FOR STEALING CATTLE.
Two More Offenders to Be Tried at
Vernal

Verna1. March 14-Tom Mckee, Tom
Meggerson, Joe Steinaker and Tex
King were given preliminary hearing
today in Justice Packs court on the
charge Of cattle stealing, which resulted
in Mckee, MeggersOn and Steinaker
being held in the sum of $1,000 each to
answer to the district court. The evil
dence tended TO show that Meggerson
was not directly implicated, and the
county attorney recommended that he
be discharged. He was held as a wit
ness, however, for the prosecution, and
placed upon the stand The evidence
tended to implicate other parties, and
more arrests may follow.
Erwin Caldwell, the boy who made the
gun play at the students ball Friday
night, was brought before Justice Pack
today and found guilty of disturbing
the peace. Sentence will be pronounced
tomorrow.

not some sort of lottery, tomboIa or wheel
of fortune. Even the regattas and horse
races and moonlight excursions that are
held throughout the province would be con-
sidered incomplete unless there was soma
device for trying ones luck In many of
these cases the provincial police interfere
and close up the games. but from time i'm
memorial 1t has been a law that at any
charitable entertainment a permit can be
obtained from the authorities to hold a lot
terry or tombola, or to have any of the thou
sand and one devices VIII reby money is
coaxed out of the visitors pockets with
promises of chances TO Win things worth
several times the money invested.
About six years ago some enterprisng in
dividualS came to the conclusion that If the
law permitted this sort of thing On a small
scale there was no reason why IL should
not be permitted wholesale. Therefore they
laid their plans to obtain a charter from
the Legislature Of the province of Quebec
for the holding of a charitable lottery
Money was freely offered for votes and all
sorts of combinations were made to have
the scheme succeed. large amount was
offered to the party in power for campaign
expenses, and it is said that the money was
actually paid beforehand. When 1t came to
Il vote, however. the scheme did not pass.
The lottery was to have been in connection
with a free art institute. where instruction
was tn De given TO INDECENT but talented
persons. Afterward, however, the charter
was granted by an order of the lieutaa-
ant governor in council.
This was the forerunner of the i've sirni-
lar institutions which now exist in Non
treal, and which thus far notwithstanding
the eff rts of the Citizens League, have
f1ourished openly. The reason for this is
that the provincial End dominion laws clash
on this point of gambling and lotteries
There seems little doubt, however, that at
the next session of parliament n bill will be
introduced to abolish The establishments. AT
present there are five, all of them being
supposed to run for some charitable pur-
pose, and all of them actually paying a
percentage of their receipts to charitable
institutions. Their places Of business are
