MURDER.-A man named Helene has been
arrested in Chicago, charged with the murdei
of his wife, who was killed two years since.
The husband was arrested OF the time Of the
murder, but testimony sufficient to hold him
could not be obtained. He is now arrested in
consequence Of the revelations of a little girl,
about fourteen years of age, and who is the
daughter Of his wife, recently deceased. She
witnessed the murder by looking through a
crack from an upper room, where she was sup
posed to be. in bed asleep. It appears that
now she believes her mother tobe in purgatory,
for having concealed a knowledge of the crime,
and has made the revelation with the expecta-
ton OF thereby affording relief to her mother.
