Police Doubt Girls Story.

The police, however. doubt the story
of Miss Wood, and believe that she
disappeared for one OF two reasons
The first was that she was unable to
face her examination In the high school
to-day, and the second her desire to
become a heroine In a moving picture
play.
The disappearanc Of the girl would

Wood and found In her desk in school

able TO make the translation Is Miss Ione

Wood for tho last three years. She re-
fused. however, to translate the letter.
asserting that she had lost the cipher
key. although most Of their letters for
the last three years were written in
code.
The police believe that Miss LEM
knew Miss Woods whereabouts all the
time but can give no reason for her
not divulging the information. One or
the significant things the police point 10
is, that although Miss Wood says she
walked three-quarters OF a mile from
the station In the rain bareheaded and
in the sweater and plaid dress she wore
when she left the house, her hair was
comparatively dry when she returned.
Experts tried all afternoon to de-
cipher the note left by Miss Wood. but
the only translation that was accom-
plisbcd was these three words. BE

fast did the automobile go. according
to the report, that It passed two toll

Reporters and others have been

A neighbor of Wood, who was sum-
moned to the house when the girl re-
turned, and who acted as a guard there
since, told the newspaper men this
evening that the girl is evidently an
aphasia victim.
Dr. Corn remained in the room with
the girl for about an hour, and then
drove hurriedly away, to return about
half an hour later with some one else,
who was quickly admitted to the house.
The neighbor said that Miss Wood
did not know that she was home. He
said her actions indicated to him that
she had returned home without know

symptoms of aphasia. He did not be-

Of drugs, possibly given to her By per-
sons into whose hands she had fallen.
