MUST PAY $5 PER WEEK. Court Orders This Sum for Six Weeks Paid Mrs. Philip Mone—Husband Appeals. Saturday merning Phillp Mone of Windham was before police court, charged with non-support. He was represented by Attorney Samuel B. Harvey, Mr. Mone was not put to plea. A demurrer was entered and overruled. Prosecuting Attorney B. Frank Bugbee then made a statement to the court. He sald the charge against Mone was for not supporting his wife and a minor child for a period of about a year. About two years agv Mrs, Mone started a divorce action against her husband. He filed a cross complaint and the matter was heard in the superior court. No decree was granted to either. At the time James M Smith was appointed guardian of the two: children. In that capacity he placed the son with Mone and the daughter with Mrs. Mone. Since that time Mone had supported the boy and Mrs, Mone the daughter. About six weeks ago, at his suggestion, Mrs. Mone with Mr. Smith went to Mone's house, and she asked Mone to take her back. Mone told her he did not think they could get along any better in the fature than they had in the past. He did not offer to give her any support. Prosecutor Bugbee said he had per- mitted the case to go along in the hope that the parties would eventually. gel together. Apparently there is no chance for that, as Mr. Mone has a divorce action in the courts that is all ready for trial Attorney Samuel B, Harvey said John Higgins on Myrtle avenue for a fews days the past w Daniel W.
