"a NDRE,Y JOHNSON'S presidency

Alleged Purse Snatcher,
Chased by Girl, Is Caught
Seeks Escape Over Third Rail
When Indignant Young
Woman Pursues Him

Soloman Sobel would rather take his
chances with third rails and speeding
subway trains than face an indignant
woman who has lost her purse. When
Bessie Walsh pursued him up and
down the Sixty-eighth Street station of
the East Side subway last night, he,
finding no escape, jumped to the tracks
and scurried to the southbound side of
the station.
The desperate expedient failed to aid
him, for as he scrambled to the plat
form on the downtown side, he was
grabbed by Joseph Dowell, a two-fisted
mechanic, who turned him over to
Thomas Dowd and Edward Dorlasky
detectives, who were waiting for a
train. He is now in the Tombs
charged with larceny.
Sobel, thirty, waiter, living at 1928
East Eight Street, was in a rush hour
Jam at Grand Central last night. Miss
Walsh, seventeen, of 1891 Lexington
Avenue, was in the same crowd. So
was Miss Walsh's pocketbook, contain
ing sl.03. In the train Miss Walsh
missed her pocketbook and suspected
Sobel. She glared at him, she saws,
and he "colored up" and when the
train stopped at Sixty-eighth Street he
got of, Miss Walsh after him. She pur-
sued him up and down the platform
until he took to the tracks, dropping
the pocketbook, Miss Walsh saws. in
his flight.

Aunt Continues Fight to
Get Child From Mother
Mrs. Katrina Paxton Refuses to
Accept Judge Tierney's
Ruling as Final

Mrs. Katrina Paxton, of Chicago, re-
fuses to accept as final the action of
Justice Tierney, who last week dis
missed writ Of habcas corpus which
she swore out through her New York
attorney to get the custody of her
three-and half-year-o nephew, Con-
slant L. Fliermans Sd. The child is
here in the custody of his mother, Mrs.
Henrica Bernardina Collet-Fliermans.
Mrs. Paxton applied to Justice Davis
yesterday for an order directing Mrs.
Collet-F'lermans to show cause why
the action of Justice Tierney in dis
missing the writ should not be vacated
and the mother be RESTRAINED from re-
moving the child from the jurisdiction
of the court pending further legal ac-
ton by the aunt to get the boy
Mrs. Collet-Flcrmans was never
married to Constant l.. Fliermans jr,
father of the child, it is alleged. He
is wealthy resident of Chicago and
is now in Holland. Mrs. Collet-
Fliermans, as She has been known. is
native of The Hague, where she met
Fliermans
The mother turned her child over to
Mrs. Paxton, that her son might be as
sured Of good care and training She
later repudiated her agreement, went
to Chicago and in habeas corpus pro-
cecdings got her child back for a
period of fortyhve days. The attor-
ney for Mrs Paxton said he feared
Mrs. Collet-Flicrmans would kidnap
her son and take him from the iuris-
diction of the court.

By the time the Royal George ar
rived at Halifax Miss Buffers love for
Captain Kitchin was overshadowed by
her affection for her chance acquaint-
ance on the Atlantic, and she promised
to marry the British captain of artil
lery.
Captain Kitchin was on the pier to
greet his fancee when the vessel
oocked at Halifax and she confessed
to him her love for Captain Miller.
"This is jolt, Helen," said her first
love, "but you are free to choose be-
tween US"
Kitchin, Captain Miller hurried ashore,
bought a wedding ring and came back
with minister to perform the cere-
mony But it was at this stage of the
romance that the Canadian authorities
interfered. Miss Butler was forthwith
ordered deported aboard the Caronia,
which entered the harbor a few hours
after the Royal George had steamed
out for New York
Captain Miller then entrained for
New York, but Captain Kitchin tarried
and pleaded against the exclusion of
the woman who had forsaken him.

This privilege was refused, and it is
understood that Captain Kitchin is
coming to New York to plead for the
girl at Ellis Island and if possible
give her first class transportation to
England.
Miss Butler said last night that she
had had an understanding with Cap
tain Kitchin that if she did not like
the looks of Canada she need not
marry him.
She had no chance to have fair
look at Canada, the Canadian officials

that it was her favorable impression
of Captain Miller rather than her dis

caused her to change her mind.

New-York tribune., 1920-06-22

Some time to-day two courageous
captains of British artillery in the
World War are expected to arrive here
from Halifax and offer their hearts
and their fortunes to Miss Helen But
ler, young typist of Manchester, who
arrived last night. on the Cunard liner
Caronia from Liverpool.
She has been deported by the Ca
madam authorities, and it is not un-
likely that the officials at Ellis Island
will carry out the wishes Of Canada to-
day after they have brought the young
woman before a board of special in
quiry.
Her Only Offense
Her only offense is that she fell in
love with two men, one of them in
England and the other on the high
seas. and this was what reused the ire
o. the Canadian authorities and caused
her to be deported
Miss Butler told her story last night
in the dining saloon of the Caronia,
and it is substantially the same as
that related by the Canadian immgra-
tion officials to the officers of the liner.
When the war was over and the Cam
adian artillery was passing through
England on its way home, Captain T.
H. Kitchin met Miss Butler in Man
chester. He had won many decorations
for conspicuous bravery and was
exceedingly popular in Manchester.
He knew the Germans and killed
hundreds of them. He understood
women and knew how to be gracious
to them. He didn't know the heart OF
Miss Butler, however, but his loyalty
to her is still unchallenged.
When he started west he asked the
young typist to marry him, and she ac-
cepted the engagement, the under
standing being that she was to come
to Canada for the wedding as soon as
he had sent her passage money.

portation funds and she embarked on
the Royal George from Liverpool. 1t

Mrs. Agnes tombstone, broker in

was going to Miami, Fla, at once to
investigate the death Of her seventeen
year-old son, Ralph E. Johnstone. Dis
patches published yesterday were to
the effect that the youth had shot him
self when surrounded by police who
had a warrant for his arrest on a
charge of assault with intent to kill.
1t was incredible, Mrs. Johnstone
said, that his death could have taken
place under such circumstances.
self" she said. "He was always afraid
of guns. 1t is ridiculous to say that
he tried to shoot any one"
According to the dispatch from Mi
ami Johnstone killed himself last
Tuesday morning when some of his
pursuers were within fifteen feet of
him. The warrant for his arrest had
been obtained by II. G. Tuckerman, of
Miami, who said he had recognized as
Johnstone a man who had fired several
revolver shots into his bedroom win
dow about a. m. Tuskcrman pre-
viously had obtained a warrant for
Johnstone's arrest on a charge of at
tempted blackmail, alleging that John
stone had tried to get money from his
son on threats of telling the elder
Tuckerman how his son had spent a
vacation in New York.
Mrs. Johnstone said that her son had
met the Tuckermans in this city and
gone to Miami with them He had
started publication there called "Tht
Miami Post" she said
Mrs. Johnstone is the widow of Ralph
Johnstone, a pioneer aviator and for
mer holder of the worlds altitude rec
