j there Is no beats for such a belief.

Shu had been extremely nervous la
Itself an alarming symptom, since She
had been an athletic, strong girl of un
usually cheerful dleeposltlon and for a
week pssi she had been given to uaac
oountable 1,1 apaila, usually in the
111.. ruing, lie lather and mother had at-
1 trlbuted her condition to overatudy.
Detectives Brisrton and statea, as-
Stgned to in,.,,., a search for the girl
I l direction of Mayor Kline, a nersnnai
friend of Mr. Mc 'aim, have found the
ras- In many respects like that of ths
unfortunate Iiorothy Arnold, who
walked away from her home and was
never hrd of again.
The detectives ar.. looking for a

the glrl'a father or her brother, Robert
il. McCann Jr., who vtaited Police Head
quarters this morning and examined she

That she has had a nervous break

her temporarily of her reason seems
moat likely to them. Three month, ago
alia beggn to exhibit eymptoma of eg
tii tuc nervousness, which gradually be
an,., worse until Dr. Durham of No. 32.
