proceeding brought by Mr.. Jennie
Cohen, of STA West 176th Street, who
divorced tho defendant, for the pos

tanned divorce from Safchick in 1918
in Kings County, where the order for
his arrest was issued by Just ce Bene-
dict. Both have remarked.
In July, 1919, said Mrs. Cohen. a
month before her remarriaee Safchick
went to the home of her parents at
425S Sixty-fourth Street, Brooklyn,
where she was living with her daugh
ter and prevailed upon her TO ,ermit
him to take Beatrice to San Francisco,
promising to return the child On his
next trip East, in January, 1920.
Safchick came TO New York that
month, but Beatrice was not with him.
Mrs. Cohen demanded an explanation
of his failure to return their daughter.
1t is alleged that the merchant said he
thought it best not to bring the child
on account of the existence of inAu-
enza here at the time and made his
faithful promise" to bring her back
in July, 1920. Mrs. Cohen says she had
not seen her former husband since
January, 1920. About a week ago SAT
chick wrote to Mrs. Cohen that Bea.
trice did not want to return, she al.

The arrest of Safchick was effected
to prevent his leaving the jurisdiction
OF the court before steps could be
taken to have him punished for con.

The 1921 conference originally was
appointed for the church at Danville

Mt Vernon congregation became the
entertaining church. Fifteen churches
or congregations from all parts of the
county were represented by large del
