ROSS ABDUCTION
MYSTERY REVIVED
Woman Believes Derelict
Who Died From Hunger
Was Long-Missing Man.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 28-The
Charley Ross case, kidnapping mystery
for SO years. was revived today in the
death from hunger of derelict of the
city streets.
Perhaps, like countless others before
it, the new clue to the solution of one
OF the most battling crimes Of American
history may lead nowhere. Scores OF
persons in the years since 4-year- -old
Charley Ross was abducted from in front
Of his Germantown, Pa, home have
claimed to know his whereabouts, but
all have failed in proof.
Mrs. Emma KleinhertZ of Catskill,
N. Y, believes she has evidence that
the Bowery derelict. William Bronson.
of whose death from malnutrition she
read recently in New York newspaper,
was really Charley Ross. Detectives
were in Catskill today questioning her.
Officers SkepticaL
Officers at the Missing Persons Bu-
reau were skeptical when they received
letter from Mrs. Kleinhertz identify
ing Bronson as Ross. She said she
and Ross had been friends all their
lives. He was small boy when she
met him and he told her he was the
Ross boy. She said he gave her papers
in substantiation of what he said and
made her promise she would not dis
close their contents until he died. These
papers, still In her possession, were to
be shown to detectives today.
Charley Ross was years old when
he was kidnapped, So years ago. Brom-
sons age on the death certificate is g..
He had no known relatives living.
There was only one mark of identifi-
cation of the Ross boy-a vaccination
scar A similar scar was the only mark
found on the body of Bronson.
Kidnapped Brother Found.
The promise of fireworks was the lure
used by two men who coaxed the 4
year-old child into their horse-drawn
vehicle the afternoon of July /, 1874
His brother, Walter, 6, was kidnapped
at the same time, but was found crying
on a Philadelphia street corner, miles
away, several hours later.
On December l8 Of the same year
two men were shot and killed during
a robbery. With his dying breath one
of them gasped: MY names Joe
Douglas. With me is William Mosher.
We stole Charley Ross. don't know
where the kid is"
The bodies Of the men were identified
later by Walter Ross as those of the
kidnapers.
A fortune was pent in the hunt for
the boy. One trail led to Albany and
the territory near Catskill. which was
q circumstance that prompted New
York police to check the new clue
today.

A Cold Calls for a
COLD Remedy!

There is no subject on which the
public is in more need Of informa-
ton than the treatment OF COM
mon colds and grippe. First of all,
a cold is cold and requires
COLD remedy. A preparation that
is good for half dozen other things
besides colds can't be as effective
cold remedy as cold calls Tor.
Many popular remedies which
the public takes for colds often
only make relief more difficult be-
cause they are constipating and
also make the system acid.
It is also we'll to remember that
a cold is an internal infection and,
as such, calls for internal treat
ment. Local, or outside applications
only relieve temporarily, if at all.
They can't reach the seat of the
trouble and can't prevent the in
lection from spreading within the
system.
\ Ask your doctor and he'll prob
ably tell you that the closest thing
1 to an ideal cold remedy he knows
of is Groves Laxative Bromo Qui-
| nine. In fact, many doctors frankly
admit that they couldn't write q

MRS. ROOSEVELT STOPS
SIX MINUTES IN CAPITAL
Next First Lady, Flying to New
York From Warm Springs,
Has Brief Visit.

Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, on her
second air visit to the Capital since
Gov. Roosevelt was elected to the
presidency, stopped at Washington
Hoover Airport for six minutes yester-
day afternoon, en- route from Warm
Springs, Ca, to New York. She was
accompanied by Col. Louis M. Howe,
advised to the Governor, and two other
members of her party.
Leaving the President-elect at Warm
Springs, Mrs. RooSevelt's party few to
Atlanta in a special plane and there
boarded the regular afternoon Eastern
Air Transport air liner for New York.
Strong head winds delayed the flight
and consequently Mrs. Roosevelt's stop
at the local airport was cut short and
a crowd of friends and admirers who
had turned out in the chill of the late
afternoon to greet the next First Lady
hardly had time to cheer her before the
plane left for Newark.

Due to Intellectual
Treatment Methods!

Many times a person suffers
three or four colds a season and
thinks it is different cold each
time. AS a matter Of fact, it is
often the same cold repeating it
self, due to inadequate treatment
methods. Only half-cured in the
first place, the cold keeps coming
back and all the time it keeps

When that golfer begins to look

Gentlemen, what happened is that
the big man in the short pants smacked
the ball into two marshes, bordered by
two more marshes on the north, on the
south by plenty marsh and east and
west by the great and greater lakes. Yes
sir, that boy smeared the old gutta

but a golfer will.

GiI sell it back to him for so cents.
And by that time tUo other brands

And knee-deep in mud the goofer
takes another flip at ball from where
the tee ought to be. It dives into the
mire faster than sucker after his roll.
Two caddies watching from tree
notify the player that he is two down
and then confiscate the ball for brisker

But who ever told you a goofer could
be downed? Nope, that baby comes back
with a third ball, standing on what is
now the bed of the Atlantic Ocean. He

he hits at the pellet he is reminded
that he forgot to order tickets for the
motor boat show in Gotham, failed to
club locker and that he never reported
the leaky plumbing in the bath room.
The big boy comedies himself the
second shot on what he thinks is the
bank of the great lakes, all of them
He plays the ball off what he believes
to be a rock. But it is turtles back
and the goofer slides back farther South
than Byrd's Antarctic trip. When he
applies the breaks he is seated uncom-
fortably in a quarry hole, which recol-
lection tells him is not on his home
course at all but located on another

When he reaches a green he knows
that Winter rules will permit him to
use any club. But that ball Is down
so deep 1t will take a derrick and
even Winter rule makers frown on

Diegel said he found 1t continual
source of surprise that so few golf
experts played bridge.
"At any Of the big tournaments"
he said, ''it's difficult to get up a
game. Wild Bill Mehlhorn Is a
great card player and Craig Wood,
George Won Elm and Gene Sarazefl
are good bridge players. However,
I think Mrs. Sarazen plays bet
ter game than Gene, and Mrs. Won
Elm could play with any of
Them" too.
Leo said he always plays his worst
bridge during golf tournament, but
''it's q great way to release the ten
sion that naturally grips golfer
at such times"
Qualifications for good playing,
whether at bridge or golf, Leo said,
are about the same. One should
begin young, have knsck for 1t
and a quick thinking brain. and one
should never lose his self-control,
for that would shake his confidence.
