A Telegraph Operators Doings.

For some time past Harry Converse, a
telegraph operator, residing at No. 1870
Poplar street, and his wife, have not been
on very good terms, owing to the jealous
disposition of Converse. The quarrels have
become very numerous of late, and Mrs.
Converse had concluded to leave her hus-
band. Yesterday afternoon, while Mrs.
Converse was lying on sofa, Harry came
in and sat down along side of her. Pres
entity he threw his arms about her neck and
she perceived hin in the act of drawing re-
volver from under the sofa. He told her to
say her prayers, that her days were num-
bered. With this she wrenched herself
from his grasp, and attempted to make her
escape through a window, but Converse
caught her by the skirts and dragging her
back placed the revolver to her head. As
he pulled the trigger she threw his arm
aside and the bullet just grazed her cheek.
She then managed to free herself and ran
to the house OF neighbor. From letter
found in the clothes of Converse it seems
that he intended to kill his wife and then
commit suicide
