| A LOTTERY MAN IN TROUBLE--THE LIT
TIE JUG GAME.-A. j. Berry has been ex-
amined before United States Commissioner
Chahoon, and sent on to be indicted at the
next term of the circuit court, for doing the
business of lottery dealer without paying
the specific tax.
Some account of Mr.. Rerry's game and
his defence will be found below, in q COM
munication from Detective Alden to Com
missioner Delano. The Detective says:
Gone A. J. Berry, of this city, is en-
gagged in what he called the jug busi-
nees, and has been so engaged for a year or
two past. The game, as he explains it to
me, is carried on as follows Seventy six
| (76) marbles are put into q jug, each one is
numbered from one to seventy-six. Vic
tim pays any sum of money, from five cents
upwards, and takes a ticket for any num-
Der he may select. The marbles are sha-
ken up in the jug, and one is passed ont if
the number on the marble passed out is the
same as the number on the ticket, the JUG
owner pays him five cents for every cent
paid for the ticket.
"This business, under my understanding
Of the law, is lottery, and Mr.. Berry
liable for carrying it on without license.
I called on Mr.. Berry, and gave him my
opinion in regard to it, and upon the fol-
lowing day he submitted the matter to As
SCISSOR Hudson, who decided that he was
liable for the tax as lottery dealer, and
assessed him accordingly. Mr. John II.
Gilmer (Bcrry's attorney thinks that he
ought not to be assessed, inasmuch rs the
State law prohibits games of this kind, and
that it would put Mr.. Berry under the ne
cessity of pleading 4 state of facts in the
United States court which would convict
him under the State laws; that, therefore,
he is not liable. I fail to appreciate Mr..
Gilmer's argument, but have proposed tc
submit the matter to you for your deci-
sion."
The Commissioner, In reply, directs that
Berry be taxed as lottery ticket dealer,
and adds that the United States laws give
him no permission to conduct q lottery.
They simply require him to pay certain
taxes if he does conduct one; and the fact
TINT in conducting one he violates local law
is no defence against the payment Of such
| taxes

The FIGHT BETWEEN C0LLYER AND Do
uERTY.-At Norfolk on Wednesday eve
ming the representatives of these two men
met and arranged the preliminaries of their
proposed prize-fght. The fight will take
place in Virginia some day in October. 1t
will be for 81 900, each man putting up
$500, and the rules of the London Prize
Ring will govern the combatants. 4 for
felt of $50 has been deposited in the hands
of Frank Queen, of New York, and the fur
ther sum of $50 was deposited with one OF
our well-known sporting men after the arti-
cles of agreement were signed.
The Norfolk Herald says: "Collyer has
fought six battles-winning four of them.
He was victor in the fights with Bolster,
McGlade, Kelly, and won and lost one with
Barney Aaron. He was defeated in his
last fight with Edwards about year ago.
Collyer is the picture of good health, and
will make tough customer for his oppo-
nent.
"Charles Doherty is somewhat taller
than Collyer, is younger, quick in his
movements, and has head on him like
the late Yankee Sullivan. He is from
Richmond, and has been in but one battle
that with Hammond, on the York River
railroad, in which eighty-six rounds were
fought, lasting two hours and ten minutes,
when he was declared the victor.
"This fight promises to be one of the
best which has ever taken place, as it will
be fought at l26 pounds. Collyer has here
tofore always fought above his weight, but
in this fight he will be in fine condition"

he wished to know who did it. TO comply

and regret that did not wound higher up
than the foot. / was walking on top OF the

enclosure. | hailed him three times, and
receiving no answer | went to the watch

pile of pipe l let off at him. lie cXclaim-
ed Do not kill me- and scrambled over

shall shoot any person that comes inside
the fence at such late hour. Every person
who is consuming the water from the rescr-
