1t lisa common thing for q book

real life, but it is not often that real
life becomes the very incarnation,
as it were, of book or drama on the
stage.
Yet this is precisely what hap
pened in the great city of New York
last year, in the TerranOva case.
The crimes and life story OF the little
Italian girl were identical with those
OF the heroine in Thomas Hardy's
famous novel and play, "Tess of
the D'Urbervilles." This maid of
realty stabbed to death those who
had sullied her honor, and had
caused her husband to put her away
from him. She made no attempt to
escape bat patiently surrendered to
the law, and awaited the outcome
Of justice. This in turn was identi-
cal tlthe neyelist's story. In a
dramatic trial that began on May
l4th of last. year, lasted for over a
month and resulted in q verdict for
acquittal, the entire attention of the
