All through that night and through another day and another night the father walked and ran, tolling through the deep sand, falling Into the water, but not even a print of her bare feet did he find. "The gypsies told me they bad seen

a little girl going up a road toward the lake," said he. "But maybe they said that Just to get me to go away. I ran up the road until I came to the lake, but I did not find Annie. "All the night I hunted, and called her, but I could not make her hear. Now I can run on more I cannot stand,. I cannot hunt farther, and Annie is not found." And he took his head between his hands and wept. Police Use Motorcycles. The police on motorcycles found no moretrace of Annie than did her father. They went over all the roads about -East Chicago, and asked everywhere, and searched the gypsy camp, but no Annie.

There were no men yesterday when

they went to the camp, and all the

gypsy -women shook their heads when

the police asked, and said: "Our men? They go away. W"e not know where." They will try again tomorrow.

It has been reported to the police

that the gypsy band has divided Into several smaller bands, and Annie may

be with some of them in another place.

How She Was Dressed.

v hen she left home she wore a red

dress striped with blue, with white

checks, and with a black ribbon

around her yellow curls. If the

gypsies have her and want to keep her

they have stained her hair by now and

put another dress on her and hav given her another name, and have told

her that if people come asking for her

and she makes a sign to let them

know who she is, or speaks a word

something very, very dreadful will

happen to her.

So it may well be that her papa will

go through the camp where she Ns and

look at her and not know her for his

own little girl, and she will not dare

speak or move maybe would even

shake her head If he should speak to

her.

And it may be. as the policemen fear, that she lies at the bottom of the canal or that her body is hidden in the woods somewhere about the lnke or ly the river.

However, the cjty can't see it that way and the officials will demand that Gavit keep his promises.
