MISS KAYE’S CHARACTER. PRETTY AND SWEET NATURED. London, May 6.— Events arc moving rapidly in connection with the Eastbourne bungalow mystery.

Her club-mates says that Miss Kaye was a pretty, sweet-natured girl, and wildly happy over her prospective marriage. She was never visited by men, and tennis was her chief hobby.

The motor driver and other people at Eastbourne,are emphatic that there was a second dark woman, whose sobriquet was “The Countess.” Mahon’s mother is living at Liverpool. Mahon has been living with his wife and daughter at Richmond. He is an Irishman, and a well-known member of the Mid-Surrey Bowling Club.
