GREAT HARRINGTON.

The preliminary trial of Egbert N.
 Parks and Mrs Julia l.. Markham, of New Marlboro, who were arrested month ago on 8 charge of adultery, came before Judge Shores in the Dist rict court last Saturday at 2 p. m. and continued, with the exception of a half
 hour recess for supper, until II o'clock at night. The court room was packed with men and women, chiefly from Mill River and other parts of the town and all minors under Is years were excluded from the room. Lawyer Collins, of this village, conducted the prosecution, and Lawyer Joyner, of this place, with Clark, of Lee, appeared for the defense Twenty witnesses were examlned for the prosecution, and though no posi- tive evidence was given, it all tended to show that the party have sustained pretty close relations to each other.
 Mrs Markham has a husband who resides at home part of the time, and Parks. who lives but few rods from the Markham house, has wife in DO or health. The intimacy, according to the evidence, consisted in the accused being in each others company almost every day and riding together, especially at night, with Mrs Markham's horse and carriage. One witness testified that he saw the accused enter pine grove on one occasion in the evening. The defense made 8 general denial of the crime, but admitted that they had been together a few times, but only when business was to be transacted, as Parks worked for the mother of Mrs Mark ham, who has land in the vicinity. The lawyers made half-hour pleas for their respective sides, and the judge, after reviewing the evidence held the party for the grand jury at the next term of the Superior court at Pitts6eld About 40 feet of the great wall which sus- tains the earthwork on the north side of the highway up Monument Mountain fell down last Friday and several feet of the road was carried with the wall. Selectman Chadwick went out and caused temporary repairs to be made, but the wall will have to be rebuilt :. .. The county commissioners held hear ing in the court room last Thursday and Friday in relation to the proposed new road from the top of three mile hill along the southeastern shore of Lake Buel, to w. c. Underwood's, near Harts- vile. Lawyer Joyner appeared for the petitioners and Lawyer Wood, of Pitts. field, for the opposition. A number of citizens of this village and northeast New Marlboro testified for the proposed road, which they claim will be more level route than the old roads and 8 convenient road for pleasure seekers to Lake Buel. Several leading citizens o1 South New Marlboro and Monterey opposed the scheme and gave evidence that the great expense will outweigh the benefit, A farther consideration o1 the subject was adjourned to meeting of the commissioners at Pittsfeld, July 3d =. Permission has been granted by the County Commissioners for the par
 chase of 8 new carpet for the court room ... The VanDeusenville and Afford boys play game of ball at Seekonk

Butte, Montana, learned in a small way the
othsr day the lesson which has impressed itself
more harsnly upon many other cities. Its opera
house, the JOY and pride of every patriotic citizen
was burned 10 the ground. The loss, in hard cash.
Is estimated at $4,000, and there was less than
$4,000 Insurance on II. At first glance 1t would
appear piece OF folly 70 put so large an amount
or money into a hall OF amusement and insure it
% lightly; but the manager believed that he
hac building as well protected against fire as
any west OF the Mississippi river. IL had a thor
ough system OF water-pipe, perforated so that, by
the simple turning OF KEY, any part OF the house
could be showered with a spray at an instant's
notice. But, unfortunately, the defence being
there, nobody concerned himself 10 see that it was
In working order. The flames burst forth; the
manager tried 10 turn on a stream, but IL was op-
structed somewhere on the way to the distributing
point, and the whole structure lay presently in
ashes What occurred In Butte may be repeated
IN effect any day In Washington, perhaps In a
theater, perhaps In hotel perhaps in some large
ocnce-building, though there may be visible yards
OF hose and plenty OF sturdy hands ready to utilize
IL II Is not fire defences simply That are needed
but the vigilance which gives assurance that they
are always In working order.

The question OF the effect OF the lack Of Jury in
the Police Court Is involved In the certiorari in
the case OF the Baltimore and Ohio engineer
charged with running his train at a speed greater
than twelve miles an hour within the city limits.
II Congress will at once provide this court with a
jury. many EMBELLISHMENTS and expensive SUPER
nuous litigation Will be avoided. II In order to
succeed In the present phase OF the controversy
the railroad must show that the Commissioners
have not power to make police regulation con-
corning the speed OF trains which shall have the
force Of law, It would seem that the old law which
limited the speed 10 six miles per hour is stil In
force and the railroad oy upsetting the police reg
ulation amendment extending the limit TO twelve
miles would dexterously remove itself from the
trying pan TO the fire.
