lot Good Psker 1arse.

A man named Shelby, the otl er
day at Gold Hill shot Paul Le-
vesque in the arm because the lat
ter beat full hand for him with
four aces. Cur knowledge of the
nobler game Of poker warrants US
in asserting that Shelby was wrong.
Now if Mr.. Levesque had beaten
four aces for Mr.. Shee by with full
hand the latter would undoubtedly
have been justified in shooting the
former through the arm. abdomen,
or perhaps even the entrails. In
all civilized countries, however,
four aces are good against any full,
and no jury Of poker players in
Christendom would ever acquit
Mr.. Shelby under the eircum-
stances. The only possible chance
for a question would be the
proven fact that Mr.. Shelby held
All ace full. In that case the matter
would have to be decided upon the
local customs relating to the game.
and the verdict would depend upon
the number Of aces constituting
quorum in an average Gold Hill
deck of cards.

OF INTEREST 70 MINERS.

When . Relocation IL . Tres
The Supreme Court Of Colorado
has at last re-afirmed its former
decision that actual possession is
prima faeie evidence Of title, and
that entering upon premises in the
actual possession Of another for the
purpose Of performing the acts
necessary to constite location and
possession, amounts to trespass,
and cannot form the basis for the
acquisition Of title. Whether the
location of the party in possession
be valid or not, their possession is
sufficient to defeat . recovery by
the party entering to make . new
location. In this decision, the
principle Of possession being nine
points of the law" is maintained,
and miners should bear this in
mind when desiring to make reloca-
lions.
The same court also decided that
mine owners are not responsible
for recorders mistakes. A prior
location Of . mining claim is not
,nvalidated by a mistake of 4 re-
,order in recording such location by
. name somewhat different from
hat stated in the certificate Of To-
,ation.
