Timothy Molloy, @ resident of St. Lous, recently quarrelled with his wife, anc the two separated, a divorce having been procured im the Missouri courts. The origin of the disagreement is not known; but it was such as to produce great bitterness on the part of Metloy, so that bis late wife finally sought an gg ag = brother at Station, throug! fear ot mal danger. Mollo: stealinily followed her, went to her hotel i seek an interview, ard failing, returned to Chicago. On Wednesday last he went to Lake Station, and found Mrs. Molloy sitting in one of the upper rooms of the hotel, with two of — a children, who were kneeling fore r repeating their evenin, rayer.

The shot whizzed past her ear end im the opposite wall of the apartment. The children, alarmed at the re- port, and at the appearance of the man. sereamed and rushed intoa corner of the room, where they remained terror-stricken and al- most insensible. Finding that the shot had mussed its mark, Molloy drew a large sheath knife from bis belt, and rushing upon the de- | fenceless Woman seized her by the bair, and bending back her head, piunced the blade into ber throat, completely severing the windp: and jugalarvem. The deed was accomplished before any alarm could be given, and the mur- Gerer, brandishing the bloody weapon, and his He passed thr b bar-room, where a samber of men pao asheds round the stove, reached the door, and shout- ing “ Now I am revenged,” fled from the house and Gisay d into the adjacent woods, So } euddenly bad the thing been done, and so com- pletely taken by surprixe were the inmates of the hotel, that no attempt was made to bar his passage.
