Skirt Was Torn.

The detectives found that the
woman's hair was disheyeled, one
shoe lace had been broken and the
lacing to the other Shoe loosened,
and her blue serge skirt nearly torn
from her waist.
Back in the deep dark woods
that fringe the lonely and desolatc
shore Of the lake are further evil
dehces OF the single handed fsht
that the woman made with her mur-
derer.
Auto ruts, trail through the
sand, the noise of car and the
presence of an auto veil added to
the mystery.

marks in the sand led to the point
where her body was found Ser

The nearest house is 800 yards

there heard no sounds of the trag-
edy. Even the beach party that was
campcd on the shore near the tragic

Tho heavy roll of the waves
drowned every sound.

it was learned that the woman haC

Why did she seem SO anxious tC
dispose of her ring?
And why did she tell the jewelel
that "35 cents would be enough? 2
The police are puzzled over this
angle of the strange case.

The police have traced the auto

The Minorcas first gained their

distinguish them from the white faced
Spanish. which they resemble in
