A..' Mi.lK.it. .hiiiRPil with abandon ment of his wife. Solicitor Small then took up the case of Kd?ar Williams. charged with violation of tin* new State bus law. Wil liams is aeeuscd of failure to take out proper llceti.se. ? MitlK'-ti was on the stand for an hour o r more Monday after noon. and at the opening of Su- ? prrior Court Tuesday morning, he was reeulbd on redirect examina tion. testifying he wrote his wife, asking her to join him in New Jersey while he was employed in the Coast Cita rd nervier there., hut she refused to no. I?at.-r, Mrs. Midget! was re called to the stand by the State, atul denied having rcciv.'d any ; #ueli invitation from her husband during his employment in New Jersey. She also identified as in Midgeit's hand-writing parts of a J* tier which he denied having written. This letter referred to an altercation between j\lld<:ett and the officei in chai'gc of the Coast (iuaid station at \.l?ich he worked, slating that Midgett had. tendered liiti resignation from the service, and that it had been accepted. Mrs. Midget! testified also that her allowance Irom her hushat.d ?|opii'*df after sin- received the let ter iu qu*'Ht ion, and that it was resumed only i-.fter she had made, complaint to the Coast Guard. I'.lijah Hubbard, of Currituck, and N. T. Aydletl. of this city.' took ? I he stand as character wit nesses for tho defendant, both les-' t trying his general reputation was good before he got into his pres ent difficult it s. Taking of evidence in the Midg ett case, begun with the testi mony of Mrs. Mldgett before the noon recess, dragged through the afternoon until C, o'clock, and still war. not completed. Much soiled linen was dragged forth for M lie curious court crowd to paw over, and draw such Inferences as they might. It was brought out. for instanc. that Mrs. Midget! suspected an other woman ? n married woman in New Jersey- -of bring a. factor in her husband's alleged failure to provide for her to the best of his ability. This woman. Mldgett admitted while he wns oil the stand, visited him while he wa.-r in jail here, awaiting trial. Midn ett replied negatively to Solicitor Small's question whether she had kissed him during her visit, and den ie ^ that uny improper r? la tiomliip existed between them at any time. Solicitor Small wrung from the defendant a reluctant admission that his aged father had had to mortgage his farm to raise $500 bond which Mldgelt had default til by failure to appear a! the last term of Superior Court. II y way of explanation, Midgett. asserted he was ill at the time thai !erni of com! was held, and Iherefore could not come, lie was arrested subsequently in Capo May. New .-.Jersey, and was lodged in Jail here to await trial at the present court term. The defendant replied nega!lve Hy also to a quesiion whether ho had infected his wife with an ail ment regarded as not conlracied usually except as a result of mari tal Infidelity. All women and chil dren were excluded from the courtroom during tlila phase of tile cross-examination of the de fendant. ? Mrs. A. P. linger*, of Norfolk, testified she took care of Mrs. Mldgett during a ten-day period beginning August 27. 1 2 4 . when a baby was born to her, and as serted that during that period Mldgett paid few visits to his wife, provided no clothing for the liifani, did not pay the doctor's hill, and l? nd< red her no recom pense for her services. In Ihls last connection, she added that her services were entirely volun tary. The hearing of the case was marked with frequent clashes be tween W. I. Halstead, attorney for the defendant, and counsel for the State. Mr. Halstead contend ed that much of tho testimony of fered by the State was ^compe tent for various reanons. In the main. Judge Calvert overruled his objections. As evidence of his willlngmss to asniuuc hla proper obligation*. Mldgett, on direct examination, said he was quite willing to live with his wife and support her as hem he could. Mrs. Mldgett, how ever. appeared little Inclined to felurn to him, tcsiifylng ihMt he had been unfaithful to her. and . had contributed nothing to her * support for many month*.

IlKQl'IREMKNTS ARE NOT UNREASONABLE IS111 God llfals Willi Many 1'nmift (iimI)Ii' Mfti, IWbimi ExnimeKst Itcv. J. C, CSrif fin preached last night at the Free Will Rapt 1st church on the text: "Come now. let tis reason together; though your sins he us scarlet they shall he an white as snow." He said in part : "God la reasonable ? nothing unreasonable about him -his re quirements are reasonable. Rut he deals with many unreasonable men. men who 6*?y God in this modern day. This will send one to premature grave and u demon's hell. Reason with him while you have reuaonlng powers. I've heard men say 1 believe In Jesus Christ. ? you don't do It; if you did you would he saved from your damn able ways. Men, 1 declare that there In a time when God Maya stop. He said it to Sodom. He said it to Nlnevah. You must be willing for him to reason with, .you. Evangelists. pastors. mis sionaries and angels too. if they could be combined with the forces, can't make you be a Christian un less you are willing. Rut they can tnuke you wish you had. If it were possible to pull back the cov er of the regions of the damned and ask why you are there? The only answer would be I would not reason with God nor let him reason with me. "If you will let him. God will save you In spite of all thut satan can do. Let the Lord straighten you up at\d clan iv you up and make you reasonable and you will not want to participate In the things that degrade. When you reason with God you tnust come clean put down everything that !s din honest. I've known people to pay; their grocery bill and house rent when they got religion. It's rea sonable for yon to confess your sins to God for that is the only way for you to get forgiveness." DEFENSE RESTS IN TRIAL FOR MURDER Koblesvllle. Ind.. Nov 10.?
