Plaza.
Her arrest. the authorities said, was
due to her inability to explain clearly
how she obtained possession Of Mrs.
Abramowitz's daughter. Gertrude, none
the worse for the absence which had
set the machinery of the Police Depart
ment in motion. sending searchers out
in boats with graphing irons, could
throw little light on the problem. The
big man had taken her to the elevated
and to the bridge she declared, and had
given her a sandwich. The lady had
been nice, too, giving her some new
clothes.
The child had been seated in a per-
ambulator outside of her mothers dry
goods store Wednesday afternoon. A
strange man wheeled the carriage away
and few blocks down the street picked
Gertrude up in his arms. Frederic

screamed and promptly tainted.
