Kidnaps Her Own Child.

Frank Gross and wife of Battle Creek created a sensation in Belding, Mich., by kidnaping Edna Passmore, a five-year-old child of Mrs. Gross by a former marriage. The child was forcibly taken from a kindergarten. A chase by the teacher and scholars took place down the street, but the kidnapers jumped into a carriage and drove rapidly toward Lowell. Richard Bristol, grandfather of the child, with whom she has always made her home, pursued the fugitives, but failed to overtake them.
