Horrible Murder near Saratoga.

A dispatch from Saratoga Springs
of the LIST March says a horrible MUIR
der was committed last night at Does
Corners, small settlement in the
town of Wilton, about four miles north
of the springs. George Lee and his
father, farmers living in the village,
had gone to attend political town
caucus, leaving James H. Standish, a
single man who owned the farm, but
lived with the Lee family, at home.
On the return of Lee and the father
the wife of George Lee charged Stand
ish with insulting her. This led to
an alteration, in which Standish
seized hot flatiron from the stove
with which he struck Lee a terrible
blow on the head, telling him to the
floor, in which position he continued
to strike him with the iron till the
mans head was crushed to a horrid,
unshapely mass and his brains scat
tered over the floor. Standish was ar
rested and brought to Saratoga, where
he is now in Jail. None of the parties
appear to have been in liquor. Lee
was a peaceable man, and held in
high regard by his neighbors. He was
about forty years old. Standish moved
into town about year ago. He is n
single man of some property, and of
no apparent evil habits. In his cell
to-day he complained of a bad head
ache, but did not seem to fully realize
the terrible crime he had committed
or the awful consequence of it,.

A Woman's Throat Cut.

At quarter to u o'clock this fore
noon, in the International Hotel, at X
and Fourth streets, John III. Cook
made n savage attempt to murder his
wife by cutting her throat and stab
bling her. AT that hour Angus
Martin, the proprietor of the hotel
who was in the hotel office, heard
the screams of q woman, and
at once rushed into the parlor,
whence they appeared to come. He
saw Cook holding his struggling wife
down on the sofa and striking at her.
Cook heard Martin enter, and instantly
loosening his hold, turned to Martin
and said he would give himself up.
The latter, seeing the blood spouting
from the wOman's neck and running
down her clothing, ran to her to
staunch' the wounds. Others who
had heard the screams now came
pouring in, and in the excite
ment Cook slipped quietly out of the
room, ran hastily through the hotel,
with which he is we'll acquainted, out
the back way, Though the stable,
leaped the fence into the. alley, and
ran down the alley toward Front
SCIcel. Ill lcSS GIidil ttii lll1luUeS dlteI
the first alarm Captain Stevens and
officers Dolan, Rider, Shellars, and
Morales arrived, and having learned
the course of the fugitive they were
quickly on his track. The wounded
woman was removed to q bedroom,
and a physician having been sum-
moned it was found that none of the
cuts were fatal. She had been cut
three times in the throat, one Oh the
right side, long but not deep, and two
smaller cuts on the left. She had also
been stabbed in the left side through
her corsets, but neither is this wound
serious.
John Fl. Cook and the woman whom
he tried to murder, came from Nevada
here in last September. 1t is alleged
that she is the wife Of Il man living in
Nevada, and that she eloped from him
at that time with Cook. Cook has
since been occasionally. employed on
the railroad here as yardman, but has
recently been at Rocklin and other
places on the line of the road on other
business. His wife remained at the
International until few days since,
when she went to another hotel, her
object being to get rid of her second, so
far as known, man. Cook returned a
few days since and staid at the
International. To-day the woman
went there on business, and it is sup
posed was seen by Cook. No others
were in the parlor at the time, and the
immediate presidents of the cutting
are unknown. Cook carried off the
knife, which is thought to have been
common pocket-knife. Cook was
arrested last night.-[Sacramento Bee,
