trial under an indictment which charges
him with killing his sister nearly year
ago. was presented today. The trial was
resumed at $40 O'Clock this morning be
fore Judge William B. Stevens, Of the
Superior Court, and it vas the opinion of
those who had followed the case with
more OF less attentin that the adjourn
ment from Friday should have enabled
the prosecution to prepare for more rapid
progress so that the hearing should be
| ended this week
neither or not all that Pittsiield's po-
lice chief knows is to be set forth on the
direct examination Of the Common
weaith's witnesses is a matter for conjec-
ture- 1t has been guessed that the Com
monweaith had expected to develop many
material facts by cross-examination, too,
so that no one here was willing to say to
day that the trial was certain to end by
Saturday next, especially since the de-
fendant-s side had not been outlined and
no indications had been afforded Of the
length of time it would take to present it
The defence is also pretty long on cross
examination It would surprise nobody if

Cunningham Wilson, on South Highlands. The Rev. Mr. Eu- gene Hawkins performed the ceremony, which was impressively solemnized in the drawing room, the decorations of which were in white roses and sweet peas of delicate tint. These were massed on the mantels and cabinets, the exquisite col brings showing amid quantities of old English ivy used in the decoration. This was caught in the lace draperies at the windows and entwined in the stairway in the reception hall. Here magnolias and cape jassamines shone white among the dark foliage and freighted the air with delicate fragrance
 Through this white and green aisle came the bridal couple. There were no at tendants and the ceremony was witnessed by only the immediate families.
 Miss Eubank's bridal gown was of white crepe de chine exquisitely fashioned, and her flowers were bridal roses, her bril- liant beauty never showing to greater ad- vantage than in her wedding gown.
 Shortly after the ceremony MT. and Mrs. Smith left for the railway station and started upon their wedding journey.
