GIRLS BODY FOUND
FLOATING ON LAKE
Death of Myrtle Hawkins May
Reveal Sensational
Tragedy.

Asheville, n. c., September 1o-The
mystery OF the sudden DISAPPEARANCE
last Thursday of;Aiiss Myrtle Hawkiqe,
of Hendersonyilie. n. c.. aged seven
teen. and remarkably pretty appar-
entity was deepened this morning.
when her dead body was found float
ing in the waters of Lake Oceola
three miles from Hendersonville. Tho
discovery was made by three small
boys who were fishing in the lake
Deep bruises on the head and face
gave rise to suspicious of foul play,
which. however, did not materialize
at the coroner's inquest this afternoon.
when q verdict of death by means
unknown" was rendered.
Miss Hawkins. daughter of w. Fl.
Hawkins, a jeweler of Hendersonville,
left her home last Thursday to do some
shopping. She never returned. Despite
the most rigid search no trace OF her
was obtained until to-day, when the
body was found in a badly decompose d
condition.
1t is stated thar certain evidence in
dicates that the girl was dead before
her body had reached the lake. Re-
ports from Hendersonville tonight
are to the effect that later develon-
ments may prove the death of the
young girl to be one OF the most SEN
sational tragedies in the history of
the State. Lake Oceola fronts I Ike
View Inn, and its banks are traversed
daily by hundreds of carriages and
motor cars

KING ALFONSO SNUBBED

pretty little piece of gossip going
the rounds just now. which seems 10
show that King Alfonso is as tickle a
gay young monarch as he is gallant
And that the royal gallant was snub-
ped BY the fair dame only adds in

The King, so the story goes has
been extremely attentive to Julia
Fons, comic opera singer and star OF
the Theatre de la Comedia. 1t is even
suspected that the charming come
dienne was at Cowes while her royal
admirer was attending the regatta,
and that she was one of the party on
the Duke of Westminster's yacht when
the King and the duke sailed TO the
New Forest, and had quiet picnics in
that royal hunting demesne
Now, II appears. Alfonso's fancy has
changed, and he has been stricken by
the charms of La Fornanina," a mu-
Sic hall dancer, who Is clover and A
tremendous favorite with her audi
ences. 1t was this fair young woman

pointed to the superior court in the
old Bay state took his seat on the
bench when Judge Hugo A. Dubuque
presided at the opening session of the
fall term for Plymouth county at Ply
mouth, Mass. 1t fell to the lot of the
Fall River practitioner to be named
for this responsible and honorable po-
sition by Governor Foss when the
legislature authorized the addition OF
three new members to the court to
help clean up the congested docket.
Hugo A. Dubuque was born in Cav
ignac, Quebec, Canada, November A,
1857, but has lived in Fall River since
1870. He was graduated from Boston
