The grand Jury of the superior court was

terday afternoon, but spent its time upon
committee work and did not transact any
criminal business. The work done was IN

Clarence sheftall was tried and convict
ed in the city court yesterday for keeping
and operating a policy lottery. He plead
ed not guilty, and was ably defended by
Mai. p. w. Meldrim. After the verdict
Of guilty was rendered Judge Norwood
fined him $3.50 and costs, or sentenced him
10 spend six months in Jail. Maj. Meldrim
gave notice of a motion for new trial.
This is the second case in the city court
I'm which a party convicted of keeping a
policy lottery has been fined $3.50, the fine
before this time having been put at $500,
the minimum allowed by the law. This
is the first time, too, that Sheftall has
appeared before the court. There are sew
eral other cases in which the parties
charged with keeping policy lotteries have
been before the court, convicted and fined
before, some of them on two or three oc-
casions. It begins to appear that the in
tention of the court is to suppress the lot
terry business if there is any cirtue in the
law
