The novel spectacle of non-support case being tried before Judge George w. Wheeler and jury in the criminal superior court was witnessed We'd neSday. It was the case of Michael F. Carmody of Newtown, charged with having neglected his wife, Bridget Carmody, from January l to April 2. It took the jury about quarter of an hour, after listening to the evidence, to bring in verdict of not guilty and to free CarmodY. It might have been just as we'll if the state had discharged the accused before the trial, for. there was practically no case against him. Prosecutor c. Fl. NorthrOp of New town, however, wanted to try his hand as representative of the state and he would not consent to having CarmOdy released. The whole case against him was knocked out when Attorney c. A. Mullen, counsel for the accused, asked Mrs Carmody if she didn't have S2O0 in the bank at the present time. She re- fused point blank to reply to the question but after Judge Wheeler had logged her Obstinacy a little she ad- mitted such was the truth. CarmOdy testified that he had been out of work for some time and that he always worked when found employment. The jury decided that woman with S2O0 in the bank was in no danger of starv- ing and so freed the prisoner.|[ Bridge port Standard.

Studied by the Artist.

zone Of the greatest difficulties in
art" remarked critic, is to get ones
facts right, and for this you have to
go not to art, but to the people who
understand the things represented.
Il received my first lesson in this
direction when, as a youth, l painted
a coast scene with a ship in the fore
ground. 1t was highly praised by all
who saw it, with the exception of an
old seaman, who, when he examined
the rigging, politely turned aside to
conceal his amusement. No ship, he
explained, could possibly have gone to
sea with the ropes and tackle arranged
as in my picture. So l had to humble
myself to learn to draw reeving-
blocks, shrouds, yards, and other por-
tions of q ships rigging as they really
are.
But it is not always possible to be
true to fact.
Take, for instance. a typical picture
which represents a herd of self-deny-
ing cattle grazing in meadow where
the herbage is of the scantiest, while
near at hand are unprotected fields of
grain into which they could walk at
will. Why did not the painter include
in his picture the fences which ac-
tualIy surrounded the corn fields?
Simply because they would have spoilt
the composition, and consequently
reality had to be sacrificed to the de-
mands Of art"
