Gladys Bailey is an unmarried woman who resides in Furnas county. She filed a complaint charging Scott Hurtt with the paternity of a bastard child born to her July 12, 1915. She recovered a judgment for $1,200, from which he has appealed.

*824Plaintiff testified that she met defendant on the evening of October 2,1914, at a dance at Wilsonville, and.that after the dance was over she accepted his offer to escort her in his buggy to her father’s home, distant about 5 miles, and that on their way home the offense was committed. Defendant introduced testimony tending to prove that on the night in question he was at a party given by some friends in Beaver City, and he denied that he Avas in the company of Miss Bailey at any time during that night, or that he ever committed the offense charged. He admitted that he once escorted her from a dance at Wilsonville to her home, but he says it was about two weeks before the time named by her at the trial. The. testimony with respect to these discrepancies was all fairly submitted to the jury, and any doubt that may theretofore have existed on this point was dispelled by the verdict.

It is argued by defendant that the jury could not properly find from the testimony that the bastard child was born alive. This contention cannot prevail, for the obvious reason that the babe was at the county seat at the time of the trial, but was not in the courtroom. It would serve no good purpose to analyze the testimony at greater length. We find that it supports the verdict, and with that we are content.

Defendant contends that the court erred in instructing the jury that the plaintiff’s reputation for chastity was not a proper subject for their inquiry, and insists that “this should have been considered by the jury in judging her credibility as a witness.” On this point the jury were correctly informed that the chastity of the complaining witness was not one of the issues in the case. Clow v. Smith, 85 Neb. 668; State v. O’Rourke, 85 Neb. 639. He also argues'that •the instructions state the law incorrectly with respect to the credibility of the respective witnesses where the testimony conflicts on points that are material. This contention is obviously without merit in view of the explicit instruction No. 3, given evidently in pursuance of the provisions of section 361, Rev. St. 1913, and also in view of instruction No. 5 wherein the jury are correctly informed on the points to *825-which defendant calls onr attention. Nelson v. Spratt, 100 Neb. 690.

The court instructed the jury fully on all of the issues properly triable by it. Defendant requested no instructions, and, in view of those given, he cannot now be heard to urge that additional instructions should have been given.

Finding no reversible error, the judgment of the trial court is

Affirmed.
