defendants of the crime of murder. His
proposals followed substantially the facts
above given relative to the history of the
crime.
J. l.. Glenn was the first witness called
and was on the stand for several hours.
His testimony was practically the same
as that given at the preliminary hearing.
G. ID. Miller, who went with Glenn to
the scene OF the crime, and William
Sheckler. the tesmster who hauled the
wounded man to Glenn's house, gave the
same testimony as at the hearing.
Mrs. j. l.. Glenn was the last witness
before adjournment. The defense OBJ
jected to certain portions of her testimony
and during the argument on the point
the jury was Withdrawn from the court
room. II was proposed to prove by her
conversation she heard between the
Strains in q bedroom in her house,
which would substsntiate the Common
wealth's claim that George Strain did the
cutting. The defense contended that the
declarations of a wife could not be used
against her husband or vice versa. The
court reserved its decision until this
morning.

o'clock, after an illness OF four months OF
Bright's disease. He was the son of the
late Artelnus j. and Mary Handy, and
was horn at Stewart Run, Aug. 10, 1899.
His father died just three weeks prior,
April 9th last. Reuben was a bright
young lad who had, by his manly ways
aud kindly manners, won the esteem
and affection of all who knew him, and
his death is deeply regretted in the com
munity where his short life was spent.

on Christmas day, 1900. was one of the
bright. wide-awake young lads of his
community, IN which he was general
