Killed and Thrown in Lake.

AshevlIe. y. c.. Sept. lit is now be-
lieved that Miss Myrtle Hawkins, whose
body was found in Oceola Lake, near Hell

dered. and suspicion is centring upon
man whose trail is being holly followed.
The suicide theory has been abandoned.
Indications are that the girl was muir
dered. but not robbed or assaulted. The
condition of the body shows that life was
extinct when placed in the water. and that
the victim was chloroformed.
