5485.
    Powell v. The State.
    Decided March 26, 1914.
    'Accusation of gaming; from city' court of Griffin — Judge Flynt. December 20, 1913.
    
      Connor & Mills, for plaintiff in error.
    
      W. H. Beck, solicitor, contra.
   Russell, C. J.

The jury are the judges of the credibility of all the witnesses; and while the testimony of some of the witnesses for the State is insufficient to authorize the conviction of the accused, one witness positively testified that the' accused participated in a game of cards played for money. There being, therefore, evidence'to support the verdict, and the trial judge being satisfied therewith, the judgment refusing a new trial will not be reversed.

Judgment affirmed.

Roan, J., absent.
