All who were fortunate enough to be
present at the Wilbur literary society's
meeting last Saturday night report jolly
anu interesting time. The ladies of that
vicinity have always been noted for taste
and excellence in culinary skill, and the
supper served on this occasion, it is said,
takes none of the lustre from their fame.
The program exceeded all expectations,
and its rendition would have been credit
able to old professionals. Beeson's orciles-
ira was one of the attractions, and will be
remembered as a rare treat by the Will
burn people.

Judge Fitzsimons's Decision in

Note Given for a Gambling Debt

Lawyer Hummel Gets an Opinion
of Considerable Interest.

A decision Of much interest to book
makers and followers Of the races was
rendered by Judge Fitzslmons, of the
city Court. to-day.
The action was brought by Robert @.
Irving against Joseph A.. Britton, on a
note for S$cj.' This note, with two 9th.
ers. was given for a previous note for
81 ,0So, which had been given in payment
of a bet rad at the Morris Park race
track several years ago, it is claimed.
Britton refused payment on the ground
that 1t was a gambling debt.
Judge Fit2simons gave judgment to
Irving. In his opinion he says:
"Eorse racing has never been CON
demned by any law of this State, but
pool-selling has. In 1887 the Legislature
deemed 1t eXpedient to permit tho sale OF
pools on certain duly Incorporated tracks
at certain seasons. The Legislature had
the right to TX the place and time dur
ing which such gaming could be carried
on"
Therefore. the Judge holds that a bet
made at the time and place prescribed
by the law is Legal.
