! beside her counsel in Judge Becher's
court, her eyes hidden behind dark spec
tacles, she presented the appearance of an
ordinary, everyday, mOdeSt-l0oking and
well-demeanored woman.
Mrs. Shattuck was placed on her trial
for murder yesterday. In spite of the fact
that the Fredericks trial was going on in
another court. there was large attend
ance of spectators, and, as the trial pro-
ceeds. it is likely that keen public interest
will be aroused again over the cireum-
stances surrounding the tragedy.
Beside her in court sat her aged other,
silent and sorrowful. while Truly Shat

count tue shooting occurred, occupied
seat in court during the early part of the
proceedings. The party was accompanied
by Thomas j. Lennon, attorney for the de-

Quoted by Assistant District Attorney
Edgar d. Peixotto.
A special venire at jurors had been sum-
moned TO attend, ana the work of selec-
ton was proceeded with. Mr.. Peixoito
recounted the circumstances of the case
for the benefit of the jury. He told how
that the intimacy of Harry Poole with the
accused woman's daughter had been a
source of great trouble TO Mrs. Shattuck,
and he described how that on the night

That same morning Mrs. Shattuek in

as she very much wanted to see him.
Harry obeyed the missive. and went to
Mrs. Shattuck's house, only to be shot
down and killed in cold blood by the angry
woman who had found herself in the dock
as the consequence of her crime. In cou-
elusion Mr.. Peixotto said that the whole
circumstances pointed to the crime as hav-
ing been deliberately planned and conn.,
mltted in cold blood. and on that account
he would ask the jury to render verdict
Of murder in the first degree.
Then Attorney Lennon had his turn aud

He said that it would be his business to

would accept no man as Juror who did

thought was the ruin of her daughter, and
in her despair she shot down the author
of her and her daughters unhappiness.
The examination of taesmen proved a
laborious task. and when the days pro-

accepted out of twenty-five examined. The
three accepted so far are: z. +. Patrick, Z.

sole heir, ss the next of kin was only a
second cousin.
When the news was broken TO the
itinerant his joy knew no bounds. and he
declared that he would forthwith seek a
lawyer and place the case in his hands.
II is a fact that Edward received more
educational advantages than either of the

They were born in Mitchelstown, County

where they were employed in a large dry

was that they were proprietors of q large

ALI these years Edward remained in

pervisors Offering to put in plant for the
disposal of the city's garbage. on one of
two plans, either the city 10 own it, or TO

The plant complete can be put in for the
city for S1o5o00, and it will have a ca
pacity of 125 tons of garbage daily. The
owner OF the patent claims that the plant
would be almost self-supporting, as the
grease, which is extracted by the naphtha
process, has commercial value Of 3115
cents pound, and the dry garbage, after
1t is deodoriZed and is thoroughly disl1-
fected. sells for from So to S15 ton.
Ii the city gives Mr.. Lighthall an exclu-
sive contract for 20 years he will put in
the plant himself. and dispose of the gar
bage at 60 cents ton.
