New York, April 27.—Giving as the only reason for having run away from her wealthy parents a romantic desire to see the world and earn her own living, thirteen-year-old Adele Boas, daughter of Arthur BE. Boas, was re- turned safely to her home, after hav- ing been missing since last Friday afternoon. The girl, for whom a reward of $5000 had been offered by her father, had wandered as far as Boston, where she sought and found work at $3.60 a week in a quick lunch place. She aban- doned her dream of making her own way in the world when she cut her finger in the cheap restaurant. Adele was taken to her home by two detectives from the central office, but declares that there is mo use of her father paying the $5000 reward he of- fered, as she returned home volun- tarily. Long before the police knew of the whereabouts of the runaway through their efforts, Mrs. Elizabeth Upton, of Boston, had discovered her identity and telephoned to Inspector McCaf- ferty. The girl was later seen board- ing a train at Boston bound for New York, and detectives went to Stam: ford to meet her. They boarded the train and found Adele. All she would say was that she had left home to go and see the world and make her own living. She said that it was for this purpose that she had saved the $14.80 which she had taken from her bank. On her arrival here the detectives took the girl home in a taxicab. The |Pi door of the Boas home was opened before the taxicab came to a stop, and Estate Transters.
