Shot His Wife.

London, Jan. 2l.-One of the
mott remarkable cases of somnam-
bulism ever recorded occurred
early this morning at Stockwell,
when John Lake, a Secret Ser 'ice
agent, rose from his bed and shot
his wife twice with a revolver,
withc ut being conscious Of what
he had done. 1t was a minute or
two before his wife succeeded in
waking him. Then she took the
revolver from his Land and threw
it out Of the room. y
The man was overcome With
surprise and horror when he real
lied what he had doue, He dressed
hurriedly and went out and
brought a doctor, who found that
his wife was wounded in two
places near the knee She was
removed to the hospital, where
the bullet was extracted. She is
reported to be progressing salts
torily.
Interviewed later, Lake gave a
striking story of his expenences.
81 think | must have been

one, "he said, land that wac why
the report of the revolver did not
awaken me.
when l went to bed l left q
loaded revolver lying on the dress
ing table. l always have had a
revolver since l was in the Aus
TRAN Secret Service, having had
to travel all over the .wcrld in
that. servios watching anarchists
aud the like.
"My somnambulism started
eight years ago. In my sleep l
used to play silly pranks, on one
occasion clearing the room of fur
niture. One night l walked in
nv sleep from Remington road
to Lamar street, and there began
to walk in and out Ct doors until
arrested. When awoke my moth
